Avoid the Protagonist! - Chapter 100

Ch.100 I’m Not Familiar with Her (1)

The second day Xin Siyue went to work, she was lacking in energy. After lunch, she was clearly on the verge of falling asleep. She went to the bathroom to rinse her face and to apply some more makeup. When she returned to her office, the beautiful Miss Lu gracefully walked over with her ten centimeters high high heels. She said to Xin Siyue, “The Chief Editor wants you to go over.”

“What?” Xin Siyue was confused why the Chief Editor would ask for the beautiful Miss Lu to come call her. People should know that the beautiful Miss Lu was the famous golden host in interview programs. All the celebrities and famous people’s interviews in the TV station were done by her.

When Xin Siyue hadn’t moved, the beautiful Miss Lu urged her, “Hurry up. I don’t have time to waste on something like this!”

Although Xin Siyue rarely talked to her, she had heard about her from her other colleagues. She knew that she was a rude and unreasonable person so she didn’t bother to argue with her.

On the way to the Chief Editor’s office, Xin Siyue saw the beautiful Miss Lu heading for the same place. She became more and more curious. What was the matter?

When Xin Siyue received the project plan for this week’s interview episode, she looked shockingly at the Chief Editor. “Chief Editor, what is this?”

“Time-wise, we might be hurrying it but I believe in your ability, Siyue.”

“Chief Editor, what are you trying to say?” Xin Siyue was faintly worried.

“It’s what you think. Sheng Wenyang is a famous designer from the jewelry industry. From what I know, she returned two days ago. It was very surprising that we were able to set an appointment for the interview easily. However, Designer Sheng said that she agreed to the interview but wanted someone familiar as her partner. She even mentioned your name, hoping you can host this episode. We already proofread the initial draft for the questions to be asked during the interview. When you record this tonight, you just need to talk according to the script.”

Xin Siyue hesitated, “No, Chief Editor, I’m not really familiar with Sheng Wenyang.” Plus, don’t mention that they weren’t familiar. They hadn’t spoken a sentence with one another in private before. At most, she introduced her appearance on stage during the anniversary of the college. In addition, it’s not that she was unfamiliar with her. In the original book, even before the female lead returned, she hadn’t seen her.

Where did Sheng Wenyang get the illusion that they were familiar with each other?

Her intuition told her it was the main culprit, Chen Sinan.

Sheng Wenyang must’ve detected something! That is definitely what happened!

She concentrated on analyzing this when she heard Miss Lu say, “Host Xin, are you trying to make excuses? Ever since I entered the TV Station and took over this program, I had no intentions of letting other hosts host this. If it wasn’t for your friend who wanted you to host this episode, you think that I would look upon you based on your qualifications, and feel comfortable in giving you control over the program?”

Ever since Xin Siyue debuted and entered the hosting career, she never hosted interviewing programs. But just because she never tried it before doesn’t mean she was willing to be looked down upon by other people!

“Host Lu, why must you speak like this?” When Xin Siyue finished, she turned her head around to reply to the Chief Editor without looking at her expression. “I will do my best on this episode’s program!”

The Chief Editor smiled and nodded his head. “Ok, I believe in your abilities. Quickly prepare for this. Remember to change your clothes and dress yourself up after dinner, which is around six pm.”

“Ok, thank you Chief Editor.”

When Xin Siyue was about to turn and leave, she heard Miss Lu humph. She was infuriated and wanted to walk around her. When she detected Miss Lu’s high heels kicking forward, wanting to trip her, Xin Siyue agily dodged this.

Xin Siyue turned around and glared coldly at her. Then, she left without looking back.

When she returned to her office, she felt her scalp going numb from looking at the rough draft.
