Chapter 357: Fired Squid
When a dim light appeared on the horizon, Ji Yun finally fell into a drowsy sleep. She felt that the night was extremely unstable, but she didn't know that this was more like an omen.
The next day, Ji Yun was woken up by the editor's phone call. The hangover from the previous night gave Ji Yun a splitting headache. He just wanted to cover himself with a quilt and fall asleep. However, the ringing sound of the phone was endless, like
It sounded like a soul-killing thing, and it kept ringing, making Ji Yun's heart feel a little uncomfortable.
Who is it that disturbs people’s dreams so early in the morning?
Ji Yun struggled to stretch out his hand from under the quilt and grabbed the mobile phone beside him. The name of the editor-in-chief was particularly prominent on the screen, but Ji Yun only glanced at it and reluctantly picked it up after a while.
The editor-in-chief's attitude towards her has changed a lot in the past few days. Whether on the phone or face to face, her tone is very friendly. She changed from her bossy and nostril-like look before. Ji Yun thought it would be the same this time.
, answered the phone and gave a lazy greeting.
"Editor-in-Chief? What's going on this early in the morning?"
There was a pause, and then an obviously angry voice sounded.
"Early in the morning? Ji Yun, are you blind? What time is it? Tell me it's early in the morning!"
Ji Yun was stunned by the editor's yelling, and for a while he couldn't react.
But even though her mind was not yet clear, Ji Yun had spent a lot of time in the workplace after all, and she still had some sensitivity. She had an intuition that something had happened.
But she couldn't figure out what exactly happened.
For a moment, Ji Yun had several thoughts running through his mind.
Did this old man lose another big-name match yesterday? Or is his married life not harmonious?
Or what happened to the magazine?
Because the editor-in-chief had already been mad at Ji Yun before and didn't take her seriously, so whenever something went wrong at work or even in life, he would just use Ji Yun as a punching bag. Because of this, Ji Yun didn't know how to meet her.
I have received cold looks from the editor many times, but I can only swallow my anger.
At that time, I had no ability and had no achievements, and there was nothing I could do if others looked down upon me.
But such a phenomenon has become rare these days, and Ji Yun doesn't know why.
Ever since I reported the incident between Ye Shengxiao and her father Ye Tingyu, the editor's attitude towards her has undergone a 360-degree turn that is visible to the naked eye!
What the hell is going on today?
Ji Yun really couldn't think of it, but he didn't dare to anger the editor-in-chief further, so he sat up and spoke in a low voice.
"Editor-in-Chief, what's the matter with you? I'm really sorry. I've had a bit of a cold these past two days, so I woke up late today. Is it because the magazine has news to run? Don't worry, I'll pack up right now and be there!
"
Ji Yun habitually lowers her posture. As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. After so many years in the workplace, nodding and bending to pretend to be a grandchild has been her state most of the time.
Normally at times like this, the other party would see her as okay and not so tough. However, what Ji Yun didn't expect was that this time the situation must be completely different from usual.
The editor's tone was full of impatience and disgust, and his voice was rough and high-pitched.
"Don't come, I can't accommodate you here anymore!"
Ji Yun was stunned when he heard this, and then a bad premonition filled his heart.
Listen to this... is that old man going to fire himself?
It's inexplicable. Is it because I didn't receive the call in time? Didn't you ask me to take a vacation?
Ji Yun really wanted to roll his eyes, but the first priority was to lower his head first.
She smiled dryly and apologized repeatedly, "Chief... Editor-in-Chief, please... don't be angry first. I apologize to you first. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have answered your call so late. I'm very grateful.
You gave me a holiday, but you blame me for being lazy. I...I should have gone to the magazine earlier. Editor-in-Chief, I really know my mistake. Can I rush there now?"
Ji Yun's mind was in a state of confusion, and his mouth was dry and he talked a lot, but he remained unmoved.
"I said you don't need to come, don't you understand? I'll say it clearly again, you, Ji Yun, have been fired from the magazine. Not only today, you will not be welcome here in the future!"
After speaking, before Ji Yun could react, he had already put down the phone with a "pop" sound.
A disconnected "beep" sound came from the receiver of the mobile phone, and Ji Yun looked at the phone in confusion.
What is going on? What did you do wrong?
Is the editor-in-chief great? Can the editor-in-chief fire people without explanation or even give a reason?
After being stunned and angry, Ji Yun was really unwilling to give up, so he grabbed his cell phone and dialed back.
No matter what, she must ask for an explanation!
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about this time. If it hadn’t been for her report, would it have attracted so much attention to the magazine? Why, now that the account is popular, is it necessary to get rid of it?
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered. It was clear that the person on the other end didn't want to talk to her anymore.
"What else is there? What are you doing on the phone after you've been fired?"
Ji Yun wanted to be more forceful, but he opened his mouth and shrank back.
"Chief...Editor, I'm sorry to bother you again, but you...you fired me for no reason. I have to know the reason. Editor-in-Chief, look at what I've done under you.
It's been a long time, if you do something wrong or something bad, just tell me directly, no... you can't scare me like that!"
Thinking that this old man might just be scaring him, Ji Yun started to lick his face and feel miserable.
"Chief Editor, you also know my current situation. I am helpless in this huge city of Los Angeles and have no savings. If you fire me right now, I won't even be able to eat.
Get up! I know you have always been very kind to the young people below. During this time in the magazine, I also regarded you as my big brother. You don’t want me to live on the street, right? "
Ji Yun said a lot of things that were embarrassing, complimentary and flattering.
The editor-in-chief of the magazine over there paused when he heard this. Just when Ji Yun thought there was finally a turn for the better, a basin of cold water was poured on his head.
"Don't talk to me like this here. I won't accept your behavior. You are doing it yourself. Who told you to provoke those who shouldn't be provoked?"
The editor-in-chief was furious.
"I warned you before and told you to be careful when posting things. You're so stupid. You dare to tell me that you have rich experience with this little skill. This time you exposed yourself and almost lost the magazine.
