The location of Jinling Television Station is in the very center of the city, still a bit far from Qin Xuan's villa.

The weather forecast predicted thunderstorms in the morning, but at this time it was only light rain drizzling, which made driving convenient. Before long, a sleek Chevrolet pulled up in front of the office building of Jinling Television Station.

"Let's go. My brother should be there now."

Su Muqing smiled as she got out of the car.

Qin Xuan followed suit, gazing toward Jinling Television Station. It was a towering high-rise of dozens of stories, very imposing. Since it was business hours, quite a few people came and went at the entrance, the place bustling with activity.

But soon Qin Xuan frowned.

He saw a girl in a skirt standing at the entrance of Jinling Television Station, her face showing hesitation, as if something made her indecisive.

That girl was the cashier he had met last night at dinner, Ye Xiaoyu.

Yesterday Su Muqing had asked her to come to Jinling Television Station for an interview, and she had indeed arrived quite early.

"Isn't that Ye Xiaoyu?"

Su Muqing spotted her as well, a flicker of surprise in her eyes, and quickly walked over to greet her: "Ye Xiaoyu?"

The girl jumped at the sound, turning her head in alarm. When she saw Su Muqing and Qin Xuan, she could not help patting her chest: "So it's Sister Su."

"Yes. What are you doing here?"

Su Muqing walked up and asked.

"I came for the interview as we agreed, before eight o'clock..." Ye Xiaoyu said, looking worried, "But just now on the road, a car splashed water from the pond onto my skirt, making it very dirty. I didn't dare to go in."

The two of them glanced down at the hem of her skirt. Sure enough, one side was splattered with a large patch of mud, staining the once-beautiful white skirt.

"Why are you so careless? Did you walk here?"

Su Muqing frowned, asking with concern. For a girl, neat attire during an interview was an important consideration. Entering like this would indeed be inappropriate.

"Um. To save money, I had no choice but to walk." Ye Xiaoyu looked downcast, dejected. "Sister Su, if it's not possible, I won't go in."

"Saving money? Xiaoyu, do you have financial difficulties lately?"

Su Muqing asked.

"Sister Su, I'm fine." Ye Xiaoyu shook her head resolutely.

"Xiaoyu, if you have any difficulties, tell sister, all right?" Su Muqing held her arm and smiled. "As long as it's not a major problem, sister will help you."

Ye Xiaoyu pursed her lips without speaking.

Su Muqing urged her repeatedly, and only then did Ye Xiaoyu hesitate to say, "I worked at that restaurant before. The boss didn't pay the wages for two and a half months..."

"What?"

Su Muqing frowned.

"Sister Su, thank you for giving me this interview opportunity... You all have something to attend to first. I'll leave now." Ye Xiaoyu held back her tears, turned, and wanted to leave. The mud patch on her pristine white skirt was particularly glaring.

"Wait, Xiaoyu. We'll help you with this matter. Come up with us first. You can't miss the interview." Su Muqing's heart softened with pity, more determined than ever to help her.

"Ah? Sister Su, but my skirt is like this..."

Ye Xiaoyu was extremely embarrassed.

"It's fine. Come along."

Su Muqing took her hand and walked toward the television station building, saying to Qin Xuan, "Qin Xuan, why don't you wait in the lobby. I'll take her to the restroom to clean the skirt as much as possible."

"Alright, you go ahead. Be careful on the way."

Qin Xuan waved his hand.

At that moment he was thinking about the restaurant boss from last night, who had actually withheld two months of wages without paying, having no conscience at all. Why were there so many shameless people in the secular world now?

This Ye Xiaoyu was truly unlucky. It was fortunate that she had met Su Muqing.

Following the two women into the lobby, Qin Xuan noticed that many men in the passing crowd were staring at Su Muqing. As the major shareholder of Jinling Television Station, Su Muqing's beauty had long been familiar to all the staff in the building.

However, when they saw Su Muqing holding Ye Xiaoyu's hand, each of them cast somewhat contemptuous glances.

In fact, Ye Xiaoyu was quite pretty. Though not as stunning as Su Muqing, she was absolutely top-class in her beauty. It was just that the men hadn't seen her face, only the mud patch on the side of her white skirt.

If Su Muqing had not been holding her hand, someone would have driven her away long ago.

Suddenly, a fashionable woman with smoky makeup stepped out of the elevator. With a superior gaze, she glanced at Ye Xiaoyu, who had just entered the restroom, and frowned.

"Hey, let me ask you, who is that woman just now?"

Qin Xuan was close, and the smoky makeup woman asked directly.

"The one coming for the interview."

Qin Xuan answered casually, glanced at the woman, and shook his head.

In his opinion, although this woman was dressed fashionably, in terms of appearance she was far inferior to Su Muqing, Dongfang Qingwan, and others. Even Ye Xiaoyu with light makeup was much prettier than her.

"Interview?" The woman's brows furrowed tighter. "This is Jinling Television Station. How come anyone can come for an interview? What about you, are you here for an interview too?"

"No."

Qin Xuan shook his head again.

"Oh? Then are you a guest on which program?"

The smoky makeup woman looked somewhat surprised. In her view, a man in a long robe coming to Jinling Television Station was mostly a guest invited for some program.

"Not that either."

Qin Xuan continued shaking his head.

"Then what are you here for? This is Jinling Television Station; not everyone can just wander around. If you have nothing to do, hurry out." The smoky makeup woman started driving him away.

Qin Xuan glanced at her indifferently, ignoring her.

"Good morning, Manager Jiang."

"Good morning, Manager Jiang."

When the staff passed by, they all greeted the smoky makeup woman, but she completely ignored them, as if she were superior.

Seeing Qin Xuan not moving, the smoky makeup woman frowned, waved at the entrance, "Where's the security guard? Send two to persuade him to leave."

After speaking, without looking at Qin Xuan at all, she walked out of the building. In her view, there was no need to waste her time because of Qin Xuan.

The two security guards heard the noise and walked toward Qin Xuan, making him find it somewhat amusing. How could anything happen in the secular world?

"Excuse me, sir. If you have nothing to do, please leave the building and don't affect the work of the television station." The older security guard said politely.

"I'm here to find someone. I'll go up soon."

Seeing his attitude was quite good, Qin Xuan's attitude was also good.

"Find who?"

The younger security guard became impatient and asked, glaring.

"Su Mubai."

Qin Xuan answered.

"Su... haha, kid, are you joking?" The young security guard laughed. "Hurry up and leave, otherwise if Manager Jiang comes back, you'll have a good time."

"I am indeed here to find him."

Qin Xuan frowned.

Just then, Su Muqing's voice came from behind: "What's going on here?"
