Chapter 373

Yi Yujian grinned warmly: “How did you know about my fainting spell in court? It was all an act. You’re a reporter, you should know how to write a news story, right? Come over here and help me review this news story.”

Ye Xingguang was confused: “Pretending to faint, what’s that all about?”

“Just playing around.”

After saying that, Yi Yujian pulled her towards a staff member who was busy writing a news story.

Ye Xingguang didn’t have the mind to look at the news story at that moment. All she could think about was her family’s major headache being in jail and her needing to rescue him.

Reading her anxious expression, Yi Yujian patted her shoulder: “Don’t worry, you won’t have to endure an empty home, living like a widow for three years.”

“What do you mean?”

Ye Xingguang blushed. It wasn’t what she had in mind.

“Just help me look over this news story first.”

After saying that, Yi Yujian got called away by someone.

She wanted to chase after him for more information, but a staff member stopped her, pleading, “Miss Ye, could you please look over this for me? I’m not a professional. Sister Chen who usually writes our news stories is sick with a fever from overworking and went to rest. I really can’t do it.”

“…Alright.”

In the end, despite being full of questions, she realized she had no choice when her big brother’s wife asked for help. So she sat down to review and edit the news copy, becoming so preoccupied that she could hardly spare a moment.

She revised the copy several times. After it was ready, she printed it out and handed it to Lin Nan to review. Lin Nan reviewed it over and over, unsatisfied, tossing it back to her to revise. He was even stricter and harsher than her editors at the station, nitpicking like nothing she had ever experienced before.

Finally the draft was accepted, and she sent it out to various media outlets. She thought she might finally have a moment to go use the bathroom, only to discover that Lin Nan found her editing skills quite handy and handed her another speech to edit.

The speech was actually for a presidential campaign rally.

Could it be that Ye Shiting might still be able to continue his presidential bid?

As she was halfway through editing, a staff member came in distributing boxed meals. She also accepted a box.

Yi Yujian also carried a box meal, walking towards her, and asked, “Sis, are you free tomorrow night?”

“What’s up?”

“There’s a campaign rally tomorrow night for the presidential election. If you don’t mind, could you perform a song on stage? The voters are quite curious about the Carp Girl, and you can sing. I’ve reserved a performance slot for you.”

“What?”

Yi Yujian said, “The program was set more than a month ago, and we initially reserved a singing slot for Xia Yanyan. But now, I don’t want to see her. At this time, famous singers are being invited by presidential candidates to attend their campaign rallies, but we couldn’t find a suitable replacement singer on such short notice. You received great feedback from your performance at the presidential palace dinner, and I believe many people would be drawn to attend if they knew you were performing tomorrow night.”

She was to take Xia Yanyan’s spot? Just for that, Ye Xingguang felt she had no choice, it was her duty!

“Alright, I’ll sing, but are you sure that big brother is still eligible to run for president? Even though the public is supportive and netizens are petitioning, hasn’t big brother been permanently stripped of his political rights? The netizens’ petitions should be useless, right?”

Yi Yujian grinned mysteriously and warmly: “You’ll find out tomorrow! Just sing well tomorrow night, and if you do a good job, I’ll return your precious little brother to you. So then you can cuddle him as your pillow as you sleep.”
