Seeing that it was Li Zhen who was looking for him, Ma Jinshan smiled brightly.

"There are several jobs looking for you. It just so happened that you came here to see if you can take them."

Ma Jinshan asked Li Zhen to come in as he spoke.

Li Zhen thought for a moment, and if he wanted anything from others, he had to take jobs. It would be better to take on a few short-term jobs to cope with it, and then followed Ma Jinshan to the editorial office.

Ma Jinshan was the editor-in-chief and had a separate office. He asked Li Zhen to go in and the back door was ajar.

Sitting on both sides of the desk, Ma Jinshan took out several pieces of information and gave them to Li Zhen.

Li Zhen took it and looked at it. There were seven copies in total. Three took too long, two took at least a week in total, and two could be completed on the spot.

"I'm busy recently and it's going to take a long time so I won't answer the call for the time being. I can only pick up two calls."

Ma Jinshan smiled and nodded, "There's no need to rush these things. I've been told that you can wait for a year."

She had to accept it. Li Zhen lowered his eyes, feeling like he was being forced.

However, Li Zhen is the kind of person who takes things easy and won't have any mood swings when forced. At most, he just thinks about how to reduce the discomfort.

"If you are really embarrassed, you don't have to accept these two jobs."

With that said, Ma Jinshan took away two copies, and Li Zhen glanced at them. They were the two copies that could be completed on the spot.

She has been working here in Ma Jinshan for almost eight years. Ma Jinshan knows very well what kind of work is good and what is bad. Li Zhen raised his lips and smiled.

"Thank you, Editor Ma."

Ma Jinshan said with a natural expression, "This is nothing. Master Liu introduced you in the first place. Even for Master Liu's sake, I can't possibly tire you."

Hearing this, Li Zhen took out the two most time-consuming ones and handed them to Ma Jinshan.

"Thank you very much, Editor Ma, for taking care of me."

Ma Jinshan's expression froze for a moment, and when he saw that Li Zhen had no intention of giving in, he had no choice but to reach out and take it.

Li Zhen flipped the two copies in his hand back and forth and said, "I may not be able to take on the job in the future, so it's better for Editor Ma to hire someone else. These two copies are easier to complete, so it's best to use them as a stepping stone."

With that said, Li Zhen let go, and two pieces of information fell lightly on the table in front of Ma Jinshan.

Li Zhen is best at talking and can complete the tasks given to her no matter how difficult they are. Just before entering Ma Jinshan's office, Li Zhen just wanted to do her best.

But after Ma Jinshan took away the two easiest jobs, Li Zhen found that even if she thought about Ma Jinshan again, he would not think about her, even if she took over the work from him for almost eight years and solved countless problems for him. Problems that others may find difficult to solve.

Therefore, she shouldn't get used to this kind of person, not to mention she has the capital to make Ma Jinshan nod and bow.

Ma Jinshan leaned back in his chair and looked at Li Zhen with careful eyes.

"Comrade Li got rich?" He said in a joking tone.

The reason why Li Zhen didn't pick any jobs in Ma Jinshan's hands was because she was short of money. She needed to make money to make her life easier when she was at her parents' home. After marrying Qi Yihan, her expenses increased sharply, and almost all the money she earned went to the Qi family's mother and son. Three people spent.

Now, Li Zhen is also short of money. She is pregnant and will spend more money in the future. However, she has the memory of past lives and has a lot of advantages. Making money, including making a fortune, is not a problem for her. Ma Jinshan has lost the conditions to control her.

Li Zhen smiled lightly, "I signed a confidentiality agreement... and I won't do anything immoral, so Editor Ma can rest assured."

With that said, Li Zhen stood up and left.

Ma Jinshan initially thought that Li Zhen was trying to raise the price, but Li Zhen never mentioned the price increase. Now it seemed that he really didn't want to do it anymore, and quickly called to Li Zhen who had put his hand on the door handrail to stop.

"Would you like to say hello to Master Liu first?"

Hearing Ma Jinshan mention his teacher, Li Zhen said, "The teacher introduced me just to practice my painting skills. Now these are of no use to me to improve my painting skills. I will not interfere even if I ask the teacher."

Even moving Liu Yinbo out could not scare Li Zhen. Ma Jinshan changed his previous repressive attitude and said in an easy-going way.

"Continuing writing will eventually be beneficial. Comrade Li will think about it carefully..."

With that said, Ma Jinshan took out two hundred yuan from the drawer, put it on the table, and said again.

"There has been a lot of work lately, Comrade Li has been working hard."

Li Zhen glanced at them and saw that they were all worth ten yuan.

It's impossible for her to get this money just by making a fuss, unless her employer has already given it to her, but someone else will pretend to be confused if she doesn't ask.

Although he was born in two generations, Li Zhen only tolerated his family in both lives and never took offense to others. Especially if Qi Yihan didn't like her anymore, he would have zero tolerance for anyone who dared to slight her.

If she hadn't persisted today, Ma Jinshan would still suck her blood with peace of mind.

Li Zhen was angry from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that she was too talkative and her family would trample her wantonly. Why did he, Ma Jinshan, deprive her of her?

Bang! Li Zhen slammed the door and left.

Li Zhen usually had a smile in his eyes every time he got paid. This gave Ma Jinshan the illusion that Li Zhen was greedy for money and would surrender to him with a little favor. But Li Zhen's cool look just now made him realize, He may have offended someone he shouldn't have offended.

Ma Jinshan was a little panicked, and then thought that Li Zhen had been short of money all these years, which showed that his family conditions were not good, and judging from Li Zhen's clothes, his life could be described as "embarrassed". Now that there is a commotion, I'm afraid There are still many reasons for wanting to increase commissions.

Ma Jinshan, who stood up and raised his legs to catch up, sat back in his chair. He had to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and wait for Li Zhen to come back and beg him, otherwise Li Zhen would be restrained if he was shorter than him.

Li Zhen only remembered to borrow the camera after leaving Ma Jinshan's office.

In the 1980s, cameras were not yet common, and there were not many professional camera equipment on the market. Li Zhen originally wanted to borrow one from Ma Jinshan, but now she has given up.

The longer Ma Jinshan waited, the more uncertain he became. He stood up and walked to the window to look down. When he saw Li Zhen walking out of the publishing house without looking back, he immediately picked up the phone and dialed the internal line.

The guard received Ma Jinshan's call and ran out of the mail room to call Li Zhen.

Li Zhen stopped and the doorman gasped, "Editor Ma asked you to answer the phone...Hey!"

The guard watched Li Zhen turn and walk away through the thick white mist exhaled from his mouth and nose, hesitated for a moment, turned around and ran back.

Yue Wenshan drove by and took a quick look. He turned the steering wheel with his turn signal flashing and parked the car on the side of the road. He lowered the window and called Li Zhen.

Li Zhen thought it was the guard who was chasing after him again, so he walked forward without paying any attention.

"Tsk..." Yue Wenshan had no choice but to open the car door and get out, taking a few steps to block Li Zhen's front.

Li Zhen noticed someone suddenly raising his head and was startled.

"Investigator Yue?"

Yue Wenshan nodded and said, "I, I have something to trouble you with..."

On the way to the hospital last time, Li Zhen noticed that Yue Wenshan was looking at her frequently. At that time, she thought this man was behaving strangely. When Yue Wenshan said that he wanted to see her for something, she understood why Yue Wenshan reacted that way.

"What's the matter?" Li Zhengang was unhappy with Ma Jinshan, and he couldn't help but resist Yue Wenshan's request for help.

Yue Wenshan looked around and didn't find a suitable place to talk on the roadside. He raised his hand and pointed to his car and said.

"How about we go to the car and talk."
