"hurry up……"

"If you ask me, who should I ask?"

At the Muyun Literary Society, Yan Wenzhong was feeling extremely anxious because of a phone call he received fifteen minutes ago.

It was just because the writer they were promoting suddenly said he wanted to come over and take a look. Even though they didn't know what Li Yan was thinking, they had no choice but to put in their best efforts to prepare to welcome him.

While Yu Yin was forced to clean the glass at her workstation, she pouted behind the Mediterranean and muttered, "It's like the leader is inspecting. If you don't know, you would think that A University is the big boss behind Mu Yun."

……

Yan Wenzhong stood in the aisle and clapped his hands fiercely, shouting, "Stop chatting nonsense! Cheer up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an editor ran up from the stairs, saying breathlessly that someone had arrived.

"Hey, how come you come so soon? I said I would pick you up in person." When Yan Wenzhong saw Li Yan, his greasy face instantly changed to a kind look. He clasped his hands together and almost bowed to worship Li Yan like an emperor.

"I was just sitting around at home with nothing to do, so I thought of coming to our company to visit Editor-in-Chief Yan." Li Yan smiled gently.

Even after going through such a big thing before, he forced himself to recover from the state of depression as soon as possible.

The main reason for coming here today was because he was worried. He doubted whether Zou Yanzhi had really told these people. He was originally very nervous, but when he saw Yan Wenzhong's attitude, Li Yan's tense nerves relaxed.

He still had the proper decency, he dressed himself up from head to toe, and visited the client with seemingly ostentatious gifts.

Although a closer look revealed bloodshot eyes from not having rested all night, his face inevitably showed signs of fatigue.

"Master, you are too polite. Come on, follow me, let's go back to the office and talk." Yan Wenzhong took the gift box and before leaving, he pretended to command his subordinates: "Work hard, don't be lazy!"

"……Oh!"

Yan Wenzhong smiled and served him tea and water. After the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Li Yan began to reveal his true intentions:

"Editor-in-Chief Yan, I remember my editor hasn't come to work for a while, right?" He pretended not to know and asked calmly, "Is he working from home?"

After hearing this, Yan Wenzhong's expression became solemn, and he subconsciously touched the few strands of hair he had left.

The matter between Si Mo and Zou Yanzhi has been exposed by many people on the hot search, and the literature club has naturally heard about it. Yan Wenzhong's guess is correct that Si Mo is most likely living with her boyfriend.

But after all, Zou Yanzhi is a great author and he is treated preferentially, so Mu Yun's attitude towards Si Mo is naturally much more relaxed. As long as it does not affect the quality of the manuscript, they will turn a blind eye.

No matter how much he cares, he can never stop other people from having a normal relationship.

"Ah, yes." Thinking of this, Lao Yan nodded and agreed, "Why, why did you come here this time...?"

"It's like this," Li Yan said with a smile, "I want to ask where the editor-in-chief used to work. He said that some things he hadn't backed up were still on his computer. I remember that the literature club can synchronize information, right?"

Yan Wenzhong thought about it, then nodded: "Yes, that's right."

"I came here today because I was asked by him to help. The editor-in-chief is not in the country recently. I heard that he is traveling."

"is it?"

Yan Wenzhong asked in confusion. It was strange, why hadn't he heard about Si Mo going abroad?

How can this be? He is still Mu Yun's man in name, but he dares to leave his post without even asking for leave! ?

Li Yan showed an innocent look, "Yeah, why didn't he tell you?"

Yan Wenzhong looked at him, feeling a little embarrassed. He couldn't let anyone feel embarrassed. The employee had been gone for who knows how long, but the boss didn't know anything about it.

"Ah, no, no, I should have said it. There were a lot of things to do in the agency and I forgot for a moment... Well, I'll ask someone to take you there later." He waved his hand.

Why does Li Yan need to come in person for such a trivial matter? Si Mo is treating the author like a slave!

The more Yan Wenzhong thought about it, the angrier he became, and he also felt some unspeakable jealousy.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Si Mo was really lucky, as the two great authors he had were both very good to him.

With that kind of relationship with Zou Yanzhi, won’t Mu Yun be able to have as many manuscripts as he wants in the future?

As for Li Yan, he even did some small errands for Si Mo himself——

When Yan Wenzhong was the editor-in-charge, the authors he met were mostly difficult characters. He struggled for many years before he finally became the editor-in-chief.

The sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger. It is estimated that Si Mo will replace him soon! !

Li Yan pretended not to notice the deep worry in his eyes and thanked him politely. When he left, the extremely hypocritical smile on his face disappeared in an instant after he turned around.

……

His estimation was correct. Since editing is inseparable from computers, Mu Yun's host is connected to each of their personal accounts, and the contents of the computers will be synchronized. Li Yan looked around and tried to hack into the backend while no one was paying attention.

At the moment of success, Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, I consulted a hacker friend for advice before leaving the house, so he wouldn’t be defeated so easily!

Li Yan is now looking for Chang Ruxin all over the world, and his actions are getting better and better before he finds the evidence.

...

He found a document with a fresh date on the computer, which was exactly the manuscript written by Zou Yanzhi!

There was a cold light of unusual excitement in Li Yan's eyes.

Didn't Zou Yanzhi say that he plagiarized? But who exactly plagiarized... is still unclear.

On the other side, the scene playing in the sea of ​​consciousness was the footage recorded by Benben after he staked out the area:

[The chief judge’s guess was really accurate. ]

[Li Yan can't sit still anymore. It's only been a short while and he's already taking action. What are you going to do?]

Si Mo was lying on the sofa chewing potato chips. Hearing this, he raised his fox eyes lazily and smiled playfully:

Did he think that he could bite back by releasing his work before Zou Yanzhi?

Then let Li Yan experience what it feels like to fail at the brink of success~

[(Eh~! The chief is smiling so eeriely, I can tell it’s not a good thing)]

"Don't worry, he can only see what I want him to see."

This is a local area network specially set up to lure Li Yan into the trap, and he is the real mastermind behind it.

When Li Yan gets it, he will think that this is the work that Zou Yanzhi will use to participate in the competition in a few months. After he has spent a lot of effort to imitate and plagiarize it, he will definitely publish it first. By then, Zou Yanzhi will be judged to have plagiarized him if he publishes it again, and he will not have time to rewrite it, so he will have to withdraw from the competition.

Li Yan’s idea of ​​biting back was a good one.

But Si Mo had already taken a step ahead of him and replaced the draft that Zou Yanzhi had abandoned long ago.

In this way, the one who will get nothing after all the efforts will be Li Yan.

Such a near-failure is truly unforgettable.
