Xia Ning clenches her fists and tries to control herself. It is no use to argue with Xiao Tingting at the moment. Xiao Tingting is her boss. She will lose any arguments.

“OK. I will give you the report for the exclusive interview. I get to go to work.” Xia Ning says and prepares for her work.

“One minute.” Xiao Tingting looks at her long fingers, “I don’t have any snacks here. Go to buy some. Here is the list; get all of them.”

Dropping a piece of paper on Xia Ning’s desk, Xiao Tingting turns back and walks away.

Dozens of snacks are listed on the paper. Xia Ning reads and takes several deep breaths to keep her emotion stable. It seems that in the following five days, except for the exclusive interview with President Li, she still needs to take all the tortures from Xiao Tingting.

Taking the paper, Xia Ning estimates the time it will take to buy the snacks and has a quick look at Li Dezheng’s information. She plans to make the appointment for the interview with Li Dezheng while buying snacks.

She walks in the supermarket for about an hour and buys all the snacks. She calls a taxi and goes back to the office, when Xiao Tingting has left for somewhere. She gets relaxed. In half an hour, Xia Ning puts the snacks in place one by one.

She glances at the clock. It is half past three in the afternoon. Xia Ning sets off for the Li’s Group.

The headquarters of Li’s Multinational Group Co., Ltd. is located in the busiest commercial street in the downtown. The office building of more than 50 floors looks magnificent and glorious.

Xia Ning reports her identity and is led to the gate of the General Manager office. She tells her visiting purpose again when meeting President Li’s secretary, whose face freezes once hearing that she is a reporter. She says, “I will go to check with President Li. Please wait for a moment.”

The secretary leaves and Xia Ning waits. She waits for more than one hour.

The secretary does not show up until it is almost time getting off work and asks her to go into the office.

Xia Ning is surprised. She was thinking she might be waiting till tomorrow.

The office is really large, with a glass wall at the back. A man in a dark grey suit stands in front of the glass. He is slightly fat, of middle height, with a big cigar in his mouth. He stands straight. It looks that he is contented with the sense of success, standing by the glass wall and looking at the busy people below.

“Hi, President Li, I am Xia Ning, a reporter from TIME ERA TV station.” Xia Ning smiles and introduces herself.

Li Dezheng opens his mouth and blows out a big cloud of smoke, but he does not respond.

The atmosphere is somewhat awkward. But Xia Ning is calm, “President Li is the leader of the economy in B city, a model of success and guidance of the upper-class society. Our TIME ERA TV station would like to have an exclusive interview with you. I don’t know if it is convenient for you. If not, we can arrange another time…”

“Is your Chief Editor Xiao Tingting?”

Without waiting for Xia Ning to finish, Li Dezheng interrupts. He raises his voice a bit at the end of his speech, arrogant and snooty.
