Jin Mingzhu lost her balance and fell forward with a scream.

Lu Huaiyang quickly supported her and asked hurriedly, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Jin Mingzhu borrowed his help to stand firm and looked forward. It was the team of Zhou Ying and another male colleague.

It seemed that Zhou Ying was deliberately targeting her because of the previous incident. She had warned Zhou Ying once before, but now it seemed that Zhou Ying had not made any progress at all.

Jin Mingzhu looked at Lu Huaiyang and said firmly:

"Lu Huaiyang, we take first place!"

Lu Huaiyang looked at her and smiled. This was the Jin Mingzhu he knew, always full of fighting spirit.

"Come on, Jin Mingzhu."

They held each other's waists, shouted "one, two, one" in unison, and quickly reversed the situation of being at the bottom.

Zhou Ying's team rushed to the front, while Jin Mingzhu and Lu Huaiyang caught up and narrowed the gap between them.

They encouraged each other and tried their best to speed up. Closer and closer... With cheers, they surpassed Zhou Ying and won first place.

"Yeah!" Jin Mingzhu seemed very excited and was about to high-five Lu Huaiyang to celebrate, but when she stretched out her hand, she forgot that their legs were still tied together, and she lost her balance and fell towards Lu Huaiyang.

Lu Huaiyang opened his arms and hugged her, but his balance was unstable and they both fell on the grass.

Jin Mingzhu lay in his arms. Lu Huaiyang's embrace made people feel very solid, like the breeze in the pine forest, comfortable and pleasant. Feeling his heartbeat speeding up, Jin Mingzhu blushed and pushed him away, sitting on one side.

The colleagues around her exclaimed and cheered, and Jin Mingzhu quickly lowered her head to untie the straps that tied her legs.

She didn't know how to do it, and the belt kept getting tighter and tighter. She gradually lost her patience and struggled a few times, which made her white legs red.

Seeing her like this, Lu Huaiyang smiled helplessly.

"You haven't changed at all. You're still so impatient." After saying that, he reached down to untie the belt.

The belt that seemed a bit complicated to Jin Mingzhu was so obedient in Lu Huaiyang's hands. He quickly untied it after a few turns.

"Thank you." Jin Mingzhu quickly stood up and walked out of the crowd.

Lu Huaiyang's words, "You haven't changed at all." aroused Jin Mingzhu's suspicion. She was absolutely sure that she had never seen Lu Huaiyang.

But was it really a coincidence? He called out his name accurately when they first met; he stood up to protect himself when faced with the bad guys' harassment at the dinner party; even everything that happened today... all of these coincidences made people suspicious.

Jin Mingzhu calmed down. Since Lu Huaiyang appeared, he had never hurt her and even helped her again and again. At present, he seemed very friendly.

Jin Mingzhu shook her head, trying to throw away the tangled thoughts in her mind, and felt someone coming behind her.

"Jin Mingzhu, you are so amazing. There is always someone standing up for you." Zhou Ying said in a sarcastic tone.

Zhou Ying tripped her on purpose just now, but Jin Mingzhu didn't go looking for trouble with her. Instead, she brought trouble to him herself.

Jin Mingzhu pressed something in her bag, turned around, and looked at her with a cold look.

"Zhou Ying, why did you trip me just now?"

Not a question, but an affirmation.

Zhou Ying looked at her shamelessly and asked with a smile:

"Jin Mingzhu, which eye of yours saw me tripping you?"

Jin Mingzhu looked at her and suddenly felt a little sympathy for her IQ.

"I, Jin Mingzhu, never say anything without basis. This team-building activity was originally a key publicity project of the company, so naturally we arranged for people to take photos and videos."

"I just watched the replay. Zhou Ying, your legs are really long."

Zhou Ying smiled disdainfully and said:

"So what? Jin Mingzhu, I did it accidentally. Isn't it enough for me to apologize to you? What can you do to me?"

Jin Mingzhu sneered a few times. Where is the video? She was just deceiving Zhou Ying. Seeing that she readily admitted it, Jin Mingzhu continued to ask:

"Did you delete my press release last time?" All her hard work for a week went down the drain, she couldn't produce a manuscript, and was criticized by the editor-in-chief for this.

Zhou Ying became even more complacent and said loudly:

"So what if I did it, Jin Mingzhu, do you have any evidence?"

"I got the interview last time, and the coverage was better than yours."

The interview Zhou Ying mentioned was about a case some time ago, in which a girl was sexually assaulted in a KTV. The perpetrator was a powerful and wealthy second-generation man in Beijing. She mustered up the courage to call the police and found the media to expose the facts.

It would have been fine if she had done a good job in the interview that was snatched away from her, but Zhou Ying distorted the facts for the sake of attention: her sharp writing pointed out that the girl was a hostess who did not get satisfactory remuneration, so she bit back.

This interview attracted a large number of netizens who were unaware of the facts and launched a barrage of abuse against the victim. In the end, the interviewee could not bear the violence and committed suicide by jumping off a building. Her death only caused a small wave on the Internet, which was like an ocean, but soon calmed down.

But that was a living life after all. The girl placed her last hope on them, but it accelerated her death.

Jin Mingzhu was a little angry and looked at her coldly.

"The most important thing in news reporting is truth. You distorted the facts to attract the audience's attention and forced her to death."

Zhou Ying waved her hands, somewhat unconcerned:

"She tried to seduce Young Master Yang, but she falsely accused him of rape. As a reporter, am I wrong to seek justice?"

Jin Mingzhu looked indifferent, and suddenly thought of something, and asked loudly:

"Why are you speaking for the rapist? Did you get any benefits from him?"

"Hahaha, Jin Mingzhu, you have some brains. So what if I took it. In this world, people only bow to power and money. Am I wrong?" Zhou Ying's words sounded a little crazy. She has deviated from the original intention of a journalist.

Jin Mingzhu looked at her with some contempt. Noticing her gaze, Zhou Ying said indifferently:

"Jin Mingzhu, I know you look down on me, but it doesn't matter. Young Master Yang said he would help me climb to the position of anchor."

"When the time comes, just wait and pack up your things and leave."

Jin Mingzhu said coldly: "Zhou Ying, you have done so many bad things, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Retribution, what retribution? Do you have any evidence?"

Jin Mingzhu looked at her crazy look, took out a recorder from her bag and waved it in front of her.

"It wasn't there just now, but it is now."

Jin Mingzhu said coldly:

"Zhou Ying, should I say you are getting carried away or stupid? As a media person, you don't even have this much vigilance."

"You!" Zhou Ying saw that she had recorded the audio, so she rushed towards her and tried to grab the recorder from Jin Mingzhu's hand.

Jin Mingzhu dodged to the side and avoided her attack. He clenched his fists to distance himself from her, raised his leg and kicked her hard in the abdomen. Zhou Ying bent her body in pain.

Jin Mingzhu kicked her again, knocking her to the ground, and raised his foot to press down on her body.

"Jin Mingzhu, you are shameless! You bitch!"

Jin Mingzhu suppressed her twisting and said angrily:

"I am shameless? Zhou Ying, can you have some shame?"

Zhou Ying cried for help desperately in pain, trying to attract the attention of colleagues far away.

Jin Mingzhu stepped on her and whispered, "Zhou Ying, do you want me to make public all the ugly things you have done?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ying stopped struggling.
