I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3893: Chapter 3881: Information Provided by Zhao Jing

After a short meeting, Lin Yi and the other two went out to eat.

"Do you think this episode can drag Wang Jia down with us?" Ma Jun said while eating:

"If it really works that way, it’d count as avenging Brother Rong, and we’d also win back some pride."

"The chances of dragging her down aren’t high. After all, their drugs have no problem, so she’s fine as well." Zhou Li said.

"You think we should pull a really ruthless move?" Ma Jun said with a wicked grin.

"You’re not thinking about checking their drugs, are you?"

"I do have that idea."

"I think it could work. Lin Yi, what do you think?"

"Honestly, there’s no need, and it’s not very feasible."

"What do you mean?"

"First of all, medicine and food are different. Food can be faked, but medicine almost never is. It’s a livelihood thing; the state’s control is very strict. As long as the pharma company’s qualifications are legit, the drugs they produce will definitely have no problems—at most the effect just isn’t that great. So even if we do it, it’s pointless."

"Not necessarily. Some people are both black-hearted and bold. What if someone really dares to do something like that?"

Lin Yi spoke while eating:

"If someone really dared, that would be a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering incident."

"Huh? A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering incident?"

The two of them turned to look at Lin Yi in unison.

"Think about it: if a problematic drug got onto the market, how many people from the regulatory authorities do you think would be sent down?" Lin Yi said:

"Even though there’s a lot of unfairness in this society, there are some things no one dares mess around with, because they’ll really come down hard on you."

"But there might be suspicion of scamming people." Ma Jun said.

"Now that hits the nail on the head." Lin Yi said:

"We can only say the efficacy isn’t obvious, or that it’s a health product with no effect, but we can’t call it fake medicine. Those are two different things."

"Then there’s no need to check the drugs, just the wastewater."

"Right."

The three chatted while they ate, and soon finished their meal.

When they got back, the program had already started reporting.

Dong Xiao was wearing a white women’s suit, clean and proper, dignified and classy. By contrast, Zhou Li looked very homely, with a more feminine charm.

"Now that it’s recorded, when can it be aired?"

"Judging by Brother Rong’s posture, I’d guess it’s going out tonight."

"They’ve already sent us a lawyer’s letter; naturally we don’t need to save face anymore. Just go for it." Ma Jun said.

"Absolutely no problem with that."

With both sets of footage shot, Lin Yi could finally relax a bit. After watching the recording for a while, he went to find Zhao Jing.

In Studio 1, Strongest Resonance had already entered the rehearsal stage. Zhao Jing was watching Xu Qingqing’s rehearsal effect.

"What brings a big busy man like you here?"

Seeing Lin Yi walk over, Zhao Jing teased him.

"Why do I smell a hint of jealousy?"

"Newcomers replace the old. Now you don’t even have time for us."

"I’m here to buy you something as a reward, aren’t I?" Lin Yi handed over the bag in his hand. Inside was a cup of coffee and a small box of dessert.

"At least you still have a conscience." Zhao Jing took out the coffee. "How are things over there? Can you adapt?"

"It’s okay, just a bit busy."

"Busy with work or busy with your female colleagues?" Zhao Jing said with a squinting smile:

"I know Zhou Li. She’s pretty nice, very warm-hearted, and her husband is often away on business—sometimes gone for a month or two at a time."

"Listen to you. We’ve barely started talking and you’re already going off track, even onto her husband now."

"I’m just providing intel for you. As your former boss, I have to think of you when there’s something good."

"They say when you’re with a mature woman, you learn something new every day. Looks like that’s not a lie."

"Hey, hey, watch your wording. I’m not married yet. At most I’m a mature woman; I haven’t made it into the married-woman category."

"I can help. I’ll change your status as early as tomorrow."

"Get lost. You’re getting more and more improper." Lin Yi laughed and sat down on a nearby equipment box.

"How’s the show going? Handling two shows at once—can your body take it?"

"I’m getting used to it now. Overall, it’s not a big problem."

Out of habit, Zhao Jing brushed her hair back and looked at Lin Yi:

"But what surprises me most is still Xu Qingqing. I’d heard from people in the circle that she’s quite the diva, but now that I’ve seen her, it’s really not like that. She didn’t complain about having work meals, and she’s very polite to the cleaning aunties—completely different from what I imagined."

Lin Yi smiled. It was probably that night that had left an indelible impression on her.

"But I feel like this has something to do with you."

Lin Yi’s mind stirred.

Could his identity have been exposed?

But judging by Zhao Jing’s attitude, that didn’t seem likely.

If that were the case, she would’ve come to him long ago; she wouldn’t be this calm.

"How’s this got anything to do with me?"

"Every time she finishes rehearsal, she comes over to me and keeps bringing you up, intentionally or not."

Zhao Jing nudged Lin Yi with her shoulder, clearly up to no good.

"You didn’t secretly win her over, did you?" Zhao Jing lifted her chin toward the stage. "Look at Xu Qingqing up there. She’s in the middle of rehearsal, but her eyes are glued to you, all tender and affectionate. She looks like a girl with a crush."

Lin Yi glanced at the stage. Xu Qingqing was wearing a tracksuit, looking very casual, but she was singing with great effort. Her vocal skills were a bit lacking, so she could only make up for it with emotion and body language.

"Don’t talk nonsense. Even if you add both of hers together, they’re still not as big as yours. She’s definitely not my type."

"Men really are boys till they die—they all like them big."

"Don’t you like them?"

"I’m a woman. Why would I like—"

Halfway through, Zhao Jing suddenly stopped, realizing what Lin Yi meant.

"You’re clearly an old hand, you know that? Hahaha..."

Squeak—

Just then, the studio door was pushed open.

The two turned to look and saw 18 and Chen Hui walk in.

Seeing Zhao Jing looking his way, 18 greeted her with a big grin.

Lin Yi, standing beside her, was completely ignored.

Zhao Jing responded with a smile and a nod.

"Boss, we’re in the middle of rehearsal."

"Mm." Zhao Jing nodded. "What brings you two here?"

"Both shows are recording now, and the department I joined is also related to the entertainment industry, so I wanted to take this chance to interview Xu Qingqing."

chuckled. "But don’t worry, we definitely won’t eat into rehearsal time. We’ll just use the gap to do a quick interview and promote our show a bit while we’re at it."

"Alright, after she finishes this run-through, you can go interview her. I’ll give you ten minutes; that should be enough, right?"

"More than enough. Thank you, boss."

"No need to be so polite. It’s nothing."

Just then, the sound from the studio speakers stopped. Xu Qingqing put down the mic and hurriedly walked over to Lin Yi.
