Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss - Chapter 603 - Chapter 603: Chapter 577: The Road Fool and the Pleasing Sight

Chapter 603: Chapter 577: The Road Fool and the Pleasing Sight

Xiao Qiang was temporarily away, and the week-long vacation he managed to get for Xiao Qian seemed too long. Just as the radio station called to ask when Xiao Qian could return, the new host was struggling, causing audience ratings to plummet rapidly. With nothing to do, Xiao Qian decided to cut her vacation short and return to work.

The moment the director saw her, it was like meeting a loved one, and immediately rushed towards her.

“Meiwei! You’re finally back! I was on the brink of depression, please try to cheer me up!”

“What happened?”

“Do you know who replaced you when you were out? It was the Goddess of Rain! I’ve never worked with her. I didn’t realize how different she could be in front of people and behind their backs. It was exhausting to work with her. She made me filter audience calls; she refused to take calls that were too complex or too long-winded. She was picky about everything – this and that. Even when I put through the right call, she couldn’t control the situation or answer the audience’s questions. To divert attention, she used the same humor she uses to host humorous programs, which upset a caller who was crying and sharing their misfortune. The upset caller’s man showed up to complain at the station, and the Goddess of Rain shifted all the blame to me, saying I hadn’t filtered the calls well, sob sob sob!”

Fortunately, the wise Director didn’t vent his anger on me, or else I wouldn’t have kept my job!

Comparing them, Meiwei was exceptional. Although she usually didn’t brown-nose around and always appeared a bit aloof, Meiwei’s capability at work was excellent. The fear is not of one being unaware, but when one has someone to compare, it’s such a delight to have Meiwei back!

A good host and a bad host were clearly demonstrated as the quality of the talk show program soars with Xiao Qian’s presence, her command of the show, and her professionalism which ten Ye Xiaoyu couldn’t match.

Seeing Xiao Qian hosting the show so effortlessly, the director was almost moved to tears.

Meiwei is the best!

There was no need to filter the audience; there were no stern gazes to endure; the time passed quickly whenever Meiwei was around. After being tormented by Ye Xiaoyu for two days, coming back to cooperate with Xiao Qian was like a background score playing sweet days.

Xiao Qian smoothly completed the show, packed her stuff, and drove home. When she passed the barbecue shop, it reminded her of the pleasant time she and Yu Minglang had eating skewers. Happen to be, her stomach growled, since she had no man to pamper her, she might as well treat herself to some late-night snacks.

Just as she was about to walk into the barbecue shop, a shabby man walked out of the shop and staggered towards Xiao Qian, intending to intentionally brush her body with his. Xiao Qian was calm, her self-defense pepper spray was ready in her pocket.

Xiao Qiang wasn’t by her side, and she had received such phone calls before. While working the night shift, she naturally had to be alert and carry self-defense gear with her.

Apart from the spray, she also had a small stun gun in her waistband. Although it’s prohibited, who would feel safe working the night shift without such a device in hand during a critical moment?

“Hey, girl, why are you alone so late at night? Don’t you have anyone to play with? How about drinking with us and then we can play some fun games, it will be exciting~”

A drunk stood in front of Xiao Qian, scanning her with unfriendly eyes.

“You? Hmm, you’re not worth it.” Xiao Qian stayed calm, knowing that the more panicked she was, the more arrogant this kind of person would get.

“Damn girl, acting high and mighty! You’re asking for it- Ah!”

The goon covered his eyes, Xiao Qian had sprayed him!

Just as Xiao Qian was about to pull out her stun gun, planning to let this rude man “enjoy” some more, a slightly hoarse but very pleasant female voice sounded at her side.

“Miss, don’t waste your battery, I’ll handle it manually, it’s more environmentally friendly!”

Xiao Qian turned her head and saw a girl who was at least 170 cm tall standing next to her, holding a bunch of meat skewers. She was quite pretty but her skin color was very unique. It wasn’t exactly dark, just a healthy wheat color, which made you like her at first glance.

In general, girls prefer fair skin, but this girl’s dark skin was particularly pleasing to the eye and stood out in the crowd. Some might even think that if she were a little lighter, she wouldn’t be as attractive as she is now, she has a distinct look.

“What’re you doing, harassing a girl while pretending to be drunk. Do you think you’re cool?”

“You bloody women… get lost if you don’t want to get hit!” The man who got sprayed managed to open his eyes with discomfort. His eyes were red and watering from the sting, but he was still defiant.

“Wow! Apart from my Brother Lang, not many people dare to fight me! You’re not even close! Miss, can you hold this skewer for me? If you’re hungry, you can eat first. It’s on me!”

The girl with the healthy skin tone stepped forward, pulled Xiao Qian back, and gave her the skewers.

While encountering a kind soul, Xiao Qian noticed how quickly and accurately the girl moved. She kicked the meddlesome man in the stomach with a high kick.

She’s trained!

Xiao Qian immediately realized that this girl was not ordinary.

Generally, physical strength differs between girls and men. But girls who have trained are indeed stronger. With just one kick, she made the man retreat a step, and she agilely moved her ankle.

“Beating a scum like you insults my honor as a martial arts champion. The next time you bully a woman, it’ll cost you your lineage, get lost!”

The man sobered up from his drunken state and ran away.

“If you dare to bully people but can’t accept others’ punishment, I wish that every skewer you eat in the future is undercooked!” The tall girl stylishly flipped him off.

When she turned back to Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian returned the skewers to her.

“Thank you, what else do you want to eat? My treat.”

“No need, my name is Yu Liumei, and I tend to stand up to injustice. Speaking of which, beautiful lady, you live nearby, right?”

“Yes.”

“Do you know the way to here?” The girl took out a note sheepishly.

“I took a taxi to find someone, but the driver just dropped me off here and left. I have gone around this area three times and still couldn’t find the location, and ended up getting lost…”

After looking at the address on the note, Xiao Qian looked at her and concluded, “You have no sense of direction.”

Affirmatively, this residential area was just across the barbecue shop, and the address and building number written on the paper were too familiar to Xiao Qian.

Because this was her home.

“Beautiful lady! How could you uncover my secret that has been hidden for many years!” Yu Liumei looked at Xiao Qian in confusion. How did she know she had no sense of direction?

“There are direction cells, place cells, and grid cells in a person’s hippocampus. They help us distinguish directions. Some people’s hippocampi are not developed, which results in them having a weak sense of direction.”

“Although I didn’t understand, I liked your explanation. Yes, not being able to recognize directions is not my fault, blame my parents for my congenital deficiencies!”

“What are you doing here?” Xiao Qian looked at the note again and made sure the numbers were her home address.

“I’m here looking for my cousin’s fiancée.”

“Cousin?” Could it be her family’s Xiao Qiang?
