Chapter 9: The Company That Stooped to Dishonourable Means

Lisa was surprised when she saw the documents that were handed to her.

Lisa thought, 'Jeon Company, isn't that Jeon Jungkook's company?'

In addition to the five-star Hotel SY across the globe, they also owned holiday resorts, chain restaurants, and a mysterious upper-class club that was only meant for prominent figures in the society. They even invested in a few films and television works in recent years.

She searched the internet for a long time, but she still could not find any video interviews. She could only dig up an interview article, but what left a great impression on her was not the content of the interview, it was the conversation between the reporter and Jeon Jungkook before the interview.

The reporter asked, "Master Jeon, when would you have time for the interview?"

Jungkook replied, "There's no need for that. I've learned how to use WeChat recently so you can just interview me on WeChat."

The reporter said, "Alright, please send your WeChat ID to me and I'll add you as a friend on WeChat."

Jungkook responded, "What's a WeChat ID?"

"Then I'll send you my WeChat ID, you can add me."

"How do I do that?"

"..."

Didn't you learn it already? Did you really want to go on with this interview?

[Editor's Note: After a friendly negotiation between both sides, the reporter and Master Jeon's personal assistant, Mr. Zuo Eunwoo, added each other on WeChat and the reporter conducted the interview with Master Jeon through Mr. Zuo Eunwoo's WeChat. At the same time, we learned more about Master Jeon's down-to-earth side.]

"..." Lisa thought that the ignorant side of him would be more fitting.

She looked up for the business client she was going to meet tonight, the vice president of Ding Shang whose surname is Yao. There was even a Baidu Baike page about him, but it was all about his life story and accomplishments. There were only positive things about him so there was not much use.

Lisa suddenly remembered that the company Jennie was working for had business relations with Ding Shang, so she made a phone call.

"You're having dinner with him?"

Her tone gave Lisa the jitters.

"Why? What's wrong?"

"He has a very bad reputation. My company only sends male colleagues to business meetings with him. In the beginning, female colleagues were sent to talk business with him as well, but he brazenly harassed my female colleagues even though my male colleagues were right there. My female colleagues were all afraid of losing their jobs so they kept quiet about it. There was once he put his hands on me, and of course, I couldn't let it slip. I talked to my supervisor about it, thankfully he was very understanding. He even consoled my female colleagues who were sexually harassed by him. Ever since after that, they only send male colleagues to talk business with him," Jennie said.

Lisa frowned and said nothing.

Jennie added, "You said your manager asked you and Zhu Sooyoung to go with him? It's obvious that he's setting you up, you have to be careful. If anything happens, just call the police. You'll just lose your job at most. It's not worth it to work for a company that stoops to dishonorable means."

The corners of her mouth lifted, Lisa was glad that Jennie was concerned about her and offered her advice. At least now she was aware of the kind of person she would be dealing with. She ended the call, went to the washroom and removed her makeup before she got off work. With her bare face, she felt that she was somehow in disguise and that it would help her to obscure her presence.



Side Story — "Master Jeon Has No Clue on How to Use WeChat"

When Jeon Jungkook first learned how to use WeChat, he was elated. He tossed his phone to Zuo Eunwoo and made Eunwoo add him as a friend on WeChat. He insisted on using WeChat to communicate with Eunwoo whenever something came up.

Jungkook said, "Eunwoo, please come into my room."

Eunwoo walked into the room, "Master Jeon, what's the matter?"

Jungkook was holding his phone and pressing on the voice recording button and saying, "Please take this document to the planning department."

Eunwoo was just about to take the document but Jungkook said, "Check your WeChat!"

Eunwoo heard the sound of the notification and opened WeChat on his phone. After he played the voice message, then only Jungkook was willing to hand over the document.

"...," Eunwoo was utterly speechless.

Later on, Eunwoo posted a thread on an online forum: 'My boss is insisting to communicate with me on WeChat even though I'm just right in front of him. Please let me know what I should do. Urgent. Waiting online.'
