One was an unknown author who had already moved offline, the other was a top author.

There was no question who would be favored.

Ruo Lan's editor quickly nodded her head, confirming that she could prove her innocence.

“You guys are so shameless!”

Yun Shuihan's eyes turned red from anger. She bit her lip and glared at the two women.

Smugness appeared in Ruo Lan's eyes.

“Ha…”

Wei Ning chuckled. He crossed his arms and turned to look at Jia Hao.

“Manager Jia, who do you think is right in this situation?”

Jia Hao did not reply immediately. Instead, he looked at Ruo Lan. Ruo Lan narrowed her eyes and gave him a look of warning.

If Jia Hao refused to side with her, then they could go down together.

As the manager of a literary website, it was already bad enough that he had relations.h.i.+ps with multiple female authors, he even used his power for personal gain. Many authors had been forced to leave because of him.

If they actually got into a disagreement, who would be more embarra.s.sed?

Jia Hao was disgusted by the woman. She was so gentle when she was pleading him and acting coquettish, now look how hateful she was acting.

He swallowed and said in a deep voice, “President Wei, Ruo Lan is one of our signed top authors. Compared to an outsider, I believe her more. Besides, just as she said, she was already a top author when she first started writing this novel. Top authors are cherished. No matter what she writes, the readers are bound to like it. She has no reason to plagiarize.”

“Mm…” Wei Ning nodded.

He then looked at Yun Shuihan who was about to cry and asked, “Do you agree with what they're saying?”

“No!”

Even a golem had a bit of humanity. These people were simply teaming up to oppress her because she was a powerless n.o.body!

“If President Wei doesn't get justice for me, I will have to rely on the law. Even if I go bankrupt, I will fight to the end!” she said in a deep voice as she gritted her teeth.

One should endure to keep the peace, but all this retreating was making her furious.

If she didn't resolve this matter, it was going to create a knot in her heart that could never be undone!

“That's not necessary.”

Wei Ning humphed. He narrowed his eyes and scanned across Jia Hao and Ruo Lan. Finally, his gaze fell upon the editor.

The temperature suddenly dropped and the three people felt their bodies go cold.

That was when they heard Wei Ning calmly say, “This is an official notice: the three of you are fired. Jia Hao used his power for private gain and acted indecently with our female staff. I will ask an expert to investigate whether you broke any laws. As for you…”

Wei Ning looked at the shocked editor. “You can go back to pack your things, and you can ask the finance department for this month's salary.”

“President Wei! Why…?”

Ruo Lan didn't expect Wei Ning to change so quickly. It was as though she had been kicked down from heaven into h.e.l.l. The higher she started, the more painful the fall.

She was shocked. When she realized what had happened, she screamed, “President Wei! I can't accept this. If you want to cancel our contract, you need to give me a reasonable explanation! Otherwise, why should I listen to you? This is such an ungrateful thing to do. How much money have I made for the website all these years? If you really want to cancel it. then make sure to prepare the compensation!”

After hearing this, Wei Ning gestured for her to calm down.

The air smelled of gunpowder. As a moneymaker for the website, Ruo Lan was usually spoiled. Never did she consider whether she had the right to make a fuss in front of Wei Ning. Based on her income alone, that amount of money was nothing in Wei Ning's eyes.

“Sure, but you've got things flipped the wrong way around.”
