Chapter 179
???
If you didn't have this idea, what's the point of all this?
Is it okay to stubbornly make excuses for yourself and then have a good ending?
Is that excuse polite of you?
Forget it, I'll let it go!
Lois Lane shook her head secretly, gave Su Quan a formulaic smile, nodded, and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Su Quan spoke up.
"My name is Su Quan."
Are you still going to argue with me?
Lois Lane pretended not to hear and quickened her pace to leave.
It's not that he's not handsome enough, nor that he's not good enough. Well, she doesn't even know if he's good enough or not. It's just that she's currently focused on her career and has no intention of getting involved in a relationship.
So no matter who it is, no matter how good their conditions are, her way of dealing with it is the same!
However—he is indeed quite handsome, and that exotic charm is really captivating!
Su Quan showed no embarrassment at being rejected; instead, he raised the corners of his mouth in a half-smile. This somewhat wicked smile made many female onlookers nearby feel their hearts flutter.
I don't know if today is the wrong day to strike up a conversation, but first Rose, then Lois Lane, both rejected me.
Is this God's way of telling me that today I can only take the "forced melon is not sweet, but I'll eat it even with sauce" approach?
To be honest, Lois Lane's refusal was so decisive that Su Quan was actually a little annoyed!
If you can't compromise yourself, you'll only be able to compromise others!
Holding flowers in one hand and taking out his phone with the other, Su Quan contacted Perry White, the editor-in-chief of Daily Planet, and then met with him as a shareholder of Daily Planet, asking him to arrange a temporary office.
The shares of Daily Planet were acquired from Bruce Wayne and the Wayne Enterprises. Additionally, Kyle International Group also acquired a portion of Daily Planet's shares, which have now been transferred to Su Quan's hands.
To put it simply, Su Quan is not the largest shareholder of Daily Planet, but he is the largest individual shareholder. If he wanted to dismiss the editor-in-chief without reason or interfere with the newspaper's operations, he might need to convene a board meeting.
Should Lois Lane be dismissed or made things difficult for?
It's just a matter of a word.
In the temporary office, editor-in-chief Perry White couldn't figure out what the new shareholder's purpose was, so she could only cautiously accompany him.
"Editor-in-Chief White, let me be frank: I have no interest in the management and operation of the newspaper, and I am very satisfied with your abilities. If needed, I am willing to support you without reservation!"
"However, I have one condition!"
Perry White nodded without changing his expression. "What are the conditions?"
Su Quan smiled slightly and said directly, "I've taken a liking to Lois Lane."
Hurrypett paused for a moment, then said, "I don't quite understand. Isn't this your private matter?"
"No, you understand!"
Su Quan shook his head and looked directly at him. "If you don't even understand this simple thing, I advise you to resign as soon as possible and go back to your hometown to farm."
"I know you think highly of her, and I don't need you to do anything for me. Just pass on a few words for me."
"Isn't that too difficult?"
Lois Lane was his most trusted subordinate, but now he's making her an accomplice to evil!
Can't we avoid putting ourselves in a difficult position?
There's nothing new under the sun. Being in the workplace, he naturally understood this, and at the same time, he felt angry and resentful.
However, the power of capital is immense, and after weighing the pros and cons, he compromised.
His compromise was not to gain Su Quan's support, but because he couldn't stop Su Quan's decision!
After all, anyone can spread a message!
And if things really come to a head, you have to be prepared to be kicked out along with Lois Lane!
"Tell Lois Lane that she's been fired!"
"I've been fired?"
Lois Lane stared blankly at Perry White, who had called her into the editor-in-chief's office, and chuckled, "That joke isn't funny at all."
Perry White didn't speak, but his eyes revealed sympathy and regret.
Lois Lane's smile gradually froze and disappeared, "You, are you serious? Why? Why are you firing me?"
Perry White said, "I can't do anything about it. This is the idea of the new shareholder who took the shares from Wayne Enterprises and Kyle International Group."
"Lois, you're beautiful!"
"After so many years as a journalist, you should know that beautiful women often encounter certain unavoidable troubles, especially the kind of troubles that they are powerless to resist, and that they either have to compromise or leave."
Lois Lane frowned and said, "Explain yourself clearly. What exactly happened?"
Perry White sighed. "The new shareholder has taken a liking to you. Firing you is just a way to force you to comply. You can choose to leave, or you can go find him. He's in that vacant office upstairs."
"If you choose to leave, I can pay you three months' salary more. That's the only thing I can do."
"Feel sorry."
Lois Lane remained silent for a while, then turned and left.
Was she angry when this happened?
Definitely furious!
But she didn't get angry with Perry White; she knew perfectly well that Perry White was powerless to do anything about it.
The shareholders have taken a liking to him, what can an editor-in-chief do? If it were because of the news, he might argue for himself, but for something like this?
How can he argue?
Even the best relationship wouldn't risk losing its job, its position, or everything else to help you, right?
I wouldn't have done that either!
Lois Lane walked upstairs to the unused office with a sullen face, and without knocking, she pushed the door open and went in.
"It's you!"
Looking at the young man sitting at the desk and the roses on the desk, Lois Lane understood. He was probably angry and embarrassed after being rejected by her.
"Why are you firing me? Just because I rejected you?" Lois Lane asked in a deep voice.
Su Quan said with a smile, "You're asking a question you already know the answer to."
"I've said it before, I have no intention of getting involved in a romantic relationship, and I have the right to refuse!"
"I also have the right to fire you!"
"Why are you firing me? I worked for the newspaper—" Lois Lane hadn't finished speaking when she saw Su Quan deep in thought, looking like he was listening intently.
Immediately afterwards, he turned on the TV on the wall with the remote control.
The television was precisely tuned to a certain channel as soon as it was turned on. It was a news report about a spaceship-shaped unidentified flying object entering Earth's atmosphere.
This is footage from a live news broadcast!
Lois Lane's attention was immediately drawn to it.
"They arrived ahead of schedule!"
Su Quan looked at the spaceship in the news with slight surprise.
Lois Lane was startled and turned sharply to look at Su Quan: "Do you know what this is?"
"Beep beep beep—beep beep beep—" The Void Battle Bead on his wrist suddenly rang. Su Quan nodded slightly, and the holographic image of Supergirl Kara-El appeared instantly.
"Did you watch TV? That's Krypton spaceship." Kara-El's voice was somewhat low.
Su Quan said, "Dre Zod was originally a general of your Krypton. He rebelled with his troops because he was dissatisfied with the Council's decision. After being suppressed, he was exiled to the Phantom Zone for two hundred years."
"When we came out, Krypton had already been destroyed."
Kara-El asked, "What is his purpose?"
"He's here to see your cousin. Your cousin has the Life Core Codex within him, and he wants to transform Earth into an environment suitable for Kryptonians to live in."
"Rebuild Krypton!"
Kara-El nodded slightly and asked, "Should we notify him and the others?"
"Assemble the Superman Legion and get them ready."
"Good."
Kara-El nodded in response and then ended the call.
Seeing this, Lois Lane quickly launched into a barrage of questions. "What is Krypton? Is it an alien planet? Are the Kryptonians on the spaceship here to govern Earth? Was that woman also Kryptonians? What is your relationship with her? How do you know these things?"
As expected of a reporter, they asked so many questions so quickly!
