I'm a male god in Liyue

"How can it be."

Charlotte gave an awkward laugh and offered a weak defense.

Actually, what she's been doing these past few days has something to do with paparazzi reporters.

There's nothing we can do; Lady Ningguang just loves this kind of thing.

Charlotte is now even starting to suspect that the Liyue News Agency was originally established by Ningguang to create a scandal between her and Mr. Charlotte...

Just like what Mr. Xia said when he was making dumplings for the Chinese New Year.

How should I put it? Oh, right, I specially made these dumplings for that taste of vinegar...

But then again, it's not surprising that Lady Ningguang would fall for a man as outstanding as Mr. Xia, who can cook and has a great personality...

Chapter 372 The Junior Reporter Was Also Taken Over by a Rich Woman (4K)

The school playground is very large, and today Yunhan Society is performing there.

Charlotte stood on the second floor of the teaching building, leaning against the railing, and opened the letter, carefully reading its contents word by word.

Nothing important.

These were all words of concern from her father and mother.

But it was enough to make the girl stare into the distance, lost in thought.

The Yunhan Society's performance was fantastic, and a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the playground.

Charlotte glanced down, shifted her foot position, unconsciously tiptoeing her left toes, and looked into the distance again.

The greater the revelry among the crowd, the more it highlights the loneliness of the individual.

Especially when you suddenly have free time like this.

I wonder what kind of material the editor-in-chief of Oufu is shooting right now.

Her thoughts drifted away, and Charlotte recalled things from the past.

Her father was also a journalist, and a famous one at that, specializing in documenting wildlife ecology, earning him the industry title of "Wildlife Journalist."

Perhaps influenced by her father, Charlotte showed a special interest and talent in observation from a young age. On her tenth birthday, her father gave her a specially made gramophone as a birthday present. From then on, she often accompanied her father to the streets and alleys, forests and riverbanks of Fontainebleau, taking countless beautiful and moving pictures with two gramophones, one large and one small.

Later, her father sent these pictures to the Steambird newspaper, and once published, they caused a huge sensation in the Fontainebleau photography community, marking the beginning of Charlotte's fame.

After Charlotte became famous for her exceptional photography skills, commissioners, magazine editors, clipping collectors, and her father's fellow journalists frequently visited her. Miss Ove, the editor of the Steambird newspaper, also made an appearance.

Charlotte still remembers the scene of that encounter.

Miss Ove stated her purpose directly—she wanted Charlotte to become a "special correspondent," responsible for conducting interviews and writing articles in addition to posing for photos.

However, Charlotte's usually good-natured father was firmly opposed to her becoming a special correspondent. He did not want his daughter to deal with people who were either scheming or hypocritical.

My father is a veteran journalist who has been in the industry for many years, so he naturally knows just how deep the waters run behind this profession.

While he respected his daughter's choice, he also hoped that Charlotte could live a simple and happy life and never stray into the mire of human nature.

Young people are naturally full of courage.

The next day, Charlotte appeared at the newspaper office and, under the guidance of Editor-in-Chief Ove, successfully joined the Steambird Newspaper.

Then began the girl's legendary work experience.

To uncover the truth, she disguised herself as a homeless person and worked as a handyman in the kitchen of a counterfeit food company for six months. After gathering enough firsthand information, she wrote reports about what they were doing and published them in the newspaper.

The report generated a strong response, and the counterfeit food vendor was punished. However, their retaliation followed. Every day when she came home, there was a threatening letter on her bedside table, and the newspaper office was always vandalized with mud. The newspaper quickly reported the incident to the police, and she was assigned to a business trip to another city for protection. It was quite some time before she returned to Fontainebleau.

This has happened many times.

I really don't know how Editor-in-Chief Ou Fu managed to handle all of them...

Charlotte's thoughts wandered aimlessly.

Until she heard footsteps coming from behind her.

Charlotte turned her head.

Ou Fu smiled and walked over to her, returning the phonograph to her.

"Thank you very much."

"Unkind."

When Mr. Wen Hengting returned to her hands, the girl, who had seemed a little sentimental, instantly became full of energy again.

"Editor-in-Chief Orpheus, how long will you be staying in Liyue this time?"

"I won't be staying long; I'll be heading back in a couple of days."

"Are you in such a hurry? I was planning to take you around to explore. Liyue is so much fun, and there's lots of delicious food there too."

"I appreciate your kindness, but I'm in a bit of a rush with my personal matters. Oh, by the way, I actually brought you some good news this time."

"What good news?"

"You should be able to go back next month."

"?!"

Why do you look so surprised?

"No, that..."

Ou Fu smiled faintly.

"Don't forget, our newspaper also has powerful backers."

"But this time, those people weren't very... tough?"

"Heh, our newspaper has a much stronger backing than theirs, it's just that she can't come forward."

"That……"

"The newspaper sent you out here to protect you, in case someone caused trouble, but those people should have already been tried by now."

"……I see."

Charlotte nodded slightly.

Editor-in-Chief Ou seemed to have other matters to attend to, and after chatting with Charlotte for a while longer, she said goodbye and left.

Charlotte leaned on the second-floor railing, looking down at the people on the playground.

Many of the friends she met in Liyue are here.

Mr. Xia, Zhu Zi, Diona, Qi Qi, Shen He, Yao Yao...

I'm still very reluctant to go back.

Charlotte watched for a while, then picked up her camera and took a few photos of everyone.

--

The completion ceremony was successfully held, and the guests enjoyed themselves.

Charlotte returned to the Liyue Newspaper Office with all the photos she had taken that day.

She is still the editor-in-chief, after all.

After working with everyone at the newspaper office to finish tomorrow's newspaper sections, Charlotte took the sample newspaper and went to Moon Sea Pavilion.

Lady Ningguang takes school matters very seriously, so today's newspaper needs to be reviewed by her first to see if she is satisfied.

Charlotte navigated the corridor with practiced ease, arrived at the office at the back, and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Yes."

Charlotte went into the office and closed the door.

Ningguang sat behind the table. She seemed to have just returned from Qunyu Pavilion, still wearing her gorgeous dress.

"Lord Ningguang, the content of the newspaper has been tentatively finalized. Would you like to see if there are any areas that need to be modified?"

"it is good."

Charlotte handed over the sample copy.

Ningguang lowered her head and carefully flipped through the pages.

A short while later, Ningguang raised her head, a satisfied smile on her face. "Very good, let's start the seal directly like this."

"Ok."

Charlotte nodded.

Her expression hesitated for a moment.

Ningguang, observing her expression, asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Yes... Lady Ningguang, I didn't actually participate in the editing of today's newspaper; I only provided the photos."

"Oh?"

"So, this newspaper is actually a report card submitted by the new reporters and editors of Liyue Newspaper after these days of learning. Since you are satisfied with it, it means that my work has been successfully completed."
