Chapter 30: Never Betray Myself and Frame Others

“Even your colleague said so, what else do you have to say!” the lady was burning with a frenzy of rage.

Lin Chu ignored her. She looked at Zhu Jingjing and sneered, “Just because I’m quitting my job, you’re defaming me freely? Deep down we both knew who was the one who sold her body in exchange for business contracts. We started our internship at the same time, but I’ve never closed a business deal before. Wouldn’t I be suffering a loss if I’m really relying on selling my body to get business contracts? On the contrary, you kept closing one business deal after another. There was once I saw Zheng Hui’s Manager Low bending his arms around your shoulder in front of Home Inn ¹ and both of you walking in together. Do you really need me to make it clearer?”

“Everyone has his or her own desires, and what they’re willing to sacrifice to be successful in their own career is up to them. Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I didn’t say anything about it. You think that it’s worth it, so I’m in no position to point my fingers and judge. If my supervisor can see the effort that I’ve put in and let me stay, I’ll be happy. However, if he only cares about the end results, then I won’t feel sorry either, because I can never make the sacrifices as you did. I’ll feel sorry for you if you can’t be a permanent employee even after what you did. I strongly believe in having a clear conscience in everything I do, never betray myself and never framing others. Zhu Jingjing, please don’t frame me for all the nasty things you did. Do I need to explain in detail about the roles that you and You Weiwen played last night? Do we really have to make things ugly?”

When Zhu Jingjing was accusing Lin Chu, everyone in the office was looking at Lin Chu unpleasantly. Now that they had heard it from Lin Chu, Zhu Jingjing became the center of attention.

In fact, when everyone was listening to Zhu Jingjing talking about Lin Chu, they all thought that even though Lin Chu kept a low profile, she did not seem like a person with a messy private life. They could not perceive Lin Chu as the person that Zhu Jingjing described.

In contrast, everyone believed in Lin Chu more after listening to her. Compared to Lin Chu, Zhu Jingjing seemed like she was more capable of doing such things. Everyone was suspicious when she already closed a great number of business deals when she was only an intern. They knew how difficult it was to get a business contract. Moreover, she had a close relationship with You Weiwen, and he was always looking out for her. There were already a lot of rumors about them behind their backs.

After all, they were clearly aware of what kind of a person You Weiwen was.

Zhu Jingjing’s face took on a ghastly expression, then she said hurriedly, “You’re talking nonsense! I witnessed with my own eyes that you kept throwing yourself at Vice President Yao last night. He wanted to push you away, but it just so happened that Master Yan saw it. You ran into Master Yan’s arms, you were then crying out your false grievances to Master Yan. You framed it on Vice President Yao so that you could get away with this.”

Mrs. Yao was already not thinking straight because of her husband’s sudden unemployment, she was unwilling to believe that her husband betrayed her. She blindly put the blame on Lin Chu just so that she could feel better.

After listening to Zhu Jingjing, she rushed towards Lin Chu. Lin Chu forgot to put up her guard because she was overwhelmed by her anger towards Zhu Jingjing.

“How dare you speak of others when you have no sense of shame yourself? Follow me and explain everything!” Mrs. Yao grasped Lin Chu’s arm with all her strength, and in the process also tugged the few strands of Lin Chu’s hair that was around her arm, causing her scalp to be in pain.
