His voice was tinged with a hint of panic.
"The company went bankrupt? How is that possible?"
"Our technology was clearly..."
Wang Lan suddenly turned around.
"How dare you show your face here?"
She pointed at Eric, her voice sharp.
"If it weren't for you stealing company secrets, we wouldn't be in this situation..."
"You're full of it!"
Eric shouted back angrily.
"It was you who embezzled funds!"
"If it weren't for you, our cash flow wouldn't have collapsed!"
The tension between the two was palpable.
They accused each other, their true colors laid bare. President Wang watched the scene unfold, a flicker of disgust crossing his eyes.
"Enough!"
He stood up abruptly.
"You two useless fools!"
"You've ruined my hard work!"
President Wang's roar was deafening.
"I will call the police!"
"I'll have you all thrown in jail!"
Eric's face changed dramatically.
He turned to run away.
President Wang was quick to react.
He grabbed Eric by the collar.
"Trying to escape?"
"Too late!"
President Wang sneered. "Fraud involving company funds!"
"This charge could land you in prison for years!"
Eric struggled.
"No... please don't..."
"I didn't do anything..."
President Wang remained unmoved.
He took out his phone.
"Hello, is this the police?"
"I want to report a crime..."
Wang Lan sensed that things were going south.
She also wanted to slip away quietly.
"Stop right there!"
President Wang shouted sternly.
"Do you think you can escape?"
Wang Lan trembled all over.
"Dad... I..."
President Wang looked at her coldly.
"Embezzlement!"
"I will sue you!"
"Not a penny will you take away!"
Wang Lan's face turned pale as she collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Dad... please..."
"I'm your daughter..."
President Wang closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"From now on..."
"I have no daughter like you."
As soon as the words left his mouth, the office door was pushed open again, and several police officers walked in.
"Mr. Wang, we received a report..."
President Wang nodded.
"Those two."
"Take them away."
The police stepped forward.
They handcuffed Eric and Wang Lan.
The two were escorted out.
Only President Wang remained in the office.
He slumped back into his chair.
He picked up the phone on the desk.
After a moment of hesitation,
he dialed a number.
"Hello, is this Director Lin?"
"It's me... President Wang..."
Lin Xia hung up the phone, her expression complex.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhang asked with concern.
Lin Xia shook her head. "It's nothing."
"Just... the unpredictability of life," she added.
She stood up and walked to the window, gazing down at the bustling city below.
"If I had known it would come to this, why did I bother in the first place?"
Lin Xia spoke softly, her voice tinged with a hint of sentiment.
Days later, on the assembly line of a factory, President Wang and Wang Lan stood side by side. President Wang had ultimately forgiven Wang Lan, while Eric was imprisoned for fraud.
Both were dressed in matching work uniforms, their hands encased in heavy gloves.
Before them lay an endless array of screws.
“Dad...” Wang Lan said quietly.
“Are we really going to work here for the rest of our lives?”
President Wang fell silent for a moment.
"This is the punishment we deserve," he said softly.
"We must pay the price for our mistakes."
Wang Lan lowered her head.
Tears fell onto the assembly line.
They mingled with the cold metal.
In the distance, the factory horn sounded.
"A new day has begun."
"May you remember this lesson."
"Kindness is more important than success."
"Honesty is more precious than intelligence."
President Wang and Wang Lan exchanged a glance.
Silently, he lowered his head.
A new day of work had begun.
This was their path to redemption.
It was also the start of a new life.
