"The treatment at the Golden Dragon Group is certainly commendable, but may I ask what you mean by that, Lin Dong?" Wang Jin felt a bit flustered when Lin Mei suddenly directed her question at him. However, he kept reminding himself not to show any signs of weakness; otherwise, it would be disastrous. Drawing on the experience he had accumulated over the years, Wang Jin mustered his courage and replied defiantly.
"Haha... The company has indeed trained you to be quite eloquent, Wang Jin. Look at this," Lin Mei said, her frustration turning into a mocking smile as she handed a USB drive to Xiao Ya, signaling her to play its contents for everyone to see.
As Xiao Ya operated the device, everyone finally got a clear view of Wang Jin's true nature. Soon, he was met with a chorus of insults and fled in disgrace. He knew that his identity as a corporate spy had been exposed, and with irrefutable evidence against him, there was no choice but to run.
However, given the strength of the Golden Dragon Group, there was no way Wang Jin could escape; imprisonment was inevitable.
Watching Wang Jin flee in panic, everyone felt a mix of emotions. Some with ulterior motives secretly contemplated whether they had the guts to attempt becoming the next Wang Jin.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Lin Mei remained expressionless and announced the meeting adjourned. As she was leaving, she turned to a middle-aged man nearby and said, "Uncle Xiang, those who do wrong must face the consequences. Wouldn't you agree?"
"Yes, Miss. I know what to do; Wang Jin won't get away," replied Uncle Xiang, his eyes flashing with determination as he assured Lin Mei.
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Xiang." Lin Mei clearly trusted his abilities and only showed a hint of a smile when addressing him.
"It's no trouble at all; I'll take care of it right away." Uncle Xiang seemed to understand Lin Mei well and simply stated this before going off to handle matters.
Lin Feng realized that Uncle Xiang was likely an important figure within the Lin family; otherwise, given Lin Mei's temperament and status, she wouldn't treat him with such consideration.
Until now, Uncle Xiang was the only person Lin Feng had seen Lin Mei express gratitude towards by saying "thank you for your hard work."
Afterward, Lin Mei walked out of the conference room with Lin Feng and Xiao Ya. Only then did everyone else begin to leave their seats. Clearly, this incident had caused quite a stir within the Golden Dragon Group.
Lin Feng believed this was precisely the effect Lin Mei intended to create.
At the office door, Lin Mei suddenly turned to Lin Feng and said, "Lin Feng, come in with me for a moment."
After saying that, Lin Mei was the first to enter the office.
"Lin Feng, you didn't do anything like embezzling funds, did you?" Xiao Ya clearly still lingered on the iron-fisted scene of Lin Mei in the conference room earlier. A manager who could dismiss someone just like that, and it seemed she might have to pay a heavy price in the end. Xiao Ya appeared somewhat anxious.
"Don't worry, I have more than enough money to spend," Lin Feng replied with a somewhat speechless smile, then joked.
In fact, Lin Feng's current assets were indeed more than enough.
Once inside Lin Mei's office, Lin Feng directly asked, "Miss, is there something you need?"
"Hehe... what do you think?" At this moment, Lin Mei had completely changed from her previous iron-fisted demeanor in the conference room and smiled at Lin Feng.
"Uh, I definitely didn't embezzle any funds," Lin Feng responded with a laugh upon hearing this.
"Alright, tell me how you found that bastard Wang Jin's criminal records," Lin Mei asked since Lin Feng wasn't volunteering any information.
"Hehe... can we skip that part?" At this point, Lin Feng was actually bargaining with Lin Mei. It was probably only Lin Feng who could pull off something like this; others wouldn't dare.
"What do you think?" Lin Mei replied, amused by Lin Feng's audacity. Didn't he see her earlier iron-fisted side?
"Fine, that day when I went to dinner with you, Wang Jin gave me a strange look. I thought maybe I could annoy him a bit. So when his secretary wasn't around, I sneaked into his office and opened his computer. Unexpectedly, instead of annoying him, I stumbled upon some of his hidden secrets. I was worried you might accuse me of trespassing into a manager's office since I'm new here. So I figured it would be better to call a few friends and do some favors. That's why I handed the evidence over to Li Shuzhen, who also has issues with Wang Jin. But unexpectedly, she exposed me. That woman really can't be trusted," Lin Feng honestly recounted his motives for doing this without a single lie, so it could be considered a straightforward confession.
"Is it really that simple?" Lin Mei asked after hearing Lin Feng's reasonable explanation but still had some doubts.
"What else could it be?" Lin Feng replied.
"Oh, so you also have the ability to casually enter other people's offices?" Lin Mei inquired.
"Ha ha... mainly because his Secretary is unreliable, playing on the Computer during work hours, which allowed me to slip in. I feel like your Secretary should be dependable. Of course, now that you've hired an experienced assistant, the security level of your office has reached the highest standard; it's truly impregnable," Lin Feng continued to explain, though this explanation was somewhat off-topic.
This was also due to Lin Feng's own personality; he was not the type to be settled down.
"Ha ha... really? I've heard some people also play games during work hours," Lin Mei couldn't help but laugh at Lin Feng's remarks, but then she turned the conversation around and asked.
"Uh, no," Lin Feng was indeed caught off guard by Lin Mei's words. Someone must have snitched, and that person had to be Little Pepper.
"Alright, go out and get familiar with the process with Xiao Ya. Also, when you're playing games, make sure not to get caught by Xiao Ya," Lin Mei laughed when she saw Lin Feng looking like he intended to play dumb. She never really planned for him to take on the responsibilities of an assistant; as long as he didn't do anything excessive, it was fine by her.
Lin Feng naturally knew that Lin Mei had no intention of pursuing the matter of him playing games at work, so he left the office with a relaxed expression.
"Xiao Ya, you actually sold me out! I'm not taking you to the President's Private Room for meals anymore," as soon as he exited Lin Mei's office, Lin Feng immediately bombarded Xiao Ya. This girl was too straightforward; she had learned to report on him. Didn't she realize she was eating off his plate?
Ever since Lin Mei allowed Lin Feng to enter her exclusive Private Room for meals anytime, Xiao Ya often accompanied him for lunch. They would pack food for Lin Mei afterward. Of course, it was mainly because Lin Feng was too lazy to pack food for her after eating, and Xiao Ya enjoyed dining in Lin Mei's Private Room. So they hit it off; Lin Feng would take Xiao Ya in for meals while she packed food for Lin Mei afterward.
Theoretically speaking, Lin Feng wasn't qualified to bring someone into the Private Room for meals. However, since Xiao Ya had often come here before to serve food for Lin Mei, she was considered a familiar face. When Lin Feng brought her in, no one said anything.
But Lin Feng didn't expect that Xiao Ya would betray him and tell Lin Mei about him playing games at work. Well, although Lin Mei had no intention of pursuing it further, Lin Feng felt heartbroken for trusting the wrong person and thus complained to Xiao Ya.
"Lin Feng, I tell you, I never mentioned this to Sister Mei. You wouldn't have confessed, would you?" Xiao Ya looked at Lin Feng with a surprised expression and asked suspiciously.
"Uh, you didn't say? No way I would confess! Honesty brings leniency; I'd rather sit in jail forever! Alright then, back to work. Just now I wanted to see how trustworthy you are; very good, you passed! From now on, I'll take you along to eat in the President's Private Room," Lin Feng quickly realized he had been played by Lin Mei—a clever scheme of sowing discord.
Meanwhile, in the President's Office, Lin Mei couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh as she watched Lin Feng "interrogating" Xiao Ya outside. This guy was truly a character.
As a president, Lin Mei had always been very cautious and selective about her choice of Secretary. After much consideration, she finally chose Xiao Ya—a reliable and sharp-minded girl. However, initially, she wasn't entirely at ease. Therefore, she installed a miniature Camera outside her office; one reason was for supervision purposes and another so that she could know what was happening outside in case of any unexpected events.
The existence of the Camera was unknown even to Xiao Ya, let alone Lin Feng. So, when Lin Feng was playing games yesterday, Lin Mei was watching from the side.
Another day passed peacefully. Over the past few days, Lin Feng had been living a somewhat comfortable life, taking Lin Mei to work and back home every day, and spending the rest of his time playing games. Of course, sometimes he also engaged in some online discussions, enjoying himself quite a bit.
However, a week later, as usual, Lin Feng dropped Lin Mei off at Lin Family Manor and encountered Xiao Ya on his way home.
The little girl was standing on the cold street, hugging her arms tightly and trying to hail a taxi, but none of the cabs were stopping.
Upon closer inspection, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. The girl was completely soaked, her clothes were filthy, and she wasn't even wearing shoes. It was clear that she had run into some trouble.
Seeing this, Lin Feng quickly steered his car towards Xiao Ya, turned off the engine, and hurriedly got out. He called out after her, "Xiao Ya, what's wrong?"
Hearing footsteps behind her, Xiao Ya instinctively screamed and tried to run away, but was caught from behind by Lin Feng. He realized that she must have been startled by something.
"Xiao Ya, it's me, Brother Feng! What happened to you?" Lin Feng guessed the situation and immediately called out to her with deep concern in his voice.
Once held by Lin Feng, Xiao Ya calmed down a bit. Hearing his voice, she turned around and saw his worried face. This made her stop struggling and she buried herself in Lin Feng's embrace, bursting into tears.
Lin Feng didn't say anything for the moment; instead, he held Xiao Ya tightly. He gently patted her back, which was already dirty from her clothes, and reassured her, "It's okay. Brother Feng is here."
