"I didn't." Yu Xue interrupted Gao Ruhai in a moment of nervousness.

Gao Ruhai said sternly, "If it weren't for you, how would my son have seen a self-recommendation letter from a small coffee shop? He has absolutely no interest in coffee."

Yu Xue remained meek and submissive. "Chairman Gao, I don't know anything about this coffee shop. Manager Gao has many business dealings, not all of which are within my purview. I accept that I was unintentionally negligent. But I absolutely cannot accept the accusation that I sabotaged you."

"Speaking of which, Xue Qiandai is also the child of an old friend of mine," Gao Ruhai's voice softened considerably. "She's clever, quick-witted, and very likable. After what happened to her family, I should have looked out for them more. But now, it's only made things worse, straining the relationship between the two families even more. How am I supposed to explain this to my old friend now? And you..."

This is the final verdict.

Yu Xue closed her eyes, then opened them again, calm and composed: "Chairman Gao, I will obey any decision you make. And I will not utter a single word that should not be said. You can trust me, I know who my true benefactor is in my career."

Gao Ruhai gave her a deep look, then drank a cup of tea. "Go back. Your position will remain the same. Let me see your value."

"Yes." Yu Xue left Gao Ruhai's office, letting out a long sigh of relief; her back was completely soaked with sweat.

After she left the office, Gao Ruhai's personal assistant entered. "Chairman Gao, are you ready to make a move?"

Gao Ruhai was furious. "What are you doing? Don't you think Huading is already in such a mess? Everyone better stay put. The board of directors is watching."
