Lured into the Abyss

Married for two years, my husband showered me with immense affection. A video, however, shattered my existing happiness.

As an anonymous 블랙mailer relentlessly extorted me, I unexpectedly ...

Chapter 128 Defending the Career

Lu Zhiyuan didn't answer, perhaps because he didn't expect me to stand him up.

I don't care whether he gets angry or complains.

I hung up the phone without any guilt and looked coldly at Lu Zhiyuan who was still waiting foolishly by the river.

To my surprise, he didn't explode.

Lu Zhiyuan remained in the posture of answering the phone. After standing for a long time, he lowered his head in disappointment and finally slowly lowered his arms.

A passerby passed by him.

He raised his head suddenly and looked around as if he was expecting something.

After a moment, Lu Zhiyuan turned around and left reluctantly, his steps a little heavy, and even his back revealed loneliness.

I was in a trance for a moment.

His current state did not seem like he was acting.

He seemed to really want to see me.

My heart trembled for only a moment. After Lu Zhiyuan left, I quickly left the riverside.

The next day, I decided to go to the company with Qiu Qiu.

Qiu Qiu blinked in surprise: "Didn't the company give you a holiday? Take this opportunity to rest at home for a few more days."

"Rest?" I laughed at myself and quickly put on my shoes. "If I rest any longer, I'll even lose my job!"

Yuan Yaxin used Zhao Xian to cause a scene in the company in order to destroy my reputation. She wished I would be fired from the company.

I just transferred from the administration department to sales.

Once I leave this company, all my years of experience will be in vain. No matter where I go, it will be like starting over, and I will never be able to get my current position.

What's more, information is shared within the industry, so my embarrassing behavior cannot be covered up.

Escaping is not the solution to the problem, I can't just sit there and wait for death.

My marriage can fail, but I can't let my career be a mess too.

I stood at the company door, urging Qiu Qiu to go up first, while I adjusted my mentality and prepared for the worst.

It's nothing more than the disdainful looks and whispers from my colleagues. After all, I'm not going to lose any weight, so I just need to keep a calm mind. If Yuan Yaxin can be so calm, I'm innocent. Sooner or later, they will focus on my abilities instead of these personal gossips.

I straightened my back and walked out of the elevator. As soon as I entered the company, I met Wang Xue.

"Sister Lan!" She greeted me, holding my arm as usual. "Sister Lan, we all know about your situation. Are you okay?"

My heart skipped a beat when I heard that.

Wang Xue, feeling uneasy, tensed up her face and suddenly became indignant. "Those former colleagues of yours were scumbags! They were so cruel, they were bound to get their comeuppance! It's a good thing I joined VC right after graduation and met such kind women like you. Otherwise, it would have been truly disgusting!"

I looked at Wang Xue in surprise. I didn't expect her to defend me so firmly.

At this time, the chairman's assistant came over and smiled at me kindly: "Lanshan, the chairman specifically instructed that if you come to the company, you should go to his office to see him."

I looked at the assistant in surprise and pointed at myself in disbelief.

The assistant smiled and nodded, and gently urged, "Come with me."

Only then did Wang Xue let me go and gave me an encouraging look.

I followed the assistant and for the first time felt that the road to the chairman's office was so long.

Has the video incident alarmed the chairman enough to make him come forward?

I have been in the company for many years, but my position is not high. I have only met the chairman at the company's collective meetings and have never had the opportunity to meet him privately.

Now that the chairman has contacted me privately, I'm terrified and even more afraid that he wants to persuade me to quit...
