After the interview, the HR manager escorted Song Mai downstairs.

"Ms. Song, you will be notified of the interview results within this week. Please keep your phone accessible."

Song Mai nodded, said goodbye to the HR manager, and left.

In the following days, Han Shanyu went to Yunxing Group almost every spare moment.

However, Chu Xing was either away on business or in a meeting every time, and he didn't even get to see Chu Xing's face for a whole week.

This week has been chaotic for Xunyi, with its stock price plummeting and shareholders starting to sell their shares at low prices.

Unfortunately, everyone knows what was going on with Xunyi at that time, and nobody was buying their stock.

In just one week, Han Shanyu's hair turned white from worry. He really felt that if things continued like this, he would be completely ruined before the company even went bankrupt.

Finally, when Han Shanyu arrived in Yunxing again on Friday, Assistant Lu stood in front of him with a smile.

"Mr. Han, would you be interested in discussing this?"

Upon hearing this, Han Shanyu felt an urge to cry.

He had finally waited for this day.

He nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"

Assistant Lu sat down opposite him and slowly poured Han Shanyu a cup of tea.

Han Shanyu was in no mood for drinking. He eagerly awaited Assistant Lu's reply.

"It's not that Mr. Yun intentionally made things difficult for you, Mr. Han, but the people from your company have really gone too far. I wonder if you've ever heard of Song Mai?"

Han Shanyu felt the name was somewhat familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it seemed to be a girl he had promoted before.

Is there something wrong with her?

Assistant Lu smiled:

"Of course she has no problem. Miss Song is a friend of Mr. Yun. She used to work as a translator in your company's Spanish department. She was maliciously slandered and framed by people from your company many times. Miss Song is very generous. After proving her innocence, she let it go and didn't hold it against you. But recently, someone in your company has been dishonest and sold the information of your company's new upcoming project, which caused your company to lose the contract and suffer a loss of several million."

This incident was framed against Ms. Song. Ms. Song repeatedly requested time from your company to investigate and prove her innocence, but your company dismissed and blacklisted her without explanation, completely ruining her future career.

Upon hearing these words, Han Shanyu finally understood why Chu Xing had done this.

He was puzzled, though: "She and Master Yun are friends, so why has Miss Song never mentioned it?"

Assistant Lu calmly took a sip of tea.

"Miss Song has always been low-key and doesn't like to be treated favorably because of her relationship with Master Yun. But she didn't expect that this would give you the opportunity to bully her."

Han Shanyu's impression of Song Mai was neither particularly deep nor superficial.

He had always thought Song Mai was a dedicated and highly professional employee, which was why he personally promoted her. He never expected that she had such a connection.

If he had known earlier, he would have treated Song Mai with great respect.

Assistant Lu smiled and continued, "As far as I know, she was almost ruined by an employee of your company. After your company found out, they initially said they would fire that person, but later they only deducted their year-end bonus. I didn't realize your company was so shady."

At this point, Assistant Lu gave Han Shanyu a deep look, and Han Shanyu immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

His shirt was already soaked with cold sweat, and now it clung to his body, making him feel as if he were being imprisoned invisibly, which was extremely uncomfortable.

He took two sips of tea, his lips turning slightly purple.

"I...I don't know anything about these things..."

Assistant Lu poured some more tea into his empty cup:

"Mr. Han must know very well that Ms. Song Mai doesn't need to prove herself. She is Mr. Yun's friend. If she wanted to, she could use this relationship and status to gain countless benefits. There's no need for her to do such despicable things. As for the matter of selling client information for money, it's utterly ridiculous. I want to ask you, if the entire department knew that you were the only one who had a certain set of information, and you could make a profit by selling it, would you sell it?"

Han Shanyu shook his head without thinking.

"No, it's fine if others don't find out, but as soon as they discover the leak, they'll immediately think it was me. I won't be able to explain it clearly. If the company finds out I betrayed them, my fate will be terrible. And it's impossible to keep something like this completely secret. It will definitely be discovered. If I do it, it's like shooting myself in the foot."

Upon hearing this, Assistant Lu looked at him leisurely without saying anything, but the meaning was already very clear.

If he can understand something, why can't Song Mai understand it?

The more information you have in your own hands, the less likely you are to do such a thing.

On the contrary, those who lack information will act recklessly, because all they need to do is solve the problem of obtaining the information. As long as they have the information, they can make money, and someone else will take the blame. Why not?

"I don't need to tell you what to do next, do I?"

Han Shanyu immediately stood up, his gaze deep and serious.

"Don't worry, I know what to do. Please explain to Master Yun on my behalf that I really didn't know the specifics of this matter. Now that I know, I will definitely take the appropriate stance and ask him to wait and see. I will definitely give him and Miss Song an explanation!"

After saying these words, Han Shanyu left.

Upon returning to the company, Han Shanyu flew into a rage, ordering a thorough investigation into the matter and specifically demanding that the person who helped Zheng Yao change the dismissal decision be found.

That same afternoon, while Song Mai was watering flowers in the yard, she received a call from a short number.

She wiped her hands and took her phone out of her pocket.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Is this Miss Song Mai?"

Song Mai initially thought it might be a sales or advertising call, and was about to say a few words and hang up when she heard the person say:

"This is the Human Resources Department of Yunxing Group. Congratulations on successfully passing the preliminary interview. Please report to the Human Resources Department on the 5th floor of the Yunxing Group office building at 9:00 AM next Monday. An offer email will be sent to your inbox shortly afterward. Please check and sign for it. Also, please bring all the required materials as specified in the email."

Upon hearing this, Song Mai's heart nearly leaped out of her chest. She took several deep breaths to calm herself down.

"Okay, I'll be there on time, thank you."

Perhaps she was too excited, because her brain was congested with blood, and she seemed not to hear what the other person was saying at all.

The phrase "Congratulations on passing the interview" kept echoing in her mind. Relying on muscle memory, she exchanged a few polite words with the other party, hung up the phone, and felt as if she were in a dream, as if everything was unreal.
