Chapter 73: Doing Everything Possible to Save Yourself is the Right Path
She was helped up by Su Xin, and her confused voice rang in her ears.
"Sister Lin Yan, who did you offend? Who was that man just now?"
As early as the day Xing Yu returned to Longping, Lin Yan felt that something was wrong.
Just in case, she connected her phone's location with Su Xin's.
He also told Su Xin that she might have offended someone recently, and if he couldn't contact her, he should call the police immediately.
Fortunately, I called Su Xin when I got off work. Seeing that she hadn't returned home, I guess she called the police.
Lin Yan didn't explain too much and just passed it over in a few words.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk, Su Xin didn't ask any further.
After leaving the hotel, Su Xin said to her, "Sister Lin Yan, we have to go to the police station to take a statement now."
"No need to go." Lin Yan's heart was as clear as a mirror: "It's useless."
"Why?"
She had sought help from the police countless times because of what she had experienced in the past, hoping to find a ray of light in the darkness.
But her power was limited and she could not resist the deep-rooted oppression of power.
Finally, along with the haze of tears, it dissipated into a dark corner where no one cared...
Who is Xing Mo and what is the status of the Xing family? Even if he kills people or sets fires, the Xing family will find ways to protect him.
Not to mention such a trivial matter today.
This society treats ordinary people in such a realistic and helpless way.
"Let's go home." Lin Yan still didn't explain: "I'm tired."
On the way back in the taxi, Su Xin was still in shock and couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lin Yan, should we tell Brother Xing Yu about this?"
"Need not."
"Tell him he will protect you."
Lin Yan looked at her and confided her feelings.
"Su Xin, remember, never count on others to protect you. Whether in the workplace or in life, you must remain calm and strategic when encountering problems. Doing everything you can to save yourself is the best way. You yourself are the strongest barrier."
Su Xin blinked, her eyes shining with admiration.
"Sister Lin Yan, I've discovered that you're truly strong on the inside! You don't cry when you're sad, you don't argue when you're angry, and you don't make promises when you're happy. Unlike me, I curse when I'm deeply sad, I work when I'm furious, and I eat when I'm overjoyed..."
Lin Yan has always liked Su Xin's simple, relaxed, pure and carefree personality.
That was something she was extremely lacking.
It is also something that can never be found again after going through the vicissitudes of life.
"Okay." Lin Yan changed the subject: "Have you finished organizing the documents I gave you? I need them for the meeting tomorrow."
"I'm done sorting it out. It took me a whole day."
"That amount of work can be done in two or three hours. Your efficiency is too low. You need more practice."
"I understand. I will try my best."
"Su Xin, I'm very strict." Lin Yan said bluntly, "Master of Translation won't tolerate anyone who tries to fish in troubled waters. You only have three months to evaluate your performance. I've given you this opportunity, but whether you stay or not is up to you."
Su Xin patted her chest confidently: "Sister Lin Yan, don't worry! I will definitely not let you down!"
But the next day at work, Su Xin was scolded by Lin Yan in front of everyone at the meeting.
Just because she wrote the wrong time in the meeting document.
She returned to her workstation dejectedly, flipping through densely packed documents and muttering to herself, "My head hurts! Someone must be stealing my wisdom."
The short-haired female colleague sitting next to her came over and started talking to her.
"Su Xin, were you scolded? Director Lin is a notorious cold-blooded female devil in our company. She's just like that. A dog can't spit out ivory. Don't take it to heart. You'll be working as her assistant, and you'll have to endure a lot of hardships in the future. You have to get used to it!"
Su Xin glanced at her in confusion: "You are the one who can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, you idiot."
"Are you sick? I'm just reminding you kindly!"
Su Xin rolled her eyes and refused to fall for it: "Go away and stop trying to sow discord between me and Sister Lin Yan."
"Oh, yeah!" The short-haired woman glanced at her sarcastically, "You country bumpkin, you look like you're from out of town. I heard you got in through connections, so you must have someone protecting you! People like us who work so hard can't compare to you!"
Su Xin pursed her lips guiltily, stopped talking, and turned her gaze to the computer.
The next second, Lin Yan came out of the office, but she was not looking for her. Instead, she was walking towards General Manager Zhang's office.
In the office, Lin Yan and Zhu Yinqin sat opposite President Zhang with different auras.
Mr. Zhang didn't notice it and got straight to the point.
"Next week, a large-scale medical exchange meeting will be held at the Manzun Hotel. This is the first major task we have undertaken since cooperating with Manzun, and we must ensure that everything goes smoothly and satisfies the client."
"Lin Yan, you will be responsible for completing the translation and production of the relevant projects, laying a solid language bridge for this event."
"Yinqin, you will be responsible for coordinating internal and external resources and communicating with Manzun to ensure the smooth completion of the event. The two of you should work together well, and feel free to contact me if you have any questions."
After walking out of the office, Zhu Yinqin threw a stack of documents to Lin Yan and ordered her in a bossy tone.
"Could you please make these documents into a PowerPoint presentation and send it to me, Director Lin? I need it before tonight."
Lin Yan glanced at the document in her hand but didn't reach out to take it. "Vice President Zhu, this isn't my job. Your assistant should be the one making the PPT."
Zhu Yinqin still couldn't get over the two slaps she received that night: "Lin Yan, I'm your boss. You have to do whatever I tell you to do."
"I'm busy and don't have time." Lin Yan raised her chin towards Mr. Zhang's office. "If you have any objections, go to Mr. Zhang. Don't bother me."
After saying that, Lin Yan turned and left.
As soon as I sat down in the office, a message from Xing Yu popped up on WeChat on my phone.
[I'm back in Beijing. I'll pick you up from work tonight.]
Lin Yan stared at the phone screen for a long time but did not reply to the message.
Then get down to work.
Su Xin went home first in the evening, and she worked overtime until nine o'clock as usual.
Walking out of the company building, she saw a man in a white shirt.
He was smiling at her gently.
"Yan Yan."
Lin Yan subconsciously glanced around, but did not see Xing Yu, only Song Yanzheng in front of her.
She took a deep breath and stepped forward: "What's the matter?"
Song Yanzheng looked unusually relaxed: "Yan Yan, let me show you something."
Before Lin Yan could react, he had already taken out the divorce certificate.
"Yan Yan, I divorced Xing Yingxue today."
Lin Yan looked at the divorce certificate in his hand and was so shocked that she was speechless.
Song Yanzheng cut to the chase: "The baby in Xing Yingxue's belly is not mine. After careful negotiation with her, we decided to divorce peacefully."
Lin Yan was stunned again, unable to believe this ridiculous and outrageous fact.
But for some reason, I had no interest in asking him the details.
So, continue to remain silent.
Seeing that she had no reaction, Song Yanzheng smiled bitterly in his eyes: "Yan Yan, you really don't care about me at all now."
Lin Yan looked at an old friend calmly, "What are your plans for the future? If you leave the Xing family, you'll have to start all over again."
"Yan Yan, do you know? Some things require the pain of losing to appreciate their preciousness." Song Yanzheng walked towards her, carefully took her hand, his gentle eyes filled with a layer of mist, and then his hoarse voice reached her ears.
"Yan Yan, I regret this... I don't want anything anymore. All that vanity, fame, and wealth can't compare to you... I just want to be with you every day like before, to see your smile every day, to hear you call me 'Brother Yan Zheng' every day..."
Lin Yan pulled her hand away from his palm without hearing a single word.
"If the child in Xing Yingxue's belly was yours, would you still say these words to me?"
"Yes." Song Yanzheng said firmly, staring at her firmly: "Yan Yan, you are the only one in my heart from beginning to end. I have never loved her... Can you really not see? I... I have always liked you."
He likes her but still marries someone else.
Not necessarily that I like it.
"Song Yanzheng, I've come out of this."
"It's okay. This time, I'm the one walking towards you. Yanyan, I didn't even realize that I care about you more than I thought. I've been in so much pain since I lost you. It's really painful..."
Song Yanzheng slowly opened his arms, as if wanting to hug her, and looked at her with a pleading look she had never seen before.
"Yan Yan, come back, come back to me and let's start over... This time, I will never lose you again. I will always be with you, just like before, always and forever."
Before I could finish my words, my cell phone rang.
It was Xing Yu calling.
After she answered the call, a low, magnetic voice came from the other end.
"Come here. Don't hold him."
Turning her sight, she saw the dark figure leaning against the car door on the side of the road...
