Everything was once again heading in a direction that Qin Chen could not control. Qin Chen covered his head with his hands. After a long time, he raised his head and spoke in a firm tone.
"Take it away, son. I'll make it up to you. Five percent of the company, please?"
Fang Zhiyou stared at Qin Chen blankly, as if he had never known this person before.
"What are you talking about?" Fang Zhiyou laughed, thinking that Qin Chen's words were a bit ridiculous.
"The baby in my belly is yours! Don't you have any feelings at all? We are getting married next month, and the hotel and everything are already booked. And now you want to break up with me and give up the baby, Qin Chen, are you crazy?"
Qin Chen's eyes were unfocused. He nodded and said, "Just think of me as crazy. We can still negotiate compensation as long as you agree to abort the child."
"Okay." Fang Zhiyou stood up. "Thirty percent of the company's shares. I'll go to the hospital as soon as the contract is signed."
"How much?" Qin Chen looked at Fang Zhiyou in disbelief. "Are you crazy?"
"Yes, of course I am crazy. After all, you are already crazy. If I am not a little crazy, it seems that we are not compatible. You should think about it, but I must remind you that the child is getting older and older. Time waits for no one. If you delay any longer, you will not be able to abort the baby, and you will be a father forever."
After saying that, Fang Zhiyou picked up her bag and walked out of the room. She had to rush to school, so she had no time to grieve. She pulled a tissue from her bag and faced the elevator mirror, wiping away the tears on her face, trying not to ruin her makeup. She took a deep breath and encouraged herself.
"He's just a bitch, so what if I'm gone? There are plenty of other men waiting for me. Money is the most important thing."
…
When Lin Sui opened her eyes again, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning. She didn't know that Qin Chen had undergone earth-shaking changes while she was asleep. She got up and washed as usual. She hadn't worked properly for many days. She estimated that if she didn't work hard, she would lose her job.
Zhou Dang had probably left long ago. In the hazy morning, she felt Zhou Dang kissing her cheek. Remembering that Zhou Dang had actually said he loved her last night, Lin Sui got goose bumps all over her body.
She refused to believe that Zhou Dang loved her. Loving someone was not like that. She preferred to believe that Zhou Dang's constant torture of her had made him accustomed to it, and that was why he didn't want to lose her.
The cell phone vibrated, Lin Sui picked it up and found that it was Qin Chen calling her.
Where did he get her phone number? She and Qin Chen have always been in touch via WeChat.
Without caring about the question, she quickly answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Lin Sui, I've thought carefully about what you said last night. I just broke up with Fang Zhiyou. Give me your card number and I'll transfer one million to you. You can give it back to Zhou Dang. If he thinks it's not enough, he can add to it. Then you can get a divorce and we can get married."
"What?" The facial cleanser in Lin Sui's hand fell to the ground.
"Do you need me to repeat it again?" Qin Chen's tone was a little funny. He knew that if he suddenly threw all these decisions at Lin Sui, Lin Sui would definitely be confused.
"No, that's not necessary." Lin Sui didn't know what to say anymore.
"Well, then tell me, will you follow my plan?" Qin Chen said in a persuasive tone.
"Hmm..." Lin Sui dragged out the words, thinking, "I want to tell you, things are not as simple as you think, Qin Chen, I, I want to use the money I earned to pay back Zhou Dang..."
"What do you mean?" Qin Chen's voice rose an octave.
"What I mean is that I won't use the money you help me, but I promise you that once I save enough money, I will file for divorce immediately!"
Beep, beep, beep...
Qin Chen hung up the phone.
Lin Sui looked at the phone that had returned to its original page, and a deep feeling of powerlessness came over him.
But it was almost noon, and Lin Sui had no time to be sad. She had to go to the company today. Even if she had to go undercover as a drinking companion, she hadn't been to work for several days, and it would be inappropriate if she didn't go.
The drive to the company was smooth and it was already lunchtime. Lin Sui was still thinking that if Wang Jinjin wanted to treat her to a meal again, she could just treat him. After all, the money she earned from three days of drinking was equivalent to several months' salary.
However, when he arrived at the company, Lin Sui felt something was wrong.
There were only a few people left from other departments. Even at lunch time, it shouldn't be so deserted. When she arrived at their group's office, she was even more surprised. There were large areas of empty desks, and Wang Jinjin was also packing up.
"What's wrong? What happened? Wang Jinjin?"
Lin Sui quickly ran over and asked Wang Jinjin.
"Ha, why are you here? I thought you had received the gift package a long time ago." Wang Jinjin looked surprised when she saw Lin Sui.
"What big gift package? What does it mean?"
"We were all laid off, including Big Wang. The company cut our new media line, leaving no one behind."
Lin Sui slumped in his chair. "No way, no one informed me?"
"I was just too busy and forgot. It was only a matter of a couple of days, after all." Wang Jinjin pointed towards Big Wang's office. "Look, she's still in the office. Go ask her. Don't forget to get the compensation."
"Okay, thank you." After Lin Sui thanked Wang Jinjin, he quickly went to find Lao Wang.
When Big Wang saw her, he cried out and covered his head.
"I've been so busy these past two days that I forgot to tell you that your manuscript can't be published. Our department is completely wiped out. You'll have to go find HR and sign a contract to get compensation. Don't worry, everyone gets n+1. This is a very benevolent company."
"Are we unemployed just like that?" Lin Sui still refused to believe it.
"The overall environment is not good now, and layoffs are happening everywhere. You should have heard about it. It's not surprising that it's our turn. You can just look for another job. It will definitely be easier for you than for me. I'm old, and I definitely don't want to work at the grassroots level. No leader is willing to hire me, so I have to think about my way out." Lao Wang smiled, looking very bleak.
"It's not easy for me to find a job either. I've been here since I graduated, for five years. I don't even know what the world outside is like." Lin Sui also smiled bitterly.
"Go and collect your compensation quickly. The sooner you sign, the sooner you'll feel at ease." Big Wang waved her hand, and Lin Sui saw tears in her eyes.
"Well, goodbye, editor-in-chief." Lin Sui also waved her hand. She knew that after this farewell, she might never see him again in this life.
The connection between people is so fragile.
When she arrived at the Human Resources Department, everything happened incredibly fast. Lin Sui looked at her compensation amount, 6.5 months' salary, which was a considerable figure. She wondered if God was helping her. With this money, she could completely pay off the debt she owed Zhou Dang.
