Chapter 214 Miss Lin and I are on the same side
cafes
Zhai Jin took a sip of coffee slowly and watched as a woman walked in wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of bloodshot eyes, and wrapped herself tightly.
When she came closer, a hoarse voice came out of her throat, "Are you Zhai Jin?"
Zhai Jin looked her up and down with a calm gaze, then nodded and motioned for her to sit opposite him.
Seeing this, Lin Pingwan sat down a little stiffly.
She hasn't left the house for a long time. A few months have passed in the blink of an eye, and it feels like a lifetime ago. Until now, she has not dared to show her face in public.
This time, he made sure that there was no one hiding in the corner outside the house before running out cautiously.
Although she is a free person, she has to worry all the time that someone will kill her and lives in fear all day long.
She glanced around the coffee shop warily, and after confirming that there were no strange people, she slowly took off her mask and baseball cap, revealing her face that looked several years older, and called a staff to order a cup of coffee.
"Ms. Lin hasn't had a good life since she left Jiang's! Be careful like this." Zhai Jin pulled up an inexplicable smile at the corner of his lips.
As timid as a mouse.
She had sent people to investigate Zhai Jin's information, and of course she knew that she was now living in hiding, so she deliberately provoked her.
As expected, a clear hatred emerged in Lin Pingwan's eyes. The joints where she was holding the phone lost their blood color and turned alarmingly white, which showed that she was using quite a lot of force.
Since her and Shi Quan's corruption was exposed, they were both arrested and taken to the public security bureau.
Fortunately, Shi Quan handled every account personally. She was at most a bystander and an insider, and did not handle it personally. When facing the police, she insisted that she knew nothing about it, so she was detained for 24 hours, which did not have much impact.
After she was released, she was fired from the company and her life was not easy. Shi Quan's wife brought people to her house and beat her up. The other party was powerful, so when she called the police, the call was perfunctorily suppressed.
I originally thought that I couldn't stay in Haishi anymore and wanted to go back to my hometown to develop.
But someone told her hometown that she was the lover of a married man. Her parents were ashamed to hold their heads up at home and threatened to sever all ties with her. She couldn't go back for fear of being criticized.
She could only hide in Hai City in shame, and her search for a new job was fruitless. No company in Hai City wanted her, and they didn't even give her a chance to interview.
Shi Quan's wife is more like a mad dog that bites people. No matter where she moves, she will find people around to spread what she did in the past, or find people to block her and slap her.
She went to call the police, but there were blind spots in the surveillance cameras all around, so she couldn't find any evidence and couldn't catch anyone.
It's not a pleasant feeling to know that danger is coming at any time, so now I don't dare to go out easily.
After a few breaths, she gradually calmed down. Her years of work experience had taught her to be patient and control her emotions. She drank most of the coffee that had just been served to her before she stopped.
Lin Pingwan glanced at Zhai Jin calmly, not understanding what the daughter of the Zhai Lin Group wanted to see her for.
Someone sent her a message yesterday, asking her to meet up at a coffee shop. He also revealed his identity and said that he would give her a lot of benefits. Only then did she go out at the risk of being beaten.
But after the two of them sat there for several minutes, she didn't say anything, pretending to be mysterious.
"Miss Zhai, did you ask me to come to this appointment just to mock me? If you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."
She didn't have the patience to deal with her in the cafe.
Every second you stay outside means a little more danger.
There was a hint of sarcasm in Zhai Jin's eyes. He was indeed frightened.
"It seems Miss Lin is a straightforward person. I'll be frank with you. I wonder if Miss Lin still remembers that Xu Xian openly slapped you in the face at the company half a year ago?"
Lin Pingwan's eyes instantly became sharp when she heard this, but her voice was very calm. "Why? Are you here to avenge her?"
All the grievances between her and Xu Xian had been written off when she was fired. What was Zhai Jin trying to do by looking for her now?
"Hate? Not really. I just don't like her. Miss Lin and I are on the same side." Zhai Jin snorted as if he had heard a huge joke.
"What do you want me to do?" Lin Pingwan looked at her warily.
They have grudges, what does it have to do with her, Lin Pingwan?
Could it be that Zhai Jin wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife?
She is not a fool who would allow others to do whatever they want for a little profit.
Now she has seen the reality clearly and dares not to make enemies easily, as she may end up being beheaded at any time.
Zhai Jin didn't miss the alertness in Lin Pingwan's eyes and said straight to the point, "I just want to know from you what's the grudge between you and Xu Xian?"
The information about Xu Xian shows that he is very cautious and rarely makes enemies with others, let alone making enemies in public.
She couldn't find out what the grudge was between them, but that didn't stop her from going to their house and asking them in person.
She is always driven by a strong premonition that the secret between Lin Pingwan and Xu Xian will bring her a huge surprise.
Lin Pingwan remained highly alert, not wanting to be easily tricked into giving in to anyone's questions, lest she suffer any loss. "I have no grudge against her. If Miss Zhai has nothing else to do, I will not accompany you."
As she spoke, she picked up her mask and hat and was about to stand up.
"As far as I know, Miss Lin hasn't found a job since she was fired by Jiang Corporation! I can arrange for you to work in the sales department of Zhai Lin Group as a manager." Zhai Jin said with a look of confidence as he stopped her action.
As she expected, Lin Pingwan was half-standing up and did not move her legs for a long time, obviously hesitant.
After hesitating for a while, she sat down again and said truthfully, "I'm afraid I can't help Miss Zhai with the grudge between her and me."
I don’t know how Xu Xian offended this rich girl?
The fact that she drugged Xu Xian was not enough to bring her down. Even if it became known to everyone in the Jiang Group, it would only be her reputation that would be ruined.
For Xu Xian, there was no harm at all. At most, he had to endure some rumors, which was not a big deal.
She's afraid she won't be able to get the position of sales manager.
Not only would her efforts be in vain, but she might even provoke Xu Xian to deal with her.
After all, they were the only two people who knew the whole story, and when the news got out, the first person Xu Xian found was her.
She was having a hard time right now and didn't want to add another destabilizing factor.
Zhai Jin frowned slightly when she heard this. Could it be that her guess was wrong?
But she didn't want to give up easily. During this period of time, she couldn't find Xu Xian's weaknesses or breakthroughs, so she didn't take any action.
Seeing that the wedding was approaching, she couldn't miss any useful information.
Thinking of this, Zhai Jin thought Lin Pingwan had some concerns, so he simply released his final trump card. "You probably don't know yet! The person in charge of the Jiang Group is holding a wedding next month. Guess who the bride will be?"
