Chapter 243 I'm rich now!
No sooner had Director Shu finished speaking than Old Master Song stood up in a huff and shouted, "Shut up! When did I ever say such a thing!"
“Grandpa Song,” Lin Xi stood up and said to Grandpa Song, “if you are not satisfied with me, I will go home and get the jade bracelet back to you right away. I won’t make things difficult for you.”
“Xixi, don’t listen to his nonsense,” Old Master Song said, breaking out in a cold sweat. He had finally managed to beg for the marriage to be returned, so how could he let others ruin it? “Since Grandpa gave you the jade bracelet, it means he has decided that you will be his granddaughter-in-law.”
"Really?" Lin Xi looked at Shu Xi suspiciously. "But Miss Shu said I have zero chance of marrying Song Xu, while she has a fifty percent chance of marrying into the Song family."
Both Grandpa Song and Song Qingshi looked at Shu Xi and Director Shu with strange eyes; this father and daughter had quite the ambition.
“Xixi, you are the daughter-in-law chosen by our Song family. No one else can even think about it,” Song Qingshi said. “Tomorrow we will contact your mother to discuss your engagement with Song Xu.”
"Uncle Song, there's no rush," Lin Xi smiled. "I'm not here to force you into marriage. I'm just curious where Miss Shu got the audacity to instigate her bodyguards to injure someone in the lobby on the first floor?"
"The reception hall on the first floor is the face of the company. If a distinguished guest comes and sees this scene, it may cause serious losses to the company."
“Miss Shu even made me kneel down and apologize,” Lin Xi said, then suddenly looked at Grandpa Song, “Grandpa Song, is she really not the granddaughter-in-law you’ve chosen?”
Old Master Song nearly fainted from exhaustion. He pounded his cane and yelled at Director Shu and his daughter, "Who gave you the audacity to do this? Do you think the company is your personal home?"
“Chairman Song, you’re angry too. Getting angry is bad for your health,” Director Shu said while wiping his sweat. “My Xixi is very sensible. She would never say or do such things.”
"Director Shu, didn't Miss Shu tell you that I recorded her?" Lin Xi asked suspiciously. "I recorded everything she said, and both she and Song Xu heard it."
He can remove the surveillance video, but they can't do anything about the recordings on her phone.
Lin Xi generously played the recording again, "Director Shu, did you hear that clearly? Would you like me to play it again?"
Director Shu turned around and glared at Shu Xi. She hadn't mentioned such an important matter, which put him in a very passive position.
“Ms. Lin, it’s all a misunderstanding,” Director Shu said with a fawning smile to Lin Xi. “My daughter is spoiled. Look at what happened today… whatever compensation you need, we’ll give it to you.”
Grandpa Song and Song Qingshi both looked at Lin Xi, wanting to know what kind of explanation she wanted. They would be satisfied as long as she was willing to speak.
The Song family's future daughter-in-law was wronged at the Song family's company. What kind of talk is this if word gets out!
Lin Xi scoffed inwardly. The way Director Shu asked the question made it seem like she was only being aggressive because of money. Did she really need his money now?
She smiled and said, "I don't need any compensation, I just want Miss Shu's sincere apology."
After Lin Xi finished speaking, everyone present was stunned. Director Shu was the first to react and hurriedly pushed Shu Xi in front of Lin Xi, "Xi Xi, quickly apologize to Miss Lin."
Shu Xi bit her lower lip and remained silent for a long time. Lin Xi didn't urge her either, and just waited quietly.
Director Shu slapped Shu Xi hard on the shoulder and scolded, "Apologize now! Do you even want to work for the company anymore?"
Shu Xi was forced to bow her head and apologize to Lin Xi: "I'm sorry."
Lin Xi didn't make things difficult for her anymore. "I accept your apology. I hope you won't have any more illusions about Song Xu in the future. It's best to keep your distance. I don't like him smelling like other people's perfume."
"Grandpa Song, Uncle Song, there's probably nothing more for me to do here," Lin Xi said to Grandpa Song and Song Qingshi. "I'll be leaving now."
"Alright! If anyone dares to bully you again, just tell Grandpa." Grandpa Song said.
"Thank you, Grandpa Song," Lin Xi suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Director Shu, "Director Shu's bodyguard was injured by my friend. Do you need me to pay for their medical expenses?"
"No need, no need," Director Shu quickly said, "They're just minor injuries."
Lin Xi nodded, called Jiang Nian, and left.
"Xixi, you looked so cool just now," Jiang Nian exclaimed after entering the elevator.
Lin Xi touched her face; it was a little hot. She was also quite excited. "Really? I was worried that I didn't perform well."
"But there's one thing I don't understand. Why did you accept that woman's apology so easily instead of kicking her out of the company?" Jiang Nian asked curiously.
"Because she's still useful, Song Xu needs her," Lin Xi explained.
If we kick Shuxi out of the company, then the previous budget review issues will have nothing to do with Shuxi, and it will be difficult to investigate. Let them continue to make mistakes.
Jiang Nian didn't understand these things, but if Lin Xi said it was useful, then it was useful.
When they reached Song Xu's office floor, the two came out. Lin Xi thought for a moment and said to Jiang Nian, "Nian Nian, I don't need you here anymore. Song Xu will take me home later."
"Huh?" Jiang Nian wanted to earn more money, but they let her leave so quickly.
Having been through similar experiences, Lin Xi could tell what Jiang Nian was thinking at a glance. She chuckled and said, "You can explain to my brother later. Aren't you paid by the hour?"
Jiang Nian nodded. "Because it's a part-time job."
Lin Xi took out her phone. "Let me add you as a friend. I can contact you directly in the future."
"Okay." Jiang Nian took out her phone and added Lin Xi as friends.
Lin Xi transferred 50,000 yuan directly to Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian's eyes widened when she saw the 50,000 yuan transfer on her phone screen. "Xi Xi, did you send this to the wrong person?"
“That’s right, it’s for you,” Lin Xi smiled. “Consider it a special reward for you. Thank you so much today. I would have been in big trouble if you hadn’t been here.”
"But this is my job, there's no reward for it." Jiang Nian felt a little guilty taking the money.
“Your skills deserve this bonus,” Lin Xi patted Jiang Nian’s arm. “Be sure to keep it. I’ll contact you directly next time I need it. Go now, bye.”
After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Nian finally clicked to accept payment. This taxi ride today was really worth it.
She walked out of the company gate with a big smile, and couldn't help but shout to the sky, "I'm rich now!"
People passing by looked at her in surprise. Jiang Nian laughed three times, walked to the roadside, and hailed a taxi.
After getting on the bus, she gave her home address, saying she was going back to take care of her parents.
