Chapter 1294: Start to cause trouble
After listening to Lian Yi's words, Lu You waved his hand and said:
"I thought it was a big deal, it's just a report! Give me the same report tomorrow."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to hold Lianyi's waist. Lianyi gently turned sideways to avoid Lu You's dirty hands, and then said with a smile on her face:
"Boss, when will you give me the raise you promised? You don't keep your word, which makes me feel like I have no future, so I'm not in the mood to have dinner with you."
When Lu You heard about the salary increase, he immediately withdrew his hands that were about to continue making trouble, then touched his hair and said perfunctorily:
"Lian Yi, didn't I tell you that I can only give you a raise if you make achievements? After all, you have been in the company for a short time and cannot be compared with the old employees. If I give you a raise, they will definitely not accept it. How can I manage the company in the future? It will be a mess!"
It sounded very high-sounding, but when Lianyi heard this, she immediately frowned, slammed the documents on the table, and began to speak in a sarcastic tone:
"You always use this trick to fool people. You don't even notice that there are still a few old employees in the company. You still want me to have dinner with you. How can you be so shameless? Am I after your beauty or your not washing your hair?"
"you"
Lu You didn't react for a moment. He was a little confused as to why the employee, who was usually as gentle as a little lamb, started to DISS him.
"Pah" Lianyi raised her hand and slapped away Lu You's outstretched finger, then looked up at Lu You and said:
"Okay, stop pretending to be so high and mighty in front of me. If you want to take advantage of me, you need to practice more. I won't tolerate it anymore."
Lian Yi turned hostile immediately, threw everything on the table to the ground, smashed the water cup, ruffled her hair, tore off her shirt, and slapped Lu You in the face while he was stunned, then shouted:
"You bastard! What are you doing? Don't try to threaten me with my job! I quit!"
Then he knocked Lu You to the ground and rushed out of the office.
Because it was lunch time, employees from other companies in the office building went out to eat in groups of three or four. Some people were too lazy to go out or work overtime, so they just ordered takeout. There was also a delivery man wearing a yellow vest in the corridor. The noise she made was so loud that she immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Especially when everyone saw the thin Lianyi rushing out in dishevel and tears, everyone smelled the scent of gossip, and some curious people directly turned on the onlooker mode and looked into the office where Lianyi ran out.
Lianyi ran to the police station in one breath and reported that her boss had used his position to sexually harass her and attempted to do indecent things to her. She cried so miserably that the female police officer handling the case felt very sympathetic.
Although she felt sympathy for the man, the female police officer was still very professional and asked in detail about what happened.
Lianyi wiped her tears and choked up as she recounted how Lu You harassed her.
“My parents died early, and I had to support myself after graduating from college, so I cherish this job very much.
It was better when I first joined the company because I was capable. In addition to my job as an accountant, I also served as an administrative clerk. My boss also promised to give me a raise if I did a good job.
Unfortunately, he hinted to me not long after that that he wanted to date me, but I was not stupid. How could a small boss like him fall in love with an orphan like me? I also knew my own limitations, so I clearly rejected my boss.
After that, the boss started to take the opportunity to get close to me and look for opportunities to touch me. I had already submitted my resignation, but she asked me to have lunch with her today. After I refused, she started to pull me and touch me, and I started to struggle.
But I had limited strength, and when I started yelling, he panicked, and when he pulled my clothes, I slapped him, knocked him down, and ran out. Many people saw it at the time, and there must have been surveillance cameras."
Lian Yi finished taking the statement, and Lu You was also invited over to assist in the investigation.
Lu You refused to admit it, but according to the police's investigation, the female employees on that floor said that Lu You really liked to touch pretty female employees, so everyone generally avoided him. Some people also stood up to say that Lu You had indeed blocked Lian Yi several times and that they had met, but Lian Yi always found an excuse to run away.
As to whether he was acting like a beast today, there is no concrete evidence yet, but Lianyi insisted that the other party had attempted to harass her. Lu You was so angry that he immediately hired a lawyer and wanted to go through legal procedures, refusing to plead guilty.
Lianyi finally decided to accept the settlement after being persuaded by the police. She was powerless and as long as Lu You gave her some compensation, she would choose to keep quiet. After all, there was no direct evidence to prove the other party's guilt.
The policewoman sighed. She also knew that this was the most favorable way to deal with the situation for the victim, because sexual harassment is indeed difficult to define. Some people have a strong sense of boundaries, but some people are more careless, and the parties involved think that this is just normal contact.
When Lian Yi saw Lu You and his lawyer, he stared at Lian Yi viciously and was about to threaten her, but was stopped by the lawyer, who then said kindly:
"Ms. Qiu, you should know that without direct evidence, it will be difficult for you to win the lawsuit against Mr. Lu. Moreover, with this prosecution record, when you look for a job in the future, I believe no company will be willing to hire an employee who sued the boss!"
Lian Yi listened to the lawyer's words, narrowed her eyes, then nodded and said seriously:
"Lawyer Pan, you are right. You can use your work to put pressure on an orphan like me. I can also use my identity and experience as an orphan to create public opinion and let Lu You be humiliated!
It doesn’t matter if I can’t win the lawsuit. As long as the fact exists, I will see how he can hire people, who is willing to marry him, who is willing to cooperate with him, and how his company can continue to operate.”
"You dare!!!"
Lu You almost jumped up, but was stopped by Lawyer Pan. His eyes flashed, he adjusted the frame of his glasses, and then slowed down his tone and said:
"Ms. Qiu, I don't think it's necessary to keep making such a fuss. It's not good to occupy public resources. After all, you are a woman. Even if everyone sympathizes with you now, you still have to survive in the future.
Not everyone in this society is on your side, and you don't have any solid evidence yet. Some people will reasonably suspect that you failed to seduce her, so you want to throw dirty water on Boss Lu."
Lianyi listened to what the lawyer named Pan said and looked at the other person straight in the eye this time. Although she did not see any ghosts following him, she clearly saw the black and foul air surrounding him, which showed that this man had also helped the evil.
"What Lawyer Pan said makes sense."
Lianyi nodded in agreement, then looked at Lu You with a serious look and said:
"Boss Lu, I wonder if you still remember the girl with a teardrop mole here?"
Lianyi said this and pointed two centimeters below the corner of her right eye.
Lu You was stunned for a moment and did not answer.
"You deceived her so badly, and she even got pregnant with your child. What a pity that two lives were lost!"
Lianyi's voice was faint, and then she shifted her gaze and met the eyes of the female ghost who followed Lu You.
