I already found out from the head nurse that it would take Deputy Director Wang a year and a half to fully recover from this skin lesion. Originally, the Second Light Industry Bureau Director was short of funds and planned to discharge him to recuperate slowly, but now that shrewish woman is causing trouble, he doesn't dare mention it. He can only stay in the hospital.
"To be honest, this guy is basically ruined. So, your garment factory has to take responsibility. He got injured here, and you just wiped your mouth and said it was nothing? That doesn't make sense!" The tigress had finally sorted out her thoughts at home when Director Liu reminded her again, and she realized that she had almost let her big client slip away.
"What are your conditions?" Qin Xiaoyu wanted to see just how big this lion's mouth really was.
"The Second Light Industry Bureau will cover the medical expenses, which is a good deal for you. But what about lost wages, nutrition expenses, and nursing care costs? Shouldn't you cover those too? And what about compensation for emotional distress? This person was traumatized, so we should pay some money!" This woman's thinking was very advanced, a veritable model of staged accidents. Qin Xiaoyu was filled with respect.
"Anything else?" Qin Xiaoyu urged her to finish speaking all at once.
"And..." The fat woman rolled her eyes, looking at Qin Xiaoyu calmly. Was she going to agree to compensation? This was too easy. She couldn't let her get away with it so easily.
"And another thing! He probably won't be able to do much in the future, so we'll have to keep hiring a nanny, and we'll have to budget for that. Also, I need to take care of him, so I can't go to work anymore. I'll apply for early medical retirement, and you can pay my salary."
"That's right. Anything else?" Qin Xiaoyu nodded and continued to ask.
"And..." The tigress panicked a little. There was more? Even with her thick skin, she couldn't bring herself to say it anymore.
"Yes, and another thing," Qin Xiaoyu said with a smile, "For example, will your child be affected by this and not be able to get into university? Then I'll have to be responsible for finding him a good job. If he can't find a girlfriend because he didn't go to university, will I have to compensate him with a female university student... By the way, will your elders' lifespan be shortened because of this? How much compensation should be paid per year?"
"You're playing me!" The fat woman finally understood that Qin Xiaoyu was mocking her, and she jumped up immediately. At the door, Factory Manager Fei had arranged for several skilled female workers, just in case something happened. Hearing the commotion, they rushed in and forced the fat woman back into a chair.
"Qin Xiaoyu! Don't push your luck! Let me tell you, I'm not someone to be trifled with. You're incredibly unlucky right now. Once you're with me, you won't be able to shake me off!" the fat woman cursed viciously.
“Indeed, you’re right. Your daily disturbances are definitely affecting our factory. Going to the police won’t help; it’s a private matter. Let’s see who can hold out longer.” Qin Xiaoyu still had a smile on her face. Seeing that she had made herself clear, the fat woman also stepped forward, her expression tense.
"Alright, you can all leave now. We'll talk this out ourselves." Qin Xiaoyu saw the suspicious female workers out the door and closed it behind her.
"Sister, your life wasn't originally like this, was it? Have you ever thought about how you, in your forties, would be disheveled and trying to extort money in front of hundreds of people? Shouldn't you be living a glamorous life, the wife of a bureau chief, respected wherever you go, and envied by your classmates and friends?"
Qin Xiaoyu's voice was very soft, but it was like a wake-up call. The fat woman was stunned, sitting blankly in the chair, without saying a word.
"How did I become like this?" The fat woman turned to Qin Xiaoyu and muttered to herself.
"Because of a dead man," Qin Xiaoyu said through gritted teeth.
"Do you think I don't hate him! I wish I could tear him to pieces!" the fat woman said bitterly.
"Here, big sister, let me show you something." Qin Xiaoyu took out her keys, opened her desk, took out a document, and handed a few pieces of paper to the fat woman.
This is the account of what happened that she had Xiaolin and the security guard compile; it's confidential, and nobody knows about it.
"This, this is real?" The fat woman's hands trembled uncontrollably.
At first, she also doubted the reason for Deputy Director Wang's injury, but the person involved and the inspection team insisted that he had drunk too much and accidentally fell into the dye vat, so she decided to believe it for the time being.
"Of course it's real. Why would I make a fake one for myself?"
"I don't believe it. If it were true, why didn't you hand it over to the Second Light Industry Bureau?"
"Sister, to be honest, I'm really soft-hearted. If I hand it over, Director Wang will be completely ruined. Think about it, the inspection team leader had an affair with a female worker, had an improper relationship in an abandoned workshop, and hid in a dye vat to avoid inspection... If these are reported, forget about medical expenses, I'm afraid he won't even keep his job."
"That damned bastard!" The fat woman was on the verge of tears.
"And another thing, if this is confirmed, where will you put your face? How will you ever be able to face anyone again? And that woman, won't she just jump into the river and commit suicide? Even though she's already left the factory, I still can't be too ruthless. If someone really dies, I'll feel guilty, right?" Qin Xiaoyu sighed, leaving the fat woman speechless.
"Young lady, you're really kind-hearted. Did you wipe up a whole bucket of shit that was dumped on you?"
"Big sister, I'm almost moved to tears by what you're saying. No one understands me except you!" Qin Xiaoyu grabbed the fat woman's hand.
"My heart is so heavy... You can't believe how pathetic my life is." The fat woman burst into tears.
"Big sister, I have a few words to say. Would you like to hear them?"
"Go ahead and tell me, I think you're the only one who understands."
"Although I haven't made this public, I can't stop these people from talking. Everyone knows what's going on, but we just don't say it out loud. Why would a perfectly healthy person be wearing only a tank top and shorts when they're taken to the hospital?"
"Girl, stop talking, I'm too ashamed to face anyone. I used to think he had been wronged and wanted to seek justice, but now I see, to hell with being wronged, it's me who's wronged, it's me!" The fat woman suddenly stood up and was about to rush out.
"Wait, big sister, where are you going?"
"I'll go to the hospital, I'll kill him, that'll save me the trouble!"
"Big sister, sit down and listen to me!" Qin Xiaoyu, with her small frame, really used a lot of effort to stop the fat woman.
"What else is there to say? My life is over. I'm all in his hands now. He won't get away with this!"
"Big sister! You're not done yet!" Qin Xiaoyu stamped her foot in frustration.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Did you get money from the Second Light Industry Bureau by making this scene?"
“What’s the use of getting money? He’ll need money for medical treatment anyway, and he’ll just end up going through all that trouble.”
"He's already like that, and you're still going to treat him?" Qin Xiaoyu asked with a sneer.
"I understand what you mean. But will he let me go?" the fat woman asked, her eyes darting around in confusion.
“China is so big, go far away. Your child is about to take the college entrance exam, and he’s doing great, take him with you. If your child is not up to par and follows his example, you’ll abandon him and not care about your child either. Find a place where no one knows you and start over. You have money, what are you afraid of?” Qin Xiaoyu’s words made the fat woman feel enlightened.
