Zhou Shuya, whose heart had been ashen, suddenly brightened up, and a crazy plan began to brew in her mind.
If she could get her hands on the recording, she could use it as an opportunity to kick Mingyao out!
Zhou Shuya made an excuse to ask Ni An to clean the office, while she secretly recorded the audio on her phone.
After obtaining the recording, Zhou Shuya was eager to expose it in front of all her colleagues.
A last shred of reason told her to stay calm. Zhou Shuya suppressed her inner rage and decided to find another opportunity to deliver a heavy blow to Mingyao.
At first, Zhou Shuya wanted to give the recording to Boss Wang, but she quickly gave up on the idea.
The project in Boss Wang's hands is crucial to Pei Siyu. No matter how much she dislikes Mingyao, she cannot harm the company's fundamental interests.
It wasn't until Zhou Shuya discovered Pei Siyu's different attitude towards her and Ming Yao that things changed.
They had known each other for longer, and she had given more to Pei Siyu.
Pei Siyu not only forgot all the good things she had done, but also spoke ill of her.
He even offered his concern to Mingyao, a green tea bitch who hadn't been there long, under the guise of being her superior.
Jealousy clouded Zhou Shuya's judgment, and in a fit of anger, she went to Boss Wang and handed him the recording.
Boss Wang didn't react much to the recording; instead, he mocked her, "Hmph, I didn't expect President Pei to keep such a low-class employee like you."
"If you can't compete through fair means, you resort to underhanded tactics?"
Mr. Wang was dismissive of this and kicked her out.
Just when Zhou Shuya was feeling utterly hopeless, Boss Wang suddenly changed his tune and came to terminate the contract in a menacing manner, carrying a recording.
Thinking of this, Zhou Shuya's lips twitched twice, and her smile became even more mocking.
The words Mr. Wang spoke so confidently back then still echoed in her ears, yet he himself took the opportunity to terminate the contract.
What a hypocritical old man.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Zhou Shuya's eyes as she looked coldly at Mingyao. "You spineless coward who only knows how to rely on men, now you know what you're getting your lesson, don't you?"
“It’s better to rely on yourself than on a man.” Zhou Shuya pursed her lips and sighed helplessly. “What’s the use of saying so much to a cancer like you? If you had listened to me earlier, you wouldn’t have had to threaten Boss Wang with the recording, and things wouldn’t have developed like this.”
Mingyao almost burst out laughing.
How could Zhou Shuya have the nerve to say such a thing?
Who wants to step on her to take down Boss Wang and become the great hero?
A chill crept into Mingyao's eyes, and her gaze toward Zhou Shuya held a hint of mockery.
Zhou Shuya pushed her into a pit of fire for her own selfish desires, but now she's trying to absolve herself of all responsibility.
How ridiculous.
Mingyao inwardly scoffed.
Is the mastermind behind everything trying to stand on moral high ground and criticize the victims?
Stop dreaming!
Mingyao sniffed her red nose and looked at Zhou Shuya with teary eyes. "Deputy supervisor, I didn't expect you to think of me like this."
She choked up, tears streaming down her face even more. "I always thought it was the deputy manager who gave me the opportunity to contribute to the company."
Zhou Shuya raised an eyebrow and looked at Ming Yao with disdain, "Is this all you've done for the company?"
She snorted, her face turning frosty. "Because of you, Boss Wang's project is gone, and the Haichang branch has become a laughing stock in Haidu!"
"No, no, I never intended for the company to become a laughing stock." Mingyao's face scrunched up like a bitter gourd as she stammered in defense, "I admit I'm a brainless pretty face, but I also have self-respect and self-love."
"Besides, I'm already married, my husband treats me very well, and I don't lack money. Why should I debase myself and become Mr. Wang's plaything?"
A small number of colleagues who were watching also thought that Mingyao's words made sense.
"Yeah, why would Su Xueya, who has no worries about food and clothing, become a mistress to that greasy fat man, Boss Wang?"
When Zhou Shuya heard a colleague speaking well of Mingyao, she glared at the person who spoke with a stern expression.
The colleague immediately fell silent.
Mingyao pouted, looking aggrieved, and said, "I've always idolized the deputy manager, but I never expected that the deputy manager..." She paused, "...the deputy manager has disappointed me so much."
Zhou Shuya's heart skipped a beat; her intuition told her that something was wrong.
"Su Xueya, the audio evidence is irrefutable. Don't try to deny it or fool everyone!"
"I didn't," Mingyao weakly defended herself. "Everyone heard the recording; it was Boss Wang who forced me."
She frowned, as if recalling the past, and continued in a trembling voice, "How could I, a woman, be a match for Boss Wang? And Boss Wang had promised me a contract, sob sob, how could I have known things would turn out like this?"
Mingyao's eyes were red from crying, and her frail body trembled.
Zhou Shuya coldly retorted, "Did you not know things would turn out this way, or did you know perfectly well and still play the coy game in front of Boss Wang?"
“I,” Mingyao said, choking back tears, “didn’t.”
Zhou Shuya chuckled, "No?"
She raised an eyebrow and said with a teasing smile, "If you didn't have one, why did you bring a recorder with you?"
As she spoke, Zhou Shuya took two steps closer, staring at Ming Yao with an imposing aura, "If not, why does Boss Wang keep saying that you threatened him?"
Mingyao took a timid half-step back and sobbed, "I have to face a man who is much stronger than me all by myself. Isn't it wrong to bring a recording device?"
"Boss Wang has already bullied me to the point of being arrogant, can't I fight back?"
Before Zhou Shuya could speak again, Mingyao, her voice trembling with tears, continued, "It was clearly Deputy Manager Zhou who wanted Boss Wang to sexually harass me, so why is it all my fault in the end?!"
These words caused an uproar. The colleagues stared wide-eyed at Mingyao and Zhou Shuya in disbelief.
Zhou Shuya froze, a flicker of panic crossing her eyes. "Nonsense!"
When she was secretly recording, she had already found a way to delete the parts about herself from the original audio!
"Su Xueya, don't even think about trying to smear me!"
Tears streamed down Mingyao's face. "I didn't smear anyone, I was telling the truth!"
Standing among her colleagues, Xia Kexing chimed in, "Su Xueya, we also really want to believe in you."
"But you can't just make things up without evidence; it's like throwing mud at someone without proof."
Xia Kexing may have spoken a fair and reasonable word, but in reality, he was stirring up trouble.
Mingyao's eyes flickered, and with tears welling up, she asked, "How do you know I just blurted it out?"
"Then show me the evidence." Xia Kexing chuckled dryly.
Zhou Shuya pursed her lips. "Yes, produce the evidence!"
Mingyao wiped away her tears and took out her phone. "The evidence is on my phone."
She looked at Zhou Shuya with teary eyes, a fleeting smile flashing across her aggrieved gaze.
Zhou Shuya happened to catch Mingyao's barely perceptible smile.
A buzzing sound filled her ears, and her face instantly paled a shade lower.
What exactly is Su Xueya planning?
Zhou Shuya curled her hands, feigning composure as she sneered, "Heh, I'd like to see what evidence you have."
Mingyao opened the backed-up audio file on her phone and played it again.
Luckily, she didn't delete the backup on her phone, otherwise she would be in deep trouble today.
