Chapter 33 Yang Aihua's Failure
In the end, Lin Wanqing finished the translation ahead of time, still looking at Yang Aihua with the same posture and expression as before.
Yang Aihua suppressed her inner collapse and finally wrote the last word with trembling hands.
Finally, it was finally over. This moment was a relief for Yang Aihua.
After Team Leader Chen got their manuscripts, he began to copy them.
In fact, she was biased towards Yang Aihua in her heart. After all, they had worked together for so many years and they had some feelings for each other. But when she saw the translation manuscript submitted by Yang Aihua, she knew that Yang Aihua was bound to lose this time.
Lin Wanqing's translation was more concise and more fitting and smooth. Team leader Chen could only feel sorry for Yang Aihua in his heart.
Then she distributed the transcribed manuscripts and asked other people in the office to choose a more accurate translation based on the original.
To be fair, Lin Wanqing, Yang Aihua, Director Zhou, and Team Leader Chen stayed outside to avoid suspicion.
Liu Yali was the first to receive the translation manuscript.
"Of course, this is obviously from my sister Hua." Liu Yali said with a smile, "Look at how meaningful this translation is!"
"I also think this belongs to Sister Hua. Sister Hua is talented."
"I really hope to continue working with Sister Hua in the future, so that no one will hold us back."
Wan Jiajia snorted and covered her ears. Who said that the best translation must be Yang Aihua's? She thought it was Lin Wanqing!
"Let's all be careful and not choose a translator with poor skills in the end." Liu Yali looked at Wan Jiajia and shouted at the top of her voice, obviously targeting her.
"Don't be so indirect." Wan Jiajia slammed the table and stood up. "Let's make a bet. I bet on Lin Wanqing to win."
"Ten yuan bet, one year of sanitation duty. When you leave the factory, the first person you see is called a bastard. How's that?"
"Ah?" Liu Yali looked embarrassed. "Calling him a bastard, isn't that asking for a fight?"
"Aren't you best friends with your sister Hua and support her? Why are you scared? It seems like your relationship isn't that great." Wan Jiajia immediately pulled out ten yuan from her bag and slammed it on the table. "If you don't dare to bet, I will!"
"I'm betting on Lin Wanqing too!" Liu Wenting raised her hand and said with a smile, "But I don't have any money."
"I'll count you in," Wan Jiajia said readily. "I'll just pay you back later."
After saying that, she looked at Liu Yali and asked provocatively: "What about you? Do you dare?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Liu Yali snorted, "You'll definitely lose in the end!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and looked at her colleagues behind her, "Aren't you also rooting for Sister Hua to win?"
"Let's place a bet together, we can win money, and we won't have to be on duty anymore. How great is that?"
"Okay! I agree!"
Everyone in the room raised their hands in agreement.
"I bet Sister Hua will win!"
"Me too!"
"Ahahaha, I just want to see you lose. Do you dare to call others bastards?"
As a result, most people stood on Yang Aihua's side, only Wan Jiajia and Liu Wenting bet that Lin Wanqing would win.
Under the two manuscripts copied by Team Leader Chen, whoever supports it will sign. At a glance, one of the manuscripts is full of names, while the other is empty.
The contrast is particularly obvious.
Liu Yali handed the two translation manuscripts to Team Leader Chen.
She said with some pride, "The difference in translation quality between these two manuscripts is not even a little bit. Team leader, I'm sure some people won't be able to say anything now, right?"
"They are doing well, why are you taking their jobs? Miss Jiao should just stay home and be a prostitute, why do you have to take jobs from us working people?"
"It's hilarious that they want to make it known to everyone even though they have no ability."
Lin Wanqing didn't say anything, just looked at her indifferently. Instead, it was Team Leader Chen who felt embarrassed for her.
Most of the colleagues had already walked up to Yang Aihua, surrounded her, and started chattering and congratulating her.
"Sister Hua, your translation is really good. We will work together in the future. You must teach me more."
Yang Aihua smiled and said, "No problem."
"Sister Hua, everyone has witnessed your abilities and we all support you."
Did her colleagues notice her translation style and come to her right away to share the good news?
Yang Aihua gradually regained her confidence. She guessed that Lin Wanqing's translation was not very good, and she just pretended to be relaxed to put pressure on her.
Most of her colleagues gathered around her, and Yang Aihua liked the feeling of being surrounded.
"Thank you all for your support. We will work together in the future. Please take care of me!" Yang Aihua bowed sincerely to everyone for the first time.
Lin Wanqing stood behind them, neither discouraged nor discouraged. She simply asked calmly, "Team Leader Chen, can you announce the results now?"
Team leader Chen coughed and everyone fell silent.
“I will now announce the results.”
Team leader Chen glanced at Director Zhou, who nodded.
Yang Aihua felt like she couldn't breathe. She stared at Team Leader Chen, clenched her fists, and her heart seemed to be beating in her throat.
She heard the "boom, boom, boom" sound of her own heartbeat, and at the same time, she heard the three words "Lin Wanqing".
Everyone exclaimed, "What?"
Team leader Chen raised the manuscript in his hand and said, "This is the original manuscript translated by Lin Wanqing. Everyone can take a look."
Liu Yali didn't believe it at all. She was the first to grab the manuscript. She only took a look at it and thought to herself that it was over.
Someone quickly snatched it from her hand and began passing it around.
Yang Aihua stood there in a daze, she didn't believe it!
She grabbed Lin Wanqing's translation manuscript like a madman, staring at every word on it viciously.
It wasn't her translation. She dropped her hands in defeat. She had lost.
"Yang Aihua, I hope you can keep your promise. Losing is losing." Lin Wanqing looked at the two translated manuscripts and said sarcastically, "The contrast is so obvious, what else do you have to say? Don't make excuses this time saying you weren't well prepared."
Lin Wanqing put two translation manuscripts together. One of them did not have a colleague's signature, and it was glaringly empty.
"No, no, it's because of my recent health." Yang Aihua came to her senses and staggered to Director Zhou. "Director Zhou, there must be something wrong with my health, that's why I lost!"
"It's all Lin Wanqing's fault. She's been torturing me in various ways lately. My body really can't take it."
Yang Aihua burst into tears, her hands still clutching Director Zhou's sleeves tightly, "Please, Director Zhou, give me another chance."
"Sister-in-law, I didn't bully you. Don't put all the blame on me." Lin Wanqing looked at Director Zhou innocently. "Director Zhou, I feel wronged too."
Director Zhou sighed, pushed Yang Aihua away, and said, "Comrade Yang, you said before that you were not prepared, so something went wrong when translating for the Soviet representative. I can understand that."
"But this time, you weren't prepared. Did Lin Wanqing prepare? Yang Aihua, you're not as skilled as others. Don't make excuses."
Everyone then realized that something went wrong when Yang Aihua was proudly called away by Zhou Ke to serve as an interpreter for the Soviet representative, and it was Lin Wanqing who saved the situation in the end.
But they didn't know this before! They always thought that it was Yang Aihua who completed the translation task. If they had known that Yang Aihua was not capable, they would not have supported her so firmly this time.
What does Yang Aihua mean by deliberately not saying it?
Everyone began to complain. After all, it was Yang Aihua who gave them the illusion, and the bet they made ended up in failure.
"Sister Hua, why don't you explain clearly? It's a waste of Yali's money to lend you clothes."
Someone grumbled in dissatisfaction.
Yang Aihua didn't care about all this. She kept looking at Director Zhou with eager eyes and placed all her hopes on him.
"Actually, there's no need for you to be so embarrassed." Director Zhou sighed. "The organization has already figured out how to accommodate you."
"I came to this competition in the hope that you would be convinced."
The implication is, why make yourself so embarrassed?
Lin Wanqing looked down at Yang Aihua's translation and couldn't help but curl her lips.
Yang Aihua hasn't made any progress at all in all these years. Doesn't she see that Lin Wanqing is the one who needs this competition the most?
She needed to make everyone recognize her strength. Even if they didn't accept her, she had to convince them wholeheartedly. That was why Lin Wanqing made this suggestion to Director Zhou.
Does Yang Aihua think that she is still the fool who is being led by the nose?
"Sister-in-law, the results are out. I hope you can keep your promise and give up your seat." Lin Wanqing walked to the work desk that originally belonged to Yang Aihua and stood still.
"No!" Yang Aihua cried and shook her head, "Director Zhou, you won't give me a way out!"
"I can't live without this job! If you really fire me and send me home, I'll hang myself at the factory gate! I'll show everyone how cold-blooded you, Director Zhou, are. You don't care about the lives of your employees! You used backdoors just to settle your best friend's daughter! You're bending the law for personal gain!"
If she herself is not having a good time, then she will make everyone else suffer!
