Chapter 34: Accept the loss! Take the money!
Director Zhou has been a leader for so many years and he has seen all kinds of people.
He said nonchalantly, "Comrade Aihua, you need evidence to speak. You can't slander people."
"I've been telling you all along, the factory won't ignore you. What's the point of you making such a fuss?"
Director Zhou was intimidating without being angry, his gaze steady and oppressive. "In that case, you should go home and wait for further notice."
So this is how the superior looks when he is angry. Yang Aihua felt her body go cold when she saw Director Zhou's gaze.
"No, I won't make trouble anymore!" Yang Aihua's hands were shaking as she was about to kneel down before Director Zhou. "Director Zhou, I really know I was wrong. I misunderstood you! Please give me another chance!"
Director Zhou grabbed Yang Aihua and frowned, "Don't kneel down in front of me, I can't bear it!"
"Director Zhou, ultimately this matter is also my fault." Lin Wanqing also reached out to pull Yang Aihua, "It was me who didn't explain it clearly to my sister-in-law, which exacerbated the conflict."
"It's my fault. I didn't consider my sister-in-law's feelings." Lin Wanqing lowered her eyes and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't hold a grudge against me. I apologize to you."
Lin Wanqing did it on purpose. She had no intention of resolving the matter peacefully from the beginning. She only wanted to make it as sharp as possible.
Lin Wanqing deliberately provoked Yang Aihua so that at this moment, Yang Aihua could kneel in front of everyone without any dignity.
The more trouble Yang Aihua makes, the more disadvantageous it will be for her, and in the end, it will become an arrow shot at herself.
It was not until this moment that Yang Aihua understood.
She was still kneeling in front of Director Zhou, her eyes bloodshot from crying. She looked at Lin Wanqing's hypocritical face and felt like she was struck by lightning.
Yes, if Lin Wanqing wanted to take her job, she could obviously find her leader and ask him to talk to her and resolve the matter quietly.
But Lin Wanqing was determined to snatch her away openly, tripping her up in life, torturing her, and leaving her with no energy to deal with work. She caught her off guard, confused her mind, and finally lost all her face.
"Sister-in-law, we are still a family." Lin Wanqing's eyes were red with hypocrisy, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Wait until the dust settles before pretending to be a good person. Where is the aggressive Lin Wanqing from before?
Yang Aihua stood up from the ground and pushed Lin Wanqing's hand away. "It's my fault. I deserve it. I'm not as skilled as others, and I'm being unreasonable."
She knew that if she continued to make a fuss, people would think she couldn't afford to lose and she would be laughed at.
She used to present herself to her colleagues as someone with self-respect and backbone, but now she really has lost all her pride.
Lin Wanqing withdrew her hand, shook it off in disgust, and said nothing more.
Director Zhou lowered his eyes, suppressing the emotions in them, making it impossible to read. "Forget it. You can make a self-criticism at the meeting later, and I'll let it go."
"You can continue to work in the translation department, but only as a temporary worker."
After Director Zhou said this, he looked Yang Aihua up and down as if giving her a warning.
Yang Aihua nodded with relief, "Thank you, Director Zhou."
From now on, she will no longer be a formal employee of this factory. Her salary will be cut in half and she will not have any benefits. More importantly, she is ranked lower than Lin Wanqing.
Just like before, Lin Wanqing was a lady and she was a servant, and they were always inferior to each other.
Director Zhou left, but Yang Aihua was still standing there in a daze.
Lin Wanqing chased after him and laughed sarcastically in a very soft voice as she passed by Yang Aihua.
Only she could hear it, but the next second Lin Wanqing brushed past, with a hint of provocation on her lips, and shouted: "Director Zhou, take care!"
Perhaps the atmosphere just now was too tense and no one dared to speak. Only when they were sure that this matter could finally come to an end did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"I was scared to death. Director Zhou was so calm even when he was angry. It was so oppressive." Wan Jiajia patted her chest with lingering fear.
Team leader Chen was the one whose heart was truly in his throat. He glanced at everyone and said, "Alright, hurry up and do what you need to do."
After Lin Wanqing sent Director Zhou back, she saw Yang Aihua still in a daze. She knocked on the table and said, "Sister-in-law, why don't you clean up your workstation as soon as possible?"
Lin Wanqing looked around and was very satisfied with this work station.
It has the best location in the office. It is not exposed to the sun and the lighting is good. There is a lamp above the head. It does not strain the eyes when it is cloudy or rainy and the light is insufficient.
Lin Wanqing urged her, and Yang Aihua couldn't pretend not to hear her, so she had to walk to her workstation in a trance and slowly pack up her things.
Everyone looked at her quietly.
"You and Yali can use the same desk for now. I'll arrange another one for you later." Team Leader Chen pointed at Liu Yali and said, "Help me."
Liu Yali then hurried over to help Yang Aihua move things.
"We are all colleagues from now on, so let's work hard." Team leader Chen simply said this at the end and quickly returned to his workstation.
Ever since she was tricked by Lin Wanqing, she has been very wary of Lin Wanqing and has made preparations not to disturb each other.
Lin Wanqing naturally noticed it and smiled at Team Leader Chen.
After all of Yang Aihua's things were moved away, Lin Wanqing sat down on the chair at her workstation and felt really comfortable.
Anything she snatched from the Zhang family would bring her unprecedented pleasure.
Yang Aihua sat next to Liu Yali, remaining silent. In a corner where no one could see her, she clenched her fists tightly.
As soon as the bell rang at noon, everyone rushed out with their lunch boxes.
Wan Jiajia took a quick step, spread her arms, and blocked the door.
"Comrades, have you forgotten something?" Wan Jiajia raised her chin towards Liu Yali. "I'm talking to you!"
"And you too!"
The few people who had bet on Yang Aihua to win were silent.
Liu Wenting was the happiest, "Wow."
Lin Wanqing didn't know what was going on. She walked up to Wan Jiajia and asked, "What happened?"
Wan Jiajia glanced at Lin Wanqing and said proudly, "We won big this time!"
"Someone made a bet with me, betting on who will win between you and Yang Aihua. The stakes are ten dollars, plus the contract to take care of the office's sanitation for a year, plus calling the first person you see when you go out a house a bastard!"
Wan Jiajia said that she couldn't help laughing in the end. Whenever she thought of Liu Yali calling someone a bastard, she wanted to laugh. Maybe she would really get beaten?
It's okay if it's someone in the same position, but if you call your boss a bastard, will you still be able to do this job in the future?
Lin Wanqing really felt embarrassed for these people.
"You're really a devil." Lin Wanqing praised Wan Jiajia in a low voice. Wan Jiajia winked at Lin Wanqing proudly, "You made me proud. It's worth my support."
"But, but..." Liu Yali's face flushed. "Forget about cleaning. I can save up ten dollars and give it to you."
"Can we cancel calling someone a bastard?"
Several colleagues who lost nodded together.
"That's so embarrassing." Liu Yali said with a sad face.
Liu Wenting was a timid person, so she stepped forward to act as a peacemaker. "Jia Jia, why don't we just forget about it?"
"Why should we just let it go? No way!"
Anyway, Wan Jiajia has made up her mind to teach those people a lesson.
"We have no money!" Someone immediately shook his head like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
Wan Jiajia spoke eloquently, "Just accept the loss, okay? How can you be so dishonest? No one wants to be friends with someone like you. You're not trustworthy!"
This person was unable to refute a single word and could only mutter, "Anyway, I don't have any money."
"Gambling is not allowed in the factory, don't you know?" Yang Aihua reached out to grab Wan Jiajia's hand in front of everyone, "Be careful or I'll report you!"
"When the time comes, we'll all be in trouble!"
The person standing behind Yang Aihua immediately felt confident, "Yes, gambling is not allowed in the factory at all."
Liu Wenting was also scared. She pulled Wan Jiajia and whispered, "Forget it!"
Yang Aihua and a group of people looked at Wan Jiajia with pride, wondering if she had the guts to go against the factory's organizational discipline.
"We can't just let this go! Besides, this isn't gambling at all!" Wan Jiajia stiffened her neck and tried to argue with them, but was stopped by Lin Wanqing.
She stood in the middle of the crowd and blinked at Yang Aihua.
"Sister-in-law." Lin Wanqing suddenly called Yang Aihua.
Yang Aihua immediately trembled with alertness, feeling that Lin Wanqing was staring at her again.
