Chapter 81: Atonement
In the president's office, Yin Dong sat in his office chair with his head down, looking at the document in front of him.
Yang Ming stood in front of his desk, his face trembling with fear. "Boss Yin, I received your instructions as soon as I landed in Haicheng, and I rushed back immediately. I'm truly ashamed that this happened. It's all my fault. My wife has an extreme personality, is suspicious, and is incredibly bold. It was my momentary negligence that caused little... Jiang Yuan to suffer. I support you in calling the police. It's a good opportunity to teach her a lesson, to scare her, and teach her to be more restrained."
After he finished speaking, he slowly raised his eyes to look at Yin Dong's face, and saw that he was signing the document in front of him with a normal expression, and he didn't seem moved at all.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, "I don't know where she got those rumors from, but she actually dared to come to the company and attack Jiang Yuan. This crazy woman is really bold and has the audacity to do something stupid. I just got off the plane and rushed to the company. I wanted to come to you to atone for my sins and check on Jiang Yuan. I wonder how she is doing and if she needs to go to the hospital for a checkup?"
Yang Ming was telling the truth. He hadn't even been to the police station yet. He only learned about what happened over the phone. He only knew that his wife had beaten Jiang Yuan, but he didn't know to what extent, which was why the police were called.
In the past, the company had always dealt with such matters internally, making a big deal out of a small matter and trying not to publicize it externally.
As soon as he finished speaking, the pen in Yin Dong's hand was thrown onto the table with a "bang". "You mean that not being able to go to the hospital is considered a light punishment?"
Yin Dong suddenly spoke, and Yang Ming shuddered with fear: "Boss Yin, that's not what I meant. I really don't mean that. Let alone going to the hospital, even touching Jiang Yuan's finger is a crime. Jiang Yuan is an innocent girl, and it really makes me sad that she has suffered such an unjust accusation. It's fine for my wife to be so arrogant at home, but she came here to cause trouble. I want to slap her..."
Yin Dong leaned back in his chair and calmly interrupted him, "You feel sorry for her? How do you feel sorry for her?"
Yang Ming suddenly raised his eyes, his face pale with panic. In his haste to explain, he stumbled over his words. "No, that's not what I meant, President Yin. I don't have any feelings for Xiao Jiang like that. I can assure you, I've never had any improper thoughts about her. I only found out last night that people in the company were spreading some nonsense behind my back. I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep all night. I thought I would come back to the company today and find out who was spreading these rumors. I didn't expect this to happen before I could clarify it."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Yin Dong nervously again. Seeing that his expression was still unrecognizable, he quickly added, "Boss Yin, you must believe me. Even if I had the courage of heaven, I wouldn't dare touch the people you care about."
If Yang Ming had not been forced into a panic, he would not have said this explicitly. After all, he was not sure about Yin Dong's attitude towards Jiang Yuan before, but now it seems that his guesses were correct.
Yin Dong's calm eyes finally showed a ripple, and he said with a hint of displeasure: "You are good at guessing my thoughts."
Yang Ming was sweating profusely. "Boss Yin, I've worked with you for so many years. I don't need to bother figuring out what you like. I have some understanding of your preferences."
Yin Dong's tone remained unchanged: "How do you know that I care about her?"
Yang Ming was clearly standing on flat ground, yet he felt as if he were walking a tightrope. He summoned his emotional intelligence, choosing his words carefully. "I may not be right, but Jiang Yuan is not only beautiful, but also very smart, intelligent, and professionally competent. Last time, Mr. Zhang wanted to match her with his son. A good woman is sought after by all. It's only natural that you like her. She and you are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
"A good match?"
Yin Dong lowered his eyes and snorted, mockingly saying, "You're so smart! Your flattery skills are over the top."
