Chapter 160 Rumors
Chen Xiaohui sighed heavily, her expression revealing her disappointment, and said, "It's not that I'm generous, it's that I can't get it. You saw it just now, they won't give it to me."
“You can sue them,” Riemann said.
"Forget it, I don't want to get involved in these things. Let's just leave it at that and let everything pass. Wang Junfeng deserved what he got, and I've gotten my revenge. All the past grievances are wiped clean."
...
After resting at home for two days, Li Man went back to work. Actually, she wasn't seriously injured, and the stab she made herself wasn't deep. Her wounds had already healed, but because the case hadn't been decided yet, she had been recuperating.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped into the company, her colleagues began to give her strange looks and whisper among themselves:
"It's her. Have you seen the news? She killed someone."
"I watched it, it's terrifying."
"I heard he was stabbed eighteen times, that's brutal."
"She must have a grudge against that man, otherwise why would she have stabbed him so many times?"
"Do you guys think it's possible that the guy did *that* to her, which is why she hit him so hard?"
"Definitely. Otherwise, they wouldn't use such force under normal circumstances."
"I heard that the man who died was her friend's husband."
"My God, does that guy even go after his wife's friends?"
"I heard that the man also wanted to do *that* to his fourteen-year-old stepdaughter."
"My God! Who told you that? Is it true or false?"
Li Man walked and listened the whole way. When she heard them mention An Xin, she finally couldn't hold back anymore and shouted, "Enough! You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. How can you ruin a young girl's reputation like this? Don't you know that rumors can kill? What's the difference between you and murderers?"
As Li Man said this, her gaze remained fixed on the female colleague who had just mentioned An Xin.
The female colleague, embarrassed by Li Man's words, immediately retorted, "You're the murderer! What did I say? I didn't lie; this is the truth."
One of the more timid female colleagues quickly tugged at the clothes of the woman who had spoken, "Xiaona, stop talking. She's killed someone before. Don't make her angry, or she'll stab you with a knife."
Riemann was furious with these two women and retorted, "I'm not crazy. I'm not going to take a knife and start stabbing people when I get angry. And you too."
She pointed at Xiaona and said, "Did you see it? Were you there? Is what you're saying true? And who told you that?"
Xiao Na retorted, "I wasn't there in person, but it was on the news. If you don't believe me, go watch the news yourself. What are you arguing about here!"
Riemann hadn't read the news and didn't know what it was about. She had no rebuttal and turned to leave in anger, knowing she couldn't stay at the company any longer.
As soon as she stepped out the door, Li Man bumped into a fleshy wall, her nose was hit hard, and she winced in pain.
"How could you be so careless?" A slightly reproachful and helpless voice came from above.
Li Man covered her nose and looked up, only to see a handsome face with sharp features. "Mr. Huo, it's you."
"If you're not going to work, where are you going?" Huo Jiansheng said with a stern face.
"You've come at the right time! I'm quitting! I'm not doing this anymore!" Riemann said angrily.
Huo Jiansheng frowned involuntarily. "What happened? Why did you quit again?"
