Indeed, Liang Shuyin’s wretched scream attracted the attention of others outside, especially the male employees. They were all burning with anxiety.
“Shuyin, what’s wrong? You’re so careless. Your arm is all red!”
Liang Shuyin sobbed and choked out, “I’m fine… Xiaocao was simply careless… Don’t blame her…”
“Song Xiaocao, how do you even do things? You even managed to scald Shuyin while brewing a cup of coffee. Not only are you ugly, but you’re also useless. I don’t know what the company hired you for!” A male colleague with the label of a ‘visual animal’ on the top of his head criticized Song Wei harshly straight away.
Xiao De, who was also in the group, immediately ‘understood’ something when she saw this scene. She pointed at Song Wei and scolded, “You’re really an ugly and vicious person. Because you didn’t sell the Exquisite Eye yourself and saw that Shuyin succeeded, you deliberately hurt her, right? Why are you so malicious?”
As soon as Xiao De said this, the male colleagues instantly exploded. “Using boiling water to splash someone just because you’re jealous? Indeed, the hearts of all ugly people are twisted. They’re jealous of others who are pretty…”
Liang Shuyin sobbed and advised them, “Don’t you guys say that about Xiaocao. She definitely didn’t do it on purpose. I know that, although she doesn’t have a strong work ability, she’s not evil…”
“Shuyin! You’re already hurt so badly, and yet you’re still speaking up for her? You’re really too kindhearted. But being kind and tolerant to such a person will hurt yourself, do you understand?”
The girls also sighed with emotion. “Shuyin, you must be an angel. You’re still defending the culprit even after being scalded to this extent. I don’t think that she has any intention of feeling guilty at all…”
From start to end, Song Wei remained calm and composed in the face of these accusations. After everyone was done scolding, she finally said, “Are you all done? If so, I’m leaving.”
A male colleague grabbed her wrist. “Are you trying to run away after injuring her? I’m going to report you to the human resources department to pursue your responsibility. Leaving someone with such strong jealousy in Sky Palace will only bring harm to everyone.”
All the others seemed to share a common enemy. “Take her to the human resources department!”
The head of the human resources department was a middle-aged man in his forties. There was a label above his head that said ‘Let it be if the matter is of no concern to me’. His code of conduct was to seek benefits, avoid disadvantages, and be selfish.
Therefore, seeing that this matter had blown up so much and that Song Wei looked like someone with weak combat strength, he immediately made a decision. “I’ll suspend her first. I’ll decide whether to keep her after I’ve investigated the matter thoroughly.”
Although that was what he said, it was actually a common tactic used in?Taichi1. There was no way he would really investigate. He would just put on a show and let Song Wei be sensible enough to leave on her own.
Song Wei didn’t struggle either. She stretched lazily. “All right, I’ll treat it as my vacation. Don’t regret it.”
Manager Cao glanced at her and smiled somewhat contemptuously. “It’s common for our company to fire people. We’re just suspending a small employee like you. What would I regret?”
“You’re the one who said that.” Song Wei smiled and stood up. She calmly went to her work desk to pack her bag and left without any reluctance.
As they watched her leave, the group of people—who had been stirring the waters and wanted nothing more than to execute a private punishment on Song Wei—suddenly felt a strange trace of panic.
Especially Liang Shuyin. Seeing how calm Song Wei was, her palms were covered in cold sweat. However, she could only console herself. Just now, Song Wei didn’t even defend herself. What other tricks could she play?
It was just a trick to scare people.
There was nothing to be afraid of.
Song Wei was already home by midday. Uncle Dong was obviously a little worried about her. “Madam, you’re back so early today. Did something happen at the company?”
Song Wei nodded. “It’s just a small matter. By the way, Uncle Dong, I want Assistant Xie’s contact details.”
“Ah? If you encounter any trouble, you can tell me directly. Assistant Xie has always been in charge of handling company matters so he might not be able to help you.” Uncle Dong was a little puzzled by Song Wei’s intention.
“He’s really the only one who can help with this matter,” Song Wei sighed and rubbed her glabella helplessly. “I want him to match his testimony with me.”
“A… a testimony?”
