"Fifty thousand … You're crazy!" Tao Aiai screamed. She had lost her job and had been eating her savings. She didn't have much savings left.
"I can't take out that much money."
Liu Jun glanced at her. "Don't worry. You don't have to worry that I'll pester you for a long time. Fifty thousand is not even half of my monthly salary. I'm already grateful to you. When I find a new job, you don't have to give me the money."
Tao Aiai looked at the knife in his hand and nodded. "When are you going to find a new job?"
"That's none of your business." He took out a pen and wrote a string of numbers on a piece of paper. "This is my account number. Remember to transfer money to it on time every month. Otherwise, I'll come to you again."
Liu Jun thought for a moment and tore Tao Aiai's clothes. She immediately shouted, "Liu Jun, what are you doing!"
"Don't worry. I'm not interested in you. I'm just taking some photos as a backup plan. I learned all this from you."
"Lunatic, you're a lunatic!"
Liu Jun turned a deaf ear to her cries and curses. After taking the photos, he cut her ropes. Tao Aiai was about to rush over, but he slapped her back to her original spot.
"You'd better stop touching me and be obedient. Otherwise, I don't know what I'll do."
Throwing the paper with his account number on the ground, Liu Jun sneered and walked out.
Tao Aiai lay on the ground and pulled her clothes to cover her body. She couldn't help but cry softly. Her long nails dug into her flesh. Her other hand clenched the note left by Liu Jun. Her eyes were full of hatred.
"Liu Jun, Li Weixi, you'll suffer retribution."
In the conference room.
When Li Weixi woke up again, it was almost dark. She lay on Lin Yi's lap with a small quilt covering her. Lin Yi was sitting on the sofa and reading some documents.
From her angle, she could see his delicate facial features. Lin Yi knew that she was awake when she moved. Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, he looked down at her.
"You're awake. Do you want to eat?"
"Let's eat …" Li Weixi's brain crashed for a moment. Then, he sat up abruptly and looked around at the surrounding scenery. His face instantly turned pale and his lips and teeth seemed to be in a knot.
"The two of us... have been here the entire afternoon?"
Li Weixi had stayed in the conference room for the entire afternoon. He could already imagine what kind of rumors were spreading outside.
In fact, Lin Yi had asked Xiao Qi to create the illusion that Li Weixi had left work early, but now he couldn't help teasing her.
"What's wrong? Are you that unhappy to be with me?"
Li Weixi shook his head and quickly got up to tidy up his clothes. "No, it's just that the other people in the company will gossip. I have to go out quickly."
When Lin Yi saw that she was about to run out after putting on her clothes, he quickly pulled her into his arms. "Okay, okay, I've already helped you apply for leave from the company's personnel department. They all thought that you would go home after the meeting."
Li Weixi was so anxious that she was about to cry. After hearing what he said, her tears were still hanging there. Lin Yi patted her face in amusement.
"Okay, don't stand there like a fool. Massage my legs. My legs are numb after lying on your bed for the entire afternoon."
He could have let Li Weixi lie on the sofa, but he couldn't help but put her on his lap. After the entire afternoon, his legs were numb.
Li Weixi heard his words and hurriedly squatted down to massage his legs. His muscles were a little stiff. Lin Yi sighed with pleasure.
Li Weixi felt a lump in her throat. She rubbed his legs and said in a low voice, "Why didn't you wake me up?"
Lin Yi-leng snorted and continued to flip through the documents in his hand. "You were sleeping like a pig. How could I wake you up?"
Li Weixi was not shy. She just looked up at Lin Yi. Lin Yi's chest suddenly felt a little hot. He reached out to cover her eyes. Li Weixi's long eyelashes fluttered in his palm and his heart became itchy.
He pretended to be fierce and said, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and rub it."
Li Weixi slowly put down her hand that was about to touch his face. No, she was not capable enough now. One day, when she was capable enough, she would stand in front of Lin Yi openly and tell him her feelings.
Seeing that she was silent, Lin Yi felt inexplicably unhappy. He gently kicked her calf and said, "Okay, stop rubbing. Let's go home."
"En." Li Weixi threw away the thought of being disappointed just now, nodded, and stood up.
When the two of them came out, most of the people in the company had left.
Li Weixi carefully avoided the remaining people. As promised, she was about to go to the parking lot to look for Lin Yi when she saw Roman, who was filling water in the pantry, looking at her in surprise.
Roman walked out with the water and asked in confusion, "Why are you here? Didn't you ask for leave early in the morning?"
Li Weixi laughed dryly and said, "I forgot to take something, so I came back to the office to get it. Why are you still here?"
Roman held her head and felt a headache coming on. "Didn't Liu Jun resign? He still has a lot of work to do, so Special Assistant Xiao asked Ji Xi and me to help him deal with it. "
Roman was in an awkward position because she had some conflicts with Liu Jun. She was neither the manager nor the team leader. Li Weixi thought of the video that Tao Aiai had mentioned and had an idea.
"Roman, why did you lose to Liu Jun back then?"
Even if the proposal had been stolen, as long as Roman explained it well, she should be able to submit the proposal.
Roman looked at her strangely. "Why are you asking this?"
"I'm just curious." Li Weixi leaned closer. "You heard from Anxi, right? Liu Jun did that because Tao Aiai instigated him to do something like that."
Ji Xi was a straightforward person, so she must have told Roman about it. Roman nodded. "Didn't you say that he slept with Tao Aiai?"
They were usually unclear in the company. Roman had seen it and more or less knew about it.
Li Weixi pursed her lips and continued, "But I don't think that's the case. Tao Aiai must have used something else to threaten Liu Jun. If it was really the video that Liu Jun said, it would only ruin Liu Jun's reputation at most. How could it make Liu Jun unable to stay in the company?"
Roman took two sips of water to calm herself down. "Do you mean that the thing in Tao Aiai's hands might have something to do with me?"
"I'm just guessing. After all, there are not many things that can seriously affect a person's future."
Li Weixi had always wondered if Tao Aiai had known something from the beginning, which was why she had dared to be so fearless. She took out her phone and looked at it. Lin Yi had already sent her a text message to urge her.
"Then I'll go back first. Roman, you can go back as soon as possible."
"Okay."
