The head of the orphanage was smart enough to confess that she was greedy for money.
She knew that being greedy for money was an economic crime. She could be released after being fined. However, if Eighteen's death was exposed, the Zhou family and the Wu family would kill her even if she was not sentenced to death by the law.
Jiujiu had expected that the head of the orphanage would not talk about Eighteen's death.
After all, Eighteen was still alive, and the Zhou family had indeed adopted her.
Even if the Zhou family took the child away and forced Eighteen to die, no one would believe them without any evidence.
Even if they found out that the Zhou family turned against them after Eighteen gave birth to the child, it could not prove that the Zhou family had anything to do with Eighteen's death.
After all, people could only criticize the Zhou family from a moral point of view and say that the Zhou family was unkind. There was no such law at all.
Jiujiu wanted the Zhou family to be punished, so she did not intend to pursue the matter further.
It was inefficient to waste manpower and money. Why bother?
Although the head of the orphanage was arrested, the orphanage had to continue operating. Otherwise, what would happen to the orphanage?
Jiujiu asked her assistant to find a reliable person to take over the orphanage. Cheng Ming continued to be in charge of the foundation.
This time, he managed the orphanage seriously.
When the head of the orphanage was arrested, Wu Siling was involved. Although he was released soon, Wu Siling felt that it was not so simple because of his guilty conscience. He asked someone to investigate it secretly.
However, because of Jiujiu's cooperation with the government, Jiujiu's information was highly confidential. Wu Siling spent a lot of money and time, but he still could not find out who did it.
Because of the bad situation, the head of the orphanage was sentenced soon. Only then did Zhou Jinnian know that the head of the orphanage was arrested because she had embezzled money from the foundation.
Zhou Jinnian cursed in his heart, but he began to contact someone to warn the head of the orphanage.
After all, the head of the orphanage was greedy for money and afraid of hardship. She could betray Eighteen for money, but she might not betray them for freedom.
This matter must be dealt with cleanly. If necessary, they would not hesitate to use violence.
However, because of Jiujiu's order in advance, the director of the orphanage was closely guarded by the people inside. Zhou Jinnian's men could not find a chance to get close to the director of the orphanage, so they could only give up.
After a period of learning in the company, Wu Xinni successfully changed from a person who didn't know anything to someone who could mess up everything.
Even though she had the words' Mrs. President 'hanging above her head, everyone looked at Wu Xinni as if she was a jinx.
Everyone knew that Wu Xinni had no foundation, so when they taught her, they were very careful. They taught her little by little and taught her everything that they had practiced for a long time. They taught her everything that they had learned without reservation.
Under normal circumstances, as long as there was nothing wrong with his brain, he would be able to learn it.
But what no one expected was that Wu Xinni seemed to have a problem with her brain. No matter what they said, no matter how many times they taught her, Wu Xinni had the ability to forget everything in a few minutes.
In his memory, it was comparable to the seven seconds of a goldfish.
In three months, Wu Xinni hadn't even learned the basics. Asking her to manage the company was no different from courting death.
Wu Xinni's existence was a disaster to others, and it was the same for others to Wu Xinni.
Wu Xinni had always been a tyrant. Asking her to do things was tantamount to asking her to kill herself. Moreover, many things were tedious and boring, and the attitude of those people was especially bad. If Zhou Jinnian hadn't asked her to go to the company every day, she would have quit long ago.
Now that she heard Zhou Jinnian's assistant say that she didn't seem to be suitable for work, Wu Xinni looked depressed on the surface, but in fact, she was overjoyed.
Yes, she wasn't suitable for work, so she should quickly go home and live the life she had before.
After listening to his assistant, Zhou Jinnian glanced at Wu Xinni and said, "In that case, you don't have to come to the company anymore. As for Jiujiu …"
After this period of torment, the jealousy in Wu Xinni's heart had been completely wiped out by the tedious work. When she heard Zhou Jinnian mention Jiujiu, Wu Xinni immediately said, "I believe you."
Wu Xinni said the words' I believe you 'resolutely and decisively, as if she would be anxious if anyone didn't believe Zhou Jinnian.
Zhou Jinnian instantly smiled.
Zhou Jinnian said, "Okay."
After dealing with Wu Xinni effortlessly, Zhou Jinnian curled the corners of his lips.
After Wu Xinni left the company, she immediately took a taxi to the mall to shop. After shopping, Wu Xinni directly booked a flight abroad and prepared to go abroad for a vacation.
Just as Wu Xinni arrived at the airport, Jiujiu received a call from her assistant.
With Wu Xinni's thoughts, Jiujiu did not need to think to guess why she left.
However, the more she understood, the more she felt that Zhou Jinnian was blind to not want a good girl like Eighteen and choose Wu Xinni, who was an idiot.
The next day after Wu Xinni left, Zhou Jinnian called Jiujiu to ask her out for a meal.
As Jiujiu's cooperation with the government deepened, Jiujiu's status rose. Especially after knowing that Jiujiu was still single, many bosses tried to introduce Jiujiu to other people, such as their family's children and their relatives' children.
Jiujiu rejected all of them on the grounds that she didn't intend to be in a relationship for the time being.
Therefore, Zhou Jinnian, who could continue to be in contact with her, became the target of public criticism.
At the thought of Zhou Jinnian's handsome face, many CEOs had other ideas.
Although Zhou Jinnian was a jerk, he was good-looking. Perhaps Jiujiu was mesmerized by Zhou Jinnian's face. Those bosses who had ideas about Jiujiu's marriage directly dug up the matter between Zhou Jinnian and Eighteen. Some even sent anonymous letters to Jiujiu to prove that Zhou Jinnian was not a good person.
Zhou Jinnian booked the Linjiang Hotel.
The open-air restaurant on the 48th floor had a panoramic view of the river from above. In the distance, there were flowing lights and vibrant colors. It was very beautiful.
Jiujiu raised her red wine glass, swirled it, and took a sip. She asked knowingly, "Sister-in-law didn't come?"
Zhou Jinnian smiled. "Your sister-in-law has been studying in the company all this time. Recently, she has been very bored. I gave her a vacation to let her go out and relax."
Obviously, Wu Xinni didn't want to study and ran away. However, when Zhou Jinnian said it, it was surprisingly pleasant to hear.
Jiujiu laughed and lowered her eyes. She said, "Some time ago, someone told me something interesting. Brother Zhou, do you want to hear it?"
Jiujiu's tone was a little cold, which was different from usual. Zhou Jinnian's heart sank. He couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"
"Someone said that Brother Zhou had a girlfriend before you got married. Her name is Eighteen. She seems to look exactly like your sister-in-law, right?"
Jiujiu tilted her head to look at the scenery in the distance and whispered, "Is she your sister-in-law's substitute?"
Zhou Jinnian hated it when people talked about Eighteen in front of him. Now that Jiujiu mentioned Eighteen in front of him, he wanted to turn hostile, but he restrained himself in the face of benefits.
