Chapter 207: Being Laid Off
"What? What is going on?" Shen Jiaojiao suddenly raised her voice.
"Oh, don't mention it. No one knows the inside story of the relationship between Mr. Qiu and me, and the department I was assigned to has a secretary for the general manager."
"Compared to my job, that person's job is easier, and he can assign me to do everything."
"That day he suddenly handed me a contract and asked me to check it out. I thought he wanted me to take it to the general manager for signature, so after confirming with him that there were no mistakes in the contract, I took it to the general manager's office to sign it."
"But after the general manager saw the contract, he got furious with me. He said there were problems with the contract at first glance, and that I had ulterior motives in sending it to him."
"I couldn't defend myself, and quickly said that the secretary asked me to deliver it, but the secretary quickly denied it, saying that I took the initiative to hand the contract to the general manager in order to frame him and replace him."
"But how could I have such thoughts? Mr. Qiu appreciates me, how could I do anything to let him down? But the two of them still forced me to resign on my own initiative."
"Otherwise, they would have asked me to pack up and leave after a month."
Lin Song told Shen Jiaojiao the whole cause and effect with a wronged look on his face, but after listening to it, Shen Jiaojiao was unable to help in any way except feeling anxious.
"Then what should we do? Can we ask Xiao Ling for help? Didn't we hear Xiao Ling respect Mr. Qiu the other day? Mr. Qiu is also very satisfied with Xiao Ling."
Lin Song shook his head: "I got this job thanks to Xiao Ling. I can't trouble him for everything. Even if I really can't stay in the company this time, I will find another job."
"It's just that you and the child will be wronged again." Lin Song blamed himself, "I should have been more careful earlier. Who could have guessed that the general manager and the secretary would collude to get me out."
"When they knew I was parachuted in, they were very critical of me. Plus, I was Mr. Qiu's spy, which made them feel uneasy, as if someone was watching them all the time."
"Maybe this is why they are eager to kick me out." Lin Song said helplessly.
"Then we should tell Mr. Qiu about this matter. Otherwise, if Mr. Qiu's company suffers any losses and we can't find any evidence against the other party, wouldn't that be even more disadvantageous to Mr. Qiu?"
Shen Jiaojiao said with a serious expression.
"Of course this is true, but Mr. Qiu also needs to be able to see those people's obvious little actions. Otherwise, I have only been in the company for a short time and my words are not influential, so I may not be able to make Mr. Qiu understand what I say." Lin Song said in a dilemma.
"So this matter ultimately requires finding Xiao Ling. Do you still have the original contract on hand?" Shen Jiaojiao tried her best to calm her trembling body and spoke.
"Well, this is the original contract. I see a lot of wording traps on it. If you don't look closely, you really can't see what's wrong with it." Lin Song spread out the crumpled paper in his hand and responded.
"We don't understand these things, but Xiao Ling does. As long as he also thinks there is a problem with the contract, we can go find Mr. Qiu and drive out these pests in the company!" Shen Jiaojiao became excited.
"Before leaving get off work today, I saw a familiar face." Lin Song suddenly changed the subject.
"A familiar face, who is it?" Shen Jiaojiao was puzzled.
"You would never guess that it was Xiaoge's fiancé, Qi Liancheng."
"How did he suddenly appear in your company? Which department did he go to?" "He went in right after I left the general manager's office. And not long after, a hearty laugh came from the general manager's office. He seemed to be saying something like 'Happy cooperation'. Isn't it obvious that he is replacing someone?"
If Lin Song felt that everything was inexplicable before, after he saw Qi Liancheng carrying a briefcase, everything seemed like a spider web that had been spinning everywhere, and he couldn't escape.
"Brother Lin, let's just stay the same now. We still have about a month to go. During this time, as long as we can prove our innocence, everything will be in time."
Lin Song nodded: "Don't worry, Jiaojiao, I will never let you and the child down."
"Please don't tell my parents about this, otherwise I'm afraid they will worry." Lin Song said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
"Worried? What are you worried about?" Cheng Yuzhu had just finished cooking and brought the meal home when she heard the couple's mumbling, but it didn't sound real.
"No, I mean to tell Jiaojiao to take more care of her body. The baby will be full-term in a month. Tell her to be careful and not cause trouble to you, her mother." Lin Song laughed.
Cheng Yuzhu rolled her eyes at Lin Song and said, "What do you mean by causing trouble? Jiaojiao is such a good girl, our Lin family is so distressed that we can't wait to feel sorry for her, how can we think Jiaojiao is troublesome!"
As she said this, Cheng Yuzhu gave Lin Song a slap on the face.
"Yes, yes, Mom, I said the wrong thing. I don't think Jiaojiao is troublesome at all." Lin Song and Shen Jiaojiao looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
The next morning, Lin Song handed the contract to Ling Zhuoqun. Ling Zhuoqun studied the contract for a long time and said, "This contract is full of traps. It shows that the person who drafted this contract is very good at setting traps."
"If I show this contract to Mr. Qiu, can he see the flaws in it? This contract was given to me by the general manager's secretary, but then all the faults were put on me."
"I just need to talk to Mr. Qiu about some cooperation. I'll take you to his office." Ling Zhuoqun put on his clothes and prepared to go out immediately.
"By the way, you have to take this too." In Ling Zhuoqun's hand was a dark red gift box, which contained the scarf designed by Li Luo.
The silk scarf inside is made of the finest silk, and even the silk threads used for embroidery are all of the best. The light grey scarf is embroidered with a lifelike tiger head and an "L" logo. The designer's intentions can be seen at a glance.
"This is..." Lin Song asked puzzled.
"Oh, this is a gift our farm wants to give to our distinguished guests. It's a good opportunity for you to bring it with you when we discuss cooperation this time. Don't underestimate its size, but it is the result of Luo Luo's hard work." Ling Zhuoqun explained to Lin Song with a smile.
"My sister's hard work? What is going on?" Lin Song was still confused.
"This is a hand-embroidered handkerchief by Luo Luo. It is the perfect gift."
Lin Song didn't understand the twists and turns, but when he heard the word "embroidery", he was immediately shocked: "You mean, Luo Luo can embroider?"
Lin Song had thought that when Li Luo worked in the textile factory, she only knew how to cut clothes and operate a sewing machine. He did not expect that she actually had this skill, which really made Lin Song look at her with new eyes.
