Strange in public! Trying to conceive in private! Pampered and kissed every night.

The man shuddered as he looked at Song Xinya and Chen Siyan.

Is this a guilty conscience?

Song Xinya's phone suddenly rang. She opened it and saw a message from her male colleague.

[I didn't betray you; Mr. Zhao is bluffing you.]

Then, Chen Siyan's phone rang, and he also saw the message.

Zhao Yinian looked at Song Xinya and Chen Siyan: "I'm talking to you two, did you hear me?"

"When the boss talks to you about work, you're all looking down at your phones. Can't you have some professionalism?"

"Tell me, did either of you go to my office?"

Song Xinya: "I didn't go."

Chen Siyan: "I didn't go."

Zhao Yinian looked at the two of them suspiciously: "Really?"

Song Xinya said without changing her expression, "I said I didn't go, and I didn't go. If President Zhao doesn't believe me, he can ask the other employees in the company."

Zhao Yinian actually asked, "Who saw Song Xinya and Chen Siyan enter my office? Tell me, and I'll offer a reward of 10,000 yuan."

Chen Siyan: "Offering a reward? Pshaw—do they think we're wanted criminals?"

Zhao Yinian: "What, are you scared?"

Chen Siyan puffed out his chest: "I haven't done anything wrong, what am I afraid of?"

He turned to face his colleagues: "Did you see Teacher Song and I go into General Manager Zhao's office?"

Colleagues: "No, none of you went into Mr. Zhao's office, how could we have seen you?"

Chen Siyan turned to Zhao Yinian and said, "President Zhao, you have wronged me and Teacher Song. Apologize to us."

Song Xinya: "They just put us on the wanted list as criminals. It would be too much if President Zhao didn't say something."

Zhao Yinian picked up her phone and put it to her ear: "Hello, President Qin, you called me? Okay, I'll report the latest work progress to you now."

Chen Siyan laughed: "President Zhao, your phone hasn't even rung or lit up, and you're already making a call? Are you talking to a ghost? Are you calling the underworld? Isn't that ridiculous?"

Zhao Yinian pretended to be deaf and mute and walked into the office.

Song Xinya: "You can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep, just like you can never wait for a ship at an airport."

Chen Siyan nodded in deep agreement, walked up to the man who ranked third in sales, and patted him on the shoulder: "You haven't betrayed the organization, you're a good colleague."

Man: "I am proud of myself for being able to stick to my principles even in the face of coercion and temptation."

Did he never waver at all? No, he did.

Zhao Yinian had been trying to win over the man who ranked third in sales, hoping to turn him into her man. She told him, "Work hard. Manager Chen is hard to manage, and Teacher Song is arrogant. Compared to the two of them, I have more faith in you. As long as your stance is consistent with mine, I will give you full marks in the gold medal lecturer selection."

"Once you are selected as a gold medal lecturer, you will be promoted and receive a raise. You will also receive shares in the Qin Group. Even if you do nothing in the future, you will still receive huge dividends from the Qin Group. This is an inexhaustible source of wealth for a lifetime."

"Such a good opportunity, once it's gone, it's gone forever. You must seize this chance I'm giving you."

The third-place winner admitted that he was tempted when he heard those words.

He was just an ordinary man, a middle-aged man who had started a family, with elderly parents and young children to care for. His simple wish in life was to make life better for himself and his family.

But the difference between humans and animals is that humans are bound by morality and law.

Choosing sides doesn't rise to the level of law; even if he betrayed Song Xinya and Chen Siyan, it's only a moral issue.

But the third-place winner did not choose to betray.

Teacher Song and Manager Chen are truly good people—loyal, sincere, and kind. If he were to betray them, he would not only be looked down upon by everyone in the company, but he would also despise himself.

Furthermore, although Zhao Yinian's words sound nice, she wasn't the only judge for the gold medal lecturer position. Teacher Song and Manager Chen's abilities were evident to everyone in the company, and the other judges weren't blind. They wouldn't give him a high score for third place while giving low scores for first and second place.

Constrained by both morality and reality, the third-place winner chose to stay true to himself.

Back at his workstation, he saw Chen Siyan chatting enthusiastically with his colleagues: "Don't leave tonight, or I'll get mad at anyone who leaves, because I'm treating everyone to Haidilao hot pot, and no one can be left out."

Colleagues applauded and cheered.

Looking at the harmonious office environment and the smiling faces of her colleagues, the third-place winner felt incredibly fortunate to have made the right choice and not chosen the wrong side.

He stood up and said to everyone, "I'll treat you all to milk tea."

Another cheer erupted in the office.

Chen Siyan looked at him and teased, "Teacher Dong, you're being so generous today."

Dong Dongdong: "I have elderly parents to support and young children to raise, so I can't compare to you, Manager Chen, a rich second-generation. But treating each of my colleagues to a cup of milk tea is no problem."

Chen Siyan snapped his fingers nonchalantly: "I'm waiting to drink your milk tea."

He slid over to Song Xinya's side and sang a line: "The sky is the color of rain and mist, I'm waiting for you at Haidilao."

In that short time, Song Xinya had finished reading Sheng Tianjun's information, grabbed her bag, and walked out.

"I'm going to visit my client, Sheng Tianjun, now. I might not be able to make it to dinner tonight. You guys eat your food, I'll join you another day."

Chen Siyan: "So rushed?"

urgent.

Song Xinya was in a hurry.

She wanted to become Sheng Tianjun's tutor as soon as possible, and through this connection, she could get in touch with Sheng Changpu, a top burn specialist, to treat Qin Yuhe's hand scars.

Although Sheng Tianjun's job posting stated that he only wanted male tutors, she still decided to give it a try.

She couldn't give up any chance for Qin Yuhe's hand to recover.

Following the address on the document, Song Xinya arrived at Sheng Tianjun's home.

She rang the doorbell, and the housekeeper opened the door.

"May I ask who you are?"

Song Xinya: "I'm here to apply for the position of tutor for Sheng Tianjun."

The housekeeper sized up Song Xinya, a strange look in his eyes...

"Our young master only hires male tutors."

Song Xinya: "If male teachers can teach Young Master Sheng well, so can I. In fact, I can do it even better than male teachers. Just let me give Young Master Sheng a trial lesson, and you will know my professional skills. I will definitely satisfy both you and Young Master Sheng."

The housekeeper gave Song Xinya another strange look.

"Please leave."

With a bang, the door slammed shut.

Song Xinya waited until 9 p.m., but couldn't get in.

I waited there for a week straight, until 9 p.m. every night, but I still couldn't get in.

The housekeeper was unyielding and resolutely refused to let her, a girl, step into the Sheng family's gate.

She was like a monster.

Or is there some monstrous threat within the Sheng family? What shameful secrets do they fear being discovered?

On the eighth day, Song Xinya arrived home at 10 p.m. again, looking exhausted. She didn't even have the strength to say hello when she entered the door and collapsed onto the bed.

Qin Yuhe watched all of this through the surveillance video.

A man's voice came from the camera: "Ya Ya, you seem to be very busy lately."

Song Xinya looked up from under the covers and stared at the camera: "Yeah, I'm so busy."

Qin Yuhe: "Ya Ya, what are you busy with?"
