Night Rose

Su Jin deliberately didn't answer any calls. The time when Lu Mingzhou and Xu Jingyi came to the apartment and made a scene was also posted in the group. After she finished reading the gossip, she wished she had been there and could have enjoyed the wonderful expression on Lu Mingzhou's face when his male chauvinism was broken.

Ling Keke was still busy with her work and couldn't take time off to come over, but she gave Su Jin a helpful suggestion from a public relations perspective.

Since TopChain doesn't want its conclusion to be overturned, then they should publicize this matter even more loudly.

"Sherry, as long as you're not afraid of this getting blown up, then I have no reason to hold back."

Su Jin said casually, "The bigger the commotion, the better. Ideally, everyone would perish together."

"If Top Chain is so proud of itself, they'll soon have to contact you first," Ling Keke said confidently.

Ling Keke also had work connections in New York, so she asked several media outlets to write articles about Sherry taking the blame for the intern, which were published in newspapers and posted on various social networks.

Numerous accounts claiming to be Sherry's colleagues posted messages on Twitter, exaggerating the incident.

In an instant, online public opinion was stirred up again.

-Isn't Sherry the female engineer who was fired by Topchain before? Why is she back in the news?

I heard she took the blame for a new intern, and Dinglian wanted her to take the fall, so they fired her.

That intern is a nepotism case; she's the mistress of some high-ranking executive at Topchain.

-She seems to have connections with the race manager, no wonder someone stepped in and pinned everything on Sherry. Sherry worked at the top chain for several years, and the cars she modified achieved many good results. I've always believed it wasn't Sherry's fault.

Someone threw in a smokescreen, and the onlookers had a great time, spreading increasingly outrageous rumors about the intern's identity, eventually turning her into the mistress of the CEO of Topchain.

Wang Tianle, who was far away in Nanyuan, naturally saw this gossip and shared it with Zhou Zheng on his phone.

Looking at all this information, both true and false, Zhou Zheng had only one question: who exactly was the legendary female engineer Sherry?

Su Jin has been very busy these days and has rarely chatted with him. She even recently declined his video call invitation.

Zhou Zheng searched online for information about Sherry, but found very little. Apart from knowing that she was a woman and very young, he couldn't get any other useful information.

But he had a feeling that there was some kind of connection between Su Jin and Sherry.

As public opinion continued to escalate, Dinglian could no longer sit still and contacted Su Jin again despite the public outcry.

This time, Su Jin ignored them and told them to contact their lawyers, so they would also suffer the consequences of their arrogance.

Sure enough, the bigger the commotion gets and the more people are involved, the more people will want to clear their names than you do.

The lawyer provided Su Jin with the latest news: TopChain invited her to meet at the company to discuss the matter in person.

Su Jin knew that her chance had come.

She went to see Li Qi immediately. Li Qi was undergoing physical rehabilitation training, and his sluggish language system was slowly recovering; he could already speak some short sentences.

After finishing his training, he was covered in sweat and looked rather disheveled when he met Su Jin.

Aunt Li knew what he was thinking, so she didn't say anything more. She pushed the wheelchair in front of Su Jin and was about to leave.

"Aunt Li, wait a minute. I think you need to hear your opinion on this matter as well. It's very important," Su Jin stopped her.

Aunt Li glanced at her in surprise. Since her son woke up, the harshness in her eyes had disappeared, leaving only heartache for her son.

"What is it?"

"The company contacted me and wants to meet to discuss the car accident. I hope Li Qi can come with me. If his health condition doesn't allow it, or if you don't allow it, then we won't force him," Su Jin said.

Aunt Li remained silent. Her son didn't tell her any news, only that she shouldn't blame Su Jin, emphasizing that it wasn't Su Jin's fault.

Li Qi had his own ideas. He nodded weakly, "I... will go."

"Son, you..." Aunt Li was on the verge of tears, her eyes slightly red.

"Some things... always need to be resolved," Li Qi said in a hoarse voice. He looked at his mother, "You... don't go."

He knew that, given his mother's temper, she would definitely argue with the company because she felt sorry for him. This was unnecessary, and he didn't want to add to his mother's pain. He would wait until she saw the news reports to find out the truth.

What mother could remain calm after her son was murdered and nearly died?

"Don't worry, Auntie, the lawyer and I will take good care of Li Qi. He's just going to testify, and I promise he won't be too tired," Su Jin said, raising her finger to swear.

Aunt Li didn't know why her son wouldn't let her go, but she never wanted to be a burden to him. "Okay, I won't go. You go and come back soon."

The three agreed on a time, and the next day, Li Qi took a car and arrived at the Dinglian Building.

The towering company building still looks gleaming, and those standing on top look like ants to those below.

He struggled to get himself out of the car, into the wheelchair, and then onto the footrests.

After he finished doing all this, an umbrella was placed over his head.

Li Qi squinted and looked up, seeing Su Jin in a formal suit, and was slightly stunned.

He rarely saw Su Jin in formal attire. At the company, she mostly wore an engineer's uniform and meticulously explained the details of racing cars to him, exuding the rigorous aura of an engineer.

At this moment, she was wearing a well-tailored smoky gray suit, her hair was pulled up on top of her head, revealing her fair neck, and every stray hair was styled with mousse, neatly following the texture of her hair.

Su Jin wore a pair of frameless glasses. She looked up and pushed up the frames on her nose, making her look intelligent and dignified, exuding a charming allure at all times.

"Why are you wearing glasses?" Li Qi asked with difficulty.

Su Jin laughed, "I told someone I was going to start a fight, and he told me to wear glasses so I'd look tough."

Li Qi silently agreed, nodding with a smile.

"Ms. Su, the time we agreed on with Top Chain is almost here. Let's go up quickly so that reporters don't take pictures of Li." The lawyer glanced at his watch.

Su Jin nodded and stuffed a new black mask into Li Qi's hand. "Put it on quickly. Someone will definitely want to take pictures of you so they can make a fuss about it."

Li Qi obediently put on his mask. He knew that his appearance was perfect material for others to write about—miserable and broken, making him a laughingstock for countless people.

But Su Jin didn't think so. She pushed the wheelchair forward and said, "Your fans must be very worried about you. Seeing you like this, they'd probably take off your top chain, right? For the safety of your top chain, you should wear a mask properly."

Li Qi sighed silently behind his mask.

Su Jin, how come you're so nice to everyone?

I want to be good to you too.

Therefore, we must turn this tide!
