After abandoning his wife and children, Bo Xilai coaxed and begged her to reconcile.

"Holy crap! I managed to find the follow-up. The person involved in that 'wife upstairs taking care of her mother, mistress downstairs giving birth' story is actually a teacher at your school!"

One second Jiang Yiran was lazily lounging on the sofa, the next she sat up straight, holding her phone, excitedly sharing online gossip with Song Jinye.

"Hmm." Song Jin remained in her crooked posture, her eyes showing no surprise whatsoever.

"You already knew?" Jiang Yiran's emotions, which had just been boiling over, faltered for a moment. She blinked, leaned closer, and asked gossipily, "What other inside information did you know?"

Song Jinye: "Maybe, I'm just saying maybe, the scumbag and Yaozu, whom the mother-in-law has high hopes for, aren't actually the scumbag."

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!" Jiang Yiran was so excited she almost slapped her thighs until they were red. "Wow! This is like a plot from a thrilling drama coming to life! If this is really true, then that scumbag guy and that wicked mother-in-law must be regretting it to the core!"

She quickly sat up straight with a devout expression, put her hands together, and murmured, "Bless me, bless me, God bless me! I pray that all the scumbag men in the world will become fathers."

When Bo Sinian brought his two children in, he happened to see Jiang Yiran performing a ritual.

His first thought was: Did Zhou Chu provoke her again?

Jiang Yiran remembered when she saw him, "Does that scumbag work at Yuzhou Group?" She turned to ask Song Jinye.

Song Jin nodded as well.

"Mr. Bo, we've given you a massive amount of traffic. Whether the stock goes up or down tomorrow depends on what you do," Jiang Yiran said to Bo Sinian.

Bo Sinian, puzzled, glanced between the two before finally settling on Song Jinye. "What's wrong?"

"The whole internet is condemning Yang Lisheng, that scumbag. What do you think? If your company doesn't take any action to restrain him, people might think that the management of Yuzhou is in cahoots with him," Jiang Yiran said angrily.

Although this gossip was already out in the past, seeing it again now still makes people furious.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Bo Sinian received a call from the public relations department.

They said that their group's official account was almost overwhelmed by comments and private messages from netizens, with a massive influx of messages that the backend system could barely handle.

Everyone hopes that Yuzhou Group can set an example for all companies and impose some constraints on employees with questionable personal conduct. This incident has already had a very negative impact; if the scumbag goes unpunished, it will make people feel that even if they do wrong, they don't have to bear any consequences. Wouldn't that lead to more and more people acting with impunity?

The public relations department inquired about Bo Sinian's opinion.

"Then let's suspend him from his position. We'll talk again when he's sorted out his personal matters."

After all, the huge Yuzhou Group should not be subjected to so much criticism because of a mere manager.

Yang Lisheng never expected that Yan Xiao would bring this matter back to the top of the trending searches.

He hadn't taken it to heart at first.

After all, the previous revelation by others did not have a substantial impact on him.

He thought he would get through this safely as well.

Ultimately, he is neither a celebrity nor a tycoon, nor an internet celebrity; who would care about an ordinary person like him?

But things took a turn for the worse than he had expected.

During the day at the hospital, my mother was constantly being pointed at and gossiped about by other patients and their families. Some unscrupulous internet celebrities even came to the hospital and took close-up photos of my mother, asking her a bunch of irrelevant questions.

In the neighborhood, when Liu Ying and the nanny take their child downstairs for a walk and to enjoy the sun, they also encounter subtle sarcasm and ridicule from others.

Not to mention his presence at the company; everyone seemed to treat him like a monster and deliberately avoided him.

He only made a mistake that all men make, so how did he become a sinner that everyone avoids?

His mother and Liu Ying would call him from time to time to complain and pour out their grievances, and he was on the verge of a breakdown.

He finally managed to find an excuse to take out the trash so he could go downstairs and catch his breath.

He smoked two cigarettes downstairs before he felt like he had recovered.

Just as I was about to go upstairs, I received a call from the company's HR manager: "Manager Yang, I'm informing you of the company's management decision: you are temporarily relieved of your position as Marketing Manager and transferred to a branch office. The relevant transfer documents will be sent to your email later. This public opinion incident has had a significant impact, and the company made this arrangement after considering all the factors. Please gather your work and ensure a smooth handover. If you have any questions, please follow the proper appeal process."

Yang Lisheng was stunned, flustered and confused. A chill ran down his spine, and his confidence vanished completely.

He gripped his phone, his voice strained: "Remove me from my manager position? Transfer me to a branch office? Just because of those rumors online? This is a private matter, how can it affect my job!"

The HR manager sneered, "Personal matters? Do you know how much trouble you've caused the company? Because of you, even President Bo has been alerted."

Yang Lisheng paused briefly, his momentum waning slightly: "I know this public opinion storm has gotten a bit out of hand, but I've worked so hard for the marketing department for so many years, the company can't just make such a sweeping decision."

HR Manager: "The company has rewarded you for your hard work in your position. Don't talk like you're doing this as a volunteer. The company is a place that needs to generate continuous profits. We can't sacrifice our reputation and brand image for one person. That's all I have to say. I hope Mr. Yang can resolve his personal matters soon and return to the group headquarters."

Enraged, Yang Lisheng stepped on the gas and drove straight back to Yan Xiao's place.

However, they discovered that both their fingerprints and passwords were invalid.

He pounded on the door so hard it shook the house, which alerted everyone next door, upstairs, and downstairs.

"Who do we have here? It's you. Didn't you have a family with your mistress outside? Why are you back?"

"What? Have you lost all conscience? You've even fed your public spirit to the dogs? Look at the time of day! My child is doing their homework. Aren't you shameless enough to interrupt my child's studies?"

"My elderly relative has a heart condition. If you scare them and cause them any harm, I'll never forgive you!"

"Teacher Yan is really unlucky; how did she end up with such a scumbag?"

Yang Lisheng was filled with shame and indignation, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was too anxious and disturbed everyone. Do you know if Yan Xiao is home?"

"At this time, Teacher Yan must have gone to pick up the child from school. You, as the child's father, don't even know this, and you're asking us neighbors, what a joke!" The neighbor mocked without any politeness, and slammed the door shut.

Yang Lisheng waited at the door for half an hour before Yan Xiao returned with the child.

"Dad, are you back from your business trip?" Xiaoxin rushed to him in surprise.

The child had no idea what had happened between his parents; he only assumed that his father was away on business trips because he was never home.

"Xiaoxin, you go in first. Mom just remembered there are some things I forgot to take from the car. Can Dad come with me to get them?" Yan Xiao said gently to her daughter.
