Today is Monday, and the number of people squeezing onto buses to get to work is off the charts; it's almost impossible to hail a taxi.
I finally managed to squeeze onto the bus, but then I got stuck in traffic halfway there!
When I arrived at the company and went upstairs to my office, I was already half an hour late.
What awaited Ling Ziqian was Hou Qin's scathing scolding.
As soon as I sat down, before I could even catch my breath, I had to plunge into the intense work.
Thinking back to this time of day, I would usually be reading a novel in class.
The difference between companies and schools is enormous!
Ling Ziqian deeply understood how tiring and miserable it was to be a company employee.
Although they weren't asked to clean in the morning, Ling Ziqian and Chen Qian were frequently ordered around by Hou Qin.
When pouring her tea, Chen Qian also retaliated with some subtle actions.
Chen Qian secretly suggested that she would buy a packet of laxatives to cause trouble another day.
Ling Ziqian nodded in agreement.
Chen Qian also told Ling Ziqian something: the team leader who was dismissed by Gao Wenhui yesterday went to the company's senior management to complain, but the matter was not resolved. In a fit of anger, the team leader left the company.
"Everyone knows that Gao Wenhui has powerful connections, but no one knows what kind of connections he has. He has done a lot of bad things, but the company has never done anything to him."
"Oh, this company is really shady," Ling Ziqian nodded and muttered. He knew who Gao Wenhui's backer was, but he didn't say it aloud. (The company's reputation is corrupt and exploitative.)
"Actually, every company is like this. People with connections flaunt their power and do nothing, while those without connections, like us, can only work ourselves to the bone."
Ling Ziqian looked at Chen Qian with some surprise, "I have a feeling that you've worked for many companies?"
Chen Qian smiled sheepishly, "That's right, people like me with low education levels are always the first to be laid off in company downsizing!"
This guy looks like he's only in his early twenties, but he's been through a lot.
After a busy morning, Ling Ziqian, holding his employee card, said he wanted to treat Chen Qian to lunch.
He actually planned to treat everyone to a meal in the cafeteria. Chen Qian couldn't help but laugh and nodded to Ling Ziqian.
The two checked in, went downstairs, and headed towards the cafeteria.
As we approached the cafeteria, screams and commotion erupted from inside, and many people ran out in terror.
"Run! Someone's attacking with a knife!"
"Run! Call the police!"
Chen Qian was quite frightened. She grabbed Ling Ziqian's arm, trying to pull him away.
However, Ling Ziqian caught a sound, and his brows furrowed.
"Gao Wenhui, Gao Wenhui, where are you, you bastard? Come out here, or I'll kill you..."
Ling Ziqian has a photographic memory. He recognized the voice; it was the voice of the former leader of Group C!
He probably couldn't think straight, so he came with a knife to attack Gao Wenhui.
What should I do at this point? Should I go in?
Chapter 211 A Good Samaritan's Act Backfires and He Is Framed!
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Ziqian decided to go into the cafeteria!
"Ling Ziqian, don't go over there, it's dangerous inside!" Chen Qian tried to pull Ling Ziqian away.
"I'll see if I can help. I'll be careful." Ling Ziqian turned around and smiled slightly at Chen Qian.
"You're not thinking of rescuing Gao Wenhui, are you? That scum should be killed!" Chen Qian said.
However, Ling Ziqian smiled and shook his head, "I'm not going to save Gao Wenhui, but to save the team leader. If he kills Gao Wenhui, what do you think he'll do?"
Chen Qian was stunned by Ling Ziqian's question, and Ling Ziqian took the opportunity to break free from her hand.
When Chen Qian came to her senses, she saw Ling Ziqian enter the cafeteria.
She shouted anxiously, "There are so many security guards in the company. It's not your turn to save them!"
That's one thing, but what if the team leader accidentally injures the security guard?
Gao Wenhui is my target, and it is only right that I deal with him myself; I don't need anyone else to interfere!
The cafeteria was in complete chaos, with food scattered all over the floor, a complete mess!
All the company employees left the cafeteria.
Those who couldn't leave hid in the corner or under the dining table.
A drunken middle-aged man stood in the center of the cafeteria, holding a streamlined, foot-long knife, shouting Gao Wenhui's name. Blood was flowing freely.
"Gao Wenhui, you bastard! You rely on your connections to get promoted and a raise by using the 'sexual favors' on your female colleagues!"
"I, Li Sheng, have worked diligently for Tianhuo Group for several years. I may not have made any great contributions, but I have certainly put in a lot of hard work. And yet you dismissed me and let a shameless bitch take my place..."
"You've embezzled and accepted bribes. Don't think others don't know; you're more trouble than you're worth..."
"The Skyfire Group will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later!"
Mr. Li shouted loudly, which caused the surrounding employees to whisper and discuss among themselves.
Gao Wenhui stood on the second floor of the cafeteria, gripping the railing with both hands. Hearing Li Sheng shout such words, he was furious!
He made a phone call and directed the security guards to come forward and try to subdue the rambling Mr. Li.
The company's security equipment was limited, and no one dared to approach Li Sheng, who was wielding a long knife.
Someone came up with a plan: they picked up a chair and smashed it at Li Sheng.
The knife missed Li Sheng and instead attracted him to chase after it with the knife in hand!
Just when everyone was at a loss and could only wait for the police to arrive, a guy with messy hair walked out of the crowd.
"Hey, are you looking to die? Back off!"
"Step back, don't go any further!"
The security guards yelled at Ling Ziqian.
Ling Ziqian wasn't going to Li Sheng's place; he was just going to get a chair.
Several security guards ran over and tried to pull Ling Ziqian away.
Ling Ziqian grabbed a chair, used up some of his "ambiguity points," and threw the chair from a distance of more than ten meters!
No one believed that such a thin person could throw a chair more than ten meters away, let alone that the chair could hit the crazed Li Sheng.
However, the chair landed squarely on Li Sheng, knocking him to the ground.
This scene was simply unbelievable; everyone was completely stunned.
Ling Ziqian was speechless. He looked at the security guards next to him and said, "What are you all standing there for? Go and hold him down!"
As Li Sheng, who had been hit, tried to get up, the security guards swarmed forward and pinned him to the ground.
With Li Sheng arrested, the canteen was no longer dangerous, and everyone returned.
Gao Wenhui stood on the second floor and saw Ling Ziqian, with his disheveled hair, make his move, but he didn't know who Ling Ziqian was.
Hou Qin stood beside him and told Gao Wenhui that it was Ling Ziqian who had signed up to participate in the manager's selection process.
Upon hearing the name Ling Ziqian, Gao Wenhui, the man with slanted eyes, immediately became furious. "That Ling Ziqian! I suspect that Li Sheng was instigated by him. What a clever two-birds-with-one-stone tactic!"
"Kill two birds with one stone?" Hou Qin couldn't understand what Gao Wenhui was saying.
"He instigated Li Sheng to insult me, trying to ruin my reputation. He, on the other hand, wanted to win everyone's favor and get their votes. Even Li Sheng, whom so many security guards couldn't handle, was handled by this skinny guy. Don't you think they were in cahoots?"
After Gao Wenhui said those words, Hou Qin suddenly understood.
"Oh right, Li Sheng was dismissed by you. If Ling Ziqian becomes the manager, he can dismiss me and bring Li Sheng back. He's really playing a clever game!"
"If he spreads this around, humph, he's trying to win everyone's favor. I'll show everyone what kind of person he is!"
Gao Wenhui shouted angrily.
Hou Qin immediately took out her phone and spread the news.
On the first floor of the cafeteria, the chaos had subsided, the food on the ground had been cleaned up by the cleaners, and everything had returned to normal. Everyone was lining up to get their food.
Ling Ziqian's actions just now won him a lot of goodwill.
When he was queuing for food, everyone gestured to him that he didn't need to queue and could go directly to the window.
Ling Ziqian placed two meals on the table and waved to Chen Qian.
Chen Qian walked over, feeling embarrassed.
"You really are..." Sitting down to eat, Chen Qian didn't know how to make fun of Ling Ziqian.
"What, do you think I'm impulsive?" Ling Ziqian smiled.
"It was impulsive, you did rush in when everyone else was avoiding it. You're such an idiot, but you did act bravely." Chen Qian had a high opinion of Ling Ziqian.
The two were eating and talking when several uniformed police officers walked into the cafeteria.
When the police started questioning some people, many turned to look at Ling Ziqian.
Seeing the police walking towards him, Ling Ziqian felt a chill run down his spine. He remembered the last time he hid under the stage and was searched by the police.
"Don't be afraid. What you did just now was a heroic act. I think they're here to praise you," Chen Qian said with a smile.
"I hope so," Ling Ziqian said, feeling somewhat uneasy.
A moment later, two policemen walked up to Ling Ziqian.
One of them asked, "Are you Ling Ziqian?"
Ling Ziqian nodded.
"We suspect you instigated Mr. Li to cause trouble with a knife. Please come with us," the police officer said.
"No way?" Upon hearing this, Chen Qian was shocked. "Ling Ziqian was just doing a good deed. How could he have instigated Li Sheng to cause trouble? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
“If we’ve made a mistake, we’ll clear his name!” another policeman shouted impatiently.
However, at this point, Ling Ziqian was far from innocent!
