Unable to bear it any longer, Qiao Yin defended herself: “I haven’t eaten for a day and a night, so of course I’m very hungry. It’s impressive enough that I didn’t eat a whole cow.”
Lu Lingche looked at her haggard face and stopped teasing her intentionally.
Her abduction had subjected her to horror and hardship that most people can hardly imagine. Being able to converse with him normally was already quite remarkable.
Her strength and resilience were beyond his expectations.
A striking bloodstain was visible on her fair neck, clearly a knife wound sustained from the kidnapper.
He had no clue how she concocted strategies against the kidnapper and defended herself.
His fingertips inadvertently brushed over her neck, causing Qiao Yin to shiver.
She brushed away Lu Lingche’s hand, got off his leg, and sat herself to one side.
Having eaten and drunk well, she had finally regained some energy. She was no longer shivering from the cold and thus didn’t need him anymore.
However, the aftermath of the concussion was not something easy to shake off. She felt dizzy and nauseous when she tried to sit up.
Despite feeling unwell, she remembered what the kidnapper had said and couldn’t help but ask Lu Lingche, “The older kidnapper mentioned that he had killed someone before. The person they killed was from your corporation. Shengling Group is such a large corporation, it’s unjust not to pay wages. As the CEO, don’t you have any control over it?”
If they had paid in due time, perhaps the kidnapper wouldn’t have acted as he did, she wouldn’t have had to experience such hardship.
Lu Lingche frowned, “Who did he kill?”
“I’m not sure, but the kidnapper mentioned that the boss is surnamed Huang and he was responsible for the construction site,” she said.
Lu Lingche’s face darkened, “Huang Liwei. So, his death was no accident, he was murdered.”
“When did he die?”
“He died on the construction site during the first month I took over the corporation,” Lu Lingche replied.
“He must have held back a lot of money from more people than just the kidnapper. If he was even skimping on the construction workers’ wages, he was truly inhumane. This kidnapper and his son were both suffering from serious illness, they needed money to save their lives. Yes, they are to blame, but they also suffered from injustice. The kidnapper particular despises wealthy people. Who are you guys hiring in your corporation? How could this Huang become a boss?”
Lu Lingche glanced at her, “Huang Liwei is a relative of the Yao Family. His entire family works for the subsidiaries of Shengling Group.”
Madam Lu’s maternal family name was Yao.
“So, anyone related to your corporation has to be hired? They earn money in unjust ways, together deceiving the poor workers?”
With a stern face, Lu Lingche spoke, “I’ve only taken over the corporation for a few months. The Huang Family entered the corporation under my elder brother’s admittance. He treats everyone as trustworthy. It wasn’t until I leveraged a hacker attack on the corporation that my father had no choice but to compromise with me. Do you think I can do whatever I want with such a large corporation?”
Qiao Yin’s heart skipped a beat, “What hacker?”
“Not a big deal, just a hacker with a grudge against the corporation. He attacked our corporation’s network, causing it to come to a halt. To gain more power in the corporation, I intentionally let it happen, using the hacker’s attack to negotiate with my father,” Lu Lingche explained.
Qiao Yin was dumbfounded upon hearing this.
It turned out that all the time she had been fighting against the Shengling Group, she was actually helping Lu Lingche!
No wonder when she threatened to invade the Shengling Group, he told her he was looking forward to it!
She toiled so much for so many days and not only failed to get her rightful bonus of one million US dollars, but also helped Lu Lingche take control of the corporation’s human resources?
This man is extremely cunning. He is really inhumane, completely inhuman!!
Seeing Qiao Yin lost in thought, Lu Lingche thought she couldn’t understand these things. He no longer mentioned the hacker and changed the subject, “Huang Liwei’s project was overseen by the construction company under the corporation. I will send people to check it out again. The same will be done with other projects, and there won’t be any more delays in the workers’ wages..”
