Liu Sheng’s voice was especially loud, and several colleagues in the corridor looked over.

Chu Yi covered her shirt with one hand and pointed at Liu Sheng with the other, unable to speak.

Seeing the gazes of her colleagues, she felt as if she had returned to the most tragic time when a group of people surrounded her, but no one believed her words.

“Just by looking at her, I can tell she’s not a good person!”

“A slut who seduced someone else’s husband. Look at her character. Who is she trying to fool by pretending to be pitiful?”

“At such a young age, she’s already so lowly. I bet she’s slept with many men. Disgusting!”

…

Not only did the others not believe her, but even Chu Yi’s uncle also did not believe her.

At that time, Chu Yi had been framed, and her grandma was not at home because she was tutoring students. So, her grandma had gone to her uncle to help her in seeking justice.

Unexpectedly, her uncle harshly slapped Chu Yi a few times. “You slut, you slut who was born without a mother. Just like your slut mother, you only know how to cause trouble for our family!”

Chu Yi recalled the unbearable past. When she saw the gazes of her colleagues, she froze in fear.

Suddenly, she felt a piece of clothing covering her head.

Chu Yi came back to her senses and quickly pulled it down. Then, she heard Song Ting’s voice. “Stop standing there and come with me,” Song Ting said.

It was only then that Chu Yi realized that the clothing covering her head was Song Ting’s suit jacket.

Chu Yi quickly folded the suit, but Wang Lin snatched it away and draped it over her shoulders.

Chu Yi gave Wang Lin a grateful look and Wang Lin patted her shoulder before turning to the other employees who were watching the scene. “The Song Corporation doesn’t employ idle people. You all seem to have nothing better to do?”

Upon hearing Wang Lin’s words, the colleagues dispersed, and Chu Yi followed Wang Lin back to the office.

“This matter has a huge impact on Song Corporation. Someone has already found out the CEO’s identity on the internet. Have you thought about how to handle it?” Wang Lin didn’t look at Chu Yi as she quickly sorted through her documents, but she kept reminding Chu Yi.

Chu Yi was grateful that despite everyone thinking she had used her body to get ahead, Wang Lin did not doubt or despise her. Instead, she was willing to remind her and even gave her a chance to redeem herself.

“You know where my shirt is. Change into it later. Take your time to think about how to respond to the CEO. I’ll handle the CEO first.” Wang Lin said before taking the documents and entering the CEO’s office.

Chu Yi changed her clothes and tried to calm herself down. Then, she went to the CEO’s office to report on her work.

However, Song Ting did not say a word until Chu Yi finished her report, which made her feel uneasy.

“President, the rumors about me on the internet are false. This matter has also implicated the Song Corporation and Young Master Shen. I will take responsibility.” Although Song Ting did not ask anything, Chu Yi took the initiative to speak.

If it were just a personal grudge between colleagues, it would be different, but now that it involved the Song Corporation and the Shen family, it was a serious matter.

“How will you take responsibility? This has already affected the company’s image, and you work by my side. I cannot let you stay.” Song Ting’s voice was cold, and Chu Yi shivered.

“No, CEO Song, this matter has nothing to do with me. I’m not the kind of person being described online. Please give me another chance,” Chu Yi said and clenched her fist.

Song Ting sneered and said, “Hmph, I can’t keep anyone who spreads rumors about the Song Corporation.”

He looked at his watch and said, “I’ll give you two hours to find that person. If you can resolve this matter, you can stay. Otherwise, get lost.”

Chu Yi bowed deeply and replied, “Okay, thank you, CEO.”

Time was running out, and Chu Yi stood in the elevator, continuously pondering how to solve this problem.

This person could not have directly targeted Shen Kai and Song Ting, so Chu Yi was the only one who was targeted.

Chu Yi could only think of one person, Liu Sheng. There could not be anyone else. As long as she could find the news that Liu Sheng had released, there would be evidence.

At this moment, Song Ting received a call from Shen Kai, “CEO Song, why are you so relaxed? When I went to the Song Corporation, there were rumors about me. My grandfather is going to hold me accountable. You can’t ignore this matter.”

Song Ting interrupted him and said, “Cut the nonsense. Tell me your plan.”

Shen Kai laughed and said, “How could I let him go when he dared to frame me? I obtained the evidence from the magazine. I will send it to you shortly. You can do whatever you want with it. I cannot let this matter go.”
