Chapter 1293: Start Making Trouble
that the child had nothing to do with Wu Yong, but could she say it If she dared, Wu Yong's mother would tear her apart. In the old woman's eyes, although Wu Lianyi was a girl, she was still part of t...Lu Yu (you) listened to Lian Yi's words and waved his hand, saying:
I thought it was a big deal, it's just a report! I can get it tomorrow too.
As he spoke, he reached out to grab Lian Ri's waist. Lian Ri lightly sidestepped, dodging Lu Yu's unwanted advances. Then, with a smile on her face, she said:
"Boss, when are you going to make good on your promise of a raise You don't keep your word, and it makes me feel like there's no point in working hard. Naturally, I have no mood to have dinner with you."
Lu Yu, upon hearing about the raise, immediately retracted his hand that was about to cause more trouble and ran it through his hair, saying in a perfunctory manner:
“Ripples, didn’t I just say that you need to achieve results before I can raise your salary After all, you haven't been with the company long and can't compare to the veteran employees. If I raise your salary, they’ll definitely be unhappy. How could I manage the company then That would cause chaos!”
He sounded quite eloquent, but Lian Yi immediately put on a sour face when she heard this, slamming the files on the table and her voice began to take on a sarcastic tone:
"You always pull this same trick on people, and you don't even consider how many old employees are left in the company. You still want me to have dinner with you Get a grip! Am I here for your looks, or because you haven't washed your hair"
"You..."
Lu Yu didn't react for a moment. The staff member, who was usually as docile as a little lamb, suddenly started dissing him. He was quite dumbfounded.
"Slap!" The ripples of water raised her hand and directly slapped away Lu Yu's outstretched finger. Then, she looked up at Lu Yu and said:
"Alright, stop acting like a big shot around here. Trying to take advantage of me You need to practice some more. I'm not letting you get away with this."
Ripple said that she would flip, and she flipped, throwing everything on the table to the floor, smashing the water glass, then messing up her hair, ripping open her little shirt, and slapped Lu You in the face right there, then shouting:
"You filthy scoundrel! What are you doing Don't you dare threaten me with my job! I quit!"
Then, with all her might, she shoved Lu Yu to the ground and dashed out of the office.
Because it was lunchtime, employees from other companies in the office building were going out to eat in small groups. Some people were too lazy to go out or were working overtime, so they ordered takeout. There were also delivery riders in yellow vests in the hallway. The commotion she caused immediately attracted a lot of attention.
Especially when everyone saw the frail Ripples, her clothes were disheveled and she was tearful as she rushed out, everyone smelled the scent of gossip. Some even directly switched to the spectator mode, peering into Ripples's office where she ran out.
R ripples ran to the police station in one breath, reporting that her boss had taken advantage of his position to sexually harass her and attempted to do something inappropriate. She cried so pitifully that the female officer in charge felt very sympathetic.
Sympathy is sympathy, but the female officer was still very professional and asked in detail about what happened.
Liàn Yī wrung her eyes, and choked out a sob as she recounted the details of Lù Yòu's harassment.
My parents passed away when I was young, so I had to support myself after graduating from university. Therefore, I cherish this job very much.
When I first started working at the company, it wasn't too bad because I was capable. Besides my accounting job, I also took on administrative tasks. The boss even promised me a raise if I did well.
Unfortunately, he soon hinted that he wanted to date me. But I wasn't stupid. How could a boss like him possibly be interested in someone like me, an orphan I knew my place, so I clearly rejected his advances.
After that, my boss started taking advantage of the situation to get close to me and make unwanted advances. I had already submitted my resignation, but today he still invited me to lunch. I refused, and then he... he started pulling me and... touching me. I started struggling.
But I was limited in my strength. When I started shouting, he panicked, pulled at my clothes, and I slapped him. Then I shoved him down and ran out. There were a lot of people around at the time, so there should be surveillance...
Here, the ripples have finished recording the details, and Lu You has also been called over to assist in the investigation.
Lu Yu refused to admit it, but according to the police's investigation, all the female employees on that floor said that Lu Yu did indeed like to touch pretty female employees inappropriately. So everyone generally avoided him, and some even stood up to say that Lu Yu had blocked Lin Yi several times. They had met, but Lin Yi always found excuses to run away.
As for whether he went wild today, there's no concrete evidence yet. However, Lianyi insisted that the other party was trying to harass her unsuccessfully, infuriating Lu You so much that he immediately hired a lawyer and wanted to pursue legal action, resolutely refusing to plead guilty.
In the end, Lian Yi, under the police's persuasion, decided to accept a settlement. Her small arm couldn't win against his big leg; as long as Lu You gave her adequate compensation, she would choose to let it go. After all, there was no direct evidence to prove that he was guilty.
The female officer sighed. She also knew this was the most beneficial approach for the victim because sexual harassment is indeed difficult to define. Some people have strong boundaries, while others are more carefree. The person involved might think it's just ordinary, normal contact.
When Ripples saw Lü Yòu and his lawyer, the latter glared at Ripples menacingly. Just as he was about to threaten her, the lawyer stopped him. Then, the lawyer said in a polite tone:
"Miss Qiu, you should know that without direct evidence, it will be difficult for you to win against Mr. Lu in court. And with this lawsuit record, I believe no company would want to hire an employee who sued their boss in the future!"
Ripple listened to the lawyer's words, her eyes narrowed slightly, then nodded and said seriously:
“Mr. Pan, you’re right. You can use your work to pressure me, this lone girl. And I can use my identity as a lonely woman and my experiences to create public opinion, making Lu Yu stink for three miles!”
It doesn't matter if I can't win. As long as this fact exists, I want to see how he hires people in the future, who is willing to marry him, who is willing to work with him, and how his company will operate going forward.
"You dare!!!"
Lu You almost jumped up, but he was held back by Lawyer Pan. His eyes flashed, he adjusted his glasses, and then slowed his voice:
"Miss Chou, I think this matter doesn't need to be escalated. Occupying public resources isn't a good thing. You are a woman after all, even if people sympathize with you now, you still have to survive in the future."
This society is not one where everyone is on your side. Moreover, you don't have concrete evidence yet. Some people might reasonably suspect that you were trying to seduce him and failed, so you are throwing mud at Boss Lu instead.
Upon hearing the lawyer surnamed Pan's words, Lian Ri finally looked him in the eye. Though she didn't see any ghosts following him, she clearly saw a black miasma of corruption surrounding him. It was evident that this man had also done evil deeds.
"Mr. Pan makes a valid point."
Liàn Yī nodded in agreement, then looked deeply into Lù Yòu's eyes and said:
"Mr. Lu, do you still remember the girl with a tear mole here"
Rill said she tapped the area two centimeters below the outer corner of her right eye.
Lu Yu was taken aback and didn't answer.
"You tricked her so badly, she's even carrying your child. It's a shame they both ended up dead!"
Ripple sounds echoed softly, and then her gaze shifted, meeting the eyes of the female ghost who followed Lu You.ianyi.Since then, Wu Lianyi's purse had become fatter because of her younger brother's slowly improving grades. Furthermore, Wan Guifen's public image as a doting mother to her favorite daughter adde...
