Chapter 19 Cooling Down Mom
- In the secretary department, Lin Fei was irritated by Jiang Yihan's words.
- Who does he think he is, claiming that no one would dare to hire her if she left this company!
- What nonsense about rights!
- What does he mean by making her pay a price!
- She simply wanted to leave, what's wrong with that? It didn't involve any significant interests. Did that jerk really have to threaten her like that?
- Lin Fei slumped on the desk, her delicate face distorted from the pressure, but she didn't care.
- "Don't fall asleep, there's a new task."
- With a loud bang, a noise rang in her ears, causing Lin Fei to immediately jump up from the desk. Rubbing her ear, she turned her head to see. When she saw the stack of files, Lin Fei felt terrible.
- "Do I have to do all of this by myself?"
- It was so thick, how could she possibly handle it alone?
- "Yes, they all need to be done by tomorrow. Hurry up and organize them," Huang Jing said and left.
- Lin Fei looked at the stack of files and felt a headache coming on.
- This was blatant exploitation! Revenge!
- Despite her complaints, the work still had to be done. Lin Fei could only swallow her anger.
- But she didn't expect that it wouldn't just be today, but several days of exploitation.
- Facing the mountain of files every day, Lin Fei was frustrated, but she had no choice but to continue working tirelessly.
- In the brightly lit secretary department.
- Lin Fei rubbed her eyes, yawned, carefully checked the last line of data, entered and saved it. When she looked up, everyone had already left, and it was dark outside.
- Suddenly, a flash of light broke through the darkness, startling Lin Fei.
- It was going to rain, and she had to hurry.
- But she was still a step too late. By the time she reached the company's entrance, it was already pouring heavily.
- The light from her phone screen in the dark rainy night was weak and ethereal, like a firefly.
- It was already half past twelve now, and Lin Fei didn't know how many times she had worked overtime until this time. These days, she was always the last one to leave.
- It was all because of Jiang Yihan's pettiness!
- He made her work overtime every day, and by the time she got home, her second child was already asleep. She didn't even have time to play with them. Now she had to endure getting soaked in the rain on her way back.
- After cursing Jiang Yihan in her heart, Lin Fei resolutely put her bag on her head and rushed into the rain with determination.
- Now it's already autumn, and she is not wearing much. The rain is falling on her, chilling her to the bone and making her shiver.
- Lin Fei ran to the bus stop and took shelter while waiting for the bus. The rain was pouring heavily, and when the wind blew, the rain floated into the shelter, drenching Lin Fei.
- By the time she returned home, it was already two in the morning. The lights in the neighborhood were all off, except for a few motion-sensor lights along the walkway that lit up when they heard a sound, illuminating the path ahead for Lin Fei.
- She unlocked the door with her keys, and the inside of the house was pitch black.
- Lin Fei fumbled to turn on the lights, took off her wet shoes, and walked barefoot into the bathroom.
- The mirror in the bathroom reflected her disheveled appearance, with wet hair hanging down, a few strands sticking to her face, and half of her makeup smudged. Her clothes were completely soaked, revealing her attractive curves.
- No wonder the taxi driver looked at her with ill intentions.
- Lin Fei took off her clothes and took a hot shower. Perhaps because she soaked for too long, when she stood up, she felt a bit dizzy and weak, almost stumbling.
- Leaning against the wall to steady herself, Lin Fei dried her hair and went into the bedroom. She got into bed, holding the soft and fragrant Erbao in her arms. Her exhausted nerves relaxed, and she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
- The next morning.
- Due to the heavy rain last night, the air in the morning was exceptionally fresh.
- Aunt Hui opened the door and noticed several water stains in the living room. Thinking that Lin Fei had forgotten to mop the floor, she grabbed a mop and cleaned up the water stains.
- "How did the water get into the bedroom?"
- Aunt Hui pushed the door open in confusion and found that it was not closed, just slightly ajar.
- "Feier, are you home?"
- "Aunt Hui!" Jinjin heard the sound of the door opening and saw Aunt Hui. Rubbing her eyes, she called out.
- "Aunt Hui!" Weili also turned her head and called out.
- Inside the room.
- Lin Fei was lying on the bed, asleep, with a white towel on her forehead. Jinjin and Weili's yellow pajamas were also wet in a large area, and there were damp marks on the blanket.
- Weili's little hand was still pressing on the towel on Lin Fei's forehead.
- When Aunt Hui saw the situation in the room clearly, she was shocked and exclaimed, "What happened here?"
- "Aunt Hui, Mommy won't wake up. Guoguo said Mommy is sick." Jinjin crawled to Lin Fei's side, pointing her little finger at her.
- Upon hearing this, Aunt Hui hurriedly approached to check Lin Fei's complexion. Her lips were pale and transparent, and her face had an abnormal flush.
- Taking away the towel and reaching out, Huiyi immediately withdrew her hand as the scorching temperature burned her palm. She tried to wake up Lin Fei, "Fei'er? Fei'er? Wake up, don't sleep."
- Lin Fei lay on the bed, breathing heavily, without any response.
- "Why doesn't Mom wake up? Is it like what we see on TV, she won't wake up?" Jinjin, usually cute and soft, now seemed surprisingly rational.
- Vivi's small body stiffened, and the towel slipped from his little hand.
- The two little ones' understanding made Huiyi's heart ache. She comforted them gently, "No, no. Your mom is just sick. She will wake up when she gets better. Don't move, Aunt Hui will call and take your mom to the hospital."
- The two little ones nodded and sat still, waiting. After Huiyi finished the call and came back, she changed their clothes and noticed that their hands were red and very cold.
- Then she saw the wet towel on the blanket and suddenly understood.
- It seemed that the two little ones saw Lin Fei with a fever and tried to cool her down with a wet towel, just like they saw on TV.
- ...
- In the conference room.
- The man sitting in the main seat exuded a powerful aura. His cold and stern face was covered with a layer of frost, and his tightly drawn jawline and slightly pursed lips revealed his terrible mood.
- Everyone kept their heads down, afraid to even breathe.
- "If you can't locate them, everyone involved in this collaboration case can leave immediately!" The man's voice was icy as he tossed the documents in his hand onto the table, scattering them in all directions.
- Han Li stood beside him, his expression cold and serious.
- "The consequences of this leaked plan, I believe I don't need to elaborate further. All of you have been involved in this plan. If you wish to remain here, find the person responsible for the leak."
- Everyone exchanged glances, unsure of who exactly was responsible.
- In fact, no one anticipated an incident at such a critical moment. Now, in the search for the culprit, no one seemed to fit the description, and everyone appeared suspicious.
- Han Li observed the perplexed faces of the individuals and realized that it would be impossible to identify the culprit in a short period of time. He glanced at the man beside him, who nodded in approval, and spoke once more.
- "You have two days to find the person, or else the company will not hesitate to take action."
- "Yes."
- Everyone responded with trepidation.
- The man's cold gaze swept over them, his commanding presence intimidating everyone. No one dared to raise their heads. It was only when he departed that the conference room filled with sighs of relief, both big and small.
- In the afternoon.
- Han Li entered the CEO's office to provide an update. "Sir, based on the investigation, the plan was leaked within the secretary department."
- Jiang Yihan's face remained composed, his narrow and deep black eyes revealing no emotion. He tapped his fingers on the table, signaling for Han Li to continue.
- Han Li understood and continued, "The individuals in the Secretariat Department claim that they all left on time and did not notice any suspicious behavior, except for Lin, the secretary who is always the last to leave."
- Jiang Yihan's fingers, which had been lightly tapping on the table, halted. His narrow and deep eyes gleamed with a cold intensity.
- "Where is she?"
- "Lin, the secretary, did not come to work today and did not request leave," Han Li honestly replied.
- A faint smirk appeared on the corner of Jiang Yihan's lips, tinged with derision.
- "So, she fled?"
