Chapter 198 Prestige Rises
The incident caused quite a stir, spreading throughout the entire company in just a few minutes, sparking widespread discussion.
Ji Jingshen had just arrived at the company entrance when he received a call from his secretary.
"The CEO is in trouble."
The secretary quickly told him about Jin Xiaoxiao's trouble-making, and Ji Jingshen's face immediately darkened.
"I see."
After handing the documents to his secretary, he went inside and saw Jin Xiaoxiao making a scene in the lobby.
The people around seemed to have noticed his arrival, and the whispers subsided, but the gossipy gazes directed at Ji Jingshen did not diminish at all.
Jin Xiaoxiao noticed him too, and was momentarily nervous, but quickly regained her composure and looked at Ji Jingshen with a confident and righteous expression.
"Mr. Ji, you've finally arrived. I thought you were all talk and no action. You weren't like this when you forced me last night. How come you fired me after just one night? Or is Mrs. Ji just jealous?"
"If that's really the case, then he's being immature. After all, the one who isn't loved in a marriage is the mistress. If she's smart, she should leave the relationship as soon as possible."
Ji Jingshen frowned, his face turning ashen, and gave her a disdainful look.
"If you don't have common sense, you can look it up online. How could a person possibly have any reaction when drunk? And even if I were drunk, I wouldn't have any reaction to someone like you."
Jin Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Jingshen angrily. How could he say that to her?
“Ms. Jin, we are Mr. Ji’s legal team. What you did last night and this morning has caused Mr. Ji tremendous emotional damage. Moreover, our investigation has revealed that you are suspected of corporate espionage and may very well be an undercover agent sent by our rival.”
"This is the evidence we have collected. We have filed a lawsuit against you and Cheng Linhao, and you will soon receive a summons from the court."
Jin Xiaoxiao, who had originally wanted to continue, turned pale upon hearing his words and looked at Ji Jingshen in shock.
How...how could this happen?
Cheng Linhao clearly said that this matter would not have any impact, so why has it turned out like this now?
"You...you're slandering me!"
Jin Xiaoxiao forced herself to remain calm, "Just because you say you have evidence doesn't mean it's true! I could say you're fabricating evidence!"
Since Ji Jingshen arrived, the onlookers have been as quiet as chickens. After all, everyone has witnessed his business acumen, and no one wants to be the first to stick their neck out.
“You did see the president off last night, but after you left the hotel, you went straight to the hotel across the street and spent three hours in that room with Cheng Linhao’s subordinate before coming out.”
"If someone has really done something excessive to you, there's a very high chance that person is Cheng Linhao's subordinate. If Miss Jin needs help, we can offer our assistance as a token of our appreciation for your hard work last night."
As he spoke, he took out a stack of photos from his bag, all of which were pictures of him meeting with Cheng Linhao's subordinates. The most recent photos were taken last night when the two of them went to the hotel.
Jin Xiaoxiao's face turned deathly pale. That person had clearly said that all the surveillance footage had been deleted and that no one would be able to investigate it. Why were they still photographed? Looking at the photos on the ground, she felt as if she had been stripped naked.
Seeing her like this, the people around her instantly understood that all of this was done by Cheng Linhao and Jin Xiaoxiao in order to frame Ji Jingshen.
The secretary adjusted her glasses and kindly reminded him, "According to our country's laws, those who intentionally slander and frame others will be detained for up to three months, or imprisoned for more than three years but less than five years."
The legal team standing by was very helpful; almost immediately after the secretary spoke, they confidently stepped forward and said, “Ms. Jin, don’t worry. With our abilities, we can definitely provide you with five years of free housing.”
At this moment, Jin Xiaoxiao could no longer stand and fell to the ground with a thud.
It's all over.
"No! This has nothing to do with me. I was just used. I was just doing a job for money. I don't know anything. Mr. Ji, please spare my life. What do you want to know? I'll tell you everything."
Jin Xiaoxiao was frightened, so Ji Jingshen glanced indifferently at the people next to him. The lawyer and security guards immediately understood his meaning and quickly stepped forward to take her away.
"I need to clean up all those comments online. I don't want these things to affect Qianyi."
After saying that, he called Song Qianyi and told her everything that had happened at the company, while also embellishing Cheng Linhao's sinister intentions.
He finally felt relieved when he heard Song Qianyi angrily scolding Cheng Linhao on the phone and telling him to teach Cheng Linhao a lesson.
After this incident, Ji Jingshen's prestige in the company was re-established, even surpassing its previous level.
The president of the Ji Group is truly resilient; even when drunk, he remains unmoved by the advances of beautiful women. Working with someone like him gives you a great sense of security.
The Ji Group's reputation soared overnight.
Ji Jingshen didn't care about this, but simply had his secretary investigate Cheng Linhao's recent whereabouts.
"President, our team has discovered that Cheng Linhao owns some shares in the Song Group. Should we inform Madam?"
If it were anything else, it would be easier to handle, but if the Song Group's shares were to be destroyed by Cheng Linhao's family, then the Madam's family's group would definitely be affected.
Ji Jingshen frowned, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the table.
After all that has happened, he believes that Song Qianyi has completely let go of Cheng Linhao, and he also believes that once Song Qianyi finds out that Cheng Linhao still holds shares in the Song Group, she will definitely not give up.
……
After getting home from get off work, Ji Jingshen immediately told Jin Xiaoxiao about being fired.
"Aren't you afraid he might steal some secrets from your company?"
“All the important documents in the company are kept in my safe. Even if he tries to steal them, he won’t be able to steal anything important, and he’ll likely end up in a dead end.”
Ji Jingshen looked at Song Qianyi with an arrogant expression.
Song Qianyi was amused and really wanted to share what happened at the company today with him, but then she saw Ji Jingshen looking hesitant.
"Did something happen? Why do you look so pale?"
"My people have discovered that Cheng Linhao owns shares in the Song Group. Do you need me to help you buy them back?"
Hearing his words, Song Qianyi was stunned. After thinking about it carefully, her face turned somewhat embarrassed.
That's really true, and it was caused by the original owner of this body.
"I can handle this myself. I'll ask you for help if I can't handle it."
She needed to devise a perfect way to kick Cheng Linhao out of the company, ideally one that would ruin his reputation.
Ji Jingshen nodded, but he was a little curious about how Cheng Linhao acquired his shares.
