Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Zhao Guozhi and Cao Xueqin
"With this information, are you still afraid of bringing him down?" Fu Xiaoxiao looked at it as if it were a death warrant, signaling that Zhao Guozhi’s end was near.
"He’s probably very pleased with himself right now, having smeared my reputation and forced me to hide at home for four long years while he lived freely." Wu Yingying sneered, leading Fu Xiaoxiao to the director’s office.
"Enter." The director’s stern voice was heard.
Wu Yingying smiled as she pushed the door open; the director was momentarily stunned upon seeing her, then quickly stood to greet her. "Yingying, what brings you here?"
Seeing the director’s warm attitude, Fu Xiaoxiao blinked.
"Uncle Bai, I’m here to report something." Wu Yingying looked at Director Bai with a smile.
Director Bai was taken aback, then became serious in an instant. "Report what?"
"You’ll understand once you look at these." Wu Yingying placed the information in her hands before Director Bai, gesturing for him to read it.
After reading through the documents, Director Bai was furious, slamming the table. "A traitor under my nose, daring to act so audaciously."
"You girl, with something so important, why didn’t you tell me sooner?" Director Bai looked at Wu Yingying, thinking this matter could have been resolved four years ago, saving the trouble now.
"Sorry, I haven’t been in a great state these past few years. If it weren’t for Xiao Xiao’s guidance, I’d still be hiding at home!" Wu Yingying replied with a smile to Director Bai.
"If everything in this information is true, don’t worry, I won’t let him off." Director Bai assured Wu Yingying. "What exactly happened back then that you suddenly stopped coming?"
"I even called your father but couldn’t find out anything." Director Bai looked at Wu Yingying with concern.
"You’ll understand in a moment. I’m about to expose all his filthy deeds and clear my name!" Wu Yingying said seriously.
"Alright, I’ll turn the speaker up to full volume and have someone guard the door." Director Bai nodded in support.
With Director Bai’s backing, Wu Yingying made her way to the broadcasting room. Fu Xiaoxiao watched as Wu Yingying skillfully operated the equipment, lightly coughing into the microphone before slowly speaking.
"Comrades, today I’m going to tell you a story..." Wu Yingying’s clear voice echoed throughout the factory through the loudspeaker.
Zhao Guozhi was in his office, the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice causing a vague unease in his heart.
Until he heard his story through the loudspeaker, Zhao Guozhi was utterly stunned.
"Four years ago, when I was new to the factory and na?ve about everything, I met Zhao Guozhi. He was an ordinary employee leading a tough life, supporting his entire family on his meager salary. Somehow, he found out my identity, intentionally drew close to me, and treated me exceptionally well, gradually making me develop feelings for him..."
Wu Yingying revealed everything about how she was manipulated by Zhao Guozhi back then.
Zhao Guozhi’s face turned dark in an instant.
The whole factory was in an uproar.
Zhao Guozhi wanted to rush to the broadcasting room to stop Wu Yingying, but two guards were blocking the way, preventing him from getting close.
"Wu Yingying! Shut up! Stop talking! While you may not care, I do!"
Zhao Guozhi shouted, but inside, Wu Yingying didn’t hear him, focusing on exposing the disgusting behavior of Zhao Guozhi and his family.
"And Cao Xueqin, who ostensibly is Zhao Guozhi’s cousin, in reality, she’s his lover. The Zhao Family parents have long known about their relationship. Even after Zhao Guozhi almost got engaged to me, she continued living in the apartment assigned to me..."
As Zhao Guozhi listened to their story being exposed by Wu Yingying, Cao Xueqin’s face turned pale, and the factory workers’ gazes made her feel humiliated.
Especially since Cao Xueqin had just gotten engaged and was about to marry Li Dahai, Li Dahai could practically see the betrayal glowing above his head.
"Slap!" With a cold face, Li Dahai rushed up to Cao Xueqin and slapped her hard.
"Bitch! I wondered why you were always with your cousin; turns out you’re a pair of filthy adulterers! You put a green hat on me and took my four hundred yuan betrothal gift! You’re damn impressive!" Li Dahai shouted at Cao Xueqin, who had been slapped to the ground.
"No, Dahai, she’s lying! She misunderstood my relationship with my cousin back then; we’re really innocent!" Cao Xueqin cried, clinging to Li Dahai. She couldn’t afford to lose him.
[There must be people who will question me, say I’m oversensitive, maybe jealous, or misunderstand their relationship as adulterers. Here, I must clarify something: I saw with my own eyes their illicit act when I left early from work one day. On Cao Xueqin’s lower back, there is a black mole.]
As Wu Yingying’s voice from the broadcast reached this point, Li Dahai’s previously subdued rage reignited.
"Alright! You still dare say you have nothing to do with him. Someone saw you with their own eyes! You filthy whore! I’ve spent so much money on you; you better pay it all back! A woman with no sense of decency is not someone I want! Pah! Adulterous couple!" Li Dahai kicked Cao Xueqin away.
"No, I really didn’t..." Cao Xueqin cried in grievance, but who would believe her now!
"Shameless, I knew she wasn’t decent, always flirting with the men at the factory."
"Indeed, acting all coquettish like she’s never seen a man before."
"I’ve seen her cozying up to male colleagues several times, getting all flirtatious with them, almost clinging onto them."
Female colleagues were already annoyed with Cao Xueqin and now, with Wu Yingying exposing everything, the collective anger erupted, and more of her past actions were revealed.
The men who had helped her or had ambiguous relations with her looked grim.
The men backed away, the women pointed and criticized, and Cao Xueqin lowered her head in deep embarrassment.
"Everyone, look! Zhao Guozhi is being taken away by the Red-Armband people!" someone shouted, and everyone rushed outside.
Zhao Guozhi, escorted through the corridor, caught sight of Wu Yingying standing amongst the crowd and suddenly flew into a rage.
"Wu Yingying, have you lost your mind?"
"Zhao Guozhi, I told you, I would come back eventually." Wu Yingying said coldly as she looked at him.
"What good does it do you to bring me down!" Zhao Guozhi gritted his teeth. "Aren’t you afraid of implicating our daughter?"
Hearing Zhao Guozhi trying to drag the innocent Little Linlin into the mess, Wu Yingying was about to lash out, but was stopped by Fu Xiaoxiao.
Fu Xiaoxiao’s eyes turned cold as she stepped forward.
"Zhao Guozhi, you and Yingying aren’t married. If you get into trouble, no one else will be implicated, only your own direct line."
"Instead of worrying about that, you better think about how many years you’ll be behind bars! You were already taking kickbacks and embezzling factory funds four years ago. In these four years, you couldn’t have had a sudden change of heart and stopped, right? Let everyone guess how much you might have pocketed during these four years?"
With one statement from Fu Xiaoxiao, everyone’s attention shifted away from Little Linlin and back to Zhao Guozhi, more concerned about how much money he had embezzled over the past four years.
