From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 872: Did the wallet grow legs and run in on its own?

Stationmaster Zhao carefully pondered Sun Xue's words.

He racked his brains for a long time, but couldn't think of any evidence that Sun Xue had.

He sneered in his heart: I don’t believe that I can’t control you?

Sun Xue had also made up her mind that if Director Liu and Stationmaster Zhao pushed her too far, she would hand over the recordings to the investigators.

Stationmaster Zhao is no ordinary person either. The reason why she helped Sun Xue before was also out of consideration for her own career.

He didn't want to get into trouble, but now that Director Liu was putting pressure on him, he had to take down Sun Xue.

The company soon had new troubles.

First, in the morning, the suppliers collectively demanded payment of the unpaid balance, and Sun Xue had not yet been able to cope with it.

In the afternoon, a contractor came to collect debts, and a group of workers came to ask for their overdue wages.

And a big news has spread in the company.

It was said that the company was on the verge of bankruptcy and Sun Xue was preparing to run away.

The scene of the riot was in chaos. All the workers who were making rectifications on the construction site dropped their tools and surrounded Sun Xue in the office.

Sun Xue patiently explained to everyone and told them not to believe the rumors, that the project only had some minor quality issues and would be rectified and passed acceptance soon.

Once the property starts selling, all overdue payments and workers' wages can be settled immediately.

How could the people who were besieging her listen to her? Soon someone called the staff from the Labor Bureau.

The scene was in chaos, especially the workers on the construction site, who threatened not to leave unless they got paid now.

She still had some money in her hand, enough to pay part of the workers' wages.

But she knew in her heart that she couldn't do that. Once the workers got the money, others would come together to ask her for the debt, and then there would be no way to resolve the situation.

Before she could cope with the situation here, something happened at home.

The call was from Liu Bin, who said that his grandfather was beaten while buying vegetables at the market and was now lying in the hospital.

"Liu Bin, take care of grandpa first. I'll be there as soon as I finish my work here."

Hearing the news, Sun Xue was extremely anxious, but she couldn't leave now.

Sun Xue and the debt collectors were invited into the Labor Bureau's office.

"The matter of withholding workers' wages is very serious. As the chairman of the company, do you understand this?"

The staff member's words made Sun Xue lower her head.

The worker representative added fuel to the fire, “You have been delaying our wages since last year. We understand your difficulties, and you should also understand our difficulties.

Many of us rely on this money to support our families. You have delayed it for several months or even half a year. Do you want us to live?"

"I heard that the quality of the project has serious problems. You said it can pass the inspection. You are obviously fooling us. No, we must pay off the money we owe today. If you run away like everyone said, where can we find you?"

"Yes, it must be settled. This kind of thing has happened before. Many real estate bosses' projects became unfinished buildings and they disappeared from the world immediately..."

In the Labor Bureau office, representatives launched a crusade!

"Please believe me and don't listen to any rumors. The company will not go bankrupt, and I will never run away. Give me some time. I promise I won't owe anyone a penny."

Sun Xue smiled apologetically and made patient promises to everyone.

However, everyone was still very excited and did not believe what Sun Xue said at all.

Finally, under the coordination of the staff, Sun Xue agreed to pay off all the debts within two months.

The various groups that denounced the policy only agreed reluctantly.

The moment she walked out of the Labor Bureau, Sun Xue suddenly felt tremendous pressure.

Given the current situation of the company, it is still unknown whether it can pass the acceptance in one month.

Even if the product is accepted, it will still take some time to sell.

She knew in her heart that these people's sudden disturbance and the rumors that were spreading wildly in the company were all carefully planned and arranged by Director Liu and Station Master Zhao.

After leaving the Labor Bureau, she went straight to the hospital.

As soon as I arrived at the hospital, I met Liu Bin who was going to the cafeteria to get food.

"How is Grandpa?"

"After a checkup, there was nothing serious, but there were scrapes on his face and he was kicked in the stomach a few times. Grandpa said his ribs hurt a bit."

"How could this happen? Who did it?" Sun Xue subconsciously clenched her fists.

"My grandfather said that when he came out of the vegetable market after buying vegetables, two young men hurriedly chased him out.

They insisted that he was the one who stole their wallets, so they searched him immediately and found a wallet with a wad of cash in it from the grandfather's bag of vegetables.

After my grandfather quarreled with them for a few words, the two young men beat him, pushed him to the ground, and kicked him hard.

Later, the onlookers helped call the police, and my grandfather was sent to the hospital, and the hospital staff called me. "

"Have the two men who beat Grandpa been caught?"

"I don't know. I've been in the hospital and haven't had time to ask about it."

When Sun Xue saw Old Man Sun lying on the hospital bed receiving an IV drip, she almost cried out of heartache.

There were scratches all over his face, and you could see the shadows left by disinfectant.

"grandfather....."

Old Man Sun looked up and smiled to comfort Sun Xue, "It's okay, Xue'er, it's just a little scrape, don't worry, you will be fine after a few days of rest."

"Grandpa, it's all my fault that I caused you trouble..."

Sun Xue guessed that, if nothing unexpected happened, it must be Director Liu and Stationmaster Zhao who arranged people to deliberately cause trouble.

Old Man Sun's eyes were red. "Xue'er, Grandpa didn't steal their wallets. Who knows when their wallets got into my bag of vegetables?"

"Grandpa, don't worry, this is not over yet." Sun Xue said angrily.

"Xue'er, forget about it. We can't afford to offend those hooligans! The hooligans threatened me that if they let me go this time, they would break my other leg next time!"

Old man Sun, who was kept in the dark, had no idea that these people were coming for Sun Xue.

Forget it?

how is this possible.

Liu Bin stayed with Old Man Sun in the hospital, and Sun Xue rushed to the police station immediately.

Seeing the aggressive Sun Xue, the police station officer patiently explained to her what had happened.

"Where's the one who hit me?"

"Let it go."

"Why was he released?" Sun Xue exclaimed.

"They admitted that it was wrong to hit someone and were willing to bear part of your grandfather's medical expenses, but the wallet was indeed in your grandfather's bag."

"My grandfather was framed. They must have secretly put it in there. Besides, there are surveillance cameras in the vegetable market. You can check the surveillance."

"We checked the surveillance footage and didn't find that they were the ones who put it there."

Sun Xue angrily asked back, "If they didn't put it there, could it be that the wallet grew legs and ran in there on its own?"

The police officer in charge of the case patiently explained, "Don't get excited. We also find this matter suspicious. We will investigate it thoroughly."

Sun Xue understood that although the vegetable market was monitored, there were still blind spots.

After leaving the police station, she called Stationmaster Zhao.

"Stationmaster Zhao. There was a commotion at the company and my grandfather was beaten up. You arranged all of this, right?"
