On Monday morning, news of the freighter accident suddenly spread. It was both a natural disaster and a man-made disaster.

Faced with the huge amount of compensation, the atmosphere in the entire company became depressing and gloomy, and many people hid in the tea room whispering and discussing in low voices.

"Hey, Huang Bo, do you know? I heard that the batch of goods Xinhai sent to Europe was soaked in water, and the company has to pay a lot of money."

"Ah, no way, Huang Shan, where did you hear this news? This batch of goods involves a huge amount of money. I heard before that it was over 10 million."

"You don't know? This morning, the news spread as soon as I got to work. I heard that Mr. Wang and He Tian were so anxious that they smashed the table in the office."

When Huang Shan saw Huang Bo's reaction, she knew that he didn't know the truth yet, so she couldn't wait to tell Huang Bo everything she knew.

"Well, what about Zhou Yian? Does she know about this? She has been following this client all the time." Huang Bo said and glanced at Zhou Yian's position. The position was empty. She had not come to work yet.

"I don't know if she knows or not. Anyway, she hasn't arrived yet."

As she spoke, she leaned closer to Huang Bo mysteriously and lowered her voice deliberately, "I heard that the company originally had several cargo ships that had purchased full marine insurance, but Zhou Yian arranged a ship that only bought basic insurance. It would have been fine if nothing happened, but this time, the insurance company didn't pay enough, and the company had to bear the rest."

"Oh my god! If this is true, the company won't be able to make up for the loss even if it sells everything it has. The company won't go bankrupt, right?" Huang Bo looked up in shock and looked at Huang Shan in surprise, seriously doubting the authenticity of the news.

"Shh, don't react so strongly. I just heard it. I can't guarantee whether it's true or not." Huang Shan looked around cautiously. Fortunately, there were not many people working in the office. There were only a few people sitting sparsely, and they were all far away from Huang Bo's workstation. They probably didn't hear what she said.

"No, Huang Shan, where did you hear this news?"

Huang Shan was afraid that Huang Bo would suspect that she was making up rumors, so she quickly explained, "When I came here just now, I passed by Mr. Wang's office and heard a loud quarrel inside. It was about this matter. You can ask Xiao Su at the front desk and Xiao Gong from the engineering department. The quarrel was too loud and many people heard it, not just me."

"Well, if this is true, the truth will come out sooner or later."

"A lot of people know it, but they all know it but don't say it..."

"Yian, you're here."

Huang Shan was speaking excitedly when a loud voice interrupted her. She quickly swallowed the words she had not finished.

"Yian, Manager He just came and said that if you came, he would ask you to go to the meeting room."

"Okay, I understand." Zhou Yian wondered if something had happened, otherwise why would he ask her to go to the meeting room so early in the morning before she even had a seat.

At the same time, her colleagues in the office looked up at her and cast subtle glances at her tacitly. Zhou Yian could feel this strange atmosphere, but time was running out, and she had no time to ask anything. She put down her bag and went to the company's meeting room.

It's a matter of life and death for the company. The once vibrant company became as quiet as dead water overnight. Everyone was afraid of getting into trouble, so they consciously quieted down and reduced their presence.

Zhou Yian came to the conference room. Only He Tian and Wang Lei were there. Both of them looked unusually serious.

"Well, Yi'an, there's something we want to tell you. This morning, we received news from the logistics department saying that Xinhai's cargo ship crashed two days ago. This was originally a natural disaster and had nothing to do with you, but because of your negligence, the company had to bear a huge amount of compensation." As soon as he entered the meeting room, before he even had time to say hello, He Tian couldn't wait to throw the blame over.

Zhou Yian was shocked and looked at him in confusion, "Manager He, what do you mean, my negligence?"

"The logistics route you planned before had an error in the ship number, which resulted in incomplete insurance. The company... will have to bear a huge amount of compensation. You have to bear the main responsibility for this matter." He Tian said as he handed over a stack of documents.

Zhou Yian took the document anxiously. It was a detailed list of items to be loaded on the ship. She was indeed the one who handled it, including the ship's transportation number at the end, which she had also seen many times. The only difference was that there was an additional risk assessment form, which clearly recorded that the freighter she was in charge of was not qualified to transport high-value materials.

"Manager He, I haven't seen this risk assessment form before." Zhou Yian flipped through the documents in a panic and explained anxiously.

"How could you not have seen it? I gave you this information before. I know that you, a little girl, are scared when encountering such a thing suddenly, but you can't evade responsibility like this." He Tian was the first to complain, and continued to frame Zhou Yian without blushing or beating his heart.

"No, Mr. Wang, Supervisor He really didn't give me this information before. If he had given it to me, I would not have arranged for this ship to go on a cross-border route without purchasing full marine insurance." Zhou Yian was panicked and looked at Wang Lei helplessly, hoping that he could do justice for him.

"Xiao Zhou, I can't help you with this matter. You shouldn't make such a low-level mistake, even if you are a new employee who has only been working for half a year."

Wang Lei, who had not said a word since she entered the door, finally spoke, and this speech startled Zhou Yian.

He did not investigate right or wrong and held the same idea as He Tian, ​​concluding that it was his own negligence in his work that caused the company to bear huge compensation.

He Tian tampered with the information previously submitted by Zhou Yian, and teamed up with Wang Lei to add the ship number after the freighter accident into the information. In this way, it seemed that Zhou Yian arranged for the freighter to go out to sea even though he knew that the ship was not insured and was not eligible to take a cross-border route.

Faced with the "ironclad evidence", Zhou Yian was shocked, stunned and speechless. He knew there was something fishy going on but could not find any evidence to prove his innocence.

At this moment, Zhou Yian finally understood how dangerous the workplace was. She looked at the two people in front of her, angry but powerless.

"So...is this my fault?" Zhou Yian looked at them with resentful and sad eyes.

"Yes, we haven't contacted Xinhai yet. Due to your dereliction of duty, I will let He Tian negotiate with Xinhai. As for what happens next, we'll have to wait and see how they handle the situation."

"Manager He, please tell the person in charge of Xinhai about these things. I will leave the follow-up of this matter to you and try to reduce the compensation."

Wang Lei looked at Zhou Yian indifferently. He knew she was innocent, but he did not show any mercy. Because being soft-hearted towards her would be cruel to himself. He has always been selfish and profit-seeking. How could he have mercy on a scapegoat?

"Okay, Mr. Wang, I'll contact Mr. Pang from Xinhai right away. Yian, this is a natural disaster after all, and we know you didn't mean it. We will try to find the best way to handle it, so don't worry too much." He Tianmao hypocritically comforted Zhou Yian like a crying rat.

Zhou Yi was willing to die and remained silent the whole time. She knew that in the face of absolute power, although she seemed to have the right to speak, it was actually just a silent cry.

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. You all can go down first. There is no result for the matter yet. We will talk about it later when there is progress."

Wang Lei waved his hand and asked them to go out.

Zhou Yian returned to her workstation in a daze. Her colleagues saw that she was not in a good state and did not dare to talk to her.

Everyone's eyes on her changed from admiration and jealousy to sympathy and gloating.

Lin Meng also noticed that Zhou Yian was not in a good state, so she sent her a message of comfort, but she read it and did not reply.

In the face of huge difficulties, even Lin Meng's comfort seemed pale and powerless.
