Chapter 5 — I Just Followed the Process Correctly

I interrupted him and picked up a file on the table.

“This is the payment form for third quarter advertising expenses that the marketing department just submitted, a total of 1.73 million yuan.”

“According to regulations, it requires the signature of you — the person in charge of the deputy general manager of this segment.”

I turned a few pages.

“But recently I checked again and discovered that there were three invoices, a total of 220,000 yuan, issued by an advertising company named Hoang Do Vi Nghiep.”

I raised my head and looked straight into his eyes.

“I looked it up.”

“The legal representative of this company is named Truong Thuy Hoa.”

“If I remember correctly…”

“Manager Liu, your wife has the same name, right?”

Manager Liu's face immediately turned pale. Cold sweat began to drip from my temples. His lips trembled, he couldn't say a word. His eyes looked at me as if I had just seen a ghost. He couldn't understand why I knew this. I still don't understand why I dare to directly expose it right in front of him.

“You... you're talking nonsense!”

He growled softly, strong on the outside but weak on the outside, his voice visibly trembling because of guilt.

"Trinh Suong, you can eat nonsense but you can't speak nonsense! This is slander!"

I ignored his shouting. Just gently push the payment form forward.

“Manager Luu, according to regulations, all transactions related to interests must be declared in advance to the company and proceed to avoid approval.”

“This payment of yours does not have any records.”

“I am a process specialist, responsible for blocking and reporting all invalid documents.”

My voice is not loud. But in the almost empty office right now, every word was heard clearly.

“Of course…”

“I'm just a small specialist.”

“If you think there is no problem with this process, then just sign here.”

“As long as you sign, I will immediately transfer the file to the finance department.”

“The story behind it… will no longer concern me.”

I put a pen down next to the form. At this moment, that pen felt like it weighed a thousand pounds. Manager Luu stared at the documents. Sweat fell from his forehead drop by drop. He did not dare to sign. Once you put down your pen, this piece of paper will become iron evidence of the abuse of power to pocket company assets. I'm forcing him to... Sign the evidence of his own crime with his own hand. There was only dead silence in the office. A long time later, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes blazing with resentment.

“Trinh Suong, what do you want?”

He lowered his voice, each word seemed to be forced out from between his teeth.

“Do you think you can do anything with this little bit of my soul?”

“I tell you, General Manager Chu will not touch me because of this trivial matter!”

“If you do that, you will only die faster!”

I laughed.

“Manager Liu, you misunderstood.”

“I don't want to do anything to you.”

“I just want to ask you for help with something.”

He stopped.

“What?”

“Isn't the West area project in need of legal opinions from a third party?”

I said slowly.

“I hope before ten o'clock tomorrow morning, the finance department will approve this budget.”

“And I also hope…”

“Finance Director Truong Hai will personally bring the signed budget form to my desk.”

Manager Luu co's pupils withdraw strongly. Immediately he understood what I meant. I'm using 220,000 yuan of black money from his wife's company... Exchanged for a passport for the Western area project process. He thought I was only on the first floor, simply wanting to capture him. But he didn't know... I stood on the third floor. My target is not a small fish like him. It was Truong Hai behind him. And finally… It's Zhou Kaiming.

“Dream!”

Manager Luu roared.

“No way!”

"Okay."

I nodded and took the file back.

“So now I will call General Supervisor Vuong of the internal inspection department.”

“By the way, send him this interesting set of documents.”

“Ah yes…”

“I even have a recording of our last conversation.”

I gently shook the phone. On the screen, the recording application's time bar is still jumping continuously. Manager Luu's face immediately turned white as paper. He was like a cornered animal, both crazy and chained by the neck, unable to escape. He glared at me, his chest heaving violently. He is considering. On one side is 220,000 yuan of black money and the risk of losing all ground. Just forcing Truong Hai to sign an autograph. This selected question... Actually, it's not difficult at all.

“Trinh Suong.”

He gritted his teeth and said every word, his voice filled with unwillingness and humiliation.

“Looks like you're awesome.”

Having finished speaking, he snatched the payment form and the other bills, turned around and rushed out of the office. I looked at his back, the smile at the corner of my lips becoming colder and colder. Zhou Kaiming.
