Chapter 15
Chapter 15 — The 420 Thousand Yuan Car And The Marriage Was Returned
I looked straight into his eyes.
"Because before..."
"I thought you were human."
The stethoscope in Bui Nghien Chu's hand slid down slightly. Before the meeting ended. He pressed against the glass. The voice trembled.
"Don't let me go to jail."
"Your project is gone."
"Jobs will also be lost."
"My mother can't stand it."
"Nien Niem is still pregnant."
"You really will lose everything."
I gently put down the receiver. Separated by glass. He's still calling my name. But all sounds are crushed by the soundproofing. It no longer reaches my ears. What happened next happened faster than I thought. The incident on the highway involves public safety. The investigation agency asked the car company to provide system data. The results confirmed: Bui Nghien Chu did indeed use internal technical rights. Send a remote speed limit command to my vehicle. After the incident happened. He also logged into the system to delete the operation log. But the company's server still stores the unusual access history. Not long after. His company announced the decision to handle it internally. Bui Nghien Chu was suspended from work. Key project access rights revoked. Continue to coordinate the investigation. Luc Thanh for destroying evidence and plundering documents. Subjected to administrative sanctions. At the same time, compensation for related losses must be made. The wound on Nguyen Niem Niem's hand. After comparing additional cameras and hospital records. It was confirmed that she bumped herself into the edge of the scissors. Testimony that I intentionally injured her. Also clearly stated in the conciliation minutes. The defamatory video spread within the company. After the legal department sends the official dispatch. The first person to post has deleted all content. At the same time, publicly apologize. That person... is Nguyen Niem Niem's high school classmate. She received 2,000 yuan from Nguyen Niem Niem. To distribute videos to local groups. The date the management review board is restored. The human resources department called me into the office.
"After comprehensive review."
"The company decided to appoint her as project manager."
"For previous unsatisfactory handling..."
"We officially apologize."
I accept the appointment decision. The paper is very light. But it felt like part of the burden that had been weighing on my chest for a while had been lifted. When leaving the company. On Nhuoc Duong was standing downstairs waiting for me. In her hand is a bunch of bright sunflowers.
"Congratulations."
I laughed.
"Why did you come here?"
"I quit my job today."
Wen Nhuoc Duong took off the employee name tag. Put it in your bag.
"The manager said you like to meddle in other people's matters."
"But after knowing the whole story..."
"The automaker's compliance and after-sales department invited me to work."
"Salaries will increase even more."
We stood in the sunlight. Laughed for a long time. The phone suddenly rang. Just picked up the phone. On the other end of the line, Nguyen Niem Niem's voice was heard. No longer soft and weak.
"Hua Tri Vi."
"Are you satisfied now?"
"Mr. Nghien Chu doesn't need me anymore."
"He said the baby had nothing to do with him."
"Tell me to handle it myself."
I'm not surprised. A man can betray me. Then you might as well throw her away.
"That's between the two of you."
Nguyen Niem Niem burst into tears.
"But he promised to take care of me all my life!"
I Look at the traffic passing by on the side of the road.
"The words he said..."
"Not worth a penny."
The other end of the line suddenly became high-pitched.
"It's all because of you!"
"If you hadn't investigated the evidence, things wouldn't have turned out like this!"
"I just want to live a little better!"
"What's wrong with me?"
I hung up. A few days later. Luc Dinh Van told me. Nguyen Niem Niem went to Bui's house to cause trouble. At first Bui's mother saw her as a treasure. But after hearing that Bui Nghien Chu could be severely disciplined. She started to hate her again because she thought she was a burden. Two people argued right in front of the residential area gate. Nguyen Niem Niem took out the pregnancy examination form and forced her to get married. Bui's mother pointed straight at her face and said:
"Who knows if the baby is a descendant of the Bui family?"
That statement was filmed by the neighbors. Then it was transmitted back to their hometown. Because Luc Thanh was punished, he lost his job. The whole family put all responsibility on Nguyen Niem Niem. She can't afford the rent. In the end, we can only return to our hometown. Also not kept. Not because anyone forced her. But because from start to finish. Bui Nghien Chu has never come to see her once. Wedding deposit. Funds withdrawn from joint account. The clothes were taken away. Compensation money for grandmother's damaged photo album. Luc Dinh Van helped me reclaim each payment. The date the money is transferred to the account. Bui's mother called me more than ten times. Blocked number. She changed to another number.
"Tri Vi ah..."
Her voice was completely haggard.
"You spoke a bit harshly before."
"Don't take it to heart."
"Nghien Chu drinks alcohol every day now."
"The job is also gone."
"In his heart he still has you."
"Can I go back and visit him once?"
"Why didn't he call himself?"
Bui's mother burst into tears.
"It's bleeding from the stomach."
"In hospital."
"The doctor said if this continues, it will be a failure."
"Tri Vi..."
"You two have seven years of love."
