Chapter 5 — The Day I Locked 9,200,000 Yuan Into the Trust Fund

The mother-in-law's chest rose and fell violently, and finally forced out a sentence:

“…Sorry.”

I looked at Trinh Dao again. She still had tears streaming down her face.

“Sister-in-law… sorry.”

Finally, I looked at Trinh Yen. He was silent for a long time.

"…Sorry."

I nodded.

“I heard it.”

He thought this matter was over and just breathed a sigh of relief. I coldly continued:

“But the divorce continues.”

His expression immediately sank. At noon, the department head called me into his office. She closed the door.

"Tri Y, I don't ask much about your family."

“But today the impact is a bit big.”

I bowed my head.

“Sorry, I caused trouble to the company.”

The head of the department sighed softly.

“The higher ups also know about it.”

“There's a very important author meeting this afternoon. With your current state... can you still attend?”

Before I could answer, the office door was pushed open. Diep Lam walked in. She is the longest-serving editor on my team, and has always disliked me.

“Chief, I think it's better to change people.”

The department head frowned.

"What is up?"

Diep Lam looked straight at me.

“Her family's chaos has reached the company's door.”

“If the author knew, what would he think about our department?”

I calmly replied:

“There are no mistakes in my work.”

Diep Lam smiled faintly.

“But what the author looks at is the stability of the team.”

“Now she is divorced, arguing with her mother-in-law, disputing property…”

“What isn't annoying?”

The head of the department was silent. Diep Lam immediately took the opportunity to continue:

“Or let me go.”

"I've talked with Mr. Ly a few times, I'm more suitable than her."

I looked at her.

“You want to help the department…”

“Or do you want to steal the project?”

Diep Lam's face immediately turned cold.

“Hua Tri Y, don't think everyone is that bad.”

I calmly replied:

“So don't drag my personal matters into work.”

The manager tapped lightly on the table.

“Okay, both of you, one less sentence.”

At that moment, the assistant knocked on the door and walked in.

“Chief, Thanh Hoa just called.”

"At this afternoon's meeting, they specifically appointed Hua Tri Y to participate."

Diep Lam was immediately stunned. Even the department head was surprised.

“Indication of Tri Italy?”

The assistant nodded.

"That's right."

"They said if Hua Tri Y did not participate, they would change the schedule."

Diep Lam immediately turned to me.

“Do you know someone in Thanh Hoa?”

I calmly replied: She asked urgently: I raised my eyes.

“My sister.”

The whole office immediately fell silent. Diep Lam's face was extremely ugly. The department head coughed softly.

“Then Tri Y will go this afternoon.”

“Diep Lam, please help.”

Diep Lam gritted his teeth. Afternoon, in the conference room. Three people came from Thanh Hoa's side. The leader on Thanh Hoa's side is operations director Luc Man. As soon as she entered the meeting room, she directly shook my hand.

“Miss Hua, President Hua said today everything should be based on your opinion.”

The smile on the manager's face immediately became more enthusiastic. Diep Lam stood next to him, trying to force a smile.

"Director Luc and Tri Y are just the illustration editors of our group. Many things may still need to be decided by the department head."

Luc Man turned to look at her.

“What we collaborate on is the content plan.”

“Miss Hua is the one who understands best.”

Diep Lam still wants to say something more. I'm directly up language:

“Today we will only discuss projects, not positions.”

“Whoever wants to continue to cooperate should sit down.”

“If you don't want it, change people.”

Diep Lam's face immediately turned pale. The department head quickly said:

“Of course we continue.”

Halfway through the meeting, my phone lit up again. It's a message from Trinh Yen.

“7pm, coffee shop next to the civil affairs department.”

“If you don't come, I will go to my sister's company.”

I finished reading it, put the phone away, and didn't answer. Luc Man noticed my movements.

“Do we need to handle it?”

I shook my head.

"No need."

Diep Lam suddenly smiled and said:

"Tri Y has a lot of family problems these days, Director Luc, don't take it to heart."

Luc Man put down his pen.

"In a work environment, mentioning other people's personal matters is quite impolite behavior."

Diep Lam was immediately confused.

“I just care about her.”

I looked at her.

“I don't need this kind of attention.”

The manager's face also turned cold.

“Diep Lam, go out and arrange your documents.”

Diep Lam stood still and did not move. Luc Man coldly added another sentence:

“If your company's internal personnel affects the cooperation process, our team will consider re-evaluating the team.”

Only now did Diep Lam agree to go out. After the meeting, the department head personally sent Luc Man away. Returning to the office, she looked at me and said:

“Tri Y, Thanh Hoa's project is now in charge of me.”

Diep Lam stood next to the desk, his face extremely unsightly. Phung Giai leaned closer and asked in a low voice:

“Do you feel good?”

I laughed faintly.

“For now.”
