"Li Zhengye, explain this to me clearly, what exactly is going on?"
Su Anran's eyes widened, and she shouted at Li Zhengye.
"President Su, I, it's not what you think, actually..."
Li Zhengye's forehead was covered in cold sweat, he stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Yang Zhen had already understood what was happening.
It was clear that the company had not failed to pay him compensation.
Instead, Li Zhengye had embezzled the compensation.
Seeing Li Zhengye's evasive demeanor, Su Anran was already impatient.
"Li Zhengye, you don't need to say anything to me. From today onwards, you don't need to come to work anymore."
"As for where that money went, the company's legal department will follow up. Prepare to be investigated!"
Li Zhengye was completely panicked now.
If the legal department got involved, it wouldn't just be losing his job; he might go to jail!
"President Su, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I admit I took the money!"
Li Zhengye finally confessed, weeping and wailing, "President Su, please give me another chance, I will definitely reform."
Su Anran snorted coldly, "You don't need to tell me. Go beg the legal department!"
Seeing Su Anran's business-like attitude, Li Zhengye's heart sank to the bottom.
But then he caught sight of Yang Zhen and his hope reignited.
With a thud, he knelt before Yang Zhen, clinging to his thigh and begging desperately.
"Yang Zhen, no, Senior Brother, you know how hard it was for me to get to where I am today."
"For the sake of our many years of friendship, please help me plead with President Su, I beg you!"
In just a few minutes, Li Zhengye had transformed from arrogant and overbearing to this pathetic, dog-like state.
Yang Zhen said indifferently, "We do have many years of friendship, and we've been through a lot together. Perhaps I really shouldn't have handed you over to the legal department."
Li Zhengye's spirits immediately lifted upon hearing this.
"That's right, Senior Brother. Think about how good our relationship was back then. As long as you help me plead this time, I'll definitely turn over a new leaf. You'll be my good elder brother for life!"
A hint of a sneer flashed in Yang Zhen's eyes, and he said chillingly,
"You misunderstood. What I meant was, handing you over to the legal department is too lenient for you. What I should do is kick you out of here!"
The sixteenth floor, a hundred meters high. Falling from there would likely result in a shattered body.
Li Zhengye's vision went black, and he almost fainted.
"Yang Zhen, you've ruined my future, I'll kill you!"
In despair, Li Zhengye jumped up and lunged at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen didn't even dodge, kicking Li Zhengye flying.
He had known long ago that people like Li Zhengye were inherently despicable.
Even until death, he would not repent!
The security guards who rushed over dragged Li Zhengye out.
Su Anran apologized, "I'm sorry, Benefactor. Due to our work error, we've caused you inconvenience. I apologize on behalf of the company."
Yang Zhen shook his head, "Don't keep calling me Benefactor. My name is Yang Zhen, and it's not your fault. An apology is fine, as long as you give me the compensation."
"Okay, I'll have the finance department transfer it to you right away!"
Afterward, Yang Zhen learned that after he had quietly left, Su Anran had been extremely worried.
Because he had saved the child's life, and Su Anran hadn't even had time to say thank you.
She had used the company's surveillance to find Yang Zhen, which led to the scene just now.
Yang Zhen asked, "Is the child alright?"
Su Anran replied gratefully, "Thanks to Mr. Yang, Xiao Can is fine now. Perhaps he cried himself to sleep from exhaustion, and he's sleeping now."
"Good, that's good."
Yang Zhen nodded.
Just then, his phone rang. It was a text message from the bank, informing him that the compensation had arrived.
However, upon seeing the transfer amount, Yang Zhen frowned slightly.
"President Su, why did you transfer twenty thousand to me? My compensation was only ten thousand. Did the finance department make a mistake?"
Su Anran said with a smile, "It's not a mistake, Mr. Yang. As a token of my gratitude, the other ten thousand is from my personal funds!"
"Alright, then I won't be polite."
Yang Zhen didn't refuse and accepted the money.
It was only natural to charge money for treating illnesses, especially since Yang Zhen was in need of money right now.
At this moment, Yang Zhen's phone rang again. It was Su Anran calling.
"Yang Zhen, hurry to the hospital. The patient's family is asking for medical fees again!"
"Patient's family?"
Yang Zhen was a bit confused at first, then he remembered it must be that unlucky fellow he had hit.
After finding out which hospital it was, Yang Zhen hung up the phone.
"I'm sorry, President Su, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave."
Su Anran overheard Yang Zhen's phone call and said, "You're going to the hospital, right? Coincidentally, I need to take Xiao Can for a comprehensive check-up. I'll take you there."
Yang Zhen thought that this would be convenient, so he agreed.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Yang Zhen parted ways with Su Anran and her son and went to the inpatient department alone.
In the inpatient department, in the corridor.
Lin Xiaoyin was anxiously waiting for Yang Zhen.
Beside her stood a woman with a resemblance to her, her younger sister Lin Xiaolan.
Lin Xiaoyin had asked her sister to accompany her because she didn't have much money, and Yang Zhen was unreliable.
So, she had to ask her sister to cover the medical expenses first.
Lin Xiaolan asked, "Sister, didn't medical fees used to be settled at the end of the month? Why is it half a month early this time?"
"It might be because of Cao Dapeng..."
Lin Xiaoyin was in a bad mood, and her voice was weak.
"Didn't Cao Dapeng treat you well? What's going on?"
Lin Xiaolan didn't know what had happened to Lin Xiaoyin before.
Lin Xiaoyin reluctantly explained everything that had happened.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaolan's eyebrows shot up in anger, and she gritted her teeth.
"This Yang Zhen, why is he causing trouble as soon as he wakes up? Wouldn't it be better if he never woke up and just died in his sleep!"
Lin Xiaoyin was stunned. She couldn't believe that in that situation, her sister was blaming Yang Zhen.
Cao Dapeng, that beast, was trying to rape her!
But after thinking about it, she didn't say much more.
"Forget it, don't scold Yang Zhen anymore. I've decided to divorce him."
Lin Xiaolan strongly approved of this decision.
"It's right to divorce him. You should have been with Cao Dapeng long ago!"
Lin Xiaoyin looked at her sister in disbelief.
"What are you talking about? What does my divorce have to do with Cao Dapeng? Besides, he's already married, don't talk nonsense!"
Lin Xiaolan, however, was indifferent. "What does being married or not matter these days? Having someone who can afford to support you is what's real."
Lin Xiaoyin was also helpless with her sister.
"Alright, stop talking. Yang Zhen is here."
As soon as Yang Zhen arrived, Lin Xiaolan started speaking sarcastically.
"Oh, you actually remembered to come. I thought you were going to push all the responsibility onto my sister."
Yang Zhen felt guilty. "I'm sorry. From now on, I will do my best to bear everything."
Lin Xiaolan sneered.
"Hmph, what's the use of your apologies now? Can your apologies be used as money? A useless person who can't even afford medical fees, where do you get the nerve to say you'll bear everything?"
Yang Zhen stared coldly at Lin Xiaolan. If she weren't his wife's sister, he would have slapped her long ago!
