Xinyan didn’t think that complaining was anything disgraceful. In her past life, she had to rely on herself for everything. In this life, she just wanted to enjoy being pampered.
Han Jingchen’s face turned terrifyingly dark after listening to Xinyan.
Previously, he had already warned Zhou Dongping to keep an eye on his daughter. He didn’t expect that, even after making things so clear, Zhou Jingzhe would still dare to play tricks behind their backs. Truly, she had no sense of limits.
After hanging up the call, he immediately made another call, gave some instructions, and then hung up.
Having painstakingly found his daughter again, he would never allow her to be bullied. This time it was one thing, next time another, but there wouldn’t be a third time. Since Zhou Dongping wouldn’t take action, he had no reason to hold back.
Gu Wanqing saw her husband hang up the phone, "You tell me, what kind of people have you gotten involved with?"
Han Jingchen, seeing his wife was angry, held her in his arms, "I didn’t provoke them; they are the ones with ill intentions and conceit."
Gu Wanqing said unhappily, "Yanyan is so innocent. This time, we really can’t let it go. They’re incorrigible, so detestable."
Han Jingchen rested his chin on Gu Wanqing’s shoulder, "Yes, since they’re ungrateful, I have nothing to worry about."
The next day, when Zhou Jingzhe went to work, she received some shocking news that was hard to accept—she was transferred to a branch factory.
And that branch factory was thousands of miles away.
She was immediately anxious and went to the leader’s office, "Section Chief, can someone else go to the branch instead of me?"
The person busy at the desk gestured to the chair beside, "Sit down first."
After finishing up the task at hand, he looked up, "Xiao Zhou, transferring you is a decision made after careful consideration by the leaders. Most of those older than you have families, and those younger lack experience, but you’re the only one in our factory who has attended systematic training. The factory leaders have high expectations for you."
After hearing this, even if Zhou Jingzhe wanted to stay, she knew it was impossible.
She came out of the leader’s office dispirited, wishing to shout out loud, but seeing the people coming and going in the factory, she suppressed the impulse in her heart.
When the Zhou Family heard about this, they were all in disbelief.
Zhou Dongping looked at his daughter, "You went through training, how could the factory transfer you to a branch factory? Did you offend someone at the factory?"
As soon as Zhou Dongping said this, the whole family turned to Zhou Jingzhe.
Zhou Jingzhe thought carefully, then shook her head, "No, why would I offend people for no reason?"
When it came to offending people, she suddenly thought of something, but upon reflection, it didn’t seem possible. She hadn’t personally gotten involved, and it was such a secret matter that no one could have known.
But what they didn’t expect was that in the following days, Mrs. Zhou, Cai Xiaoqin, also had her work affected, making the Zhou Family realize that something must be wrong.
Under questioning, Zhou Jingzhe, afraid of implicating her father’s job further, finally confessed what she had done before.
But once she finished speaking, Zhou Dongping, as her father, immediately slapped her, "Do you want to ruin this family?"
Cai Xiaoqin was also furious, "What did I tell you before, and how did you promise the family? But look at what you’ve done. It’s truly sinful."
Zhou Guyu said, "You aim too high without considering if you have the fortune for it. You’re really shameless. Did Uncle Han’s young lady provoke you, for you to want to harm her?
If it were me, I’d also retaliate against you. Not only are you suffering the consequences of your actions, but you’re also dragging the family down with you. I guess if Uncle Han wasn’t considering old ties, Dad’s job might have been affected too. Just go ahead and cause trouble until the family is broken up, then you’ll be satisfied."
Zhou Jingzhe couldn’t stand her sister’s sarcasm the most, "Shut up."
Zhou Dongping already thought his second daughter’s words made sense. Seeing that his eldest daughter still didn’t realize the severity of the situation, he slapped her again, truly furious, causing Zhou Jingzhe’s lip to bleed.
Zhou Jingzhe let out a sharp scream, "Ah!"
Suddenly, several voices echoed in the room, "Shut up."
