He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

The next morning, Song Zhi received a call from HR. She thought it was to ask her to come for an interview, but instead, she was notified that she would be hired.

Song Zhi stared blankly at the phone that had been hung up, not quite able to react for a moment.

Xiao Wan, who was sleeping next to her, reached out and nudged her: "Zhizhi, what are you daydreaming about?"

"I found a job, and they want me to go to work this afternoon?"

Xiao Wan was somewhat surprised upon hearing this: "You've been looking for a job?"

Song Zhi nodded and responded faintly, then got up to wash up.

After getting herself ready, she checked the time and, seeing that it was still early, packed her things and went to the hospital.

The old lady didn't come back last night; she must be resting at the hospital.

Seeing how busy she was, Xiao Wan wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing and followed her out.

When Song Zhi arrived at Song Jinguo's hospital room, she was surprised to see Zhao Man there.

It's unclear what the two had discussed earlier, but Song Jinguo's expression was not good, and he stammered as he told Zhao Man to get lost.

Seeing this, Song Zhi quickly rushed over to comfort him: "Dad, don't get agitated, don't get agitated."

Zhao Man looked down at Song Jinguo, her eyes icy cold: "Sign the divorce agreement, and I'll leave once you've signed it."

Song Zhi looked at Zhao Man in shock: "What do you mean? You want to divorce Dad?"

Before Zhao Man could speak, Song Jinguo threw a water glass at her, yelling, "Get out!"

Just hear a bang.

The thermos cup smashed at Zhao Man's feet.

Zhao Man screamed in fright and ran away without even letting Song Jinguo sign the document.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the ward became somewhat oppressive.

Song Zhi spoke first: "Dad."

Song Jinguo remained silent.

Song Zhi comforted him, "Dad, the most important thing for you right now is to recover. Don't think too much."

Upon hearing the words "recuperation," Song Jinguo suddenly reached out and pulled back the blanket: "I want to be discharged."

Seeing this, Song Zhi quickly stopped him: "Dad, you can't be discharged from the hospital yet, don't get agitated."

Song Jinguo refused to listen and insisted that Song Zhi arrange for his discharge from the hospital.

Song Zhi looked puzzled. Her father had been perfectly fine on the phone yesterday, so why was he suddenly in such a hurry to be discharged?

The old lady, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up: "It's all because of that woman, Zhao Man."

Song Zhi looked at the old lady: "Grandma, what happened?"

The old lady recounted what had happened.

Zhao Man learned about Song Jiachen's father's hospital room from him, and went straight there to propose a divorce.

Song Jinguo had already planned to divorce Zhao Man, and since she brought it up herself, he didn't say anything.

But Song Jinguo was furious after seeing the contents of the divorce agreement.

She never expected Zhao Man to be so shameless, having swallowed up all his assets over the years without leaving a trace.

When Song Zhi heard this, she was also shocked: "How is that possible?"

The old lady said angrily, "She said she would sell all her assets to pay for your father's medical treatment, which would amount to several million a month."

"Where are there so many?"

“I don’t believe it either, but she showed me the bills, and it really does look like that. Right now, that’s the only house we have. If we get divorced, it will be split in half.”

Song Zhi didn't expect Zhao Man to have made her move so early. However, when she thought about how Zhao Man married Song Jin Guo for this day, she understood one thing: Zhao Man would never sell her assets to treat Song Jin Guo.

She suddenly thought of Fu Lu and said to Song Jinguo, "Dad, I'll call Fu Lu and ask him."

He took out his phone, ready to call Fu Lu, but Song Jinguo stopped him.

"Do not fight."

Song Zhi paused, holding her phone, and looked at her father with confusion: "Why?"

"Listen to me, don't let Fu Lu know."

Song Zhi didn't understand why they had to do this, but in the end she compromised.

After comforting Song Jinguo in the hospital ward and preventing him from being discharged, Song Zhi finally remembered to report to the company.

When she left, it was the old lady who saw her off from the hospital.

"Zhizhi, your dad is keeping it from Xiao Fu for your own good."

Song Zhi was puzzled: "For my own good?"

“You and Xiao Fu are going to get married in the future, and your dad is a man who cares about his reputation.”

When Song Zhi heard what the old lady said, she understood.

She always knew that her father was very concerned about his reputation, so even when they were at their lowest point, she didn't want to be inferior to her future in-laws. The main reason was that she didn't want the Fu family to look down on them.

Before Song Zhi, Fu Lu wasn't like this, and the Fu family wouldn't have looked down on them.

So on her way to the company, Song Zhi called Fu Lu, wanting to see him and talk to him about it.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.

"Hey……"

Song Zhi paused for a moment when she heard the somewhat unfamiliar male voice on the other end of the phone. She took the phone away and looked at it; it was indeed Fu Lu's number.

Song Zhi put the phone back to her ear: "Hello, I'm looking for Lawyer Fu."

"Mr. Fu is in a meeting right now and left his phone in the office. May I ask who you are? I'll write it down and call you back when Mr. Fu is finished."

When Song Zhi heard that Fu Lu was busy, she thought of how tired he looked when he brought her home last night.

She spoke softly, "I'm his girlfriend. I wanted to ask if he's having any problems at work. He seems quite busy lately."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party adopted a businesslike tone: "I'm sorry, this is a company matter. If you want to know, you can talk to President Fu privately."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi unconsciously tightened her grip on her phone.

It seems that there really is a problem with Attorney Fu's work.

Thinking of this, Song Zhi spoke again: "Um, could you please not tell your CEO Fu that I called?"

The other party didn't ask any further questions and readily agreed.

Song Zhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fu Lu is so busy right now, she can't cause him any more trouble because of her own affairs.

When Song Zhi arrived at the company, she thought she would never have any further interaction with Pei Jinnian. However, on her first meeting at work, Pei Jinnian was parachuted in and became her boss.

When Pei Jinnian stood at the front to speak, Song Zhi kept her head down, extremely nervous, afraid that Pei Jinnian would see her.

Fortunately, she was just a junior employee at the company, and her seat was in the last row. When the meeting ended, Pei Jinnian didn't even glance at her, clearly not expecting her to work there.

Song Zhi couldn't help but feel somewhat fortunate. After leaving the meeting room, she went directly to the HR department to submit her resignation.

The HR looked at her with some surprise: "You just finished the onboarding process and signed the contract, and you're already leaving?"

Song Zhi felt a little embarrassed, but the thought of working with Pei Jinnian in the company in the future made her a little flustered.

This madman has an unpredictable temper; who knows what kind of crazy thing he might do?

She nodded: "I'm sorry, my dad is hospitalized and needs someone to take care of him, so I can't stay."

"You've signed a contract, so there's a procedure to follow when you resign. First, write a resignation application for your supervisor, and once they approve it, I'll process it for you."

"Oh, I also need to write a resignation letter."

"Yes, we are a legitimate company. If you want to resign, you should write a resignation letter."

After saying that, he took out a form and placed it on the table.

Song Zhi glanced at the resignation form, took it, and left the office.

Just as she reached the door, she suddenly remembered something, stopped, and turned to the HR manager: "Um, Manager Chen, I'd like to ask, which manager should I submit this resignation form to?"

The HR person didn't even look up and said directly, "President Pei, our company is now under his management. Once you've filled out the form, just go to his office and give it to him."
