Chapter 475 The Orphan Girl Who Will No Longer Be Manipulated (1)
Lin Ling and Mu Zhou are good friends from the same orphanage. Because they are about the same age, they are very close.
After receiving Mu Zhou's call, she immediately drove over.
The two cursed at the unlicensed taxi driver in the car, and then called the police to retrieve Mu Zhou's bag.
It was evening, so we decided to have hot pot together.
"Zhouzhou, why did you go to H City all by yourself?"
Since they met, the two have been dealing with a series of events, including calling the police to look for her bag and arguing with a black cab driver. Lin Ling only heard Mu Zhou say that she had returned from H City, but she hadn't had a chance to ask why.
Mu Zhou scalded a piece of tripe and casually explained:
"On a business trip."
"Business trip? You're going on a business trip alone? Besides, why would we let you take an unlicensed taxi on a business trip?"
Lin Ling stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that Lianzhong Group would be so stingy and unprofessional.
Mu Zhou shook his head in confusion:
"I don't know either. This is my first business trip. The manager said the high-speed train time was not suitable, but it's not far anyway, so I can just find a black cab to come back."
Lin Ling was so angry she almost threw her chopsticks down.
"Isn't this ripping you off? The fare for an unlicensed taxi won't be cheap either, it'll be at least 100 yuan, and unlicensed taxis can't issue invoices, so how are you going to get reimbursed? Besides, unlicensed taxis are hardly safe, like in this situation today."
She stared at Mu Zhou and guessed:
"Did your manager do this on purpose? Did you offend him? Or does he just not like you?"
Mu Zhou thought for a moment, then shook his head:
"...No way, maybe he just said it casually. I'll learn my lesson this time."
Mu Zhou naturally understood that the manager did it on purpose, but he didn't want Lin Ling to worry about him.
Since meeting the general manager's wife and daughter half a month ago, the original owner has been constantly criticized at work.
No matter how perfectly she did it, she would be scolded, which turned her from a sunny and cheerful person into someone who was internally destructive.
Furthermore, her well-prepared reports and plans were altered after submission, making a complete mess of her work.
But she couldn't find the person who framed her, and the manager didn't believe her when she explained.
It's common for her to be suddenly sent on a business trip alone like today to handle after-sales issues that aren't her responsibility.
But the original owner was carefree and never thought that she was being targeted on purpose; she only thought that she hadn't done her job well.
A month later, the project for which she was entrusted with an important task was unexpectedly leaked.
She became the prime suspect.
In less than two months, the original owner was fired, and news of her leaking confidential information spread throughout the industry, so no one would hire her again.
In the end, the original owner had no choice but to settle for second best. Despite having a high level of education, she could only work as an employee in some factories or small shops.
After a series of setbacks, the original owner tried to adjust her mindset and prepared to accept these things for the time being.
Anyway, it's all the same no matter how you get through it.
Unexpectedly, she later found herself unable to find even these most basic jobs.
It was as if an invisible net was trapping her, binding her tightly.
Finally, on a friend's advice, she went to teach in a small county in the far north and never returned to Beicheng.
She only learned after her death that someone had deliberately disrupted her life and driven her out of the North City.
The person who shattered her beautiful life turned out to be Meng Xiyuan, the wife of the general manager whom she had met at Lianzhong Group!
The reason she did this was because she suspected the original owner's identity.
It turns out that when Meng Xiyuan married Mu Jin, the son of the chairman of Lianzhong Group, the chairman was single.
Her mother-in-law passed away many years ago.
As the only son, Mu Jin would naturally inherit everything from his father.
So even if he has no real skills and only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun, it doesn't matter, since the Mu family has no other heirs.
Unexpectedly, the chairman, who had always been indifferent to women, suddenly fell in love with Zhang Mo, a senior college student.
Initially, this relationship, which involved a significant age gap, did not attract the attention of Meng Xiyuan and Mu Jin.
They all thought that their father had been single for many years and was just having fun.
Until Zhang Mo became pregnant.
The chairman wanted to give Zhang Mo a formal identity, so he planned to get her a marriage certificate after she graduated.
Now, Meng Xiyuan and Mu Jin panicked.
They feared that if Zhang Mo really gave birth, the huge Lianzhong Group might be given to someone else.
After all, the chairman had always been dissatisfied with Mu Jin, and had repeatedly expressed his wish that he had other children.
Since the two of them owe their current lives entirely to the chairman, their opposition will have no impact.
So the couple discussed it and decided to try a different approach.
On the surface, they approved of the chairman's marriage, but behind his back, they began to frantically try to seduce him with women.
This way, firstly, it would reduce Zhang Mo's standing in the chairman's eyes; secondly, since these women were personally selected by them, it would ensure that they wouldn't get pregnant.
This tactic worked, as the chairman, now middle-aged, had become less resistant to beautiful women.
Moreover, these women are all the same type as Zhang Mo, with a pure yet somewhat willful personality.
At that time, Zhang Mo was already more than seven months pregnant. Under Meng Xiyuan's arrangement, she witnessed the chairman's intimate affair with another woman.
This was a huge shock to Zhang Mo, who hadn't even graduated yet.
Her parents divorced when she was young, and she was neither loved by her father nor her mother. The mature, stable, and tolerant middle-aged man like the chairman was extremely attractive to her.
Even though she truly loved this man, the age difference between her and the chairman still put a lot of psychological pressure on her.
She originally wanted to give up, but the chairman kept persuading her that they were both single, in a normal romantic relationship, and there were no moral issues involved.
He even promised to marry her.
Zhang Mo finally let go of her psychological burden, got together with him, and even became pregnant.
But what she saw before her eyes broke her heart completely.
She thought that perhaps Meng Xiyuan was right; the chairman might just be lying to her about having the child and playing around with her.
Feeling disheartened, Zhang Mo sent a message to the chairman.
I hate you. I will abort the child and never appear in front of you again.
Then he quietly left.
She wanted to have an abortion, but at this stage of her pregnancy, no hospital would agree to perform the procedure.
Ultimately, she found a small clinic without a business license, paid them some money, and had an induced abortion.
But after the induced labor was completed, the doctor told her that the baby was still alive.
Zhang Mo was filled with hatred for the chairman. She originally wanted to jump into the river with her child, but in the end she softened and sent the child to the orphanage. She then jumped into the river to commit suicide.
That's right, the original owner of this body is Zhang Mo's daughter, who is also the chairman's daughter.
Moreover, the original owner looked exactly like Zhang Mo, so Meng Xiyuan had suspicions the moment she saw her.
After that, she hired someone to investigate and secretly did a paternity test to confirm the original owner's identity, and then began to drive the person away.
Only then did the original owner realize that this was the reason that led to her tragic end.
She was unwilling to accept this outcome.
Meng Xiyuan and Mu Jin were most afraid of having children fight over the inheritance, so she decided to defy their wishes.
The original owner's wish was to reclaim the chairman's position and fight for the inheritance.
