Chen XiaoHui let out a heavy sigh, her face filled with disappointment. "It's not that I'm generous, it's that I can't get it. You saw it just now, they won't give it to me."
"You can sue them," Li Man suggested.
"Forget it, I don't want to get involved in these troubles. Let everything pass. Wang Jun Feng deserved what he got, and I consider my revenge complete. All the past grievances are water under the bridge."
...
After resting at home for two days, Li Man returned to work. Actually, her injuries weren't severe. The knife she stabbed herself with wasn't deep, and her wounds had already healed. She was just keeping them to herself because the case hadn't been judged yet.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped into the company, her colleagues cast strange glances at her and whispered among themselves:
"It's her. Have you seen the news? She killed someone."
"I saw it. It's horrifying."
"I heard she stabbed him eighteen times. So brutal."
"She must have had a grudge against that man. Why else would she stab him so many times?"
"Do you think he did something to her, which is why she retaliated so harshly?"
"Definitely. Under normal circumstances, no one would resort to such violence."
"I heard the man was the husband of her friend."
"Oh my, did he not even spare his wife's friends?"
"I heard he even had intentions towards his fourteen-year-old stepdaughter."
"Oh my god! Who told you that? Is it true or false?"
Li Man walked and listened, and she heard them even mention An Xin. Unable to bear it any longer, Li Man shouted, "Enough! You can eat freely, but you can't speak recklessly. How can you tarnish the reputation of an innocent girl? Don't you know that rumors can destroy lives? By doing this, you're no different from murderers."
While saying these words, Li Man kept her gaze fixed on the female colleague who mentioned An Xin.
The female colleague couldn't maintain her composure and retorted, "You're the murderer here. What did I say? I didn't lie. It's the truth."
One of the timid female colleagues quickly pulled on the speaking colleague's clothes and said, "Xiao Na, stop it. She has killed someone before. Don't provoke her. She might use a knife on you."
Li Man was infuriated by these two women. She retorted, "Am I a lunatic? Do I take out a knife and attack people whenever I get angry? And you too."
She pointed at Xiao Na and said, "Did you see? Were you present at the scene? Are you speaking the truth? And who told you all this?"
Xiao Na defiantly said, "I wasn't present at the scene, but it was reported in the news. If you don't believe it, go and see the news for yourself. Why argue here?"
Li Man hadn't seen the news and didn't know what it said. She had nothing to refute, so she turned around and left. She couldn't stay in the company any longer.
Just as she stepped out of the door, Li Man bumped into a solid wall and her nose was hit hard, causing her face to wrinkle in pain.
"Why are you so careless?" a slightly reproachful and helpless voice came from above.
Li Man covered her nose and looked up, only to see a sharply defined, handsome face. "Mr. Huo, it's you."
"You're not going to work? Where are you going?" Huo Jian Sheng asked with a stern face.
"You're here at the right time. I'm going to resign. I've had enough!" Li Man said angrily.
Huo Jian Sheng furrowed his brows involuntarily. "What happened? Why don't you want to work anymore?"
