CHAPTER 314
Just like that, both Yin Lifen and Li Jing looledbat each other before fixing their gazes back on the screen.
It was clear and obvious that her assistant was seriously dull or stupid. Li Jing could not believe she let herself be played like that so easily by the likes of her womanising cousin.
"I do not know whether I should cry out of disappointment or that I should laugh at them being caught," Yin Lifen announced, briefly taking her gaze of the computer screen to look at her friend.
"Both, my friend. I am embarrassed to call her my assistant right now."
"Pff hahhaa…" Yin Lifen could no longer hold it in and just laughed at their situation. "But then this woould mean that she is not guilty. She was just used as a scapegoat."
"Wait and see first and if at the end of it all she is a scapegoat, I would still teach her how not to mix pleasure and work. Meanwhile, now I bet this was where he left in a hurry and I met him."
"Yeah, so let us go over to the CCTV footage," Yin Lifen suggested with Li Jing agreeing and shutting her ipad down.
"Tsk… But first I want to listen to something else."
"What is that?"
"The recorder I put in her pen. I need to hear her conversations and be sure she is not a mole still. Who knows she may not be working for my aunties but for someone else."
"Make sense then. Let us listen. We still have about two to three hours before work would close," Yin Lifen informed her and waited for her to do her thing.
In a few minutes they were already listening to all that needed listening to and now, Yin Lifen could see that Deng Meili was just a snake as Li Jing had perceived her to be.
Unknown to her that Li Jing actually did what she did to her pen, she closely talked to Li Jing's grand auntie right where she could be recorded.
It was as though karma was just waiting for her to fall victim of all her ploys.
"She is not only stupid but a viper. What kind of a human being is this?"
"Is she the only one baffling you or you haven forgotten about the masterminded humans called my aunties that are doing all of these?"
Yin Lifen was utterly speechless. She felt like leaving Li Jing and going to meet her personal assistant to give her the words of insults if her life.
How could one be so vile?
"It is okay though."
"Okay? Just okay is what you want to say?"
"What do you want me to say, Yin Lifen?" Li Jing did not understand her friend. She was beginning to act like she did not know Li Jing at all.
"I want you to do something and not let this sit just like that," Yin Lifen admonished her.
"Of course I would do something. I would visit them back for all their plots. No one wishes me I'll and think they can go scot-free with it. No one. They are not Li Xiu and even Li Xiu a better punishment would await her, all of them."
"Good. I like that. I like that very much, my friend. Do something. Retaliate. Show them not to mess with Li Jing again lest they be burned," Yin Lifen smiled at her.
"I would."
"Good, now what is your first step of action?"
"Simple, I am going to put that call through to her. I need to see how her health is doing while informing her of her failed attempt and warning them."
"You won't be reporting them to the police?"
"No. They would only make Deng Meili the scapegoat and bribe their way through things."
"Then what do you suggest?"
"Two things. Reporting and not reporting. Reporting then asking gramps to use his influence and make them talk, spilling the truth about my mother or make them suffer in prison."
"Not bad, Li Jing but what is the second option that deals with not reporting.?"
"Simple. With that, I can just threaten them, have them at my finger tips using this as my hold against them while threatening to spill the truth to my second grand uncle if they do anything funny. Also I would use this to tie their legs and prevent them from fighting against me for my inheritance and my mother and all those they have wronged."
"Not still bad but why not make do of something else?"
"Like what?" Li Jing. Asked scooting closer to her friend.
"Just think about it dear. Can we make them scape goats to suffer too? Let's say make them go and make Kim Group withdraw their law suit."
"Oh they will. And at the end of the day they would lose while we gain. I also the group it was sold to would also have a law suit if they do not cancel and come clean. Either way it goes, we win."
"That is good. I know of a truth that your grandfather and auntie and grand uncle would be very proud of you."
"Oh and one other thing why I feel I may have some usefulness if I do not report them. I can still make good used of Deng Meili as my double spy."
"What do you mean by that, Li Jing?"
"Easy peasy. While I make them still believe she is working for them, I can threaten her with several years in prison and make her know that if she thinks she can get away with it that my aunties were planning on making her the scapegoat… Either way, she would still go to prison but if she works for me, I can choose not to use it against her unless she proves to be against me."
"Do you think you can trust her to such extent?" Yin Lifen let out a soft sigh while looking at her friend closely as she folded her arms in front of her chest and waited for Li Jing's response.
