A Zhong reported the matter, but Zhan Bei Jue did not react much.
Firstly, he believed in Lu Jiaying's character and that she wouldn't do anything outrageous.
Secondly, he had seen too many twisted tactics in the back-and-forth of the workplace, so such things were not new to him. If it weren't related to his son, he felt it wouldn't even reach the level he wanted to hear.
Thirdly, Lu Jiaying was an employee under Hu Jiasheng, so it was his responsibility to handle it, not his.
Therefore, he didn't follow up on the progress of the matter all day.
As soon as he got home, Hu Jiasheng called. Knowing roughly why he was calling, Zhan Bei Jue put the call on speakerphone.
After their conversation, Jiang Nan Fang also knew what had happened, and from Hu Jiasheng's tone, it was likely true.
Jing Yu had fallen for Lu Jiaying.
She was both surprised and delighted.
She had only been at the company for less than two months and was already in a relationship, and such a sensational one at that. This boy…
If something happened, he was thick-skinned and had someone to back him up, so it didn't matter. Lu Jiaying must have been under immense psychological pressure, perhaps thinking about how to apologize to them.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? This is too much of a blow to a girl. Don't let her do anything foolish. I'll talk to her."
Jiang Nan Fang tried to call Lu Jiaying, but the call wouldn't go through.
Hu Jiasheng then braced himself and entered Lu Jiaying's office.
As she was packing her things and preparing to leave the office, she saw him enter, and Lu Jiaying's face immediately flushed red.
After blushing, her face quickly turned pale, and the embarrassment in her eyes was self-evident.
Hu Jiasheng didn't say anything else, but gently handed her his phone.
"It's Jing Yu's mommy calling. Your phone isn't going through, please take it."
Lu Jiaying looked at the simple "Nan Fang" on the screen, but her lips felt dry, and her hands trembled.
After preparing herself mentally for several seconds, she took the phone.
Fortunately, as soon as she took it and said "Hello," she heard Jiang Nan Fang's clear laughter.
"Jiaying, darling, my dear, I just found out what happened. Don't be sad, don't be scared. Auntie believes in you and Jing Yu, and will always support you unconditionally."
"I've already spoken to your uncle about this, and he will handle it properly. Trust us, okay?"
To make Lu Jiaying feel comfortable, she immediately changed her address to "your uncle and auntie."
Lu Jiaying looked up at Hu Jiasheng in disbelief and couldn't speak into the receiver.
Jiang Nan Fang continued on the other end.
"I'm sorry that due to the company's management oversight, you, as a young woman, have suffered such great harm. Your uncle will definitely reflect on this and strengthen company management in the future."
"I heard Jing Yu has gone to cooperate with the investigation and evidence collection. We won't let the person who framed you get away with it."
"Are you still at work? Haven't you had dinner yet? We just finished cooking at home. Shall I pick you up? Then we can go pick up Jing Yu together, forget these unpleasant things, and have dinner as a family tonight to talk things over."
"Your uncle and I really like you and enjoy talking to you. Please don't refuse me, okay?"
With her attitude so clear and the offer so accommodating, Lu Jiaying was so touched that she didn't know how to describe her feelings.
It had truly been a day of great ups and downs, great joy and sorrow, but thankfully, the ending was good.
Lu Jiaying couldn't help but blame herself for being petty, timid, and cowardly.
Jiang Nan Fang was so kind and magnanimous; he had actually worried about being stopped by her before.
Although Jiang Nan Fang called herself "Auntie," and she had indeed formed a substantial relationship with Jiang Jing Yu, Lu Jiaying still felt embarrassed to change her address.
"President Jiang…"
"Don't call me President Jiang anymore, and don't say those polite things. We're family, why be so formal?"
Jiang Nan Fang interrupted her, "If you feel awkward about me picking you up, then drive over yourself, and I'll have the driver pick up Jing Yu. In any case, your uncle and auntie just want to have dinner with you tonight, okay?"
Hu Jiasheng also looked at her with encouraging eyes. Feeling accepted by everyone, she held the phone, overcome with emotion and tears.
"Okay…"
