After Rejecting My Leave, the Executive’s World Crumbled

After Rejecting My Leave, the Executive’s World Crumbled Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, a nobody in the office, asked the “Iron-Faced Executive” Zhou Mingyuan for personal leave to cover her terminally ill mother’s surgery fees—only to be sneered at and rejected: “Personal matters don’t delay work—why should the company care about your mom’s treatment?” But that night, a fire destroyed Zhou’s embezzlement evidence hidden in his safe. The only person who’d seen the evidence? Lin, who’d glimpsed a corner of the document when handing in her leave request that morning. When Zhou rushed to the hospital, begging her to testify, Lin pulled out a video of his cruel rejection: “Mr. Zhou, now it’s my turn to negotiate—I want my mom’s surgery funds, and your public apology.”
