Chapter 150: Chapter 150 Jingting, I Misunderstood You
Chen Xuan also felt that discussing the owner of the house was a rather dangerous topic for him, so he hastily changed the subject.
"By the way, you were doing well in Han Corporation, why did you suddenly think of going to work in an entertainment company?"
Chen Xuan would have been better off not bringing up the topic, as it completely ignited the fury in Han Jingting’s heart.
Indeed, I was a well-to-do company president, so why should I go to such a place?
All thanks to you!
The incident with Zheng Qingxue, coupled with yesterday’s events, caused Han Jingting’s emotions to spiral out of control.
"Where I go is none of your business!"
With that, Han Jingting dropped the utensils she was holding and stood up to leave without another word.
Chen Xuan was utterly confused.
He had just asked casually, so why did she get so angry?
The more Chen Xuan thought about it, the stranger it seemed, so he immediately dialed Xue Qin’s number.
"Xue Qin, help me check if there have been any issues recently in Han Corporation, especially with the president, Han Jingting. Find out if something happened to her."
Ten minutes later, Xue Qin called back.
"President Chen, I have found out that a few days ago, the president’s position at Han Corporation changed hands. Now, the person in charge of Han Corporation is Han Chengye!"
"What? Why would they replace Han Jingting?"
"The information I got here says that Miss Han was dismissed for embezzling funds!"
"Embezzling funds?"
Chen Xuan was well aware of Han Jingting’s character, and she would never make such a fundamental mistake.
Then, a thought flashed through his mind, a shocking idea suddenly appeared in Chen Xuan’s head.
"How much did she embezzle?"
"Twenty million!"
Chen Xuan was so shocked that he stood up.
Twenty million, wasn’t that exactly the amount of money Han Bowwen owed to the casino?
Moreover, it also happened recently, which matched up perfectly in terms of timing.
In other words, Han Jingting had moved those twenty million in funds to save herself!
At this moment, Chen Xuan felt like a mix of emotions had been overturned inside him.
He had always thought that it was Han Jingting who cold-heartedly abandoned him to the dangers of those kidnappers, leaving him to fend for himself.
He considered Han Jingting to be a heartless woman.
He even resented her for it, having said he would sign the divorce agreement immediately.
But it was not until now that Chen Xuan finally realized he had misunderstood her!
Han Jingting, in order to save himself, had risked being dismissed from the company and had embezzled the funds!
She was never a heartless woman!
At this moment, over the phone, Xue Qin continued, "Not only was Miss Han removed from her position as president and stripped of all her dividends, she was also asked to repay that twenty million in debt."
"What’s more, the worst part is, Miss Han’s embezzlement has been publicized on the official website of Han Corporation, and now she is practically banished from the entire industry. She must be having a hard time..."
Chen Xuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He hadn’t imagined that Han Jingting’s situation would be so difficult now!
He finally understood that the reason Han Jingting went to work in an entertainment company was probably because she was driven to a dead end and had to find work in such an unreliable place!
Thinking this, Chen Xuan couldn’t help but feel heartache.
All of this was caused by himself!
It was all because of him that Han Jingting was plunged into this embarrassing predicament!
And he was still complaining about her!
"Wife..."
Chen Xuan’s eyes brimmed with tears of emotion and guilt.
A moment later, Chen Xuan finally calmed down.
"Xue Qin, no matter what, we must clear Han Jingting’s name. I want to restore her to her former glory!"
Meanwhile, Han Jingting had just taken a taxi back to Maple Forest Community.
Standing in front of her home, Han Jingting couldn’t help but sigh.
Having failed to find a job and uncertain about where the future was headed, she honestly didn’t know how to face her family anymore.
Taking a deep breath, Han Jingting still opened the door.
As soon as she entered, Ding Lijuan began berating her, "You wretched girl, you dare to come back? Tell me what happened yesterday!"
"Yesterday?" Han Jingting panicked, thinking her mother already knew of her ordeal.
But then, she heard Ding Lijuan continue, "You were actually with that loser, and you even went to a hotel to book a room. Do you want to anger me to death?"
"Hotel? A room?" Han Jingting was utterly confused.
However, Han Jingting quickly realized that these must be lies fabricated by Chen Xuan.
Although it might have been excessive, hiding the truth about what happened at the entertainment company was, in a sense, well-intentioned.
"Mom, you’ve misunderstood, nothing happened between us yesterday!"
"Really?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you."
Ding Lijuan finally relaxed and advised, "Jingting, don’t blame me for not reminding you, since you’re already getting a divorce from that loser, you should stay clean and keep your distance from him. If not, you’ll be frowned upon when you find your next partner!"
Bringing this up made Han Jingting impatient, "Enough already, don’t talk about this anymore!"
Just as Ding Lijuan was gearing up to nag some more, there was a knock on the door.
"It better not be that loser getting cocky. Watch me break his legs!"
Ding Lijuan, holding a broom, went straight to open the door.
But when she saw Han Chengye and others standing outside, she immediately lost her nerve.
She could bully Chen Xuan, who was gentle, but she didn’t dare to mess with someone like Han Chengye.
"Han Chengye, what are you doing here!" Han Jingting’s expression turned icy.
Han Chengye was all smiles, "What else could it be, I’ve come to look at the house again! Rest assured, as long as you don’t pay up and move out, I’ll bring people over every day until you get out of here!"
Han Chengye was clearly gloating in his petty victory.
He had always been overshadowed by Han Jingting, and now that he finally had a chance to kick her while she was down, there was no way he was going to let it slip by.
Seeing Han Jingting being pushed to the brink by him brought him immense satisfaction.
"You..." Han Jingting was indeed infuriated by Han Chengye’s words.
"All right, get inside!"
Han Chengye gestured grandly, treating the place as if it were his own home, signaling the estate agents to barge in.
Ding Lijuan was furious, "What are you doing? This is my home. I dare anyone to barge in recklessly!"
But before she could finish her sentence, Han Chengye pushed her aside.
"Waste of words, out of my way!"
Ding Lijuan stumbled and fell to the floor with a thud.
"Mom, are you okay?"
Han Jingting rushed to help her up, but Ding Lijuan started crying out loud.
"Han Chengye, you bastard, all you do is bully us. You’re not going to die a good death, waaaah..."
The woman again threw a tantrum, but it barely registered with Han Chengye; he saw it as nothing more than a farce.
Just as Han Chengye was about to enter the room with the others, a voice suddenly rose from behind.
"Daring to bully us at our doorstep, do you really think there’s no man in this house!"
