Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Lin Chuyi, did you steal this? Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Lin Chuyi, did you steal this? No matter what they said, the reception simply wouldn’t let them in. When they tried to force their way through, they were promptly pulled out by the towering security guard at the door.
The glass doors closed, reflecting the disgraced and embarrassed figures of the mother and son.
Hen Peizhu was so angry her nose was crooked. Just monts before, she had been boasting to her son about how powerful and influential she was; now, they had been thrown out, and her face felt swollen from the blow to her pride.
Just as she was about to curse soone out, she heard her son suddenly say, “Mom, look, isn’t that Lin Chuyi? What is she doing here?”
Hen Peizhu focused her gaze and, indeed, saw Lin Chuyi getting out of a taxi, walking towards them while taking an ID badge out of her bag and hanging it on her chest.
As she approached, Hen Peizhu recognized it at a glance—it was a Jungle Pharmaceutical employee pass; the sa kind of pass worn by the reception security!
Lin Chuyi also noticed them but pretended to see nothing. She was about to enter when Qi Yunfan reached out to stop her.
He was both surprised and delighted, “Chuyi, why are you here? Do you have a Jungle Pharmaceutical pass?”
“Step aside.”
“Chuyi, can’t you take us inside? We’re here to discuss a partnership with Jungle.”
“I cannot, step aside.”
While her son was talking, Hen Peizhu stepped forward and grabbed Lin Chuyi’s ID, yanking it down fiercely.
She glanced at the ID badge and scread, “Ouch, Lin Chuyi, where did you steal this badge from? This isn’t even your na on it, Su Shan? Did you steal Su Shan’s? Theft is illegal, you know. Looks like the police will be taking you away again, huh?”
“If Mrs. Qi knows the law so well, then she should be aware that snatching things is also illegal. Do you want to be taken away by the police as well?”
“How can it be considered snatching when I’m taking sothing you’ve stolen? There’s no need to be polite to a thief like you!”
“Give back my pass.”
“It’s not even yours, why should I return it to you? Son, do you see this? This is what poor people’s children are like, as corrupt as they co—they steal and snatch what isn’t theirs. Girls from such families should not be accepted!”
Qi Yunfan looked at Lin Chuyi with a complex expression, “Why have you started stealing things? Don’t do this anymore; it’s really embarrassing.”
Hen Peizhu, holding the pass, showed a hint of triumph, “Let’s go, son. We have a pass now. Let’s see who dares to stop us this ti!” With that, she walked back into the lobby with her head held high.
Qi Yunfan, too, followed her into the lobby.
Lin Chuyi stood outside the door, calmly watching the two of them advance to the reception, and then as expected, they were stopped—the pass was confiscated and the security guards ushered them out once more.
The whole process took less than a minute, so quick that one might doubt whether they even went inside.
As Hen Peizhu was chased out again, her face darkened as if a storm were about to strike. She looked up to see Lin Chuyi wearing an expression of soone enjoying a show, and in a fury, she yelled, “Shaless thing, it’s all your fault! If you hadn’t stolen soone else’s pass, we wouldn’t be in this humiliating situation!”
Lin Chuyi looked at her indifferently, “If you hadn’t shalessly snatched my pass and insisted on going in to embarrass yourself, how would it be my fault?”
“How dare you talk back to ?”
Hen Peizhu grew even angrier, “It seems that the respect and humility you showed before were all an act! An uneducated thing, a fake of the lowest order!”
“You don’t deserve to be treated with respect,” Lin Chuyi said coldly, then turned and stepped into the lobby.
The reception had already seen her standing outside and had also witnessed the two people snatching her pass. After they entered, they even told the reception that the pass was stolen by Lin Chuyi!
Were these two idiots? They kept saying they were there to discuss a partnership with the boss, yet when the boss was right in front of them, they failed to recognize her!
As soon as Lin Chuyi entered, the receptionist hurried over, respectfully handed her the pass back, and then pressed the elevator button for her.
Hen Peizhu and Qi Yunfan, standing outside, watched this scene as if they had been struck by lightning, shocked into stillness.
Hen Peizhu couldn’t believe it, “How did she get in? How did she manage that? Why her?!”
Qi Yunfan in disbelief, “Why was the reception so rude to us but so nice to her? Why did they return the pass to her? Wasn’t it stolen by her?”
