Chapter 483: A Phone Call That Made the Other Party Break Down in Tears
CHAPTER 483: CHAPTER 483: A PHONE CALL THAT MADE THE OTHER PARTY BREAK DOWN IN TEARS
The woman hung up on Lin Fan, showing disdain on her face.
"Seriously, getting calls one after another, it’s so annoying. The driver lost his job, what does that have to do with me? I’m not going to help him verify anything, what if I end up having to pay money? Only a fool would care!"
The woman sneered coldly.
To prevent further disturbances, she decided to change her phone number.
Speaking of which, the driver ran a red light that day, but it wasn’t because she asked him to. Her son was critically ill that day, and she was so upset, crying in the car, completely frantic.
Later, her son was saved, and she was busy taking care of him, without any intention to thank the driver, because she felt it was his responsibility. As a customer, she took the driver’s car, and it was the driver’s duty to get her child to the hospital as quickly as possible; otherwise, it would be a dereliction of duty.
The child was successfully delivered to the hospital, which means the driver fulfilled his obligation, so there was no need to say thank you.
Now, surprisingly, the driver bothered her to help verify that it was to save her son he ran the red light. She was certainly not going to agree; to her, the driver was just making her take the blame.
She also noticed that there were a lot of people online cursing her now.
She was even more reluctant to come forward, wishing the incident had never happened, wanting to stay far, far away.
Fortunately, her personal information wasn’t exposed online, and nobody knew who the baby’s family was.
As long as they didn’t know, she could pretend nothing happened; after all, no matter how they cursed online, it didn’t affect her at all.
Thinking about this, the woman even began to feel a bit smug.
Ring ring ring...
Suddenly, the woman’s phone rang.
She frowned and grumbled, "Must be those wretched people calling again. The driver lost his job, what does that have to do with me?"
She picked up the phone and found that it wasn’t Lin Fan calling, but her boss!
The woman quickly answered the call with a flattering smile: "Boss, what do you need?"
"Ah-Hong, how are you doing at home now? Is your child alright?" the boss asked caringly.
The woman replied, "The child is doing well, thank you for your concern, boss. In a couple of days, I’ll be able to return to work."
The boss chuckled, "As long as the child is okay. Your child is still young; you should spend more time taking care of him. How about this, after some consideration, we’ve decided you won’t need to come to work anymore."
The woman was shocked: "Boss, how can this be? If I don’t work, how will I have money? Boss, you can’t fire me; I worked hard to get this job, and I really want to work."
The boss chuckled, "I hired you because I felt sorry for you and your child, but unfortunately, you brought this upon yourself, and there’s nothing I can do about it."
The woman asked curiously, "Boss, what did I do wrong? Is it because I took a few days off? If so, I can come to work now; my mother can look after the child."
The boss said, "Stop playing dumb. Your matter has been trending online; don’t tell me you’re not aware of it yourself."
The woman turned pale with fright and blurted out, "Boss, how do you know about this?"
Her boss actually knew it was her! How was this possible?
The boss said, "Didn’t someone just call you, urging you to testify for the driver so that his punishment can be revoked?"
The woman was shocked that her boss knew even this, and said, "Yes, someone did call me; that person was also in the car that day."
The boss said, "That person is someone you can’t afford to offend, and even I can’t afford to offend them. I wouldn’t dare keep you employed; if you want to keep working here, you must gain their forgiveness!"
Having said that, the boss hung up without waiting for a reply.
The woman was stunned, overwhelmed with surprise.
Just who was Lin Fan?
He actually managed to contact her boss so quickly, causing her to lose her job!
This job was far too important for her; she couldn’t possibly let go of it, and she didn’t want to lose it under any circumstances.
She quickly picked up her phone, soon found the call record with Lin Fan, and called him back.
Inside the Rolls-Royce.
Loli asked curiously, "What are we waiting for?"
Ever since Lin Fan made a call, they were just waiting, and Loli didn’t know what they were waiting for.
Lin Fan said, "Waiting for a call."
He didn’t know many people from Sanxue Town, but it so happened that Li Yuchun, the Director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, visited him personally that day and gave him a business card.
So he called Director Li for a small favor.
Driver Old Wang was fined and lost points because he saved the woman’s child, and he was facing job loss; yet, the woman refused to testify, so he decided to let her experience losing a job herself.
Ring ring ring...
At this moment, Lin Fan’s phone rang.
It was indeed the woman calling.
Lin Fan pressed the speakerphone button.
"Sir, I know I was wrong. Now I’m willing to testify for the driver. I’m begging you; give me a chance, don’t make me lose my job. I can’t lose this job, I have loans to repay. If I lose this job, it’ll be very difficult to find another job with such a high salary, and I won’t be able to repay the money. My child and I will die, I’m begging you, I’ll kneel to you, please show mercy!"
The woman cried bitterly and began to plead.
Upon hearing this, Loli couldn’t help but laugh; there was actually such a thing. This woman actually knows how to cry.
Lin Fan chuckled, "You’ve lost your job, now you’re crying, but when the driver lost his job after saving your son, why didn’t you feel it was unjust?"
The woman said, "Yes, sir, you’re right to scold me. I know it’s my fault; I realize my mistake now."
Lin Fan said, "You’re only saying this because you lost your job, not because you genuinely understood your mistake. But it doesn’t matter; I won’t argue with you about this. You should proactively contact the traffic police and clarify the situation."
The woman hurriedly said, "Thank you, sir. I will contact the traffic police immediately."
The woman indeed proactively contacted the traffic police afterward and expressed her willingness to testify.
With the testimonies of Lin Fan, Loli, and the woman, the traffic police also finally verified that the driver ran the red light in an attempt to save a life. Although running a red light was wrong, this spirit of saving lives was commendable.
Thus, the traffic police issued a public notice stating that the facts had been clarified, and decided to revoke the penalty against Old Wang.
The netizens cheered, all happy for Old Wang.
"Finally, the penalty was revoked!"
"Don’t let good people lose heart!"
"Did that woman finally find her conscience and agree to testify!"
The netizens didn’t know that it was Lin Fan who "persuaded" the woman, causing her to come out and testify.
This matter finally reached a perfect resolution, and for Lin Fan, it was just a simple effort.
Loli was in awe of her idol, bowing deeply in admiration; he truly lived up to the title of her idol and was amazing, settling that selfish woman just with a phone call!
At this time, Zheng Yang called again.
Loli laughed, "He’s surely calling to thank us."
Zheng Yang was indeed calling to thank them: "Old Wang’s penalty was revoked, and he asked me to thank you all for testifying. Also, the woman agreed to testify. If I’m not mistaken, it was thanks to Mr. Lin, wasn’t it?"
Loli said, "Absolutely!"
Zheng Yang was deeply impressed: "Mr. Lin is truly remarkable."
Loli thought, Lin Fan is indeed great, her idol!
"Zheng Yang, if there’s nothing else, let’s hang up; I still have a case to investigate," Loli said.
Zheng Yang quickly said, "Wait, Officer Luo, actually there’s another thing, I just remembered. Back then, Jin City said something to me once."
What?
Lin Fan and Loli perked up, thinking perhaps Zheng Yang had more clues to provide?
