Chen Feng carried the cardboard box and just went downstairs when he received a strange call and hung up immediately.
If it weren't for the fact that someone might actually call him with something wrong, Chen Feng would have wanted to set his cell phone to "reject calls from strangers" just in case.
Generally, Chen Feng decisively refused to answer calls that looked like numbers from other provinces.
Because this kind of number is either a promotional call or a scam call, it is a pure waste of your time and energy to answer it.
However, this time the number from another province called again quickly.
After Chen Feng refused to answer the call again, she called a third time.
Seeing that the other party was so persistent, Chen Feng was not sure who had trouble with him, so he chose to answer the call.
"Hello, are you Chen Feng?" a young woman's voice.
Chen Feng frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"
"I...my name is Peng Xiaotong. Here's the thing."
Although Peng Xiaotong on the other end of the phone had prepared a draft and even rehearsed it several times, he was still very nervous at the beginning.
Fortunately, she came through and told Chen Feng everything about Lai Junliang asking her to give false testimony and trying to falsely accuse him.
Chen Feng was not surprised by this, because when those people asked him to go over to assist in the investigation, they used this crime. This matter was caused by Dong Boyan.
However, Dong Shanming has been recovered safely now, and no one has come to arrest him again. I think Dong Boyan will not cause trouble for him again. Of course this rape case is gone.
However, Peng Xiaotong followed up and said: "Originally, Captain Lai and the others never brought you, but after they asked me to go back the afternoon before yesterday, I thought the matter was over. But someone contacted me again yesterday, They asked me to go over and give a new confession. This time the confession was very detailed, and they took the initiative to give me suggestions on some details. I made up for it. Later, they... also took away my underwear. If I didn't cooperate, they threatened to arrest me and put my cousin in jail. I had no choice but to cooperate. I did what they asked for, but I feel guilty about you all the time, and I’m really sorry.”
Dong Shanming had been found the night before, but the case of falsely accusing him of rape had not been dropped and was still being further improved yesterday. This immediately made Chen Feng a little angry.
If Dong Boyan instigated this matter, then he would be repaying kindness with hatred. If not him, then who? Others should not have such motivation and ability.
Although Chen Feng was a little angry, he would not get angry at the woman who took the initiative to inform him. He just asked: "Then why do you have the courage to inform me now? You are not afraid that the matter will be exposed. Those Will people be harmful to you and your cousin? "
Peng Xiaotong originally planned to conceal the fact that the case had been withdrawn. In this case, it would appear that the value of her whistleblower this time was greater.
But she suddenly thought that Chen Feng was a very powerful person. Those people tried to harm him again and again but failed. After a little inquiry afterwards, she would be able to find out the whole story and even the reason for the withdrawal. Chen Feng was the man behind the case.
So, Peng Xiaotong immediately changed his words: "Originally, they helped me prepare a confession and complete the chain of evidence. They should have even planned to send people to arrest you. But not long after, they suddenly called me over again, pretending to be They pretended that I was making a false accusation and asked me to withdraw my confession. They also asked me to sign a confidentiality agreement and promised to keep it to myself. This false accusation against you will be kept secret, otherwise I will pay a large sum of money. Therefore, I hesitated before calling you, but in the end I still had uneasy conscience and made this call to you. I’ll tell you something.”
After hearing her explanation, Chen Feng felt relieved. Although he acts upright and stands upright and is not afraid of false accusations, he certainly does not want to be falsely accused. It would be best if the case were eventually withdrawn.
"The confidentiality agreement they forced you to sign has no legal effect. Therefore, even if you leak the secret, you don't have to compensate. You can rest assured about this."
Chen Feng first takes a moment After appeasing him, he asked again: "How did you know my mobile phone number? It's him Did they give it to you? ”
“Yes, when the team leader called me over, he gave me a piece of personal information about you, including your appearance, home address, and ID number. , mobile phone number, license plate number, etc., he asked me to remember them all, so I wrote them all down.”
Chen Feng secretly gritted his teeth when he heard this. Dong Boyan had really gone to great lengths to deal with him.
However, at that time, after all, their son was missing and his life and death were unknown, so the suspicion on him was considered to be justified.
Just understanding, Chen Feng was still quite unhappy facing Dong Boyan.
"Thank you for telling me this. If you need any help from me, just ask."
Chen Feng said with a grateful look.
In fact, the other party did take a certain risk by informing him this time. This is a favor, Chen Feng has to accept it.
"No, I just have an uneasy conscience. After all, I know that you and I don't even know each other and have never met, but they forced me to falsely accuse you..."
Peng Xiaotong just said this, He winked at his cousin who had been listening beside him.
The cousin immediately said loudly into the mobile phone microphone: "Why don't you need help? We really need help. Boss Chen, I am cousin Tongtong. She needs a stable and high-income job. She is now a small supermarket employee The monthly salary of a salesperson is just over three thousand, which is too little..."
"Cousin, stop talking," Peng Xiaotong said to stop her.
My cousin retorted loudly: "Why can't you tell me? He is a big boss, and you are risking your life this time to tip him off. It is such a big favor to ask him to find you a good job, isn't it? Is this normal? Boss Chen, my cousin is too honest and she is too embarrassed to repay her, but I am her cousin. You must speak for her. You are the big boss. It is just a piece of cake for you to find a better job for her. It is not a difficult task, don’t you think?”
Chen Feng is not a fool, he has already hidden it. He guessed the real reason why the other party tipped him off, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party.
After all, he and the other party did not know each other in the first place, and it was normal for him to take the initiative to inform him and then ask for benefits if he was not related to him.
So, Chen Feng asked calmly: "What is your cousin's education level?"
My cousin immediately said: "In high school, her academic performance was very good, and she is famous in our hometown. A talented girl, if her family was not too poor and her mother was seriously ill, she would definitely be able to go to college.”
Peng Xiaotong immediately added: "I only went to the second year of high school, and I didn't go to the third year of high school. I didn't get my high school diploma."
"You idiot!" The cousin cursed lightly and followed. He hurriedly explained, "Her academic performance in high school was very good, and she was among the best in her grade. The teachers all said that she had a great chance of being admitted to a good university, but her mother had a serious illness in her senior year of high school. She was ill and her family had no money, so she had no choice but to drop out of school. Then she came to work from her hometown to earn medical expenses for her mother and living expenses for her two sisters and two brothers at home."
"Okay. Cousin, stop talking." Peng Xiaotong really wanted to stop her cousin from continuing to say that going too far is not enough, and there must be a limit to being miserable. You can't continue to be miserable, otherwise it will arouse the resentment of others.
Her current goal is that Chen Feng can help her find a good job with high salary, preferably in his company, so that she will have the opportunity to further contact Chen Feng, the big boss, and slowly win his appreciation. Even as my cousin said, there are opportunities to be a star.
Chen Feng didn’t want to continue hearing about their misfortunes, so he asked: “What are your cousin’s specialties?”
"Specialties?" The cousin suddenly felt stuck. She really couldn't tell what Peng Xiaotong's specialties were. She could only look at Peng Xiaotong and indicate with her eyes.
So, Peng Xiaotong took the call again and introduced himself: "After I came to Xiuzhou to work, I taught myself office automation. I am fairly proficient in computer operation and my typing speed is okay. In addition, I also I have been learning English by myself, but I can’t communicate in ordinary English. There is a big problem. Also, I have been a hard-working person since I was a child. I have helped my parents with my younger brothers and sisters, and I am good at doing laundry, cooking and housework."
Chen Feng listened to her. This introduction was a bit speechless. The so-called specialties she mentioned were too ordinary.
However, after all, he owed the other party a favor, and if what the other cousin said was true, then Peng Xiaotong’s birth experience was indeed pitiful and worthy of sympathy. The most important thing is that it is not difficult for Chen Feng to arrange a job for her. In fact, after listening to her self-introduction, Chen Feng suddenly felt that it would be quite good to have her come to his house as a nanny.
But after all, they didn't know each other yet. Of course, it was impossible for Chen Feng to completely trust her and let her come directly to the house to be a nanny.
So, Chen Feng asked: "Where are you from?"
Peng Xiaotong reported his hometown fluently: "xx village, xx county, xx province, xx state."
As soon as Chen Feng heard the name of this place, he knew that it was a real poor valley. If not all the women there were hard-working, it was at least nine out of ten. Because the place was so poor, each family had many children, and the mentality of favoring boys over girls was serious, girls were destined to endure hardship as soon as they were born.
How could an eldest daughter like Peng Xiaotong, with four younger brothers and sisters, be so relaxed?
It is very rare for her parents to allow her, the eldest daughter, to study until she is a sophomore in high school. Because in such a poor place, not only girls are allowed to go to high school, but only a few are able to go to junior high school. This also indirectly shows that her academic performance is indeed very good, otherwise her parents would not be so willing to "spend money".
Of course, this all depends on the other party not lying.
If the other party did not lie, then this Peng Xiaotong was indeed hard-working and not just a talker.
"Well, let's go to work in my company first, then go to the logistics department. If you go over there at that time, the person in charge will arrange it. As for the monthly salary, it shouldn't be It will be less than 5,000. If you do a good job and there are performance bonuses, your monthly income should not be low. Yu six thousand, or even more. If you are willing, you can report there tomorrow. You should know the address of my company, right?"
Peng Xiaotong looked excited and replied quickly: "I know. . On the 4th floor of Guomao Building, Fengmang Film and Television Company”
"Well, this is the company. I will say hello to people. You can just go and report tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you boss, thank you very much."
Peng Xiaotong reached I am very excited and grateful.
She had carefully checked the Fengmang Film and Television Company online yesterday. Although it had not been established for a long time and was not large in scale, it had already produced several hit dramas, with profits of hundreds of millions and a market value of three billion.
Such a company is undoubtedly a very high-end and big company for Peng Xiaotong, a girl from a poor rural area who has not graduated from high school.
Being able to work in such a company would make her smile in her dreams.
Besides, this is still her first step. She also wants to try out the possibility of becoming a star in the future.
Anyway, she wants to climb up step by step and get rid of poverty completely. She didn't want to be like her mother, who died early in her forties because she had no money for medical treatment and was poor.
Chen Feng didn't know her ambition at this time, so he just said in a calm tone: "You deserve this, if you didn't lie to me."
Peng Xiaotong was shocked when he heard this. Jump and immediately promised: "I didn't lie to you, I swear."
"Well, I believe you."
After Chen Feng said this, he suddenly asked: "What is my license plate number."
"Show A56856."
< br>Chen Feng praised: "You have a good memory."
Peng Xiaotong said modestly: "Your license plate number is easy to remember. And the place where you live now is also easy to remember."
"Oh, the information they prepared for you is indeed detailed. You didn't remember my ID number, did you?"
"...I did. I have a good memory since I was a child and am very sensitive to numbers. Identity The ID numbers are regular and can be remembered in one go."
"Then memorize them," Chen Feng said a bit unconvinced.
Peng Xiaotong was also unambiguous and recited his ID number in one breath. That's right.
Chen Feng finally believed that her memory was indeed good, at least she had prepared in advance.
After this confirmation, the probability that the other party will lie is very low. But to be on the safe side, after she officially joins his company, he will also ask the human resources department to conduct a background check on her.
"Okay, you did remember it. Your memory is so good, you should continue to exercise and maintain it. By the way, how old are you this year?"
"21 years old."
< br>"At your age, you can definitely continue your studies. If you still want to go to college, I am qualified. Help you."
Peng Xiaotong was silent for a while, and then said: "Thank you, no need. Even if I can't go to college, I will continue to study hard. Take the self-study exam and strive to obtain a bachelor’s degree within four years.”
"Very good, you are ambitious. I support you."
Speaking of this, Peng Xiaotong suddenly said with a sad tone: "Boss, can I go home for the funeral first, and then report to the company. My mother's first two God passed away.”
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed: "Of course, you can go home for the funeral first. My condolences."
"Thank you, boss."
Peng Xiaotong thought of his miserable old man Mom, my voice couldn't help but become choked.
Seeing this, Chen Feng consoled him smoothly: "Don't be too sad. People can't be resurrected. If your mother knows that you have found a good job now and will continue to work hard to get a bachelor's degree in the future, she will be very pleased. "
"Thank you...I'm sorry..."
As he said that, Peng Xiaotong couldn't help crying.
Although Chen Feng was a little speechless, he could understand.
After a while, Peng Xiaotong controlled his emotions, apologized and thanked Chen Feng again, and then took the initiative to end the call. (End of chapter)
