CHAPTER 374: CHAPTER 374: IF OTHERS DO NOT OFFEND ME, I DO NOT OFFEND OTHERS

"You... you’re just too much!" The female colleague had never been slapped in public before, and especially in front of other colleagues, her reputation was completely ruined.

Her gaze towards Shen Weiyi was filled with an intense desire to devour her.

"People do not offend me, I do not offend people," Shen Weiyi said coldly, "Please control your hands and mouth in the future. If there is a next time, I will go directly to the police. Opening someone’s stuff without permission, peeking into someone’s privacy, and adding slander—I believe the police will let you know who is really being too much."

The female colleague was furious and resentful. Gritting her teeth, she glared at Shen Weiyi and said, "Don’t just slap false charges on people. Yes, I took your bracelet, but it was just out of curiosity to have a look, and besides, haven’t I already returned it to you? You’re making a mountain out of a molehill. As for slander, I didn’t name names; if you want to take it personally, that’s not my fault."

She didn’t believe Shen Weiyi would really dare call the police. After all, this was within the company. If she brought police over such a trivial matter, affecting the company’s reputation, she wouldn’t be able to stay at Shen Technology, let alone get hired by another company.

But what if she did? This girl had no regard for human sentiment or workplace decorum, and might really go mad and call the police. Then, they might both end up losing their jobs.

She didn’t need to clash with Shen Weiyi, who was as unyielding as rock.

But to back down just like that would be too shameful.

At that moment, Meng Qiao walked over and said, "Weiyi, we’re all colleagues here, and I believe the senior didn’t do it on purpose. The bracelet was also returned to you without a scratch, and calling the police over such a small matter seems too extreme. How about everyone takes a step back and we just let it go?"

"Do you think my approach is too much?" Shen Weiyi looked towards Meng Qiao who had spoken.

Meng Qiao smiled and explained, "That’s not what I mean. I just think we’re all colleagues here at the company and there’s no need to make things too ugly. It’s also not good for the company."

"It’s not a big deal to begin with. She didn’t know how valuable your jade bracelet was, that’s why she opened it to take a look. Luckily, the item isn’t damaged. How about both of you just drop it? How about this, I’ll take everyone out to dinner tonight as a way to put this matter to rest out of respect for me?"

Knowing that continuing to make a scene wouldn’t benefit her, and that any disturbance might alarm Mr. Shen and Secretary Jiang, possibly even costing her job, she glared once more at Shen Weiyi and took the opportunity to back down, "If it weren’t for Meng Qiao’s face, I definitely wouldn’t let this slap go so easily today."

Shen Weiyi then looked at Meng Qiao, who gave her a smile in return.

So many people around, and only she stepped forward to defuse the situation; she wondered if it was to make herself known or to showcase her capabilities.

But Shen Weiyi didn’t want to escalate the matter either. After retrieving her bracelet and giving the other party a lesson, she silently sat back down in her seat.

Seeing this, Meng Qiao seemed relieved and then smilingly said to everyone, "Alright, alright, stop watching. Get back to work!" She really did have a bit of the heiress look about her, which made it no surprise that everyone was mistaken.

Indeed, she did seem more like the heiress to Shen Technology than I did.
