As I made my words clear and started to threaten them and force them to cooperate with me, the scene suddenly fell into a long silence.
They didn't speak or express their opinions, and I wasn't in a hurry to rush them.
Because it is very difficult to make a decision, I am willing to give them some time to think carefully.
We are all adults, and it is a very basic rule to think before you act.
After a few minutes, someone finally sighed and said to me leisurely.
"Mr. Lin, I did make many mistakes in the past as a company veteran. Now I apologize to you."
"Also, you were right before. This company was built by our hard work together. It should not be taken away by others like this."
"No matter how good Director Lin is to us now, he is still a thief after all, and we should not associate with such a person."
At this point, he suddenly raised his head and looked directly into my eyes and said very seriously and firmly.
"So Mr. Lin, I am willing to support you in returning to the company and regaining the company. No matter what you ask me to do, I will try my best to cooperate."
"Of course, I also believe that Mr. Lin, you will fulfill your promise and write off the previous matters once everything is done, right?"
After hearing his words, I smiled and said calmly.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"
Then my eyes fell on the remaining few people.
"Folks, now a role model has taken a stand, and I can promise you that I won't break my word."
"So now, you should be able to tell me your choice, right?"
"My patience is very limited. If my patience is exhausted in a while and you haven't told me the answer yet, then I will refuse by default."
With the first person taking the lead, the rest will become very simple.
As soon as I finished speaking, two more people immediately confessed to me very anxiously.
"Mr. Lin, I support you in taking back the company!"
"Me too. I believe Mr. Lin will never burn bridges. You are not that kind of person!"
Then the remaining people compromised with me one by one. After all, they all saw the information I gave them just now.
As the principal criminals of these things, they naturally have some understanding of the law.
If I really prosecute them based on the evidence and content in the document, their future will be ruined.
No matter how much money you earn, you will have to pay all of it and spend decades in jail.
In this case, compromising with me is their only option and the best option.
Although I know they will definitely worry about me burning bridges, there is no other way for them to go.
In the end, everyone was willing to support me, which was very satisfying and what I expected.
Now I have regained the old people who worked for me, and most of them now have a place in the company.
This is a very huge force and will be a great help for me to take back the company.
But I didn't act immediately. In my opinion, the time was not completely mature yet.
Because threats like Li Sheng have not yet been resolved, I am afraid that I will not have much thought and energy to run the company after I take it back. This will divert some of my energy.
So I asked these people to go back to their jobs and continue working, and I absolutely prohibited them from telling anyone about what happened today.
In particular, he reminded them not to let Lin Luo know, otherwise Lin Luo would probably jump over the wall and fire them all directly.
In this way, it would be much more troublesome for me to take back the company smoothly.
Heeding my instructions, these people who were already in the same boat as me immediately expressed their support for me.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, we will definitely do what you ask for."
"Yes, Mr. Lin, you can leave with confidence. When you come back and you need your brothers, just say hello!"
"Goodbye Mr. Lin, we are all waiting for your return at the company!"
I quickly left the company, and then I took the car directly to the former college student's home.
I remember her name seemed to be Wang Lulu.
When I arrived at Wang Lulu's house, she was not the only one there, but there was also an older man who looked to be in his fifties.
I guess this man should be Wang Lulu’s father.
Seeing my appearance, Wang Lulu was very surprised and happily introduced my identity to her father.
Then said to me.
"Brother Lin, this is my dad. I'm glad to see you again. I thought you had forgotten me since I haven't seen you in the past few days."
After hearing this, I immediately smiled and said.
"Haha, I have said before, Li Sheng is the common enemy of both of us, how could I forget you."
"And your mother's matter is very important. It may very well be an important clue for us to bring down Li Sheng."
"I came to you this time hoping to learn more about the incident between Li Sheng and your mother. I'm sorry that doing so will bring back those bad memories for you."
"But I hope you can be strong. If you want to bring down Li Sheng, you have to endure the pain. Do you understand?"
Wang Lulu nodded very obediently, and then said to me.
"Okay, Lin Qiao. Actually, I've told you everything I know. It just so happens that my dad is at home today, so you can have a chat with him."
"He knows more than I do, so you can get more useful information."
Then Wang Lulu went to get a glass of water for me and her father, and then returned to her room without disturbing our conversation.
During the exchange with Wang Lulu’s father, I learned more details about Li Sheng’s murder case.
This gave me more confidence in bringing down Li Sheng, and he could also be used as evidence to testify in court.
However, I always felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange during the exchange, and I couldn’t tell what it felt like.
I just always felt that the man in front of me was looking at me when he was talking to me. That look made me feel like I was standing naked in front of him.
It was like the father-in-law was examining his son-in-law.
I couldn't help but wonder, could this guy have misunderstood the relationship between me and Wang Lulu and thought she and I were a couple?
However, I didn't take the initiative to explain. After all, the other party didn't obviously show that intention. If I said this, it would make both of them very embarrassed.
Soon I asked for all the details and prepared for the next investigation.
Try to find more clues and fix the evidence so that I can use this matter to prosecute Li Sheng.
