Chapter 18 Marriage?

"No, it's impossible!" Qin Chuan clenched his fists and stood up in the director's office. "This can't be done by Lin Nan. He didn't have the motivation to delete the data of the financial department!" Qin Chuan argued.

"Please calm down now!" Director Julie looked at him coldly, and said, "I understand your feelings, and I understand that you want to protect your subordinates. But the system clearly recorded that the last visitor was Lin Nan. Now the financial department The key data of the company has been deleted, and they will release the financial report of the listed company in two weeks, and now the VP is in charge of me. If it were me, what would you do?"

Qin Chuan: "I will fight for it!"

The tense atmosphere in the office was at a stalemate. At this time, the door was pushed open. Lin Nan stood at the door in a daze and said, "Director, are you looking for me?"

Julie: "Sit down, please."

Lin Nan saw Qin Chuan and HR in the office.

What kind of battle is this?And at this moment, Qin Chuan was sullen. He had never seen Qin Chuan show such strong emotions in the office.He wondered what happened, and sat down tremblingly.

Julie: "Lin Nan, what were you doing at eight o'clock last night?"

Lin Nan was surprised, thinking that at eight o'clock last night, he was eating sukiyaki at home with Qin Chuan, but is it okay to say that?Will colleagues gossip behind them again?

Lin Nan: "I... should be eating at that time. What's wrong? What happened?"

Julie: "Is there anyone who can testify for you?"

Just as Lin Nan was about to open his mouth, Qin Chuan hurriedly said: "I was with him at the time, and I can testify for him. Also, the matter is not clear now, is it unfair to treat Lin Nan with the tone of interrogating a prisoner?"

Julie obviously didn't believe Qin Chuan's testimony, and asked back: "Oh? You are superior and inferior, are you still together after get off work?"

Qin Chuan shot back: "Yes!"

Julie ignored Qin Chuan, turned her head to look at Lin Nan, and said with a blank expression: "Lin Nan, the thing is like this. In the early hours of this morning, I received a call from the VP of the financial department, and they had a lot of key data deleted Yes, but the financial information for this quarter is about to be disclosed, and the situation is extremely urgent now. Their system shows that you are the last person to log in to the system."

After finishing speaking, she turned her notebook over to show Lin Nan.

Lin Nan saw that it said impressively, the last visitor: Lin Nan.

He felt unbelievable at first, and then felt very angry, because he obviously didn't do this, so he argued: "It's impossible, I went home after work yesterday, and I didn't turn on the computer, and it was impossible to log in to the financial department's system. Besides, I No access to their system either!"

Julie said: "Qin Chuan told me the same. Maybe there is some misunderstanding. From my personal point of view, I would also like to believe that my employees did not do this, but now the evidence is here, we need to give the financial department a Confession."

After saying these official words, Julie stared at Lin Nan.

The office was silent.

HR was present today, and Julie's meaning couldn't be more obvious. Although she said she believed in Lin Nan, she didn't want to guarantee him, nor did she want to argue with the finance department. She just wanted to hand him over.

Just as Qin Chuan was about to speak, Lin Nan grabbed his clothes and pressed him down.

Lin Nan said neither humble nor overbearing: "I didn't do it, I'm innocent! I don't know why my name appears on the financial department system, maybe someone logged into my account and deliberately planted it on me. But if you have already done it decided, I will not refute."

The corner of Julie's mouth curled up, hitting her chest.

After returning the computer and key card, Lin Nan walked out of the office.It is working time now, there is no one on the road, it is very empty, the sun is very dazzling, he feels very tired.

Lin Nan felt very strongly that he was a loser.And this feeling of failure is so familiar.

A year ago, he wrote a thesis, but the credits were completely plagiarized by the Phd supervisor, coupled with the unbearable verbal suppression and rough treatment from the supervisor, he chose to withdraw from the Phd project halfway.On the day after packing up and preparing to leave the laboratory, the instructor appeared and said contemptuously to Lin Nan, you are so fragile and delicate, you will never, ever succeed.

Since he was born, Lin Nan has been burdened with too many expectations from his parents. For the college entrance examination, going abroad, graduating, and working, he gritted his teeth and kept climbing. The tall mountains were waiting for him ahead, urging him not to stop.

During this process, he asked himself again and again, whether these are what he wants?Do these make sense?

These doubts slowly gathered in his heart, suffocating him bit by bit.Finally, these voices, today, when he was most tired, knocked him down.

New blood is still pouring into Silicon Valley, and they compete with each other for positions and packages.Start-up companies ebb and flow, there are always new ideas, and private equity funds do not want to miss the next ride to get rich.Stocks are still fluctuating and rising, Nasdaq is ringing the bell every day, and the myth of creating wealth has set new records time and time again.

People are bustling and people are having fun.

It seems that where you work and how much money you earn have become the labels of Silicon Valley people, and the only criterion for judging how valuable you are.

People are always talking about job interviews, promotions and raises, companies going public, stock prices, buying a house, having children, children's education, children's exams, children's jobs, children's promotions and raises...

And so on and on and on and on and on and on.

There is no end to this rivalry.

They clearly fell into a trap.

They thought they were moving forward, but from the perspective of onlookers, they were just sitting on a noisy merry-go-round, spinning in circles.

Now, having lost this job and without the work visa supported by the big factory, Lin Nan is faced with the situation of having to return to China in addition to financial losses.

But he was tired, he just wanted to close his eyes, he didn't want to go any further, and he didn't want to climb any more.

Qin Chuan rushed downstairs and found Lin Nan immediately.

Seeing Lin Nan's ashes, Qin Chuan was very distressed, grabbed his shoulder, and said, "Nan, I'm sorry, I failed to protect you. This is clearly wronging you! I will investigate the tricks here as soon as possible, and return You are innocent! Also, you don’t have to worry about work. Whether you choose to come back to work or find a new and better job in the future, I will do my best to help you without reservation. If you have a headache right now If not, I have a trick, which is to wrong you."

Lin Nan looked at him blankly and said, "Why do you wrong me?"

Qin Chuan was a little hesitant to say this at this juncture, but he thought that this was the only way to go, so he said: "I was naturalized two years ago, and my spouse can Get a green card and don't have to worry about visas anymore. I know this is not a perfect solution, but it may be the most efficient at the moment." He paused, summoned up his courage, looked into Lin Nan's eyes, and said : "So, Lin Nan, do you want to marry me?"

Lin Nan stayed there, and it took him a long time to react. He squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "You mean, we got married in a fake way? Defrauding the Immigration Bureau?"

Qin Chuan: "Exactly!"
