Upon hearing them mention making the payment through the accountant, Lin Kuang’s expression became awkward.
After a cough, Lin Kuang awkwardly put his hand into his pocket.
As he touched the three thousand yuan, Lin Kuang dryly said, "Making the payment through official procedures is too much trouble. I’d rather give you cash."
"Cash? Do you really have that much cash?"
"Exactly!"
After hearing Lin Kuang’s words, they looked at Lin Kuang with skepticism.
They didn’t believe Lin Kuang could produce that much cash.
"Of course I do! The cash she gave me before was given in cash."
While explaining, Lin Kuang took out the three thousand yuan and seriously began counting in front of them.
"What do you mean by this?"
"Exactly!"
Seeing Lin Kuang start counting money in front of them, these people frowned in surprise.
They really couldn’t figure out what Lin Kuang was up to.
Seeing their confusion, Lin Kuang coughed and seriously said, "This three thousand yuan is the breach of contract fee given to me by Xie Wenwen. I don’t want a cent of it, so I’m giving it all to you. Discuss among yourselves on how to divide it."
Silence ensued!
The room fell silent.
Seeing their stunned expressions, Lin Kuang offered no explanation and waited quietly.
After a long while, Lin Kuang heard them speak coldly.
"Three thousand yuan? You’re really generous! Why didn’t you say three hundred yuan!"
"Exactly, wouldn’t thirty yuan be even better?"
"Indeed! That way you can pocket even more."
Hearing such disdainful mockery, Lin Kuang realized they thought he was lying.
With a bitter rub of his nose, Lin Kuang swiftly replied, "I’m telling the truth. I previously only received this three thousand yuan as a breach of contract fee. Not a cent more."
They glanced seriously at the bitter Lin Kuang and responded earnestly.
"Station Director Lin, we’ve known each other for some time now, we’re well aware of your character! So, there’s no need to argue here, just tell us how much compensation you extorted."
"Exactly, straight talk is fine."
"Right!"
Some of them had been shareholders for years, so they knew Lin Kuang very well.
That’s why they didn’t believe even a punctuation mark of what Lin Kuang said.
Old habits die hard!
Lin Kuang was just a scoundrel, a greedy person, so how could he settle for only three thousand yuan.
Even from a stone, he’d find a way to extract oil, let alone a living person.
"Damn it, no one believed me even when I was telling the truth!"
With a frustrated sigh, he spoke again, "I know this sounds absurd, but this is the truth! I really only received these three thousand yuan!"
His expression was particularly earnest...
He thought if he explained again, they might believe him.
However, Lin Kuang was clearly wrong.
Because after hearing his explanation yet again, their expressions turned even worse.
"We’re not interested in listening to your nonsense here. Either tell us how much compensation you really demanded, or we’re terminating the contract."
"Right! Stop trying to fool us."
"Indeed, we’re not idiots."
Lin Kuang felt like crying.
