Chapter 1064: Wavering (2)

Translator: DaoistLUbAbJ

The middle-aged man looked at Lin Jiayi as if he didn’t believe that she was a high-ranking official. “Are you really a high-ranking official of Lin Enterprise?”

Lin Jiayi nodded, and quite a few people around her echoed in agreement.

Only then did the middle-aged man believe her. He took out a contract from a worn-out briefcase that he carried with him and handed it over to Lin Jiayi. “Look, this is in black and white, and there’s even a seal on it…”

Lin Jiayi didn’t respond to his words. Instead, she took the contract and read it carefully.

It was the latest property development project of Lin Enterprise, and in this contract, it was promised that the renovation would be handed over to the middle-aged man’s company.

On the signature line of this contract were three words: Lin Jiayi.

This property development project was managed by her aunt, and she had never interfered in it before. How could she be the one who signed this contract? Furthermore, even though those three words were an imitation of her signature, she could still recognize that it wasn’t her handwriting at all..

Lin Jiayi’s eyebrows knitted tightly together.

There were too many employees around her, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to make a fuss about this matter. Thus, she put away the contract and said to the middle-aged man, “How about this? Why Don’t you follow me upstairs and talk to me in my office?”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, “Sure.”

Lin Jiayi smiled politely at him and gestured for him to follow her into the elevator.

After the middle-aged man followed her into the elevator, Lin Jiayi took out her phone and dialed her assistant’s number, telling her to return to her office first.

Upon reaching the top floor, Lin Jiayi politely invited the middle-aged man into her office and gestured for him to take a seat. She then instructed her assistant to prepare a cup of tea for the middle-aged man, after which, she began explaining the situation, “To be honest, I am Lin Jiayi. However, I didn’t sign this contract because I wasn’t in charge of this project at all. If I’m not mistaken, you must have been scammed by someone… However, don’t be in such a hurry. Can you tell me the details from the beginning to the end? That way, I might be able to provide you with some clues to help you…”

The middle-aged man wasn’t an unreasonable person. Perhaps he was being forced into a corner, which was why he acted so irrationally without regard for his image. Seeing how polite Lin Jiayi was, his tone immediately softened, “It’s like this. About last month, a friend introduced me to a person. He said that that person was a family member of the LIN Corporation’s upper management and that he could help me get a collaboration. Lin Corporation… I would definitely be happy. I’m a small company, so I naturally wouldn’t let such an opportunity slip by… Then, that friend of mine told me that I had to give some benefits to that family member. Honestly speaking, I don’t earn money. My company has just started not too long ago, but I still gritted my teeth and gave that family member five hundred thousand yuan… After that, he also signed a contract with me. This isn’t… look, more than a month has passed. I saw on the news that the project has already started, but we still haven’t received the notice to start it yet. I was in a hurry, so I called that family member, but he didn’t pick up either, so I could only come to Lin Corporation…”

Family member? Since when did the Lin family have such a family member?

If it was five million, she could still believe it. Five hundred thousand… to the members of the Lin family, they probably wouldn’t even bother to do such a thing, right?

Lin Jiayi’s first instinct was that the scammer company had done something to her, so her tone was very calm. “Family member? Do you know much about this family member?”
