Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Chen Jing instantly shuddered, her throat went dry, and she swallowed slightly before saying to Chen Mo, "No, really?"

Seeing Chen Jing like this, Chen Mo couldn't help but shake his head. Chen Jing had already lost her composure in the face of this crisis. But it was understandable.

After all, Chen Jing was such a responsible person, capable of overwhelming others, including men, yet in the end, she could only sacrifice herself to avoid this disaster. This was something Chen Jing loathed and resisted, and it left her feeling utterly helpless.

So Chen Jing could be said to be trying to find other ways to replace the corrupt officials. For Chen Jing, the fact that the person investigating the corruption is colluding with the company's management is just a matter of bribery.

Even if Chen Jing were to rely solely on himself, no matter how capable he was, the money he had earned over the years would certainly not be comparable to all the money those old foxes had combined.

Therefore, Chen Jing felt that as long as he put out enough money, as long as he put out more money than those old foxes, he might be able to get the person investigating the corruption to stand on his side.

This is the real purpose of finding Chen Mo.

Then Chen Jing realized how naive she was. The next moment, Chen Mo said to Chen Jing, "Manager Chen, what you said is indeed correct, but have you thought about this?"

"If you try to please someone, does that mean they have to keep their promise? I'm afraid that if you try to please them, they'll think you're easy to bully and become even more demanding, forcing you to hand over more money, or even taking your person."

"What will you do with him then?"

"At most, he'll face reprimands from head office and dismissal. That's the worst punishment he can get. There's nothing you can do about it."

"Besides, you said it yourself, they were appointed by the board of directors to investigate corruption. They took such a big risk and agreed to collude with the management of the head office. Obviously, they're not just here for the money, but for you."

"If you want to please someone, I don't think money alone will do much good; you might as well just offer yourself up."

"However, if you are given even more leverage, I think it will be even harder for you to get away with it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jing's face instantly turned pale, because she knew that Chen Mo was right.

Because Chen Jing had also approached the staff member investigating the corruption case and promised to offer enough money to get the other party to side with her.

However, the other party decisively refused, showing no interest in the money at all, but rather indicating that they were only interested in him.

At first, Chen Jing thought it was because she didn't have enough money, but now it seems that, just as Chen Mo said, the other party was taking advantage of having something on her and wanted to take her down directly.

At the same time, they also wanted to get more leverage over Chen Jing while they were taking her down, so that not only Chen Jing, but also the money would belong to the other party.

After all, if they could obtain more dirt on Chen Jing, Chen Jing would have to continue bribing people with money if she wanted to continue working, and might even have to bribe them with her own body.

Don't even think about buying it out in one go; you'll never escape their grasp for the rest of your life.

As Chen Mo said, trying to please others will only lead to being bullied even more.

If it were someone else, Chen Jing might have believed them and kept her promise. But because of those people at head office… Chen Mo didn't even say anything, and she immediately hesitated.

The more Chen Jing thought about it, the paler she became. Her method was indeed feasible, but the failure rate was too high because it involved gambling and investigating the person who had embezzled money to keep their promise.

This is a very low probability event, because Chen Jing still has the initiative in someone else's hands, and whether or not she keeps her promise is up to them.

Moreover, with Chen Jing's looks, how could anyone let her go so easily?

Even if they take the money, the other party may not necessarily keep their promise and release Chen Jing.

Even after taking down Chen Jing, they would use more damaging information about her to threaten her and do even more outrageous things to her.

While this method is indeed feasible, it is extremely risky.

So the next moment, Chen Jinglei looked slightly pale and asked Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, what, what should we do?"

Seeing that Chen Jing finally understood, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh. He said to Chen Jing, "I've already told you, if you want to completely resolve this matter, you have to turn the tables and take the initiative. For these despicable and shameless people, simply trying to please them with money or by offering yourself up is still very risky, and you won't have the initiative in your own hands."

"The only way is to get something on them, make them afraid, and then they won't dare to do anything to you. They'll even have to beg you for money, and you won't have to spend a single penny."

"This is the only solution at the moment."

Hearing Chen Mo's words, Chen Jing immediately gave a bitter smile, and then said to Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, it's not that simple. Those people are all old foxes. Before this incident, they were so wary of me. After this incident, they are even less likely to expose their weaknesses so easily and be caught by me."

"Even my most trusted female apprentice of many years was infiltrated by them, and I didn't even know it, and they only gave me a week."

"Even if I wanted to do it, time might not allow it."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken such a risk."

At this point, Chen Jing couldn't help but clench her fists tightly. She knew that the method Chen Mo mentioned was the best one and the most likely to completely solve her problem.

They have leverage over Chen Jing, so Chen Jing has even more leverage over them. As long as their losses are far more severe than Chen Jing's, they won't dare to do anything to Chen Jing. This is a system of checks and balances.

Chen Jing highly approves of Chen Mo's approach, which is also very common in the workplace.

However, Chen Jing believed that the success rate of this method was far lower than that of the method he had mentioned.

Moreover, the person who was able to take on the role of investigating corruption was not only capable, but also had an extraordinary background.

How easy would it be for Chen Jing to get leverage over him?

They were afraid that their attempt to steal a chicken would backfire and they would lose more than they gained. Moreover, after this incident, Chen Jing's confidence had plummeted, and she had no confidence that he was their opponent.

After all, the management of just these few companies at headquarters were completely manipulated, and now there's another person specifically investigating him, and that person is no pushover.

Although Chen Mo's suggestion was feasible, Chen Jing felt it was even more risky.

Seeing Chen Jing's insecure expression, Chen Mo shook his head again, then said to her, "What if I could do it for you?"
