Just a couple days ago, when I discussed with this Huang Yi, he insisted on seeing justice done.
But now, he's suddenly singing a different tune. Could it be he was threatened?
I frowned, my gaze fixed tightly on him.
Yet Huang Yi hung his head low, dodging my look, and righteously said, "Miss Shen, after giving it much thought, I still can't go against my conscience and lie."
"You told me before, if I just followed your instructions and slandered President Xiao for only paying a third of the market price for the demolition compensation, I would get a benefit, but I've decided I don't want this benefit."
He completely flipped the script, implying that it had always been me pestering him, and that he had already signed an agreement with the company and was ready to move.
He told everyone that I specifically sought him out, advising him not to move out of his current place and even instructed him to become a holdout to get more.
