· Protagonist: Lin Wan, 27, an ordinary employee in the marketing department. Hardworking and capable, but gentle in nature, she is regarded as a "pushover."
· The humiliation:
1. At the celebration banquet, the project she managed is a huge success, but Director Zhang Hao and his well-connected colleague take credit for it.
2. Zhang Hao corners her in a secluded part of the private room, using the unsettled project risk fund to threaten her. He implies she must "spend the night with him" to receive the 200,000 yuan bonus she earned, then gets handsy.
3. She struggles and fights back. Zhang Hao humiliates her: "Who are you trying to fool with that innocent act? Without this company, you're nothing!" His voice draws the other employees over, but no one helps. They only snicker and record her.
4. The next day, Zhang Hao turns the tables and accuses her of "seducing her superior and damaging team unity." He forces her to sign a voluntary resignation agreement and threatens to blacklist her throughout the industry.
· For five years, I was the office's "sticky-note girl," always helping out while someone else got the promotions and raises. At the department's celebration banquet, the director actually tried to make me trade my body for my project bonus. I swallowed my humiliation and signed the resignation agreement, but as I turned to leave, I got a call from a headhunter: "Ms. Lin, you've been hired as a partner at Xingyao Capital, with an annual salary of ten million. Your first assignment is to acquire your current company." I looked at the surveillance footage trembling on my screen and smiled. The real show was just beginning.
