Chapter 1107 - Heavy Responsibility
After Jasper Leung finished telling Jin Liwei everything that he witnessed about the Youngs' corruption at Jin Corporation's Singapore branch, he felt like he ran a marathon. He was sweating hard and even panting as if out of breath. This was how much he felt incensed at the Youngs' audacity on behalf of his idol businessman. He glanced at his idol's reaction.
Jin Liwei's expression didn't change much. Although he didn't look cold and indifferent like usual, there were no obvious emotions on his face.
Jasper began to feel unsure. Was it the correct decision to tell everything to CEO Jin Liwei? Maybe he should've waited until he started working for Miss Kitty Jin's White Tigress company before confessing about all the misconducts he witnessed during his short stint at Jin Corporation's Singapore branch. This way, he could build more job security for himself.
As soon as this thought entered his mind, he felt disgusted of himself. He wasn't a martyr but he hated seeing blatant injustice. This was why he couldn't stomach seeing the Youngs' misuse of their power and ended up offending Romeo Young.
"You did well," Jin Liwei finally said.
Relief filled Jasper. This meant that his idol had no plans of denying Jasper's claims. "Sir, I'm sorry for asking this but…did you know about the Youngs' abuse of power?"
"En."
Jasper was shocked. "Then why….?"
Jin Liwei paused and looked like he was considering how much to tell him.
"CEO Jin, you don't really have to explain anything to me—"
"It's fine," Jin Liwei said, leaning back on his seat and steepling his fingers over his chest. "You'll eventually know of these things sooner or later, anyway, whether I tell you or not."
Jasper was confused. What did CEO Jin mean? He stayed silent and waited for his idol to explain.
"For now, I can't touch the Youngs because they have a mysterious group backing them which we've already proven over here to be extremely dangerous. They already murdered four young men. Those four were about the same age as you before their untimely death. They're the ones who assisted Rose Young in her failed attempt to trap me."
Jasper was horrified. Of course, he knew about Rose Young's sinister plot to sexually violate his idol. The story was all over the news for many days now. In the first place, it was the main reason why he stood up against Romeo Young's plan to use the Singapore branch's company resources to twist the truth to gain sympathy for his slut daughter while putting the majority of the blame on the victim, CEO Jin Liwei. But about Rose Young's accomplices, he hadn't heard anything about them on the news. They were murdered?!
"Although they assisted Rose Young in harming me, I don't think they deserve to be murdered," Jin Liwei continued saying.
Jasper nodded, agreeing with his idol's words. Those four young men were probably just paid by Rose Young, that evil woman, to help her plan succeed. Yes, they were criminals for acting as accomplices to a crime but death was too harsh of a punishment for them. He couldn't help but shudder in fear at the thought that there was such a highly dangerous group behind the Youngs. No wonder they dared to abuse their power without any fear.
"S-sir…."
"Romeo Young has a huge pride and ego. He'll probably continue targeting you. If he's in a bad mood, he might ask his family's backers to 'take care' of you."
Jasper blanched. "Sir, what do I do?! I'm just a new graduate who came from a normal family! I don't have the means or power to protect myself. By how you describe the backers of that family filled with immoral animals, they sound like the mafia. Oh no. What if they target my family as well?"
"Don't panic, Titanic!" Kitty Jin interjected. "Jasper Leung is now an employee of Kitty Jin's White Tigress International Virtual Assistant Services! The cute and mighty me won't allow anything bad to happen to my loyal employees! This is what my daddy and my mommy taught Kitty Jin. If any evil poopoo-heads dare to harm my employees, they'll suffer under my mighty paws of justice! Right, Daddy? Meow~"
"En. The Youngs may have backers but you now have me as a backer as well since you're going to be my daughter's official employee soon."
"Yes, that's right, cat fight! Kitty Jin's daddy is super-duper to the highest level awesome and so is my mommy and my uncle and my great-grandpa and the other members of our one big happy family! Jasper Leung, you have to sign the employment contract as soon as I send it to you so that the cute and mighty me and my daddy can send you some protection immediately! Meow~"
Tears formed in Jasper's eyes. "Thank you, CEO Jin! Thank you, Miss Kitty Jin! Thank you so much! I'll owe you for the rest of my life."
"No need, seaweed! The rest of your life is too long. Kitty Jin and our big happy family are not slave drivers like those poopoo-heads from the Youngs! Right, Daddy? Meow~"
Jin Liwei nodded. "Just do your job well and assist my daughter in running her company. She's still very young, so I hope that you can help me and my wife to look after her. She's your actual boss but the company is under my wife's friend's name for legal purposes. I hope that you'll help keep my daughter's existence a secret because I don't want my child targeted by people with evil intentions. The public also doesn't know that I'm the real backer of White Tigress International Virtual Assistant Services. I also want to keep this a secret to prevent others from taking advantage of my daughter's company to get closer to me."
"Yes, sir! I understand, sir! Please rest assured that I won't breathe a word of all these secrets to any other people including my own reflection in the mirror."
"En. You have my thanks."
Uwah! His idol thanked him!
The video call finally ended. Jasper slumped on his seat from the unbelievable experience. His heart was still beating fast. Then he straightened his back, suddenly feeling a heavy responsibility on his shoulders after knowing these many secrets about his idol.
He clenched his fists. "CEO Jin, I'll definitely work hard to make me deserving of your trust!"
