But, I wasn't able to resign, and I didn't even see Lin Zexiu that day, let alone Lin Zefeng. Instead, when I was drinking iced water in the company restaurant, a kindhearted sister stopped me with some advice, telling me to take care even during the "little confinement". I was utterly flabbergasted—I hadn't lost a baby; I never had a baby to begin with. Other than the Virgin Mary, I had never heard of a virgin pregnancy.
In fact, to resign, all I had to do was inform Liu Liu, since she's the HR manager. But she said that since the establishment of my position was quite controversial, it was initially approved with the joint signatures of the Lin Brothers, and now my resignation would also require both of their consents.
I was quite shocked, as I hadn't expected that even my right to leave would be granted by those two brothers. Unless I was willing to forgo my salary. But I couldn't bring myself to give that up; the pay here was incredibly high.
