Yes, I do believe in God, and God forbids us from deceiving others.
But that’s not why I choose not to deceive others.
"He has told you, O man, what is good.
And what is Jehovah requiring of you?
Only to exercise justice, to cherish loyalty,
And to walk in modesty with your God!"
Micah 6:8
Deception fills me with disgust...
I'm a person of integrity and decency. I simply wouldn't stoop to dishonesty, regardless of the circumstances.
I didn’t get that value after I became a believer, I believe in God because I found out we share the same value on this.
“See, truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.”
Jesus saw Na·thanʹa·el coming toward him and said about him. And I want to be that kind of person.

"He isn't willing to lie to his clients."
The reason why one of my former boss got angry with me.
However, it's way better to offend my boss, which is temporary; than to offend my conscience, which is permanent.
It's never been a hard choice for me! It's even not a choice exit!
They send fake and inferior products to customers to defraud their money.
They wanted to do business with you and promised you they would never send those products to "Lord Voldemort", and they just did it behind your back, and hoped you would never find out.
That's how I call it:
HUAIWEI
坏·伪
(Evil & hypocritical)
The thought of them existing in the same world as me makes me feel physically ill.
I'm no HUAIWEI type.
And I'll never be one of them.

I've been deceived.
A Lot.
And It Hurts!
But I’ll never do the same thing to others.
I won’t let that happen to you, from me.
"Also, just as you want men to do to you, do the same way to them."
Luck 6:31
It's kind of embarrassing, but I have to admit I've been hurt by deception in the past.
My willingness to trust others, sometimes naively, in a world full of deception, has led to disappointment.
There were times when I went out of my way to help friends in financial need, even using my credit card while I was already in debt. Unfortunately, they often disappeared when it came time to repay me.
There were times when customers pleaded with me to send products first, claiming an urgent need. Unfortunately, they never followed through with payment.
There were times when a wealthy man, with many sheep and cattle, would take the only small lamb I had and never repay me.
These experiences have left me holding the bag, facing significant financial consequences, and causing immense emotional pain.
It's a real struggle, and I'm still fighting tooth and nail to get out of this situation.
Having gone through these darkest times, I've learned a valuable lesson: the importance of trust and integrity. It's been a tough journey, but I'm determined to overcome these challenges, and will never do such things to you.
I often feel like I’m living in a world akin to Gotham City, filled with deceit and injustice. When you try to do the right thing, you’re often met with ridicule and adversity. But I’m committed to staying true to my values, no matter the cost. I’ll continue to choose the righteous path, even if it means facing challenges and trials.
It'll be a tough journey, but I'll always stay true to myself. You can trust me to be loyal.

I Prefer Not To Burden Others.
Even though you may not deserve it, I’ll still look out for your best interests.
"Do not owe anything to anyone except to love one another."
Romas 13:8
I left a company after discovering they were sending defective products to customers.
Unfortunately, I was responsible for a client who owed the company money. Despite numerous attempts, I couldn't recover the funds.
As a result, I took on the financial burden, paying back not only the original cost of the products but also the additional profits and exchange rate gains.
I'm still paying this debt today.
It's been a challenging experience, made even more difficult by my financial situation. Despite this, I prioritise my integrity and will continue to make payments until the debt is cleared.
And you can trust that I will treat you with the same honesty and integrity. Your interests will always be protected.

It's short-sighted to deceive.
A lasting partnership is more valuable than a fleeting transaction.
“It’s rare to find a business partner who’s selfless. If you’re lucky it happens once in a lifetime.”
Michael Eisner, former CEO of The Walt Disney Company
Building a strong business partnership takes time and trust. It can take months, even years, to establish a solid relationship.
It's disheartening to see people jeopardize these relationships for short-term gains.
They foolishly think they can get away with it. How silly!
I believe long-term partnerships offer far greater rewards than one-off deals.
And I'm willing to sacrifice short-term rewards for long-term success.
You can only deceive someone once. Once trust is broken, it's incredibly difficult to repair.
I had a five-year business relationship that ended abruptly when I discovered a betrayal. Despite their attempts to reconcile, I chose to move forward, knowing that integrity is paramount.
I would never do anything to undermine the trust we've built over the years. Our relationship is too valuable to risk for any temporary benefit.
