Chapter 109: I know
"How can a bid be 80 percent similar to Wuzhou Group?"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"Could it be that the information has been leaked?"
"It should be, if not, it can't be! No company can have such a high degree of similarity to our solution! β
"Who could have leaked that?"
"Who knows!"
"It's annoying. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]οΌ . . Will the above blame us for firing us together? β
"Ahh Bad luck, isn't it? I didn't leak a secret! β
"I don't either! It's still trivial to be fired, but will it be investigated? β
"I don't want to be interrogated by the police!"
The results obtained from Chairman Wang shocked everyone, and at the same time, it was undoubtedly like a bomb. There was a series of ripple effects. For a time, all the members of the bidding team were panicked, fearing that they would be suspected and become the target of public criticism.
Being asked to resign may be a kind of end.
The other end is even worse, that is, being investigated by the police.
The impact of this incident is very serious, and there are spies within the company. This is absolutely intolerable.
The group rushed back to the company with an uneasy mood, and Qin Shijin, who had already received the news. I am waiting in the conference hall of the Deputy General Office.
Another storm awaited them.
In the huge conference hall, Qin Shijin sat in front.
Xiao Mobai sat down beside him and said in a deep voice, "The incident happened suddenly, and I blame me for not doing a good job of confidentiality." β
It was supposed to be a great time, but it failed because of the final key, wasting time in vain, not to mention, and causing turmoil.
"Come in one by one." Qin Shijin said coldly.
Immediately, the members of the group entered separately and were listed as suspicious subjects for customary questioning.
"Mr. Jin, Manager Xiao, it's really not me. I only have one set of passwords, and I am responsible for the early data, I have not been exposed to the middle and late stages, and I don't know the people of Wuzhou Group, how can I leak the information, I haven't read all the copywriting at all......"
After some inquiry, almost everyone's words and deeds are almost the same.
They carry out the progress of the completion of the tender separately, each person is only responsible for their own relevant part, and the password they hold is only a group, and they cannot collude collectively with each other, Wuzhou can buy one person, but it is impossible to buy all of them, such a thing is almost impossible.
And all the passwords are in the hands of one person.
The final bidding is also the responsibility of one person.
All of this is in the end. Only one person is the most suspicious.
And this person is none other than Lu Zhanyan.
Lu Zhanyan, who had been waiting outside and was not called by name, was finally named, "Assistant Lu, you come in." β
The door was slightly open, but Lu Zhanyan had a strong premonition of what he would face. She took a deep breath and resolutely stepped inside.
The atmosphere in the conference hall was cold, and the oppression was almost suffocating.
Lu Zhanyan walked in, faced the two of them, and directly faced Qin Shijin.
"Mr. Jin, Manager Xiao." She spoke softly.
Qin Shijin's eyes shone brightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Assistant Lu, you are responsible for following up on this project." β
"Yes."
"You have all the passwords."
"Yes."
"You are responsible for the final bid."
"Yes."
"There is no other person besides you who will have such a complete profile."
ββ¦β¦ Be. β
"What do you want to explain?" His words were so simple that she couldn't answer, as if he had already convicted her.
Lu Zhanyan didn't know how to explain it, thinking that he was calm and calm enough, but found that he couldn't. She was still flustered, and her mind went blank. Under his gaze, she frowned and said, "I didn't leak the information, I didn't do it!" β
It's too weak, but that's all she can say.
No amount of explanation at this point is in vain.
And at this moment, Lu Zhanyan looked at Qin Shijin, she had a longing in her heart, longing to hear him say, longing for his trust......
However, his gaze remained cold.
Xiao Mobai seemed to think of something, and Wen Wen said, "Assistant Lu, do you know Manager Song of the Zhou family?" β
Previously in the International Trade Building, they left one after the other, and came back one after another, obviously old acquaintances.
Qin Shijin's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at her.
Lu Zhanyan said calmly, "I know Manager Song of the Zhou family, and I didn't do anything to be sorry for the company." β
"I'm afraid it's not just about getting to know each other!" Qin Shijin stabbed at her with a word, and she bit her lip.
"We are friends and former classmates." She retorted, but didn't want to talk about that layer of past relationships.
I always feel that it is in the past, so don't mention it.
But......
"Miss Zhou, the daughter of the Zhou family, also came to the company to warn you not to contact her fiancΓ© again. Miss Zhou's fiancΓ© is this classmate and friend of yours! Qin Shijin's words were sharp, forcing her to breathe, "What is the relationship between you and him!" β
Lu Zhanyan was stunned, and suddenly felt sad inexplicably, and couldn't say the reason, just sad.
"Say!" He snorted again.
Xiao Mobai couldn't bear to say on the side, "Assistant Lu, you better be honest, if it's really not you, I hope the misunderstanding will be resolved as soon as possible." β
In the face of their urgent gaze, she suppressed the sadness, but there was a disgust that had been spied on completely, and a sense of powerlessness gradually rose. After reuniting with Song Wencheng and parting and reuniting, she has never told others about their relationship, and if she can, she doesn't want others to know.
It's like how failed she is, how can she believe that waiting for someone has a result.
Without results, she's a fool.
Fools will wait.
will look forward to it.
Lu Zhanyan felt that his eyes were also sour, but he endured it patiently, not letting the water vapor overflow, and said softly, "He and I used to be lovers, we dating, and then we broke up. β
Finally, I finally said it.
There was a bloody pain from the wound, but it was inexplicably released.
Xiao Mobai frowned suddenly, such a relationship and identity would only make her more suspicious.
Qin Shijin was silent and didn't speak, he just looked at her, and that scene suddenly appeared in his mind, her deep affection and gentle gaze at the engagement banquet, the gaze she had also revealed during filming, such a relationship, he had already determined, and now when he heard her admit it in person, he felt so angry.
He and I used to be lovers.
We dated and then broke up.
So that night was just really just right, if it wasn't him, it would be someone else.
From the very beginning.
"Mr. Jin, what do you think?" Xiao Mobai asked sideways.
Qin Shijin didn't say a word, countless emotions flashed in his eyes, and then he recovered from a state of unhappiness, just spit out two words, "Call the police." β
Alarm......
Hearing these two words, Lu Zhanyan's face turned white.
She's going to the police station, she's going to be investigated, is she the same as her dad back then?
Xiao Mobai hesitated, and said in a deep voice, "This project is important, and if you call the police, it will have an impact on the company." β
On the way back, Xiao Mobai had already let go of his words, making all the team members tight-lipped. If the company hears anything, then they have to leave immediately. The leakage of confidential information is related to the ability of the person in charge, and in order to preserve the situation of the company, it is necessary to suppress the matter first, otherwise the stock market will be turbulent, and the gain will outweigh the loss.
And if the board of directors crusades, it will be difficult to clean up.
Qin Shijin said indifferently, "Whether she is innocent or not, you will know if you hand it over to the police." Secretary Wang, call the police. β
Wang Wen froze in place, her expression was solemn, "Mr. Jin......"
"I told you to call the police, and you didn't hear me?" Qin Shijin drank sharply, and Wang Wen could only walk to the phone.
"Secretary Wang, wait!" Xiao Mobai shouted to her, although she felt that something was inappropriate, but she also knew that in order to boost the company's discipline now, even if you can't catch the spy, you must have a legal process, otherwise you can't calm people's hearts, this matter is really tricky.
Xiao Mobai frowned, also in a dilemma, and said in annoyance, "But in this way, the director will not be able to hide it." β
Moreover, she is the person next to him.
Just when the stalemate was at a stalemate, Lu Zhanyan, who was stunned for a moment, raised her head, her gaze was in focus, and she had come back to her senses. Blood.
As if making the hardest decision, she clenched her hands into fists, and then let go of them for a split second as she spoke.
It seemed to be powerless to surrender, but his eyes were so resolute and proud.
"Mr. Jin, Manager Xiao, I don't think I need to call the police, I'll go to the police station for investigation now." Lu Zhanyan's voice was very soft, but very resolute.
Wang Wen looked at her in surprise, and Xiao Mobai was also stunned.
Unexpectedly, she would take the initiative to ask for an investigation.
If it were someone else, she would have cried and pleaded a long time ago, but she said so.
Qin Shijin pursed his thin lips, and then said, "Secretary Wang, you go with her." β
Is this distrustful of her? Heh, so still looking at her? In fact, it is also, why does he believe her again? Standpoint? Identity? Neither private nor public! Lu Zhanyan didn't say another half a word, just nodded at them, and then Wang Wen came to her, and the two walked out of the conference hall.
Xiao Mobai took out the cigarette case, took the cigarette and handed it to him, and smoked one himself.
Filled with smoke, Xiao Mobai said, "Jin, do you think this matter will be done by her?" β
"Everyone is suspicious." Qin Shijin's tone was flat, but it didn't mean that she was innocent.
Xiao Mobai spit out a puff of smoke rings and pondered, "I don't know why, I have a feeling that it wasn't her who did the reads;." β
"It's not impossible to steal information for the sake of an ex-boyfriend."
"But that ex-boyfriend is someone else's fiancΓ©, how can she be so stupid?"
"She's just that stupid." Qin Shijin naturally responded, but it caused Xiao Mobai to smile.
The atmosphere suddenly eased from tension and suffocation, Xiao Mobai chuckled and said, "It seems that you know each other very well." β
Qin Shijin was silent, just smoking a cigarette.
The two sat quietly for a while, and a cigarette burned to the end, Xiao Mobai then said, "I'm also back to the department, this matter will be handed over to you, and it's inconvenient for me to interfere." β
Qin Shijin replied.
Lu Zhanyan never thought that he would come to the police station one day, and he took the initiative to be investigated. Wang Wen accompanied her all the way, and there was no one around her, but she always felt empty. It's not just a heart that's empty, it's also a past that I don't want to recall.
When I arrived at the police station, there was already a superintendent waiting there.
It seems that the greeting has already been given.
"Miss Lu, is it? Here's please. "The superintendent is polite and polite.
Lu Zhanyan was about to follow him, but Wang Wen grabbed her from behind, "Assistant Lu." β
Lu Zhanyan turned his head blankly and saw her worried face, "Don't worry, if you didn't do it, you will definitely be fine." Mr. Jin is just doing things according to the rules, please understand. β
Got it......
She always understood.
Lu Zhanyan slowly came back to his senses, showed a strong smile at her, and had already mustered up the courage in his heart, and said calmly, "Secretary Wang, thank you, don't worry, I understand." I didn't do it, I wouldn't be afraid. You go back to the company, thank you really for today. β
Seeing her smiling, Wang Wen seemed to be relieved, "Then I'll go back first, and I'll contact you if there's anything." β
Immediately, Lu Zhanyan was taken into a small room by two superintendents to read.
I have only seen such scenes in TV series before, but now it is staged, and it is still on her.
Lu Zhanyan told herself that she was not afraid at all.
"Name."
"Lu Zhanyan."
"When did you enter the middle school?"
"This July."
"What is your position in the company?"
"Deputy General Assistant."
β¦β¦
The closed environment, the bright electric light, the superintendent's serious scrutinizing gaze, and the cold questioning, kept repeating, and then repeatedly, Lu Zhanyan gradually felt dizzy, as if he was about to lose his breath, and he was about to lose his breath. Her emotions were also a little broken, but she still maintained her last calm, just clenched her hands into fists and refused to let go.
The room was very cold, much colder than outside, and Lu Zhanyan felt cold to the bone.
After a series of questioning, the superintendent eventually took her to the detention center.
Iron fence, the air is calm, but lifeless. There were white walls on three sides, and the miserable white color made her feel dazzling.
Lu Zhanyan walked over and sat on the ground, she just curled up and sat cross-legged without saying a word.
Lu Qingsong also stayed in this kind of place back then.
At that time, he had long since lost the abundance of the west, and he was so haggard. It's just smiling eyes, and when they look at her, they are still so gentle.
Every time he went to visit him, Lu Qingsong always smiled and never got down.
Lu Zhanyan kept talking to him and told him that he studied hard in school, and he scored 100 points in the exam. She took out the test paper and showed it to him, and he smiled even more happily. She also told him that the new home was also good and that the aunts liked her because she was smart.
Lu Qingsong kept nodding, but that gaze made her want to cry.
Lu Zhanyan couldn't hold back and didn't cry at that time, because she didn't want her father to worry.
I vaguely remember Lu Qingsong saying: Yan Yan, you promised your father that you must not do bad things and not enter this kind of place.
At that time, Lu Zhanyan was not fully sensible, but he also knew that this was a bad place.
Lu Zhanyan said: Dad, I promise you, I will never do anything bad, and I will not come into this kind of place.
Lu Qingsong praised her: Yan Yan, good boy.
Now, Lu Zhanyan suddenly remembered the past, only to feel unstoppable, sad and faintly painful.
Dad, I didn't keep my promise.
You see, I'm not a good boy, I'm not smart at all, I'm just a fool.
After a long time, when Lu Zhanyan was numb even sitting, the superintendent came.
"Miss Lu Zhanyan, you can leave now, but during this time, you can't leave Hong Kong City, if there is any situation, we will get in touch with you again, please cooperate with the police." Superintendent of Police said.
Lu Zhanyan stood up and replied softly, "I know." β
Walking out of the police station, it was the afternoon time, the weather in winter, very cold, the white flowers of the sun shining overhead, making her feel empty. She didn't know where to go or where she was going back. The phone was in the bag, and it seemed to be ringing, and it kept ringing.
Lu Zhanyan walked a few steps, and then took it out to see.
Caller ID, that name, flashing in the eyes constantly, is Qin Shijin.
The phone vibrated while she held it, and she hesitated before slowly picking it up.
Lu Zhanyan felt that he couldn't make a sound, so it was difficult to open his mouth even if he just said "hey".
Then, I heard his deep male voice, with the usual indifferent temperature, "You don't use the company today." β
It took a long time for Lu Zhanyan to find his voice, "En----"
After a long time, it was silent again, it seemed that the other end had hung up, Lu Zhanyan just stood at the intersection of the police station in a daze, and the wind was whistling in his ears.
She seemed to hear her own heartbeat, mixed with his voice, "Go home now, wait for me to come back." β
It must have been because it was windy and cold, so there were tears in my eyes.
Lu Zhanyan didn't make a sound, just hung up the phone.
The next second, he called again, Lu Zhanyan felt that the ringtone was very annoying, so he simply pressed the shutdown.
She didn't want to go back immediately, she just wandered the streets aimlessly, like a ghost. When you get tired of walking, just sit down and rest for a while. When you don't get tired anymore, you get up and keep walking. Walking and walking, I came to the station. At this station, you can go back to Los Angeles and go back to her home.
It was where she lived for several years.
Lu Zhanyan didn't buy a ticket to get on the bus, but just sat in the waiting hall where people came and went.
When it gets dark, when the last train is gone, wait until the waiters come and ask, "Miss, it's closing." β
"I'm sorry." Lu Zhanyan hurriedly got up and apologized.
"Where are you going?"
"L.A."
"Oh, there's no car anymore, so you'd better come back tomorrow." The waiter said kindly.
There are no cars, there are no cars anymore.
Even if she had a car, she would never be able to go back to her home.
Lu Zhanyan nodded and turned around and left the waiting hall.
The saddest thing in the world is probably not having a home to go back to.
In the end, Lu Zhanyan had nowhere to go but to return to the Blue Castle Apartment.
It's just that as soon as the elevator door opened, I saw Qin Shijin. He was holding a black coat in one hand, and his handsome face, who had always been indifferent, had a somewhat worried look, as if he was going out.
And when he saw her in the elevator, his eyes were sharp, and Lu Zhanyan was not allowed to react too much, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the elevator.
Lu Zhanyan was also unusual, and did not resist him, but just let him grab and drag him into the apartment.
The door was slammed shut, she was dragged to stand in the living room, Qin Shijin's cold and eager male voice was violently covered, "Where have you been!" Do you know what time it is? You're a girl so late, why are you running around outside? Didn't I tell you to go home right away? Why didn't you listen to me? The ability is not small, but it turned off my phone? β
He asked countless words in a row, and after scolding, the apartment was quiet.
"Speak!" Qin Shijin shouted again.
Lu Zhanyan raised his head and just said, "This is not my home!" β
Her retort made Qin Shijin unable to respond, as if what she said was the truth.
After a while, Qin Shijin said in a deep voice, "Why are you turning off my phone?" Do you know how ...... I am?"
However, this time, before he could finish speaking, Lu Zhanyan broke out, "Mr. Jin! Where am I going, do I have to report it to you! If you ask me to come back, I must listen to you? β
Qin Shijin's eyes tightened, just staring at her, "Lu Zhanyan!" β
"Who are you and mine? Why should I listen to you? Why can't I turn it off to you? I have this right! Lu Zhanyan didn't pay attention to her at all, and seemed to have found an outlet, and those suppressed emotions tried his best to pour out at this time.
Qin Shijin was indifferent, just looking at her with a deep gaze.
"Don't worry, I won't leave Port City! I won't leave until the case is closed! Even if it's over, I won't leave! You don't have to be so nervous, you don't have to spy on me, I won't run away! Believe it or not, anyway, the information was not leaked by me, and it has nothing to do with me at all! She was even a little self-defeating, and her eyes were red.
Her appearance like this only made Qin Shijin's chest rise with a burst of pity and tenderness, and he stretched out his hands and hugged her into his arms.
Lu Zhanyan struggled to push him away, "Let go of me!" I can hug you when you want! Let go! β
Qin Shijin refused to let go, but just firmly encircled her in his arms and didn't move.
"Qin Shijin! You don't believe me anyway! I don't have anything to say! Don't be cowardly! Let go of me, are you deaf! Lu Zhanyan became hysterical, just resisting, resisting his approach, as if she was resisting letting him see her cowardice.
Qin Shijin pressed her to his chest, in such an inseparable posture, and said in her ear, "Lu Zhanyan, you listen to me, as long as you say no, I will believe you." β
Suddenly, something smashed into my heart, slitting open the wound, blurring so bloody that it was almost suffocating.
She was so flustered, so dazed, so afraid......
Lu Zhanyan beat him, beating him hard, but gradually, he had no strength, just grabbed his clothes weakly, and clung to him tightly.
"Qin Shijin, do you know, I hate the police station, I hate the detention center, I hate the prison, do you know, do you know......" Lu Zhanyan said hoarsely, his voice choked.
At that time, when Lu Qingsong was imprisoned, she never said this. It's just that these words can't be mentioned in front of Lu Qingsong, she can't make him sad, disappointed and worried, even if she doesn't have a mother, even if her father is not around, she can live well, she will definitely be able to live well.
The grievances she didn't have time to tell were suddenly presented in this winter, and she was so helpless, as if she had returned to the past.
Lu Zhanyan just repeated vigorously, "Do you know ......?"
And he suddenly said, "I know, I know." β
The cold wind outside was too cold, and his chest was not hot, but it was warm. The faint taste of tobacco is very similar to Lu Qingsong, but at this moment, all the grievances have been forgiven, along with the heartache that I don't want to remember in my heart, I am understood.
There was ice and snow melting, oozing out of her eyes, and she, who had always refused to show weakness, wept at this time.
Lu Zhanyan was in his arms, choking and crying.
