She actually dared to make such a solemn vow. Did she have a backup plan?
However, she didn't have time to think about it. Guan Chao quickly asked Li Tingshen to inform her to go to the CEO's office on the top floor.
Before Bai Lu went up, she felt very uneasy. However, when she stood in front of the CEO's office, she calmed down.
No matter what was waiting for her, as long as she didn't do it, she had a clear conscience. Why should she be nervous and afraid?
She subconsciously placed her hand on her lower abdomen. Her lips moved as she silently said to herself, "Baby, cheer for mommy!"
Finally, Bai Lu took a deep breath. She calmed herself down and reached out to knock on the door.
When she pushed the door open and entered, Liang Feifan was sitting on the sofa with a serious expression on his face. The man behind the dark rose leather desk was expressionless. His facial features seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice. Every inch of his face exuded a frosty aura.
There was a laptop in front of him. His two long legs were casually crossed. When he heard her footsteps, he didn't even raise his head. "Come here."
Bai Lu reflexively looked at Guan Chao. Unexpectedly, Guan Chao's phone suddenly rang.
The standard ringtone cut through the tense atmosphere. He leaned over and said, "Mr. Liang, I'm going to take a call."
Liang Feifan glanced at him. Guan Chao immediately lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Liang, it's a call from XX Hospital. There might be news."
Liang Feifan waved his hand. "Get out."
Guan Chao quickly walked out of the office. Bai Lu's mind was focused on the design. Although she kept telling herself that she had a clear conscience before she came in, she couldn't remain indifferent when she saw Liang Feifan's cold and distant expression.
Therefore, when Guan Chao and Liang Feifan mentioned the word "hospital," she was so absent-minded that she didn't hear it clearly.
"Come here." When Liang Feifan saw her standing there motionless, he slightly clenched his hands and calmly repeated himself.
"… Mr. Liang, do you have a result?" Bai Lu did not walk towards him obediently. She felt that she should face him head-on now. "If there's already a result, please let me know, Mr Liang. I'd really like to know."
Liang Feifan narrowed his eyes and slowly lowered his long legs. After a moment, he raised his eyebrows and pushed the laptop in front of him in her direction. "You want to know the results? Come and see for yourself! "
Bai Lu followed his gaze and looked up. The laptop screen was facing her. She hesitated for a moment before slowly walking over.
However, when she saw the image on the screen clearly, she was stunned. "… Mr. Liang, is this … is this my email?"
Liang Feifan flicked the edge of the laptop monitor. "That's right, your email. Take a look at the first email. Before you left the company yesterday, you personally sent it. As for what the content is, I don't need to explain, right? "
Bai Lu felt a chill run down her spine. She shook her head instinctively. "No, I didn't do it! I didn't — "
"EC Corporation's network management system is very powerful. As long as there is a computer in this building, there is a record of what has been sent and what has been done. However, this concerns the privacy of the employees. If something like this hadn't happened today, I wouldn't have asked Guan Chao to investigate. "
Bai Lu did not say a word. She seemed to be waiting for Liang Feifan to continue.
"Guan Chao is doing this step by step to find out who the mastermind behind this matter is. However, unfortunately, he saw your email. Yesterday afternoon, before you left EC Corporation, your company email was sent out. The email was addressed to Chu Weiye. The attachment was your design drawings and your design concept. "
Liang Feifan's slender fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard a few times. The email opened, and there was a record of the email. It was indeed as he had said …
Bai Lu's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Her long eyelashes fluttered uneasily, and her eyes reddened. She looked up at his tense, handsome face and bit her lip. "Mr. Liang, are you suspecting me?"
Liang Feifan's dark eyes deepened. His slightly bent body slowly straightened. He looked at Bai Lu without blinking, but his thin lips were tightly pursed. It seemed like he had no intention of speaking.
Bai Lu remained in her original position. She craned her neck to look at the man leaning deeply on the sofa. He didn't speak, and neither did she. The two of them stared at each other silently in the air.
One was as deep as a black whirlpool, while the other was as red as a rabbit.
Did he not believe her?
She felt wronged. Her heart felt like it was being squeezed by a pair of invisible hands. Blood rushed to her brain and finally returned to her eyes. Her vision gradually blurred.
Even she couldn't figure out what she was most concerned about. Was it the fact that her design drawings were mysteriously leaked and she had to take the blame, or … Liang Feifan's enigmatic look right now?
"Mr. Liang, I don't know what you're thinking." She unconsciously intertwined her hands together, then subconsciously clenched them. She also took two steps back to maintain a certain distance from him. Then she lowered her eyes. "But I still have to explain. Whether you believe me or not, I just want to say … this has nothing to do with me. I didn't do it. "
She spoke very slowly, but every word was clear. "Chu Weiye and I met by chance, and we didn't have any contact afterward. Yesterday was completely an accident. I don't know how things turned out like this … As for the bidding for the municipal building, I'm really sorry. No matter what, I have to take some responsibility for this matter. If you agree, I'm willing to —"
"Mr. Liang!"
Before Bai Lu could finish speaking, the door to the CEO's office was suddenly pushed open. Guan Chao rushed in with a tense expression. He was still holding a phone in his hand. It seemed like he had just hung up.
"Mr. Liang, there's something …" Guan Chao glanced at Bai Lu, then at Liang Feifan. He was really anxious. "It's about the hospital …"
Liang Feifan quickly raised his hand. Guan Chao immediately fell silent and stood respectfully to the side. However, he looked especially anxious. It seemed like something had happened.
"Go back first," Liang Feifan said to Bai Lu.
Bai Lu looked up somewhat hurriedly. "… Mr. Liang."
"Go back first." Liang Feifan's voice was low, but it was irresistible. For a moment, his deep gaze seemed to be able to see through her heart. He looked at the tears she was trying hard to hold back. Those red eyes were like a powerful corrosive that could actually corrode his mind little by little.
Liang Feifan secretly took a deep breath. Then he forced himself to look away as if nothing had happened. He only said, "We'll talk about this later. I have other things to do right now. You go back first." After a pause, he added, "You don't have to come to work today. Go back and have a good rest. If there's anything else, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Bai Lu bit her lip. She still wanted to say something, but all the words were stuck in her throat when Liang Feifan stood up from the sofa.
She didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't question her, nor did he say that he suspected her. However, he also didn't say that he believed her …
Actually, she knew that the things Liang Feifan just showed her were already the most unfavorable evidence against her. Even if she could only rely on her own mouth to explain that she didn't do it, what could she do?
He was EC's CEO. This was an opportunity for a bid. A bid that EC had invested a lot of manpower and resources but had no choice but to forfeit because of her.
Whether or not she did it, she couldn't shirk the responsibility. Just like how she suspected Liang Jingxiao. However, if she hadn't been the person in charge of the bid this time, Liang Jingxiao wouldn't have hurt her, right?
EC was the company of the Liang Clan. Liang Jingxiao was also a member of the Family Liang. If she really did all this, her goal was only herself.
…
She finally turned around and strode out of the office.
So what if she explained?
In her heart, she still felt wronged. However, no matter how wronged she felt, there was no evidence to prove that she was innocent. No matter how much she said, it was useless. If Liang Feifan had really suspected her from the beginning to the end, based on his personality, he wouldn't have needed to say so much to her. Perhaps she wouldn't even have had the chance to stand in front of him.
Actually, after she thought all this through, she felt a lot more comfortable in her heart.
If he didn't completely trust her, then he didn't completely deny her either …
In the face of the so-called "ironclad evidence," he didn't completely deny her. Bai Lu felt that this already gave her a lot of courage.
Her previous grievances and unwillingness … These negative emotions seemed to have become a kind of positive energy at this moment. It was as if they were constantly telling her —
Bai Lu, you should find out the truth yourself.
Yes, she should find out the truth herself. If Liang Jingxiao didn't work, then she should look for Chu Weiye.
She wanted to see what the dignified head of the Far East Group could say to her after openly stealing her design drawings. …
"Mr. Liang." After waiting for Bai Lu to leave, Guan Chao immediately went forward and said, "Something happened at XX Hospital. Miss Bai's case is no longer in XX Hospital …"
Liang Feifan happened to be sitting in his office chair. When he heard this, he suddenly raised his head and frowned. "No longer in the hospital? Where's the case? "
Guan Chao looked troubled. This was the first time he stuttered in front of Liang Feifan. He didn't say anything for a long time.
Liang Feifan slammed the pen in his hand on the file with a bang. His voice became even lower. "When did you learn to stutter in front of me? You know that I hate this kind of thing the most! "
Guan Chao held his breath. He could feel the malice in Liang Feifan's eyes. The bidding for the municipal building made him very unhappy. They had clearly vowed to win the project, but they didn't want to be interrupted halfway. In the end, they took the initiative to forfeit.
Liang Feifan was a successful businessman who always kept his word in the business world. How could he really remain indifferent when faced with such a situation?
If it wasn't for the fact that the person who stole the design drawings was Bai Lu, anyone else would have left EC by now …
