My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child

Lin Yue'er didn't say anything, but her expression was extremely ugly.

There was a cheerful atmosphere all around, and everyone was congratulating Qiao Qin for winning the competition.

"I knew you could do it." Lu Guangxi patted her shoulder and said with a smile.

Qiao Qin remained calm, as if she had anticipated this result. She said softly, "It was just luck."

"How can it be luck that you can stand out from countless design drafts?" Lu Guangxi looked disapproving. He glanced at Lin Yue'er who was standing stiffly beside him and frowned slightly.

In fact, he had also heard about the open and covert fighting between the two.

"Yuer, you should learn more from Sister Qiao in the future." Lu Guangxi's voice was slightly deep, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

Lin Yue'er clenched her hands at her side and curled her lips: "Got it."

The door of the conference room slowly opened.

As soon as the two walked out, they were met with pairs of curious gazes, with gossip written all over their faces.

The young assistant was the first to break the silence and looked at Qiao Qin expectantly.

"Qiao, Sister Qiao, what's the result?"

Her voice was a little stammering, and her tone was full of nervousness that could not be concealed.

Qiao Qin raised her eyebrows and shook the gold trophy in her hand. The answer was self-evident.

next second.

The assistant's cheers echoed throughout the office: "Wow! Sister Qiao is amazing!"

However, human joys and sorrows are not the same.

Those who had bet on Lin Yue'er were now regretting it so much that they couldn't help but grumble in silence.

"Isn't he a top student who studied abroad? How come he can't even beat a person with connections?"

"I trusted her so much, but it turns out she's just a show-off."

"Seeing how confident she was, I thought she had some ability, but it turned out she was just bragging."

......

Some unpleasant words came into my ears.

Lin Yue'er's face was terribly gloomy. Unable to bear those strange looks, she turned around and strode out of the company.

The dejected back figure seemed to be fleeing in panic.

the other side.

The assistant covered her mouth and chuckled, "Sister Qiao, you don't know that her face was darker than the bottom of my pot at that time."

Qiao Qin shook her head helplessly.

"You've already said that."

"Hahaha, really? Mainly because it feels so good."

The young assistant put his hands on his hips and looked very proud.

Qiao Qin couldn't help but curl her lips, and her mood improved a lot.

The night is getting dark.

The cold wind blew past, ruffling the hair beside my ears.

Qiao Qin pulled the coat around her shoulders and just as she left the company, she saw a familiar car parked at the door.

"Madam, are we going back to the villa?"

The driver asked but got no response, so he had to ask again: "Madam?"

Qiao Qin suddenly came back to her senses and hummed softly, but she couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror again and again.

She seemed to have seen a tall and slender figure just now, whose outline looked very much like Huo Shiyan.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from sight.

Is it an illusion?

Qiao Qin sneered, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.

How could it be him?

Since she confessed that day, she has never seen Huo Shiyan again. As expected, after he lost his usefulness, the other party was too lazy to even act.

Qiao Qin shook her head and put all the messy thoughts in her mind behind her.

Forget it, I still don’t want to.

the next morning.

When Qiao Qin arrived at the company, she found that people around her kept looking at her obscurely, and whispering to each other from time to time, as if they were discussing something.

She frowned and just walked over. Before she could hear clearly, the other party had already sat back in a panic, pretending to be busy working in front of the computer.

The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

The moment Qiao Qin walked into the office and the door closed, the discussion started again.

"I didn't expect her to be so shameless that she even plagiarized Lin Yue'er's work just to win."

"I've seen both designs, and there are indeed many similarities. Unfortunately, she has a background and support, so Yue'er doesn't dare to make a big deal out of it."

"Are you so sure that it was Sister Qiao who plagiarized Lin Yue'er, and not Lin Yue'er who plagiarized someone else?"

"Nonsense, isn't this obvious? Qiao Qin is afraid that Lin Yue'er will become too popular and will take away her title of director, so..."

Those who participated in the bet would rather believe in their own imagination than admit that they had misjudged the person.

Lin Yue'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she didn't say a word. She just sat at her workstation and wiped her tears silently, showing her grievance with her actions.

Fortunately, she had kept a trick up her sleeve.

Although the result was somewhat unexpected, she could still recover some of the losses by guiding these stupid guys to sway public opinion in her favor.

Lin Yue'er's mind was busy calculating.

however.

Her every move was exposed.

"That's it, Sister Qiao, you can't tolerate it anymore. They are really going too far." The young assistant clenched his fists and said viciously.

"Especially that Lin Yue'er, who started to slander you right after she lost the game."

Qiao Qin suddenly realized.

No wonder those people looked at her strangely when she came to the company in the morning.

Qiao Qin's eyes dimmed. She had been tolerant of Lin Yue'er again and again, but she didn't expect that she would go so far. So don't blame her for being rude.

The assistant's complaining voice kept coming from my ears.

Qiao Qin raised her eyelids: "Do you trust me so much?"

The assistant nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

"Okay, then follow me." Qiao Qin stood up suddenly and walked out without explaining.

"pat-"

The moment the door opened.

Silence immediately returned outside, and the only sound was the clacking of keyboard typing.

Everyone was pretending to work, but in fact their attention was focused on the figure at the door. As they watched Qiao Qin walk towards Lin Yue'er, the fire of gossip burned fiercely in their hearts.

Qiao Qin lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes hiding the emotions within, and walked to Lin Yue'er and stopped.

"I heard that I plagiarized your design?"

She got straight to the point and asked directly.

Lin Yue'er was stunned for a moment.

In my memory, Qiao Qin always looked noncompetitive, and this seemed to be the first time she asked such a sharp question.

There was a flash of panic in her eyes, but she calmed down.

"How could that be? Although the designs we used for the competition are somewhat similar, that's just a coincidence. It has absolutely nothing to do with plagiarism or anything like that."

Lin Yue'er's eyes were slightly red, and her eagerness to distance herself from the matter seemed more like she was trying to cover up the truth.

In the eyes of those who didn't know the truth, it seemed more like Qiao Qin had copied Lin Yue'er's design draft and was forcing her to clarify it to everyone.

"It's simply too much!"

A sentence suddenly popped up in my ear.

One person couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up to defend Lin Yue'er and pointed at Qiao Qin's nose and cursed.

"Yue'er has already lost the game, what else do you want her to do? God is watching you, don't think you can do whatever you want in the company just because you have a little background."

"I will report your evil deeds to the board of directors right now. Even if you have connections, you will be fired!"

The person who was speaking was obviously a young man who had just graduated and started working. He still had a slight affection for Lin Yue'er in his heart, and he was eager to stand up for her.

"Wait a moment."

Lin Yue'er's face changed slightly. She was the only one who knew the truth, and it couldn't stand up to investigation at all.

However, the young man had already rushed into the meeting room.

At this moment, no one was in the mood to go to work. There was a gleam of gossip in their eyes, and everyone craned their necks to wait for what would happen next.

Ten minutes later.

The young man came back aggressively, followed by a group of people, most of whom were high-level directors of the company who were rarely seen in normal days.

"Leaders, I am talking about her."

He pointed at Qiao Qin and said indignantly, "It was her. She was worried that her subordinates would take her position as director, so she plagiarized the other party's design draft and forced Yue'er to deny it."

As soon as the words fell, the surroundings fell into dead silence.

Qiao Qin folded her hands in front of her, her face expressionless and without a trace of panic, as if she was not the one being accused.

The senior leaders also looked at each other with a bit of strangeness in their expressions.

next second.

One of them stood up, nodded slightly to Qiao Qin, and said respectfully:

"Mrs. Huo, we didn't know he was talking about you."
