"I didn't touch your manuscript. I don't know what happened."

"You said you didn't know, so you didn't know? A few words won't clear your suspicion."

"I'm sorry that I burned your hand that day, but why would I touch your manuscript? What good can it do for me?"

Yan Shian sneered: "The benefits are obvious. You can get a project with my manuscript without any effort, how impressive."

Du Yi's eyes were red, and her mind went blank at the end, not knowing how to refute.

"Alright," Xie Yanfei stopped him, "What's the point of making so much noise like this?"

The people around didn't know what was going on, but they could hear some clues from their quarrel.

Speaking of which, the timing of Xie Yanfei interrupting the two of them was quite interesting.

He didn't say it earlier or later, but interrupted Du Yi when she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

This clearly shows that he is biased towards Yan Shian.

Sure enough, after Xie Yanfei and Du Yi had a brief conversation, Du Yi was "voluntarily" suspended.

Tang Jiangren was dumbfounded: "Boss, there is no evidence yet, and you are doing this. Aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the rest of us?"

"Du Yi must be innocent, Boss, there must be a misunderstanding!"

"Why are you here to join in the fun?" Xie Yanfei was very impatient. "If you have time, hurry up and finish your new manuscript."

Tang Jiang was not convinced and opened his mouth to argue a few more words, but was stopped by a few good friends who covered his mouth.

But Yan Shian was still adding fuel to the fire: "Oh, Han Xin?"

"When she stole my manuscript and sold it to our rival, why didn't she think about whether we would be disappointed?"

Tang Jiang stopped struggling in a daze, not understanding why Yan Shian, who used to have such a good relationship with them, had become so aggressive.

"What are you looking at?" Yan Shian glared at him fiercely, "You also want to go back and be suspended voluntarily?"

The originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere was made very awkward by this incident.

Yue Ling hesitated for two seconds, but still knocked on Xie Yanfei's office door.

"Enter."

Everyone was pretending to be doing their own things. When they saw Yue Ling enter the office, they could more or less guess her purpose.

Before they could wonder whether Yue Ling would change the situation, she came out angrily.

"Master Ling," someone said weakly, "are you okay?"

Yue Ling smiled coldly: "I'm fine, very fine!"

She held her breath, packed up all her things, turned around and left, holding a cardboard box.

The front desk was stunned.

"Sister Ling? Where are you going? Sister Ling?"

Yue Ling paused for a moment, expressionless: "Can't you see? I was fired."

As if to confirm what she said, Xie Yanfei's voice followed closely: "If anyone has doubts about my decision, go with them."

Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything.

In the next few days, everyone was tactful and no one mentioned this matter again.

But the atmosphere in the office is obviously much more depressing, and it’s hard to go back to the way it was before.

Moreover, there are fewer and fewer people in the office these days.

Many people worked for another day or two and then never showed up in the office again.

This means they all resigned.

In the corner, Xuan Zhizhi looked around the empty office, her gaze lingering on Yan Shian for a moment, then quickly moved away.

She made a cup of coffee and knocked on Xie Yanfei's office door: "Boss."

Xie Yanfei: "Come in."

He looked at Xuan Zhizhi and frowned, "What's the matter? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me casually?"

"Boss," Xuan Zhizhi put the coffee on his desk, "I'm sorry, it's just that after Yue Ling left, I was worried that no one else would take care of you."

She lowered her posture and said, "I'm just a little worried about your recent condition."

Normal people know not to hit someone who smiles at them.

Xie Yanfei looked at the coffee on the table, his expression slightly relaxed: "You are thoughtful."

"This is what I should do," Xuan Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled, "As an employee, I should share the boss's worries."

“Boss, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Others may doubt you, but I will always believe in every decision you make.”

Xie Yanfei pursed her lips and said nothing.

But starting from the next day, everyone keenly felt that Xie Yanfei's attitude towards Xuan Zhizhi was different.

She raised her lips slowly.

In the coffee shop, Xuan Zhizhi looked at the person opposite her: "You asked me to do things, and I have done them all. Where is the balance?"

"What did we ask you to do?" The man laughed. "Miss Xuan, there is no evidence. Please don't slander us."

"You were the one who turned off the power, and you copied the document and revealed it to us. What did we do?"

Xuan Zhizhi was not panicked at all.

"You don't really think I'm that careless?" She sneered, "I recorded our first conversation."

"Oh, by the way, although we left the room one after the other that day, I asked the waiter to check the surveillance video and recorded it. Do you want to see it?"

She asked.

Under normal circumstances, surveillance records will not be shown to outsiders at will.

But that day she claimed that she lost a necklace worth tens of thousands of dollars in this store. In order to distance herself from the matter, the clerk naturally agreed to her every request.

Now it was the person on the other side's turn to be dumbfounded.

He gritted his teeth, and finally took out a bank card from his pocket reluctantly, forcing a smile: "Miss Xuan, I was just joking with you just now."

"This is also the final payment we agreed on. Please be sure to accept it."

"What balance?" Xuan Zhizhi blinked in confusion, "Nothing happened between us, don't talk nonsense."

This person: “…You are right.”

Xuan Zhizhi was in a good mood.

She took the bank card from the table, already planning in her mind how to use the money.

Now that everyone has money, who would still work?

Anyway, there is no evidence for this matter, so even if someone suspects her at that time, there is nothing she can do.

Xuan Zhizhi became happier the more she thought about it. She walked briskly to the door and opened it.

The next second she saw the scene clearly and the smile froze on her lips.

"Hi," Yan Shian waved, "my dear colleague."

Her eyes fell on the bank card he was holding, and her smile deepened. "Does anyone who sees it get a share?"

Xuan Zhizhi was so scared that she stepped back on the spot, her voice sharp: "Yan, Yan Shian!"

"Good colleague, in an emergency, you are the one who saves me trouble," Yan Shian pressed on, "Thanks to you, otherwise I really don't know where to find evidence."

She raised her chin slightly, "Hand over the evidence."

The people inside were obviously shocked by this sudden change.

But the private room had no windows, and now Yan Shian and his bodyguards had blocked the door, so he had nowhere to escape!

"I don't know what you're talking about," Xuan Zhizhi clenched her palms, "We just, we——"

She thought of something and said louder, "We are just a sponsorship relationship!"

"Besides, even if I broke the law, you have no right to stop me here!"

Yan Shian: “……?”

"Well," she shrugged helplessly, "there's really nothing we can do about it."

"I'll get out of the way now, you go."

Xuan Zhizhi smiled with surprise, fearing that Yan Shian would go back on his word, and rushed out the door clutching her bag and bank card.
