Double evil in the business district

In the conference room, the atmosphere was as oppressive as the stagnant air.

Xiao Yue sat at the head seat at the long table, tapping the tabletop lightly with his fingertips, one tap after another, as if tapping on the hearts of everyone present.

Beneath her delicate makeup, her eyes were as sharp as a hawk, scanning every slightly uneasy face present.

Those rumors, like invisible swords, stung people's hearts and caused cracks in the originally cohesive team.

"President Zhou," her cold voice broke the silence, "how's the investigation going?"

Zhou Gongguan pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose. His voice was low, but with a hint of anger.

A sneer appeared on Xiao Yue's lips. That smile contained a bit of disdain, but more of the confidence of being in control of the situation.

"It is as I expected." Her voice was not loud, but it was resounding, as if everything was within her expectations.

In her eyes, those little tricks were nothing more than clown tricks.

After the meeting, Xiao Yue did not rush to take action, but quietly observed the changes within the company.

She could feel that some employees who had been working actively began to become absent-minded, and there was a bit more doubt and distrust in their eyes.

She knew it was time to stabilize the morale of the troops.

The next day, Xiao Yue convened an impromptu meeting of all employees.

When she walked into the conference room, the whole room was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

She walked onto the stage, looked around, and at the anxious and confused faces, a sense of responsibility surged in her heart.

"I know everyone's heard some bad rumors recently," Xiao Yue's voice was calm and firm, without a trace of panic. "Some people are questioning my ability and even questioning our team's cooperation. I'm standing here today to tell everyone that those rumors are completely false!"

She turned on the projector, and a series of detailed data appeared on the screen. Each item clearly recorded the progress of Xiao's enterprise's cooperation with high-end technology companies, as well as the benefits she brought to the company.

"These data are enough to prove everything. I, Xiao Yue, have a clear conscience!" Her tone was sonorous and powerful, like a sharp sword, cutting off all doubts.

"As for those who spread rumors, their purpose is very clear: to undermine our cooperation and disrupt our morale!" Xiao Yue's tone became stern. "Their despicable tactics will only make us more united! I believe that every employee of our Xiao Group has the ability to distinguish right from wrong!"

Below the stage, the employees began to whisper, and the doubts on their faces gradually dissipated, replaced by guilt and regret.

Those data clearly told them everything Xiao Yue had done for the company and the absurdity of those rumors.

They felt ashamed of their distrust, but at the same time, they were grateful to have such a calm and wise leader.

After the meeting, the employees' enthusiasm for work was ignited again and the entire company was revitalized.

Rumors are like a gust of wind, leaving nothing behind after they pass.

Xiao Yue returned to the office, picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number.

"Hey, Tom, I've seen through your little tricks." She said with a hint of contempt, then hung up the phone with a meaningful smile on her face.

Just then, Secretary Wu knocked on the door and walked in, holding a document in his hand. "Mr. Xiao, this is the marketing plan you asked me to prepare..."

Xiao Yue flipped through the documents, her slender fingers sliding gently across the pages, but her thoughts drifted further away.

She needed a bolder, more impactful proposal, one that would bring fame to both parties involved.

Inspirations collided in my mind, and a vague outline gradually became clear.

She picked up a pen and drew lines on the blank A4 paper, as if composing a passionate piece of music.

"Secretary Wu," Xiao Yue put down her pen, her tone a little excited, "Please contact Mr. John for me and tell him I have a new proposal I'd like to discuss with him."

The meeting with John was scheduled in an elegant cafe.

The sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting mottled shadows on the table.

Xiao Yue handed the plan to John, with confidence shining in his eyes.

"This is a cross-border marketing plan that combines online and offline to create a new brand image..." She explained her ideas in detail, her voice clear and infectious.

John listened attentively, nodding his head in agreement from time to time.

His slender fingers tapped lightly on the plan, making a rhythmic sound, as if knocking on the door of win-win cooperation.

"Ms. Xiao, this is great!" His eyes sparkled with admiration. "I completely agree with your proposal and am willing to make additional investments."

When the news reached the company, it immediately caused a stir.

Technician Liu's furrowed brow relaxed. He breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself, "Great! The partnership is secure!" PR Zhou clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Now let's see what our competitors have to say!"

At the same time, on Tom's desk, there was a report on Xiao's latest plan.

His face was ashen and the pen in his hand creaked as he squeezed it.

"Damn it!" He slammed the report down on the table and growled through gritted teeth, "This Xiao Yue is really quite capable!"

Xiao Yue was on his way back to the company, but he was not at peace.

Although the plan was approved by John, she was still worried that the rumors would have a negative impact on the cooperation.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.

After meeting John, Xiao Yue got straight to the point: "Mr. John, regarding some recent rumors..."

John raised his hand to interrupt her, with a hint of smile in his blue eyes, "Miss Xiao, rumors stop at the wise, don't they?"

His words were like a reassurance, finally putting Xiao Yue's heart at ease.

She looked at John gratefully, with a determined glint in her eyes.

Back in the office, Xiao Yue leaned back in his chair tiredly and rubbed his aching temples.

At this moment, the phone vibrated and a text message popped up: "Waiting for you on the top floor." Who is it?

Xiao Yue looked at the text message on his phone and frowned slightly.

She was wondering who sent the text message, but she didn't have the energy to think about it at the moment.

The busyness and pressure of several consecutive days made her feel physically and mentally exhausted.

Taking a deep breath, she decided to go to the top floor to take a look.

The elevator took her to the top floor smoothly.

As soon as she got out of the elevator, she was stunned by the scene before her.

Soft light shone on the table, exquisite tableware was neatly arranged, and a faint fragrance filled the air. Shen Ting stood by the window, his light blue tie looking particularly elegant under the light.

"Shen Ting..." Xiao Yue called softly, with a hint of surprise and warmth in her voice.

Shen Ting turned around, a doting smile on his lips, "Xiao Yue, thank you for your hard work. Today, I prepared a dinner for you, I hope you like it."

Xiao Yue walked to Shen Ting and felt the warmth coming from him.

Her eyes were slightly moist, and her heart was filled with gratitude and emotion.

"Thank you, Shen Ting." She said softly, with a hint of sob in her voice.

Shen Ting hugged her gently and stroked her hair softly with one hand.

"Here, you can temporarily forget all your worries and relax." His words were like a warm current, bringing her heart a moment of peace.

The dinner was held in a warm atmosphere. The two chatted while eating and shared each other's little moments.

Xiao Yue leaned in Shen Ting's arms, feeling his warmth and care, occasionally raising her head coquettishly, her eyes full of happiness and satisfaction.

However, the happy time is always short-lived.

After dinner, Xiao Yue returned to the company and continued her work.

She did not reduce normal communication with other companies because of the rumors. Instead, she took the initiative to invite some companies to visit the cooperation projects between Xiao's Enterprise and high-end technology companies.

During the visit, she introduced the progress and prospects of the project in detail, showing the company's strength and confidence.

Representatives from other companies were full of praise and had a deeper understanding of the strength of Xiao's company, which also completely bankrupted the competitors' conspiracy.

Just when the cooperation was about to achieve phased results, the project leader of the high-end technology company suddenly found Xiao Yue with a serious expression.

"Xiao Yue, we have encountered a big problem. The technology has been leaked!" His voice was low and anxious.

Xiao Yue's heart sank suddenly, but she quickly adjusted her mood and said firmly: "Don't worry, we will solve this problem together." There was a firm light in her eyes, as if telling the other party that she would not give up.
