Double evil in the business district

"New cooperation..." Xiao Yue repeated these three words in a low voice, but his eyes became colder.

The bright lights of the city outside the window seemed to cast a layer of mist in her eyes, reflecting the complex thoughts in her heart.

Mark's proposal of a new cooperation at this critical juncture was too coincidental for her to help but think about it.

"Mr. Xiao, how do you think we should respond?" Secretary Zhou asked cautiously, with a hint of worry in his tone.

Xiao Yue turned around, her eyes revealing determination, "Promise him. Arrange a meeting, I want to talk to him in person." Her slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a crisp sound, one after another, as if tapping on Secretary Zhou's heart, and also on the drumbeat of fate.

"Understood." Secretary Zhou took the order and left, and the office returned to silence.

Xiao Yue walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the endless stream of cars below, and had already made up his mind.

She wanted to take advantage of the situation and lure the snake out of its hole.

At the same time, Shen Ting called again, "Yueyue, I have arranged for Detective Liu to investigate Mark. Remember, be careful." His low voice with a hint of concern passed through the radio waves and entered Xiao Yue's ears, like a warm current, dispelling the coldness in her heart.

"I understand. Thank you, Ting." Xiao Yue's voice softened a little, and her heart was filled with gratitude.

With Shen Ting's support behind her, she became more determined in her belief.

In the next few days, Xiao Yue discussed the new project with Mark's team while secretly instructing Detective Liu to investigate the secret behind Mark.

Every meeting with Mark is like walking on a tightrope; if you’re not careful, you’ll fall into the abyss.

Mark’s eyes were as cold as a venomous snake, and his words were full of temptation and traps.

In the conference room, the cold air from the air conditioner blew on Xiao Yue's face, but she felt her palms sweating slightly.

The cooperation terms proposed by Mark seem tempting, but they actually contain hidden secrets.

She listened calmly, her brain working rapidly, analyzing the meaning behind each clause.

Secretary Zhou sat beside her, nervously flipping through the documents.

"Mr. Xiao, regarding Article 7..." Mark's voice carried a hint of imperceptible pride.

Xiao Yue raised her head, looked directly at Mark, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. "Mr. Mark, regarding Article 7..." She paused, and gently tapped the document with her slender fingers. "It seems that we still have some details to discuss..."

Xiao Yue's clear voice echoed in the conference room, and every word was resounding, like nails, nailing Mark's heart.

"Mr. Mark, the scope of 'technology sharing' in Article 7 is too broad. I suggest revising it to 'limited technology sharing' and adding a detailed list of technologies as an appendix." She smiled slightly and projected the revised clause onto the big screen. "This will protect the interests of both parties and avoid unnecessary disputes in the future."

The smile on Mark's face froze, his eyes flickering, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

He didn't expect Xiao Yue to be so sharp and see through the trap he set at a glance.

Originally, he wanted to steal Xiao's latest technology in the name of "technology sharing", but now Xiao Yue has turned the tables on him.

His fingers tapped unconsciously on the table, making a "tapping" sound, revealing his inner anxiety.

"Mr. Xiao is indeed thoughtful." Mark laughed dryly, with a hint of reluctance in his tone, "Your suggestion makes sense, we will seriously consider it." He picked up the water glass on the table and took a big sip of water, trying to hide his panic.

The ice cubes in the cup made a crisp sound when they collided, but it was more like knocking on his tense nerves.

Xiao Yue's mouth corners slightly raised, and he was secretly proud in his heart.

She had long anticipated that Mark would not compromise easily, so she made preparations in advance.

She calmly responded to every question raised by Mark and skillfully steered the conversation in a direction that was beneficial to her.

Her every frown and smile was full of confidence and control, which made Mark feel an inexplicable pressure.

Shen Ting, who was listening in, watched Xiao Yue talking with a slight smile on his face. He had known Xiao Yue's abilities for a long time, but her performance today still surprised him.

He seemed to see a shining star rising.

After the meeting, Mark left the Xiao Building with a gloomy face.

He sat in the car with his fists clenched. He didn't expect that his carefully planned plan would be easily seen through by Xiao Yue, which made him feel extremely frustrated.

He took out his cell phone and dialed a number. "Find out Xiao Yue's recent movements for me. I want to know what she's up to!"

At this time, Xiao Yue had already expected that Mark would send someone to investigate him.

She arranged countermeasures in advance and set up multiple "smoke bombs" within the company to divert Mark's attention in the wrong direction.

When the people sent by Mark came to Xiao's to investigate, all they saw were some ordinary business activities and they didn't find any clues at all.

Detective Liu reported the results of the investigation to Xiao Yue, his tone full of admiration, "Boss Xiao, your arrangement is really perfect. Mark's people were completely fooled by you."

Xiao Yue smiled faintly, "This is just the beginning." She picked up her phone and dialed a number, "Mr. Chen, long time no see..."

Xiao Yue sat behind the large desk, tapping the table lightly with his fingertips, making a crisp rhythm.

Outside the window, night falls and the city lights are bright, like stars scattered on the earth.

On the table, a document lay quietly. It was just a few thin sheets of paper, but it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

This is the key evidence of Mark's private transactions with competitors that was secretly obtained by industry tycoon Chen through his own connections.

She took a deep breath, picked up the document, and carefully flipped through each page.

Mark's crimes were clearly recorded in black and white, and every line was like a sharp knife, piercing her nerves.

The office was silent, with only the sound of shuffling papers and Xiao Yue's heartbeat intertwined together, like a tense piece of music.

"Mark, it's time for you to pay the price." Xiao Yue whispered to herself. She picked up her cell phone and called Mark.

"Mr. Xiao, it's so late, is there anything wrong?" Mark's voice was a little lazy, as if he was completely unaware of the coming danger.

"Of course there is something, and it's very important." Xiao Yue's tone was cold, and every word was like an icicle, piercing Mark's eardrum.

"I think you should be very interested in this document."

A moment later, Mark rushed into Xiao Yue’s office with a pale face.

He snatched the document from Xiao Yue's hand, quickly glanced through it, and the blood color on his face instantly faded.

He raised his head and looked at Xiao Yue in horror, his lips trembling, but he couldn't say a word.

Xiao Yue looked at Mark's frightened expression, and a sense of relief surged in his heart.

Months of patience and investigation finally paid off.

She felt the blood in her body boiling, and the pleasure of revenge almost made her tremble.

At this time, Public Relations Wu had also prepared public opinion and was ready to make Mark's crimes public at any time.

Shen Ting pushed the door open and saw the gleam in Xiao Yue's eyes. He immediately understood what had happened.

He walked up to Xiao Yue and couldn't help but hold her in his arms.

Xiao Yue leaned in Shen Ting's arms, feeling his warmth and strength.

The employees around them were envious when they saw how sweet they were.

"Yueyue, you did a great job." Shen Ting whispered in her ear, his tone full of love and appreciation.

Xiao Yue raised her head and looked into Shen Ting's deep eyes, her heart filled with gratitude.

However, Mark did not give up.

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Xiao Yue, do you think you can defeat me like this?" He gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare to make this evidence public, I guarantee that Xiao's company will fall into an unprecedented public opinion crisis!"

Xiao Yue met Mark's gaze without fear, a sneer on her lips.

But she knew that Mark's threat was not groundless.

The road ahead will be even more difficult...

"Really? Then let's give it a try." Xiao Yue picked up another document on the table and said slowly, "This document..."
