The project department's meeting room was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.

Qiao Ruyi sat at the top, her eyes sweeping over everyone below, finally landing on Qin Man. She was so nervous that she didn't even have the courage to look her in the eye, let alone act aggressively in front of her like before.

On the other side, Guan Mei wanted to hide her head in her neck, as if she was afraid of being discovered by her.

At this time, the two of them knew that they were afraid of being in trouble with her.

"First of all, I want to apologize to everyone."

Qiao Ruyi played with the pen in her hand and spoke calmly, "I asked that the news of my marriage to your CEO Ling be kept secret. Since we all work together, I wanted to get along with everyone as colleagues. I didn't expect that there would be so many misunderstandings during this period, and I also heard a lot of interesting gossip."

Her tone of voice was calm, yet she exuded an aura of authority that made the people below afraid to respond.

Only Xiao Ai, suppressing the corners of her mouth that were about to turn up, looked at Qiao Ruyi with stars in her eyes, with an expression of revenge.

"But what's past is past. I hope I won't hear those rumors again in the group."

Hearing this, everyone quickly replied, "Yes, Madam President!"

Qiao Ruyi also heard some people breathing a sigh of relief.

At this time, Ye Qing looked at her, "Ms. Cho, there is one more thing. Designers Qin Man and Guan Mei have just submitted their resignations to me."

"Oh? Really?" Qiao Ruyi glanced at the two of them. "I remember Qin Man put a lot of effort into joining LS Group. And Guan Mei, didn't you quit your GM job to join LS Group?"

"I, I, I just feel..." Guan Mei blushed and lowered her head, "I feel like I'm not suitable for working here."

"Me, me too." Qin Man replied.

"Is it because you're not suitable, or because you don't dare?" Qiao Ruyi stared straight at Qin Man. "If I were targeting you, I would have a hundred reasons to fire you two. But I didn't, because I wanted to see how far you two could go under my nose."

After saying that, she casually threw the pen in her hand onto the table, making a crisp sound.

The voice was not too loud, but it sent a warning signal in the serious meeting room.

The people present were so shocked that they didn't even dare to breathe.

The smile on Qiao Ruyi's face faded. "Do you want to say it yourself, or do you want me to say it for you?"

"Mrs. Ling..." Qin Man smiled awkwardly, "I, I don't understand what you are saying."

Qiao Ruyi stared at her, her smiling eyes full of awe, which frightened Qin Man so much that her hands were shaking.

Still playing dumb until now, Qiao Ruyi turned to look at Guan Mei, "If she doesn't tell you, you tell her."

Guan Mei trembled with fear, stood up shakily, and lowered her head. "I, I... I'm telling the truth. Designer Qin Man stole the design draft she used for the interview from Director Qiao! Not only that, she also stole the design draft she used to design the show!"

After Guan Mei finished speaking, all the colleagues present were surprised.

"Guan Mei, when I asked you about this before, didn't you say that Qiao Ruyi plagiarized Qin Man?" Ye Qing stared at her coldly and asked, "Why did you lie in the first place?"

"Because it was Qin who threatened me!" Guan Mei's eyes were red. She didn't dare to look up at others and spoke timidly, "She said that Director Qiao had been kicked out of the project department. If I didn't help her lie, she would make me unable to get along. I suffered too much bullying from her, so I had no choice but to help her lie..."

"Guan Mei, what nonsense are you talking about!" Qin Man saw Guan Mei spill all the beans and stood up anxiously. "We're both about to resign, why are you still making up these stories to frame me?"

Even when facing death, he still wanted to silence Guan Mei by resigning. Qiao Ruyi smiled coldly, "Qin Man, let me ask you one more question. Do you admit that you plagiarized me?"

Qin Man's eyes dodged, and she hesitated for a few seconds. "I didn't plagiarize you. Even though you are the president's wife, you can't accuse me of something without evidence, right?"

"You want evidence, right?"

Qiao Ruyi nodded and looked at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing immediately turned on the projector, and the screen showed the design manuscripts flipped over one by one.

Qin Man stared at the manuscripts. They were almost identical to the manuscripts she had copied from Qiao Ruyi, but what were the differences?

Then the drawing was enlarged, and she suddenly saw clearly that this drawing was even older, and -

Signed in the lower right corner!

If you don’t look carefully, you can’t see the signature: Ms. Cho, June 8, 2017!

"You copied this design draft for the interview, right?"

Qiao Ruyi smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you that the design you copied from me wasn't even my first draft. The real first draft was right now, in 2017. You used my scrapped draft from college to knock on the door of LS Group. Qin Man, does this mean that your design skills are not even as good as mine when I was in college?"

Qin Man stared at the drawing on the screen, her face turning pale and blue.

Then Ye Qing released the second video.

The video shows a quiet and deserted night. The young girl stands at the door of the "designer director's" office, skillfully presses the password on the door, and pushes the door open.

Then she quickly pulled out the drawing from the drawer and took a quick photo with her cell phone.

The last scene stops at the girl's delicate face.

Guan Mei stared at the screen intently, her breath suddenly choking.

It's her! The person in the picture is her!

This is the video of her breaking into Qiao Ruyi's office and stealing the design draft!

It turns out that it was photographed as early as that day!

"And you, Guan Mei, you blame me for not giving you a chance, but Guan Mei, I've given you plenty of chances." Qiao Ruyi looked at her with indifferent eyes, "It was you who didn't cherish them time and time again. Not only did you help Qin Man plagiarize, you even tried to get close to President Ling. What? Do you want to live off your youth?"

Qiao Ruyi's words made Guan Mei blush. At this moment, she and Qin Man were standing in the huge office, in the public eye, like clowns who had been stripped naked, without a trace of shame.

"Resign?" Qiao Ruyi laughed. "It's not easy to resign with a clear conscience after what you've done."

She looked at Ye Qing, "Manager Ye, how should the group deal with their behavior?"

Ye Qing said, "People with bad moral character should be fired and banned from the industry."

block!

Qin Man was so frightened that her legs went limp and she fell into the chair.

She has been doing design for so many years. If she is banned by the industry, how will she make a living?

Guan Mei's face was also pale, and tears fell from her eyes.

All these years of hard work have been in vain.

"Okay, let's do it."

Qiao Ruyi looked at the two people's expressions and twirled the pen in her hand with satisfaction. "If anyone in the group has the same devious intentions as them in the future, the consequences will be the same as theirs. They will be the rats crossing the street that everyone in the industry will shout and beat."
