156 She Will Never Be My Competitor, Ever. (1/2)

”Lu Man,” Dai Yiran pulled her over, smiling. ”What is your proposal? You're so confident that it will be approved?”

”I've prepared two proposals just in case. The one on the computer is the one that I'm most satisfied with. The other was the initial draft that I had just submitted. The one that I'm most satisfied with can't be recovered, so never mind, beggars can't be choosers, I'll just have to use the other one.” Lu Man appeared unhappy. It was obvious that she was not satisfied with the one she had just submitted.

Dai Yiran's eyes glinted. ”So you're saying, that the one that's on your computer is different from the one you have just submitted?”

Lu Man did not deny or agree, but Dai Yiran took her silence as agreement.

She instantly let out a sigh of relief.

While Lu Man was pulled aside by Dai Yiran, Ye Xiaoxing tried to take the pen drive with the virus away.

Yet, who knew that Lu Man would turn around right after speaking, and stretch out her hand, grabbing grabbed the pen drive.

Ye Xiaoxing was dumbfounded, her mouth agape. ”Lu Man, since this pen drive isn't yours, why did you take it?”

”Then, is it yours?” Lu Man asked, her eyes narrowed.

”Of course not,” Ye Xiaoxing hurriedly denied.

”Then why do you care why I'm taking it away?” Lu Man threw the question back at her and placed the pen drive in her bag.

”But this isn't yours,” Ye Xiaoxing looked at her, confused.

Dai Yiran quietly scolded her as an idiot. Was Ye Xiaoxing trying to tell the whole world that this pen drive was related to her!

”Xiaoxing is probably trying to help you check what is going on with this pen drive,” Dai Yiran hastily said.

”Right, right!” Ye Xiaoxing finally reacted, anxiously trying to salvage the situation. ”I know someone who's extremely skilled in this area. I'll take it and help you get it checked.”
