C72 (1/2)

Hearing the director's words, Qiao Anyun was stunned.

One second, two seconds …

She did not speak, and the Prefect of Police did not press her. He waited patiently for Joanna to explain himself.

After a moment of silence, Qiao Anjiao opened his mouth and calmly said, ”I can only say that I have never done this before.”

The Director was rather pleased with this fact. However, before he made things clear, he still did not intend to show some of his likes and dislikes, lest they affect his judgement.

”Qiao Anyun, it's not that you said that you didn't do it, but others will believe you.” The director said to her with a serious expression.

”What good will it do me?” ”The design was originally mine. Why would I sell it to someone else?” asked Qiao.

The director was silent and declined to comment. After a while he said to Joanna, ”If you want people to believe you, you have to at least show evidence.”

”Then you have to give me time to find the evidence, right?”

”We need an explanation as soon as possible.” The director thought for a moment and said, ”At most three days. If you can't find any evidence that has nothing to do with you, regardless of whether you are innocent or not, I can only deal with you.”

Joanna nodded and said firmly, ”Okay, three days! I will prove my innocence. ”

Although Qiao Yifan still didn't know what to do, she couldn't allow others to dirty her like this.

All the way out of the director's office, she thought, this started with that leaked email. The email was hers, the IP address was hers, and the design concept was the document she kept in her computer. She wrote it down herself …

There was something fishy going on inside and out. Who was the one who was going to do this to her?

The colleagues who walked in from the corridor did not greet her. Quite a few people knew that the Director had called Qiao Anxiao over to the office. At this sensitive time, someone was summoned by the Director, and that person was either a leaker or a suspect.

Qiao Anxiao bitterly smiled. The direction of the wind in the workplace had become really fast. When the situation got out of hand, there would be people trying to get close to them and flatter them. When something happened, they would immediately wish that they did not know you and would need to step on you to vent their hatred.

”Ai …” He really did not expect it to be Qiao Anxiao! Why do you think she is? The company has already accepted her ideas, what else is there for her to be unhappy about? ”

”What do you know!?” This Qiao Anzhi is not simple, maybe he did it on purpose! ”

”I don't think so. ”Don't you forget what happened last time? Wasn't she wrongly accused as well …”

This discussion was completely listened to by Qiao Anjiao and she was still somewhat gratified. At least there was someone who believed her and that was not bad.

For the first time, she felt like she had a long way to go back to the office. When she reached the door, she saw Wang Chao standing there, as if he was waiting for her.

When she saw Wang Chao, she immediately became listless.

”Sister Shan … ”I'm sorry.”

”Why apologize?” ”Apologizing means that you did.”

”I did not! ”I just feel that I have failed to live up to your trust in me …”

Joanna was disappointed that Wang was so trusting of her and that the Prefect of Police valued her ideas, but she had never expected such a thing to happen.

If she had been more careful, this might not have happened.

”Since there isn't any, I will think of a way to prove it. Self-pity is useless.” ”If you can't even stand up for yourself, then it's useless.”

Qiao Yifan looked up at her in surprise and asked, ”You believe me?”

”It's useless for me to believe you. I want everyone to believe you.” Wang Chao paused before continuing, ”The company has dealt with this matter. Although this matter has yet to be determined, you are still the most suspect, so in the next few days, you don't need to come to the company anymore.”

Although Qiao Anxiao was very sad, he had no choice but to accept this kind of treatment.

That afternoon, Qiao Anxiao returned home. Seeing her return, the butler was somewhat surprised and asked, ”Madam, you came back so early today?”

Qiao Anxiao was thinking about something, but he did not hear the butler say anything. He absent-mindedly went upstairs.

She went to see Bean... It had grown up again, and had gained weight. Also … Eating and sleeping all day long was hard even if he wasn't fat.

Bean saw her, leaned over to her and sniffed, then curled up at her feet and stopped.

Qiao Anxiao squatted down and picked it up. He smiled bitterly and said, ”You're really getting heavier and heavier …”

The little bean made a ”meow” sound. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws as if it was very dissatisfied with her words.

”It's better to be a cat like you... To be carefree, the hearts of people are truly too complicated, living is truly tiring. ” Qiao Anzhi sighed faintly. He did not hear the footsteps behind him.

She was startled and relieved to be suddenly hugged from behind. At home, who else could it be other than Fu Siming?

”Why did you come back?”

”Nothing today.” Fu Siming lightly replied.

Actually, he did not tell the truth, but he would definitely not tell Qiao Anxiao. He came back on purpose because he knew that something had happened to her and was worried about her.

To that end, he had also postponed two meetings.

”Why did you come back so early?” He wanted to see if Joanna would tell him.
