Chapter 418: 459, I’ll treat you to a big meal tonight, how does that sound?

As they say, you can’t hide fire with paper. With such a big incident occurring, Bai Mingxuan naturally reported it to the higher-ups, and the CCTV monitoring matter quickly became known to everyone in the company.

Soon, the news that An Xiaoyu and her team’s design blueprints had been stolen spread.

Whispers filled the air.

However, it was clear that everyone was watching with curiosity, looking at An Xiaoyu with eyes full of sympathy.

Having design blueprints stolen is a big deal; this time, An Xiaoyu definitely lost face in front of so many people!

Some even whispered that someone must be green with envy, hence deliberately setting her up!

But who could have done such a despicable thing that is detrimental to oneself as well as to others?

After all, it couldn’t have been An Xiaoyu herself, so the remaining suspects... fell on Gu Xiaobei, Yu Zimo, and Wu Minli.

Bai Mingxuan called Gu Xiaobei, Wu Minli, and Yu Zimo to his office.

"Who was the last person in charge of the design drawings?"

"It was me," the speaker was Gu Xiaobei, "Director Bai, the theft of the design drawings clearly indicates there is a mole in our company!"

As she spoke, Gu Xiaobei’s gaze fell on Wu Minli.

Wu Minli’s face was taut, "Gu Xiaobei, I warn you, don’t spout nonsense without evidence!"

Gu Xiaobei snorted, "Oh, seems like someone has a guilty conscience! Did I name names?"

"You!"

"Enough!" Bai Mingxuan shouted angrily, "The person who did this knows who they are. By the time we finish work this evening, I expect that person to come forward and confess voluntarily, and perhaps there will be leniency. Otherwise, I will report directly to the police, and by then, the police won’t be as nice as I am."

Just at that moment, the phone on Bai Mingxuan’s office desk rang.

After listening to the call, Bai Mingxuan’s face suddenly cleared up, his eyes shining brightly.

"Okay, I got it, good... thank you!"

When Bai Mingxuan stepped out of his office, he was beaming with delight, making his way to the design department’s office.

"I just received a notification from Interstellar; An Xiaoyu’s design draft has been approved. Tomorrow, our company will go sign the contract with Interstellar!"

The office fell silent for a moment, then suddenly erupted into excitement.

Gu Xiaobei and Yu Zimo flopped onto An Xiaoyu, hugging her tightly.

"Xiaoyu, you are amazing, truly our lucky star!"

"Xiaoyu, I’m so happy! It’s like a turnaround from despair!"

...

Soon, Gu Xiaobei narrated the heroic acts of An Xiaoyu at the comparison meeting, and Yu Zimo even sent a video that she had recorded secretly of An Xiaoyu to the office group chat.

In the meeting, An Xiaoyu was so confident while presenting the design, her eyes harboring a hint of fierce determination.

In such a situation, many might feel nervous, but An Xiaoyu was composed and elegant, her every move exuding a charm that captivated others.

Often times, it is difficult for an unattractive woman to achieve success, but a beautiful woman who achieves success also attracts much controversy.

For instance, An Xiaoyu, who faced much criticism within the company; although many didn’t recognize her, didn’t understand her, still, they viewed her through prejudiced lenses because of those rumors and slanders.

However, this unexpected incident changed many people’s views of An Xiaoyu.

They began to suspect that someone out of envy had deliberately slandered and tainted An Xiaoyu’s reputation earlier on.

As for who that mastermind behind the scenes was? No need for guessing... they all knew in their hearts.

Wu Minli felt restless, as if people’s gazes held contempt when they looked at her.

Before the end of the workday, she finally knocked on the door of Bai Mingxuan’s office and handed in her letter of resignation.

An Xiaoyu received a call from Shen Yufeng.

"Wife, congratulations."

An Xiaoyu laughed.

"Mmhmm, thank you!"

"Just a verbal thanks? That’s not very sincere!" Shen Yufeng’s laughter came through.

An Xiaoyu blinked her eyes, thought for a moment, and said: "Well, how about I treat you to a big dinner tonight?"
