Page 670 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Dong Qin said so, and the other employees of the design department exchanged glances with each other.

The affairs within those wealthy families really are incredibly chaotic.

Secretary Zhou’s lips curled slightly, feeling exhausted at having to cope with Dong Qin’s difficulties...

Jian Ran cast a fleeting glance at Dong Qin’s haughty demeanor and said softly.

"Let’s begin. I think, Mrs. Dong speaking ill of the absent like this is not a good example to set."

Jian Ran ignored Dong Qin’s resentful and angry gaze, stood up from her seat, looked at everyone calmly, and said softly.

"First of all, I’m very sorry for delaying everyone’s time, for convening this meeting for a second time for the selection of the head of the design department, even though.

.. it was not my wish. I have been framed.

.. but still, I owe you all an apology. Today, I will explain all the issues quickly and concisely and also ask you all to keep an eagle eye out to vindicate me. "

After speaking, Jian Ran bent over in a bow, expressing her apology.

The people looked at each other, their minds like scales, unsure of which way the balance would tip.

Between Lan Xing and Jian Ran, one could tell their character from their past interactions at a glance.

Jian Ran was neither overbearing nor subservient, humble and polite.

While Lan Xing was haughty and overbearing, having offended many people in the past.

However... most of the people were just there for the excitement, secretly thinking that Jian Ran would surely be defeated, especially since Mrs. Dong was Lan Xing’s backer.

After all... she was Gu Mochen’s stepmother, a director of the Gu Family.

Alas... poor Jian Ran, such misfortune.

...

Lan Xing, seeing Jian Ran’s calm and composed manner, clenched nervously, hoping that no trace would be left for Jian Ran to discover.

After all, Jian Ran was not an easy adversary to deal with.

...

"Some time ago, I went on a business trip to Italy. When I returned, I found that the computer I had been using was broken. I felt there was a problem right away, so I contacted Xiaozhang from the technical department to repair the computer. Today, I also asked Xiaozhang to come..."

After finishing speaking, Jian Ran gestured for Xiaozhang, who was sitting at the back of the meeting room, to come forward. She pursed her lips, her beautiful eyes as gentle as water, full of expression.

"Xiaozhang is one of the best in the technical department at fixing computers, and he has been working at Gu Family for nearly five years. I think many of you here have asked him to repair your computers or have had some interaction with him."

Jian Ran brought up Xiaozhang’s status within the technical department and his tenure at Gu Family.

The persuasive power of one’s words is crucially dependent on their ability and duration of work.

The people were convinced by Xiaozhang as a personal witness; there was indeed nothing to question.

Jian Ran saw that Lan Xing and Dong Qin obviously had nothing to say and softly stated.

"Heaven rewards the diligent, and Xiaozhang truly is a master in the design department.

My computer crashed after someone with malicious intent inserted a virus-infected USB drive, but.

.. the hard drive was not damaged. Fortunately, my hand-drawn designs were not only saved on the C drive but also backed up on the D drive.

Xiaozhang took out the D drive alone and installed it into a new computer, and just like that, the designs were recovered. "

After speaking, Jian Ran looked at Lan Xing with a gentle smile, then turned to Xiaozhang and softly said.

"Please demonstrate for everyone."

"Of course, Miss Jian."

Xiaozhang followed Jian Ran’s instructions and swiftly turned on the projector and computer in front of him, then accurately found Jian Ran’s hand-drawn drafts.
