Lan Xing: "..."

Upon hearing Jian Ran’s words, Lan Xing immediately became unsteady and said with a trembling voice,

"That’s impossible... All the surveillance cameras were broken."

With that statement from Lan Xing, the whole room erupted with exclamations. She had essentially admitted it.

How could she know that the surveillance was broken?

Jian Ran glanced indifferently at the woman in front of her, gently swept the hair from her forehead behind her ear, and murmured,

"There’s something called a backup... The Gu Family has many backups you don’t know about, including surveillance.

But... it’s just that you are unaware. Moreover.

.. I think... there are also backup surveillance cameras in the monitoring room, so.

.. all the footage you destroyed is still accounted for. .. "

Having said that, Jian Ran stared piercingly at the woman before her and said,

"Lan Xing... you came to the Gu Family in the middle of the night to tamper with my computer... I think, you didn’t come to enjoy the flowers or inspect the work, right... Speak, what exactly was your purpose?"

Jian Ran’s angered rebuke startled Lan Xing, making her stagger. Lan Xing’s entire being stiffened, and she became somewhat incoherent.

"I... you... don’t slander me."

"Is that so? It just so happens that I have kept the computer... I think... the fingerprints on it, including those from opening the door... if truly necessary, could be collected for evidence. So, sorry, I never casually slander a good person."

If the other party is not a kind soul, pulling off a stunt without consequence isn’t bad either.

Playing mind games isn’t for just anyone, Jian Ran’s back was covered with sweat from the tension... but in front of Dong Qin and Lan Xing, she always maintained her composure, believing in her convictions.

After finishing speaking, Jian Ran curled a smile and looked directly at Lan Xing before her.

Dong Qin was annoyed that Lan Xing didn’t know how to stay calm and was so easily bluffed by Jian Ran within minutes.

The important thing is... these messes... Lan Xing did not think things through at all and even got caught, which was simply incompetent.

"Lan Xing, do you have anything else to say?"

"Jian Ran... you can only prove that I tampered with your computer, nothing more... you still plagiarized my work, and you are completely unfit to be the head of the Gu Family’s design department."

At this point, Lan Xing was clearly making a desperate attempt.

Jian Ran heard Lan Xing’s presumptuous words without much surprise and spoke softly,

"It’s a coincidence that over the weekend, I asked Secretary Zhou to display all of my design works from my university years, as well as yours throughout the years.

.. Keep in mind the time difference. I did not know you during my university years, and the works are your best, not something produced casually. "

The implication was clear: this was not an issue that could be dismissed as just glancing and copying.

Upon hearing Jian Ran’s words, Lan Xing caught her breath...

Jian Ran then returned to her spot and indicated for Secretary Zhou to continue.

Following the command of the president’s wife, Secretary Zhou stood up immediately, turned to Lan Xing, and displayed all of Lan Xing’s design works over the years, including Jian Ran’s works from her university days.

"Although the task was entrusted to me, I am just a secretary at the Gu Family... I am unfamiliar with both Miss Jian and Lan Xing, so I haven’t tampered with anything. A well-known company executive oversaw the validation process, ensuring the judging was credible."

After finishing, Secretary Zhou continued, "I sent the works of Miss Jian and Lan Xing to the European Designers Association for their assessment and identification... Here are the results they provided, which I have already translated into Chinese."
