C52 Qian Xue Resigned

I didn't wait for Qian Xue to reply and continued to sneer.

"In this project, although you have only been responsible for the paperwork, as an important participant in the project, you have participated in each of our regular meetings, so you know very well who will be responsible for the budget statement and when it will be completed. So you used your expertise to enter into Ji Baihe or my computer to see if it is correct?"

Seeing this situation, Qian Xue also felt that she couldn't hide it anymore. She simply admitted everything generously, no longer appearing to be subservient. "Madam Ou, your guess is very accurate, but it seems like there isn't any evidence."

I had thought that Qian Xue, who had turned angry from embarrassment after being exposed to me, would have a deep hostility towards me, but her face, apart from a little unsightly, was still friendly to me.

"Because your job is always to do some paperwork at the place closest to Ou Jia Rui in the Secretariat, so you probably don't know how many people in the Ou Family's network security system have read important documents in the same company at a certain time. I've checked four people already to read that report."

My tone was as calm as possible, but I still couldn't help but clench my fists.

Qian Xue just raised her eyebrows. I continued, "When I saw that number, I had my suspicions towards many people and never thought that it would be you. It was only when I finished my work and went through the resumes of everyone in the secretariat that I found some suspicious points.

My eyes were fixed on my toes, my lashes drooping, and the sadness and disappointment I was showing were real.

"I'm sorry." Qian Xue's voice was still soft and gentle, but it had an extra sense of steadfastness and peace.

"Actually, I should have known earlier on that it was yours. Before leaving the finance department, Ji Baihe told me that she often sees you wandering around the CEO's office in the surveillance room. She's already been expelled, so there's no need to splash dirty water on you anymore, right?"

"Yes." Qian Xue nodded with a smile. Even I was at a loss for words by her calm reaction.

"I don't know what your intentions are, nor do I know who the person behind you is, but as a friend, I'm begging you, don't have any thoughts about this project today. This is the result of our entire team being enraged for such a long time, I absolutely can't let it be destroyed by you." In fact, what I was thinking was that I couldn't let Ochira bear this loss.

Qian Xue hesitated for a moment, then said, "I won't, and now that you know that I did all of this, I was thinking of using the same method to disrupt this collaboration, but I didn't expect that the Finance Department's Miss Ji would act faster than me, but what I didn't expect is that her goal was completely different from mine, and she just wanted to use it to attack you and me."

However, this adventure of hers, I'm afraid, will ruin her future prospects. Initially, based on her own ability, it was only a matter of time before she reached the top of the company. In my heart, I pity this beautiful girl.

But at the same time, she also felt a bit lucky that such an outstanding person had Ou Jia Rui in his heart. She had finally left.

When this thought surfaced, I started to despise myself a little. Could it be that I really had feelings other than gratitude and appreciation for Ou Jia Rui?

"I will tell Ou Jia Rui that I didn't see anything tonight. That sudden increase in the number of views, I can also say that it was because the manager of the Finance Department was in a hurry to leave during the audit and went to his laptop to eat and watch. I won't say that you aren't afraid of me or some other reason." I paused.

"It's because, as a friend, I hope you know what to choose."

"Alright, I'll be going home first. Be careful when you go back later." Qian Xue greeted me before turning around and leaving without any hesitation.

I was a little surprised by Qian Xue's decisiveness. I sat in the office, tidied up my emotions and left as well.

He walked out of his office and took out his cell phone to call Ojaru and tell him I was coming home.

"Hey, I'm done. I was just about to take a taxi home." I lied that I was going to work with Qian Xue to reconnect the paperwork that I had been told to stop halfway through so that I could regroup with another team.

"The work is done on your computer, right? There's nothing on Qian Xue that's related to this project, right?" I could tell that even though I had found the person who sent the email, Ocari still couldn't fully trust the staff who had handled the project.

Now, I know that trusting this thing is so fragile that I can't withstand a single blow. I trusted Qian Xue because of my first impression of her, so the final result gave me an important lesson.

"Don't worry, I've already dealt with it. I'm really hungry. I won't tell you for now. I'm going to take a taxi home to eat." I didn't want to talk about Qian Xue with O'Jia Rui. I thought my insistence on staying here alone was very unusual.

Who knew that Ou Jia Rui would give me another surprise and move. "You can take the elevator to the underground car park. I'll wait for you here. I'm worried about you going home alone at this late hour."

When the elevator went down to the second floor, I saw the black Audi.

The windows of the Audi were open, and the smoke from the starting point was rising. When I walked over, O'Jia Rui immediately threw away the cigarette in her hand. I noticed that a lot of cigarette butts had already been piled up beside the car.

I've been in the office for more than three hours, and here's where O'Jia Rui waited for me alone for more than three hours.

"Don't get in the car first." She opened all the windows and got out of the car herself. She handed me her coat and said, "There's still smoke in the car. We'll stay outside for a while before we go back."

"Alright."

I wrapped my arms tightly around O'Jia Rui's jacket. "By the way, when will our project be restarted?"

Let's start tomorrow, we can't afford to delay any longer. I have discussed with the higher-ups this afternoon to keep part of the person in charge of this project, then we can change the others to ensure that all the relevant personnel in the new team are trusted by the Euclidean family. Do you want to take a break or continue this project?

As I opened the door and got in the passenger seat, I said without thinking, "Of course I'm going to follow up. This is probably the biggest project I've done since I graduated."

Ou Jia Rui started the car. "Alright then, but there's one thing …"

Before he could finish his sentence, I took him over. "I know, but you have to take care of your body. Look at me now, I'm doing very well."

Ou Jia Rui smiled. "Alright, you're hungry. I'll tell my family to cook the old duck soup that you like."

We went home like an ordinary couple to enjoy our dinner and the few moments of leisure.

After a whole day of farce, I fell into a tired sleep. It was ten o'clock when I woke up the next morning.

I knew that it was once again Ochira who had secretly turned off my alarm clock.

After breakfast, I called O'Jia Rui. "Why did you turn off my alarm again?"

"You were too tired yesterday and needed a good night's sleep. Are you ready now? Should I ask Xuan Zi to come pick you up at home?" Ou Jia Rui's voice was gentle and warm.

By the time I arrived in a hurry, it was almost noon. Before I walked into the CEO's office, I intentionally glanced at Qian Xue's position in the secretariat.

Perhaps sensing my gaze, Qian Xue simultaneously lifted her head to look in my direction. I quickly walked into the CEO's office.

Not long after, Qian Xue knocked on the door to the CEO's office.

She held out an envelope with a letter of resignation. She even greeted me with a smile and a nod as she passed by.

"You want to resign?" Ou Jia Rui was arranging for Xuan Zi to reserve a place in a new restaurant. It was said that it was prepared by a three star Michelin chef. According to him, it was to celebrate my splendid battle of wits and courage yesterday.

"Yes, CEO." Qian Xue stood obediently in front of the desk.

The ignorant Ou Jia Rui thought that Qian Xue chose to resign because the matter of Ji Baihe framing her yesterday was too serious for her. She looked at me with an inquiring gaze: "Secretary Zhou said that you've always been very capable at work. I've planned to arrange for you to sit in her seat while she's waiting for delivery."

I don't know how sincere Ou Jia Rui's words were, but I naturally felt a bit nervous for the Ou family. If I didn't break the news about Qian Xue yesterday, then when I leave Ou family, as the Ou Jia Rui's personal secretary, besides the CEO, the person in the company who is the closest to the Ou family's secret will be a competitor placed in the Ou family.

"Thank you for your appreciation, Boss Ou. I just haven't fully understood some things, so it's not appropriate for me to work in the company right now." Qian Xue lowered her head and said in an obscure tone.

"Alright, remember to take care of the work that you haven't done yet."

"No problem, CEO. I finished all my work this morning and sent it to the corresponding person in charge's mailbox." Qian Xue's efficiency was much higher than I had expected. This meant that even though she was already very outstanding during the few years she had been working in the Ou Family, she was still concealing her strength.

Ou Jia Rui nodded her head in satisfaction. It seemed that she regretted losing such a talent, but after all, the Ou family had never lacked elites. "Alright, you can go to the Finance Department and settle your salary. Tell the Finance Department to keep working until this morning." To those who did not cause trouble for themselves, the Ou Clan was always very kind.

"Thank you, CEO Ou." Qian Xue looked at me again as she went out the door.

"That's not right. Ou Jia Rui, it seems that you, I know, never take the initiative to ask for a normal employee to leave." I asked as soon as Qian Xue closed the door.

Ou Jia Rui looked up and smiled at me. "It's possible. After all, she is the number one friend that you've known in the Ou family. Aren't you going to send her off?"
