Chapter 54 Admitting the Mistake

The reflection from the computer screen made it difficult to see his own actions clearly.

Therefore, Luo Ziyu didn't worry at all and shamelessly persisted.

Wen Yan truly hadn't expected Luo Ziyu to be so shameless.

Conversely, Luo Ziyu addressed the crowd, "I arrived before Wen Yan. You all know what kind of person I am. Wang Rui is the current dark horse. Even if I did this, why would Wang Rui agree? Wouldn't it ruin her own reputation?"

His indignant words made everyone fall into thought.

This statement seemed to have merit.

Wang Rui's actions couldn't be explained otherwise.

Seeing everyone fall silent, Luo Ziyu glanced at Wen Yan triumphantly.

"Wen Yan, you want to frame me. Everyone has eyes, they won't believe you," Luo Ziyu deliberately rubbed salt into her wounds.

Nofia also spoke indifferently, "So, are all your company's employees this talented? Staging such a grand drama by themselves."

Lin Fang immediately said, "I'm sorry, Sister Nuo. I'll have her leave right away. Regarding the breach of contract fees, I'll have someone handle it to the end."

After speaking, she looked at Wen Yan arrogantly, "What are you still standing there for?"

"Sister Fang, I think I've made myself very clear. I am the company's employee, and I have absolutely done nothing to betray the company. Why don't you believe me?"

"I gave you a day. With the evidence you have, who would believe you!" Lin Fang scoffed.

Wen Yan clenched her phone, looking at this group of people, disappointment surfacing in her eyes.

Under the pressure of power, how insignificant an individual was!

"Alright, Wen Yan, don't waste everyone's time. If you truly believe Wang Rui plagiarized you, then sue her!" Lin Fang continued, urging her on.

Everyone looked at Wen Yan with contempt.

It was as if they felt a single bad apple had spoiled the whole barrel.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Suddenly, a female voice broke the silence. A woman rushed over, grabbing Wen Yan's hand.

Seeing a familiar face, Wen Yan was surprised, "It's you!"

Wang Rui!

The person who was arrogant yesterday had undergone a 360-degree change today.

Wang Rui looked at her with immense guilt, "Wen Yan, I'm sorry. I plagiarized your work. I was momentarily confused. I deserve to die!"

As she spoke, she suddenly knelt down.

Everyone was stunned by this scene.

What kind of devilish development was this!

Luo Ziyu rubbed her eyes, thinking Wang Rui must be crazy. Nofia also frowned.

"Miss Wang, were you... threatened by someone?" Nofia asked with concern.

Meeting Nofia's gaze, Wang Rui trembled.

"I..." She dared not look her in the eye.

But thinking of the company's pressure, she had to say, "I wasn't threatened. I admit, my work was indeed plagiarized from Wen Yan!"

Having become a dark horse in the design industry, Wang Rui had paid unknown prices behind the scenes. If those were exposed, her life would be ruined.

Wen Yan was also surprised by Wang Rui's sudden change, but her expression remained stern, "Since you admit it, tell me how you got my design draft!"

"Okay," Wang Rui said, "I was working that day when someone suddenly sent me a design draft. I thought it was beautiful, so I asked who designed it. The person didn't say, only that I could use it. I thought they were selling it to me, so I paid for it, only to realize later that it was your design draft!"

"Do you remember that person's contact information?"

"I do. It's this number!" Wang Rui took out her phone and pointed to a phone number. Wen Yan immediately dialed it.

In the quiet environment, Luo Ziyu's phone rang soon after.

Everyone looked at her.

Luo Ziyu held her phone, her face pale.

"I... it's not like that, it's not," Luo Ziyu quickly explained.

Wang Rui, however, shouted, "It's this voice! It was this voice that contacted me back then!"

This statement instantly plunged Luo Ziyu into a quagmire.

Wang Rui had already confessed, so what else was there for everyone to doubt?

Coupled with the surveillance footage from earlier, it was clear that Luo Ziyu was caught red-handed.

Everyone was truly surprised that such a malicious person could exist among their colleagues.

Selling a colleague's design draft and then acting like a good Samaritan.

Lin Fang also looked disappointed, "Luo Ziyu, did you really do it?"

"I... I didn't, I didn't do it on purpose," Luo Ziyu knew she couldn't explain herself, and choked out, "I was just momentarily misguided. Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, isn't that good?"

"Is it cleared up? Are you talking to yourself! Don't you know how serious plagiarism is?" Wen Yan said coldly.

"But now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, Wen Yan, please forgive me. I was just momentarily jealous, and besides, I didn't actually harm you."

"No, let's handle it according to company regulations!"

Wen Yan said indifferently, then looked at Nofia and the project director.

"I used to respect Miss Nuo greatly," she said, shaking her head and leaving.

Wang Rui followed her, begging for her forgiveness.

Wen Yan stated she needed a few days to consider.

Nofia stood rooted to the spot. That remark and look seemed to have placed her on the pillory.

Such a look was not something a mere junior designer should dare to show her!

The project director was also extremely awkward. Who would have thought the outcome of this incident would be like this?

She had guessed that she would be punished if the higher-ups found out, but she hadn't expected to be summoned to the CEO's office with Nofia as soon as she arrived at the company.

Nofia, seeing An Xileng behind the desk, wanted to act cute.

"Brother An~"

"CRACK!"

A glass of water was violently smashed to the ground, shattering into pieces!

Both of them were startled.

An Xileng's icy voice emerged, "Whose idea was this?"

He meant, who had the idea to cause trouble at Xinghua.

The project director wisely remained silent.

Because with An Xileng's question, she also suddenly came to her senses. Nofia never interfered in company matters, but this time she had suddenly investigated this matter. If it were a coincidence, she didn't believe it.

They were all people who had been in society for many years. This time, Nofia wasn't chosen, but an intern designer from Xinghua was. As women, she was surely jealous.

The director secretly regretted why she hadn't investigated clearly at the time.

Nofia met An Xileng's cold, bloodthirsty gaze, knowing she couldn't hide it any longer, "It was me. The project had problems, and I happened to know about it. I didn't want to lose your company's interests."

An Xileng said nothing.

His gaze was heart-stopping.

She knew such petty tricks couldn't be hidden from An Xileng.

"I, I just wanted to teach her a lesson. Let her know her place!" Nofia couldn't help but say.

A book was suddenly thrown out, grazing her shoulder and hitting the wall behind her heavily.
