Xie Lingyu said to the people behind her, "You all saw it. This is the person who switched the samples, causing our media team to lose a project and be fined by the company to compensate for the losses. Remember this culprit in the media team and get back to work."

"Director Xie, what's the rush? The matter isn't over yet, why are you going back to work?" Song Nuan smiled, her cheerful demeanor returning.

Xie Lingyu hated her nonchalant, smiling face the most. Every time she saw her, she wanted to slap her across the face and laugh, to see if she could still laugh!

"Go back, all of you!" Xie Lingyu ordered.

The media team members, though angry, dared not speak out and quietly withdrew.

Fang Yu closed the door behind her and then tossed the USB drive to Song Nuan.

"Sister Nuan, this is the real surveillance footage. The previous one was manipulated and incomplete."

Song Nuan's eyes narrowed as she scanned Xie Lingyu.

Fang Yu pointed to the man who delivered the USB drive: "I went to the monitoring room to check the video first. This man received a phone call in the middle, and then he processed the monitoring video a second time."

He panicked and retorted, "You're talking nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yulin was so angry that he was about to make a move, but was held back by the onlookers.

He then started cursing: "Do I even know you? Who the hell did you take bribes from to frame me like this?!"

Seeing that another argument was about to break out, Lu Ziyang said in a cold voice, "If you keep shouting, none of you will be allowed to work anymore."

The tense atmosphere instantly calmed down.

Song Nuan handed him the USB drive. With the experience from last time, this time she directly located the exact timeline and quickly found the footage of Zhang Yulin entering and leaving the restroom.

"Look!" Zhang Yulin couldn't wait to prove himself. "Someone must have taken my clothes and was wearing them. They're about my size and even wearing a hat and mask."

Things suddenly took a turn for the better.

To everyone's surprise, someone was impersonating Zhang Yulin, framing Song Nuan while making Zhang Yulin take the blame.

"What? If it's not someone from the logistics department, then who could it be?"

"Actually, thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. The logistics department and our media team have no grudge against each other, so why would they suddenly switch Song Nuan's sample? Since Zhang Yulin is innocent and not acting under someone's orders, then..."

"Could it have been done by someone from our media team?"

His words stirred up a huge wave.

Immediately, someone pointed at Xie Lingyu and said, "Looking at it this way, Director Xie's build is very similar to Zhang Yulin's."

Xie Lingyu's panic was visible to the naked eye.

"Are you all too idle? You even have time to solve cases here! I'm usually so busy I don't even have time to spare. How could I have time to steal clothes from the logistics room and switch samples!"

Song Nuan smiled faintly at her, "Director Xie, I didn't say it was you."

Xie Lingyu's expression changed drastically. Knowing she couldn't win the argument with Song Nuan, she simply left under the pretext of work.

Things have escalated to this point, how could Song Nuan let her leave so easily? "Director Xie, don't you owe me an explanation?"

Xie Lingyu said calmly with a cold face, "There are so many people in the company with similar body types. You can't just say this person is me because of personal grudges. Song Nuan, if you can't produce any evidence, then shut up!"

She reviewed the surveillance footage throughout and found no evidence that Song Nuan entered the logistics room. As long as Song Nuan has no evidence, there's nothing she can do.

Song Nuan remained expressionless.

Xie Lingyu's face showed a hint of smugness. "No evidence? Then everyone can leave!"

The farce temporarily came to an end, the onlookers were immediately dispersed, and Zhang Yulin went to the personnel department to re-complete his onboarding procedures.

Only Song Nuan, Lu Ziyang, and Fang Yu remained in the lounge.

Fang Yu was furious. "It must have been Director Xie who did it. I saw her leave that day, and now that I think about it, the timing makes perfect sense."

"Do you have any evidence?" Lu Ziyang asked lazily.

Fang Yu: "...No."

Despite her anger, Song Nuanqi was helpless. "Fang Yu, Xie Lingyu will definitely try every means to target you next. Which department do you want to go to? I'll transfer you there to avoid the limelight for now."

"No need, Sister Song. The Song family is corrupt from top to bottom, and there are all sorts of problems in other departments as well."

She said that, and Song Nuan respected her decision.

After Fang Yu left, Lu Ziyang looked at Song Nuan, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

He spent a few days at the Song family and almost figured out the company's culture and atmosphere. The upper management was greedy and incompetent, which led to the fatigue and slackness of the lower-level employees. The whole company was filled with a decadent atmosphere of intrigue and backstabbing.

A company that doesn't focus on its business and operations can only eke out a living in the market.

Song Nuan is not suitable for this place.

"Nuan Nuan," he suddenly called to her, "Do you really want a Song family like this?"

Song Nuan did not answer him immediately.

After a long pause, she said, "It's not that I absolutely have to have it, but the Song family business was originally left to me by my grandfather. I can give it up, but I can't be forced to give it up."

Lu Ziyang smiled and said, "I understand."

Qin Guangsheng met Lin Jingwen of Berlin Jewelry.

"Are you President Qin?" Lin Jingwen pushed up her glasses, her tone polite but with a hint of surprise. "Song Nuan and I talked last night. I thought she would come in person today."

Qin Guangsheng did not mention that Song Nuan was no longer with the Qin family, but simply smiled and said, "If Nuan Nuan has something to do, I will take care of it for her."

Lin Jingwen understood and nodded.

Ultimately, they were there to discuss cooperation. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Qin Guangsheng handed over a product brochure, introducing Qin's services and featured products.

Lin Jingwen didn't just skim through it; she read it very carefully.

She then smiled politely and said, "President Qin, Qin's factory production line is indeed excellent, but our new jewelry series has high requirements for polishing technology, which Qin's cannot currently meet."

Although Qin Guangsheng was prepared, he still couldn't help but feel regretful upon hearing these words.

However, she quickly adjusted her emotions.

In business, it's good to win, but there's no need to push things to the limit if you can't. Who knows if there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future?

At least they exchanged contact information with Lin Jingwen.

When Qin Guangsheng left the Berlin Group, he didn't notice the supercar parked across the street.

Wearing sunglasses, Song Ningxue bit her lip so hard she almost bled when she saw that familiar figure. "That bitch Song Nuan actually hooked up with someone from Berlin Jewelry!"

Recalling what Qin Yuchuan had said yesterday, Song Ningxue's expression darkened even further.

Last night, after Qin Guangsheng and Song Nuan left, Qin Yuchuan stayed behind, but his mood was not high.

After the meal, Song Ningxue had a long talk with him.

Only then did he learn that Qin Yuchuan had given Song Nuan 80 million yuan some time ago, and now he had almost no money left, while Qin Guangsheng was still delaying handing over the company to him.

They only say it will be soon, but they don't give a specific time.

Qin Yuchuan had little working capital, so he had no way to win over the Qin family shareholders.

Although Qin Yuchuan didn't say it, Song Ningxue understood the implication in his words: he was blaming her!

She's to blame for transferring 80 million from Song Nuan's Swiss account.

Even though she was extremely unwilling, in order to calm Qin Yuchuan's restless heart, Song Ningxue had no choice but to take out the 80 million and return it to Qin Yuchuan.

It's all Song Nuan's fault!

As if struck by a thought, Song Ningxue's lips curled into a cold smile.

Since Song Nuan wanted to help Qin Guangsheng secure the cooperation, she was determined not to let Song Nuan have her way!
