Huang Zimei was startled. When she noticed that Su Xiaoxiao's hand was tightly gripping Nangong Yi's arm, her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at those hands.
"President, even though this is my first time taking meeting minutes, I know very well the harm a flawed contract can cause to the conglomerate. I would never make such a basic mistake." Su Xiaoxiao spoke with certainty, and the firm look on her face softened Nangong Yi's coldness somewhat.
It was actually his idea to arrange for Huang Zimei and Su Xiaoxiao to work together.
However, he never expected that this fool would dare to tamper with things right under his nose, and with such clumsy methods at that.
He glanced at his arm, which Su Xiaoxiao was still holding, and his mood wasn't as bad as before.
"Jinyang, pull up the hidden cameras!"
Hidden camera?
Huang Zimei's face turned ugly the moment she heard this.
She knew better than anyone whether there was a camera in the corner where they were taking notes.
But Nangong Yi's decision to have Dong Jinyang check the surveillance footage at this crucial moment suggests...
"Huang Zimei, don't you find this incredible?"
At first, Dong Jinyang didn't understand what was going on, but when she heard Su Xiaoxiao say that there was an extra zero in the contract, she knew who was behind it.
At that moment, a staff member walked in with a USB drive. At Nangong Yi's instruction, he projected the content captured by the hidden surveillance camera onto the large screen.
"Huang Zimei, I thought you had learned your lesson after yesterday's incident, but I didn't expect you to still be unrepentant today!"
"Was this a setup by you?"
When Su Xiaoxiao heard Dong Jinyang say this, she was very grateful to Nangong Yi for everything he had done for her, but eliminating one Huang Zimei did not mean there wouldn't be a second or a third...
Nangong Yi did not deny it. He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao calmly and handed the matter over to Dong Jinyang to handle.
Huang Zimei's mind was completely focused on the large screen in front of her. Her face was pale as she watched the footage of herself tampering with the screen, and the fear in her eyes was beyond words.
"I'm...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."
"Don't rush to deal with Assistant Huang, let me talk to him first."
Su Xiaoxiao didn't intend to sympathize with Huang Zimei, but she had her own ideas. After explaining to Dong Jinyang, she immediately ran out of the conference room.
However, she hadn't taken more than a few steps when she was suddenly pulled inside by a hand that reached out from the office next door.
"Don't move, it's me!"
As Su Xiaoxiao prepared to resist, Nangong Yi immediately spoke up to remind her, and the coldness on his face disappeared.
"You've come to beg me for mercy?"
"Half and half."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded without hiding anything, and only when he let go of her did she voice her concerns.
Nangong Yi naturally understood the reasoning behind her words, but he couldn't be by her side all the time.
“Anyone with a brain can see the principle of ‘making an example of others’,” Nangong Yi said with particular seriousness.
He would not give her another chance to go to Shan Jinxi. His woman must be protected by him!
"Also, you'd better find a way to stop the false rumors about you and Dong Jinyang right now. If my wife, Nangong Yi's wife, dares to climb over the wall behind my back, I'll tie her up and bring her back, imprisoning her in a gilded cage!"
Su Xiaoxiao was startled when she saw the burning gaze reflected in those sharp eyes.
She knew Nangong Yi wasn't joking with her, but for her to suddenly clarify her relationship with Dong Jinyang after Huang Zimei framed her would undoubtedly be a case of 'protesting too much'.
But Su Xiaoxiao didn't dare say this in front of him.
