Chapter 144 No bacteria can survive her saliva.
Liang Yanchuan politely pushed her away, "This is a restricted area of the exhibition hall, don't wander around. Why didn't you ask your brother to hold you by the rope?"
Wen Lingxue ignored his sarcasm, pushing him aside as she asked, "There's so much smoke here, what happened to the people inside?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd she had drawn around the corner saw the severely deformed door behind Liang Yanchuan.
Wen Lingxue was happy.
Even if nothing happened between Ji Ying and Liang Yizhi, as long as they walked out of here disheveled, Gu Yanchen would be officially labeled a cuckold.
She didn't believe Gu Yanchen could endure such humiliation. If she could use this to get him to deal with the Liang family, it would weaken his power. In the end, she and Gu Yi could attack him from both inside and outside, making him a man who needed to rely on her, and then she could get him.
This plan, which aims to kill two birds with one stone, must not fail today.
However, when the crowd gathered at the entrance of the experience center, they only saw a mess inside caused by a small explosion, and there wasn't a single person in sight.
"Mr. Liang, is your company's smart home system malfunctioning?" A senior executive looked at Liang Yanchuan and questioned, "Black Star's product quality doesn't seem as reliable as advertised."
But before Liang Jian could answer, Ji Ying's voice came from afar, "Black Star's smart home system is working fine."
She changed her clothes, and no one else noticed, but Gu Yanchen knew immediately that something had changed.
Wen Lingxue smiled and continued, "Sister-in-law, what were you and Mr. Liang doing inside just now?"
Ji Ying raised an eyebrow. "You've been saying that Mr. Liang and I were together ever since we were outside. How can you be so sure? Which eye did you use to see that?"
Wen Lingxue's face turned pale.
Why did they retreat so quickly?
Impossible!
Just as Wen Lingxue was about to speak, Ji Ying gave her no more chances to speak.
She shouted, "Half an hour ago, someone accessed the furniture store's backend control system through the on-site mainframe, causing the program to malfunction and trapping me inside while I was checking the battery modules. I had no choice but to blast my way out. I have reason to suspect that Mr. Liang is facing a business espionage operation against him."
Upon hearing this, Liang Jian quickly replied, "Such a thing actually happened? Who is it?"
“It’s her!” Ji Ying pointed at Wen Lingxue.
“You have to take responsibility for saying such things. Either you check the surveillance footage to prove me wrong, or you publicly apologize to me for your slander.”
Wen Lingxue had already turned off all the surveillance cameras near the experience center, and she was certain that Ji Ying had no evidence to offer.
Ji Ying said definitively, "I believe the USB drive containing the data is still on you."
Wen Lingxue was startled at first, but then she smiled.
"How could I have that on me? Besides, you have no right to search me."
"She doesn't have it, but others do."
Liang Yizhi's voice rang out from behind the crowd, and everyone instinctively stepped aside to make way.
The man's suit was as sharp as ever, exactly the same as when he entered the experience center.
His gaze toward Wen Lingxue was so indifferent, as if she were about to disappear from this world.
Wen Lingxue forced a smile. "Mr. Liang wouldn't search me just because he's biased towards Miss Ji Ying, would he? As fellow women, such treatment is probably unfair, and besides, you don't seem to have the right to do so."
Liang Yizhi didn't bother to give her a single extra word.
Standing nearby, Xue Qin chimed in, "It wasn't us who suggested the body search; it was the police who deemed it necessary."
Two policemen walked over in the direction he was pointing.
Wen Lingxue was extremely surprised.
One of the policewomen stepped forward, looked her up and down, and then took a USB drive out of her suit jacket pocket.
The entire audience erupted in uproar.
"This isn't mine, this is...this is..."
The only person who had physical contact with her just now was Liang Yanchuan, so he must have been the one who slipped the USB drive in then.
Wen Lingxue never expected that Ji Ying would turn around and scheme against her.
The policewoman said sternly, "The technical department will conduct a professional assessment of the USB drive's data source, and the facts will be established. Black Star Group has officially reported you to the police, accusing you of stealing trade secrets. Please cooperate with the investigation and come with us."
“Brother…” Wen Lingxue looked at Gu Yanchen for help.
However, Gu Yanchen simply said, "Let the police decide what is right and wrong."
Wen Lingxue was speechless and was taken away by the police.
Ji Yingwei smiled almost imperceptibly. Even Wen Lingxue, who had no cannon fodder available, would be covered in wounds.
Liang Yizhi glanced lightly at Gu Yanchen, "Even when President Gu's subordinates 'borrow' technology, they are so careless. Could it be that Chenxi's core technology is all 'patched up' from other people's code?"
His words elicited a burst of laughter.
Gu Yanchen subconsciously looked at Ji Ying, only to see her discussing a solution with Liang Yanchuan in a low voice, completely unaware of his current embarrassment. An indescribable bitterness welled up in his heart.
The press conference ended unexpectedly.
Han Bin said, "In the end, it was not successfully completed."
“Although the process was interrupted, the advertising effect was maximized, and Chenxi Group also wanted to steal the technology…” Liang Jian chuckled twice in a low voice, “We’re not at a loss this time.”
As he spoke, he looked around and asked, "Where's Ji Ying?"
Han Bin recalled for a moment, "Upstairs in the lounge, they were probably thanking your second uncle."
In the temporary rest room, Liang Yizhi's finger wound was quite deep and needed to be disinfected before being stitched up.
Looking at his gaping wound, Ji Ying unconsciously complained, "But couldn't you have just not used so much force?"
Liang Yizhi lifted his eyelids to look at her, a very faint, mischievous smile playing on his lips. "If I don't use my strength, will I make you happy?"
Ji Ying, "..."
Just then, the doctor whispered, "Just to be on the safe side, you'll need a tetanus shot too."
Liang Yizhi's gaze remained fixed on Ji Ying's flushed face as he answered the doctor with a hint of mockery, "No need. No bacteria can survive her saliva."
He paused for a moment, then deliberately lowered his voice and said in a serious tone, "Director Ji personally 'sterilizes' it, which can eliminate all viruses."
The air froze instantly.
The tweezers in the doctor's hand fell "clatter" into the tray, and Xue Qin closed his eyes.
If he could, he would also like to shut his ears.
Ji Ying was furious and grabbed a piece of gauze to cover his mouth.
"If you speak again, the doctor will sew your mouth shut."
Liang Yizhi looked at her, his gaze so deep it seemed to draw her in.
Something subtle was spreading between the two of them.
Xue Qin and the doctor simultaneously looked away.
Just then, Ji Ying's phone rang.
She gathered her thoughts, glanced at the text message, hesitated for a moment, then put down the gauze and said, "I'm leaving."
Liang Yizhi looked up. "My injuries haven't even been treated yet, and you're just going to abandon me like this?"
"It's urgent."
Ji Ying pursed her lips, picked up her bag, and turned to leave.
The lounge fell silent immediately.
Xue Qin tried to de-escalate the situation, saying, "It's possible that something really has happened at the company..."
Liang Yizhi did not respond.
The wound was treated quickly.
He went downstairs and left. As soon as he reached the parking lot, he saw Ji Ying get into Liang Jian's car.
Liang Yizhi's gaze darkened for a moment. Was Liang Jian her urgent matter?
