Chapter 357 Who betrayed me?
Lan Qiuru explained to her, "According to your arrangement, we have installed surveillance cameras in every corner of the laboratory. The surveillance shows that the person who broke in and stole the technical documents was Mr. Lu's assistant."
Jiang Yao's pupils shrank.
It turned out to be that seemingly inconspicuous assistant?
She had noticed earlier that the other person was looking at her with a strange look.
But she didn't think much about it at the time, and her lack of precautions led to such consequences.
"Mr. Lu, if I remember correctly, isn't Miss Song Mian your lover?" Jiang Yao raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the man opposite with a forced smile.
"No, no..." Lu Xuan's face was full of regret, but now he could only confess: "That was an excuse I found for myself to get close to you. In fact, there is no ambiguous relationship between her and me! I didn't expect her to do such a thing, even though she has helped me so much..."
Is his judgment of people so bad?
Every time he chose someone, they ended up betraying him.
Jiang Yao sneered, "If I'm guessing correctly, the data you presented at the academic conference was also given to you by her."
Lu Xuan looked up in surprise, as if he was surprised at how she knew this.
He quickly explained, "I valued her because of her outstanding abilities. I didn't expect her to do something like this behind my back. But Yaoyao, believe me, it really wasn't me who ordered her to do this!"
Jiang Yao didn't say anything, but Lian Yingying sarcastically said, "Mr. Lu is really good at making excuses! Haven't you hurt Yaoyao enough? Why are you pretending to be innocent now? Whenever I get involved with you, nothing good happens."
Lan Qiuru also had a very bad impression of this scumbag who had hurt her daughter. "If Mr. Lu doesn't give us a satisfactory explanation today, I will call the police directly."
At this moment, Lu Xuan was completely speechless.
At this moment, Jiang Yao said calmly: "Okay, I believe he didn't do this."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan looked at her in surprise, as if he couldn't believe that she would speak up for him. There was touch and surprise in his eyes.
"Yaoyao?" Even Yingying and the others were puzzled and turned back.
"When I say I trust him, it's not because I approve of his character, but because he has no reason to do something so foolish that can be exposed at a glance, and there's no benefit in doing it."
Jiang Yao shrugged helplessly before continuing, "Since this matter has nothing to do with him, continuing to argue will only waste time. Our current focus should be tracking Song Mian and recovering the stolen technology. Do you have any leads?"
She asked Lu Xuan.
"When I first received the news, I went to her apartment and it was empty."
Afraid that she would be angry, Lu Xuan quickly added, "But the incident happened less than two hours ago. She shouldn't have gone too far. If we search with all our might, we might find some clues."
Jiang Yao pursed her lips upon hearing this, and without saying a word, she went out to call Li Beiting, but she was unable to get through.
Thinking of the phone number she had given to her confidant Qiao Wei, she called again to ask.
"Something went wrong at Li's headquarters, and he rushed back to deal with it. I'm afraid he didn't have time to check the news." Qiao Wei was still very understanding: "Miss Jiang, are you in trouble? President Li previously instructed me that if you encounter any problems, I should just follow his orders."
Jiang Yao's heart was touched. "I really want you to help me investigate someone's intelligence."
She knew that when it came to intelligence networks, the Jiang family couldn't compare to the Li family.
At this critical moment, she didn't care about anything else and briefly explained Song Mian's affairs.
Qiao Wei: "I understand, Miss Jiang. If you have more detailed information, photos, etc., please send me a copy. I will give you a result in half an hour."
"good."
After the call ended, Jiang Yao walked back to Lu Xuan and took out his phone. "Send me a copy of Song Mian's personal information, photos, and projects he's in charge of, right now."
Lu Xuan nodded after hearing this, and without delay, he made a phone call to give the order.
Ten minutes later, he forwarded the message to Jiang Yao's WeChat, and Jiang Yao forwarded it to Qiao Wei.
"Let's go to the monitoring room first and see if there are any missing clues..."
As they talked, they walked backstage together.
Jiang Yao watched the surveillance video several times and became more and more surprised.
Song Mian seemed ordinary and low-key on weekdays, but now it was discovered that she was agile and nimble.
Just like a professionally trained agent, every move he makes is cautious.
When he finally took the research results away, his feet didn't make much noise.
It's not something that ordinary people can cultivate.
"Mr. Lu, I'm actually very curious, where on earth did you recruit such a capable assistant?"
Jiang Yao crossed his arms and asked with a half-smile.
Lu Xuan, however, was sweating profusely, looking embarrassed. "She, she was an assistant at my previous company. I'm not sure when she was hired, but when I first met her, I found her to be efficient, quick-witted, and not particularly striking in appearance, so I transferred her to work with me."
He swore that this time he really had no ulterior motives and just wanted to find a capable assistant.
In the end, he was still completely plotted against.
Jiang Yao sneered.
It was clear that the other party came prepared.
However, she didn't expect that the target was not Lu Xuan, but her.
Does she have any conflict with the other party?
Or is it related to the mastermind behind Song Mian?
Just as I was thinking this, the phone beeped.
Jiang Yao picked it up and saw that it was the latest investigation information sent by Qiao Wei.
After reading it, her pupils suddenly shrank, "It's actually related to him!"
"Who?" Lan Qiuru asked curiously.
Jiang Yao had a complicated expression. "The investigation said that Song Mian was a commercial spy hired by Ryan."
"How is that possible!" Lan Qiuru blurted out.
Jiang Yao also felt something was strange.
She didn't think Ryan was that capable.
If he could have laid the secret line earlier, why would he have gone to the trouble of bribing Han Yuan and ended up making such a big joke?
It's not like he did it on purpose to let her down her guard.
She was skeptical about the result.
However, Qiao Wei soon sent another message, which made her eyes light up.
"According to intelligence tracking, she's currently headed to Binhai City. She might be trading with someone there. I might still have time to rush back!"
Jiang Yao turned around and was about to leave, but Lan Qiuru grabbed him and said, "Yaoyao, don't be impulsive. I can't rest assured if you go alone."
"I'm fine." Jiang Yao patted the back of her hand soothingly, his expression gentle, "I have strong fighting skills and self-protection abilities. I will definitely be able to escape at the critical moment. Please trust me!"
Lian Yingying also comforted her: "Yes, Auntie, Yaoyao's martial arts are simply to the point where one can fight a hundred people. Don't worry, I will be with you in the laboratory waiting for the results."
After finally calming her down, Jiang Yao turned and left. Lu Xuan quickly caught up with her, "I'll go with you."
"Need not."
"After all, this incident was caused by my negligence. I must take responsibility. Just take me with you. When you see her, maybe you can push me out to hold her back, and you can take the opportunity to retrieve the technology."
Lu Xuan tried hard to persuade her.
