"Boss Ye, do you still want to hear my explanation?" Du Xiran asked unsurely, "Are you hungry?"
Ye Yiyun sneered: "Tell me, what is bribery?"
"It's like this. Ye Nanning did give me a bag, but I also gave her a bag of comparable value. I can provide proof of purchase here. This is just a gift between friends. I didn't expect it to be mistaken for bribery." Du Xiran said.
"Friends?" Ye Yiyu looked at her, "Are you friends?"
"Yes, my subordinates and I are friends." Du Xiran said impartially.
Ye Yiyu nodded slowly: "Go on."
Du Xiran further explained: "She drives me to work because she and I are neighbors, and she will help me drive when she gets a ride from me."
"Neighbors? You are still neighbors?" Ye Yiyu asked curiously.
"Yes."
"She's not..." Ye Yiyun paused, and seeing the other party's puzzled look, he changed the topic and asked, "Isn't she an intern? How come she is your neighbor?"
"Her original rental house was about to be sold by the landlord, so she moved to my place. It's close to the company and she can get a ride with me," said Du Xiran.
Ye Yiyu motioned for her to continue.
"As for the lunch box, since she likes to cook, I usually go to her house for dinner. She recently started to bring her own lunch box, and she also made one for me. But I will pay her the living expenses on a monthly basis. I have the record of the money I transferred to her last month, you can also take a look." Du Xiran ignored the matter of tutoring to avoid getting involved too much and causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
She opened the transfer record of last month and handed it to Ye Yiyu.
Ye Yiyu just took a look and asked, "Does she like cooking?"
"Yes, the food she cooks is delicious." Du Xiran said.
Ye Yiyun's face was tense: "You two seem to have a good relationship."
"Well, I don't deny that. As a leader, I admire her abilities. As a friend, I like her personality. As a neighbor, I love her food." Du Xiran said generously, "We do have a good relationship, but I won't abuse my power for personal gain, and I have never favored her. She has followed several projects, and I know her abilities. If you don't believe me, you can also go to our group and ask other employees about her usual work status."
Ye Yiyu nodded: "Then go and call everyone in your group in one by one."
Du Xiran: “…?”
No, I was just being polite. Why aren't you being polite?
With so much work to do, do you still have time to learn about this? !
But there was no way to guess what the boss was thinking, so she went to call in the employees in the group one by one.
Ye Yiyu asked Ye Nanning about her work and received unanimous praise.
After these people left, Du Xiran said, "Boss Ye, I believe you will not be blinded by a few slanderous words from others and miss out on such a great talent. You are the person I admire the most."
Hearing this, Ye Yiyun stared at her for a while, and suddenly his eyes moved: "Oh, I remember, you are the intern who... cried?"
Du Xiran smiled and said, "Do you still remember?"
Ye Yiyun nodded and recalled: "I followed your follow-up at that time, and I was not sure whether my decision was right. Fortunately, you worked hard and proved that my vision was right."
Du Xiran smiled sincerely: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Ye. This may sound too flattering, but you are indeed my goal and role model in this industry."
"It's my honor." Ye Yiyu finally smiled, "Go and get Ye Nanning in."
"Okay." Du Xiran saw him smile and knew that this matter was probably settled. She found Ye Nanning and comforted her, "Just explain it well. Don't mention the tutoring. I don't have anything to say about your family background. Just tell the truth about the rest. Mr. Ye won't make things difficult for you."
Ye Nanning nodded, took a deep breath, walked into the office, and looked at Ye Yiyu in surprise.
After a while, Ye Nanning said dryly, "I didn't bribe Mr. Du."
"You...can't even take out 200 yuan for takeout?" Ye Yiyu said, "Is it because your living allowance was stopped last month, so it's not enough? Didn't you say it was okay? If it's not enough, I'll transfer some money to your card later."
"That's enough." Ye Nanning lowered her head in shame. "This is just a matter of fact. It's hard to explain."
Ye Yiyun asked again: "Does everyone in the company really not know your true identity?"
Ye Nanning nodded.
Ye Yiyu: "Why don't you want them to know? Otherwise, how could something like this happen today?"
Ye Nanning: "It's hard to explain."
Ye Yiyun: "And Du Xiran, how did you become her neighbor?"
Ye Nanning: "...It's very troublesome to explain."
Ye Yiyun: "......"
The two of them were silent for a while, and then Ye Yiyu asked, "Are you used to the environment here? I asked around, and they all said that you have good business skills. Do you want to be transferred to a higher-level department to learn?"
Ye Nanning shook her head. "This is good enough. I still have a lot to learn. And if I transfer to another position at this time, others will definitely think that I really bribed Mr. Du. They might even think that the bribe was sent to you."
Ye Yiyun snorted: "I hope you can bribe me."
Ye Nanning looked at him in confusion. Ye Yiyu said, "Driving and cooking for others is your way of bribery?"
Ye Nanning: "No..."
"When will you do it..." Ye Yiyu stopped talking halfway. It seemed that they were not used to such a warm conversation. He sighed in his heart, "Okay, there is nothing for you to do here. Go call the intern in."
"Hu Hanqiao?" Ye Nanning asked.
"No... the male intern sitting in the middle."
The people who had attended the meeting had been paying attention to what was going on in the office. When they saw Yan Zhenghao being called in, everyone was shocked. Even Ye Nanning couldn't understand it and asked curiously, "Why did President Ye call him in?"
Du Xiran sat in Ye Nanning's seat, staring at Yan Zhenghao in the office for a while. He didn't know what he thought of. He turned his head to look at the nervous Hu Hanqiao opposite him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Boss Ye... you are really a sharp-eyed old fox."
Hearing this, Ye Nanning looked over again and seemed to have guessed the various reasons.
Ten minutes later, Yan Zhenghao came out of the office and notified Hu Hanqiao to come in for questioning.
Hu Hanqiao was fully prepared mentally, but she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why did Mr. Ye come to you? What did he ask you?"
Yan Zhenghao said vaguely: "Go in quickly, don't keep Mr. Ye waiting for too long."
Hu Hanqiao had no choice but to go to the office first and greeted politely, "Hello, Mr. Ye."
Ye Yiyu had already sat down in his seat, and when he looked at her, his eyes were like those of a hawk, as if he wanted to expose all her lies. However, she was not afraid because she firmly believed that she was right.
And now that I have made up my mind, I cannot back down at this point.
"You are very courageous. Why did you report it under such circumstances? Have you reported this issue to your leaders in advance?" Ye Yiyu asked.
These words seemed to give her courage, and she said frankly, "No, my VP has a good relationship with President Du, and I was afraid that they would protect each other, so I chose to tell you directly just now to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Well, do you think I will believe you or them? Both of them told me there was no bribe."
"They are lying, and I have shown the evidence."
"The evidence is too one-sided. They provided convincing evidence to refute it. This matter is just a misunderstanding." Ye Yiyu said.
"Impossible, Mr. Ye, please check it carefully. They must have prepared countermeasures in advance, which is why they dare to be so blatant." Hu Hanqiao said anxiously.
"You seem to be very concerned about this."
“It’s about fairness.”
Ye Yiyun sneered twice: "Are you really doing this for fairness?"
Hu Hanqiao was stunned, and her tone weakened: "Yes."
"The evidence you have is all secretly taken photos. You didn't even look through the delivery slips in the trash can. It shows that you care a lot about this matter."
"I...do this just to find evidence." said Hu Hanqiao.
"But you only found the courier slip for the gift that Ye Nanning gave to Du Xiran, and you didn't see the package that Du Xiran sent back to Ye Nanning, which happened to have an extra thousand yuan."
"This...but where did Ye Nanning get the money? She has no money at all. The money used to buy the bag is very suspicious!" Hu Hanqiao suddenly raised her voice.
"Where do you think her money comes from?" Ye Yiyu asked calmly.
Hu Hanqiao thought for a moment and said, "It's either a credit card or an online loan, or it was given to her by the boys."
"Boy?"
"She is very beautiful, so naturally many boys will compete to give her money and gifts."
Ye Yiyun was silent for a moment, then suddenly sneered twice: "Hu Hanqiao, I really underestimated your vision."
Hu Hanqiao looked at him blankly.
"Is it true that in your mind, beautiful poor women can only rely on charity from men? Will they rely on their appearance to make a living?" Ye Yiyu asked pointedly.
Hu Hanqiao was pinned to the spot by his sharp gaze and said stiffly: "But, the source of her money is unknown..."
"I'll tell you where her money comes from. It comes from the red envelopes and pocket money she has received since she was a child, from her stock fund management, and from the restaurant and milk tea shop she invested in..."
Hu Hanqiao slowly opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "How do you know? Did she just tell you? Could she be lying to you?"
"If you're smart, you can think about why she and I have the same last name."
Hu Hanqiao was struck by lightning and almost lost her balance. She held on to the chair beside her and stood up straight. She said in disbelief, "She is your...daughter?"
Ye Yiyun looked at her and said, "I hope you can keep this secret after you leave. Otherwise, your new colleagues will know that you are a jealous woman."
"Quit?" Hu Hanqiao felt a chill in her heart and her face turned pale.
"Then give me a reason for me to keep you." Ye Yiyu said seriously.
Hu Hanqiao broke out in a cold sweat and slowly lowered her head: "No."
"You were originally on the elimination list. If you hadn't made such a fuss, you might have stayed." Ye Yiyu paused for a moment and said, "You like that boy named Yan Zhenghao, right?"
Hu Hanqiao looked up at him in surprise.
"During the meeting, you were always sneaking glances at him, while he was looking at Ye Nanning." Ye Yiyu shook his head and sighed.
The thoughts of young boys and girls can never be hidden, and the old fox has already discovered the clues.
Hu Hanqiao bit her lower lip: "This matter has nothing to do with him, don't implicate him."
Ye Yiyun looked at her pitifully and said, "You seem to be selfish and affectionate, but you are actually stupid."
Hu Hanqiao suddenly straightened her back. Now that things had come to this, she could only bear the consequences. She looked at him stubbornly, "Zhenghao was just deceived for a moment. He will soon find out that I am the one who loves him the most. Besides, it is even more impossible for the rich Ye Nanning to fall in love with him."
"Silly child, don't spend too much time on men." Ye Yiyu said, "Do you want to know what question I just asked him?"
Hu Hanqiao wanted to say no rationally, but her emotions prevailed in the end: "What?"
"I asked him, if one of Ye Nanning and Hu Hanqiao had to be eliminated, who would he choose?"
Ye Yiyun: "Guess who he chose?"
Hu Hanqiao guessed the answer almost immediately, and realized belatedly that she actually knew very well that even if Ye Nanning was branded as a briber, Yan Zhenghao would not fall in love with her.
Hu Hanqiao ran out of the office crying, attracting the attention of others.
"Lisa, reorganize the meeting." Ye Yiyu dialed the HR internal line.
Everyone sat in the conference room again. Ye Yiyu said, "The matter has been investigated. The bribery was a misunderstanding. The gifts were given to each other by both parties. There was no bribery. Then please ask the reckless but courageous Miss Hu to apologize to the two parties and let this matter go."
This was to save Hu Hanqiao's face. She sat in her seat, her eyes red from crying, and said in a hoarse voice: "Boss Du, Ye Nanning, I'm sorry."
Du Xiran nodded: "Don't be so reckless in the future."
Ye Nanning also nodded.
Lisa asked: "Mr. Ye, what about the elimination of the interns..."
"Since there has never been such a precedent before, let's not break it this year. Let's just follow the usual practice," said Ye Yiyu.
Hu Hanqiao was the only one on the elimination list, and according to convention, she had to resign.
But everyone present knew that this was most likely Hu Hanqiao's fault, and it had touched Mr. Ye's sore spot. He liked fair competition, and what he hated most was intrigue, mutual suspicion and exploitation.
After Hu Hanqiao completed the resignation procedures, she stood at the stairs and looked around, only to find that no one came to see her off. Even her friends who usually gossiped with her avoided her.
The office building returned to its normal working state, but it was a little different. The news had just spread, and almost all the employees on this floor had experienced a tortuous mental journey, from suspicion and anger to a reversal of the ending, which really made many people secretly talk about it.
Hu Jiaxu also poked Ye Nanning secretly: [Great! I knew you wouldn't do that kind of thing woooo! ]
Ye Nanning: [Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu, I’m scared to death too]
Hu Jiaxu: [If you don’t do anything wrong, you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. What are you afraid of? ]
Ye Nanning: [Woo woo woo]
She was afraid of many things. Whenever Ye Yiyu and Du Xiran were alone together, she was afraid that her reputation would be exposed, that Ye Yiyu would transfer her away, and even more afraid that Ye Yiyu would cause trouble for Du Xiran.
It was almost time to get off work, and Xu Huan shouted, "Congratulations, Xiaoye, on getting the bonus. You don't have to work overtime tonight, so do you want to treat me?"
"Okay." Ye Nanning nodded. She finally had a reason to treat them to a meal. Usually everyone took care of her because she was an intern and had little money, so they often treated her to afternoon tea without charging her any money.
After get off work, a group of people called Du Xiran and got into the elevator. They found that Ye Yiyu and the secretary also came in.
There was silence in the elevator for a moment, followed by a series of "Hello, Mr. Ye".
Ye Nanning took advantage of the situation and did not say a word.
Unexpectedly, she was discovered. Ye Yiyu looked at her accurately and said, "Why didn't you say hello?"
Everyone winked at Ye Nanning, and she even felt Du Xiran pinching her waist from behind to remind her.
?(? ?.?w?.? ?)?
"Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye." Ye Nanning shouted.
Ye Yiyun nodded and casually asked the others: "Are you going home?"
"No, Ye Nanning is treating us to a meal." Xu Huan said, "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for the award. It is well deserved."
Ye Nanning felt shy after hearing what she said, and everyone else started laughing.
After everyone walked out of the elevator, Du Xiran found that Ye Yiyu had followed them and asked curiously, "Mr. Ye, we are going to a dinner party, and your car doesn't seem to be here..."
Ye Yiyu stopped awkwardly and watched them leave, his eyes fixed on the lunch bag in Du Xiran's hand.
Lao Wang took the initiative to assume the role of driver. Du Xiran was pulled to the last row by Xu Huan, and squeezed in with Ye Nanning and the other two, saying that he wanted to hear the details of the afternoon.
When Xu Huan closed the door, he looked out the window: "Hey, Mr. Ye is still standing at the door. What is he looking at?"
As he spoke, the other people in the car looked over.
Du Xiran remembered that Mr. Ye had been asking her about the bento. She found it interesting and turned to talk to Ye Nanning beside her about it.
Unexpectedly, Ye Nanning tilted her head to look out the window and didn't notice that she suddenly turned her head.
Du Xiran's lips accidentally touched her cheek, and they both widened their eyes at the same time.
Du Xiran: “…”
Ye Nanning:!!!
Xu Huan: "Damn, you guys are so exciting."
