SPRING, a famous revolving restaurant in Haicheng.
Li Han pushed the menu in front of Pei Zhaoan and said solemnly, "Team Leader Pei, I sincerely apologize to you for taking the wrong USB drive three years ago. Today it's my treat, order whatever you want."
During her sophomore year, Li Han was always very cautious in everything she did. She had no connections and no one to teach her, so she had to figure things out on her own. She always felt that making a mistake was a major disaster, which made her very tired.
She glanced at the wooden house-shaped cakes in the transparent cake box on the table.
"I'm sorry that you embarrassed yourself in front of your European customers and had to run away overnight. It was my fault that I'm only apologizing now."
Li Han felt uneasy after speaking, but she still mustered up the courage to look Pei Zhaoan directly in the eyes.
“Actually, I’ve never blamed you.” Pei Zhaoan poured Li Han a glass of lemonade. “Why are you apologizing? This isn’t your fault.”
“I had someone investigate. It turns out that your colleague Yang Wei arranged for someone to deliberately bump into you and switch your USB drive.”
Li Han opened her eyes wide. It turned out that Pei Zhaoan had investigated afterward.
At that time, Li Han hadn't yet figured out how things were in the workplace. It was only much later that she realized something was wrong, but by then, there was no way to investigate further.
Moreover, by running away, she only confirmed that she had something to hide. This incident taught Li Han a profound lesson: when faced with problems, one must dare to confront them directly; avoidance will only lead to more mistakes.
Seeing Li Han fall silent, Pei Zhaoan raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, do I look that scary? Just because you dialed the wrong video, you were so scared that you ran away from the company overnight?"
"Then, what was the meaning of setting off Peppa Pig fireworks on the night of the blind date?"
Li Han got a little angry, "You really made me think that you, the president of such a big group, are so petty and have held a grudge against me for three years."
She gulped down a large mouthful of lemonade, and her anxiety finally subsided.
Pei Zhaoan said softly, "It was indeed remembered for three years."
"What?" Li Han looked up.
Pei Zhaoan chuckled and changed the subject: "Don't you want to know the reaction of European customers after they see me broadcasting Peppa Pig?"
Li Han nodded frantically.
“I’ve smoothed things over.” Pei Zhaoan toyed with the spoon in his coffee cup, his tone tinged with reminiscence: “This little incident actually brought me closer to my customers, and the big deal in Europe went very smoothly.”
Li Han was taken aback. "It's good that it didn't affect you or the company."
"I never expected to achieve this by accident."
His gaze softened: "Thanks to you, I also completed my job rotation performance with this big order, officially entered the core of the Pei family's power, and then rose all the way to become the president of Lexiang."
"No, no, no," Li Han quickly said, "It's because you have strong adaptability that you turned the situation around."
"If I were in that situation, I would have already lost my composure. How could I possibly smooth things over and try to get closer to the customers?"
Pei Zhaoan shook his head: "Don't deny your own value. Although you were an intern back then, you really amazed me."
"You have many ingenious ideas, you are very smart and hardworking."
His voice grew more and more resolute as he spoke: "You deserve the best."
Li Han has rarely received such unwavering support since she was a child, and recently, she has met Si Jiuyin, Si Jin, and Pei Zhaoan, all of whom have been giving her positive feedback.
She felt that her emotions were also in a stable and positive state, which felt particularly good.
"Oh, right." Pei Zhaoan handed his phone to Li Han: "Take a look, I made an unexpected discovery."
Li Han took Pei Zhaoan's phone and found that Pei Zhaoan was showing her a WeChat chat interface.
This is a message sent by Team Leader Bai from the Content Big Data Department to Pei Zhaoan.
[President Pei, as you instructed, we have conducted a comparative analysis of the interview and accusations made by Grandma Liu, who claims to be a victim in the Si Group plagiarism scandal, with publicly available images and videos online.]
We discovered that this "Grandma Liu" had previously filmed advertisements for fraudulent cancer and diabetes treatments.
She's not a craftswoman at all; she's a veteran actress in shady health product commercials.
Team Leader Bai also sent comparison photos and videos, along with Grandma Liu's investigation data.
Li Han clicked on the video, which was a video of a shady advertisement that Grandma Liu had filmed before.
"Having helped thousands of people fight cancer for thirty years, today I've made a decision that goes against our ancestors' teachings! I'm going to reveal our ancestors' secret anti-cancer formula!"
Grandma Liu's voice was strong and clear, not at all like the "sick, weak, and disheartened" she sounded in the interview accusing the Si Group.
"Pfft—" Li Han couldn't help but laugh when she saw the shady advertisements that Grandma Liu had filmed: "When we were kids, we watched TV at the orphanage and everyone hated those super long health product ads that were interrupted. I heard that quite a few old people have been fooled by them."
However, Li Han suddenly asked in confusion as she smiled, "Why did you suddenly think of using big data to compare faces?"
"Is it to help me?"
Pei Zhaoan coughed lightly: "It just so happened that the department was testing its big data model, so I had them test this face comparison search function."
Pei Zhaoan paused for a moment: "I heard that the Si Group also had Jingduo's Lianyin Technology AI team do facial comparison."
"Did you and Jing Duo stay in touch after that blind date?"
Li Han shook her head. Jing Yingdi was her idol in high school, and even if she had his contact information, she didn't want to bother him.
"No, this matter was handled by the person in charge of the New Year Limited Edition project in the Food Department and the Lianyin Technology team."
Upon hearing Li Han's reply, Pei Zhaoan's furrowed brows relaxed: "So, Jing Duo's Lianyin Technology AI hasn't come up with a result yet, right?"
