Chapter 156 Sent to the Base Camp
The second cousin’s family’s hearts skipped a beat and their faces turned a little ugly.
[However, since Mr. Qiu is so sensible, and he and the second cousin happen to have a common enemy, it might not be a bad idea to do him a favor.]
Thinking of this, Duan Rao covered his phone and called out, "Sister-in-law."
The second cousin's wife ran over immediately and asked, "What's wrong, An An?"
Du Anrao came close to her and whispered a few questions. The second cousin couldn't help laughing as soon as she heard it: "What's the matter? I haven't done anything wrong, so why should I be afraid of people seeing it? Just let him rest assured, I have no objection."
Du Anrao immediately made an OK gesture to her and continued talking to Qiu Jichen.
"Mr. Qiu, from what you said, it seems that there is some turmoil in your company. Although my sister-in-law has no intention of getting involved in these disputes, there will be no eggs left unbroken when the nest is overturned, and there is no guarantee that someone will not target her. Would you consider installing a surveillance camera near her workstation? Maybe there will be... an unexpected surprise."
Qiu Jichen was not stupid. He immediately understood Duan Rao's implication. His eyes flickered slightly. "Of course, I can. But will your sister-in-law mind..."
"No, no, I just asked her and she didn't mind at all."
After hearing what she said, Qiu Jichen felt that installing this surveillance camera would be very useful, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll have someone go to the company to install the surveillance camera now."
"Thank you for your help."
[That's good now. As long as we install surveillance cameras near the second cousin's wife's workstation and take a picture of Manager Lai or her subordinates stealing jewelry and framing the second cousin's wife, we can arrest them. If we're lucky, we might be able to take Manager Lai to the police station for a round. This will give Mr. Qiu a logical reason to fire the other party, and also solve the second cousin's current predicament. It's a one-time solution. Perfect! ]
Fifth aunt and fifth uncle looked happy, and their worries were finally put at ease.
The two juniors thought more about it and subconsciously turned to look at each other, ready to make a move.
If there was really a chance to call the police and send Lai Yiwen to jail, wouldn't that be a coincidence? Send her to his base camp!
Given my husband's temperament, although he would not be partial to anyone, he would enforce the law impartially. This was indeed done by someone himself, and doing bad things and getting backlash is enough to make someone suffer the consequences!
The second cousin's wife became more and more excited the more she thought about it. She felt that the anger that had been stuck in her heart for so long was finally relieved. She felt indescribably happy!
Du Anrao exchanged a few more polite words with Qiu Jichen before hanging up the phone. He breathed a sigh of relief and told the Fifth Aunt and others who were waiting for news, "The Second Aunt's matter has been resolved. Manager Lai got into the company through connections. Mr. Qiu didn't know about it at first, but now that he knows, he will definitely deal with it. Sister-in-law, just go back and wait for news."
"As for what I just said, let sister-in-law tell the company's top management about the other party plagiarizing your work. I have also mentioned this to Mr. Qiu. Sister-in-law, bring the evidence over tomorrow, and someone will naturally hand it over to you. After they verify it, they will help you inform the industry about this matter and take back the honor that belongs to you, sister-in-law."
The second cousin's wife didn't expect such a pleasant surprise. She excitedly stepped forward and held Du Anrao's hand, saying with tears in her eyes: "An An, thank you. I never thought that the things that have troubled me for so many years would be solved today. I really don't know how to thank you."
When the little girl saw her mother thanking Du Anrao, she hurried over, hugged Du Anrao's thighs, and whispered thank you.
Du Anrao couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch the child's delicate face, and said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, if you want to thank someone, thank Mr. Qiu. I just said a few words casually. It was Mr. Qiu who contributed all the manpower and effort."
"That's what you said, but if you weren't the one who asked, how could Mr. Qiu be willing to do this? So it's not wrong for her to thank you. Our whole family should thank you."
"That's right, that's right, that's the truth."
Du Anrao was surrounded by her fifth aunt's family and praised again and again until her face turned red. Finally, it was Du's mother who stepped forward and rescued her.
"Now that the company's problems have been resolved, your sister-in-law should be fine too, right?"
Du Anrao suddenly woke up from his dream, and thinking of his second cousin's wife's minor illness, he reminded her again: "Yes, yes, yes, the company's affairs have been resolved, and sister-in-law should also relax her mind. Especially if you feel unwell, you must go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible, otherwise this minor illness can easily be delayed into a major illness, and then the gain will outweigh the loss."
Ordinary people might feel unlucky if they are suddenly reminded to go to the hospital for more frequent checkups and are told that minor illnesses can easily develop into major ones.
The second cousin's wife knew that Duan Rao had good intentions, and that she might have developed some minor problems because of Lai Yiwen. She was not angry when she heard this, but nodded in acceptance: "Okay, I'll go to the hospital for a thorough check-up in two days."
As for why we didn’t go tomorrow but waited two days instead, it was naturally to watch the fun.
The next morning, Li Manzhi sent her child to kindergarten and rushed to the company without stopping.
Unlike the listless and haggard look of the past few days, Li Manzhi, who had let go of the heavy burden in her heart, got up early today to put on makeup and wore a newly bought fashionable little white dress. She looked radiant and eye-catching.
As soon as I entered the office, I heard someone next door say something sourly: "Sister Li, did something good happen to you? You are dressed so beautifully today. I'm afraid this outfit must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Li Manzhi glanced at the person who was speaking, and he was indeed one of the most supportive lackeys in the department.
"It's OK. My husband just got a promotion recently and bought me several new clothes as gifts. I can't just leave them in the closet to collect dust, so I have to wear them out. But to get a compliment from you, it shows that my husband has good taste."
As soon as these words were spoken, the office fell silent.
But most people kept silent, watching coldly this daily farce. Only the female colleague who had just spoken and one or two colleagues next to her changed their expressions.
"Why are you so proud? Don't you think everyone knows her husband..." Before the female colleague could finish her sour muttering, there was a knock on the office door.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that their boss's boss, Director Liu, was standing at the door at some point in time, and no one knew how much of what had just been said.
"Is Li Manzhi here?"
Li Manzhi probably knew why this person came, so she stood up without panicking.
"Hello, Director Liu, I am Li Manzhi."
Director Liu looked her over and said, "Bring your things and come to me."
Li Manzhi did not dare to delay and quickly picked up the documents she had sorted out and followed him out.
Little did she know that as soon as she left, the female colleague who had just spoken started muttering again: "She went to Director Liu's office dressed like this, who knows what shameful things she was going to do?"
After she finished speaking, she found that no one responded to her. Her face darkened and she looked up at her colleagues sitting on her left and right.
He winked at the two of them, but his hand quietly reached out to Li Manzhi's workstation.
