The Boya people were in no mood to stay and observe, so they began to leave the conference room from the back door, each with a solemn expression on their face. Xia Xi observed them as they walked, but couldn't see any flaws in any of them.
The corridor was very quiet, with thick carpet on the floor, which even eliminated the sound of walking.
Just now in the conference room, there were so many people that Gao Ge was not in a position to question him. But now, without any scruples, she was furious. She pulled Xia Xi's arm and yelled, "Is it you? It was you who gave our design plan to Cheng Bai, wasn't it?"
The team members were all very surprised and didn't understand why Gao Ge said that.
Xia Xi also found it incredible. Why did Gao Ge think that she had betrayed the company?
On second thought, it seemed understandable. Gao Ge had been dissatisfied with her from the beginning to the end. When encountering such a thing, it was natural for her to turn her attention to the person she hated the most.
Xia Xi's brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to solve the current dilemma. Not wanting to argue with Gao Ge, she only said three words, and she could believe it or not: "It's not me."
Her tone was cold, and it was hard to tell how angry or upset she was. Gao Ge was even more certain that she was the traitor, and she saw Xia Xi and Zhang Wanli of Chengbai meeting privately yesterday.
She had a strange feeling at the time, but couldn't put it into words for a moment. Now she finally understood. During the competition, one should avoid suspicion and reduce contact with competitors. Yesterday morning, Xia Xi ran into Zhang Wanli by chance. They had a relationship, so saying hello was fine, but she shouldn't have met him alone!
Who knows what the two traded.
Now, the facts are in front of us. Zhang Wanli must have promised Xia Xi some benefits, so Xia Xi gave him the design plan.
This traitor! How hateful!
There were so many of them, and they worked overtime for more than ten days to come up with the plan, and they were busy during the New Year's Day holiday. But Xia Xi just handed it over to the competitor, catching them off guard!
Fortunately, she had heard about Xia Xi's resume yesterday and had changed her mind about her. She planned to have a private chat with her and apologize. Because all along, she thought Xia Xi was incompetent and got in through the backdoor.
Just as Gao Ge was about to throw away the evidence in his hand, he heard the tearful voices of his colleagues beside him.
"What should I do now?"
"What else can we do? Just let it go! Our turn to present is this afternoon, and if we don't have the design plan, what are we going to present?"
"Can't you go find the person in charge of Xu's company and explain it clearly? It was Chengbai's shameless company that stole our design! We can provide a series of original drafts, including the prototype of the idea."
"Chengbai is a big company. After all, we were established not long ago. Will Xu trust us?"
"So what do you say we should do?"
"I don't know...I want to cry."
There was a tragic atmosphere in the team, and everyone's emotions changed from initial anger to despair, because they felt that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.
Xia Xi pursed her lips and said nothing, too calm. She twisted her wrist and broke free from Gao Ge's shackles. Gao Ge's eyes were like sharp arrows, about to shoot holes in Xia Xi's face.
When the elevator reached the first floor, Xia Xi took out her phone from her bag and called Lu Mingji. She couldn't hide this from him: "Something happened..."
She explained the whole story in a few words, and Lu Mingji on the other end of the phone's face changed drastically. He didn't expect this kind of situation to happen.
Lu Mingji: "Do you know who did it?"
"It's pointless to talk about this now. The most urgent thing is how to stabilize the Xu Group and continue to participate in this competition."
Boya and the others who were traveling with her looked at Xia Xi in disbelief. Even at this point, she still wanted to participate in the competition. Wasn't this a fantasy?
The plan is gone! How can I participate?
Lu Mingji thought for a moment and chose to believe Xia Xi. Since she said so, there must be a way. "Well, I'll rush over to meet you guys right away. You guys book a room first, and when I get there, we'll have a meeting to discuss how to handle this matter."
Xia Xi said "OK", went to the front desk to book a room, and walked back with the room card.
The rest of the people were like headless flies, completely at a loss and just kept circling around Xia Xi.

Lu Mingji didn't even have time to eat lunch. He took his car keys and drove to Junrui Hotel.
Xia Xi sent him the room number in advance. When they arrived at the place and parked the car, he got out, raised his hand and threw the car keys in front of the parking attendant, without caring whether the person caught them or not, and strode in.
Pushing open the door of the suite, there were eight people standing or sitting inside. Except for Xia Xi, the others all had drooping brows and eyes, with their heads almost hanging to the ground.
When they saw Lu Mingji, several people lost their spirits and moved their lips to call him "Mr. Lu" perfunctorily.
Lu Mingji was sweating in the middle of winter, his hair a little messy. He took off his coat and found a single sofa to sit down. "I've heard what Mr. Xia said. The current situation..."
"Mr. Lu, have you really figured things out?" Gao Ge interrupted coldly. He then took out his phone, pulled out a photo, and threw it on the coffee table. "I don't want to say anything more, lest you accuse me of deliberately targeting Xia Xi. See for yourself."
The phone hit the glass coffee table with a "bang", interrupting Lu Mingji's words. He lowered his eyes to look at the phone screen. Xia Xi was sitting opposite a man, and the background seemed to be in a coffee shop.
Out of curiosity, the others also stretched their necks to take a look and recognized the man as Vice President Zhang of Chengbai. They slowly turned their heads and looked at Xia Xi with complicated eyes.
Gao Ge's eyes turned red, and he wanted to rush up and slap Xia Xi twice: "The man in the photo is Zhang Wanli from Chengbai! I accidentally stumbled upon and took this photo yesterday, and today our plan has become Chengbai's! Doesn't this make the problem clear?"
