Chapter 09 A thrilling battle 5
On a summer afternoon, the scorching sun shines down on the towering trees outside the window, softening even the chirping of cicadas in the trees.
After lunch, I should have felt the sleepiest during the day, but I lay on the pillow on the desk, tossing and turning, and couldn't fall asleep.
Ever since Su Anyang was called to Wang Siqi's deputy general manager's office after lunch, I have been feeling uneasy.
The head of our department said that Su Anyang had made a mistake in typing a number on a contract, causing huge losses to the company. Now that the matter has been brought to Wang Siqi's attention, Su Anyang may be punished.
I know that Anyang has always been a careful girl. Anyang and I also checked the contract over and over again .
Logically speaking, there is no way it could go wrong.
But now the facts are in front of me, the company's people insist that it is Su Anyang's fault. And Wei Jimo was called away during dinner, so in a hurry, I had no choice but to watch Su Anyang being taken away.
"It's been so long, why hasn't Anyang come back yet?" I was secretly worried when Su Anyang suddenly rushed into the office.
"Yining, something bad has happened, something bad has happened." Su Anyang grabbed my hand and ran towards the elevator. "Ji Mo and Wang Siqi are arguing."
"Why?" My heart sank, and I asked quickly, "Why did Ji Mo run to the deputy general manager's office? Why did he quarrel with her?"
"I don't know why he appeared there." After entering the elevator, Su Anyang quickly pressed the button for the 17th floor. "I only know that Ji Mo and Wang Siqi quarreled because of me. You know, Wang Siqi called me to her office just now, and then threw the wrong contract in front of me and told me that I should either compensate the company for the huge losses, or I would leave Jinse School on my own initiative. Otherwise, I would not only be entangled in lawsuits, but also be expelled from school."
"Is that what she said?" I sneered. I already had the answer in my mind. "I think that asking you to pay compensation is fake, and the real reason is that they want you to leave school! They went to great lengths to set you up in this trap. Is it just to make you leave school?"
But what benefits will this bring to Wang Siqi?
"That's what I thought at first." Su Anyang shook his head and said, "It wasn't until Ji Mo rushed into Wang Siqi's office and started arguing with her that I felt that things might not be as simple as we thought."
"Did Ji Mo quarrel with her because he heard your conversation?" I had a vague uneasy feeling in my heart. I thought that maybe Wang Siqi's plan was also for Lian Wei Ji Mo to show up outside the deputy general manager's office on time.
"Yeah. Wang Siqi's words were nasty and she said some bad things about my mother, which was heard by Ji Mo. Ji Mo couldn't bear to see me being humiliated , so he rushed in to question her." Su Anyang nodded and said, "Who knew that Wang Siqi not only didn't buy into Wei Ji Mo's account, but instead intensified her provocation. Then, Ji Mo got angry and started arguing with her."
"Let's just quarrel. After all, there are some things that everyone knows, so why bother pretending that you know nothing?"
In fact, ever since Su Anyang saw Wei Jifeng outside the office last time, I have been worried that something might happen. Unexpectedly, what I feared would come true.
"If only it were that simple." Su Anyang bit his lip and sighed, "You were not in the office at the time, so you didn't see that Wang Siqi deliberately used all means to trick Ji Mo into revealing his life story in front of her."
"Just say it. It will be revealed sooner or later anyway." I patted Su Anyang's hand and comforted him.
"Silly girl, do you think she will just let it go after doing so many things?" Su Anyang sighed faintly, with resentment in his eyes, "Wang Siqi is meticulous and scheming. When Ji Mo said these words, the old man was bringing a group of senior executives of the company to the conference room on the 17th floor for a meeting. So..."
"So Grandpa Wei heard about this?" I asked hurriedly, my heart sinking suddenly.
"Not only the old man heard it, but almost all the senior executives of the Wei family who were present at the time heard it. Therefore, the mystery of Ji Mo's life experience may not be kept secret." Su Anyang said it with shock, and I was shocked to hear it. "The old man was furious on the spot. You didn't even see his expression at the time, as if he wanted to eat someone."
"The Wei family has concealed Ji Mo's background for so many years and has always kept this matter a secret. Now that it has been revealed, the old man must feel ashamed. It would be abnormal if he was not angry!"
I didn't expect things to be this serious. Wang Siqi arranged everything perfectly. I'm afraid she had planned this situation for a long time.
However, things have developed to this point, and Anyang hurriedly dragging me to the 17th floor will not help. Thinking this in my heart, I asked this question.
"But Anyang, why are you asking me to go up now?"
"Yining, you should be mentally prepared. The old man was furious just now and said he wanted to put Ji Mo under house arrest. I called you here because I want you to meet Ji Mo." Su Anyang called me softly with a heavy look in his eyes, "Also, the old man said he wants to meet you."
