Their boss was a man in his fifties. Although he wasn't tall, his eyes were sharp and when he stood with his hands behind his back, he seemed imposing even without anger.

"Shen Yian." He said in a calm voice.

Everyone turned to look at Shen Yian.

"Here I am." Shen Yian stood up and said in a soft voice, "Boss, I was just about to find you..."

The boss, with a grim expression, raised his hand to cut her off.

"No need, I understand. Though your performance is better than Ruoxi's, that doesn't excuse you from bullying your colleagues or using it as leverage to be competitive. When you go out there, you represent the company, not yourself!"

"Boss..." Shen Yian was startled by the boss's angry tone.

"You actually went to Weiyi Technology to steal the credit? What does it matter that you signed a contract? You've put our company's face in jeopardy! In all my years of running this company, I've never seen someone as disrespectful as you!"

The boss, furious, slammed the folder in his hand onto Shen Yian's face.

"No, this matter is..."

Shen Yian tried his best to defend himself, but Wang Ruqi interrupted him again.

Wang Ruoqi stood up with tears in her eyes and said, "Boss, I'm sorry. It was my fault for not stopping Yi'an, and I didn't expect her to do this."

"What did I do?" Shen Yian frowned and retorted.

Wang Ruoqi said with a wronged expression: "Yi'an, since things have come to this, the contract is signed, I won't hold it against you."

"Speak clearly! What happened today, you and General Zhou both know it well. I didn't go there to steal credit!" Shen Yian clenched his fist.

After saying that, Wang Ruqi unexpectedly started playing a trick, pretending to stagger and falling into her colleague's arms.

Suddenly, everyone began to speculate what Shen Yian had done.

After all, Wang Ruqi knows the boss of Weiyixing Technology. The deputy general manager position is practically guaranteed. How could she possibly be signed to a contract so easily by Shen Yian?

At this time, General Zhou stood up.

He angrily pointed at Shen Yian and said, “Shen Yian! What is your attitude! Ruoxi doesn't mind you plagiarizing, you actually think of yourself as a successful official?”

"Plagiarism?"

Shen Yi'an looked at Director Zhou and Wang Ruqi in astonishment.

I never would have thought they would bite back at themselves.

Everyone around gasped. They most despised plagiarism in their line of work, especially among colleagues, which was considered the most shameful act.

Zhou, the director, said with a stoic expression: “Your plan is exactly the same as Raoqi's. Raoqi and I considered your mother's serious illness and didn't expose you in public. I even gave you leave to properly care for your mother and adjust her heartbeat.”

"You, on the other hand, stole credit by running to Weilai Technology without a word! You've put me and the entire company in an embarrassing position."

Shen Yi'an didn't want to be wronged and immediately retorted: "Director Zhou, you told me that Tuesday was the presentation for Weiyi Technology and asked me to prepare, but you went to Weiyi Technology today. What does this mean? Are you deliberately avoiding me with my plan?"

"What are you talking about? Do you have evidence that I intentionally told you the wrong time? Both of you work under me, who becomes the Deputy Director is good for me, why would I do this? You clearly misheard the time, and we couldn't find you anyway!" General Zhou said sternly.

"...."

Shen Yi'an pursed her lips. The time was what Zhou, the general manager, had told her verbally. How could she provide evidence?

It seems General Zhou intentionally told her the time privately, just to avoid leaving any evidence.

Looking at Zhou Zongjian's calculating eyes, Shen Yian didn't want to give up just like that.

She took a breath and countered, "Even if I heard wrong, is there anything wrong with me rushing to Weiyit Tech before the meeting?"

"You..." General Zhou trailed off.

As for plagiarism, the proposals are all kept privately. Unless Zhou General Manager helped me plagiarize when submitting the proposals, how could I have plagiarized?

Shen Yian raised a strong objection.
