Chapter 152 Getting Beaten
Chapter 152 Getting Beaten
Lai Yu-Chiang forced a standard fake smile in response.
Years of professional experience have given her a kind of muscle memory: she can instantly force a smile even when she sees someone she doesn't like.
No matter how fake that smile is.
Lai Yuqiang appeared calm and composed on the surface.
"An Ying, congratulations on finally clearing your name. I always believed that it was someone with ulterior motives who framed you."
"Although Xie Li has taken over many of your tasks while you were away, you still need to keep up the good work."
An Ying smiled faintly: "Thank you for your concern, Director Lai."
Shu Wen saw An Ying from afar and ran over.
Her eyes were brimming with tears: "Sister Ying, I miss you so much. I knew you were innocent..."
An Ying smiled and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her.
The workplace is a place of cold and indifferent human relationships. When she was framed, someone stood firmly by her side. Such a sentiment is truly rare.
An Ying quickly got back to work, holding a brief routine work meeting with her team.
After finishing her work, she returned to her office and had just sat down when she received a call from Ye Rao.
“Baby! I just came out of the courthouse and when I checked my phone I saw the news about Su Jixun. The internet is really lively.”
"I didn't expect him to not only explain things clearly for you, but also turn the tables on Qin Jinchuan. Congratulations!"
Ye Rao continued, "What are your plans next?"
Next, of course, is.........
An Ying curled the corners of her lips and glanced in the direction of Lai Yuqiang's office:
"How? Of course, by eliminating the traitor."
Getting rid of Lai Yuqiang is not a simple matter.
Yesterday, An Ying listened to a recording of Fu Chengli's men interrogating Su Jixun.
An Ying asked him why he didn't just expose this evidence directly.
Fu Chengli, holding the recording device, sneered: "Letting her just get lost like that would be too easy on her."
An Ying nodded thoughtfully.
He felt fortunate that he was not Fu Chengli's enemy.

A black car slowly drove into the Fu residence.
A group of nannies and housekeepers greeted the guests respectfully at the entrance of the Fu residence.
The car door opened, and Grandpa Fu stepped out, leaning on his cane.
Old Master Fu had a dark face, clearly indicating that he was in a very bad mood.
Everyone was too afraid to even breathe.
They only dared to keep their heads down and do their own work, for fear of running into trouble.
Upon arriving at the reception room, Fu Haidong, Fu Mingyi, and others, having heard that the old man was returning home today, were already waiting at the Fu residence.
Grandpa Fu walked past his two sons, leaning on his cane.
They retreated a few steps.
Just then, An Weiping rushed over: "Dad! Dad! I knew you were coming back so I could see you..."
Fu Mingyi winked at An Weiping.
He kept subtly implying: "Keep your voice down! Have some common sense!"
Suddenly, Old Master Fu raised his cane.
An Weiping was used to being beaten, and when he saw the cane taking off, he immediately covered his head instinctively.
boom--
Old Master Fu struck Fu Haidong with a stick.
Fu Haidong, already quite old, still had to get beaten by his own father, and said unhappily, "Dad!"
Old Master Fu glared at him: "Don't call me Dad! I didn't give birth to a son like you!"
Fu Haidong clutched his arm, gritting his teeth and swallowing his grievances.
When An Weiping saw that he hadn't been beaten up, but Fu Haidong had, he couldn't help but feel smug.
Butler Zhao helped Old Master Fu sit down.
Old Master Fu said with a stern face, "You think I didn't beat you enough! What kind of trouble have you and your son been having lately? You're just making a spectacle of yourselves for outsiders!"
Fu Haidong understood that the old man was referring to the recent leak of the QS project.
Fu Haidong explained with dissatisfaction, "Dad, you didn't even ask what happened, and you beat me as soon as you got back. Wasn't this all caused by An Ying?"
An Weiping, who was leisurely drinking tea, was taken aback.
He had previously seen news reports that An Ying was suspected of leaking internal documents from the QS project.
An Weiping even cursed at the time, saying that it served her right, since her daughter insisted on working for the Fu family.
Regardless of whether leaking internal information was her intention or not, she has gotten herself into trouble.
Is Fu Haidong trying to shirk responsibility now?
An Weiping said unhappily, "Second brother, why are you looking at me like that? That brat An Ying caused trouble, it wasn't me who instigated her. You should settle your scores and avenge your wrongs, don't drag innocent people into this..."
Old Master Fu interrupted, "Alright, this is none of your business, why are you interrupting!"
The nanny came forward and filled An Weiping's teacup.
An Weiping sipped his tea angrily.
Old Master Fu steadied himself and continued, "I was enjoying my retirement in my villa in Haicheng, leaving the Fu family's home front to you. But what have you done? I've only been gone a short while, and you've already caused me so much trouble."
An Weiping muttered under his breath, "I didn't."
Old Master Fu glared at An Weiping, who immediately cowered and dared not speak.
Old Master Fu: "Third son, tell me what exactly happened?"
Fu Mingyi gathered his thoughts and explained, "Dad, at the celebration banquet a while ago, several major shareholders of DM Bank happened to be there, and that's when the rumors started to circulate."
"The news that An Ying contacted Lu Qiyao of the Lu family in private and sold confidential information from the QS project was described in great detail, and even included photos of An Ying and Lu Qiyao having dinner and exchanging USB drives."
"In addition, the leaked documents revealed that the Lu family was the direct beneficiary of the QS project's failure, so the rumor spread like wildfire and everyone believed it."
“During this period, Chengli did a good job in handling the aftermath of the public opinion incident, and my second brother also signed the suspension and investigation documents for An Ying. But now, the explosive news about Su Jixun has been exposed.”
"It turns out that the photos used to slander An Ying were manipulated, a frame-up, which shows..."
Fu Mingyi glanced at Fu Haidong.
"This indicates that someone else leaked the documents."
Fu Mingyi looked at Old Master Fu with a serious expression: "Dad, the Fu Group needs a thorough internal investigation."
Grandpa Fu's aged fingers gripped his cane tightly.
Investigate! Investigate immediately!
An Weiping hid in the bathroom and called An Ying.
The phone rang for a long time before I answered it.
Before An Ying could speak, An Weiping said impatiently, "You brat, you've gotten yourself into big trouble!"
An Ying had just finished a video conference and hadn't even had a chance to drink water.
Then she heard her father berate her harshly.
An Ying said unhappily, "Dad, you should deal with your An Xiaoxiao first. She's been getting involved with gangsters in Yuncheng. Don't you know?"
