Chapter 512: It Was Clearly You
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Unlike the great success of Lingdong Jewelry, the Song Corporation in A City faced some issues, failing several bids consecutively, which made Song Yi lose face.
After finally bribing the relevant personnel, he learned that several of the Song Corporation’s bid documents had been leaked.
Competitors offered bid prices only slightly lower than his, some even just two or three thousand less. Though not explicitly stated, it was implied that there might be an insider within the Song Corporation.
Song Yi couldn’t think of anyone who might be the insider except Song Fan, but no matter how much he investigated, Song Fan had nothing to do with the matter, yet the bid documents had indeed been stolen.
After several days of investigation, a security guard finally mentioned that Meng Xia had visited his office that evening.
Originally, he planned to let Meng Xia continue working in the company, but now Song Yi didn’t want that. He directly called Meng Xia back from the capital overnight.
“What are you doing? Xiao Xia is still pregnant!” Meng Yu felt sorry for Meng Xia, who had been struggling all day.
Meng Xia was now her cash cow, with all the money Charlie gave her each month going into Meng Yu’s pocket. She couldn’t let anything happen to Meng Xia.
Meng Xia thought it was because her collaboration with Xu Wen had angered Song Yi, so she didn’t dare say a word and kept wiping her tears. But thinking about the amulet in her belly, she felt a bit relieved.
After all, Song Fan’s press conference hadn’t been affected this time, so she wasn’t afraid of what Song Yi might say.
“Hmph, why don’t you ask her what she did? She caused losses to the Song Corporation!” Song Yi angrily smashed a teacup.
Meng Yu quickly signaled the servant next to her, and someone immediately cleaned up the broken pieces, then all the servants left.
“What happened? Xiao Xia is also a member of the Song Family, why would she do that?” Although she said this, Meng Yu was indeed worried.
Meng Xia was inexperienced, and if she had been influenced by someone and did something detrimental to the Song Corporation, Song Yi would definitely not forgive her.
She kept signaling to Meng Xia, meaning she should soften up first, “Xiao Xia, if you really did something, just tell your father. If you admit your mistake obediently, considering the child, your dad will forgive you this time.”
Meng Yu’s words were very straightforward, and Meng Xia naturally understood her meaning.
“Dad, I don’t know what happened? But if it’s my fault, I apologize first. Please don’t get too angry.” Meng Xia immediately held her waist and belly, looking a bit distressed, “I’m pregnant now, and my emotions are sometimes unstable. If there’s anything wrong, please forgive me.”
Seeing her like this, how could Song Yi not know what Meng Yu was up to? He indeed couldn’t do anything to the Brown family’s child, and besides, it wasn’t certain that Meng Xia was the one who stole the company’s secrets.
“Sit down and talk.” Although his expression was still fierce, Song Yi’s tone softened a bit, “What were you doing back at the company that night?”
Meng Xia knew he was talking about that day, so she planned to mix truth and lies in her answer, “Dad, you know what happened that day. I was mocked by my colleagues, so I took the afternoon off.”
She lowered her head, looking like a child who had done something wrong, “I didn’t dare to go home in the afternoon, afraid you’d scold me. So I thought of going in the evening to see if you were in the office and apologize to you.”
“Really?” Song Yi was half-believing, half-doubting. He didn’t think Meng Xia had the guts, but he still needed to ask clearly.
“Really!” Meng Xia quickly looked up, “I had a stomachache that day, and the security guards saw it. They helped me downstairs.”
This part matched what the security guards said. The guards, worried about being held accountable, didn’t mention that Meng Xia was left alone upstairs. Meng Xia was just betting that the guards hadn’t said anything.
Sure enough, hearing both sides of the story match, Song Yi felt relieved.
But suddenly, his phone rang, and an anonymous account sent him a video.
Song Yi thought it might be a virus, but seeing Meng Xia in the image with his office in the background, he quickly opened the video.
In the video, Meng Xia was seen entering the computer password, opening the computer in Song Yi’s office, and finding the surveillance system to copy the files.
Watching all this, Song Yi’s hands trembled.
Meng Yu noticed his abnormality, “What, what’s wrong with you?”
Meng Xia’s heart sank, but before she could say anything, Song Yi smashed another teacup.
“How dare you say this has nothing to do with you? You clearly copied the files from my computer, you wretch!”
