When the audience heard this, they felt very strange. Why did they not check the surveillance cameras when such an expensive item was lost? Why did they make such a big fuss instead?

Gu Cheng continued to speak, “The reason why we didn’t check the surveillance cameras is because everyone here is an elite in their respective fields. Even if they leave the Gu Corporation, they will still develop very well. Even if they really like this necklace, they will definitely be able to earn money to buy it in a few days.

“But what happened today, I’m not willing to bet on everyone’s innocence. Otherwise, it’ll be bad for me and everyone else.”

Fang Qing could not help but sigh at Gu Cheng’s art of speaking. After this incident, no matter what the outcome was, there would always be people who would come to a distance from the company and the higher-ups. However, this sentence instantly closed the distance between the two and cleared up the misunderstanding. However, in reality, Fang Qing knew very well that the surveillance cameras on the floor were most likely broken.

At the same time, she thought of Chicken’s words and saw the workers upstairs. Fang Qing slowly came back to her senses. This incident was not aimed at the Gu Corporation, but at her, Fang Qing.

At this moment, Fang Qing gradually knew who was responsible for this incident. Fang Qing secretly made up her mind to let her know what it meant to steal a chicken and end up losing rice.

Gu Cheng continued, “But if no one returns the necklace, I have no choice but to send out the surveillance cameras and take legal action.”

Gu Cheng’s words were like a rock, hard and firm. It was both convincing and harsh.

But even so, he still had no proof. It could not dispel everyone’s doubts.

At this moment, Cheng Zheng’s men came back. They whispered a few words in front of Cheng Zheng and handed him something that looked like a black velvet bag.

Cheng Zheng walked to Gu Cheng’s side with an ugly expression. He handed the black velvet bag to Gu Cheng and whispered a few words to him as well.

“Ruwen’s necklace has been found… in the drawer under Miss Fang’s desk.” Cheng Zheng’s voice was originally very soft, but because there was a microphone on the podium, the venue was extremely quiet, the microphone was then transmitted to everyone’s ears.

Previously, they did not believe the words of a girl, now the whole room exploded in uproar.

However, when Fang Qing heard this, she shook her head as if she was mocking herself. After all, she already knew that they were coming for her. If she allowed herself to pass this hurdle so easily, it would be ridiculous.

Previously, because it was only Chicken and Fang Qing’s words, it was impossible to objectively discern the truth. However, now that it was sent by Cheng Zheng’s subordinates, it was equivalent to having actual physical evidence.

Fang Qing did not say anything, but Gu Cheng spoke first, “An internal investigation team will be set up for this matter. We will wait until the investigation results are announced before making a decision. Before that, Fang Qing and Chicken will be suspended from duty to accept all investigations by the company. I, Gu Cheng, will definitely give everyone an explanation within three days.”

This sentence surprised Fang Qing. Her ‘crime’ was clearly already in evidence, but Gu Cheng did not choose to call the police and instead dealt with her problem in a relatively gentle manner. Although she did not know what his ultimate goal was, Fang Qing’s heart still felt warm.

The necklace had been found. Originally, if Gu Cheng wanted to protect Fang Qing, he did not need to care about who stole it. However, it was because of his touching words that he had to give everyone an explanation.

This matter quickly spread to the Wen family’s ears. Regarding the fact that their product was almost stolen from the Gu Corporation, the Wen family attached great importance to it. Wen Yan, who was also a high-ranking official, even said that the person who broke the relationship between the two companies must be caught and brought to justice, the subtext was that she would also go to the Gu Corporation to check on the situation.

At this moment, in Wen Yan’s room, Wen Yan seemed to still have lingering fear as he said to Xu Yue, “Yueyue, will this matter really not be discovered?”

Xu Yue’s eyes flashed with a crafty gaze. “Don’t worry, I’ve already made the arrangements. There will definitely be no mistakes.”

Xu Yue’s words were like reassurance, and Wen Yan gradually calmed down. In addition, Wen Yan could not wait to see Fang Qing’s bad ending. She also looked at Xu Yue and smiled, as if she was celebrating the success of their plan ahead of time.

The Gu family was also in an uproar. After Gu Lun and Xiao Yun heard about this matter, Xiao Yun kept badmouthing Fang Qing in Gu Lun’s ear, “Master, I’ve already said that she’s not a good person. She’s from the countryside and doesn’t know the immensity of Heaven and Earth. She dares to take anything. If you let such a woman into the Gu family, I’m afraid she’ll have a hard time in the future.”
