Chapter 519: Someone Is Done

Song Fan was about to hack into the surveillance system to see who had stolen the files when a group of people walked into the conference room.

“Miss Song, you must have seen the news?” Fang Si said with schadenfreude, “The company has encountered such a big issue, it must be investigated. Otherwise, Gu Corporation will suffer losses, and no one wants to see that.”

She gave a signal to the man beside her. A man in a suit immediately stepped forward, “Miss Song, we are from the security department of Gu Medical Company’s team. You are suspected of stealing important company data, so…”

“I stole?” Song Fan lazily sat in her chair and extended her hand, “Where’s the evidence?”

The security personnel, knowing Song Fan’s close relationship with Gu Chen, maintained a very polite attitude, “Miss Song, the lab staff have been with Gu Corporation for years. You are the only one who just joined.”

“So, you suspect me?” Song Fan asked coldly.

Zhao Min immediately refuted, “It wasn’t Song Fan, it definitely wasn’t her!”

“You only know a person’s face, not their heart, Zhao Min. I think you’re confused by your experiments,” Fang Si didn’t want to give Song Fan any chance to defend herself. “There have never been issues before in Gu Corporation, which has been around for decades, nor in the research institute. But now this problem arises as soon as she arrives. If it wasn’t her, who else could it be?”

Zhao Min’s face turned red, but all she could say was, “It definitely wasn’t her!”

“Just because you say so? An investigation is necessary,” Fang Si signaled to the security personnel, “What are you standing there for? I’m the department manager, and this matter is your responsibility to investigate. Even President Gu can’t say anything against this. Do you think he would watch the company suffer losses in vain?”

“It’s not possible that it’s her!” Zhao Min got agitated before Song Fan could respond, “According to our country’s law, if there’s a doubt, the suspect is presumed innocent. You can’t arrest her; that’s illegal. If you have evidence, call the police! Besides, why would Song Fan betray the company? What benefit would it bring her?”

Fang Si looked at the two with disdain, “For money, of course. She sells the research report to the other party, and they give her money. What’s there to think about? We’re talking millions!”

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at her incredulously.

“Really? Xinrui offered that much?” Song Fan looked at Fang Si playfully. She already knew who the insider was.

She sighed inwardly. Indeed, Gu Chen was a disaster for attracting admirers, and every hurdle she faced had the “contributions” of Gu Chen’s admirers!

Realizing her slip, Fang Si hurriedly defended herself, “I just thought, it might be that much.”

“Are you insane? Forget millions; even tens of millions or billions, Song Fan wouldn’t care!” Zhao Min, with hands on her hips, stood protectively in front of Song Fan. “Did you even do your homework? Song Fan’s family is wealthy. Do you know how much her jewelry brand costs? Would she sell out for this amount?”

Song Fan gave an encouraging look to Zhao Min, realizing that once Zhao Min found her stride, her ability to argue was impressive.

“Only someone as shortsighted as you would think millions is a large amount. Song Fan’s projects abroad are worth at least millions, and that’s in dollars!”

Encouraged, Zhao Min continued, “Are you blind? President Gu treats her so well; she’s clearly the future Mrs. Gu. The Gu Family will be hers; why would she need to give her money to others? Use your brain for once!”

Hearing her increasingly exaggerated words, Song Fan could only cough to hide her embarrassment.

Fang Si, however, felt deeply insulted, her face turning red with rage, trembling all over.

“She, as Mrs. Gu? In her dreams!” She pushed the people around her, “Aren’t you from the security department? As the department manager, I order you to arrest Song Fan now! She leaked the company’s secrets!”

“And who are you to give orders? I dare anyone to try arresting her.” Gu Chen had come to find Song Fan for lunch. She had praised the dumplings from the canteen last time, so he had specially ordered some.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the lab, he witnessed this scene.

“President Gu!” Fang Si hurried over, looking immensely wronged, “Song Fan leaked company secrets. Now Xinrui wants to produce the same drug. She must be brought to justice, or Gu Corporation will be finished!”

“I don’t know if Gu Corporation will be finished,” Gu Chen smiled coldly, “But someone is definitely finished.”
