C447 Strong Sense of Self-protection
C447 Strong Sense of Self-protection
"Of course you can go." Sun Dongkai smiled and said, "Qiu Tong, don't worry about anything when you get back. Work hard. I'll come visit you when I'm free."
Qiu Tong didn't look at Sun Dongkai. She bowed to everyone with a smile and then left.
After Qiu Tong left, the newly formed investigation team immediately disintegrated into pieces. Everyone went back to their own offices, doing whatever they needed to do.
Sun Dongkai was filled with anger. He didn't go to the office, instead, he went straight to the coffee shop and called Cao Lee and me over.
"Tell me, what happened with your autograph?" Sun Dongkai glared at Cao Lee and me.
"Tell me, what happened to your signature?" Cao Lee looked at me with exasperation.
After listening to Sun Dongkai's story, Cao Lee clearly realized that her wishful thinking had failed. All her beautiful dreams had turned into mirages and all her hopes into naught.
In her eyes, it didn't matter if Sun Dongkai could take down the chairman, but the most important thing was whether he could take down Qiu Tong. From her strong desire for power and her uncontrollable jealousy and hatred for Qiu Tong, Cao Lee had been driven into a frenzy to defeat Qiu Tong.
"I —" I opened and closed my mouth. "I did what you asked me to. What happened to me?"
"What did you do?" Sun Dongkai looked at me.
"Director Cao got me to look for the signatures of 50 Publisher s and even gave me the funds for the operation. I immediately did as Director Cao requested." I said, "The 50 people on this list are definitely the newspaper delivery people. It's definitely not fake. If it's fake, I'm willing to vouch for it with my head. "
Cao Lee couldn't help but look at Sun Dongkai.
"You dare to guarantee with your head that these 50 people are all from our Issuing Company?" Sun Dongkai looked at me.
"What?" Someone from our group's Issuing Company? " When Director Cao told me, he said that as long as we can get the signature of the Publisher, it would be fine. He didn't say that it had to be from our corporation, and I didn't know what the purpose of the signature was at that time.
"What?" You — "Cao Lee glared at me." So what you're doing isn't even the Publisher of our group. Where did you do it all from? We're looking for our own Publisher, we have thousands of our own Publisher s, all over the place. How easy to find, you fool, why didn't you understand what I mean, no matter how we look, it's not our Publisher. "
"How would I know? You could have just explained it to me." I said, "I'm not an ascaris in your stomach. How would I know so much?"
"You – you're unconscious –" Cao Lee couldn't help but scold me.
"Alright, shut up —" Sun Dongkai stopped Cao Lee and looked at me. "Did you get this signature yourself?"
I lowered my head and said, "No, I arranged for a friend to get it."
"What?" Did you get someone else to do it? You're really lazy. " Cao Lee shouted.
"Why did you want to find someone else to do it? Why don't you do it yourself?" Sun Dongkai looked at me.
"Because I don't know what this signature was used for. I don't know what the consequences would be, but all the Publisher in Issuing Company know me. That's why I found a friend and told him to go to the streets at 5 in the morning to find the Publisher who delivered the newspapers and collect all 50 signatures. " I stammered.
"Hmph, you are worried about implicating the Leader, aren't you? You must be worried about implicating yourself as well." I can't tell, but you have a strong sense of self-protection at this critical moment. " Sun Dongkai snorted and said sarcastically.
"This is human nature, and self-protection is human nature. "It's just that you've made things worse by protecting yourself." Cao Lee looked at me with both anger and hate. "You, who are so disappointing, destroyed all of my dreams and dreams. The whole thing was ruined by you. "
Sun Dongkai didn't say anything. He just looked at me, his eyes were a bit uncertain, as though he was analyzing the details of what I said just now, trying to judge whether my words were true or false and to see if there were any mistakes.
"Since it is a random Publisher autograph, then, we will meet any family, and it is possible that we will meet any of them. There will be them all over the streets in the morning. " Sun Dongkai stared at me: "Then, why don't these 50 signatures belong to our group? This probability and probability is too low. Isn't this kind of thing too much of a coincidence? "
"I don't know."
"Don't know?" What's your explanation? How do you explain that? " Sun Dongkai lit up a cigarette and looked at me with a thoughtful expression: "Yi, I have always trusted you. I hope that you can give me a satisfactory explanation this time, don't waver my trust in you."
"I really don't know. Perhaps, this was just a coincidence." I pretended to be serious. "Boss Sun, I treat you and Director Cao sincerely. I definitely didn't lie, but I really don't know what happened."
"You really don't know? Accident? This kind of coincidence is way too coincidental, isn't it too unconvincing? " Sun Dongkai's eyes showed his distrust: "Oh Yi, I am very willing to believe that it was a coincidence, I am very willing to believe that you are sincere, but — I am real, don't let me down."
"I really made my friends casually look for Publisher on the streets to sign their names, so I gave them money just by signing my name. On the spot, my friend did. "Boss Sun, if you don't believe me, I can't help it!" I swear it.
Sun Dongkai's eyes revealed a huge disappointment, he shook his head and continued smoking.
At this time, Cao Lee blinked her eyes and suddenly said, "I know what's going on now. I see. "
"What's going on?" Sun Dongkai looked at Cao Lee.
"That day …" Cao Lee recalled, "That day. Printing House's engine suddenly malfunctioned in the middle of the night. After the repair and printing of the newspaper, which was more than an hour late than usual, the newspaper came out of the factory late. Naturally, the reporting process was delayed by more than an hour. Yes, it's like this, Printing House reported back to me during the day. "
I heaved a sigh of relief in my heart. The group Printing House machines often have problems, so the newspapers often procrastinate to leave the factory for this reason. I knew that I had long thought of using this as a reason to be questioned about the incident, but I purposely didn't say it.
I had thought it would take Cao Lee some time to recall this matter. If Cao Lee really couldn't remember, I would tactfully remind her of this point. I didn't expect her to remember so quickly.
"Is that for real?" Sun Dongkai said.
"Yes, it's true, it's true!" Cao Lee said dejectedly, "I didn't expect that things would come together. What a coincidence."
Sun Dongkai let out a breath as if he believed Cao Lee's words. He looked at me and nodded, "Then, it seems that Yi, I should believe you. My suspicions about you were incorrect. "Alright, then I'll apologize to you. I shouldn't have doubted you."
I made a grieving gesture. "The leader's suspicions are correct. The leader is not wrong. Actually, it's fine for me to suffer some grievances personally. It's just that I've ruined the task assigned to me by the Leader. My heart is in pain and I feel sorry for the trust and expectations the Leader has placed in me. I really don't have the face to see the Leader anymore. "
Sun Dongkai looked at Cao Lee. The two of them stared at each other and sighed at the same time.
"After working so hard for so many days, in the end, it was all for nothing." Cao Lee's voice was filled with anger and disappointment, "Ai. Our luck is so bad, we're really unlucky. "
There was even a hint of a sobbing tone in Cao Lee's voice, as if she felt wronged.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. It's already over." Sun Dongkai said: "Remember, no one is allowed to bring up this matter again, and no one is allowed to bring it up to anyone. You have to stand at a political level and strengthen your concept of secrecy. "Even my own family members are not allowed to mention it. Did you hear that?"
Cao Lee and I nodded, and Cao Lee said, "Then the next step …"
"I will arrange the next step, there's no need for you to worry!" Sun Dongkai glared at Cao Lee as if she had talked too much in front of me. How could he know that Cao Lee could not hold back her words? She had already told me about the secret fight between him and the chairman.
Cao Lee shut her mouth.
After that, Cao Lee went to get three servings of western food and everyone had lunch.
I was hungry and eating with relish.
Cao Lee and Sun Dongkai were dispirited. It was obvious that they had no taste. They just ate a few bites and then stopped eating.
When I saw that it was already afternoon, I directly went back to the Issuing Company. When I just arrived at the office, Yun Xiao came in smiling and reported Qiu Tong's good news to me. I patiently listened to Yun Wei finish talking, then smiled: "How about it, I say that Boss Qiu will be fine, do you not believe me?"
"Hey — Bro, you really are a great deity. Your foresight is like that of a god." Cloud laughed and praised me.
I said, "Ahhh, great deities are actually all just lies. If they're lucky, then their foresight is like a god. If they're mistaken, then they're just dog shit."
"Haha." Clouds covered his mouth and laughed happily.
"Where's Boss Qiu?" I asked the cloud.
"She's in the office. I went out for lunch with her at noon, but she didn't say anything. When we returned to the office, she locked herself in without a sound. I didn't disturb her." Clouds said.
I nodded. "Mm, alright, go back to your work."
After the clouds left, I went to Qiu Tong's office. The door was closed.
