It was an unknown number.
âAre you a designer at Green Source Design Institute? The design case for the new Siyi Company building that you previously participated in has been approved. Please contact us as soon as possible.â
Lu Weixi walked out the door and immediately called Xiaochen in the hallway: âDid you submit the design case to Siyi Company behind my back?â
âNo, not at all,â Xiaochen immediately shook his head.
âSo did someone pick it up when you threw it in the trash? Itâs not some scammer again, is it?â
âImpossible. The pile of documents I threw away were just my research on director Liaoâs preferences, the background materials for Simon Whiteâs design case. I checked it, the design case wasnât in there at all. And thereâs no personal information about you either. At work, your computer can only be accessed with your work card. Xiaoqian and I donât have the authority, we canât even see it.â
Lu Weixi pondered while holding her phone. The design case exists only in her personal laptop and the companyâs computer. The final draft she printed and tore up herself, and only she herself or the boss has permission to unlock the company computer. So had the boss done it?
âHave you mentioned my participation in the call for submissions to the boss?â
âNo, Xiaoqian and I certainly havenât.â
This was strange. Who could it be then? If it wasnât leaked from the companyâs computer, then it must have been her personal laptop. Her ownâ¦
A thought flashed through Lu Weixiâs mind. She certainly wasnât foolish enough to think that it was Qin Zhigu. Her computer⦠it was always kept in her room with Qin Zhiyou. Qin Zhigu would not have snuck into her room to snoop through her computer files and help her apply to participate.
That only left one person, Qin Zhiyou.
Without the proactive actions of changing her momâs hospital ward, changing her care-giver, and Dr. Zhao, she might not have been able to think about Qin Zhiyou. But as the saying goes in detective novels, âOnce you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.â
When she entered the hospital ward, her mom didnât know that Qin Zhiyou was the one who arranged for the transfer. She only smiled and told her daughter that the environment was indeed nice, but it would probably cost more. Since her mother was satisfied, there was nothing more to be said.
Lu Weixi stayed and chatted with her mother for a while before leaving the ward. When she reached the stairwell, Zhao Zihao was there too. He greeted her with a bright smile: âMiss Lu. Here to see your Aunt again?â
âDr. Zhao,â Lu Weixi responded immediately.
âThe ward is nice. Your motherâs condition is also well regulated.â
Perhaps she had been overly sensitive lately, but she felt there was an underlying meaning in Zhao Zihaoâs words. Lu Weixi laughed: âDr. Zhao, donât tease me.â
âHow could I? I heard that next month, a few American cancer treatment experts are coming over for an academic exchange. Your Aunt is quite lucky.â Lu Weixi looked up at Zhao Zihao as she spoke, the warm smile still on his face, framed by his gold-rimmed glasses.
She had no quarrels with Zhao Zihao; he had generally taken good care of her mother. But something felt off about today.
Maybe the nurse was right, that he felt threatened by the arrival of the American experts and was upset that her mother might be taken under their care.
But the expert consultation would only be temporary, in the end, the daily care would fall back to Yan City. There was no difference.
Just as they were speaking, the elevator door suddenly opened, and Qin Zhiyou strolled out, walking directly towards them..
