When she saw Chen Qiâs look, Ning Meng Yao understood. This person must think that nothing had happened at all, so why should she be so furious?
Ning Meng Yao looked at Chen Qi and said coldly: âChen Qi, are you thinking that Iâm making a huge fuss over a small matter because nothing happened now?â
Chen Qiâs face stiffened, he felt some uneasiness. How did she know what he was thinking?
âBoss, although it is a bit unpleasant to say this, but the truth is like this, I didnât do anything at all, and I didnât cause a great harm to the interests of the workshop.â His matter-of-fact tone made the last hope in Ning Meng Yaoâs heart disappear.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ning Meng Yao smiled coldly and looked at Chen Qi as she said sarcastically: âNo harm? Chen Qi, do you know that I can send you to the official because of your behavior?â
Since this man was so shameless, she would not give him face anymore.
âBoss, youâre sending me to the official?â He always thought that what he had done was just unethical, he never thought that he could be sent to the official.
If he was really sent to official, then his life would be over.
âWhat? Canât I?â
âBoss, I know I made a mistake, but I have been conscientious and dedicated to the workshop for the past two years. Even if I had made no contribution, I had still given my hard work in the job. You canât be so inhumane.â Chen Qi was anxious that he even dared to say such a thing.
Ning Meng Yao froze, then she took a glance at Chen Qi with a smile: âI have underestimated you, this is your real purpose, right? Conscientious and dedication? Your conscientious and dedication is to steal money from the workshop? Your conscientious and dedication ended in you doing things behind our backs?â
The things that Chen Qi did were not just as simple as stealing money. He also stole things from the workshop and sold them at a lower price. She did not care much about it because the quantity he took was not very large, and they were all dispensable things. But now, he actually dared to say such a thing to her, why would she even give face to such a person?
âI donât know what youâre saying, Boss.â
Ning Meng Yao sneered, âYou donât know what Iâm talking about? So, is it nice to steal things from the workshop? I bet you got quite some money from selling the things?â
Chen Qiâs expression changed. She even knew about this? But he had been very careful.
âItâs stealing if you took things without getting permission. It seems that there is nothing wrong with sending a thief to an official. Chen Qi, am I right?â
If Chen Qi still had some reliance just now, then he was really shocked now. Cold sweat rolled down from his forehead. Initially, he just took home some rewards from the workshop, but those things were sold by his family, and they got a lot of money from it, so they started asking him to get more. He disagreed at first. He did not remember what happened later on that made him agree to help. Ever since then he had stolen so much that he could not stop anymore.
âChen Qi, if you want to blame, blame on your greed. Qing Huai, bring this man out.â
Outside, Qing Huai heard Ning Meng Yaoâs voice and hurried in. At this moment Chen Qi was finally afraid, he knew that Ning Meng Yao was really angry this time and that she wanted to send him to the official.
âThis is just your accusation, you have no evidence.â Chen Qi said quickly.
That was right, no one knew what he was doing. Even if she knew, there was no evidence. Why should he be sent to see the official?
Ning Meng Yao glanced at Chen Qi, she held a piece of paper, and read it casually.
The paper contained when Chen Qi stole the things from the workshop, and when the items were sold, who they were sold by, and who bought the items, not a single detail was missing.
âDo you need me to continue reading this?â Ning Meng Yao asked indifferently, seeing Chen Qiâs sullen expression.
She had absolutely no tolerance to this kind of person, it was better done this way.
âChen Qi, you could have a splendid future. The reason why itâs gone, itâs all because of your actions.â
Chen Qi looked at Ning Meng Yao, he opened his mouth to say something, but he closed his mouth in the end, his eyes filled with self-deprecation and bitterness.
Ning Meng Yao was right, he could have a promising future, but he had ruined it himself, there was no one else to put the blame on.
