Chapter 399: You Get What You Deserve V (1/2)

Isn’t that the tender Thunderbolt Corp was aiming for?!

She definitely did not send an email of any kind to Xiang Jinxi. It was almost impossible for Ge Yu to win the tender. She had studied the project earlier and judged that their company could not hope to compete with Thunderbolt Corp.

However… it seemed that Ge Yu had actually been awarded with the project!

Clearly, someone was trying to frame her.

“There seems to be a misunderstanding here.” Lu Zhaoyang looked into Xiang Jinxi’s eyes and said. “I sent you some information about the project in the Golden Territory quite a while ago, basically explaining that it is very unlikely for Ge Yu to get the project and not to waste time on it. As for winning the bid, I believe I was framed.”

Xiang Jinxi put down his glass and said calmly, “Even so, Ge Yu has been awarded with the Golden Territory project. Just do your best with the project and leave the rest to me.”

“Understood.” She hardly tasted the food she swallowed that night and felt deeply unsettled.

Lu Zhaoyang returned to her apartment after dinner without enjoying even a sip of her red wine. She had just reached her apartment block when she noticed Huo Yunting’s car behind her.

Huo Yunting had been visiting every day recently. He would have dinner with her, but also have her for supper too.

She parked her car and walked to him. He looked like his usual nonchalant self, but still she asked carefully, “You had a bad day?”

Huo Yunting put an arm around her waist and gave her a light peck on the lips.

What the… I’m being serious here…

“The project at the Golden Territory… I didn’t do it.” She did not know if he would believe her.

The smile on Huo Yunting’s face was in direct contrast to her nervousness, but it comforted her like a view of the ocean.

After a while, he murmured quietly, “I believe you.”

Having known her for years, Huo Yunting knew exactly the kind of person she was.

This was not her doing.
