Summer Kiss

Who tampered with Chapter 37?

Shen Xici remained silent. What kind of hacker technology could recover the previously deleted records? He seemed to have never truly understood Fu Xicheng.

……

The next day, as soon as Jiang Yuning stepped out of the elevator, she saw Meng Shuyu leaning against the wall, seemingly waiting for someone.

When Meng Shuyu saw Jiang Yuning arrive, her eyes lit up. She quickly pulled her aside and whispered, "Jiang Yuning, you kept such a big thing from me. Are we still best friends?"

Jiang Yuning was completely bewildered and couldn't understand what Meng Shuyu was saying at all.

"What have I been hiding from you?"

Looking at Jiang Yuning's calm demeanor, Meng Shuyu silently thought to herself, "Keep pretending, keep pretending!"
"Now the whole office knows you have a boyfriend, Jiang Yuning, you're really not being fair."

Jiang Yuning was slightly stunned. She had just agreed to be Fu Xicheng's girlfriend yesterday, so how did everyone in the office find out overnight? Who leaked the news?
Jiang Yuning was puzzled, "How did you know?"

Meng Shuyu put her hands on her hips and pushed Jiang Yuning to the office door. She pointed to the roses on the desk not far away.

"If it wasn't your boyfriend who sent you the flowers, then who else sent you them?"

Ignoring Meng Shuyu behind her, Jiang Yuning walked to her desk.

What comes into view is a large bunch of vibrant roses, with glistening dewdrops still clinging to the petals, as if they had just been cut from the flowerbed.

The roses emitted a sweet fragrance, and Jiang Yuning bent down to smell them, her heartbeat quickening slightly.

She had a gut feeling that the bouquet of roses must have been sent by Fu Xicheng.

She received an unexpected surprise early in the morning, and at this moment, she seemed to be in a good mood.

Meng Shuyu noticed that Jiang Yuning was somewhat absent-minded, so she gently nudged her arm.

She chuckled, "Don't deny it. I sent you milk tea before, and now I'm sending you flowers. Jiang Yuning, you've kept this from me very well."

Jiang Yuning sat in her office chair, stroking the rose in her hand, a beautiful smile curving her lips.

"I'm not lying to you, I only agreed to it yesterday."

You only agreed yesterday?
Meng Shuyu suddenly remembered someone, even though she had never met that mysterious man.

"Could it be that Mr. Fu?"

Jiang Yuning smiled faintly and remained silent.

Meng Shuyu touched her chin; it seemed she had guessed correctly.

"Jiang Yuning, the director wants to see you in his office." Lin Yao walked in from outside, her tone not very friendly.

Jiang Yuning did not respond to her, but went directly to the director's office.

The design director cut to the chase, saying, "Xiao Jiang, Qin Susu has resigned, so the list of invitees to the designer exchange meeting is one person short. I'm planning to put your name on the list."

Jiang Yuning was taken aback; she already had an invitation to the exchange meeting in her hand.

She thought for a moment and said, "Director, give the invitation to Meng Shuyu. I got an invitation from another source."

The design director was stunned. Logically speaking, it would be difficult to obtain an invitation to the International Designers Exchange Conference through other channels. He was somewhat doubtful whether the invitation in Jiang Yuning's hand was genuine.

He asked again, "Are you sure you want to give your spot to Meng Shuyu?"

Jiang Yuning nodded and said firmly, "I'm sure."

Back in the office, Jiang Yuning tapped on Meng Shuyu's desk. Meng Shuyu looked up, leaned closer to Jiang Yuning, and whispered, "Yuning, what's wrong?" Jiang Yuning glanced around and said in a very low voice, "I told the director that I gave you the spot at the exchange meeting, so Shuyu, congratulations on getting a great deal too."

Meng Shuyu let out an excited howl and hugged Jiang Yuning tightly, saying, "Sister, why are you so good to me?"

Jiang Yuning tapped her forehead and said in a low voice, "This is the company, be mindful of your image."

Meng Shuyu said, "Okay."

Jiang Yuning returned to her workstation, opened her phone, and saw the WeChat message Fu Xicheng had sent her. She chuckled softly with delight.

She edited a text and sent it to Fu Xicheng, then began to work seriously.

About an hour later, an email popped up in her inbox. Jiang Yuning opened it and found the revised list of names in the invitation to the International Designers Exchange Conference.

She scrolled through her mouse, and when she saw that Meng Shuyu's name wasn't on the list, she felt something was off.

She quickly scrolled through the mouse, and when she saw Lin Yao's name appear at the end of the list, Jiang Yuning frowned. Who on earth had tampered with this?

She tilted her head and saw Meng Shuyu's disappointed look. She walked over to her and pulled her out of the office.

"Why the long face? I'm going to find the director right now and ask him why."

Meng Shuyu whispered, "Yu Ning, don't go looking for the director."

Before Jiang Yuning could even step into the design department director's office, the office door opened from the inside.

Director Wang of the Design Department said, "Xiao Jiang, I was just about to come find you. Since you're both here, I'll tell you the truth. I'm sure I submitted Meng Shuyu's name. The list has changed; someone must have altered it without my permission."

"I advise you to let this matter rest and not pursue it any further."

Jiang Yuning was not happy. The spot that clearly belonged to Meng Shuyu ended up going to Lin Yao, which she felt was too unfair.

She always remembered that on her first day at the company, it was Meng Shuyu who showed her around the environment.

She always remembered the company's employee policy: if any abuse of power occurred within the company, she could report it directly to the president's office.

Jiang Yuning believed that this was not something the director could handle, so she didn't say much to him.

"Director, I understand, but sometimes we can't just swallow our anger. What belongs to someone should belong to them."

Meng Shuyu tugged at Jiang Yuning's arm, "Yuning, it's better to avoid trouble. I think we should just let it go."

Jiang Yuning didn't want to let it go like that. She had been in a lot of contact with Fu Xicheng recently and had come to understand many things. She felt that she couldn't just let it go like that.

"Shuyu, you go back first. I will definitely handle this matter for you."

Jiang Yuning walked to the elevator and pressed the button.

Upon seeing this, Meng Shuyu quickly followed her onto the elevator.

“Yu Ning, we’ll face anything together. If we don’t get a spot, we’ll take the blame together.”

Jiang Yuning nodded. She wouldn't tell Meng Shuyu that if the president got angry, she would take all the blame upon herself.

The elevator slowly ascended. Meng Shuyu stood inside the elevator, and suddenly, she grabbed Jiang Yuning's hand, her heart filled with fear and unease.

"Yu Ning, I'm a little nervous. Maybe we should go downstairs instead?"

Jiang Yuning showed no intention of going back. "Now that you're up here, don't you want to see the president?"
