Qin Ran was stunned. This brat actually dared to talk to him like that.

"you……"

"What do you mean, 'you'? This is none of your business. Shut your mouth."

At this moment, Tian Lina was extremely annoyed.

She didn't think much of it after Qin Ran refused to go to her house last time.

Perhaps Qin Ran was too busy.

But Qin Ran never contacted her again after that.

Later, Tian Lina sent someone to investigate and discovered that Qin Ran had another woman by his side.

Moreover, the two are already living together.

This person is naturally Su Qingyi.

Tian Lina was furious when she found out; Qin Ran was deceiving her feelings.

Looking at Qin Ran, he could roughly guess why Tian Lina treated him this way.

He didn't want to say anything more in front of Chu Qingcheng.

We'll talk about this later.

"Chairman Tian, ​​there must be some misunderstanding here. I will investigate the matter thoroughly," Chu Qingcheng said.

"What else is there to investigate? The answer is right there in the riddle. Stop pretending. I'll tell you the truth: the reason the product formula was published is because I applied for a patent. I'm not afraid of anyone stealing it."

"I'm giving you two options: either compensate me for my losses, or you remove this product from all shelves and issue a statement of apology."

"Or, we can take legal action. I'll sue you and the female celebrity who endorses us. Here's the compensation agreement; take a look."

Tian Lina simply tossed the contract over.

Chu Qingcheng opened it and carefully read through it.

The compensation amounted to a staggering 300 million.

She was stunned when she saw the number.

But she can't make a decision right now.

We must investigate this matter thoroughly.

"Chairman Tian, ​​I know you're very angry right now, but I really didn't know anything about this. Don't worry, I will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly. If it really is our fault, we will compensate you according to the contract," Chu Qingcheng said sincerely.

Tian Lina stood up and said, "Then I'll give you two days. If you don't give me a reply after two days, I'll have my lawyer contact you."

After saying that, Tian Lina glanced at Qin Ran and left.

After she left, the entire reception room became much quieter.

Chu Qingcheng smoothed her hair, looking somewhat helpless.

Qin Ran said, "It's obvious that the R&D department stole the raw materials for this product. They're professionals, don't they understand that if someone publishes the raw materials, they must have patented them? This is clearly a deliberate attempt to harm you."

Chu Qingcheng's face was grim: "I'll go to the R&D department right now to hold them accountable."

Qin Ran followed.

He knew things weren't that simple.

There must be someone behind this.

It's probably Sun Qing and Chu Wan'er again.

Not to mention Chu Qingcheng, even Qin Ran felt exhausted.

As the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you.

It's scary that she keeps dwelling on this.

No one can stand being punched in the back out of the blue.

Soon, the two arrived at the research and development department.

They went directly to the office of manager Xu Manli.

"Manager Xu, tell me what's going on here!" Chu Qingcheng placed the two products directly on the table.

Xu Manli calmly got up to check.

After reading it, she looked at Chu Qingcheng with an innocent expression.

"Mr. Chu, is there a problem?"

"Can't you see that the formulas and designs of these two products are exactly the same?"

"So what? The formulas for cosmetics on the market are all pretty much the same now, that's normal." Xu Manli didn't think she had done anything wrong.

Chu Qingcheng's expression grew increasingly grim: "This product is a facial cleanser from Dongfang Yuncuitang. Our formula is exactly the same as theirs, and their formula is patented. How could you just use it directly?"

"Let me clarify, I did not plagiarize. The formula was developed by ourselves, it just happened to be the same as someone else's. Moreover, you signed the decision book at the time, and I only allowed the factory to produce it after obtaining your consent," Xu Manli said righteously.

Chu Qingcheng pursed her thin lips.

She was speechless when the other person said that.

Because the signature was indeed hers.

Chu Qingcheng didn't say anything and turned to leave.

In this situation, nothing she said mattered.

Qin Ran glanced at Xu Manli and then left.

We'll keep this woman for now and deal with her later.

Qin Ran quickly caught up with Chu Qingcheng: "This matter is not that simple. That Manager Xu is definitely lying. She is deliberately trying to harm you. There must be someone behind her."

"I know, but I signed the decision document back then. I agreed, and that's why they let the factory produce it. I didn't expect her to do this..." Chu Qingcheng said helplessly.

Qin Ran sighed: "Give me some time, I'll go find Tian Lina."

"You're not familiar with her, are you? I saw the way she treated you just now." Chu Qingcheng looked at Qin Ran.

"There was a misunderstanding before, I'll explain it later. Let me tell you, if this isn't handled properly, it will be very troublesome. Even if you compensate, the matter won't be over."

"You hired Li Yuyan as your spokesperson a while ago. If the products are all taken off the shelves now because of you, it will affect her reputation. Her management company will hold her accountable, and you'll have to pay compensation," Qin Ran said seriously.

Chu Qingcheng's face turned ashen upon hearing this: "I'm really falling into one pitfall after another. When will this ever end?"

"Don't get upset. I'm going to find Tian Lina now. Wait for my news."

At the same time, Chu Zhenlong's assistant came over: "President Chu, Chairman Chu wants you to go to the conference room."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Seeing this, Qin Ran said, "Never mind, I'll go with you. I'll go find Tian Lina later."

Afterwards, the two went to the conference room.

The Chu family members are all present.

Qin Ran strode forward and pulled out a chair to sit down.

Chu Wan'er and Sun Qing both looked at her with disdain.

"Qin Ran, you really don't consider yourself an outsider," Sun Qing scoffed.

"I know why you called Chu Qingcheng over. Let me say a few words. It's obvious that Chu Qingcheng has been framed again."

"How could that Ms. Xu, as the manager of the R&D department, not know that other people's formulas are patented? She used it directly, which is obviously intentional, trying to harm Chu Qingcheng," Qin Ran said, crossing her legs.

Sun Qing sneered, "Then let me ask you, what good does this do for Manager Xu? Is she stupid enough to push herself into a fire pit?"

"She was instructed by someone to shift all the blame onto Chu Qingcheng. Who instructed her knows perfectly well," Qin Ran said, glancing sideways at Sun Qing.

"Qin Ran, don't make baseless accusations. According to you, every mistake Chu Qingcheng makes is at my instigation? I'm supposed to pay for her incompetence and all her mistakes?"

Before Qin Ran could speak, Chu Zhenlong interrupted, "Alright, you two stop arguing. Qingcheng, have you gone to see Manager Xu yet?"

"Yes, I just went there."

"What did she say?"

Chu Qingcheng told everyone what Xu Manli had said.

Chu Zhenlong's face turned very ugly after hearing this.

Regardless of whether Xu Manli was at fault, Chu Qingcheng definitely bears the main responsibility.

Sun Qing sneered: "Did you all hear that? She admitted it herself. The decision was signed by Chu Qingcheng, and the R&D department only had the factory process it after getting her approval."

"She's now a vice president, overseeing so many projects. The Bashar brand was entrusted to her, and she was also sent to conduct the site visit to Leta Lake. She has two more projects in her hands!"

"With so many projects under her control, it's no wonder things went wrong. Just because my daughter was able to do it doesn't mean she can. Now that this has happened, she has to bear the main responsibility."

Sun Qing finished speaking and gave a cold laugh.

She didn't expect to trip up Chu Qingcheng in one go.

But she has plenty of time and means.

She was determined to wear Chu Qingcheng down little by little.

I'll find fault with her every day and work her to death.

Let her give up.

Qin Ran can't be by her side 24 hours a day.

After Sun Qing finished speaking, the Chu family members remained silent.

Everyone looked unwell.

Chu Qingcheng is indeed a key person that the Chu family is currently cultivating.

But with so many projects given to her, she was finding it difficult to manage...
