Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Capítulo 1511: Chapter 1504: Company Traitor

Seeing Xue Man’s appearance, Lu Tianxing felt a wave of satisfaction. Making a woman shy with just his gaze seemed to indicate his skills had improved considerably. If he could evolve to making a woman ascend to the heavens with a glance, that would be the legendary Great Success Realm.

“What, no one is coming forward to admit it?”

Ten minutes later, Bai Zhiqing spoke again, her gaze as cold as it could be, like a sharp sword piercing through to a slightly plump middle-aged man in a suit not far away: “Minister Jin, why is your face covered in sweat? Is this office very hot?”

Feeling Bai Zhiqing’s gaze land on him, the middle-aged man named Jin Quan shivered instinctively. He trembled a bit as he raised his hand, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. His eyes couldn’t hide the look of terror. It wasn’t that his mind lacked firmness, but rather Bai Zhiqing’s gaze was so oppressive, it felt like a mountain was pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.

“Minister Jin, why aren’t you speaking? I’m asking if this office is very hot?” Bai Zhiqing looked at Jin Quan, speaking once more.

“It… it is very hot,” Jin Quan trembled slightly, stammering out his words.

“Very hot?”

Upon hearing Jin Quan’s answer, a mocking smile appeared on Bai Zhiqing’s face, her voice suddenly turning icy: “Minister Jin, are you sure this office is hot, or is your heart guilty? You’ve been a long-time employee at Bai’s Group. I really didn’t expect you’d betray us for money. Minister Jin, has Bai’s Group done anything wrong to you? Why would you betray us? You’ve let me down.”

“What, Minister Jin is a traitor to the company? How is that possible? Could the chairman be mistaken?”

“Yeah, Mr. Bai, could you be wrong? Minister Jin has been with the company for a long time, how could he betray us?”

“This can’t be possible!”

Bai Zhiqing’s words were like a bomb thrown into a lake, instantly causing a massive uproar.

Everyone’s faces showed a hint of shock. Many of them were long-time employees of Bai’s Group, as was Jin Quan. It could be said that he had devoted a lot of effort to Bai’s Group, treating it as a second home.

Bai’s Group had encountered several stock market upheavals, and it was often Jin Quan who had intervened so that Bai’s Group could smoothly navigate the difficulties. The rise of Bai’s Group couldn’t ignore the contributions of Jin Quan, Minister of Finance. But now Bai Zhiqing was directly pointing the finger of betrayal at Jin Quan, which was surprising and hard to accept. Nobody expected Jin Quan to betray Bai’s Group.

Upon hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Jin Quan’s face turned pale, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead, forcing a smile, “Mr. Bai, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t understand what you mean by this.”

“You don’t understand what I mean, Minister Jin? Are you still trying to deny it?”

Bai Zhiqing’s voice immediately filled with indifference, “Ten days ago, Bai’s Group was engaging in financial warfare with Dingtian Group and Jiang Feng Group. During this period, someone secretly leaked our information. Whenever we made a move, the other side was already prepared, setting traps for us to fall into. Minister Jin, do you dare to say that you had nothing to do with this?”

Bai Zhiqing’s gaze, as sharp as a blade, fell on Jin Quan, with an air of incisiveness. She was well aware of Jin Quan’s contributions to Bai’s Group; otherwise, she wouldn’t have given him a chance—instead, she would have brought the police here directly. However, Jin Quan’s denial had completely exhausted her patience. Contributions were contributions, but they couldn’t offset the fault. If someone makes a mistake, they must pay the price.

“Mr. Bai, I…”

Before Jin Quan could finish his sentence, Bai Zhiqing interrupted him, “Minister Jin, are you not going to admit it? Do you think I can’t find any evidence? Can you tell me where the extra fifty million in your bank account came from? Can you explain why the account that transferred the money to you comes from Dingtian Group? If you’re still unwilling to admit it, then this internal bank information and these photos should be more than enough to explain everything, right!”

As she spoke, Bai Zhiqing picked up a folder from the table and threw it in front of Jin Quan.

Jin Quan looked at Bai Zhiqing’s frost-like gaze, trembling as he picked up the folder from the table and began to flip through it. As he looked at the photos, his whole person felt as if struck by lightning, turning ashen instantly. Without even looking at the internal bank documents, just those photos were enough to prove everything.

The photos were of his secret meetings with Dingtian Group employees. He couldn’t believe Bai Zhiqing had managed to gather so much information in such a short time.

“Minister Jin, Jin Quan, do you have anything else to say now?”

Bai Zhiqing’s face was as cold as frost, her whole body emanating a bone-chilling coldness, “Jin Quan, you’ve been an old employee of Bai’s Group, with hard work and great contributions. Occasionally taking some money, I could turn a blind eye, after all, too clean a water has no fish, I can understand. But I didn’t expect you to ally with outsiders against your own company. Jin Quan, do you have anything else to say?”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s frost-like words, Jin Quan’s body began to tremble violently. He suddenly pushed away the chair in front of him, rushed to Bai Zhiqing’s side, and knelt down on the ground with a thud, pleading, “Chairman, I’m sorry, I was blinded by greed. Chairman, please give me another chance, please, I was really blinded by greed.”

“Blinded by greed?”

Bai Zhiqing’s face showed a cold smile as she said in a chilling voice, “Have you been blinded by greed so much that you would put Bai’s Group in jeopardy for money? Minister Jin, I, Bai Zhiqing, believe I have done nothing to wrong you. I didn’t expect that you’d want to destroy Bai’s Group for money. You ask me to spare you; how can I? I gave you a chance, and you didn’t cherish it, so don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Mr. Bai, I’ve worked tirelessly for Bai’s Group. How many times has Bai’s Group faced stock market upheavals? Wasn’t it me who helped get through those times? Even if I haven’t achieved great things, I’ve worked hard! Are you really going to be so ruthless this time?”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, a hint of ferocity appeared on Jin Quan’s face, carrying a trace of hysteria. Bai Zhiqing’s words clearly indicated turning him over to the police, and once in their hands, his life would be utterly ruined. Even if he gets out later, his life would still be over; no company would be willing to accept someone who sold company secrets.

“Ruthless?”

Bai Zhiqing closed her eyes, took a deep breath, opened them again, and said coldly, “Minister Jin, this phrase should be directed at you. You’re the one trying to destroy Bai’s Group, not me. I gave you a chance, and you squandered it. You have no one to blame but yourself. Moreover, over the years, sitting in the position of the head of the finance department, don’t you know how much you’ve embezzled? Enough for your family to live comfortably for a lifetime.”

With that, Bai Zhiqing turned to Lu Tianxing beside her and said, “Assistant Lu, the police should be here. Go outside and invite them in.”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s instruction, Lu Tianxing nodded, said nothing, and turned directly to walk out of the meeting room.

“Mr. Lu!”

As Lu Tianxing stepped out of the meeting room, a spirited voice rang in his ears.

Instinctively turning his head, he immediately saw a broad-browed, large-eyed young man radiating righteousness, wearing a police uniform, standing there with several other officers.

Lu Tianxing’s face immediately broke into a smile. Glancing at the emblem on the leading officer’s shoulder, he smiled and said, “Officer Zhao, are you leading the team today? Congratulations on your promotion.”

This young man was none other than Xue Bing’s former colleague, Zhao Shan.

“Haha, Mr. Lu, you’re just joking.”

Zhao Shan laughed, looking at Lu Tianxing, and said, “Mr. Lu, I wonder what happened at your company that requires our intervention.”

“We have a traitor who sold company secrets, which is why we’ve called you all here. Please, our chairman is waiting for you.”

Lu Tianxing made an inviting gesture and turned to walk inside.

“Police!”

Kneeling on the ground, begging for Bai Zhiqing’s forgiveness, Jin Quan’s face changed drastically when he saw the police following Lu Tianxing inside. He initially thought Bai Zhiqing was only bluffing, but he never expected she would really call the police. If he fell into their hands, this life of his would be as good as over.

“Bai Zhiqing, I never thought you’d be so ruthless. Since you want me dead, I won’t let you have it easy, I’ll fight with you….”

A trace of a ferocious expression suddenly appeared on Jin Quan’s face. He abruptly stood up from the ground and lunged at the nearby Bai Zhiqing. However, before he could get close, Xue Man, who had been prepared, appeared beside Bai Zhiqing, and with a swift kick, sent Jin Quan flying away, leaving him unable to get up for a long time.

“Get him.”

Zhao Shan frowned slightly and gestured to his colleagues behind him to hold Jin Quan down, then pulled out an arrest warrant from his pocket, handing it to Jin Quan. “Mr. Jin Quan, correct? Bai’s Group reported that you leaked company secrets. Please come with us to assist in the investigation.”

As the words fell, Zhao Shan glanced at some documents on the meeting table and said to Bai Zhiqing, “Mr. Bai, I wonder if these materials you’ve investigated can be handed over to us.”

“No problem, Officer Zhao, thank you,” Bai Zhiqing said, looking at Zhao Shan.

“Mr. Bai, you’re too polite. It’s our duty. If there’s nothing else, we’ll be on our way.”

Zhao Shan nodded, signaled the nearby police to lift Jin Quan, and without any hesitation, turned to walk outside.
