Chapter 513: The Jinx is Gone

Meng Xia was frightened by his words. Xu Wen had told her that Song Yi’s office didn’t have surveillance, and there were no infrared monitors in the corridors of Song Corporation, so theoretically, the office’s situation shouldn’t have been captured.

She stood up trembling but couldn’t utter a single word in her defense.

Meng Yu stepped forward to support her. Seeing her reaction, it was clear she was guilty of this matter.

Meng Yu planned to play the family card, at least to use Meng Xia’s pregnancy to stabilize Song Yi. “Even if Xia did something wrong, it was probably just a moment of confusion. You know she’s pregnant, and under such circumstances…”

“A moment of confusion?” Song Yi found her words amusing. “She stole the company’s bidding documents. Other companies have already taken three or four projects from us. Do you want Song Corporation to go down with her?”

“What?”

Both Meng Xia and Meng Yu exclaimed simultaneously, their eyes filled with disbelief.

“Xia! Is what he’s saying true?” Meng Yu pinched Meng Xia’s arm hard. She could tolerate Meng Xia’s other issues, but she couldn’t let Song Corporation suffer any losses. That was her and Song Yi’s shared property. If Song Corporation lost money, it meant she lost money!

“No, no, it wasn’t me!” Meng Xia shook her head hurriedly.

She might have had reasons to wrong Song Fan, possibly claiming to be helping Song Yi vent his anger because Song Fan didn’t respect the Chairman. But stealing company documents was a different matter altogether. She couldn’t take the blame for that.

“Not you? Hmph! The video evidence is right here. If it wasn’t you, then who?” Song Yi viciously threw his phone over. “And my people found out your dad recently received hundreds of thousands in remittances. Don’t tell me he won the lottery!”

Meng Yu quickly picked up the phone and indeed saw a video of Meng Xia. She was furious at Meng Xia’s incompetence but had to defend her.

However, Song Yi gave her no chance. “Since Xia is pregnant, she shouldn’t go to work anymore. Just stay home and rest.”

“Dad! It really wasn’t me!” Meng Xia wanted to defend herself but didn’t know what evidence to present.

At this point, Song Yi was already furious. If she mentioned she had stolen Song Fan’s designs, wouldn’t he despise her even more?

“Enough! Go back to your room now!” Song Yi said and stormed back to his study without looking back.

Knowing that Meng Xia would not be returning to work, everyone celebrating at the bar cheered.

“Thank God! That jinx is finally gone! Long live the boss!” Li Na, though unsure how Song Fan managed it, instinctively knew it was her doing.

Actually, Song Fan hadn’t done much. Meng Xia dug her own grave; Song Fan merely gave a slight push.

The projects lost by Song Corporation were all taken by subsidiaries of Gu Corporation. Song Fan did it as a favor to them.

As for the money to Meng Xia’s father, it was a scheduled transfer. Although the transfer details were traceable, the money never actually went through; she withdrew it early.

If she didn’t deal with the troublemaker Meng Xia, how could Song Fan work peacefully in the capital?

With Meng Xia no longer causing trouble and Xu Wen quieting down after the press conference, Lingdong Jewelry’s promotion went very well. Some designs were even sold out in advance.

Just as Song Fan finished her work, Charlie came to see her.

“As expected of Song Fan, truly impressive. The total overseas jewelry orders have already surpassed a hundred million. In US dollars.” Charlie poured himself a glass of juice and sat on the office sofa.

Seeing this uninvited guest, Song Fan roughly guessed his purpose.

“Now that the jewelry brand’s work has settled, when do we start our collaboration?” Charlie went straight to the point.

He seemed unchanged, but he was actually very anxious. After Jason’s death, he thought taking over Jason’s lab would be easy, but Jason took his formulas with him. Charlie was now handling a hot potato.

Old Brown kept urging him to release new drugs, but no one could develop them. Especially considering Old Brown’s current health, Charlie was even more anxious.

Song Fan appeared somewhat reluctant. “You know, I never promised to collaborate from the beginning. The saffron was given to me as a sign of your goodwill.”

Charlie had expected Song Fan to agree to the collaboration, but now she was still considering it.

Charlie was visibly displeased. “Miss Song, you should be well aware of Gu Chen’s condition. Without saffron, he won’t survive long.”

“That’s my concern, not yours,” Gu Chen said as he pushed the door open and walked in with a cold expression.
