When Shi Wan mentioned it, he thought it must be some shameless person stealing the credit. He never expected it to be Yang Yun!
"Senior Sister, I..."
"Why are you apologizing? It wasn't you who stole the work."
Shi Wan saw through his thoughts immediately.
"After all, he's my student. I really didn't expect something like this to happen."
Faced with all this, Yang Yun had nothing to say in his defense.
With Shan Ya around, it was useless for him to say anything.
Just now, he tried to use Shan Ya to suppress her, but unexpectedly, the situation took a turn he couldn't control.
"Senior Shan Ya, there's no need to be so harsh with such insulting words, right?" Neng Yuanrong regained her composure. "Even if you can prove it, so what? The final decision still has to go through me."
Everyone was shocked. Neng Yuanrong was openly going against Shan Ya!
Wasn't she asking for trouble?
But they also wanted to see what Shan Ya would do.
Neng Yuanrong was no ordinary person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten into her current position at such a young age.
Shan Ya's face darkened. "Do you want to abuse your power?"
"So what if I abuse my power once for my husband?"
Hearing this, Yang Yun, who had been feeling dejected, suddenly perked up.
"Sorry, Teacher. If I can't have it, no one else can."
"What a big mouth."
A solemn voice came, and then a man strode over.
"Mrs. Yang, I didn't expect to hear such words as soon as I arrived. Your words really surprise me."
The person who came was the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
No matter how capable Neng Yuanrong was, she was only a deputy. She was still far from the director.
"What? Don't you recognize me?" the director said sternly. "Plagiarism is bad enough, but you're even causing a ruckus?"
"No, they're framing me. Don't listen to their nonsense."
"Nonsense? Someone has already sent all the evidence to me. The evidence is conclusive. Now, with Senior Shan Ya personally testifying, you're telling me this is a frame - up?"
"I..."
Neng Yuanrong panicked. She didn't know if she could keep her job in this situation.
"Wife."
"Director, please listen to my explanation." Neng Yuanrong gritted her teeth and said firmly, "Actually, I was also deceived in this matter. I had no idea."
Seeing that the director's expression didn't soften, she continued, "I admit that I was biased. It's only natural for me to subconsciously favor my own family. But since the evidence is conclusive, I can't protect my family members anymore. How to handle this is up to their circle."
"Wife..."
Yang Yun was stunned by her actions.
Was he being abandoned?
"Don't call me wife. Hurry up and apologize to them!"
Neng Yuanrong kept winking at Yang Yun. What was Si Yu's background that even the director was on her side?
She really lost face today.
Roared at by her, Yang Yun instinctively wanted to get angry, but fortunately, his reason prevailed.
Gritting his teeth reluctantly, he said, "Sorry, this is my fault."
"Who are you apologizing to?" Shi Wan raised her eyes coldly. "There are so many people here. Can't you even apologize sincerely?"
"You... Miss Si Yu, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have used the experimental results of the YT Research Institute. I hope you can forgive me."
"Speak louder. I can't hear you."
"Sorry, Miss Si Yu!"
Yang Yun's face was ugly. Sooner or later, he would return all the humiliation Si Yu had heaped on him!
"That's better. According to the industry rules, what should be done..."
"Senior Sister, I understand."
Shan Ya immediately said.
Shi Wan nodded and left with Gong Qi.
As soon as she left, everyone's curiosity got the better of them.
"How embarrassing. I thought he had it in the bag, but he got slapped in the face so badly."
"What's the deal with Si Yu? Is her background that powerful?"
"I don't know. I'm leaving. I feel dirty just being here."
"I'm leaving too. Let's go. It's disgusting."
"........"
Yang Yun stood there listening to what they said and was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. Didn't these people think about the fact that they had also stepped on Si Yu just now?
Now they were quicker than anyone to distance themselves.
"Yang Yun, you really made me look good today!"
After everyone left, Neng Yuanrong snorted.
"Wife, I didn't know Si Yu had such a big background. Otherwise, how could I have dared to provoke her?"
Before, Cha Yuanming had told him that Si Yu was just the founder of a research institute and had no other special background, so he dared to do it.
Who knew he'd been set up by a woman.
"I can't help you with this. Figure it out on your own." After a pause, she said, "Wait, does Shan Ya know the director?"
"No. I've been with the teacher for so many years, and I've never seen him interact with the director."
Neng Yuanrong seemed to think of something. Without even changing her clothes, she rushed out in a hurry.
"Miss Si Yu, Senior Shan Ya, please wait a moment."
The director came out from inside and stood in front of Shi Wan respectfully.
"Hello."
"I... I really want to ask. Can the things you're researching really treat Parkinson's disease?"
The director also had an elderly person in his family. If there really was such a thing, he'd buy it no matter how much it cost.
"Yes."
"Then can you give me some?"
The director looked eager.
"When it can be officially used, I'll definitely send someone to your home personally."
"Good, good. Thank you, Miss Si. I'll leave first."
Shi Wan watched his back as he left and asked, "At first, I thought you invited him here."
But judging from his behavior, he didn't seem to be familiar with Gong Qi. He didn't even say hello when they met.
Gong Qi also said, "I thought you knew him."
Their gazes both landed on Shan Ya, who looked very conflicted.
"What... what's wrong, Senior Sister?" Shan Ya said weakly. "Why are you looking at me? I don't know him either. Your look is kind of scary."
The three of them fell silent. None of them knew the director.
Then who else was helping them behind the scenes?
A smile suddenly curved on Shi Wan's lips. She probably knew who it was.
Even from far away in City T, he still had to worry about her affairs. It must be tough on him.
Gong Qi's eyes darkened slightly. He pursed his lips and said nothing.
"Senior Sister, I just remembered I have something to do. I'll leave first." Shan Ya said hesitantly, "Senior Sister, how long will you stay in the capital?"
"I'm leaving right away."
"Ah?"
The little old man looked strange. Shi Wan couldn't help but laugh. "Yes, I'm leaving right away. There's a darling at home who can't do without me."
Hearing her doting and sweet tone, Gong Qi felt bitter in his heart. This was a side of her he had never seen before.
If...
He shook his head and pretended to be non -chalant. "Let's go. I'll see you off. Don't keep someone waiting for too long."
Shi Wan raised her eyes to look at him, then turned around and left.
Shan Ya opened his mouth, wanting to call her back, but he didn't know what reason to use.
He hadn't seen his senior sister for a long time. He finally got to see her, but unexpectedly, she was leaving so soon. What a pity.
...
It was already early morning when Shi Wan returned to City T. She carefully pushed open the door, thinking she would see the man in bed, but the bed was empty.
She was stunned. Just as she was about to take out her phone to call Shen Siyan...
