Chapter 355 Promotion
Chapter 355 Promotion
Xiaocha was completely unaware and continued reporting.
The level of proficiency was so high that it seemed like he was memorizing lines.
The explanation of each manuscript is a simple introduction to the surface without any extension.
When I switched to the next page, suddenly, a line of words slowly enlarged and appeared on the screen:
How dare you steal Sister Ning’s manuscript, you coward bastard!
When Lin Xinyi saw this, her thoughts were confirmed. Without thinking twice, she quickly stood up and slammed the table: "Okay, you really stole the manuscript, you bastard!"
Lin Xin looked back at the screen, and immediately panicked when she saw the large characters that suddenly appeared.
She hadn't seen this in the file before, so how could she know that Zhou Ning had been extra careful when editing the manuscript this time and deliberately added a line of small words at the bottom.
When it is shown, it will suddenly enlarge, so it is not easy to be discovered.
This line of words was thought up by Lin Xin.
People around saw this scene and whispered to each other.
Xiaocha turned off the screen in panic and shook her head innocently: "I don't know why it suddenly became like this."
Lin Xin shouted in a hoarse voice: "You stole the manuscript, don't you know? Why are you pretending to be confused? You are very capable and you got the manuscript again!"
"Don't frame me. Everyone knows that you want to curry favor with Zhou Ning."
Xiaocha turned to her leader with an anxious look on her face: "This must be a prank by someone trying to frame me."
Zhou Ning stood up and said calmly, "You keep saying false accusations. You've almost worn out this word."
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Ning strode onto the stage, snatched the remote control from Xiaocha's hand, pushed Xiaocha aside, and turned on the screen.
"This is the manuscript I made. She stole my work. The explanation just now was very superficial. Next, I will give you a more in-depth explanation. Please give me your advice."
Xiaocha was stunned and stood awkwardly in the corner.
She had never expected Zhou Ning to do this. Feeling guilty, she dared not move. As she heard Zhou Ning's more detailed report, her expression became even uglier.
By the time Zhou Ning finished his report, the leaders had already understood the situation.
Zhou Ning looked at Xiaocha and raised her eyelids lightly: "Do you think I will make the same mistake again? Last time there was a problem with the surveillance and you took advantage of it. Do you think you can do it again?"
"But I didn't expect you to make the same mistake again."
Seeing that the truth was revealed, Xiaocha lowered her head and did not dare to reply. Because the time limit was tight this time, she was worried that if she rushed to finish the task, she would be discovered and backslide. In addition, Zhou Ning could not find any evidence, so she became bolder.
In fact, the reason she was able to do such a bold thing again was because she was gambling and her lucky mentality was at work, thinking that she could get away with it this time.
At this moment, she regretted it very much, wishing she had read the manuscript carefully.
The evidence was conclusive, and the leader severely criticized Xiaocha for her despicable behavior and did not allow her to continue staying in the company.
When Xiaocha heard that she had lost her job, she burst into tears and begged her leader to let her go. She almost knelt in front of her leader and said all kinds of good and bad things to him.
However, the leader did not change his attitude, criticized him harshly, and walked out.
Everyone followed him out.
Xiaocha was filled with regret. She knew very well which loss would be a greater one, not getting promoted or losing her job. Moreover, this incident was a stain on her career.
The people in the conference room gradually walked out. In the end, Xiaocha only saw Zhou Ning packing up his things and getting ready to leave.
In a hurry, she stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Ning's arm, crying:
"Zhou Ning, I was just carried away by impulse. I wouldn't normally do something like this. Please spare me this time."
"I still rely on this job to make a living. If I lose my job, how can I survive?"
Zhou Ning's expression remained unchanged: "You have violated the bottom line. You cannot be forgiven."
Such a firm attitude made Xiaocha anxious.
“Is it wrong for me to compete for a promotion?”
"You were right to participate in the promotion, but you were wrong to rely on these crooked means and not even admit it."
Zhou Ning said this mercilessly. She had no sympathy at all for Xiaocha's pitiful crying. She only felt sad that her research results were stolen. She racked her brains to find clues, which consumed too many brain cells.
Seeing Zhou Ning was about to leave, Xiaocha stood in front of her.
"Zhou Ning, can you please have some conscience? Why don't you just go home and be a rich wife and enjoy your life? Why do you have to come here and compete with me for my position?"
"You are so cruel. You are so rich. Why don't you just turn a blind eye and give me the position?"
Zhou Ning found it funny when he heard this. He saw once again with his own eyes how weird some people's train of thought were.
"I stole your position? Think about it carefully. I was competing fairly. You can't beat me. Besides, I'm not a philanthropist. Why should I give it to you?"
Not wanting to waste any more time here, Zhou Ning forcefully pulled Xiaocha's hand away and left the meeting room.
Not long after, a notice was sent out in the group, directly exposing Xiaocha's theft behavior.
At the same time, a new appointment notice was announced, and Zhou Ning was officially promoted to team leader.
When Zhou Ning saw the notice, she felt a little relieved, but she knew it was nothing and she still had a long way to go.
Xiaocha packed her things crying and left the company under everyone's contemptuous gaze.
As soon as she left, her colleagues started chatting animatedly, which was incredible.
"Xiaocha usually looks very weak, how dare she do such a bold thing? I really underestimated her."
"She was able to do such a bad thing, and luckily she was found out. I don't want to continue to be her colleague."
If they hadn’t seen the notice with their own eyes, some colleagues might not have believed that Xiaocha would do such a thing and would have thought that she was framed.
Knowing that Zhou Ning got a promotion, many colleagues came to her and said compliments to her. It was hard to guess what they were really thinking.
Lin Xin stood beside Zhou Ning excitedly and patted her on the shoulder. "I knew you were great! Great, Zhou Ning, you relied on your own strength, which is much better than those people who got promoted without knowing the reason. If Xiaocha became our team leader, my god, bah! This is unacceptable!"
Bai Yu, who was not far away, heard Lin Xin's loud voice, especially this sentence, and his expression was unpredictable.
Lin Xin had no idea: "No, I'm calling you Team Leader Zhou now. You don't know how heroic you were on the stage just now. I hope you can become more powerful, not just a team leader..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard Bai Yu's scolding voice from behind him.
"You're all chatting here, aren't you working?"
After hearing this, everyone fell silent immediately.
Especially Lin Xin, who lowered her head and almost buried it in her neck.
Bai Yu looked at Zhou Ning seriously: "Zhou Ning, now that you have been promoted, even though you are just a small team leader, please manage the people in your team well. I don't want this to happen again."
Zhou Ning knew that he was in the wrong and that Bai Yu was thinking about the company, so he responded politely.
Because of the promotion, she immediately moved to Bai Yu's original office. Although the office space was not large, it was very private.
Zhou Ning was very excited and wanted to share the good news with Huo Qingzhou as soon as possible, but then she thought of something and decided to give him a surprise when she got back.
After thinking about it, Zhou Ning decided to go to Wen Erya's office while he had some free time.
