Seeing her silence, he inquired, “Can you manage it?”
“Understood. I’m heading upstairs now,” Fang Yuan replied. She had no intention of hugging him in public; that wouldn’t be appropriate.
Inside the company, she entered the office, typed in the password, and pushed the door open. The bracelet was indeed on her desk. Reflecting on what Bo Yi had said earlier, her heart warmed. Eager not to keep him waiting too long, Fang Yuan swiftly put on the bracelet and left her office. As she was about to enter the elevator, she suddenly heard noises emanating from the emergency exit.
It sounded like an argument, marked by a tone filled with complaints. Fang Yuan treaded lightly and gently pushed open the door leading to the corridor. It was then that she realized the sounds were coming from an unknown floor below. Because of the echoing acoustics in the corridor, it didn’t appear to be very distant.
“Our families depend on me for their livelihoods. Now that President Zhao has halted production like this, what will the seven of us eat and drink in the future?”
“Could you at least listen to what I have to say? President Zhao’s intention is to have Line 123 continue production while Line 45 takes a brief break. He doesn’t want you to stop working; he simply wants you to head home and wait for further instructions.”
“How long do i have to wait? I can’t afford to wait another day!”
“Sun, you’re the team leader of Line 4. You must lead by example, whether you agree or not. There’s no room for negotiation!”
“Manager Jia, President Zhao promised us hope. Although we may not soar to great heights, we should at least have a comfortable life!”
“Has President Zhao treated you poorly over the past year? Can’t you see that everything is being scrutinized since President Fang arrived at the company? Line 45 must be stopped, and all the warehouse inventory must be cleared out within the next few days. Otherwise, not only you and me, but even President Zhao will be in trouble!”
Listening to their conversation, Fang Yuan finally understood. It appeared that the products manufactured by Line 45 during the night shift needed to remain discreet. The two individuals speaking were Manager Jia from the production department and the team leader of Line 4. When she overheard them mention that the warehouse goods had to be moved out within the next two days, it was evident that something was amiss with these goods.
Fang Yuan discreetly retreated from the corridor and made her way to the first-floor warehouse.
During the night, the warehouse was left unattended. Fang Yuan attempted to use her fingerprint to access it, but she realized she couldn’t open the warehouse door. In theory, her fingerprint permissions should grant her access throughout the company. She attempted the password once more, but the warehouse door remained unresponsive. It seemed that someone had deliberately erased her data and was blocking her entry.
Fang Yuan’s curiosity was piqued. She suddenly had a desire to uncover what Zhao Quan was scheming behind her back. Was her suspicion accurate?
The warehouse door featured three layers of password locks, which Fang Yuan managed to crack with ease. Not only did she unlock it, but she also tampered with the subsequent surveillance recordings. Inside the warehouse, there was an assortment of clothing, including finished products from other companies and new and old products manufactured by her own company.
As she explored the warehouse, Fang Yuan discovered two batches of seemingly identical new products. However, upon closer inspection, the workmanship and fabric quality were drastically different. She logged into the computer used by the warehouse manager and discovered that this substandard batch of products was not recorded in the company’s database at all. She copied all the data and sent it to her email, subsequently erasing all traces.
At that moment, she heard hurried footsteps approaching the warehouse.
Fang Yuan swiftly climbed onto a beam at the top and observed from above. The newcomers were Manager Jia and a few unfamiliar employees. These employees were not the same individuals who worked during the day but seemed to be a group of trusted aides for Zhao Quan.
Each of them carried a wooden stick, and the warehouse lights were turned on. The employees cautiously combed through the area, but they found no one.
“Manager Jia, did that new girl try to assert her authority and leave an impression on you recently?”
“There’s no sign of anyone entering this warehouse.”
Manager Jia’s eyes surveyed the entire space, sensing an inexplicable presence. “Check the surveillance footage.”
The surveillance footage had been altered by Fang Yuan. Although the timestamps remained intact minute by minute, there were no traces of Fang Yuan’s entry.
An employee examined the surveillance footage and quickly reported, “Manager Jia, it appears that nobody entered the warehouse.”
Manager Jia appeared perplexed. “Strange… Someone claimed to have seen President Fang enter the company just now. Could they have been mistaken?” Recently, an employee had gone downstairs to pick up takeout and spotted a figure that resembled President Fang entering the private elevator. That figure should have been Fang Yuan…
Worried, Manager Jia instructed someone to inspect the entrance surveillance cameras. If Fang Yuan had truly arrived, the cameras would undoubtedly have captured her presence.
One of them immediately headed to check the entrance surveillance cameras. Meanwhile, Fang Yuan discreetly pulled out her phone and erased the footage that had captured her entry earlier. She then activated her phone’s camera and discreetly documented their activities..
