Chapter 45: Chapter 45: What’s the Motive?
Editor: Atlas Studios
She could endure the accusation, but she didn’t want to admit to something she hadn’t done.
“Not done it? You mean Mr. Huang hurt himself? I have asked around, and it was only you and Mr. Huang in that private room at the end. If not you, then who?”
What’s more, when she later phoned Mr. Huang, he completely ignored her and even decided to withdraw his investment from the new film!
If Mochen returned, she would definitely pin all the blame on Gu Qiangwei, and it would also serve to distance Mochen from her!
Thinking about everything that happened last night, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but be filled with anger.
“Qiao Muxue, you have the nerve to bring this up? You deliberately assigned me as Mr. Huang’s interpreter. What was your intention?”
Facing Gu Qiangwei’s righteous indignation, Qiao Muxue was afraid others might overhear, as she had indeed had ulterior motives with this matter, but she absolutely could not let Shen Mochen hear of it!
“Gu Qiangwei, you’re just a mere assistant. I gave you the opportunity to interpret for Mr. Huang because I saw potential in you. Don’t be ungrateful!”
“So, I should thank you now?”
“Don’t change the topic. You’ll have to explain this loss to the company yourself!”
Gu Qiangwei clenched her fists. Although Mr. Huang had nearly taken advantage of her, injuring him had caused a loss to Shen Mochen’s company, and Gu Qiangwei was at a loss as to what to do.
The person wasn’t injured by her, but it must have been one of Qin Si’s men, right?
But in front of Qiao Muxue, she naturally couldn’t use this reason, or with her temperament, she would end up like Chen Peifang, being falsely accused of being kept by a man!
But fifty million—she, a person who didn’t even have fifty thousand, how was she to compensate for this loss?
The glass office door was knocked on, and a female employee entered, her gaze turning toward Qiao Muxue.
“Director Qiao, the president has returned and asks you to go to the top-floor office immediately.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Muxue’s gaze naturally shifted to Gu Qiangwei.
With a look of someone watching a drama unfold, “Let’s go up together!”
Qiao Muxue, moving with a sultry composure, left the office and ascended to the top floor with Gu Qiangwei.
In the president’s office, looking at the two women who entered, Shen Mochen’s handsome face slightly darkened.
“Mochen, you’re back.”
Looking at the man sitting at the desk, Qiao Muxue changed from her previous domineering attitude to that of a weak woman and approached Shen Mochen.
Shen Mochen’s gaze moved from Gu Qiangwei’s face to Qiao Muxue. “What exactly happened?”
Hearing Shen Mochen’s tone, Qiao Muxue immediately put on an aggrieved expression, “It’s all because of Gu Qiangwei. I sent her to be Mr. Huang’s interpreter because her English is good. Who knew Mr. Huang just wanted her to have a drink with him, and she, in a fit of rage, smashed Mr. Huang’s head. You tell me, wasn’t Gu Qiangwei deliberately trying to cause a huge loss to Starlight?”
Looking at Qiao Muxue acting as if she wished she could squeeze into Shen Mochen’s arms, Gu Qiangwei felt nauseous!
Shen Mochen’s gaze returned to Gu Qiangwei’s face, and as the president of Starlight Entertainment, he naturally wouldn’t just listen to one side of the story.
“Is what she said true?”
Gu Qiangwei opened her mouth, wanting to deny it, yet she hesitated.
It was Qin Si’s men who had injured Mr. Huang’s head, but she couldn’t reveal this reason. At that moment, she didn’t know how to respond to Shen Mochen.
