The words of that person dropped into the calm lake like a pebble, immediately prompting others to echo her sentiments.
"Yes, President, you may not be aware that Song Qiao is the Song Family’s young mistress; her coming to our company surely signifies ill intentions. Moreover, these past two years, the Song Group has poached quite a number of our artists, and it must have been thanks to Song Qiao’s secret assistance."
Over the recent years, the Song Group has snatched away a significant number of their artists. Now that Li Xin has revealed Song Qiao’s identity, people immediately assumed it must have been Song Qiao’s doing.
Song Qiao stood there motionless, not uttering a word. Against these unfounded accusations, she had no intention to personally explain.
She would naturally not admit to things she hadn’t done. Li Xin looked at her with displeasure, and she didn’t have much of a liking for Li Xin either; after all, who would willingly invite masochism by liking someone who always regarded them with aversion?

What she had not anticipated from the start was that without exposing Li Xin’s own shameful deeds, it was Li Xin who instead pushed her to the eye of the storm.
Seeing that Song Qiao did not retort, Shen Yi just stood there in a dim and indistinct manner without speaking. Consequently, a few people became even more impassioned, assigning the blame for all the artists poached by the Song Group in the past few years squarely onto Song Qiao.
Li Xin stood in front of those people, slightly bowing her head and nobody noticed the fleeting look of triumph in her eyes.
Lu An’an almost spat out blood when she heard what these people were saying; she truly wanted to slap each of them in the face. Normally these people never displayed such eloquence, but now, when slandering Song Qiao and making her the scapegoat, they did so with gusto.
At this moment, Lu An’an felt particularly vexed. The sole reason was Li Xin’s revelation of Song Qiao’s identity and her subsequent ambiguous statement; these people immediately turned with the wind, completely according to the desires of that wretched Li Xin.
Who Song Qiao truly was, Lu An’an knew much better than them. Lu An’an wasn’t blind; if Song Qiao was really such a person, she wouldn’t be such close friends with her.
She wanted to speak up, but the moment her gaze met with Shen Yi’s obscure and dark eyes, the words reaching her lips got stuck in her throat. With no way to voice her discomfort, it only intensified.
At this moment, Lu An’an couldn’t help but let out an expletive inside her head, damn it!
Those few people were talking when they suddenly noticed that Shen Yi’s expression was getting colder by the second, an unprecedented chill about his countenance. It was as if a pause button had been hit, and their voices instantly hushed.
The office fell silent all at once and even the atmosphere began to grow eerie. The people exchanged glances, looking from Song Qiao, who stood there with her head slightly lowered and remaining quiet, to Shen Yi standing at the front. Their expressions seemed to plead their innocence, as if they were telling the truth and seeking praise for it.
Shen Yi surveyed the people in the office area, his lips curling into a meaningful smile, laden with a trace of coldness. His deep voice shattered the silence as he said, "Who told you that the artists poached by the Song Group from our company have anything to do with Song Qiao?"
The handsome and refined man narrowed his eyes slightly, a dangerous and mocking smile on his face as he looked at those who had just spoken.
