45: It's hard to tell who's loyal and who's treacherous. How did you figure it out?
The phone call ended.
Chen Yang felt a headache coming on!
He had only wanted to do a good deed, but unexpectedly, he had found trouble for himself.
If he couldn't get any useful information out of them later, what would he do?
[Ding!]
[You have gained 10 points. Current cumulative points: 780. Keep up the good work!]
Ha!
He hadn't even started working, and the points were already in his account.
It made Chen Yang feel a little embarrassed.
These points were earned so easily!
...The last problem was to resolve Liu Sisi's crisis.
Regarding this matter, Chen Yang decided to strike first.
He would directly dig out the mole.
That would solve everything once and for all.
Otherwise, even if today's problem was resolved, similar leaks would still occur tomorrow, and the day after.
Liu Sisi would constantly be in danger.
One day, something irreversible would definitely happen.
He looked at Liu Sisi seriously.
"Sisi, who knows your itinerary every time you go out?"
Liu Sisi thought for a moment.
"If it's a major event, the company's senior management all know the itinerary."
"If it's a temporary event, usually only the manager, assistant, driver, makeup artist, etc., might know."
Chen Yang frowned.
That scope was a bit broad; finding the mole would be quite difficult.
"What's your schedule today?"
"This morning I plan to go to the company to practice singing, and this afternoon I plan to attend a concert. It won't be long, less than two hours, and then it'll be over."
Liu Sisi thought Chen Yang was simply asking about her schedule for the day.
But Chen Yang had other considerations.
"Who knows your itinerary for today?"
"Xiao Yue."
Liu Sisi replied.
Chen Yang was greatly surprised.
"Only her?"
"Yes."
Liu Sisi was very certain.
This afternoon's itinerary was a last-minute decision by Liu Sisi.
She had only told Xiao Yue.
Chen Yang looked deeply at Liu Sisi.
"Then call her over. I have a few questions for her."
Liu Sisi instantly bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"You suspect her of being the mole?"
"Impossible!"
"Xiao Yue has been with me for three years, and she has always been obedient and sensible!"
"Whatever work I give her, she completes meticulously!"
"Moreover, I've even been to her house and visited her parents; they are very simple and honest people."
"She would never betray me!"
Chen Yang shook his head.
"I also like Xiao Yue very much. She's serious, careful, and very thoughtful in her work."
"However, we can't just rely on feelings to judge whether she's a mole."
"This kind of thing still needs to be based on evidence."
"A while ago, I helped a friend investigate a company's internal leak."
"At first, she also didn't believe that her subordinates would betray the company's interests."
"But in the end, it was someone who had received her kindness, and whom she trusted and relied on greatly, who betrayed her."
"It's hard to know people's hearts!"
"Especially when money can sway people's hearts, anything is possible!"
Liu Sisi sadly lowered her head.
Her voice was weak.
"Alright, I'll call her over."
She made a call and had Xiao Yue come over.
As soon as she entered the door, Xiao Yue smiled at Chen Yang and then asked Liu Sisi:
"Sister Sisi, are you ready to leave for the company?"
Liu Sisi scrutinized Xiao Yue, making Xiao Yue feel inexplicably confused.
"Xiao Yue, Chen Yang has a few questions for you, and you must answer truthfully."
Xiao Yue nodded obediently.
"Sister Sisi, you know I never lie."
Liu Sisi nodded.
"Mm, I hope you live up to your words and continue to do so."
Xiao Yue turned to look at Chen Yang.
"Brother Yang, please ask. I promise to answer every question."
Chen Yang sat upright on the sofa, but he didn't ask Xiao Yue to sit down, instead having her stand to answer.
"Xiao Yue, tell me truthfully, has Sister Sisi been good to you?"
Xiao Yue glanced at Liu Sisi and said sincerely:
"Sister Sisi treats me like a real older sister!"
Chen Yang nodded slightly.
"Then tell me, regarding today's itinerary, especially the afternoon concert, did you tell anyone else about it?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yue's face instantly changed!
Her small face turned pale!
Sweat started to bead on her forehead!
She couldn't answer the question for a long time.
Liu Sisi was heartbroken.
"Xiao Yue, could it... really be you?"
Xiao Yue wanted to explain, but couldn't speak.
"I..."
Liu Sisi was both angry and furious!
Her chest heaved violently!
The area was not large, but the altitude was very high!
Tall and prominent.
It made one wonder about the correctness of gravity!
"I trusted you so much normally, told you everything, entrusted everything to you, and this is how you treat me?"
"You, your family, which of you did I not treat as my own sister, my own family, you... why did you do this to me?"
Xiao Yue was so ashamed she wanted to hide.
She covered her face and cried bitterly.
Crystal tears streamed down continuously.
"Wuwu... Sister Sisi... I'm sorry..."
Liu Sisi felt a sorrow greater than death.
"Xiao Yue, you are the clearest about my recent situation."
"Constrained everywhere, dangerous everywhere!"
"In such circumstances, you're still so unreliable in your work. How can I use you?"
"Starting today, you will no longer be my assistant."
"For the sake of our many years of friendship, you don't need to repay the money I lent you."
"You may leave!"
After saying that, she turned away, no longer looking at Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue cried uncontrollably!
"Sister Sisi, I... I was wrong..."
"Please don't send me away... I haven't... repaid your kindness..."
Liu Sisi's tears fell despite herself, but she hardened her heart and didn't turn around.
Xiao Yue, with tears in her eyes, looked back three times.
She wanted to explain, but held it back.
Step by small step, she slowly moved towards the villa exit.
Suddenly, Chen Yang called out.
"Come back!"
Xiao Yue froze, looking at Chen Yang.
She seemed to doubt if she had misheard.
And Liu Sisi also looked at Chen Yang in surprise.
Why call back such a mole? To continue harming people?
Chen Yang stood at the doorway, beckoning to Xiao Yue in the yard.
"That's right, I'm calling you back."
Xiao Yue, both surprised and doubtful, jogged back.
Her big eyes looked eagerly at Chen Yang, full of hopeful pleading.
Was Brother Yang going to intercede for her?
Sister Sisi trusted Brother Yang so much; if he spoke, Sister Sisi should agree, right?
Chen Yang raised his hand and pointed opposite, telling Xiao Yue to sit on the sofa.
Xiao Yue sat timidly, only on the edge of the seat.
"Xiao Yue, you just said you haven't repaid Sister Sisi's kindness yet, is that right?"
Xiao Yue nodded pitifully.
Chen Yang asked curiously:
"Then I don't understand. Since you are grateful to Sister Sisi, why would you betray her and leak today's itinerary to others?"
Xiao Yue showed a look of pain, but refused to say a word.
Chen Yang saw that she seemed to have something difficult to say, so he took the initiative to guide her.
"Is there something you haven't said?"
"You have to believe me and Sister Sisi. We can definitely understand your difficulties, and if we can help, we won't stand by idly."
Xiao Yue thought it over repeatedly and finally spoke.
"Brother Yang, Sister Sisi, I did leak the itinerary."
"But... it wasn't an outsider. It was... Driver Wang."
Liu Sisi was greatly surprised.
Chen Yang was also very astonished.
"Oh?"
"How could it be him?... What exactly happened?"
