Chapter 382

"What did I do? Why are you taking me back!" An Hao reacted and yelled angrily.

He didn't feel like he had committed any crime at all, and was also very confident at the moment.

The people from the Inspection Department said bluntly, "You leaked trade secrets. Come back with us for investigation."

"What trade secrets did I leak? When did I ever leak trade secrets..." He was stunned in that moment.

He instantly thought of it - he had given An Nuan's proposal to Gu Yan Sheng.

He couldn't help but shudder.

Every single hair on his body stood up in horror.

He instantly lost all his confidence as well.

"What's going on?!" An Yanyuan got up and walked over.

As Anshi Group's chairman and An Hao's second uncle, he couldn't just sit by and do nothing about An Hao's matters.

The people from the Inspection Department looked at An Yanyuan and said bluntly, "We received a report from an employee of your Anshi Group saying that An Hao leaked your company's trade secrets. The evidence we have received so far is very sufficient, so we need to take An Hao back for investigation."

"Our Anshi employee?" An Yanyuan was clearly somewhat surprised.

He had no idea who reported An Hao at all.

And he didn't know what was reported either.

"It was me." An Nuan walked over unhurriedly and said to An Yanyuan, "I was the one who reported it."

"What did you report about me?!" An Hao asked loudly, suppressing the panic in his heart, "Isn't it just that you can't stand the sight of me? Isn't it just that you want to kick me out of Anshi Group? Just say it directly. I'll leave! I'll leave immediately!"

As he spoke, An Hao prepared to leave.

He was probably also panicking.

However, just as he took a step in that moment.

The people from the Inspection Department directly blocked his way, stopping him from leaving.

"An Hao, still not admitting what you did yourself?" An Nuan looked at him and asked word for word.

"What did I do? I didn't do anything! You must be framing me. You're framing me to get me to leave! An Nuan, how can you be so nasty, how can you be so vicious? No matter what our relationship is, I'm still your cousin brother. We're blood related. We're family. Yet you're scheming against me like this!"

An Nuan gave a cold laugh.

She didn't care at all about An Hao's accusations.

She said to the people from the Inspection Department, "Can you give me ten minutes? I'll explain everything clearly, otherwise I guess I'll never be able to wash myself clean in this."

The people from the Inspection Department hesitated for a few seconds before readily agreeing, "Alright."

"Thank you." An Nuan smiled gratefully.

Slowly, she walked to the podium and plugged in the USB drive she had prepared earlier into the computer. The high definition projector screen in the conference room immediately showed a video of An Hao stealing a safe box from Luo Si's office. The video very clearly showed An Hao opening it, taking out a USB drive, then hurriedly leaving.

There were exclamations across the room.

When An Hao saw himself in the video, his face turned pale with fright.

He had completely not expected there to be surveillance cameras at all. He had clearly disabled all the monitoring that day, yet he didn't expect there to still be a camera under the desk pointing right at him?!

He was so scared that he couldn't get a single word out.

He was just left speechless.

Everyone else was also looking at An Hao, as they had not expected that An Hao would actually do something like this either!

What good would it do him to do something like this?!

Was it just to frame An Nuan?!

If that was the case.

This man was truly too vicious.

He completely disregarded the company's operations just for his own benefit.

People had just been saying that An Hao had matured and become stable, but now their words were really slapped in the face badly.

"The proposal from Gu's Group, the people from the Inspection Department have also obtained through proper channels. Their proposal is largely similar to ours. You can't tell just by looking at it briefly, but once you examine it in depth, you can determine it's plagiarized. And the 9.9 billion bidding amount is no coincidence either." An Nuan said to all the directors and high-level management, "Most importantly, I also have records of the transactions between An Hao and the other party. Due to time constraints, I don't want to hold up the Inspection Department, so I won't play them here."

An Nuan was clean and efficient.

She never dragged things out.

Under everyone's watchful gaze, she walked over to the staff from the Inspection Department, "Thank you for your hard work."

The staff member nodded slightly.

They left directly with An Hao.

An Hao was terrified and completely unable to accept this outcome.

He should have still been reveling in joy, so how could he have suddenly fallen into the net?

An Nuan had originally been toyed with by them completely.

How could she have bitten back at him instead?

No.

He couldn't be imprisoned.

Once imprisoned, his life would be ruined.

He struggled and shouted loudly, "Don't catch me, don't catch me! Second uncle, save me, save me..."

An Yanyuan watched as their figures left. In the end, he still didn't say anything.

Right now, his expression was also extremely ugly.

He had completely not expected that An Hao would do something like this.

Even if his father An YanKun wanted Anshi Group so badly, he wouldn't be stupid enough to reveal the company's trade secrets to others.

An Hao was truly, extremely foolish!

After An Hao was completely taken away, the conference room finally quieted down.

In the silence.

Things became somewhat awkward.

After all, just earlier, so many people had made accusations against An Nuan.

Some of the accusations were even somewhat excessive.

With Zhang Hezhen taking the lead.

Right now, Zhang Hezhen was clearly somewhat at a loss for words.

He stood there, wanting to speak yet couldn't get a single word out.

An Nuan didn't pay him any mind either. She said to all the directors and high-level management, "I only obtained this video today too. It was when Secretary Luo happened to be checking her surveillance videos that she discovered it by chance. I reported it to the Inspection Department to catch An Hao not out of petty vengeance. I'm not unwilling to let him off for the sake of our kinship. But a dog can't stop eating shit. Without giving him some punishment, he would never know the severity of something like this! More importantly, this doesn't only involve us An family members, it also involves the over 10,000 employees of Anshi Group, top to bottom. If I indulged An Hao, it would be irresponsible to the company. So Dad, don't blame me for taking action without your consent. I did what I thought was right."

An Yanyuan looked at his daughter.

Her words left him quite impressed.

On one hand, she took responsibility for reporting An Hao upon herself, at least avoiding idle gossip about him as the second uncle being ruthless towards his nephew. On the other hand, she also explained why An Hao had to be caught - the logic that the emperor and commoners are equal in the face of crime. Anshi would absolutely not favor anyone when it came to wrongdoings. In doing so, she set an example with An Hao, warning others not to make the same mistake. More importantly, it showed that even towards their own An family members, Anshi could be so uncompromising when it came to wrongdoing, let alone when others made mistakes.

It accomplished several things in one move.

An Yanyuan even wondered if his daughter was really only 22 years old?!

How could a 22 year old be so thoughtful and considerate?! How could she think things through so comprehensively?!

Thinking of how miserably An Nuan had just been pushed by the directors earlier.

This sudden reversal.

Made him feel extremely gratified!
