Chapter 451


    “You are nning to change the lead and remove an actress under mypany’s stable, and yet you


    didn’t bother to inform me? Furthermore, you are nning to tell me after the fact. Do you want me to


    be thest to know?” Nan Chen sneered.


    At that moment, Liu Yuan didn’t dare utter another word as he looked towards Ouyang Qing.


    “The script wasn’t leaked by Ding Mi,” Nan Chen concluded.


    Ouyang Qing shot another nce at Liu Yuan.


    “Mr. Chen, we want to believe her with regards to this matter. However, she is the only one that saw the


    script and imed that the USB drive is empty. However, when we opened it, the script was inside. You


    have always been professional at work, naturally...”


    “Stop groveling at my feet,” Nan Chen cut him off abruptly, causing the room to fall into silence.


    Nan Chen’s frostiness wasn’t acted out. Instead, he emanated the freezing aura naturally.


    The chill that everyone felt from him was simr to the gush of freezing air from an opened fridge door.


    However, no one dared to reach out and close the fridge door. In fact, it was likely toote to do so.


    “You im that no one believes her, but I do,” Nan Chen dered.


    The silence now was deafening.


    “Chen, I believe Ding too. Now, we’re just discussing...”


    “There’s no need to discuss anything. Everything she said was true,” Nan Chen asserted.


    Even Ning Ran was stunned as she didn’t expect Nan Chen to defend her with such fervor.


    “Mr. Chen, although Ms. Ding is one of yourpany’s actresses, this still rtes to work. You can’t


    just...”


    “When she opened the USB drive, I was beside her. I saw for myself that it was empty. Hence, she is


    telling the truth,” Nan Chen coldly interrupted.


    The room quietened again.


    With Sir Chen as the witness, there’s no longer any room to maneuver.


    No one is going toe out and openly cast doubt on him.


    He is the lead investor, so doubting him would be the equivalent of suicide.


    “Are you saying you saw with your own eyes that the USB drive was empty?” Liu Yuan rified.


    “Yes,” Nan Chen quipped.


    “But when we opened it, the contents of the script were all there. It’s obvious that Ms. Ding had seen


    the script.”


    “So are you suggesting that Ding Mi and I leaked the script together?” Nan Chen looked straight at Liu


    Yuan.


    “I didn’t say that.” Liu Yuan began to panic.


    He had hated Nan Chen because Nan Chen had rebuffed his request to invest in another project.


    However, he wasn’t in a position to challenge Nan Chen directly; therefore, he was resigned to


    scheming behind Nan Chen’s back.


    When Ouyang Qing came into the picture, she noticed the animosity Liu Yuan felt for Nan Chen.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Hence, she recruited Liu Yuan into her fold and formed an alliance with him.


    Liu Yuan was naturally delighted to have the Ouyang family as his patrons. After all, everyone knew


    how wealthy they were.


    But more importantly, Ouyang Qing was a beauty.


    Despite being married, Liu Yuan’s interest in prettydies never waned.


    Therefore, he lusted over her although his desire was never reciprocated.


    “If any of you believe that Ding Mi and I leaked the script together, you are wee to withdraw your


    investments in the movie and leave at once,” Nan Chen dered.


    Obviously, no one dared to say a word.


    “Chen, we are just discussing it. No one is using Ms. Ding of anything, so please don’t


    misunderstand,” Ouyang Qing frantically rified.


    “I have provided you with the evidence, so what’s left to discuss?” Nan Chen demanded.


    The silence continued.


    Ning Ran finally understood that it didn’t matter whether one’s words made sense. What was more


    important was the status of the person saying it.


    Under the current circumstances, no one would dare take any action against Nan Chen even if he did


    leak the document on purpose.


    I’ll do whatever I please, and there’s nothing any of you can do about it.


    Luckily, Nan Chen was there to back her up. Or else, there was no way Ning Ran could exin her


    way out of the situation.


    “Initially, I didn’t n on exining. But without my presence, I was worried all of you will pick on her.


    To be honest, she is more than capable of proving her innocence and didn’t need my help anyway,”


    Nan Chen added.


    Everyone was puzzled by hisst sentence.


    Isn’t it obvious Sir Chen was standing up for her? Why did he still im that she can prove her own


    innocence?


    “She can easily get someone to exin what is going on with the USB drive. And that person will be


    arriving anytime now,” Nan Chen exined smugly.


    Ning Ran was confused as she didn’t ask anyone for help. Since when did I do such a thing?


    With that, everyone sat and waited. No one dared to utter a single word.


    A few minutester, the door swung open.


    Everyone expected someone important, but all they saw was pair of children.


    Both of them had exquisite features and were extremely adorable.


    Shocked, no one had the faintest why a pair of children suddenly appeared.


    However, after taking a closer look, they were obviously Nan Chen’s children. Given how much they


    resembled him, even an idiot could see they were his.


    Erbao looked at Ning Ran before ncing at Nan Chen. After that, she ambled towards Ning Ran’s


    side and snuggled up to her Mommy.


    On their way here, Jiang Zhe had briefed them that the adults were having an important meeting. Once


    they entered, they shouldn’t make a fuss.


    Thus, Erbao remembered the instructions and stayed by Ning Ran’s side obediently.


    “This is the technical expert she has invited to solve the problem,” Nan Chen pointed at Dabao.


    Dabao nodded politely. “Good day, everyone. My name is Ning Sirui.”


    After introducing himself, he walked towards Ning Ran’s side.


    “Ding, this is an investors meeting. Why did you bring your children here?” Ouyang Qing sneered.


    Ning Ran ignored Ouyang Qing’sments and spoke directly to Dabao, “When I plugged in this USB


    drive back home, there’s nothing inside it. But the contents appeared when they plugged it in here.


    Help me find out what’s going on.”


    “Sure,” Dabao acknowledged.


    As Dabao approached, Ouyang Qing’s assistant stopped him.


    “We can’t just allow kids to meddle with theputer, can we?”


    “Dabao is not an ordinary kid!” Erbao shouted in defiance.


    “Let him do it,” Ouyang Qing instructed.


    However, Dabao could hardly see anything as the meeting table was too tall for him.


    Wang Xiaoou quickly stood up and pushed her chair over. After adjusting it to the right height, she


    ced Dabao on it. Only then was it enough for him to see the screen.


    As Dabao’s fingers danced on the keyboard, the documents on theputer suddenly disappeared.


    “Mommy, was this what you saw? An empty drive?” Dabao asked.


    “That’s right.”


    “Did the child delete the file?” the crowd gasped.


    After that, Dabao hit a few more keys quickly, and the document reappeared.


    “This USB drive is custom made with additional encryption features. There are twoyers of security to


    bypass. The firstyer requires the password, but it still won’t show the contents. Only with additional


    steps can we unlock the secondyer to see the contents. My Mommy’sputer skills are just


    ordinary; hence, there’s no way she can solve it. But I can,” Dabao dered.


    Nan Chen frowned at Dabao’s words as he was supposed to have seen it together with Ning Ran.


    Now that Dabao had asserted Ning Ran’sputer skills were just ordinary, it indirectly meant that his


    own skills were the same. Hence, Dabao had implied that he couldn’t decode the secondyer of


    security either.


    No matter how one saw it, it still sounded embarrassing for Sir Chen.


    Luckily, theputer whiz happened to be his son, which was the only constion for Sir Chen.
