Chapter 499 There is no misunderstanding between us
"Housekeeper, pour a cup of tea for the guest."
Ji Weitian suddenly turned her head and called out, sitting on the sofa with the two children and looking up at Lu Jing, who was still stunned in place.
"President Lu, if you had something you wanted to say to me, you can say it now."
She appeared very composed, trying to bring the situation back to normal, even taking the initiative to speak to Lu Jing.
However, the blush on her cheeks betrayed her.
She should have clarified, she and Qin Nanyu weren’t that kind of relationship.
But after careful thought, what Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling said wasn’t false—she indeed had spent many nights accidentally... sleeping in Qin Nanyu’s room.
She was beyond defense.
If her clarification didn’t come out right, and if Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling got agitated, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t blurt out even more.
For safety’s sake, less said was better.
The housekeeper quickly brought over a cup of tea for Lu Jing.
He also brought a cup of jasmine tea for Ji Weitian, her favorite.
Lu Jing’s eyes narrowed, his already shocked heart now beyond expression.
The housekeeper’s meticulous care of Ji Weitian seemed to confirm what he had just heard from Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling.
Ji Weitian’s status at the Qin Family Villa was exceptional, whether it was the housekeeper or the other servants, they all regarded her as the lady of the house.
"Have you seen enough, President Lu? If there is nothing else, then I won’t keep you," Ji Weitian said, seeing Lu Jing still not speaking, just staring at her, she frowned slightly, displeased.
At her words, Lu Jing finally snapped back to reality.
Realizing that he had been somewhat inappropriate, he apologized proactively, "What I’ve really been wanting to say to you, is all about the misunderstanding before."
Lu Jing took out his phone, opened an email with an electronic document, and handed it to Ji Weitian.
"Regarding the previous incident where Zhao Zhao framed you and stole the labor results of your laboratory, from start to finish, it was all his sole arrangement. RE Group might have a tough style, but I would never use such despicable means to compete with peers."
The biggest characteristic of Lu Jing as a person is that he never sees himself as a good man.
But he dares to say he is a man of integrity.
Yes means yes, no means no.
If he really did something, he wouldn’t hide it or be afraid to admit it.
So, when he said that the previous matter was all Zhao Zhao acting alone for performance’s sake, it was definitely true.
Ji Weitian glanced at the internal document on his phone, without any comment, handed the phone back to him.
Although she was surprised in her heart at how audacious Zhao Zhao was to deceive his superiors and inferiors, her facial expression didn’t change much.
"As for this matter, I’ve already said, the biggest victim isn’t me, to me, whether the instigator is Zhao Zhao or you, makes no difference, you apologized to the wrong person, you shouldn’t have come to me, you should go to Qin Technology Group."
"But I just want to apologize to you!" Lu Jing blurted out without thinking.
This sudden statement stunned Ji Weitian.
She raised her eyebrows in confusion, unable to fathom his intentions.
Logically, the theft of laboratory results by Zhao Zhao in collaboration with Qian Min didn’t have much to do with her.
Qian Min had wanted to frame her as a scapegoat, but ultimately, it had no effect on her.
On the surface, she was just a data room manager, insignificant to the laboratory.
In the whole incident, the person Lu Jing shouldn’t apologize to was her.
But, oddly enough...
