Chapter 235: That’s Too Easy On Her
Zhang Cuihua was too anxious.
Throughout the ordeal, Gu Yan stood there calmly.
“Zhang Cuihua, you are a pretty dedicated door guard.
Why did you specifically investigate who frequents Captain Li’s office these past few days?”
“I’m… concerned about Captain Li!”
“Oh, so you care a lot about Captain Li’s fountain pen too, right?” Gu Yan questioned.
Zhang Cuihua had clashed with Gu Yan a few times, and she never, not even once, gained the upper hand.
She was well aware Gu Yan was very smart.
Hence, she answered the question carefully.
She glanced at the unperturbed Li Haili and the frowning Han Jiao before asking, “Gu Yan, what do you mean? Are you saying I’m framing you?”
“Well, that is what you claim.
I didn’t say anything about that.” Gu Yan looked at Li Haili and said slowly, “Captain Li, is that pen a souvenir you got during the alliance convention you attended with the other captains?”
Pens like those were only given to soldiers with a captain rank and above.
Gu Yan found out about this in her past life.
Zhang Cuihua was only right about one thing.
Gu Yan really liked this style of pen.
However, that was in her previous life.
But…
Li Haili’s eyes lit up.
She nodded.
“Yes.”
“Then, Lu Ye also went to that meeting, right?” Gu Yan asked.
Li Haili assumed Lu Ye was the one who told Gu Yan, so she nodded.
“Yes, Lu Ye was sitting in the row next to me.”
“That means Lu Ye would have one that is exactly the same, right?” Gu Yan smiled and looked at Zhang Cuihua with a chilling death stare.
“Zhang Cuihua, I can ask for that pen straight from Lu Ye.
Do I still need to take the captain’s pen?”
Zhang Cuihua’s face went pale.
Her legs lost some of their strength.
She tried to act calm.
“I-I don’t know.
Perhaps you are embarrassed to ask Captain Lu for it!”
The more she thought about it, the more she felt her reasoning sounded logical.
Gu Yan didn’t hide her sneer at all.
She turned to Li Haili and said, “Captain Li, I believe you guys have seen how Captain Lu treats me.
There is no way he wouldn’t give me a fountain pen.
Something immoral like stealing is something I would never do.”
If it was something else, it might be debatable, but the pen is indeed something Lu Ye owned.
In fact, Li Haili didn’t believe Gu Yan was a person who would steal.
Lu Ye treated Gu Yan so well.
The moment he knew she would take the exam, he helped her in every way possible.
How could he not be willing to give her a mere fountain pen?
Even if she were to ask for ten pens, Lu Ye wouldn’t hesitate to give them.
Li Haili felt relieved and said, “Gu Yan, you are clearly innocent in this incident.
You can go back.
As for Zhang Cuihua…”
“Captain, Zhang Cuihua might be confused.
She tried to set me up.
She probably didn’t mean to do anything.
I don’t blame her on this,” Gu Yan said.
Li Haili, Han Jiao, and even Zhang Cuihua were taken aback.
