Chapter 440: Chapter 326: Is this Noble Lady Little Pear’s Biological Mother?_1

Song Yunque was indeed lovable when in the mood, but his tongue could be quite sharp. Nothing Lin Ranzhu could say would stand up to him.

Fearing that he might continue, that the girl might do something rash, Gu Li paused her work to intervene. “That’s enough. You’re a grown man, why are you arguing with a little girl? Song Yunque, do you remember the promise you made to me?”

“I…”

Gu Li’s question left Song Yunque speechless.

Lin Ranzhu offered Gu Li a grateful smile. “Sis, thank you for standing by me in times like this.”

Gu Li patted her arm, sighing: “No matter what, I trust my judgment.”

Turning to her close friends, she continued, “Until the truth comes out, I ask that nobody treat Little Bamboo with suspicion. Even if she had secretly recorded Yunque and Yining’s practice sessions, it would only prove that she was used. She did not betray us.”

“Sis, aren’t you being partial?”

Song Yunque couldn’t help but protest.

Gu Li glanced at him, her tone chilly. “If it were you under suspicion, I would do the same.”

Devotedly standing by her friends, this was Gu Li’s principle.

However, if a friend truly betrayed her, she would show no mercy.

“Brother Que, I believe in Little Bamboo too.”

Finally, Da Ha spoke.

Ye Yining also nodded. “I believe too.”

Seeing his friends come to Lin Ranzhu’s defense, Song Yunque’s face darkened. But in the end, he swallowed his wrath.

Despite clenching his fists, he nodded. “Alright, I’ll trust you this time.”

“Thank you! Thanks, everyone.”

Lin Ranzhu bowed repeatedly to everyone, tears streaming down her face.

Why was she, with all her shortcomings, worthy of such trust? After bringing a bug into the company and making such a mistake, she felt she didn’t deserve to stay…

In that moment, Lin Ranzhu made up her mind. She had to leave her supportive sister, Gu Li.

She couldn’t burden Gu Li anymore. Sobbing, she…

Gu Li did not know of Lin Ranzhu’s resolution. Her attention was focused on dissecting the spy device.

The device had a recording feature. With the extracted data, she found a segment of Ye Yining practicing “Cangtian” in the office. Song Yunque’s voice could be heard occasionally as they discussed.

The recording was made two weeks ago.

So, after stealing this song, the culprits took less than a week to practice, and swiftly released the song in order to seize the market initiative.

The truth was out. Everyone in the room reacted differently.

Even though they were prepared, they couldn’t help but feel enraged. Directing their fury not at Lin Ranzhu, but at the ruthless people. Angered by their vile, underhanded tactics, their willingness to use their own kin.

Da Ha advised Lin Ranzhu, “Little Bamboo, I suggest you cut ties with your cousin. Otherwise, she will surely cause your downfall someday.”

Ye Yining only walked over and put a comforting arm around Lin Ranzhu’s shoulder.

In times like these, the most anguished would probably be the young girl who was betrayed by her family. She herself had once been hurt by loved ones and understood the feeling.

“Enough! Let’s keep this among us! Regarding GE, I will not let them off!”

Fearing that his anger might once again upset Lin Ranzhu, Song Yunque left after these words, looking grim.

“Brother Que, wait for me.”

Worried that something would happen to him, Da Ha followed.

Soon, the spacious office was left with only three women.

Checking her watch, Gu Li suggested: “It’s still early, and I guess we all missed breakfast. How about we go for some dim sum?”

Even though Ye Yining had already eaten, she figured Lin Ranzhu hadn’t. Thus, she said: “Sure, there’s a teahouse nearby that makes great Guangdong-style dim sum.”

Lin Ranzhu didn’t reply. Her mind was almost blank, and she hadn’t yet regained her spirit.

Gu Li and Ye Yining exchanged a glance, understanding each other’s thoughts. They each took one of Lin Ranzhu’s arms.

Gu Li blinked her beautiful eyes, a bright smile in them. “Oh dear, it’s all behind us now. Give me a smile, huh? Smile and you’ll make my day.”
