Lu Lingche had a cold expression on his face. His team had identified nine faults – so why did Dongfang Mu emerge victorious?

He didn’t dwell on his suspicions for long. Soon enough, Cross revealed the number of faults discovered by each corporation.

In first place was Eastern Empire. The number following its name wasn’t nine —it was ten.

A substantial stir ensued within the room at the sight of that number.

Lu Lingche understood the situation the moment he saw the number. He shot a glance at his corporation’s team, convinced they were good-for-nothings.

Cross was visibly excited: “As everyone can see, Eastern Empire’s team found ten faults – in fact, our own team could only find nine! Thank you, Eastern Empire. Your engineers gave us a great surprise!”

Dongfang Mu had a broad smile on his face. He stood up on behalf of his team, nodded at Cross, then sat down to a round of applause.

He was delighted, but he couldn’t look at Qiao Yin.

Even though Lu Lingche was arrogant, he had an acute sense of his surroundings. If Dongfang Mu looked at Qiao Yin instantly, then Lu Lingche might become suspicious of Qiao Yin.

At this point, he didn’t want Qiao Yin to attract attention.

Instead of looking at Qiao Yin, Dongfang Mu patted the chief engineer Zhou Zhiyuan, who was next to him: “Well done!”

Zhou Zhiyuan didn’t want, nor dare to take credit, because such an act could easily be exposed.

The tenth fault wasn’t found by him.

He opened his mouth to speak but was silenced by Dongfang Mu’s stern gaze.

He promptly shut up, wisely choosing to accept his boss’s praise without protest.

Qiao Yin was sitting on the edge of the team, sharing a computer with Secretary Wan – the pair looked like outsiders who didn’t understand anything.

Of course, the computer was Qiao Yin’s, and she was the one using it – Secretary Wan hadn’t touched it from the beginning.

He didn’t understand much about system faults, but he clearly saw that after the team reported nine faults, Qiao Yin reported one more.

Secretary Wan was wordlessly stunned!

Among all the people present, none had found the tenth fault – not even Siya Automobiles’ personnel. But Qiao Yin had!

No wonder their young master was obsessed with Qiao Yin to the point of losing his mind. Yet, when he saw her in person, he dared not touch her, only pretending to straighten her collar to make some physical contact.

She had enough ability to awe Dongfang Mu, so he treated her differently than other women, respecting her boundary and not daring to overstep.

Next was the second round of the competition.

Whoever repaired these ten faults in the shortest time would be the winner.

Everyone present, except the respective CEOs or team leaders, was briskly getting down to work.

Qiao Yin was neither stressed nor busy. She felt the challenge level of this project wasn’t high, so she began to relax.

She fixed the fault she found, leaving the rest to the other team members— Dongfang Mu’s team was also highly capable, so they shouldn’t have trouble fixing the other faults.

Having finished her work, Qiao Yin felt somewhat idle. She turned towards Secretary Wan and engaged him in a quiet conversation.

Secretary Wan was forthright and articulate. As a graduate from a prestigious university with high IQ.and EQ, he was adept at conversation, which is why he was Dongfang Mu’s chief secretary.

So, the two hit it off quite well.

Lu Lingche glanced at Dongfang Mu’s team, noticed everyone else was busy, while Qiao Yin and Secretary Wan were casually chatting, and then looked away.

He ridiculed himself inwardly; there was actually a moment when he doubted Qiao Yin.

He must have gone mad, he thought..
