Chapter 1817: When a Person is Shameless, They are Invincible

The assistant had already taken out their phone.

Hearing Li Xingyan's words, they stopped their movements and waited for Li Xingyan's next instruction.

But who would have thought that Li Xingyan would suddenly change his attitude.

He said, "No need to rush the investigation; it's not an urgent matter anyway."

The assistant was bewildered.

They did not understand how their boss's attitude could change so quickly.

Furthermore, was the boss actually anxious to know the result, or not?

The assistant quietly glanced at Li Xingyan.

Based on their observation, Li Xingyan was in an extremely foul mood at this moment.

As for the reason for his foul mood...

It definitely had to do with that app mentioned next door.

From this, it could be seen...

The boss was being hypocritical!

Having reached this conclusion, the assistant began to take action.

However, to save the boss's face, the assistant conducted the investigation quietly.

When they had the results, they put on a very surprised look and said, "I was really lucky this time; I just asked a former colleague, and they helped bridge the connection to find one of the app's engineering designers!"

"And then?"

"This engineer introduced that this is an app not yet on the market, currently in the testing phase; the specific information is all here."

After speaking, the assistant handed over their phone.

The information on it was detailed and neatly arranged.

At a glance, it was clear it hadn't been obtained "casually."

But whether it was Li Xingyan or the assistant, both tacitly understood this.

Li Xingyan, having received the phone, looked at it quietly.

And he looked at it very carefully.

Seeing this, the assistant knew their arrangement was still in line with the boss's wishes.

This made them heave a sigh of relief.

But the next second...

"Can you get the test version of the app? I want to try it."

The tone Li Xingyan used to say this was very relaxed.

The assistant, however, was in a bind: "This..."

"Using some special methods is fine too; I'm just curious and won't disclose it to outsiders."

Li Xingyan hated using underhanded methods to compete.

Yet this time, he actually gave the assistant a hint...

The assistant was secretly shocked, but didn't show it on the surface, only lowering their head to say, "Then I will think of a way."

"Try to be quick."

The assistant was confused again.

The boss had just said he wasn't in a hurry, but it turned out he was being hypocritical.

Now that he was urging them to be quick... what was his original intention?

Was he being hypocritical again?

The assistant quietly took a look at Li Xingyan.

Then, they confirmed one thing: the boss was truly in a hurry!

Since that was the case...

Then they would have to use some crooked methods!

One hour later—

Li Xingyan and the assistant were crouching together in a corner outside the research institute.

Because they had been crouching for a while, Li Xingyan's legs had gone numb.

He wanted to stand up and move around.

But the assistant hurriedly stopped them in a low voice: "Don't move around, you'll be discovered!"

"Then how much longer do we have to wait?"

"This... it's hard to say."

Li Xingyan's patience was officially exhausted!

He gritted his teeth and questioned the assistant: "Is this the method you thought of?"

"Please don't be angry; it's like this: because the app hasn't been released yet, our phones can't download it; we can only wait for the designer to operate it using his phone."

"Then why hasn't he come down yet? Didn't you communicate well?"

"We communicated, but to avoid being discovered, he has to find the right timing... ah, he's here!"

The assistant finally waited for the designer, their voice trembling slightly.

The designer looked left and right, then said sneakily: "We have to be quick, I only have ten minutes."

"Ten minutes is enough, hand over the phone!"

The designer did not recognize Li Xingyan.

But forced by Li Xingyan's pressure, he still obediently handed over the phone.

Then he said, "Click here and speak into the microphone; the program will automatically provide feedback based on the algorithm."

After hearing this, Li Xingyan spoke into the phone's microphone, repeating the words Wei Yangyang had said at the Water Park that day.

Because the repetition was too fluent, the designer thought this person had memorized the lines in advance to test it.

And they had done similar tests countless times.

The result was definitely fine!

In fact, it was indeed fine.

But Li Xingyan's expression was very unpleasant.

He stared at the text on the phone screen and discovered that the content was exactly what Deng Yunhai had said at the time!

So, Deng Yunhai had indeed used this app to cheat!

This kind of behavior is truly despicable!

However...

He hadn't been holding a phone at the time!

Li Xingyan frowned.

But then he immediately relaxed his brow.

He remembered that although Deng Yunhai didn't have a phone, he was wearing Bluetooth earphones!

Thinking about it, he must have used the Bluetooth earphones to pick up sound and transmit it to a phone far away to provide guidance.

Now the truth was out.

And Li Xingyan also confirmed one thing: Wei Yangyang was truly a love-struck fool, and hopelessly stupid at that!

Li Xingyan pursed his lips tightly, looking like a storm was brewing.

The designer was a bit frightened.

Glancing again at the phone held tightly by Li Xingyan...

The designer swallowed and asked tentatively, "Um, can I have my phone back?"

He was really afraid that the man opposite him would smash his phone without saying a word!

Fortunately, Li Xingyan handed the phone over and said, "Many thanks, you won't be short-changed."

"That's easy to say, just don't come looking for me again in the future."

The designer took the phone and left in a hurry.

He thought to himself that he never wanted to have contact with this terrifying man again!

The assistant also felt that Li Xingyan was very terrifying at this moment.

But besides being afraid, he was also a bit worried, so he asked, "Are you alright?"

Li Xingyan did not answer, but instead said coldly, "Truly, there is no limit to how shameless a person can be!"

Upon hearing this, the assistant made a bitter face and said, "If I've done something wrong, just tell me directly, I will definitely change it!"

"It has nothing to do with you, why are you taking the blame on yourself?"

Hearing this, the assistant felt relieved!

Afterwards, the assistant secretly observed Li Xingyan.

At this moment, Li Xingyan was looking slightly upward, staring at the sky with a cold expression.

The assistant did not know what Li Xingyan was thinking.

But he was certain... someone was about to be unlucky!

On the other side, Wei Yangyang was in the office, busy as a bee.

Suddenly, she sneezed.

Because of the force, she almost threw out her back.

A colleague saw Wei Yangyang holding her waist after sneezing and joked, "Little Wei, your body isn't doing so well, you need to take some calcium."

"It's not just calcium I need; I've been working overtime so much lately that my body is falling apart, I need a boost for everything."

As she spoke, Wei Yangyang raised her voice and shouted, "Director, don't you agree?"

Wei Yangyang's goal was obvious; she just wanted the director to treat them to a late-night snack.

Other colleagues joined in the clamor.

The director also understood everyone's little scheme.

But she didn't respond immediately; instead, she stood up, walked to Wei Yangyang's side, and first placed a document in front of her.

Only then did she say, "Do the design for this client first, and once it's done, I'll definitely treat you all."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yangyang's face fell: "My current workload is already very heavy."

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
