850 It’s Because of Me
Su Ling gripped the bag in her hand tightly as if it gave her the courage to continue, “I have the real account book here. If it’s published, you’ll be finished. Those who donated to you will come looking for you.”
Looking at Su Ling’s stubborn look, Shen Hanxing pursed her lips and chuckled. “It’s fine if you don’t want to read it. I’ll tell you.” She was exceptionally patient, and her voice was sweet and pleasant. It made people feel good. However, the way she looked at Su Ling had a hint of pity in it, making Su Ling uneasy. A bad feeling welled up in her heart. Could the doc.u.ment in her hand be fake? No, how could it be? Qiao Xi had secretly gotten this report while she was cleaning. How could it be fake? Shen Hanxing was not a saint. How could she have foreseen Su Ling’s plans?
Su Ling’s face was pale and she was a little fl.u.s.tered. She subconsciously looked at Qiao Xi to get affirmation from her. However, Qiao Xi was immersed in her own thoughts. She looked at the ground with her head lowered. She did not give Su Ling any response.
“If only Young Madam Lu wasn’t so arrogant. If you have investigated more, you would have found out one thing.” Looking at Su Ling’s pale face, Shen Hanxing said directly, “Ever since our foundation was established, we have never accepted donations from others. All the funds will be supported by me. In the future, the women we have helped will repay the foundation.” Unfortunately, the foundation had only been established for a short period of time, so there was no monetary return. However, many of them chose to work full-time or part-time at the foundation to help other women.
Women were often soft-hearted. Even if they had gone through hardships, they were still willing to open their arms and help others. It was impossible that Shen Hanxing would fake the accounts and embezzle money from the foundation. Why would she do that? That would be stealing her own money. Although public welfare projects were tax-deductible, she had to find a way to claim her money in the end. Wouldn’t that be too troublesome for her?
!!“No, it’s impossible!” Su Ling felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She retorted, “I saw Shaoyang’s transfer records. He donated ten million to the foundation. If you don’t accept donations from others, then what’s with the bill?”
“Didn’t Lu Shaoyang tell you that he lost the 10 million to me and Mr. Ji?” Shen Hanxing raised her eyebrows and smiled. “At that time, there were many witnesses at the farmhouse. I won the money. I invested my money into the foundation. Is there a problem?” Why would anyone tell her how to deal with the windfall?
Su Ling was going crazy. How could it be? She came here today to show off her arrogance because she had this doc.u.ment. If this doc.u.ment was fake, wouldn’t she be a clown?
“If you don’t accept donations, then what’s with this doc.u.ment?” Su Ling was unwilling to give up. She looked at Shen Hanxing aggressively and questioned, “This doc.u.ment was found in your office. Do you have nothing better to do, so you gathered evidence against yourself? Unless…” She looked at Qiao Xi with a sinister gaze and continued, “Did you two team up to trick me?”
Qiao Xi’s face was pale. She had been limited by the environment she had lived in since she was young. She had little exposure and knowledge. As an employee of the foundation, she knew that the foundation did not accept donations from others. Yet, she did not know that the doc.u.ment she had might be fake. At this moment, her mind was blank. She subconsciously shook her head. “No, I didn’t…” As soon as she finished speaking, her lips trembled. If she had not leaked the information or teamed up with Shen Hanxing, how did she get this doc.u.ment? Could it be that Shen Hanxing had been guarding against her?
“It’s because of me.” At this moment, the door of the small lounge was suddenly pushed open. The team leader walked out and looked at Qiao Xi with disappointment. “I noticed that you have an extraordinary interest in Mrs. Ji’s office. You often loiter at the door and panic when you b.u.mped into others, so I reported this to Mrs. Ji. Also, I forged this doc.u.ment. If you look carefully, you will know that the accounts are completely different.” She laughed mockingly. “I’m one of the fund-raiser here, but I don’t even have hundreds of thousands for charity.”
When she first discovered Qiao Xi’s behavior, the team leader instinctively felt that something was wrong, but she was afraid that she would overthink it. Shen Hanxing had done her a favor, she had to protect Shen Hanxing and the foundation wholeheartedly.
