“She hasn’t returned home since she left the company?” Shi Xiao asked after a full two minutes.

Zhao Cheng hurriedly said, “Yes, and last night, after Miss Yuan left, there was no surveillance footage of her return.”

Seeing that Shi Xiao’s expression was getting darker and darker, Zhao Cheng didn’t dare to continue reporting the bad news. He could only say, “We’ve already sent people out. I’m also checking the surveillance cameras at the entrance of the surrounding companies and the cars that passed by here yesterday. I hope something was recorded by the car recorder.”

When Lin Xi knocked on the door and brought the head of the technical department in, Shi Xiao’s office felt like an ice cave despite the air conditioner not being turned on.

The supervisor trembled as he reported the situation of the data being stolen from yesterday to now. He didn’t even dare to look up at Shi Xiao.

Shi Xiao turned on his computer and saw the content reported by the head of the technical department. As expected, the data of the technical department had been lost. Although the code hadn’t been hacked, the code clearly showed signs of being copied. Also, all the users’ information had been stolen.

“Did I spend so much money to hire you just to cause trouble for the company?” Shi Xiao said in a cold voice. “The firewall has already been upgraded, so why was the information still stolen?”

Shi Xiao had only said these two sentences since the supervisor entered, but these two sentences already made the supervisor break out in a cold sweat.

After Lin Xi gave him a secret look, the supervisor took a deep breath and said, “President Shi, this matter isn’t the technical department’s fault. The company’s higher-up used her private account to log into the backstage system and stole the data while everyone was already off work.”

He took out the tablet and placed it on Shi Xiao’s table gently. “This is the information record of the login from yesterday. Miss Yuan used her manager’s account to enter, so the data was lost. Fortunately, she’s not a technician and only copied a portion of the code and data. The core content hasn’t been tampered with.”

He also knew that Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao had gotten a divorce. The moment the two of them got a divorce, such a big thing happened, so anyone would think that Yuan Shu did this out of hatred.

After he looked at Lin Xi, he immediately felt emboldened and said, “But President, don’t worry. We have already strengthened the firewall and quickly upgraded the website. Now, the users have been informed to change their passwords.”

“Yuan Shu entered the core system with her manager’s account? She even copied the data?” Shi Xiao continued to ask.

Lin Xi hurriedly replied, “Shi Xiao, have you forgotten? You asked her to hand it over to me yesterday and said that I would be in charge of the website in the future. However, Miss Yuan hasn’t handed over her manager’s account to me. The technical department also said that they didn’t receive your notification, so the manager’s account is still in her hands and hasn’t been handed over to me.”

The supervisor also hurriedly said, “Yes, President Shi. If we didn’t receive the notice, we definitely wouldn’t give Miss Lin’s account. Moreover, Miss Yuan has been managing the website previously, so her account has the right to enter the backstage. She kept saying that she doesn’t know about technology, but she logged in just to look at the data. I didn’t expect her to be an expert and steal the data overnight.”

Pa! Shi Xiao threw the teacup over. The supervisor didn’t dodge in time and his chin was lacerated. He was in so much pain that he was about to cry, but he didn’t dare to make a sound.

Shi Xiao sneered. “Didn’t you just say that she didn’t know anything about technology and wasn’t able to steal the core technology? Now, you’re saying that she’s an expert? I think you’re trying to push the blame to a tech noob!”

After Shi Xiao stood up angrily, the supervisor was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back. Seeing Shi Xiao’s angry expression, the supervisor suddenly felt that Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao’s divorce wasn’t what he had imagined.

“Get lost. I’ll give you two hours to fix the website. Otherwise, you’ll be kicked out of this industry completely! In the future, go to the construction site to move bricks!” After Shi Xiao threw the tablet on the ground, the supervisor hurriedly nodded and left dejectedly.

Lin Xi also left the office silently and narrowed her eyes. She felt that this matter was too strange, so while in the bathroom, she hurriedly told that person about what happened there.

At this moment, Zhao Cheng, who was in the office, finally received news about Yuan Shu. He hurriedly took out his phone and handed it to Shi Xiao. “There’s news of Miss Yuan. Yesterday, she went here. The driver of a passing car took a photo..”
