After Transmigrating into a book, I Was Played By a Black Lotus

Chapter 56 Sabotage

Bai Xiying felt her mind go blank, unable to believe it!

Standing behind her, Mu Muqing silently observed with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. She placed a hand on Bai Xiying's shoulder, soothingly saying, "See, there's nothing here. Could it be that you forgot to take it? Or maybe you lost it elsewhere? As for what was on your computer, it could have been accidentally deleted."

The hand on her shoulder made the coldness in Bai Xiying's eyes deepen.

"I... I don't know..." Bai Xiying stared blankly, feeling lost.

A hidden smile flickered in Mu Muqing's eyes. "Do you need a day off to search for it? If you really can't find it, it's fine. Missing this competition is unfortunate, but you can always refine your skills and wait for the next one."

Bai Xiying's expression was blank as she shook her head, saying nothing. In a daze, she left the server room without even bidding Mu Muqing goodbye.

Mu Muqing, left behind in the server room, was not angry. She turned back, intrigued, and glanced at the screen before happily returning to her office.

Once back, Wang Xiaoxiao, who had been closely watching her, hurried over to ask what happened.

But Bai Xiying simply shook her head, her eyes dim. "Nothing at all."

"What?" Wang Xiaoxiao exclaimed, not caring about the volume of her voice, utterly bewildered. "How could that be? It clearly seems like someone didn't want you to participate in the competition!"

After saying this, Wang Xiaoxiao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

As far as Bai Xiying knew, the only person who didn't want her to participate in the competition was President Mu, who had been mentioned before...

But why would President Mu do that? She had no reason to.

Wang Xiaoxiao quickly dismissed her bizarre and unfounded speculation.

Bai Xiying lowered her gaze. "But the surveillance footage shows nothing."

With no evidence on the footage, even if Bai Xiying had a thousand suspicions, she couldn't unjustly accuse anyone, nor could she find any leads to recover her lost work.

Wang Xiaoxiao felt uneasy, especially seeing Bai Xiying's expression of despair—it made her heart ache!

How could this happen?!

Now that the work she needed to submit was missing, there was obviously no time to redo it.

All day, Bai Xiying was absent-minded. Wang Xiaoxiao didn't dare to say anything more, just comforting her with a gentle pat on the shoulder.
