Chapter 401: Who Exactly Is the Plagiarizer? (6)

Mi Nuo felt like she had shot herself in the foot at that moment!

The entire venue had gone absolutely silent.

Suddenly, Zhang Tingting cried out, “Zhuang Nainai, I’m sorry for maligning you!”

Some leaders and the remaining employees decided to humble themselves by apologizing to Zhuang Nainai as well.

Man’s nature is good at heart.

Everyone knew that they had maligned Zhuang Nainai, and after thinking about everything that they had done as a result of that belief, they lowered their head in shame.

Zhuang Nainai stared at Si Zhengting in bewilderment. He had cleared her name. The Imperial Group’s employees were looking at her without the disdain and hatred that Zhuang Nainai had witnessed in the past few days. Instead, they were apologizing to her one after another.

She suddenly felt that she was on the verge of tears.

All the suffering she had been through was all worth it at this moment.

She averted her head and willed herself not to shed those tears, then exchanged pleasantries with everyone present.

On the other hand, Si Zhengting had brought the reporters’ meeting to an end powerfully and wrathfully. He had noted down the names of the reporters who had asked Zhuang Nainai unusually difficult questions, then called up their offices to request for these reporters to be punished. His request was on the grounds of how they had violated the contract governing the participants of the Imperial Group’s 100th Year Anniversary Celebration. Both the reporters and their companies would have to compensate the Imperial Group for the former’s behavior!

Once this was settled, the usual festivities surrounding celebrations resumed.

Si Zhengting stood silently at the balcony. No one would disturb him.

Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath then walked over slowly.

She stood behind him and watched him gazing into the distance. She suddenly spoke up, “Si Zhengting, tell me the truth. Do you really believe me?”

Actually…

If anyone else had misunderstood her, she could pretend to be uncaring about it.

And regarding this entire matter about the design drafts, the person who had hurt her most wasn’t the other employees, but Si Zhengting.

His disbelief was like a double-edged sword, leaving no part of both of their bodies unhurt.

As Si Zhengting heard this, a shiver ran through his body. He turned back slowly.

In the darkness, the light that the moon cast on Si Zhengting’s back was cold. He pressed his lips together and did not say anything.

The light in Zhuang Nainai’s eyes dimmed a little.

After a moment, Zhuang Nainai said, “I understand.”

She then turned to leave.

But Si Zhengting grabbed her arm. “Zhuang Nainai, are we… still on bad terms?”

Still on bad terms?

They were suspicious of each other despite being in love. It was tiring living such a life. But he was saying that such a life was good?

The corner of Zhuang Nainai’s lips quirked up in a bitter smile. She flung his hand off her arm violently for the first time, then smirked as she said, “This is not the life I want.”

After she said that, she strode away.

Si Zhengting gazed at her retreating figure and thought back to the time when she had proposed a divorce. He subconsciously started to chase after her, but his cell phone rang at this moment!

He picked up his cell phone and saw that Shi Jinyan was calling. He glanced up and saw that Zhuang Nainai was still within his line of vision. Thus, he hurriedly answered the call and anxiously asked, “Has there been any news about TZ? Have you found her?”

On the other end of the line, he heard Si Jingyu’s slightly weak voice, “Zhengting, listen to me, I’ve thought over the matter regarding the design drafts. Then I suddenly understood what happened! I made a mistake! When I retrieved the design drafts from your study room, I took the wrong ones! It was Nainai’s drafts that I took!”

It was Nainai’s drafts that I took!

That sentence was like a bolt from the blue stunning Si Zhengting!

His eyes grew wide.

He had long since considered this possibility — that he had misunderstood her and he was wrong. However, when the truth of the moment struck him, Si Zhengting felt confused and alarmed by a jumble of emotions!

He dazedly turned around and watched with his dark eyes as Zhuang Nainai’s straight-backed figure slowly left the venue a step at a time…
