Hello, Heir

Upon learning Zhuang Nainai’s background, Zhang Chaowen would’ve tried to curry favor with her.

Nevertheless…

A rush of anger surged through Si Zhengting.

Even though Ji Chen had already looked into the matter personally, and he had seen the results of Ji Chen’s research, seeing it with his own eyes made it more shocking.

He never would have thought that Zhuang Nainai was going through so much in the design department!

The most detestable thing was that she was going through so many hardships, but she had never voiced them out. Instead, she was bearing with them.

Was she so unwilling to admit that she was his wife?

He turned around and saw the women who were standing by his side in a daze. They were staring at Zhuang Nainai in pity.

During that period of time, their relationship was clearly improving.

He had clearly felt that he was leading a really blissful life during that period of time, so much so that he felt that he was living in a dream.

But now, she was not even willing to speak up about her difficulties and her grievances in order for him to resolve them on her behalf?

What was he to her?

She had left him without a thought five years ago, and five years later… she was so guarded and distant.

Si Zhengting was beyond hurt.

He gripped the takeaway bags tightly. He wished that he could just turn around and walk away, leaving her to grapple with the mess on her own.

But in the end… he could not bring himself to do it.

Zhuang Nainai was in a dazed state, unable to perceive nor hear what was happening in front of her own eyes. She could only continue standing blankly.

No one spoke in the room. It was filled with a strange silence.

Zhang Chaowen was so fearful that both his legs were trembling, to the extent that he seemed as though he could not stand upright.

He swallowed, following Si Zhengting’s gaze and turning around to look at Zhuang Nainai. He saw that she looked pale and that she did not dare meet Mr. Si’s gaze. It seemed like she was in shock.

Zhang Chaowen finally found his voice. He looked at Si Zhengting and stuttered, “Mr…. Mr. Si… you… I… ”

He wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say because he wasn’t even sure what kind of situation he was in now!

Thinking closely about what he had said just now, it seemed as though he didn’t say anything inappropriate.

Which company didn’t have someone who found fault with the newcomers?

Right!

That’s the way to go!

So Mr. Si’s anger was definitely not directed at him.

Also, observing how Mr. Si was looking at Zhuang Nainai… in that moment, everything was obvious to Zhang Chaowen.

Zhuang Nainai must have randomly found someone to carry the takeaway boxes for her but had accidentally bumped into Mr. Si.

So was Mr. Si so angry because of Zhuang Nainai?

Zhang Chaowen had been scared out of his wits, so much so that his brain no longer seemed to work properly. He paid no attention to the intricate details surrounding the situation and instead thought that he had understood it completely. He hurriedly moved in front of Zhuang Nainai and scolded, “Zhuang Nainai, how could you ask Mr. Si to help you with the takeaway boxes? You really do not know your place!”

After saying this, he glanced back at Si Zhengting, beaming in an attempt to curry favor with the latter. “Mr. Si, did you drop by as our office is on the way to your destination?”

Zhang Chaowen then recalled that the fashion design department had been working overtime for the past two days and thought that Si Zhengting had mistakenly visited the wrong department. Thus, he walked to the exit and placed himself next to Si Zhengting. In an attempt to please Si Zhengting, he pointed toward the office next to his. “Mr. Si, the fashion design department’s that way. Should I lead the way?”

After saying this, he noticed that Si Zhengting was still staring at Zhuang Nainai. He said presumptuously, “As for Zhuang Nainai, what she did was too much! She has been slacking off at work, and she even took more than an hour to buy some takeaways! She even delivered these takeaways in such terrible state because she felt resentful. We have to fire her, and we should notify all the other companies within the industry about her terrible attitude!”
