Upon hearing this, Zhuang Nainai felt that her mind was in a daze.

The Gu Corporation’s design concept was identical to the Imperial Group’s?!

How could this be?!

After she had handed over the design drafts to the Gus, she didn’t pay any attention to the matter any longer. Could it be that the Gus had found someone else to steal Si Jingyu’s designs?

Zhuang Nainai raised her head and looked at the people seated in front of her.

If someone had really stolen the design drafts and handed them over to the Gu Corporation, then the person could only be herself.

Because she was the only person in the company who had relations with the Gu Corporation.

So, seeing how they had summoned her to the conference room as though they were judges presiding over a trial, could they perhaps be suspecting that she had stolen the design drafts?

Zhuang Nainai clenched her fist. Her first reaction was to glare at Si Zhengting. Did he think so as well?!

But Si Zhengting was expressionless as usual. His dark eyes were impenetrable.

His demeanor caused Zhuang Nainai’s heart to sink.

She turned her gaze to Ding Mengya. There was a ghastly expression on Ding Mengya’s face. She glanced at Zhuang Nainai disappointedly.

Zhuang Nainai turned away. She didn’t want to look at them. Her gaze fixed squarely on Mi Nuo, and she asked angrily even though she knew why she was being summoned to this meeting, “This matter concerns the fashion design department. Why did Director Mi Nuo ask me to come for this meeting?”

After hearing what Zhuang Nainai had to say, Mi Nuo bit her lips. Mi Nuo stood up, but before she could speak, her assistant Li Li started to say with her head held high, “Our company’s fashion design drafts included five different styles this year. All of them were designed by TZ, and no other employee participated in the development.”

At this point, Li Li stopped talking and suddenly bit her lips. She lowered her head. “That day, Mi Nuo asked me to retrieve the design drafts from TZ’s office. However, I felt a sudden pain in my stomach on the way there. I chanced upon you at that moment and asked you to retrieve them on my behalf.”

After hearing what Li Li had to say, Zhuang Nainai suddenly recalled that what Li Li mentioned had indeed occurred two days ago.

There was nothing much to do at work and she felt bored. Furthermore, the doctor had also advised her to exercise. Thus, Zhuang Nainai had decided to walk around the corridors. That day, she saw Li Li anxiously cradling her stomach, and Li Li had entrusted Zhuang Nainai with the task of retrieving a document. Seeing how Li Li seemed as though she was unable to bear the pain, Zhuang Nainai had agreed without any hesitation.

But she had never thought that helping Li Li would cause her to be swept up in so much trouble.

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and felt strangely annoyed. She could not repress it no matter how hard she tried. Perhaps she had been too relaxed for a long time – she found herself losing her temper. She lifted her head and said resolutely, “So, are you suspecting that I stole the design drafts? Based on these groundless conjectures? If you really are suspicious of me, then you should just go ahead and sue me!”

The words spilled out of her mouth recklessly, and both Mi Nuo and Li Li did not react well to what she had said.

Mi Nuo hurriedly tried to ease the situation. “We’re not suspecting you, we’re merely recounting everything that has happened. Then Li Li realized that besides the higher-ranking members of management, you were the only other person who was in contact with the design drafts. Furthermore…”

She paused at this point and glanced at Si Zhengting and Ding Mengya. After a moment had passed, she lowered her head and said, “Furthermore, I was interested in purchasing a house in the past couple of days. I had shortlisted a particular house with three rooms but was later informed that someone had already bought the house. When I was about to leave the premises, I saw you walking in. Then, the intermediary told me that you bought that house and that you fully paid for it. Zhuang Nainai, I wanted to ask you — as a fresh graduate, and as a salaried employee with a salary of less than $10,000 a month, how did you get the money to buy the house? As far as I know, you are not well-off and led an impoverished lifestyle with your mother. You definitely lack the economic capability to buy a house.”
