  The moment Zhuang Nainai heard the word “abscond,” her heart began to feel as if it was bleeding.

  Here was the truth! He had never trusted her!

  Clenching her fists tightly, she felt the bone-crushing force he exerted on her shoulders. But she remained silent and stared at him, all her anger and misgivings crystallizing into one sentence. “Si Zhengting, let’s get a divorce.”


  Let’s get a divorce.

  She finally said it.

  Si Zhengting felt as if all his strength had been sucked away.

  She was not even consulting him — she had already made that choice by herself. If not, how could she have begun to apply for her passport and think of getting air tickets?

  He let go of her slowly and stepped backward, his lips curling. “Zhuang Nainai, I’ve said this before. In this marriage, I’m the only one who has to right to call it quits!”


  Upon saying this, he immediately dashed out of the office without even taking his jacket with him.

  Si Zhengting was walking at breakneck speed as if he was afraid of Zhuang Nainai catching up with him.

  He got into his car, quickly switched on his engines, and zoomed out of the building.

  Nighttime in Beijing was never lonely.

  There were always cars, people, and bright lights.

  Yet Si Zhengting felt a boundless sense of loneliness as he drove along the road.

  As long as he held on, she was never going to be able to leave!

  Without knowing how long he had driven for, nor where he was, Si Zhengting finally stopped the car by the roadside and took out his cell phone, which had been buzzing incessantly.

  The moment he picked up the phone, Ji Chen’s voice came on. “Sir, the matter’s been blown up! I’ve just sent the news report to your email!”


  Si Zhengting furrowed his brows. Opening his mailbox, he saw a news article with the title “Who Exactly Plagiarized Who?” staring at him.

  The content went: “As our reporter understands, the design drafts for both the Imperial Group and the Gu Corporation are identical for this year. The Gu Corporation claims that their design drafts were bought over from Zhuang Nainai, an employee of the Imperial Group. The Imperial Group, on the other hand, has not only withdrawn their lawsuit against the Gu Corporation, they have also yet to deal with Zhuang Nainai. In the face of this, our editor is beginning to suspect, was Zhuang Nainai the one who plagiarized TZ or was it TZ who plagiarized Zhuang Nainai? Could a great company like the Imperial Group actually be guilty of plagiarizing the work of their own employee?”


  Upon reading this, rationality returned to Si Zhengting as his emotions took a backseat.

  Furrowing his brows, he told Ji Chen, “The news has just gotten out. Suppress it.”


  Ji Chen’s voice was urgent. “But Sir, Old Mr. Si saw the news just now and has just sued Madam in the company’s name. Just a moment ago, Madam was taken away by the police! I’m trying to bail her out right now, but the lawyer says that Madam’s case isn’t looking too good. If there isn’t any evidence to prove her innocence, I’m afraid that Madam will be sentenced.”


  “Then find the evidence.” Si Zhengting’s voice was very low. He paused for a moment before continuing, “There has to be evidence.”


  Ji Chen sighed. “Sir, the judiciary system has already intervened in the investigation. Even if we were to fabricate evidence, I’m afraid that it’ll be difficult.”


  Si Zhengting’s heart rose for a moment. Just as he was about to reply, another call came in. “Hang on, Ji Chen.”


  He picked up the other call.

  As the call connected, Si Jingyu’s voice came over!

  Even though they were half a world away, and her voice was empty and distant, she still gave Si Zhengting a sliver of hope. “Zhengthing, I saw the news about Nainai plagiarizing my design drafts. In actual fact……”.
