  Si Zhengting was furious. He had spotted the reporters making life hard for Zhuang Nainai the moment he had entered the venue, and her thin figure seemed ready to fall under the pressure.

  Her usual sharpness had given way for frailty, which stabbed at his heart. Without thinking, he had dashed toward her.

  Violently pushing the reporters aside, he’d grabbed her and pulled her tightly into his embrace!

  Her shaking body tore at his heart and made him suffer; how he wished he could rip apart the people in front of him who were bullying her!

  In those moments, his self-restraint had left him.

  His sudden outburst of anger took everyone in the venue by surprise. Staring at the two of them, the reporters froze, jittery.

  Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes and shielded Zhuang Nainai as they walked away from the reporters. Just as he passed the reporter from Su Er Newspaper Agency, Si Zhengting shot her a long, meaningful look.

  The look sent chills down her spine. She immediately knew what it meant: she was finished!

  Mr. Si from the Imperial Group was going to come after her.

  As she thought of this, she clenched her teeth and decided to go all out!

  She shouted, “Mr. Si, why are you not willing to tell us the truth about the design drafts? Is it because there’s something going on behind the scenes? Are our guesses about TZ being the one who plagiarized Ms. Zhuang correct? Was it the Imperial Group that forcefully took away the design drafts of the Gu Corporation and made them their own?”


  The whole venue fell silent, with everyone curiously looking toward Si Zhengting and eagerly waiting for an answer.

  Si Zhengting halted in his footsteps. Pausing for a moment, seemingly thinking about something, he then turned around and met the reporter’s eyes with a cold, steely gaze.

  The reporter continued, “Mr. Si, was it TZ who plagiarized Ms. Zhuang?”


  As Si Zhengting heard this, he knew he had to give them an answer. If he refused, they would surely take her statement as truth and publish it in the papers the following day!

  Narrowing his eyes, he drew away his hand that had been pressing Zhuang Nainai’s head down low.

  Zhuang Nainai lifted her head and clenched her fists, staring at him.

  How was Si Zhengting going to answer?

  At this point in time, surely he had to safeguard the interests of the Imperial Group.

  Just as she was struggling with herself, she heard Si Zhengting slowly saying, “No.”


  It wasn’t TZ who had plagiarized Zhuang Nainai?

  That meant……

  Zhuang Nainai’s heart grew cold instantly.

  No matter how much she trusted him, no matter the shred of hope she still had for them both…… now that the moment of his betrayal finally came, she felt a bone-chilling coldness spreading throughout her body, a ruthless pain beyond compare that was taking root.

  Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists, her heart in utter despair.

  Seeing the situation, the reporter continued her attack. “That means that Ms. Zhuang plagiarized TZ! Since this is the case, Mr. Si, why haven’t you punished her? Is it because Ms. Zhuang is your lover? Mr. Si, could you kindly explain yourself to us?”


  Hearing this, Si Zhengting was momentarily stunned.

  The issue with the design drafts had been going on for quite a while, and at this point…… he wasn’t so sure anymore.

  TZ would never plagiarize Zhuang Nainai, so…… did Zhuang Nainai really plagiarize TZ, or had she been framed?

  Shi Jinyan had just sent him a message about them having tracked down Si Jingyu’s location; just five more minutes, and Si Jingyu would be able to speak for herself and make the truth known to all.
