  It was only then that she reluctantly put down her phone, picked up her files, and followed Zhang Tingting out of her office.

  Even though she was already five months pregnant, Zhuang Nainai was still rather nimble and active and her steps were steady. Zhang Tingting had always been at ease around Zhuang Nainai, but now that she knew that Zhuang Nainai was pregnant with either an heir or an heiress, she was now obligated to hold Zhuang Nainai as she walked.

  “I’m alright, you don’t have to be this anxious.” Zhuang Nainai laughed upon seeing Zhang Tingting’s flushed demeanor.

  Zhang Tingting immediately replied, “You can’t let down your guard. You have to be careful with this child, come, here……”


  Zhuang Nainai was speechless.

  As Zhuang Nainai walked toward the conference room, she noticed how everyone in the company seemed to be looking at her differently. There was a sense of respect in their eyes now.

  By the time Zhuang Nainai entered the conference room, she realized that everyone was already there except for her. Checking the time and realizing that she was punctual on the dot, she heaved a sigh of relief. Yet, she still apologized, “I’m sorry for being late.”


  A few moments ago, when the door to the conference room had opened, all the employees in the room had stood up to greet Zhuang Nainai as she made her entrance. Zhuang Nainai was not used to such a formal and high-level reception.

  Zhuang Nainai smiled awkwardly and walked forward. After realizing that Mi Nuo was also present, she saw that Mi Nuo’s expression was relatively calm, but hidden under her sleeves were balled-up fists!

  As Mi Nuo thought this, she couldn’t resist lowering her gaze. A few moments later, she said, “Zhuang Nainai, this is the company, not your home. You let everyone wait for you. Do you feel that our time is not valuable? Or are you just belittling us?”


  Zhuang Nainai hadn’t even plopped her butt down on her seat and Mi Nuo was already itching for a fight. Hearing Mi Nuo’s words, she raised her brows and decided to remain standing. Lowering her head to look at her watch, she replied, “Director Mi, if your watch is off, I don’t mind correcting you. It’s exactly two in the afternoon, and it’s also the exact stipulated time for our meeting. You’re right that everyone’s time is precious, and so being punctual is doubtlessly a virtue.”


  Mi Nuo huffed and furrowed her brows. “So why aren’t you getting into the meeting? Why are you being so long-winded?”


  What?

  This person was really trying to stir trouble, huh?

  Zhuang Nainai curled her lips and smiled. She said, “I’m waiting for Director Mi to start speaking!”


  “Me?” Mi Nuo was stunned.

  Zhuang Nainai pressed on, smiling. “Yes, of course! Wasn’t it agreed upon that the spring designs would be done by you? It’s been a month already. Is Director Mi ready?”


  Just as Mi Nuo was about to reply, Zhuang Nainai continued speaking and made sure she couldn’t get a word in. “Why, don’t tell me you haven’t finished the designs, and don’t tell me you’ve been busy either! I just checked your schedule for the past month, and Director Mi seems to have been very free. I’m sure you must be done with the designs, because after all, you were the one who made me come up with six designs in a few days!”


  Now that Zhuang Nainai had brought this up, the excuse that Mi Nuo had prepared was no longer usable.

  Mi Nuo stared at Zhuang Nainai, then curled her lips into a smile. “Don’t worry. All the apparel that you asked me to design has been completed.”
