Chapter 368 - Si Zhengting, Let’s Get a Divorce (8)
Zhuang Nainai had just painstakingly made her way up. Without any time to catch her breath, she heard what Si Zhengting said, stunning her.
The attention of the crowd in the room was drawn to the door. Spotting Zhuang Nainai, Li Li shouted, “That’s her, Zhuang Nainai! She’s the one who spoiled my USB flash drive, and she’s also the one who stole the design drafts of the Imperial Group and passed them to the Gu Corporation!”
At this point, Si Guangsong recovered himself and stood up. “Si Zhengting, since things have come to a point like this, and since she’s already here, just let her in!”
Si Zhengting furrowed his brows. He never expected that things would turn out this way.
But who had let her come up?! Didn’t he or she know how complicated things were up here?!
Just as Si Zhengting was thinking this, Zhuang Nainai walked past him and strode right into the conference room.
Even though Si Zhengting did not believe her, he would still protect her in front of the others; this was something she was sure of.
Just like how moments before, Si Zhengting had resolutely played the issue down.
But she didn’t want it like that.
She didn’t steal the design drafts — she didn’t do anything! On what basis was she to be accused, to make Si Zhengting be in a state like this, to make the board of directors unhappy with her?
Si Guangsong stared at Zhuang Nainai. “Is this the girl? She does look quite bright, but Si Zhengting, the company is the company. You can’t just cover for her after all that she’s done — stealing our design drafts and passing them to the Gu Corporation, then destroying the design drafts we’re about to use!”
Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes. Before he could say anything, Zhuang Nainai cut in. “I didn’t steal the design drafts! They were mine in the first place.”
Si Guangsong burst out into laughter. “Oh dear me, are you trying to say that our great designer TZ plagiarized you?”
He surveyed Zhuang Nainai up and down. “What kind of reputation do you even have in the design industry? What works do you have to show?”
Zhuang Nainai became a little awkward, but she straightened her back. “None.”
“None? If you have none, why would TZ plagiarize you? Are you just trying to pull our leg?”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were clear. “I have evidence to prove my innocence!”
The whole room fell silent at this statement.
Even Si Zhengting, who was standing at the doorway, was stunned. He looked at her, confused.
Si Guangsong came around and his expression turned serious. “What proof do you have? Young lady, don’t try to play any tricks in front of so many of us.”
Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath and looked toward Li Li. “Didn’t you say that I destroyed your design drafts? Why not let me make up for that by producing another one for the company?”
Li Li was perplexed. “Where are you going to find another set of design drafts of the same quality?”
As she spoke, she suddenly realized what Zhuang Nainai meant. “You mean… you’re going to draw them by yourself?”
She felt the incredulity in her words and began to find it funny.
Si Guangsong couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhuang Nainai, on the other hand, was serious. “I’ve said it before that the design drafts I gave to the Gu Corporation were from me. But I didn’t steal them — I drew them myself! If I’m able to produce a set of design drafts of equal quality, won’t that show that I have the ability to design? If yes, that’ll prove that I had no reason to steal the Imperial Group’s drafts!”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were shining as she stared at all the people in front of her.
This was the solution she had thought of when she had been running up.
Everyone was saying that she had stolen the design drafts only because they were unconvinced that she was the owner of the drafts..
