At this point, Mi Nuo started to drop strong hints, “Furthermore, I’ve handed over the clothes meant for Mr . Si’s female companion to him, but Mr . Si hasn’t given them to Mrs . Si yet . Also… I tactfully asked if the measurements can be altered so that they’d fit yours . He actually agreed to that . Do you think that… you’ll be Mr . Si’s female companion tonight?”
At the Imperial Group’s office on the top floor…
Ji Chen stood before Si Zhengting respectfully . He watched as Si Zhengting held the USB flash drive, the latter’s head lowered as he studied it for a long while .
Ji Chen’s heart was racing . He was really curious . What would Madam’s design drafts look like?
But after Si Zhengting studied the USB flash drive for a while, he put it aside .
So what if her design drafts were perfect?
Si Guangsong would not let her off .
Si Zhengting lowered his eyes, asking coldly, “How are matters going with Si Guangsong?”
Ji Chen lowered his voice . “Sir, everything is under control . ”
Si Zhengting nodded, then asked, “Has the dress been sent over?”
Ji Chen was stunned . Then, he suddenly understood what Si Zhengting was talking about and hurriedly replied, “I’ll do it now . ”
Once Ji Chen left the office, Si Zhengting was in contemplation for a moment in the office, his gaze fixed on the design drafts . Then, he picked up his cell phone and called Shi Jinyan .
Shi Jinyan quickly picked up . Si Zhengting could hear the buzzing of the helicopter in the background, and his heartbeat quickened . “Have you found them?”
Shi Jinyan replied, “I’ve received their signal requesting for help . The helicopter’s rushing over now . There shouldn’t be any mistakes this time . It should arrive after four hours . ”
After he heard this, Si Zhengting could finally breathe freely .
He let out a sigh of relief . Shi Jinyan continued, “Zhengting, once I meet her, I’ll force her to return . It’s… too dangerous outside . ”
Although his words seemed inconclusive, his tone made it clear that he had no doubt that it was dangerous .
Shi Jinyan was from a humble background in the country and had wedded a lady from the city . He was also a righteous man who was capable and skilled . He would never feel insecure in front of Si Zhengting just because of his humble beginnings .
He had relied on his own hard work to get to where he was today — opening his own company .
Si Zhengting appreciated this person . He blinked, then murmured an agreement .
Si Zhengting had never used to keep tabs on Si Jingyu, as he thought that she could protect herself no matter where she was . However, this matter had scared Si Zhengting . Every time he thought about it, he would feel scared .
Zhuang Nainai lowered her head as she walked .
She wasn’t a detective . So it was difficult for her to look for proof to prove her own innocence .
But she wasn’t going to leave . She would make a gamble instead… She was gambling on how she still meant something to him . She was gambling on the relationship that they had had five years ago, which caused him to still have some feelings for her in this marriage .
Zhuang Nainai stopped in her tracks .
She knew that she shouldn’t be so willful for Mother Zhuang’s sake . However, she really wanted to be willful, just this once .
For the five years of her youth, for the love and the marriage that she was about to lose, she wanted to be willful just this once .
Zhuang Nainai hardened her resolve and continued taking a step forward, one at a time .
Zhuang Nainai returned to her work station and saw Ji Chen holding a dress whilst walking over .
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes lit up suddenly .
Before the matter regarding the design drafts had blown up, Zhuang Nainai’s relationship with Zhang Tingting of the fashion design department was reasonably good . Thus, Zhang Tingting had once shown her Si Zhengting’s female companion’s dress for the night of the event .
