Zhao Ming shook his head as he heard Si Zhengting’s question.
Si Zhengting turned around to look at Zhuang Nainai, then suddenly took her wallet out from her bag. Passing a photo of Mother Zhuang to Zhao Ming, he asked, “Then does Teacher Zhao recognize this person?”
Zhao Ming narrowed his farsighted eyes. After scrutinizing the picture for a few moments, he finally gave a shake of his head.
Si Zhengting instantly furrowed his brows as Zhao Ming smiled and said, “She’s not that pretty, and she doesn’t have the same sort of air and disposition.”
A person’s appearance might change over the decades, but the disposition and air… that was something unchangeable.
Zhao Ming smiled once more. “Also, Alan is probably five or six years older than that person.”
In that case, it seemed like Mother Zhuang wasn’t Alan.
Then, was this “Alan” just a product of Teacher Zhao Ming’s imagination?
Si Zhengting looked at Zhuang Nainai. A person’s drawing style was bound to be affected by one’s teacher. He lowered his head and decided that, upon going back, he would get Ji Chen to check up on who this “Alan” really was.
After saying goodbye to Teacher Zhao Ming, Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting walked to the underground car park together. On their way there, Si Zhengting received a call from Ji Chen.
“Mr. Si, there has been some progress with the plagiarism issue.”
Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes. “What is it?”
“The other party has said that, as long as Madam leaves the Imperial Group, he or she won’t divulge Madam’s past of plagiarizing works.” Ji Chen sighed. “Sir, I really can’t seem to think of nor find anything that Madam has plagiarized.”
Even the school incident had been suppressed by Teacher Zhao Ming, and Zhuang Nainai’s file had no issue regarding any plagiarism. As such, it was only natural that Ji Chen was unable to find anything out.
But…
Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes once more. “Don’t bother checking. I know what’s up already.”
With that, he continued, “Get someone to monitor Mi Nuo.”
“Yes.”
After he put down the phone, a fierce glint entered Si Zhengting’s eyes. Finally, someone was showing her true colors.
That time, he had already known that Mi Nuo was the one who had plagiarized TZ’s work and sabotaged Zhuang Nainai, but he had remained silent and refused to deal with her. He wanted to see what it was exactly that she wanted.
Now, he felt that he was inching closer and closer to the truth.
—
Mi Nuo sat in front of her computer in an Internet bar, staring blankly at the chat window in front of her.
She was unable to hold herself back any further — she had to get Zhuang Nainai out of the company!
Because… she had this irresistible urge to rush forward and beat the baby out of Zhuang Nainai’s stomach every single time she saw her!
Even though rationality told her that she had to keep the child, she was really unable to control herself.
Just as she finished what she had to do, her phone rang. Lowering her head, she realized it was Li Yufeng using her other number to call her.
Answering the call, she curled her lips. “Hello.”
“Have you been doing anything silly recently? Nuonuo, let me tell you, you have to keep calm!”
Hearing this, Mi Nuo gave a cold grunt of assent without being too bothered.
Li Yufeng got anxious. “Nuonuo, I’ve told you before that I should be the one to do things, not you! Don’t expose yourself!”
Mi Nuo gave a cold laugh. “Why are you so anxious? If I get exposed, so what?”
“Nuonuo! Where are you right now? I’ll come over.”
“No need.” Mi Nuo stared at the computer and waited for Ji Chen to reply to her.
“Nuonuo, what’s up with you?” Speaking all this while, Li Yufeng was perplexed. “All the things that Mother owes you in this life… Mother will help you get what you want!”
