Everyone was stunned.
With eyes wide open, all of them looked at Mi Nuo, who was already in a daze in disbelief. Her mouth opened and closed multiple times, but she could not say anything.
She looked at Zhuang Nainai in disbelief. She had never expected Zhuang Nainai to pull this trick on her!
Just when she thought she could win for sure, the tables suddenly turned so drastically!
As she clenched her fists tightly, Zhuang Nainai looked at her with a smile on her face. The anxiety and uneasiness in her voice just now had completely disappeared. “Director Mi, may I know if the word ‘Si’ refers to Si Zhengting?”
She had asked the same question just now and her answer was “yes.”
However, right now, this question felt like a merciless slap across her face in front of the entire country’s audience!
Mi Nuo could only feel her cheeks stinging as they were burning red. She wished she could dig a hole to hide herself in.
Her gaze was oddly perplexing with a tinge of ghastly sinisterness. She racked her brains before speaking again. “T-There is a ‘Si’ inside my own design, but I forgot that the design I handed in was the one without the ‘Si’!”
However, after she said this, the reaction from the audience was no longer the same as just now. All the reporters’ gaze was fixed on her. Such a blatant lie just sounded ridiculous right now.
At that moment, the reporters suddenly realized that they had been fooled by her ridiculous lies just now! They had actually believed her!
All the reporters’ faces turned slightly red as they felt that this slap from Zhuang Nainai not only landed on Mi Nuo’s face but also just so happened to hit theirs viciously!
After two minutes of silence, the comments started flooding in online.
“What the f*ck! I actually got fooled by this hypocrite! Sl*t!”
“Disgusting. I didn’t expect the truth to be this. This woman must be really desperate for fame!”
“How can this crazy dog go around biting people recklessly? We almost misunderstood Mrs. Si because of her!”
“Mrs. Si is really impressive! She got the sl*t!”
…
The online comments were really aggressive. While Ji Chen was scrolling through the comments with excitement and agitation, he looked at Zhuang Nainai, who was on the stage, admiringly. Even he was fooled by Zhuang Nainai’s nervous act on stage today!
He didn’t expect Madam to be so capable!
However, Ji Chen felt a chill run down his spine as he was watching her. Huh? Would Madam punish him if she found out that he complained to Mr. Si about her just now?

Ding Mengya and Butler Li, who were sitting in front of the laptop, were also astonished by the sudden counterattack. Ding Mengya regained her senses first. “I didn’t expect… Madam to be so smart!”
Butler Li immediately nodded and answered, “You said that Madam resembled her just now. But, look, how are the two of them even similar?”

In the conference hall.
Just as everyone was still in a state of shock and unable to snap out of their trance, Si Zhengting, who had remained silent throughout the entire press conference, suddenly stood up.
Like the most respectable person on earth, he walked up to the stage elegantly with his extravagant figure. At last, he stood beside Zhuang Nainai and put his arm around her shoulders. As he narrowed his sharp eyes, he looked down at everyone below. He bent down and said over the microphone, which Zhuang Nainai had used just now, in a very clear yet imposing voice, “My wife will be suing Mi Nuo for defamation of character. The Imperial Group will also be looking into Mi Nuo’s criminal responsibility.”
