“Also, you said that your USB flash drive had been spoiled. Don’t tell me that you didn’t have a back-up copy of your work? Even if you didn’t have a back-up, it should have been quite easy for you to redraw the designs, right? I suspect that you probably didn’t even have the inspiration — that’s why things ended up the way they did! For employees, such guesses are entirely valid!”
Mi Nuo was trembling with rage. “Zhuang Nainai, don’t go overboard! Show me the evidence if you dare to say that I didn’t even have the inspiration!”
“The proof? Simple.” Zhuang Nainai was never one to be bullied without retaliation. It had been easy to figure out the issue of the design drafts after the whole fiasco was over. She had fallen into Mi Nuo’s trap because she had been eager to prove her talent in designing, but did Mi Nuo really think that she would never seek revenge?
Zhuang Nainai curled her lips and stared at Mi Nuo. Her sudden mannerism pressured Mi Nuo.
Zhuang Nainai smiled. “The apparels for spring are due to be released soon, and the design drafts have to be out by the end of the month. Isn’t Director Mi professionally trained in fashion design? Isn’t Director Mi very familiar with design softwares? Isn’t Director Mi brimming with inspiration and ideas for great designs? I know that you’re busy, so I won’t ask for much. All I ask is for you to design a piece of clothing for the fashion design department, and all will be well. Okay?”
When she heard this, Mi Nuo’s eyes widened. Never in her wildest dreams did she think Zhuang Nainai would set a trap for her so easily like that!
If she was really that capable as she had made herself out to be, why would she have so ruthlessly set Zhuang Nainai up the previous time?!
Mi Nuo took a deep breath and gulped. “I…”
“Is Director Mi afraid of accepting the assignment? Or… was Tingting right in what she said, then?” Zhuang Nainai pushed Mi Nuo further.
A few moments ago, Mi Nuo had the upper hand. But now, the tables were turned.
If Mi Nuo were to disagree at this juncture, she would be displaying weakness. But if she were to agree…
Mi Nuo bit her lips and narrowed her eyes. “Fine!”
She still had a month ahead of her. What was there to be afraid of?!
Zhuang Nainai began laughing the moment she finished speaking. Zhuang Nainai patted Zhang Tingting’s shoulder and said, “Okay, now that Director Mi has agreed to our proposition, let’s go! We’ll come back in a month to discuss how we should end this matter, alright?”
With that, she strode out haughtily without any regard for Mi Nuo!
The surrounding employees looked at each other in silence, then lowered their heads in unison.
Everyone then quickly fled, but not before giving Mi Nuo gazes of suspicion that made her feel like crumbling!
When they had been against Zhuang Nainai, it had been satisfying, but now…
Mi Nuo bit her lips, an intense look crossing her eyes. Her eyes rested on Zhuang Nainai’s stomach as Zhuang Nainai made her way out.
It was said that… she was pregnant.
Pregnant…
At the thought of this, Mi Nuo felt as if her heart was being stabbed!
She reached out and pressed her chest. Getting up slowly, she narrowed her eyes, a hint of viciousness crossing her gaze.
She walked back to her office, then called Zuo Yiyi after pondering for a few moments. “Ms. Zuo, we’ve got a situation in the office, and I… thought I should let you know. Well, Mrs. Si is back at work, but it seems as though she had a fight with Mr. Si. Also, I thought I heard some mention of divorce…”
