This was too boring. Zhuang Nainai and Si Jingyu decided to go to work.
They could start designing the clothes for autumn. It would be ready to be released next January.
Once they arrived at the office, every member of staff was surprised by the size of Zhuang Nainai’s belly!
Everyone stared at her belly as she slowly walked into her own office. Then, everyone started talking at once!
“Nainai’s pregnant?”
“Who’s the father of the child?”
“Nainai’s married?”
“Oh my god!”
The exclamations from the employees caused a ruckus in the company.
The office’s internal QQ group was about to explode.
Everyone was fervently discussing who the father of Zhuang Nainai’s child was.
The discussion had not subsided even by lunchtime.
Zhang Tingting and a couple of employees from the fashion design department were having their lunch and discussing the parentage of the child at the same time. At that moment, Mi Nuo served herself some food and walked over. The conversation once again returned to the parentage of the child.
Someone asked Mi Nuo, “Director Mi, when did Zhuang Nainai get married? She looks so young!”
As Mi Nuo heard this, her grip on her chopsticks tightened.
She had been pranked out of the blue and been refused the recordings a while ago. She knew then that Zhuang Nainai had definitely been the person behind it.
She had put up with it for so long, but she hadn’t expected that Zhuang Nainai’s arrival in the office would immediately cause Mi Nuo to hear unpleasant things that she didn’t want to hear!
Whose child was it? Was she married?
Mi Nuo bit her lips. She responded a moment later, “How would I know? As she’s Zhuang Nainai, perhaps she isn’t married yet!”
After she said this, Zhang Tingting immediately spoke up, “Director Mi, Nainai isn’t such a person. I know you don’t like her, but you can’t…”
Before she could finish what she wanted to say, Mi Nuo’s expression hardened. “If you don’t believe me, you can come to my office and see her file! She’s indeed unmarried. Who knows who the father of her child is?”
Mi Nuo’s words quickly spread among the company’s employees like wildfire.
Furthermore, the news about Zhuang Nainai’s child had taken a life of its own and grew more and more ridiculous. In the end, the gossip that was circulating was that Zhuang Nainai was someone’s lover and had gotten pregnant as a result. She had to keep her pregnancy under wraps; thus, she had been hiding instead of going to work as usual.
There was an abundance of employees in the company who was jealous of Zhuang Nainai, especially in the departments other than the fashion design department. The employees in the venue design department started taking the gossip down a strange direction. As Su Mei heard them gossiping, she couldn’t help but exclaim, “What nonsense are you all spouting? Is she supposed to report to you all about her unmarried status? Also! There are so many people who get pregnant before they are married. What’s there to gossip about?!”
“Tsk tsk, think about it. In the past, Zhuang Nainai always left the office last. We’ve also never seen her on the bus or on the subway. Instead, she always headed for the carpark. She’s so poor, but why did she always go to the carpark?”
Although in the past, Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting seemed to be in an ambiguous relationship, they hadn’t been public since. Over time, the employees felt that there was nothing between them.
“I know!” Su Mei suddenly slapped the table, looking as though she had come to a sudden realization. Everyone looked over and she exclaimed, “The father of the child is definitely Executive Assistant Ji!”
“Is that possible?”
“How is that possible?!”
Su Mei replied confidently, “If you don’t believe me, let’s leave later tonight and catch them together!”
And Ji Chen, who was a couple of floors above arranging some documents, suddenly felt an itch in his nose. He sneezed twice in succession.
