As soon as she said that, everyone looked at Mi Nuo in unison.
Yes, Si is a rare last name. Furthermore, that design draft is so small and difficult to interpret, but Zhuang Nainai actually knows that there is a word in it through an enlargement… That means…
They looked at Mi Nuo in unison. Could it be that Mi Nuo really stole the design?
Just as everyone was making their guesses, Mi Nuo bit her lips, her cheeks flushed. Thereafter, she stood up suddenly. “Gu Qingyan, since you are putting it this way… I need to explain myself as well.”
As she said this, she raised her head. “I have been hiding some things because I think that it wouldn’t be nice if I said it out. But I did not expect you to use this against me. I…”
Upon saying this, she bit her lip again as tears welled up in her eyes. She looked like a fragile and vulnerable woman who had been pushed to her limits. Taking in a deep breath, she said, “I know what I am going to say would invite many criticisms, but… love does not discriminate. Of course this ‘Si’ does not refer to my boyfriend. Actually, when I was in high school, I didn’t even have time to keep up with my studies, so how was it possible for me to have a boyfriend?”
Upon saying this, she closed her eyes. Tears started to stream down her cheeks slowly. Then, she bit her lips. “I was born into a poor family. I could only afford to go to school because of the charity’s sponsorship. I am an orphan. How could I have found time to date in high school? Still, which girl wouldn’t fantasize about her first love?”
Upon saying this, she clenched her fists and looked over at Si Zhengting. “Actually, Mr. Si doesn’t know that I have seen him once before I went to college. At that time, I developed feelings for him. Afterward, I tried my best to learn design in hopes of getting a job in the Imperial Group, so that I can be closer to Mr. Si. Yes, I lied about the concept of this design. It isn’t about the memento from my first love. This is the memento of love that I had imagined. That’s why there is a ‘Si’ in it.
“For Mr. Si, I have been trying my best to climb up the ladder. Before I even graduated from college, I joined the Imperial Group. It has been three years since I started to watch over you secretly. I know that I am not good enough for you. I have never expected much either. I just hope that I can be closer to you, just a little bit more…”
As Mi Nuo said this, she lowered her head and her shoulders jerked slightly. “But I didn’t think that I would still offend Mrs. Si… Mr. Si, I don’t mean to go against you. I also didn’t mean to expose Mrs. Si’s scandals. It’s just that the Imperial Group’s actions have seriously hurt me…”
Several female reporters, who were more emotional, let out a deep sigh after hearing her inspirational speech.
Her speech had been uploaded online in real-time as quickly as possible. Upon hearing this speech, everyone’s fond memories of their respective one-sided love came rushing back. They could relate to her, so many words of encouragement for her started flooding in promptly.
“What the f*ck! This woman said that Nainai was trying to appeal to the public’s emotions just now. Who’d have thought that she would go against her own words so quickly?! She’s so shameless to have actually made up a beautiful one-sided love story.”
In the Si residence, Madam Ding Mengya was instantly infuriated upon seeing this scene through the laptop.
Beside her, the butler shook his head. “It was wrong of Mrs. Si to expose the ‘Si’ in the design. It created an opportunity for Ms. Mi.”
Suddenly, Ding Mengya looked over at the butler with a fierce gaze. She sounded even more fierce. “How could Nainai have thought that she would be so shameless? And this girl is really quick on her feet. She can even make up such a story…”
