Carefully pulling down the car roof, Su Yanbin then drove the car toward the city area, feeling conflicted.
Leader Si had handed her over to him. Handed her over!
But how was he to deal with such a liability?
Should he drive her to his own villa? That wasn’t very appropriate.
But she couldn’t possibly stay in empty villas!
Or maybe he should send her to a hotel?
Reclining in her seat and sipping her soybean milk, Zhuang Nainai’s gaze was fixed on the scenery outside. “Why did you come?”
Su Yanbin thought of telling her that it had been Leader Si who had sent him over, but he thought twice as he recalled Si Zhengting’s orders. “Oh, I suddenly felt like eating the sour spicy noodles near the school, so I dropped by.”
Zhuang Nainai grunted, then asked, “So did you get to eat it?”
“Of course I did! And it’s still the same as it was.”
Zhuang Nainai rolled her eyes. “But the sour spicy noodles are only available at night, so how did you get them early in the morning, may I ask?”
Su Yanbin was flabbergasted.
He should have known that everything he spoke to Zhuang Nainai about was a trap!
She had always had her way with words with other people, with her sharp words and quick reflexes perplexing them. It was only with Si Zhengting that she became gentle, going head over heels for him.
Su Yanbin swore in his heart to never speak to her again. If he were to walk into a trap again, he would write his surname backward!
Right after swearing, Zhuang Nainai’s voice rang out behind him. “Send me to the Gu residence.”
Su Yanbin was stunned. “Why? Why do you want to go to the Gu residence?”
Pressing her lips together, Zhuang Nainai replied, “Why are you asking so much? If I tell you to go, then go!”
Su Yanbin was flabbergasted.
Full of anger inside, Su Yanbin changed direction, but not long after doing so, Zhuang Nainai shouted once more. “Stop the car!”
Su Yanbin cursed inwardly.
He found a spot to park the car in, then turned his head to face Zhuang Nainai. “My dear mistress, didn’t you say you wanted to go to the Gu residence? Why are you asking me to stop the car?!”
Without saying a word, Zhuang Nainai hopped off the car and entered a nearby clothing shop.
Stunned, Su Yanbin locked the car and followed her. Just as he entered, he saw that Zhuang Nainai had already changed into a new set of clothes and was now pointing at him while telling the attendant, “He’ll make the payment for me, thank you.”
Su Yanbin was speechless.
So, could he claim the cost of the clothes from Si Zhengting later on?!
After getting back into the car, Zhuang Nainai’s thoughts flew around her head as she settled herself into the backseat once more.
It was one thing to want to leave and another to leave with all the suspicions and accusations pinned on her. That was not the way she did things. She was determined to go to the Gus and get everything cleared up!
After putting together the whole incident of the design drafts, and after careful consideration, Zhuang Nainai had come to a conclusion.
No matter the reason for Si Jingyu’s design drafts being the same as hers, the changes to the details in the design were definitely made by Si Jingyu.
So the design drafts that the Gus had sent over to the garment factory were drafts that Si Jingyu had already edited. Someone was framing her.
Who could this person be?
Thinking to herself the whole way, she ruled out Gu Deshou, because there was nothing for the Gu Corporation to gain from something like that. Si Jingyu had only made minor adjustments to the designs, adding embellishments, and there was also no way that Li Yufeng would frame her.
And the only one whom she had a conflict of interest with was… Gu Xingshan…
Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists. It was Gu Xingshan! It had to be!
Having thought this, a wave of anger surged in her heart. She couldn’t wait to tear apart Gu Xingshan’s face.
