It was the same as her design drafts?

What misunderstanding was there?

Si Zhengting suddenly felt that her words were really laughable.

He pressed his lips together and remained silent.

Zhuang Nainai had not realized that Si Zhengting was acting strangely. She furrowed her brows and studied the design drafts, then took out her phone and studied the design drafts that Gu Deshou had sent over.

Both sets of drafts were almost the same but differed slightly. It was obvious that the other set was definitely a plagiarized copy.

Her eyes widened in surprise.

The framework of the drafts was hers, but why were the Imperial Group’s design drafts, Si Jingyu’s design drafts, making use of Zhuang Nainai’s framework?

She raised her head and looked at Si Zhengting. “Si Zhengting, these are obviously my own designs! How come it’s the Imperial Group’s designs now?”

Zhuang Nainai placed the design drafts in front of Si Zhengting so that he could have a closer look at it.

However, Si Zhengting’s gaze was cold.

She had designed them?

So... this was her tactic.

She was going to say that the drafts were hers so that the Gu Corporation could deny that it had plagiarized the Imperial Group’s work?

If he hadn’t been absolutely sure that the T-shaped zipper was Si Jingyu’s trademark, if he hadn’t eavesdropped on Zhuang Nainai’s conversation with Gu Deshou over the phone, he would have, frighteningly, accepted her ridiculous explanation!

Just how stupid did she think he was to come up with such outrageous lies?

She was still blissfully unaware of Si Zhengting’s doubts. She nagged, “Just what is the matter? Why are the two design drafts the same? Si Zhengting, I’ve always given my own designs to the Gu Corporation so that they can manufacture their own apparel, you know that. But why is your sister’s designs the same as mine?”

“Yes, why are they the same?” Si Zhengting couldn’t help but reply.

Zhuang Nainai nodded. “This is too much of a coincidence.”

She really wanted to voice her suspicions — “Did Si Jingyu plagiarize my work?” — but after deliberating with herself for a while, she decided not to.

She had gotten along with Si Jingyu for a period of time and had a rough understanding of Si Jingyu’s character and temperament. She knew that Si Jingyu was not such a person.

So, where had the misunderstanding occurred?

Zhuang Nainai picked up the drafts again. “Si Zhengting, could it be that Sister handed over another set of design drafts to Mi Nuo instead of this one? And you have retrieved the wrong copy?”

“She is probably the only person who knows for sure.”

Zhuang Nainai sighed. “Yeah, if Sister were here, we’d only have to ask to ascertain what had truly happened. However, if this set of design drafts really is the Imperial Group’s, I’m afraid that there’s a misunderstanding here.”

After she finished speaking, she didn’t wait for Si Zhengting’s reply before hurriedly adding, “I’m not saying that Sister plagiarized my work. Sister isn’t the sort of person who would do that. I’m just saying that there has been some misunderstanding that we didn’t notice or something for things to have turned out this way...”

Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes. “This is also a matter that only she would know for sure.”

Zhuang Nainai immediately lowered her head. “Yes, it’s such a pity that we can’t contact Sister right now. It would be great if we could.”

So, this was her strategy.

Si Zhengting felt that the woman before him was unfathomable.

He thought that she was pure and kind, just as she was in the past. However, now he realized that...

The corners of his lips twitched. “So?”

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips. “So it is unclear what has truly happened. However, the Imperial Group should first withdraw its lawsuit against the Gu Corporation. The Gu Corporation has not committed plagiarism. We’ll resolve the misunderstanding once Sister is back.”

After she finished speaking, she was worried that Si Zhengting would be uncomfortable with what she had seemed to suggest. “I’m not saying that Sister had definitely plagiarized my work. I won’t lodge a complaint against Sister either.”

“Then?”
