Zhuang Nai Nai returns to the 18th floor in anger.
When lunch comes, she does not go upstairs to eat with Si Zheng Ting.
When Ji Chen sends her a message, she replies it with, ‘Assistant Ji, I am still a suspect regarding the drafts theft. What if I go upstairs and Mr. Si loses a document, will he blame it on me?
Ji Chen does not know whether to laugh or to cry when he reads that.
And so, at 12:10, a special lunch box is sent to her.
When Su Mei sees that, she pats Zhuang Nai Nai in the arm, “Little miss, you sure are spending your salary frivolously. Your one meal is equivalent to one month worth of mine.”
Zhuang Nai Nai: ………………
At 6pm,
Zhuang Nai Nai purposely goes to the parking lot, stretching her neck to look at Si Zheng Ting’s private elevator. When she sees him coming, she turns around and stomps loudly away, purposely drawing his attention.
Si Zheng Ting wants to laugh seeing her so haughty. He walks towards her and grabs her by the wrist.
Zhuang Nai Nai turns around exagerratingly, “Aiya, isn’t this the honourable President. Si? Is there anything I can help you with?”
Si Zheng Ting purses his lips, playing along with her, “Let’s go home together.”
Zhuang Nai Nai shrugs his hand off, “No way! I am a thief, remember? How could you lower yourself as to share a car with me?”
Her tone…. She is still angry.
Si Zheng Ting raises his eyebrows as he looks at her. She is small in stature, but her temper certainly isn’t.
Without saying a single word, he swoops down and lifts her up bridal style before carrying her to the car.
Zhuang Nai Nai: …………….
Alright. Fine. Even she does not know why she keeps throwing temper tantrum over everything these days. By doing all this, Si Zheng Ting is basically saying that he trusts her. What is there to feel aggrieved over?
Despite thinking so, Zhuang Nai Nai maintains a resentful silence throughout the journey.
She jumps out of the car the moment the car stops. The housekeeper who greets her by the door did not manage to say what he wanted to say and can only trail after her from behind. “Madam!”
Before the housekeeper even finishes speaking, Zhuang Nai Nai hears a fierce voice addressing her, “Gu Qing Yan!”
She turns around and finds a swollen-eyed Gu Xing Shan rushing towards her, “Gu Qing Yan, dad hasn’t come home for three days now! Mom cries everyday! Our family is ruined, are you happy now?!”
Originally in a bad mood over being accused of stealing the drafts, Zhuang Nai Nai’s temper rises, “What does it has anything to do with me if your father won’t come home?”
Gu Xing Shan smirks, “Right! They are my father and mother, you have never considered them as your family members. Only Zhuang Meiting, the mistress, is your family. You are willing to betray your own husband for her, is there anything you wouldn’t do for her? Isn’t she the only person you considered important in your life?”
Si Zheng Ting who has chased Zhuang Nai Nai into the house hears everything that Gu Xing Shan says.
He stops in his steps as his eyes narrow dangerously.
