After Zhuang Nainai heard what Gu Xinghao had to say, she halted her footsteps.
Behind her, before Gu Xinghao’s hands had landed on Zhuang Nainai’s shoulders, a large hand had reached over and grabbed his wrist. Another hand twisted it. Gu Xinghao cried out in pain immediately.
Zhuang Nainai turned around and saw Su Yanbin standing there, laughing sarcastically as he stared at Gu Xinghao.
Where did this young brat come from? How dare he lay his hands on you in such a place!

After he said that, Su Yanbin pushed him out of the house.
Get lost!

Gu Xinghao was forcibly pushed out the door, and he landed outside unceremoniously on his behind. He was in such pain that his entire face was pale. He swung his hand about as he glanced toward the room. He gritted his teeth as he said,
Gu Qingyan, don’t push it too far! Xingshan’s your sister, after all, but she’s been locked up in the house by Father and Mother now. She’s been crying every day. How can you sleep at night when you’ve dragged her name through mud?! Don’t you feel bad about what you’ve done?



Su Yanbin took a step forward and kicked him.
You’re still harping on it?

Gu Xinghao shut his mouth abruptly and waved his hands about, then attempted to hide.
Zhuang Nainai didn’t care about what Gu Xinghao had to say. She trotted to the door and held Su Yanbin back, then glanced at Gu Xinghao in shock.
You said that Xingshan was in Hainan with you last week?

After she said that, Gu Xinghao suddenly looked guilty. His gaze was evasive as he comically attempted to get up on his feet. He pursed his lips as he said,
I let that slip by mistake, don’t let Father know about it. We had gone to Hainan secretly to have fun. The air there is really great!

Gu Xinghao was not a person who had ill-intentions. And at the moment, he didn’t look like he was lying either.
Zhuang Nainai furrowed her brows.
Do you have any proof that shows that both of you were in Hainan?

Gu Xinghao whipped out his phone,
Here, here’s a picture that we took in Hainan! I had agreed to go there on a trip with my friends, but Gu Xingshan had overheard our plans. She threatened to tell Father about my plans if I didn’t bring her along. Thus, I had no choice but to bring her along! In fact, we were there for a few days!

Indeed, both Gu Xingshan and Gu Xinghao were in the picture.
Zhuang Nainai was so shocked that she was frozen on the spot. Suddenly, she thought about what Gu Xingshan had been saying all along.
Gu Xingshan had said repeatedly and confidently that Zhuang Nainai was the person who had stolen the Imperial Group’s drafts. Then, Gu Xingshan had stared at Li Yufeng in disbelief when Li Yufeng suspected the former. Gu Xingshan had denied stealing the drafts and asked why Li Yufeng didn’t believe her…


Although Gu Xingshan had been trying hard to portray herself as an innocent and pure person, she was still of a young age and didn’t put in much effort or thought into her portrayal. Zhuang Nainai was thus able to figure out Gu Xingshan’s motives just by listening to her speak for a little while. However, Gu Xingshan had not admitted to stealing the drafts all along.
Furthermore, the design drafts were handed over to the manufacturing company five days ago. However, Gu Xingshan wasn’t even in Beijing five days ago!
Didn’t this mean that the person who had swapped and stolen the design drafts wasn’t her?!
This thought was ricocheting off the walls of her mind, the disorderliness throwing her off a little.
She once again felt the strange feeling of being caught in a large net.
Zhuang Nainai turned around dazedly. She walked back to her room and sat on the couch, trying to calm herself down and to think through the series of events in detail.
If it wasn’t Gu Xingshan who had stolen the drafts, why had Li Yufeng said so confidently that it was her? And why had Li Yufeng failed to give Gu Xingshan a chance to explain herself before locking Gu Xingshan up?
Could it be that… the person who had swapped the drafts was Li Yufeng?
That couldn’t be it. If it had been Li Yufeng, she only had to blame this entire series of events on the Chief Designer of the Gu Corporation.
