All the anger and bitterness from minutes ago were transformed into a motivating force, and she felt every cell within her become energized.
As someone who never kept her anger to herself, Zhuang Nainai made sure she had the last laugh. She curled her lips and smiled mockingly. “Ms. Zuo, it looks like your measurements are not needed for the anniversary celebration event after all, you’ve made a wasted trip!”
She recalled her conversation with Zuo Yiyi upstairs earlier at noon and suddenly felt that she had wronged Si Zhengting.
Her gloomy mood immediately brightened.
Zhuang Nainai walked forward with a gleam in her eyes. “Also, quit being so smug, pining after someone else’s fiancée!”
Zuo Yiyi felt as if she was going to explode with anger.
She took a step forward and reached out to hit Zhuang Nainai. “Zhuang Nainai, you jerk!”
Piak!
Her wrist was caught by Zhuang Nainai, who blinked her doe eyes and looked back at Zuo Yiyi with a sneer. “Ms. Zuo, don’t speak like that, others might mistakenly think that I broke your heart! I’m not interested in girls!”
She then shoved Zuo Yiyi to the side and clapped her hands. Turning to Mi Nuo, she announced, “Director Mi, since you don’t need my measurements, I shall leave now.”
She then stalked out without waiting for Mi Nuo’s reply.
Zuo Yiyi finally came back to her senses when Zhuang Nainai was out of sight. She looked down at her wrist, which was red from being held so tightly just now. Fury burned within her.
Zuo Yiyi seethed with anger, her teeth clenched so tightly that her jaws hurt. “Zhuang Nainai, don’t be so cocky, I won’t give up so easily!”
She then threw Mi Nuo a vehement stare and rushed to the lift lobby in her stilettos. She had to ask Brother Ting what was going on. Why was there a sudden change?!
Was it because of that bitch Zhuang Nainai’s harassment?
Unfortunately, Zuo Yiyi was stopped by the bodyguards when she got to the top-floor office. Si Zhengting was not someone she could just barge in on whenever she felt like it.
Zuo Yiyi was livid with anger. Right then, Ji Chen walked over and persuaded her, “Ms. Zuo, are you sure you want to make a fuss here and let Sir hear it all?”
His reminder immediately calmed Zuo Yiyi. She stared at Si Zhengting’s office furiously again before biting her lips and looking down dejectedly.
She dared not to. If she were to incur the wrath of Si Zhengting, no one could save her, not even her father’s company.
Besides, she did not want to look so defeated, she had to keep her dignity and pride.
Zuo Yiyi turned away with reluctance, projecting a view of her back that was pitiful to watch.

Zhuang Nainai exited the meeting room full of mettle, but she was also full of self-reproach for being such a loser.
Si Zhengting was the one who ditched her in the morning and refused to see her during lunch. But now, she was over the moon just for an event outfit...
When she was rightfully his partner to such events as his lawfully wedded wife!
But then again... she could be happy for an entire day just because he smiled at her during high school. It didn’t matter. She allowed herself to gloat for a while.
Zhuang Nainai returned to venue design with excitement and could not pay attention to another word Zhang Chaowen had said.
Zhuang Nainai held onto her phone and her mind wandered.
Si Zhengting had it pretty hard in life. He had to manage such a large company at the tender age of 25.
He had told her that he had few friends in high school. He probably had even fewer now... and his only family... was herself.
