As soon as Zhuang Nainai finished speaking, Li Yufeng and Gu Deshou both looked at Gu Xingshan questioningly.

Gu Xingshan immediately made a face to seem as if she had been wronged. “Gu Qingyan, what are you doing? Let go, you’re hurting me!”

Upon hearing this, Li Yufeng stretched out her hands and tried to push Zhuang Nainai away. “Even if there’s anything to be said, let go of your sister first! Why do you have to be so physical?”

Zhuang Nainai took a step back and avoided Li Yufeng’s push.

Looking at Li Yufeng, she felt a little hurt.

Even if they never spent much time together, Li Yufeng was still her mother. Yet, whenever she had any issue with Gu Xingshan, Li Yufeng ― this woman who claimed to be her birth mother ― would always side with Gu Xingshan without thinking twice.

Giving a cold laugh, she turned her head toward Gu Deshou. “The design drafts that I sent you weren’t the ones that you eventually sent to the garment factory. The design drafts have been altered by then!”

Hearing this, Gu Deshou raised his brows and nervously said, “What do you mean?”

“What I mean is, the designs that I gave you weren’t plagiarized from the Imperial Group, there was someone who changed the design drafts!”

Gu Deshou turned to Li Yufeng, his tone turning serious. “What exactly is going on?”

The usual coldness on Li Yufeng’s face had by now given way to confusion. “What are you saying?”

Taking a deep breath, Zhuang Nainai forcefully asked Li Yufeng, “Where did the design drafts that you sent to the factory come from?”

Raising his brows once more, Gu Deshou looked straight at Li Yufeng.

Li Yufeng said, “They were your design drafts, and the designer from my company only made some adjustments here and there. How is it possible that the details turned out to be exactly the same as the Imperial Group’s?”

“Which designer?” Zhuang Nainai pressed on.

Li Yufeng was puzzled. “Well, our principal designer! The designs were out, and I just let her make some changes here and there. The design drafts this time were of utmost importance, so nobody in the whole company knew about these drafts except for me and her.”

Gu Deshou firmly said, “Get her over here.”

With breakfast ruined, the whole family sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for the designer to arrive.

Hiding beside Li Yufeng, Gu Xingshan mocked Zhuang Nainai. “Gu Qingyan, don’t try to play tricks here. It was you who stole the design drafts from the Imperial Group. Are you trying to push the blame onto our company designer?”

Gu Xingshan’s eyes had brightened at this point. But seeing that Gu Deshou was around, she hypocritically continued, “Did you have a fight with Brother-in-law?”

Zhuang Nainai stared at her. “Does me fighting with him make you happy?”

At this point, she turned toward Gu Deshou. “Right, she just reminded me. Were you the one who let her make a scene at the Si residence yesterday?”

Gu Deshou was stunned. “No, I didn’t.”

Now it was his turn to turn toward Gu Xingshan. “What’s up? You went to the Si residence yesterday?”

Gu Xingshan immediately lowered her head, her voice turning soft. “I only went to ask Brother-in-law to forgive us and withdraw the lawsuit...”

“Withdraw the lawsuit? Then who was the one who was ranting and causing a ruckus about how I was betraying Si Zhengting?!” Zhuang Nainai curled her lips, her expression cold. The thought of the desolation the previous night made her blood boil.

Before Gu Xingshan could reply, Zhuang Nainai carried on with her attack. “Lots of people at the Si residence heard what you said yesterday. Unless you have the ability to hush all of them, you’d better not deny what I said!”
