Gu Deshou was so tired out by the mother-daughter duo who both kept crying. He took a deep breath, then sat on the sofa helplessly.

Li Yufeng glanced at Zhuang Nainai, teeth gritted as she said, “Every time you come back, you cause utter chaos. Gu Qingyan, will you only rest when you force me and your sister into a corner and when you get that b*tch back?”

Zhuang Nainai stared at her, amused.

Just what kind of family did she have?!

Gu Xingshan had committed such a grave mistake, but it had been glossed over after Li Yufeng had said that she was “young and didn’t know better.” She loved her daughter so much yet treated Zhuang Nainai so coldly.

If not for the fact that Zhuang Nainai and Gu Xingshan looked alike, Zhuang Nainai would have never believed that she was Li Yufeng’s daughter as well.

Zhuang Nainai remained silent. Just then, they heard a car driving into the compound. Gu Deshou quickly said, “Alright, we can’t wash our dirty linen in public! You all are to act appropriately in front of outsiders!”

After he said that, Gu Xingshan heaved a sigh of relief. Li Yufeng turned around and glared at her, and she couldn’t help but chastise Gu Xingshan softly, “Don’t you dare take the initiative so outrageously in the future!”

Gu Xingshan nodded, as docile as a kitten as she leaned against Li Yufeng.

The Gu Corporation’s Chief Designer was a middle-aged woman in her late forties or early fifties. She exchanged some polite pleasantries with the Gus after entering the Gu villa. Then, Zhuang Nainai handed over the drafts, which the Gus had handed over to the manufacturing company, to her. It was for her to confirm if she had been the person who had altered the design.

The designer took a look at the drafts and was immediately surprised. “This set of design drafts is slightly better than the one I altered! But it indeed isn’t the set that I had amended!”

After she said that, Li Yufeng was shocked. She immediately replied, “How can that be? Old Wang, look at it properly. You were the person who passed the drafts to me. I didn’t let anyone else take a look at them before I handed them over to the manufacturing company!”

The designer laughed as she replied, “I’m not that old yet, and my eyesight isn’t that bad either. Look at this T-shaped zipper. Everyone in the industry knows that that’s TZ’s signature design. Ordinary people like me wouldn’t use such a design.”

Li Yufeng arched her eyebrows. “It really isn’t your doing?”

The designer shook her head.

Gu Deshou glanced at them nervously. “What is going on? How did our design drafts get swapped by someone else?”

Zhuang Nainai observed everything that was going on coldly from her vantage point on the couch.

Li Yufeng and Gu Deshou’s surprise were not artificial. Furthermore, these two people wouldn’t have done such a thing to harm her, as it would have caused harm to the Gu Corporation as well.

So, her deduction had been correct.

Zhuang Nainai glanced at Gu Xingshan, who was wide-eyed and seated next to Zhuang Nainai. Zhuang Nainai laughed sarcastically before she said, “Who else could have changed the design drafts while both of you were completely unaware of what was going on?!”

Gu Deshou’s sharp gaze landed on Gu Xingshan quickly.

Upon seeing his expression, Gu Xingshan immediately bristled. “Father, what are you staring at me for? This, this definitely wasn’t my doing! In my opinion, this was a deliberate, deceitful trick committed by Qingyan! What difference is there between a set of design drafts that was altered earlier and one that’s altered later?!”

“The difference is, if it was altered earlier, even if the Imperial Group were to sue the Gu Corporation, you can insist that the design drafts were created by your own team! However, if the drafts were amended later, there are too many loopholes. There definitely is enough evidence to prove that the draft set is a plagiarized one!” Zhuang Nainai put emphasis on every single word that she said, trying to drive the gravity of the situation home to her audience.

There were too many iconic features of Si Jingyu’s work on the design drafts for Gu Xingshan to prove her innocence!
