Ji Chen hurriedly lowered his head. “Sir, I’ll go check it out right now!”

Having made head and tail of the whole matter, Ji Chen arrived at the top floor. Fearfully, he opened the company’s Intranet and showed Si Zhengting the popular post of #zhuangnainaiplagiarism#.

Si Zhengting’s gaze turned cold. A few moments later, his eyes sharpened. “The Imperial Group has no need for big-mouthed people. You know what to do, right?”

Ji Chen’s body shook. His voice low, he replied, “Yes, Sir.”

That day, the intern from the legal department was fired by the Imperial Group for exposing the company’s secrets.

At the same time, the design department came under a sweeping investigation.

Everyone from the design department, a grand total of 180 people, was crammed into the conference room.

Mi Nuo’s face was grim. Looking at the people and naming the eight people, she then looked at Zhuang Nainai. Raising her voice, she shouted, “All of you were chatting and fighting during work hours. You have severely contravened company policy; now, in front of everyone, we are making this known. Additionally, all of you have to write a reflection letter and hand it over to me before the end of today!”

The eight people were stunned at the announcement. Even Zhuang Nainai was puzzled. Was Mi Nuo standing up for her?

Mi Nuo always had a gentle and soft demeanor, resulting in some of them rebutting her. “I’m not satisfied with this arrangement, Boss Mi. What’s wrong with a little bit of rest during work hours? Aren’t we allowed for some rest time to get a cup of coffee?”

“That’s right, Boss Mi, I don’t agree with this. What’s wrong with us getting together to chat? We didn’t even spend more than five minutes together!”

Mi Nuo sighed and looked at them, resigned. “This was from Mr. Si.”

The mention of Mr. Si silenced all eight of them immediately.

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes brightened. So the one who was standing up for her wasn’t Mi Nuo but him?

But they had been arguing heatedly, hadn’t they? And wasn’t she just a thief who had stolen the design drafts, a plagiarist and a smearer of his mother Ding Mengya?

She still vividly recalled how he had coldly told her that he had wanted to strangle her to death that night. His gaze that night had contained both disappointment and hopelessness.

So how was it possible that he was standing up for her? Or was it that he was finally beginning to believe her?

Having thought this, Zhuang Nainai looked questioningly at Mi Nuo.

Mi Nuo turned to face her. “As for you, Zhuang Nainai, you were arguing with your colleagues maliciously. You have to copy the company rules and regulations 100 times! Please also write a reflection letter and hand it to me before the day ends!”

The hopes that Zhuang Nainai had in her heart previously were immediately extinguished.

Was the company punishing her? Or was it Si Zhengting?

The punishments for the other eight colleagues weren’t that severe, but for her...

Copying the company rules and regulations 100 times. Was he trying to get her to copy for the whole day?

Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists. Mi Nuo spoke before she could express anything. “Meeting adjourned!”

As everyone left the room, the eight colleagues and Zhuang Nainai stayed behind.

As the conference room quietened down, someone from the group of eight asked, “Director Mi, could it be that Mr. Si is trying to find a reason to punish Zhuang Nainai? And all of us just happen to be collateral damage?”.
