Chapter 314: Please Believe Me (12)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Regarding the design drafts that were sent to the manufacturing company, the last time they were amended was that day when Madam went over to the Gus. The Gus handed the design drafts to the clothing manufacturing company five days ago, but Ms. Si had only handed over the drafts a day ago to Director Mi, so…”
Si Jingyu’s drafts were kept under wraps. It had only been handed over to Mi Nuo the day before.
But the drafts had been leaked five days ago!
So…
Only Zhuang Nainai had the opportunity to divulge the drafts at that time. Others were not allowed into Si Jingyu’s office, but Zhuang Nainai was an exception as her relationship with Si Jingyu was good. Zhuang Nainai could even enter Si Jingyu’s bedroom freely!
Moreover, she… had a motive for leaking the drafts.
Gu Xingshan’s words rang in his ears. “… allowed you to video call Zhuang Meiting. Because of her, you actually stole Brother-in-law’s company’s design drafts and handed them over to us!…”
Si Zhengting swiftly clenched his fists. Some thoughts were whirling in his mind as though they were crazily out of control!
Ji Chen’s investigations were conducted secretly. It had been difficult for him to uncover so much information.
All the information that had been collected pointed to a common direction.
But… it couldn’t be.
It definitely wasn’t the case.
He tried hard to convince himself of that and repeated the phrase over and over to himself. After numerous repetitions, he finally calmed down.
His voice was very cold, as though it was conveyed over from another world. His voice determined, he said, “Ji Chen, you should know that she was not the only person with a USB flash drive. It is possible to falsify the date of modification of the design drafts.”
After he said this, Ji Chen, who was standing opposite him, seemed to sigh slightly.
His heart clenched violently.
Si Zhengting understood that Ji Chen was now convinced that Zhuang Nainai was the person who had stolen the design drafts. However, Ji Chen didn’t dare to disclose the entirety of the information that he had uncovered to Si Zhengting at once. Instead, he fed Si Zhengting the information a bit at a time, then allowed Si Zhengting to put the pieces together.
Even though all the evidence was pointing toward Zhuang Nainai, even though one could even rely on the evidence to find her guilty of leaking the design drafts, Si Zhengting remained unconvinced.
He found her character trustworthy.
She would definitely not allow plagiarism to happen.
He… was also unable to come to terms with another of her betrayals.
If it could be said that her betrayal five years ago was understandable considering the extenuating circumstances, the situation now… it was only because of the chance to get to video-call Mother Zhuang…
Si Zhengting’s gaze was deep, and his eyes sagged. “Continue investigating, see who’s responsible for maligning her.”
Ji Chen could not help but protest, “Sir, are you that sure that Madam isn’t the culprit?”
Si Zhengting raised his head. His gaze seemed somewhat vacant and lost.
Was he sure?
To be honest, he didn’t know.
But he knew that he had to trust her.
Or else, they wouldn’t be able to sustain their relationship for much longer.
His deep voice carried a tinge of feebleness and hurt, which he didn’t even realize, “I’m sure. Unless she tells me in person that she did it.”
Otherwise, even if the entire world said that she had committed plagiarism, even if all the evidence suggested that she was the culprit, he would still trust her.
After hanging up the phone, the disheartened Si Zhengting leaned against the backrest of his chair. He placed both of his hands on his lower belly but was unsure of where he should direct his gaze.
The events of the day flashed before his eyes again.
Gu Xingshan’s words pierced into his heart. At that point in time, he had really wished that he could turn around and leave. However, the doctor’s words rang in his ears again.
Furthermore, seeing how her expression was pale from being frightened and agitated, he couldn’t bring himself to walk away.
Thinking back to what happened previously, where a relatively unimportant person could bully her as he pleased, he wondered, if he had really left in the middle of her confrontation with Gu Xingshan, would she have really allowed herself to regress to such a state?
