Everyone from the venue design department gathered together, trying to figure out who the father of the child was.
Su Meiâs reasoning seemed logical. âThink about it. Back then, Executive Assistant Ji was the one who had recommended her to Director Mi. Furthermore, on the day that Zhuang Nainai came, our company started giving us packed meals! But do you all still remember? Zhuang Nainaiâs packed meals were different from ours!â
At these words, all the employees suddenly remembered that it was indeed the case. Back then, Leader Zhang had wanted to take Zhuang Nainaiâs packed meal for himself but had not succeeded in doing so.
Su Meiâs expression was thoughtful. She continued speculating solemnly, âThings like packed meals should be handled by the Office of the General Manager. As the boss of the Office, Executive Assistant Ji definitely had a hand in this. I remember now, our packed lunches were always delivered to us by someone else, whereas Zhuang Nainaiâs were delivered by May personally!â
âBut Mayâs position in the Office of the General Manager is second only to Executive Assistant Jiâs. Isnât the only person who can order her about Executive Assistant Ji in that case?â
Everyone nodded in unison.
âThink about it. Doesnât Executive Assistant Ji always go to the basement carpark as well? And Iâve realized that Zhuang Nainai hardly goes to the cafeteria for lunch in the afternoons and that Executive Assistant Ji has never even been there! Think about it â the last time Li Li was giving Zhuang Nainai a hard time in the cafeteria, Executive Assistant Ji had rescued Zhuang Nainai, his damsel in distress! Zhuang Nainai had committed such a huge mistake, but the company had always been of the opinion that she was wronged. Wasnât that because Executive Assistant Ji had spoken up for her in front of Mr. Si?â [Ji Chen protests: Iâm really not that much of a big shot!]
Everyone nodded in unison again.
Su Mei slapped the table. âAlright, if you want to know who the father of the child is, letâs go and hide, then ambush them today!â
As she said this, she waved her hand in the air. âLee, go to Carpark 1!â
âWang, youâll be at Carpark 2!â
âThere will be someone at each carpark! Weâll definitely be able to catch her in the act!â As she said this, Su Mei grinned sinisterly. Everyone around her grew afraid as they watched her. Then, she pumped up an arm and clenched her fist. âDamn, Zhuang Nainai, weâve been in the same department for so long. Iâve treated you as a sister, but youâve even kept the fact that you have a husband away from me! If I donât uncover your adulterous lover today, my last name isnât Su!â
Everyone was shocked into silence. So why were they roped into causing mischief along with her?
Zhuang Nainai wasnât aware of Su Meiâs intentions. At that moment, Zhuang Nainai was staring at her computer as she envisaged the sketch of the spring outfits in her mindâs eye.
On the top floor...
Si Zhengting was up to his shoulders in work, but the phone on his table rang punctually.
He looked down, glanced at the display, and saw the word âstrawberryâ on it.
Si Zhengting immediately picked up his phone and gave Zhuang Nainai a call. However, Zhuang Nainai had gone to get herself a glass of water at the moment. Her phone was still in her jacket pocket, and thus, Si Zhengting did not manage to get through to her.
Si Zhengting thought for a moment before calling out, âJi Chen!â
Ji Chen immediately pushed the door open obediently and walked in. He stood before Si Zhengting. âMr. Si.â
Si Zhengting coughed, then said, âYou havenât been given a raise in half a year, right?â
Ji Chen immediately lowered his head. He thought to himself, Ever since Madam got here, there have been so many contingencies happening! Itâs good that you havenât deducted my salary! How would I have the guts to ask for a raise?!
Ji Chen remained silent. Si Zhengting said, âHm, Iâll add $500,000 to your annual salary.â
Ji Chen was speechless.
Ji Chen had been struck dumb by this prize that had fallen into his lap!
He stared at Si Zhengting dazedly. Then he heard Si Zhengting say, âGo downstairs and remind Madam to eat the strawberries.â
