Chapter 689: Proven Wrong! Nainai Strikes Back! (7)

She lifted her head and saw that the reporters below were getting tired of waiting. They were holding up their phones more frequently. At first, they were chatting amongst themselves, but then they were getting quieter. As time went by, they also got more nervous.

Everyone was waiting quietly. At that moment, the sound of stilettos clicking against the ground echoed from the doorway.

Everyone, including the reporters and Zhuang Nainai, couldn’t help but lift their heads and look toward the door.

At that moment, the sound of those footsteps caused everyone’s heartbeats to pound drastically.

As everyone looked to the door in anticipation, it opened.

Mi Nuo suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes!

Everyone in the conference room grew silent. Then, they hurriedly lifted their cameras and started taking pictures of her!

At the same time, the Internet exploded in a frenzy of activity!

The messages “Mi Nuo is here!” and “How cool of Mi Nuo!” overtook the entire Weibo site.

Zhuang Nainai knew that Mi Nuo was seen as an underdog. The public opinion was on Mi Nuo’s side. If Zhuang Nainai couldn’t provide solid proof to show that the design drafts were hers, then the Imperial Group’s reputation would be utterly tarnished!

The most important thing to a corporation was its reputation and culture. This was especially so for a publicly listed corporation like the Imperial Group. The price of its shares could experience great fluctuations within a day.

She narrowed her eyes and lifted her head. She saw Si Zhengting standing next to her, silently gazing at her and not saying a word.

Then, she stood up after receiving strength from his encouraging gaze.

Mi Nuo stood outside the door for a long time before saying, “Gu Qingyan, I’m here.”

Zhuang Nainai pursed her lips.

Mi Nuo looked at the reporters. “As a suppressed member of the working class, I must know how to retaliate. Our country is a country under the rule of law, and it is a socialist nation. If I have been treated unjustly, the state will definitely do me justice.”

After she said this, she looked at Si Zhengting. “Mr. Si had once helped to advance my career. It’s all thanks to his grooming that I am where I am today. And I’m here today not to return his kindness with ingratitude. I’m just here to speak the truth.”

Mi Nuo indeed displayed the characteristics of an employee who had worked for the Imperial Group for many years. Her years of experience in the company showed in the way in which she spoke: calmly and elegantly. After saying these words before the camera, the public’s perception of her became even more favorable.

A series of cheers erupted on the Internet, the netizens praising her for her bravery and clicking on the “thumbs up” icon.

Mi Nuo slowly walked toward the stage, then stood a distance away from Zhuang Nainai. This was specially arranged by Si Zhengting, in case she were to hit Zhuang Nainai in her desperation. After all, Zhuang Nainai was heavily pregnant, and it would be a ghastly sight if anything were to happen to her.

Mi Nuo and Zhuang Nainai stood there before the entire world’s watchful eyes, and they started their face-off.

Mi Nuo got straight to the point. “Gu Qingyan, back then in the design competition, the judges had taken disciplinary action against you for plagiarizing my work. Perhaps you don’t know what the punishment was. It was that you could never enter any of their design competitions again. I don’t understand how else you could face-off against me.”

After she said this, Mi Nuo whipped out a document. It was the disciplinary action that the committee of judges had imposed against Zhuang Nainai.

Then Mi Nuo asked Zhuang Nainai, “Do you have any evidence proving that you didn’t plagiarize my work?”

Zhuang Nainai met her gaze and shook her head. “No.”

After she said this, the audience burst into laughter.

Mi Nuo smirked. “Then how are you going to face-off against me?”

Zhuang Nainai stared at her, her gaze resolute. “Through a concept.”

Mi Nuo was taken aback. “What?”

“Every design has a soul. I want us to face-off by coming up with a design concept.”
