“I don’t care! I just know that I am very upset right now!” As Mi Nuo was pacing around, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and grabbed her own hair.
“It has been so long and you have been going on about how Mr. Si is investigating us. But haven’t you already appropriately settled the mountain village matters for me a long time ago? He won’t be able to find it. Never would they expect us to be related like this. Can you help me chase her away?” Upon saying this, Mi Nuo squatted down and took a deep breath. “I’m really going crazy. Mother, I’m going crazy.”
As soon as she called her “Mother,” Li Yufeng’s voice became significantly gentler over the phone.
However, Li Yufeng’s stance remained firm. “Nuo Nuo, I have already planned everything. Do you know how closely and intensely the private investigator that Mr. Si hired is checking on us? I’m even scared that they would intercept our phone call and eavesdrop on us! So, you should stop and be obedient. Wait. What we have to do now is wait.”
After hearing this, Mi Nuo suddenly bent down and buried her head.
Upon hanging up, she felt a depressing feeling infiltrate her chest, and it did not want to dissipate, causing her to feel suffocated in the office.
Taking in a deep breath, Mi Nuo walked out of the office.
Everyone on the 18th floor knew that she was just a mere figurehead acting as the Director of the design department. Hence, Mi Nuo felt very uncomfortable when their eyes were on her.
She took the elevator to the first floor as she wanted to head out to the cafe opposite the office to have a cup of coffee.
She had just taken a sip of the coffee, which had just been served, when she witnessed a commotion near the entrance of the Imperial Group building.
She looked over, only to see a man standing there. Although he was wearing a suit, he looked very pathetic as he yelled at the security officer, “Step aside! Let me go in! I want to look for Zhuang Nainai! I want to look for Mr. Si!”
Mi Nuo scoffed and could not help but wonder who this man was. Does he really think that Mr. Si is someone whom he can meet easily?
What a joke!
She looked down and took another sip of the coffee while listening to the angry cussing over there.
That man was still going on. “I’m looking for Zhuang Nainai! I’m her ex-boyfriend! Ask her to come out! I have something to tell her! Ask her to come out!”
Meanwhile, the security officers were very diligent and performed their duties to the best of their abilities. “If you don’t leave, we are calling the police. You are obstructing our company’s operations.”
When the man heard that they were calling the police, he seemed to be frightened. He took two steps back and immediately left dejectedly.
Upon taking in all these, Mi Nuo’s eyes lit up. She suddenly stood up and chased after him.

At the moment, Zhuang Nainai was chatting with Su Mei.
When they mentioned funny things, Zhuang Nainai giggled.
Seeing her like this, Su Mei was slightly anxious. “Be careful, be careful. Didn’t someone say online that a pregnant lady’s water broke from laughing too hard?”
After hearing this, Zhuang Nainai couldn’t help but laugh again. “I’m only six months pregnant. I’m not even close to giving birth. My water won’t break!”
When Su Mei heard this, she replied with a sound of affirmation, “I have never given birth, so I don’t know anything yet. But, Nainai, when is Mr. Si planning to hold a wedding with you?”
Hold a wedding?
After hearing this, Zhuang Nainai was slightly caught off guard.
She looked down and sighed.
Si Zhengting had mentioned this, but she had said that she wanted to discuss this after giving birth.
On one hand, her body condition was indeed a problem.
On the other hand, holding a wedding meant that they were announcing to the world that they were a married couple.
