Zhuang Nainai paused and looked at Mi Nuo, whose eyes looked apologetic.
What did Mi Nuo mean?
Was she asking her to give in?
But she had to leave.
How could she design outfits for her husband and another woman?
Sheâs not Mother Teresa!
Zuo Yiyi watched and demanded, âLet her leave! Mi Nuo, let her go! Donât you dare come back after youâre gone! If you want to stay, you better take my measurements today!â
Zhuang Nainai broke free from Mi Nuoâs grip to leave.
Mi Nuo was at her witâs end. She looked at Zuo Yiyi, then to Zhuang Nainai, before cautiously speaking, âMs. Zuo, I-I have something to inform you.â
Zuo Yiyi paid her no attention. âAfter my measurements are taken!â
Mi Nuo was distressed. Her difficult expression caught Zhuang Nainaiâs attention.
âBut, this concerns the measurement...â Mi Nuo mumbled, very much unlike her usual self.
Zuo Yiyi furrowed her brows. âStop mumbling, out with it!â
Mi Nuo glanced at Zhuang Nainai again. âZhuang Nainai, you go out first, I...â
Zuo Yiyi misunderstood and had the impression that Mi Nuo was here to help Zhuang Nainai. She roared, âMi Nuo, what is there that Zhuang Nainai cannot hear? I did nothing wrong, Iâm not afraid! Say it now!â
Mi Nuo was put in a difficult spot. âBut Ms. Zuo, this concerns your privacy, I...â
âSay it!â Zuo Yiyi demanded.
Mi Nuo let go of Zhuang Nainai and clenched her teeth. With her eyes down, she said, âSorry, Ms. Zuo, I just received orders from Mr. Si. His partner for the anniversary celebration... has been changed.â
Zuo Yiyi was dumbstruck.
Her eyes widened in shock and she looked at Mi Nuo incredulously. âWh-what did you say?â
Zhuang Nainai thought she heard wrong too. There has been a change?
To whom?
Her gaze, like Zuo Yiyiâs, was fixed on Mi Nuo.
Zhuang Nainai had an inkling, but she was unsure. A glimmer of hope danced within her. Could that person be...
Mi Nuo kept her head down, and she did not know where to place her hands. âMs. Zuo, Iâve also only just heard.â
Zuo Yiyi felt as if she had been slapped hard across her face.
She clenched her fists and her body shook uncontrollably. Catching Zhuang Nainaiâs brightened eyes, she asked in disbelief, âWho has it been changed to?â
Mi Nuo sighed. âI donât know, but Mr. Si gave a measurement.â
She then retrieved a piece of paper from her pocket.
Zuo Yiyi walked over and snatched it away from her hands. The few characters were simple, but she could tell right away it was Si Zhengtingâs writing.
And the measurement on the paper was for a petite frame, definitely not her own!
Brother Ting had cared for few women over all these years. It was obvious whom that measurement belonged to.
Zuo Yiyi stared at Zhuang Nainai in disbelief. How could it be? Why?!
She clenched her fists tightly and tore the paper up in shreds. But it could hide nothing.
Zhuang Nainai saw her reaction and quickly understood what was going on. She instantly swelled with satisfaction and happiness.
