After staring at Qi Yuye for a moment, seeing his serious expression, Nan Shu suddenly blushed and couldn't help but look away.

Aunt Wang brought the food to the dining room and greeted everyone with a smile.

"Mr. Qi, Ms. Nan, dinner is ready."

Upon hearing that dinner was served, Enen immediately pulled Nuomi to the dining table.

Nuomi is still a child and didn't eat lunch, so Wang Ma specially cooked many of her favorite dishes for dinner.

Upon seeing these dishes, Nuomi swallowed hard, instantly forgetting her sadness.

Noticing Nuomi's change in mood, Nan Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go eat."

Qi Yuye put down the documents in his hand and nodded towards the dining table.

It was a rare treat to have a meal together, and looking at the father and his two sons in front of her, Nan Shu felt a deep sense of emotion.

When she decided to get a divorce, she never imagined that today, the four of them would be sitting together quietly eating a meal.

After dinner, Nan Shu played with Nuomi and Enen for a while before going back to her room to work on her design drafts.

She didn't have much time left; she had to complete the final details of the design within the allotted time.

Qi Yuye stared at Nan Shu's tightly closed door, his eyes surging with an emotion he himself was unaware of.

Two more days passed, and Nan Shu, who had only slept for eight hours in those two days, looked at the design draft on the computer screen with excitement.

She has finally finished her new work!

It was two days earlier than originally expected.

Thanks to her recent visit to Chris's exhibition and her exchanges with Chris and many other masters, she gained a lot of new inspiration and was able to design a more perfect work than before in such a short period of time.

Without much thought, Nan Shu quickly packed her things and rushed to Shengda Group with her laptop.

On the way, Nan Shu couldn't wait to tell Qi Yuye the good news.

After receiving Nan Shu's message, Qi Yuye immediately called.

Looking at the names flashing on the screen, Nan Shu took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

After the call was connected, Qi Yuye's voice came through.

Where are you? I'll send someone to pick you up.

"I'm already on my way, I'll be at the company in ten minutes."

"Okay, I'll have Manager Shi wait for you downstairs."

Despite the concise conversation, Nan Shu could detect the fluctuation in Qi Yuye's tone.

She knew that Qi Yuye was under a lot of pressure because of this incident.

Although Qi Yuye never said it, Nan Shu could sense it and imagine it.

Nan Shu found it a bit strange, since Lin Xi had returned to China with Qi Yuye to develop his career and didn't have any connections here, let alone any reliable connections within Shengda Group.

There's absolutely no way she could have stolen all the design drafts by herself.

Nan Shu's mind was once again filled with Lin Xi's words, and her heart suddenly jumped.

Within Shengda Group, there is only one person who can rival Qi Yuye...

And that person is...

Nan Shu dared not continue thinking about it. She shook her head and withdrew the thought.

The car came to a smooth stop downstairs at the company. Perhaps Manager Shi was still busy, because Nan Shu did not see him when she got out of the car.

She waited at the door for a while, but still didn't see Manager Shi.

Just as I was about to go in, I suddenly saw a familiar figure at a corner not far away.

"Isn't that Manager Shi? What's he doing there?"

Nan Shu was a little confused. She thought Manager Shi was waiting for her there, so she simply took her laptop and walked towards Manager Shi.

As they approached Manager Shi, Nan Shu called out loudly.

"Manager Shi, what are you doing here?"

Upon hearing Nan Shu's voice, Manager Shi froze.

He looked at the woman in front of him and gritted his teeth.

"I will try to pass on what you told me to the old lady, but I can't be sure if she will agree."

Lin Xi curled the corners of her lips, her eyes filled with madness.

"You just need to relay messages; you don't need to worry about anything else."

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Manager Shi's forehead. He tried his best to appear natural and lowered his voice.

"You should leave now. I'll deal with Miss Nan. If she finds out, I won't be able to help you anymore."

Lin Xi raised an eyebrow, unusually not saying anything more, and turned to walk quickly toward the nearby car.

Seeing Lin Xi leave, Manager Shi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned to look at Nan Shu.

"Ms. Nan, I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly. I just ran into a former client, so I couldn't help but chat for a bit."

Manager Shi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and explained with a smile.

Looking at Manager Shi, who appeared nervous, Nan Shu felt a little puzzled and subconsciously glanced in the direction Manager Shi had been looking.

There was a white Maserati parked at that intersection, and nothing else.

The car looked familiar, though; Nan Shu felt like she'd seen it somewhere before.

"Really? No problem, I just got here too. Let's go upstairs now."

Nan Shu didn't think much of it and nodded to Manager Shi.

Seeing that Nan Shu hadn't discovered his secret, Manager Shi was completely relieved and his attitude returned to its usual warmth.

"I heard from Mr. Qi that you were coming over. Is the final design draft ready?"

Nan Shu nodded, a smile appearing on her face.

"Yes, although we don't know if we can gain the upper hand this time, we can at least make up for the losses we caused before."

Manager Shi exclaimed with admiration, "This time, we owe it all to Miss Nan. You're truly amazing; you managed to design several new flagship products in such a short time!"

"Our competitors would never have imagined that although they stole our previous work, our new work is even more outstanding than before."

Nan Shu felt a little embarrassed by the praise and shook her head.

"It hasn't been released yet. Every product needs to be tested by the market. Besides, even if my design is finished, there's still a month between production and promotion."

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, Manager Shi immediately understood what she meant.

"Don't worry, Miss Nan. Now that the culprit behind the previous incident has been found, there's no need to worry about the design drafts being stolen anymore."

"You mean Lin Xi?" Nan Shu asked instinctively.

Manager Shi nodded.

"Of course, wasn't this something that President Qi discovered personally?"

Nan Shu felt something was off. She thought that Manager Shi was a veteran of the company and should be quite familiar with the internal workings, so she couldn't help but ask him.

"Manager Shi, I have a feeling that Lin Xi couldn't have stolen the design drafts on her own. My design drafts are kept strictly confidential before release. Could you help me find out who else in the company could have access to them?"
