Gu Deshou paused. “I’ll settle it as soon as possible.”

Zhuang Nainai did not trust that reply at all, but she had no other alternatives at the moment. After a moment of silence, she asked, “Can I video call Mother?”

Gu Deshou did not agree immediately and only answered after thinking for a while, “Give me some time to arrange it.”

Some time to arrange it?

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes narrowed. “Father, I believe you probably know how important my mother is to me, so you won’t harm her, right?”

Taken aback, Gu Deshou said sincerely, “Yes. She’s living very well overseas, you don’t have to worry.”

Upon saying this, he changed the subject. “I heard you got into the design department of the Imperial Group, so you should have gained some knowledge about the design team of the Imperial Group, shouldn’t you? Its fashion design department is very well known in the whole of Beijing, and even the whole of China. Qingyan, what do you think… about what I’ve asked just now?”

What did she think?

Zhuang Nainai felt that this was mission impossible!

Had he not seen how busy the entire company was for the 100th-year-anniversary celebration?

Even the fashion design department had allocated a large group of people to discuss about their style of dressing the other day.

Moreover!

What the apparel brand of the Imperial Group sold was design and creativity. How could they just give the design to him so easily?

Gu Deshou must be delusional.

Zhuang Nainai scoffed, “What do you think?”

Gu Deshou stood up with a pretentious smile on his face. “This seems like I’m forcing you into doing something you are against, but Mr. Si pampers you so much. You should be able to ask for a design from him. If that’s really not possible, you can go take a look at the designs created by the design department and provide some feedback for the design department of our company, can’t you?”

Provide some feedback? Zhuang Nainai sneered. This Gu Deshou was really shameless. He was actually asking her to commit theft!

Zhuang Nainai rejected firmly, “That’s impossible!” The relationship between her and Si Zhengting just became better. How could she let this matter cause another conflict?

Gu Deshou was still very patient. Looking at Zhuang Nainai, he sighed. “Qingyan, if Gu Corporation were to go bankrupt and close down, I’m afraid your Mother Zhuang would not even be able to afford a plane ticket to come home, would she?”

When Zhuang Nainai heard this, she was panic-stricken and stood up instantly.

She looked at Gu Deshou. “Are you threatening me?”

“I’m not threatening you, don’t put it that way. Qingyan, if you can save Gu Corporation’s apparel this year by handing over the design drafts, I’ll let you video call her, how about that?”

As Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists tightly, she really wished she could give this person a slap across his face.

However, despite opening her mouth repeatedly, she could only look down. “Let me think about it.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and started walking out of the study room. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks and turned back to stare at Gu Deshou when she reached the door. “Since you talked about Alzheimer’s, I actually have a question that I have been wanting to ask you.”

“Shoot.”

Zhuang Nainai questioned word by word, “If the car accident was the triggering factor, then what’s the root cause of the illness?”

After finding out Mother Zhuang’s illness in the past, she had been very puzzled.

It was true that her mother had been bottling up the past deep in her heart throughout the years they lived together. She had never mentioned a single word about it. However, although life was tough, they were very happy.

Hence, anything that could have hurt her mother so much that it caused this illness must have happened in the past.

Since the time when Gu Deshou and Li Yufeng met them, she had wanted to know what exactly happened between the three of them.

If what Li Yufeng said was true, then why did Mother steal her away?
