Why did she have a guilty conscience? Fortunately, Zhuang Hong, who was lying on the bed, was a vegetable who knew nothing about what was going on. Otherwise, any man would be shocked to hear that his wife was meeting her ex-boyfriend.

Lan Yibai realized that she was not saying anything. She thought that Cen Shuang was worried that her designs were not good enough, so she comforted her. “Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for you to enter the design department of the company first. You can chat with the designers in our company.”

Lan Yibai was giving her a chance to be involved in Zhuang Corporation. To put it bluntly, her mother-in-law had completely let her guard down with her. She was not even worried that she would use Zhuang Corporation as a springboard and steal ideas for reviving the Cen family’s company. Cen Shuang felt a little uneasy. She had unconsciously been clenching her hands around the document she was holding. Her palms hurt a little.

“Mom, are you really not worried?” Cen Shuang could not help but ask. She did not have this much confidence in herself, so she did not understand why Lan Yibai was so trusting.

Lan Yibai’s lips curled into a loving smile. “The Zhuang family’s business is not just a small clothing company. If it can really help you, it would be doing much more good than it would in Zhuang Tinghao’s hands. If Zhuang Hong does not wake up, what are these things worth? You are still so young. You should live your dreams.”

What she meant was that she was willing to use all of her resources to protect her. Cen Shuang’s heart clenched. No matter what happened to Zhuang Hong, Lan Yibai’s love for her would make it hard to ever think about leaving them. Cen Shuang looked at the man who was sound asleep. She looked at his defenseless appearance. He looked much like a child. How could she bear to leave Zhuang Hong like this? The Zhuang family had given her too many reasons to stay. She had begun to care for him, and when feelings were involved, letting go was difficult. ‘Zhuang Hong, we’re going to be together for the rest of our lives!’

Cen Zhu and Lu Hongyang signed the divorce papers. She moved out of the Zhuang family’s house on the day of the divorce and stayed in a hotel alone. Cen Shuang came to visit her almost every day. “The Zhuang family is very nice. If we move out in the future, I’m sure that my mother-in-law won’t say anything.”

“That’s not my family. We’ll have to move out one day.” Cen Zhu held Cen Shuang’s hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry about me. The Lu family has given me a lot of assets. When you leave the Zhuang family, we will definitely be able to revitalize the Cen family’s legacy.”

Cen Shuang felt guilty when she heard her sister saying that she had to leave the Zhuang family. When she had just married into the Zhuang family, she had wanted to leave as soon as she had the chance. However, now she did not hate Zhuang Hong who was lying motionless in bed, nor did she hate her mother-in-law who loved her so much. If it had been a month ago, she might not have even thought twice about this. However, things seemed to be different now.

“Sis, I’ll be busy for the next few days. Mother-in-law left some company matters to me to handle. There’s some business that I need to handle personally. I’m afraid I can’t come over to accompany you. If you need anything, please just call me.”

Cen Zhu was surprised that the Zhuang family trusted Cen Shuang so much. However, she then thought that the Zhuang family far surpassed the Cen family. A small clothing company was nothing to the Zhuang family, but they were able to use it to tie Cen Shuang to them. They were still too weak. Cen Zhu’s eyes were filled with heartache and guilt. Once the Cen family’s company returned to its prime, Cen Shuang could leave the Zhuang family. The two of them could return to their previous lives. Men in this world could not be relied on. If they wanted to live well, they could only rely on themselves.

“You’re still in school. Yet, Mrs. Zhuang is willing to leave the company to you. You have to take advantage of this opportunity. Don’t worry about me. I’m not that useless. I can take care of myself.”

“Then I’ll come over to accompany you when I’m free. If Lu Hongyang comes looking for trouble again…”

“It’s alright. The Lu family and I have already severed ties. There won’t be any more interactions. Besides, they won’t be looking for us here.” The hotel was just a temporary place to stay. She would be looking for a house to live in soon. After all, she wanted them to have their own place. She wanted to use the assets she had to build a good future for her sister and herself.

Cen Shuang nodded. She hoped that she would not have to worry about Cen Zhu and the Lu family any longer.

She did not want Cen Zhu to know about the collaboration between the Zhuang family and Yang Jinyan. She was afraid that Cen Zhu would worry about her, but she was also afraid that Cen Zhu would scold her. Cen Shuang thought about it for a long time. She thought about how the banquet had ended on such a bad note. Cen Shuang was led into Yang Corporation’s office in Lin City by his assistant.

“I represent the Zhuang Corporation and I’m here to discuss the design proposal with you, Director Yang. This is my proposal.” Cen Shuang saw that Yang Jinyan’s expression was blank. She handed over her design proposal in a professional manner.

Yang Jinyan was not in a hurry to force her. He took it to design and looked at it. “Yang Corporation is looking for a design for our new aircraft’s flight suit. Your style is very similar to the design concept of the new aircraft, but none of these designs qualify.”

Cen Shuang was not surprised at all when she received this answer. This meant that Yang Jinyan’s attitude towards her design proposal was respectful. At the very least, she did not feel that he was using her work for personal gain..
