As soon as he came in, he noticed that something was not right in the atmosphere. The old man looked like he was about to eat someone.

"You've been away from home day after day, but you brat still knows how to come back!"

When he remembered what A Guang had just said that Nangong Jun had negotiated several endorsements for Gu Zhirong, the old man felt furious.

But Su Dongning was right beside him, so it was hard for him to have an attack on the spot.

"Grandpa, you know that the group has a lot of things going on during this period."

Nangong Jun glanced at Su Dongning, who also looked unhappy, and then set his sights on the old man.

"Besides, I haven't been away from home recently, I just came back late..."

"Okay, don't tell me this."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Nangong Honglang's stern face.

"Xiao Ning goes to the hospital for a prenatal check-up tomorrow. You go with her."

Nangong Jun looked stunned.

He happens to have an important cross-border meeting at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

It will directly determine whether Nangong Group can successfully expand foreign markets in the second half of the year.

"No need, grandpa."

Su Dongning saw his hesitation, and a hint of self-deprecation flashed through her clear eyes.

She said calmly: "Anyway, the hospital has made arrangements. It's no problem for me to go alone."

Without waiting for the old man to speak, she excused herself as a little tired and went back to her room to rest.

Nangong Juan looked at the thin and petite figure and frowned slightly.

She seems to be extremely indifferent to herself.

"Xiao Ning must be angry, it's all your fault!"

Nangong Honglang naturally noticed this, and after Su Dongning returned to the room, he no longer concealed his anger at all.

"If you don't spend more time with your wife, you'll be courteous in front of that woman named Gu."

"I have never seen such an irresponsible husband like you!"

What grandpa said was too unpleasant to hear.

Nangong Jun frowned slightly, but did not refute.

After all, he was really busy with work during this period and neglected Su Dongning.

"I don't care, you must accompany Xiao Ning to the hospital tomorrow!"

Nangong Honglang blew his beard and glared, threatening: "Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to that woman named Gu!"

What does this matter have to do with Gu Zhirong?

Nangong Jun was about to say a few words for her, but the old man didn't give him the chance at all. He flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

In the room, Su Dongning was still thinking about what Gu Jiajia said before.

If her grandfather hadn't been there just now, she would have really wanted to ask him why he did this.

Is it possible that just to please the woman he loves, he can disregard the right from wrong and trample on the efforts of others?

This incident was like a thorn piercing into her heart. If she didn't pull it out, it would only get deeper and deeper.

Su Dongning hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to go out and talk to Nangong Jun to make it clear.

As soon as she opened the door, she bumped into the man who was about to come in.

"hiss!"

She gasped in pain, and her forehead quickly turned red.

However, Nangong Jun on the opposite side was not much better, and he was also covering his chin with his hand.

"Are you OK?"

Su Dongning shook her head, subconsciously raised her head and glanced at the man's red chin, and the anger in her heart suddenly calmed down a bit.

"You have something to do with me?"

Nangong Jun nodded.

"Come in, I just have something to tell you."

At this time, a figure hiding at the end of the corridor suddenly appeared, walked over quietly, and put his ear against the door.

"I have a very important meeting at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. It cannot be rescheduled or canceled. Prenatal check-up..."

"No."

Su Dongning interrupted him and said calmly: "Since you have work, go and do it. I can handle the prenatal checkup by myself.

Anyway, you're here and it won't do anything."

Did this girl take any medicine today?

Nangong Jun frowned slightly.

Originally, he wanted to say that he had asked Song Hyuk to cancel all work tomorrow afternoon, and wanted to ask her if she could change the time of the prenatal check-up to the afternoon.

But hearing her cold tone, all the words that came to her lips were swallowed back.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and remained silent.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward.

In the end, Nangong Jun was the first to speak and break the silence.

"I heard that Gu Jiajia went to school to trouble you. Are you okay?"

Su Dongning looked up at him and shook her head.

Nangong Jun felt a little uncomfortable in his heart for no reason.

After being with her for such a long time, this was the first time she treated him with such indifference.

"I have already warned her, this kind of thing will never happen again..."

"You helped Gu Jiajia suppress the plagiarism issue, right?"

Even though she already knew the answer, Su Dongning still clenched her fists unconsciously when she asked this question.

"yes."

"Then do you know that the work she copied is mine?"

"Know."

Su Dongning's breath was stagnant, and her long nails pierced into her palms.

Nangong Jun's answer was so candid that her confident questions seemed pale and feeble.

In his heart, is he so insignificant?

The original anger was gradually dissipated, and then a deep grievance came to my heart.

"Knowing that Gu Jiajia had plagiarized, he still helped her suppress the matter and even banned my account to prevent me from speaking out in defense of my rights.

Nangong Jun, why didn’t I notice that you were so ignorant of right from wrong before?”

Su Dongning couldn't control her emotions, and a thin layer of mist filled her eyes.

She turned around and tried to keep her tone as calm as possible.

"I won't just let this matter go. I will definitely pursue it to the end, even if you help her."

Seeing her gently trembling shoulders, Nangong Jun's eyes darkened little by little.

The uncomfortable feeling in my heart before became intensified again.

"I just helped to suppress it and prevent this matter from getting out.

As for her taking this work to participate in the competition and having the website ban your account, I only found out about it after the fact."

He frowned and explained seriously: "Even if she is Zhirong's cousin, I will not condone her doing such a thing.

Su Dongning, I'm not that stupid yet."

Su Dongning was stunned and turned around in surprise.

"It's really not you?"

Nangong Jun nodded.

Seeing two particularly clear tear tracks hanging on her face, a hint of distress appeared in her deep eyes.

If he could have discovered Gu Zhirong's behind-the-scenes actions earlier, this little girl would not have been subjected to such unfair treatment.

Su Dongning suddenly became less angry, but she was still a little aggrieved.

Although there was no affection between them, she could understand his preference and protection for Gu Zhirong.

But she couldn't accept that he was covering up Gu Jiajia's plagiarism.

Anyone in an original industry will never tolerate someone stealing the fruits of their labor.

She rolled her hands twice to wipe away her tears and muttered softly.

"But you still protected her from the beginning..."
