"How did it get captured by the enemy?"

The next morning, Zhao Bo cornered Yi An in her office, demanding a reasonable explanation.

In his mind, how could such a perfect plan possibly fail?

It's definitely not that the enemy is too strong, it's definitely that the teammates are too incompetent.

Hearing his loud voice, Yi An hurriedly craned her neck to look outside the door. Seeing that there was no movement, she turned her head and glared at him.

"Are you afraid she won't hear you?!"

Zhao Bo gave him a disdainful look, leaned against his desk, and scolded, "I sent her away a long time ago to photocopy documents. Look at how scared you are!"

Yi'an didn't refute, but instead sighed sadly.

"In the end, I underestimated her. She truly deserves to be called the invincible love expert. When she flirts with men, she's like Daji unleashing her ultimate skill, recklessly unleashing her power."

Zhao Bo disagreed with this view and chuckled dismissively.

"Who would have thought that the dashing and charming Young Master Yi, who roams among a hundred flowers, is actually a pure, innocent white lotus in bud."

He made sarcastic remarks without any politeness.

Yi An glared at him irritably, and was about to retort when there was a knock on the office door.

The two exchanged a glance, and Zhao Bo immediately stood up, his carefree demeanor replaced by a serious one.

"Come in."

The office door was pushed open, and Su Yan walked in slowly. As if she didn't see Zhao Bo, she went straight to Yi An's desk and placed the documents in her hand in front of him.

"Mr. Yi, this is the planning report for the new project."

As soon as Yi An saw her, she remembered how Yi An had held her hand that day, and her face began to burn involuntarily.

Even Zhao Bo, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. What kind of innocent young man's expression was that?

"Cough cough".

Zhao Bo coughed lightly twice, intentionally, to remind Yi An.

Yi An immediately realized what was happening, awkwardly shifted her posture, and pretended to look through the documents while looking down.

"Has a character designer been chosen?"

He asked casually.

Before Su Yan could speak, Zhao Bo said first, "It hasn't been decided yet."

Su Yan glanced at him, and Zhao Bo immediately returned the glance with a sharp look, asserting his dominance.

"Alright, you can go out now. I have something to discuss with President Yi."

Zhao Bo gave him the order to leave.

Su Yan didn't say anything, but glanced in Yi An's direction. Yi An kept his head down, focused on the documents, as if he hadn't noticed them.

With no one trying to stop her, Su Yan naturally had no reason to stay.

"Then I'll go out first."

She obediently said something and then turned and walked out.

As soon as the office door closed, Yi An immediately breathed a sigh of relief and slumped weakly into her chair.

"They're finally gone. I can hardly breathe."

Zhao Bo reverted to his lazy demeanor, "Look at you, so pathetic."

Yi An wasn't in the mood for a verbal battle, and tapped the document twice with her finger.

"Why hasn't a designer been chosen yet?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Bo sighed and said, "It's not that you strive for perfection. I've checked all the major designers in the country, and there are only two who meet your standards. They can't sign contracts because of other commitments. Now, both domestically and internationally, I guess only Qiong is left."

Joan is a renowned international character designer, a graduate of one of the world's top design schools. However, she is a mysterious figure; no one has ever seen her face or known her name, not even her clients.

Although she is famous, she has few works, sometimes not even one every two or three years.

Perhaps that's why her works are so popular.

"Joan, get in touch with her. Her work over the past two years has focused on educational games for children, and I'm sure she'll be interested in ours."

These words were heard by Zhao Bo and also by Su Yan.

She lowered her eyes in deep thought, her expression unreadable.

When she looked up again, Lin Hui's figure appeared in her line of sight.

Lin Hui stood not far from her, a clearly mocking smile on her face, indicating that she had witnessed Su Yan's actions.

Su Yan didn't care and pretended to be nonchalant, calling out "Miss Lin" in a generous manner.

Lin Hui never expected that her skin could be so thick, and that she could remain calm even after being caught red-handed.

She disdained to greet someone as insignificant as Su Yan. Wearing sky-high heels and walking with the stride of a model, she walked straight over and, in the instant she passed Su Yan, deliberately bumped into her shoulder without any politeness.

Su Yan was caught off guard and cried out in pain.

Lin Hui curled her lips into a smile and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "That's really despicable."

Before Su Yan could react, she pushed open the door without turning her head and walked straight into the office.

Su Yan stared intently at the office door, her face expressionless, and gracefully turned and left.

"What are you saying? You seem so happy!"

Lin Hui greeted everyone with a big smile as soon as she entered.

She was all smiles, but Yi An and Zhao Bo instantly became expressionless.

Lin Hui didn't care about their expressions at all, pretending not to see them, and walked straight to the desk. With a casual glance, she noticed the documents on the desk.

She picked it up casually, flipped through two pages, and immediately smiled.

Yi An's eyes darkened as she watched her impolite actions.

What are you doing here again?

Lin Hui smiled and waved the documents in her hand. "Come to work! I knew you hadn't decided on a character designer yet, so I'm here to help you out of your predicament."

Before Yi An could answer, she continued, "I graduated from a prestigious international design university and have won countless awards. Surely I'm not good enough for this job?"

She deliberately asked the question in order to leave Yi'an no room for refusal.

Lin Hui is also a well-known character designer in China. In terms of both qualifications and abilities, she is the best candidate among domestic designers this time.

Zhao Bo had also considered contacting her, since besides Qiong, she was the only other one left.

Unfortunately, his boss, Mr. Yi, had a minor grudge against Lin Hui and declared that he would not use her, no matter who he employed.

Now that Lin Hui has taken the initiative, it is a good opportunity. However, before Zhao Bo could give Yi An a meaningful look, Yi An spoke first.

"The selection has been finalized."

Yi'an leaned back in her chair and said this without expression, her refusal quite obvious.

Lin Hui was somewhat surprised by these words.

She threw down the documents, braced herself on the table with both hands, and asked urgently, "Who is it?"

in the country, the only person who can rival her is someone who hasn't even been born yet.

She wanted to hear who this person was.

Looking at her confident expression, Yi An twitched the corners of her mouth, revealing a mocking smile.

“Qiong”.

With just one simple word, Lin Hui's confidence and pride were utterly trampled underfoot.

Qiong?!

They actually found Joan?!
