Chapter 57 Danger is coming!
"Sour and pedantic?" Fang Rou's eyes flashed with a vicious cold light. "I think you should go home and take a good look in the mirror. You country bumpkin dressed in cheap street vendor clothes, and you still have the nerve to criticize others? If I hadn't had something urgent to do, how could Sister Tang have hired a piece of trash like you?"
"Trash?" Su Mengxue sneered. It was the first time she heard someone talk about her like that. A sharp arc appeared at the corner of her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a creaking sound and saw the door of the room was pushed open. Tang Qing walked out with a sullen face.
Fang Rou saw Tang Qing's expression and a look of panic appeared on her face. She quickly stepped forward and explained, "Sister Tang, please listen to my explanation. Today I am actually..."
Tang Qing glanced at Fang Rou coldly, his eyes filled with undisguised annoyance. Before she could finish her words, he interrupted her harshly, "What explanation do you want? Explain that you were trying to rip me off by raising the price, but I didn't buy it, and your plan to take advantage of me has been thwarted? Or explain that you saw that I had found your successor, knew that you couldn't control me anymore, and so you came to me to beg for a chance again?"
Tang Qing had exposed Fang Rou's hidden thoughts. She lowered her head, a flicker of panic in her eyes. After gathering her emotions, she bit her lower lip, her eyes reddening as she spoke in a tearful voice, "Sister Tang, this is a huge misunderstanding! Please calm down and give me a chance to explain..."
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Tang Qing's arm, but before her fingertips touched her sleeve, Tang Qing shook her hand away in disgust. As Tang Qing's movements were a bit too big, she couldn't help but stagger half a step.
Seeing Tang Qing's ruthless treatment of her, tears welled up in her eyes and she choked with grievance, "Sister Tang, how many people have offered high prices to me in the past three years, and I rejected them all! How could you be so heartless and turn your back on me so suddenly?"
Hearing this, Tang Qing sneered contemptuously: "Since someone is willing to pay a high price to poach you, then why are you still staying here? I, Tang Qing, am too small to hold a big Buddha like you. From today on, don't let me see you here again."
She turned and walked into the room. Just as she lifted her leg, Fang Rou growled at her, "Sister Tang, if you give up on me today, you'll definitely regret it later. This woman was able to make clothes today because she drew inspiration from my drawings. What about future events? She's a country bumpkin, what kind of decent design can she come up with? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at in the future?"
Fang Rou's words made Tang Qing feel cold in her heart. It turned out that her usual well-behaved and sensible behavior was all fake. Fortunately, she discovered it not too late, otherwise she might be plotted against by this woman one day.
Her fingers couldn't help but clench tightly. If they weren't both women, she would definitely let her know the price of provoking her today!
Tang Qing took a deep breath, suppressing the rage that was welling up within her. She turned around, pointed at Su Mengxue, who was standing nearby, and said word by word, "Fang Rou, you keep calling her trash? But it's this very 'trash' that can make an ordinary second-grade glazed vase sell for a sky-high price, and can complete a design in just three hours that would take you half a month! If you call her trash, then what are you, an ungrateful and shameless person?"
Fang Rou's face turned pale as paper in an instant. Her lips trembled violently, and she explained in a panic: "Sister Tang, I...I..."
But she hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Tang Qing looked at her coldly and reminded her, "Fang Rou, I know you've become a little famous in the past two years, and your ambition has also increased. But don't forget, it was you who knelt on the ground and begged me to give you a bite to eat. I felt sorry for you, so I paid for you to go to Jiangbei Fashion College. It was because I gave you the opportunity to make mistakes time and time again that you are where you are today."
She paused and added, "Once people get carried away by success, their road will come to an end."
When Tang Qing turned around to walk back, she heard a muffled sound behind her. She turned around and saw Fang Rou had fallen heavily to the ground. She hugged her calves tightly with trembling hands and cried bitterly, "Sister Tang! I was wrong! Please don't abandon me. This time I really know I was wrong! Without you, I am nothing. Sister Tang, please give me another chance!"
"Let go!" Tang Qing tried to pull Fang Rou's hand, but she hugged her calf even tighter. Fang Rou looked up at her, crying and begging for mercy: "Sister Tang, I was instigated by a villain this time. I swear I will never have other thoughts again. Please give me one last chance!"
Tang Qing couldn't stand it any longer, and pushed her away with disgust. He strode into the room without looking back, and slammed the door shut to block out all the sounds.
Seeing Tang Qing leave so resolutely, Fang Rou lost all her strength in an instant. She fell to the ground in a mess, crying and shouting, "Sister Tang, please give me another chance, Sister Tang, I will definitely..."
Su Mengxue saw that she was completely different from the arrogant and domineering woman just now. She suddenly felt bored. She turned around and walked out a few steps. Suddenly, she heard a noise behind her. She turned around and saw Fang Rou rushing towards her like crazy. At the same time, she clearly saw a thick green light on Fang Rou's body.
Green light? She suddenly remembered that the man who hit the puppy to death that day also had a green light on his body, but it was much lighter than this color.
What did the green light mean? She was momentarily lost in thought.
Fang Rou grabbed her long hair, digging her nails deep into her scalp, and said to her viciously, "It's all your fault, bitch! If you hadn't suddenly intervened, how could Sister Tang not want me? I'll beat you to death, bitch!"
She endured the pain and grabbed Fang Rou's hair, pushing her against the wall, and said word by word:
"Why did Sister Tang choose me? Don't you know what's going on? Even if it's not me today, someone else will take your place in the future. The clothes you designed are just rags piled high with jewels, complicated and unoriginal. Clothes are meant to serve people, not to be worn as a burden. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
Fang Rou's face suddenly changed when she heard this. She seemed to be stimulated and let go of Su Mengxue's hair and instead grabbed her neck tightly.
Su Mengxue was strangled by her and couldn't breathe. She struggled with all her might and wanted to call for help but no sound came out. She grabbed Fang Rou's face with her hands and her nails quickly scratched several bloody marks on her face. But Fang Rou seemed not to feel the pain and instead pinched her neck tighter and tighter.
Fang Rou's eyes were filled with madness and hatred. She whispered with a ferocious expression, "Who says my design skills are bad? I'm obviously the best and most powerful fashion designer in Jiangbei. I'm going to strangle you to death right now. Let's see how you can keep talking nonsense!"
Su Mengxue's vision went dark, and just as her consciousness gradually blurred, she vaguely saw a figure rushing towards her.
