Chapter 382: Well-versed in Ancient and Modern Times
Xiao Muzhen remained silent for a long while before she looked at Huo Yunting and said, "You said before that if I don't fall in love with you again after three months, we'll automatically divorce and you won't pester me. Is that true?"
A look of disappointment flashed across Huo Yunting's eyes, and he nodded, "Yes, it's true."
"That's fine. I'll go back first."
"Since you're all here, let's have lunch together."
Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips and said, "No, I already ate before I came here."
She turned around and left. Just as she reached the door, Huo Yunting's low voice came from behind her.
"I'll pick you up tonight."
She paused, "Okay."
Huo Yunting didn't look away until Xiao Muzhen's back disappeared from his sight.
Xiao Muzhen returned to Qingshang and just stepped into the design department, he ran into Zhao Mingyue.
Zhao Mingyue sneered and said sarcastically, "Some people really treat the company as their own home. They come and go as they please. I've worked at Qingshang for so many years and never dared not to come to work early in the morning. Today really opened my eyes."
Xiao Muzhen stopped and looked at her coldly, "Zhao Mingyue, please speak properly, otherwise it will sound like a chicken being strangled by the neck, which is really unpleasant."
"Say that again?!"
Zhao Mingyue glared at her, her eyes full of anger.
Xiao Muzhen's expression was indifferent. "No matter how many times I say it, it's the same sentence."
"Haha, didn't you skip work all morning?! Did I say anything wrong about you? If you don't plan to do your job properly, just get out and leave the position to someone who needs it. Anyway, the Xiao family can afford to support you, right?"
"You're so compassionate, why don't I see you on the list of annual charity donations?"
Zhao Mingyue was choked and stared at Xiao Muzhen, saying, "Just wait!"
Xiao Muzhen smiled slightly, "It seems that you have forgotten the lesson you learned before. If you dare to do anything again, I'm afraid it won't be so easy next time."
Zhao Mingyue's face froze, and the hand holding the document trembled uncontrollably.
It was not until Xiao Muzhen had left for a long time that she suppressed the fear in her heart. At the same time, she hated Xiao Muzhen even more. She would not let Xiao Muzhen go!
Back in the office, Ding Yue immediately came in with a document, "Designer Xiao, this is the content of this morning's meeting. I have recorded it. Take a look."
Xiao Muzhen took the document and nodded, "I understand. Thank you for your hard work."
She put the documents aside and saw that Ding Yue had not left yet. She looked up at her and asked, "Anything else?"
Ding Yue hesitated for a few seconds, then gritted her teeth and said, "Designer Xiao, I heard there's a fashion show next month. Manager Yan asked each designer to create a series of outfits, and then select the most suitable one and hand it over to Party A..."
Seeing the faint expectation in her eyes, Xiao Muzhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want to participate too?"
"Well, even though I know the chances of getting selected are slim... I still want to give it a try..."
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a few seconds, then pulled out a document and handed it to her. "Go and prepare it. Submit the design drawings to me within a week. However, this incident cannot affect the design work of Qingshang's main clothing next season."
Ding Yue's eyes flashed with surprise, and she excitedly hugged the document in her arms, "I promise it won't affect my work!"
"Well, go ahead."
"good."
Ding Yue smiled and turned to walk out, thinking that Xiao Muzhen was indeed not unwilling to give her subordinates opportunities as Zhao Mingyue said. Compared with Zhang Qian, she was much luckier.
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
In a high-end cafe in Beijing, Bai Xue Ning and Chi Xuan sat opposite each other.
Seeing Chi Xuan's face that was 90% similar to Xiao Muzhen, Bai Xue Ning couldn't help but feel contempt in her heart.
Even if she made herself look like Xiao Muzhen, Chi Xuan still couldn't get into Huo Yunting's bed. Now that the real owner is back, Huo Yunting will ignore her even less.
"Xuanxuan, what happened to your sister? I asked someone to check, and she seems to be the eldest daughter of the Xiao family now. Has she been adopted by the Xiao family?!"
If Xiao Muzhen really became the adopted daughter of the Xiao family, then she would have to think twice before taking action against her.
A hint of gloom flashed across Chi Xuan's eyes, and the fingers holding the coffee turned faintly white.
"Well, I don't know what kind of luck my sister had, but she actually became a member of the Xiao family and even changed her last name."
Bai Xue Ning's heart sank and her expression became extremely ugly.
Suddenly, she held Chi Xuan's hand and sighed, "You've been with Huo Yunting for three years, and he never agreed to let you into the Huo family. Now that Chi Muzhen is back, do you have even less chance?"
Chi Xuan's face turned pale. She pulled her hand back and lowered her eyes, saying, "I won't let her take away everything that belongs to me so easily."
Bai Xuening looked at her with a hint of sympathy. "But what bargaining chips do you have to compete with Chi Muzhen? Huo Yunting's mind is not on you at all."
Chi Xuan curled her lips into a cold smile and said word by word, "The person who will stay with him in the end must be me!"
"Have you figured out a solution? Do you need my help?"
Seeing the urgency in Bai Xuening's eyes, Chi Xuan smiled meaningfully, "No need, I can do it on my own. Did you meet me today just to find out about Xiao Muzhen?"
Ever since Bai Xue Ning hooked up with the Su family, her career has been on the rise. She was hailed as a movie queen and her standards have also become higher. She has never been in contact with Chi Xuan in the past three years.
Chi Xuan is not stupid either. Bai Xue Ning took the initiative to find her, and her purpose must be to use her to deal with Xiao Muzhen.
Bai Xue Ning smiled and said, "Xuan Xuan, although we have had less contact in recent years, in my heart, you will always be my best friend, and I hope you are doing well."
"Xue Ning, you don't have to say such polite words. If you want to use me to deal with Xiao Muzhen, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."
Bai Xuening's face froze, and then she looked at her with a hurt expression, "Xuanxuan, am I this kind of person in your heart?"
"I don't care whether you are that kind of person or not, but if you want to use me to deal with Xiao Muzhen, then you have found the wrong person."
After saying that, Chi Xuan stood up and left.
Bai Xue Ning was about to catch up when the phone on the table rang.
"Miss Bai, Master Su wants to see you."
An hour later.
As soon as Bai Xue Ning pushed open the door of the presidential suite, she was slapped in the face and almost fell to the ground.
She quickly held onto the wall and looked up at the man in front of her with disbelief.
"Master Su, why did you hit me?"
A few steps in front of her, a man in a royal blue suit looked at her expressionlessly, his narrow fox eyes filled with coldness.
"How dare you ask me why? I know everything that happened on the set today. How dare you show off your power in public using my name? I think you're tired of living!"
