Chapter 458: All corners of the world
A hint of doubt flashed across Yan Nan's eyes, and he nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Ding Yue hesitated for a few seconds and said slowly, "Manager Yan, can you take me with you? I want to meet more people, which will make it easier to conduct business in the future."
Yan Nan stared at her, his eyes full of scrutiny.
Being stared at by him with a serious gaze, Ding Yue felt a little nervous unconsciously and clenched her hands into fists.
After more than a minute, Yan Nan smiled and said, "Sure, but before you go, I have a question for you."
"What's the question?" Ding Yue's face was full of smiles. As long as she could attend the banquet, she would be willing to answer not just one but ten questions.
"Did Xiao Design really plagiarize your design?"
Ding Yue's face froze, and she quickly said, "I think it's just similar, not plagiarism... But we still have to see what the company says. I believe the company will give a fair result."
Yan Nan raised an eyebrow. "Are you saying that if the company determines that Xiao Design did not plagiarize, it would be unfair?"
"I didn't say that. I will accept whatever result the company gives me."
Yan Nan's eyes flashed with mockery, and he spoke word by word, "It's normal to have ambition, but if desire outweighs ambition, you will end up in an irretrievable situation."
Ding Yue bit her lower lip and said, "I don't know what Manager Yan is talking about."
"I don't know, let's go."
Seeing that Yan Nan had no intention of pursuing the matter further, Ding Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Yan Nan doesn't have any good feelings towards Xiao Muzhen, otherwise he wouldn't have told me all this.
When the two arrived at the banquet hall, Yan Nan said calmly, "Designer Ding, I have something else to do. You can't afford to offend anyone at this banquet. Whether you can please a few powerful people depends on you."
"Okay, thank you, Manager Yan."
After Yan Nan left, Ding Yue's eyes wandered around the banquet hall and soon saw Huo Yunting.
A hint of shyness flashed in her eyes. She lowered her head to adjust the hem of her skirt, picked up a glass of wine, put the powder she had carefully prepared in it, and walked over.
From the first time she saw Huo Yunting, she fell in love with him at first sight. Before, she was very inferior and didn't dare to get close to him, but now she is on an equal footing with Xiao Muzhen, and he should look at her with admiration.
Huo Yunting had just finished talking to a client and looked down at his phone impatiently. When he was about to go back, a female voice sounded behind him.
"Hello, Mr. Huo, I'm Ding Yue, the designer of Qingshang."
Huo Yunting turned his head and took a look, and immediately recognized that this was the woman who had dinner with Xiao Muzhen last time.
His expression was cold, "What's the matter?"
If it weren't for Xiao Muzhen, he would have ignored her.
Noticing Huo Yunting's indifference, Ding Yue's face felt a little embarrassed, but she still managed to maintain a smile.
"Nothing special... I just wanted to come over and give you a drink..."
Huo Yunting sneered and said mercilessly: "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of toasting me?"
He had seen countless women, and the one in front of him was exactly the same as those who were attracted by his power and wanted to get rich overnight.
"Mr. Huo... Mr. Huo, I just remembered that you sent me home before... I came here specially to thank you... I don't mean anything else..."
Huo Yunting's expression was icy. "Did I say you had other intentions? Perhaps you have some dirty thoughts in your mind, so you misunderstood what I meant."
Ding Yue's face was pale and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Huo Yunting with an extremely aggrieved and pitiful look.
Huo Yunting was too lazy to look any further. Just as he turned around and was about to leave, Ke Ning came over hurriedly.
"Boss Huo, look at this!"
After taking the phone and looking at it for a while, Huo Yunting's expression suddenly became extremely ugly, and a cold aura emanated from his body.
Ding Yue subconsciously took a step back, and then saw Huo Yunting looking up at her coldly.
"Your name is Ding Yue, right?"
Ding Yue's heart trembled, and the hand holding the wine glass turned pale, but he still forced himself to remain calm and said, "Yes... I am..."
"hehe!"
Huo Yunting stared at her with a cold and captivating gaze, as if he wanted to cut her into pieces. Ding Yue felt a surge of fear in her heart.
"You were the one who said online that Xiao Muzhen plagiarized your design?"
Ding Yue's eyes flashed with guilt, and she quickly refuted, "No... I didn't. The company discovered that Xiao Design's design drawings were very similar to mine, and they think Xiao Design plagiarized. They are now investigating the matter. I never said that Xiao Design plagiarized..."
Huo Yunting looked at her coldly, "Did she plagiarize you, or did you plagiarize her?"
He was very clear about Xiao Muzhen's level and it was impossible for her to plagiarize others. Moreover, this woman had been her assistant, so it was very easy for her to steal her design drawings.
Thinking of this, a hint of disgust flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes.
"I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is true that you plagiarized her and are throwing dirty water on her, I will make you regret coming into this world!"
Ding Yue shuddered unconsciously, and a wave of fear surged in her heart.
She originally thought that with her looks, Huo Yunting would be interested in her. After all, in her opinion, there is no man who doesn't cheat.
Unexpectedly, Huo Yunting not only treated her coldly, but also wanted to vent his anger for Xiao Muzhen.
She lowered her eyes, the jealousy and hatred in them growing deeper and deeper. If Xiao Muzhen could be with Huo Yunting, why couldn't she?!
The more Ding Yue thought about it, the more distorted his mind became.
until……
"Ding Sheji, why are you standing here alone?"
Ding Yue was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Yan Nan who was looking at her worriedly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Manager Yan..."
"If you don't dare to talk to others, I will take you to meet others."
Ding Yue was a little bit unbelievable, and her eyes widened unconsciously.
"Really?"
"Of course, you are a designer under me now, so it would be beneficial for me to introduce you to more people."
Next, Yan Nan took Ding Yue to meet many people. By the end of the banquet, she already had the contact information of many socialite wives in her mobile phone.
After leaving the banquet hall, Yan Nan offered to take Ding Yue back.
On the way, Ding Yue expressed his gratitude.
Yan Nan smiled and said softly, "It's okay, but I seemed to have seen you talking to President Huo before. Do you know him?"
When mentioning Huo Yunting, Ding Yue's eyes flashed with disappointment, and then she lowered her eyes and said, "I don't really know him, I just met him once before."
"The Huo family may also become a major client of Qingshang. You can get in touch with Mr. Huo more often."
Hearing Yan Nan's encouragement, Ding Yue smiled self-deprecatingly, "Forget it, Mr. Huo's attitude towards me tonight was very bad."
And now that he is on Xiao Muzhen's side, he will only hate her even more.
Thinking of this, Ding Yue felt a sudden pain in her heart and her eyes turned red unconsciously.
