Chapter 97: Showing Off One's Skills in Front of an Expert
"Sister-in-law, I haven't told you what it is."
Chi Muzhen pursed her lips slightly and said, "No matter what it is, I probably can't help. Mr. Liang, please find someone else."
After divorcing Huo Yunting, she had no intention of having any contact with his circle anymore.
The two walked into the villa, and after closing the door, Zhen Yan finally couldn't help but complain.
"This Liang Zixuan is like a dog-skin plaster. I'm so annoyed! He came to me several times today, always trying to get me to be the spokesperson for his company's new product! If I couldn't afford to offend him, I would have speared him away with a fork long ago!"
Hearing Zhen Yan describe Liang Zixuan as a dog-skin plaster, Chi Muzhen couldn't help but laugh.
Liang Zixuan has a good-looking face and changes girlfriends frequently. He also boasts that he has walked through a sea of beauties without getting a single leaf on him. I wonder what his expression would be if he knew that Zhen Yan despised him so much.
"It doesn't take long to get an endorsement shot. Why not take advantage of the free money? Think of it as adding to your pension."
Zhen Yan looked at her with an indescribable expression, "Do you know what his company's new product is?"
"What?"
"condom."
"puff……"
Chi Muzhen spat out a mouthful of water and looked at Zhen Yan in disbelief, "Are you sure there's nothing wrong with his brain?"
"If I wasn't afraid that he would invest in a movie I'm shooting in the future, I would really give him two hundred yuan today to see a psychiatrist for a checkup."
After chatting for a few sentences, the two started to eat dinner. Zhen Yan's mother is a chef, so her cooking skills are also good. In comparison, the food cooked by Chi Muzhen is just edible.
Chi Muzhen finished two bowls of rice, and after cleaning up the dishes and putting them into the dishwasher with Zhen Yan, he lay down on the sofa like Ge You.
Zhen Yan came over and pulled her, "Don't lie down, we just finished eating and need to go out for a walk, let's go for a walk."
"good."
When the two walked out the door, Liang Zixuan had already left.
I walked along the street in the villa and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening when I came back.
Chi Muzhen went upstairs to take a shower and was about to go to the study to deal with work when she received a message from Huo Yunting.
I'll pick you up tomorrow.
The six words without a beginning or an end made Chi Muzhen frown.
She recalled that she probably didn't need to meet Huo Yunting in the near future, so she simply didn't reply and went straight to the study to work.
At this moment, in the 8888VIP box of Chengdu's largest nightclub.
Several people were playing mahjong, but Huo Yunting and Liang Zixuan were obviously absent-minded.
After winning several rounds in a row, Qi Yunzhe on the opposite side pushed his cards aside and said, "I'm not going to play anymore. You all seem to have lost your souls. You don't feel any sense of accomplishment from winning."
Huo Yunting picked up his phone and stood up, "I'm going out for a cigarette."
Qi Yunzhe glanced at him and jokingly said, "Since just now, you have checked your phone no less than twenty times. Are you waiting for news from Chi Xuan?"
A hint of indifference flashed across Huo Yunting's eyes, and he said calmly, "No."
After leaving the box, Huo Yunting walked to the end of the corridor and opened WeChat. The interface was still stuck on the message he sent to Chi Muzhen an hour ago. She had not replied yet.
Huo Yunting felt a little irritated unconsciously, and suddenly regretted letting her leave so easily before.
He hadn't slept well since moving out of Shengjing. He wasn't used to not seeing her in the morning before going to work, nor was he used to the darkness in the room that greeted him when he got home from get off work every day.
"What's up?"
It was not until an indifferent voice came from the phone that Huo Yunting realized that he had dialed her number without knowing when.
Not getting a response from Huo Yunting, Chi Muzhen frowned and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."
When she was about to hang up the phone, Huo Yunting's cold voice came from the other side.
"Didn't you see the message I sent you just now?"
Chi Muzhen paused for two seconds, "I see."
"Why not reply?"
"I thought you sent it by mistake."
“…”
Chi Muzhen pursed her lips and said slowly: "I've been busy with work these days and haven't had time to visit grandma. I'll go with you next time."
The more Huo Yunting listened, the more he felt something was wrong. "When did I say I was going to see grandma?"
"Why are you texting me if you're not going to see grandma?"
Huo Yunting gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Chi Xuan didn't inform you?"
"What notification?"
Suddenly realizing that he was probably talking about Chi Zhen inviting him to dinner, Chi Muzhen couldn't help but pursed his lips.
"Mr. Huo, the Chi family invites you to dinner. I don't need to be there. It will only make the meal unpleasant."
None of the three members of the Chi family and Huo Yunting likes her, and she will only embarrass herself if she goes.
"Why don't you have to? Isn't your last name Chi?"
Chi Muzhen: "..."
She suspected that Huo Yunting made this call just to find fault with her.
"Mr. Huo, I'm really busy tomorrow and I don't have time..."
Before he could finish his words, Huo Yunting interrupted him, "No matter how busy you are, there's always time for dinner. I'll pick you up after get off work tomorrow night. That's it."
Before Chi Muzhen could say anything, Huo Yunting hung up the phone.
After hesitating for a while, Chi Muzhen edited a message and sent it, saying that she was really not free tomorrow.
However, Huo Yunting didn't know whether he didn't see it or what, so he didn't reply.
The next day, as soon as Chi Muzhen arrived at the company, he called Shen Tian to the office and handed her what he had found.
After reading it, Shen Tian's expression became extremely ugly.
She recruited Yang Yutong personally. She had always thought that Yang Yutong was down-to-earth and serious, but she didn't expect that she was the niece of the Rosewood brand director.
If there was no plagiarism incident, it would be fine, but these two things put together made her suspect that this was a conspiracy that had been planned since Yang Yutong came for the interview.
"There's not enough evidence to prove that Yang Yutong leaked the design draft, but if I'm not mistaken, when Yang Yutong uploaded the electronic version of the draft on MY, Rosewood already had an earlier 'draft'."
Chen Tian's face turned ugly. "I can't understand why she would use this method to plot against MY. Plagiarism is an intolerable shame for a designer!"
Chi Muzhen smiled and said, "You think it's a shame, but others may not think so."
Maybe if she helps with this matter, the benefits she gets will be enough for her to live a comfortable life.
"I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If Yang Yutong really did it, I will not let her go!"
"I'm already collecting evidence, so you don't need to make it public for now."
"good."
After Shen Tian left, Chi Muzhen opened WeChat and sent a message to the person with the black avatar.
Help me find someone.
After sending Yang Yutong's message, the other party replied with an OK gesture. Chi Muzhen put down the phone and started working.
This plagiarism incident may not be a bad thing for MY. She can use this incident to make a comeback.
Moreover, there was one thing she didn't tell Shen Tian.
Rosewood is a consignment brand and does not have many designers. Even if they really put the charge of plagiarism on MY, they will not get any benefits.
Therefore, it is very likely that this incident was a case of being used as a target by someone else, and the real mastermind behind it is hiding behind Guili.
As for who it was, she already had a suspicion in her mind.
Near the end of the workday, Xu Qing came to the office to find her.
"Boss Chi, the plagiarism incident has become a big deal. The company's downstairs is full of entertainment reporters. You'd better leave through the basement later."
Hearing this, Chi Muzhen stood up and walked to the window, and sure enough, she saw a lot of people gathered downstairs of MY.
A cold flash passed through her eyes, and she said indifferently, "Call the police."
