Chapter 466: Ups and Downs
Yan Nan smiled and said, "Then there should be very few things that can cause you to have emotional fluctuations."
Xiao Muzhen didn't answer. Just as the elevator door opened, she lowered her eyes and said, "Manager Yan, I'm going to work first."
Except for meal times, Xiao Muzhen stayed in his office all day long, drawing designs.
When it was almost time to get off work, Guo Zhenzhen suddenly came over.
"Xiao Design, our company's event is scheduled to be held a week earlier, so the design drawings need to be ready within this week. Does Xiao Design have any questions?"
Xiao Muzhen's expression was indifferent as he spoke word by word, "I can only complete two-thirds of the task this week. Mr. Guo, please find someone else to handle the remaining one-third."
Guo Zhenzhen didn't expect Xiao Muzhen to actually go along with it, and her face suddenly became a little ugly.
Yan Nan, who was standing by, quickly said, "Boss Guo, Xiao Sheji does have a lot of work to do this week. How about I send an assistant to help her share some of the workload?"
Guo Zhenzhen refused directly, "No, I'm interested in Xiao's design. Wouldn't asking someone else for help lower the overall quality?"
Yan Nan looked at Xiao Muzhen with an embarrassed look on his face, "Xiao Designer, do you think you can..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Muzhen interrupted him directly, "Sorry, I can't."
Upon hearing this, Guo Zhenzhen's expression changed, and she raised her voice and said, "I'll give you an extra 20% commission, as long as you can finish it within this week."
Xiao Muzhen glanced at her and said, "Mr. Guo, I said it's not possible this week, and it's not possible. I promised you now, but if it's not completed by then, it won't be that meaningful, right?"
Guo Zhenzhen fell silent, dissatisfaction in her eyes.
She originally wanted to use her work to prevent Xiao Muzhen from meeting Huo Yunting so that she could take advantage of the situation, but she didn't expect Xiao Muzhen to dare to reject her.
"Xiao Design, you should know that I am your client. You should try your best to meet the client's requirements."
Xiao Muzhen smiled slightly and said slowly, "That depends on whether it's reasonable or not. If it's not reasonable, how can I satisfy you?"
Guo Zhenzhen: “…”
Seeing that Guo Zhenzhen's face was so ugly that it couldn't be described, Yan Nan quickly said, "Boss Guo, let's go to my office to talk."
"good."
Guo Zhenzhen glanced at Xiao Muzhen coldly, then turned around and left with Yan Nan.
After get off work in the evening, Xiao Muzhen was about to leave when Yan Nan called him to the office.
"Xiao Design, Mr. Guo is a major client of Qingshang. You are Qingshang's designer now. Even if you are dissatisfied with her, you have to endure it."
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a while, then looked at Yan Nan and said, "Manager Yan, I really don't have time."
Although she could finish the design drawing by staying up late, Guo Zhenzhen was obviously deliberately making things difficult for her, and she would not agree.
Yan Nan sighed, "If we lose this big client, it will affect both you and me."
Seeing that he was indeed in a dilemma, Xiao Muzhen said slowly: "I can agree, but I have one condition."
"What conditions?"
"I will no longer accept orders from Guo's."
"That's absolutely not possible!"
Meeting Yan Nan's serious gaze, Xiao Muzhen realized that this request was impossible, so he simply changed his request.
"My commission increased by 50%."
If this request cannot be agreed, she can consider whether to continue working at Qingshang.
"That's fine. As long as you can finish the painting this week, I can apply for a 60% commission!"
Xiao Muzhen curled her lips and smiled, "With Manager Yan's words, I will definitely complete my work well."
“Keep working hard!”
She stood up and left Yan Nan's office, heading straight for the elevator.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Huo Yunting's car parked on the side of the road.
She walked over quickly, opened the car door, sat down, and asked quickly, "How is it? Did you find any results on the matter I asked you to investigate this morning?"
Huo Yunting's face darkened a bit, and he whispered, "No, the clues were cut off after we found the person who leaked the information. That person must be hiding very deeply, but I think it should be someone close to you."
"Yeah, I think so too, but I don't have anyone to suspect yet."
"News came from the police station that Ding Yue's lawyer released her on bail today."
Xiao Muzhen was not at all surprised by this. Ding Yue had only plagiarized and had not done anything worse. At most he would be detained for a few days and then have to pay some money.
"Well, I understand, but she probably doesn't have the face to stay in the capital anymore."
Huo Yunting raised his lips in a cold arc and said coldly: "I won't let her appear in front of you again."
"Well, but there's someone who's been appearing in front of me quite often lately."
"who?"
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow. "Miss Guo Zhenzhen, the eldest daughter of the Guo family, is also your bad luck lover. She is very hostile to me."
When mentioning Guo Zhenzhen, disgust flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes.
"Why does she appear in front of you?"
"Don't you know? Qingshang has a partnership with Guo Corporation, so she came to me."
"I'll help you with that."
Hearing this, Xiao Muzhen quickly said, "No, I can handle it myself. I just feel that Miss Guo really likes you, otherwise she wouldn't be so persistent, right?"
Hearing the sourness in Xiao Muzhen's tone, Huo Yunting grabbed her waist and kissed her on the lips.
"Unfortunately, I only like you."
Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, but he still said in a hypocritical tone: "I don't believe it."
"It seems that I need to prove myself."
"How do you want to prove..."
Before she could finish her words, she was kissed by Huo Yunting.
His kiss was so quick and fierce that Xiao Muzhen soon couldn't resist it anymore. She could only grab the shirt on his chest and let him do whatever he wanted.
After the kiss, Xiao Muzhen had exhausted most of her strength, and she lay in Huo Yunting's arms, as soft as a pool of water.
"Can you prove it now?"
Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but punch his chest and said unhappily, "Who asked you to prove it like this?"
"Hmm? It seems like you're not satisfied? Looks like I still need to prove myself!"
As he spoke, his lips pressed down again.
Xiao Muzhen quickly pushed him away and said breathlessly: "No need... no need to prove it, I feel it..."
"Really? Why do I feel like you're lying to me?"
Meeting Huo Yunting's serious gaze, Xiao Muzhen quickly said, "Really, really, I swear!"
"Okay then." A hint of disappointment flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes. He had thought he could ask for another kiss, but he didn't expect to fail.
Xiao Muzhen swallowed and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't pounce on her again.
"Let's go back. I have to work after dinner tonight."
Huo Yunting had originally planned to watch a movie with her tonight, but his face darkened when he heard this. "Does your company have so much work?"
Xiao Muzhen glanced at him unhappily, "If your suitor hadn't suddenly asked to advance the deadline for the order, I wouldn't be so busy!"
Huo Yunting's face suddenly became even uglier, and at the same time, he secretly made up his mind that he must find something for Guo to do recently, otherwise Guo Zhenzhen would seem bored and would just look for trouble!
