To think you can compete with her like this is simply overestimating yourself. The security guards who came up were easily dismissed by her with just a few words. After resting for a while, she went to the rehearsal room to be a mentor.
Lin Xinrou ran out of the company through the emergency exit, but bumped into Ye Lichuan, who had come looking for Gu Anran. He looked cold and suspicious of Lin Xinrou's sudden appearance.
Lin Xinrou, feeling delighted, was about to move forward when Ye Lichuan pushed her away.
"I'm warning you! You'd better not do anything that's beyond your capabilities, or I won't let you off easy." He then walked past her into the company.
Lin Xinrou's face was contorted with rage as she watched his retreating figure. Now that her plan had failed, she had to think of another way. As long as she defeated Gu Anran, everything she owned would be hers.
Back home, she began investigating everything about the show, her mind racing. With little time left before the show, she had to sabotage it before then.
Just as she was plotting how to ruin the show, her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was the owner of DianShang, whom she had been seeing recently. She impatiently tossed it aside, but then suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly answered it.
"Where have you been all day, my darling? I miss you so much."
"I'm going to make some money, are you interested in coming with me?"
The man on the other end of the phone was very perfunctory, but this did not affect Lin Xinrou's mood at all. She stared at the e-commerce boss with greedy and calculating eyes, but he did not notice.
After agreeing on a time, she leisurely began to prepare herself. When she arrived at the location, the man was already waiting for her, looking somewhat displeased, but she didn't care at all.
After giving her a kiss, she said, "I've been busy these past two days trying to make you rich."
"What's the way to get rich?"
"As you know, I'm a designer. My new work is about to be released, and I've already talked to professionals. It's a sure thing to make money."
The man was a businessman after all, and he was skeptical of her explanation. Lin Xinrou was not in a hurry. She took out a few more reports from her bag. The reports were well-made and looked like they would not lose money from any perspective.
Now the man was somewhat convinced, and besides, it was worth spending a fortune to win the heart of a beauty. He immediately transferred several million to her. Upon hearing the sound of the money arriving in the account, Lin Xinrou became much more proactive, which pleased the man greatly.
After spending the night with the man, Lin Xinrou left his house under the pretext of needing to attend to a business collaboration. She rushed to YR Company and used money to pave her way into the company.
Gu Anran, who was still busy checking the model results, was completely unaware of what was happening. Lin Xinrou walked in and came to a storage room that was not usually used.
There was a woman inside who saw her and scolded, "How dare you barge in like this? If we find out, we're all doomed."
Lin Xinrou was quite impatient with her cautiousness. "Alright, I know what I'm doing. Did you bring the things?"
The woman took out a bag and handed it to her, asking, "Is the money here?"
Lin Xinrou nodded and let him check his phone himself, while she looked at the design drawings. These would soon become the fruits of her labor, and her peak period would come again.
The woman, still wearing her work badge around her neck, finally relaxed when she saw the balance on her phone. "These are all the design drafts. The previous batch was all recalled because of its substandard quality."
"However, the design drafts have been seen by many people, so just in case, President Gu has made some improvements to the design. These are all the latest designs, and there are even costumes from the final designer."
Lin Xinrou nodded in satisfaction. She was pleasantly surprised that there were even performance costumes. She took out her phone and took pictures of all the design drafts. After confirming with the woman several times, they left the storeroom one after the other.
This area was filled with miscellaneous items, so there were no security cameras. As long as they were careful, they wouldn't find anything and wouldn't leave any trace. She put the drawings in her bag and went down the emergency staircase. Just as she was about to leave the company, she bumped into Gu Anran. She panicked for a moment, but then calmed down. Gu Anran must not know that the design drafts had been stolen.
Gu Anran had just returned from inspecting factories and wanted to find a reliable one, since the previous one had run into problems, causing their progress to be delayed.
The driver went to park the car. She and her secretary had just reached the company entrance when they saw Lin Xinrou there. She sensed something was wrong. She knew YR was her company, so why would she come here for no reason?
She stepped forward. "What are you looking at here for?"
Lin Xinrou scoffed, "What's wrong? The company's located here, so I'm not allowed to come?"
Gu Anran didn't want to get entangled with her any longer, but she couldn't find anything unusual from top to bottom. So what was she here for? She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Her intuition told her that she couldn't let her leave so easily.
"What? You want to illegally detain me? Then I'll call the police." Lin Xinrou took out her phone and pretended to call the police.
Gu Anran was in the wrong in this matter, so she could only let her leave. As she watched his back, she suddenly caught a glimpse of white paper peeking out of her bag.
She took two large steps to pull out the papers, but Lin Xinrou noticed and slashed down hard, causing Gu Anran to lose her strength. The papers scattered on the ground and were quickly picked up by Lin Xinrou.
Gu Anran immediately recognized that this was the company's new design draft, and now she understood that her purpose in coming to the company was actually to steal the design draft.
"Haven't you learned your lesson from Lin Xinrou before? Give me the design draft right now!"
"Lesson? Wasn't the lesson I learned thanks to you?" Lin Xinrou grinned, holding the manuscript in her hand with her thumb, as if a gust of wind would blow it onto the road and run over by a car.
"You want it? Then come and take it. At worst, I'll just throw it anywhere and let people see your design."
If the manuscript were leaked, all her preparations would be meaningless. Due to Lin Xinrou's dangerous threat, she dared not make any rash moves, and the two remained in a standoff.
The secretary beside her was also anxious but dared not step forward, so she could only stand there. Lin Xinrou continued to provoke her, "Why don't you come and get it? Come on!"
Gu Anran calmed herself down and observed her surroundings. There were steps a few steps behind Lin Xinrou. Even if she fell and didn't get hurt, it would make her lower her guard for a moment. She just needed to seize this opportunity.
After thinking for a moment, she slowly took two steps forward and, sure enough, saw Lin Xinrou take two steps back. She then suddenly stepped forward, and Lin Xinrou lost her footing and fell to the ground with a cry as she stepped back.
She quickly stepped forward and snatched the design draft. Lin Xinrou had twisted her ankle and was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up, so she could only glare at her.
"You've never changed your mind, and you've brought this upon yourself."
