She counseled, "You said, 'Originally, it was a team's responsibility,' but the truth is, the winning design was created by Xia Xi alone. Her design style is unique and her concepts are profound, making it difficult for others to participate, so she had to complete it alone. She had such a heavy workload, yet she never complained about it. Yet, you complained that she was doing too much."
She had previously harbored prejudices against Xia Xi, believing she had no talent for relying on connections to land a job at the company, and that this was unfair to other hard-working individuals. She had even searched online for Xia Xi's work, but couldn't find anything impressive, further solidifying her belief that she was merely a beautiful woman with nothing to show for it.
After the competition, she finally saw Xia Xi's strength clearly. The fact that she could stand out from so many large and small design companies by herself was enough to prove that she was an excellent person.
She was convinced by Xia Xi.
Once when they were having dinner together, she asked Xia Xi about her works. Xia Xi said that she often changed her signature, so it was normal that she could not find her works on the Internet.
Gao Ge didn't quite understand her behavior. As a designer, what she wanted was to be famous in the industry. How could she accumulate fame if she kept changing her name?
Xia Xi just smiled at the time and didn't explain too much.
Gao Ge reminded Yu Xiaoxiao: "Don't forget, Xia Xi is one of the partners of the company, but it is President Lu who is in charge of the management on the surface." This matter is no longer a secret in the company, everyone knows it.

Gao Ge: "Maybe the client specifically asked her to design it."
"She could have said she didn't have time and recommended another designer." Yu Xiaoxiao curled her lips slightly. "After all, she's just too competitive. The Jingyu Garden project is so important, how could she be distracted?"
Gao Ge corrected her seriously: "You can't have such thoughts."
"I know, I just felt a little bit dissatisfied for a moment..." Yu Xiaoxiao didn't know how to describe her feelings. She paused and looked awkward.
"Okay, if you have nothing else, you can go and do your own thing." Gao Ge waved his hand.
Yu Xiaoxiao left the office and happened to run into Huang Shiyu humming a song as he walked to the bathroom. Xia Xi was so high-spirited that even Huang Shiyu, her assistant, seemed to be getting cocky, even though she had joined the company much later than Xia Xi.
Yu Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of annoyance and lowered her eyes, still thinking about Mrs. Li's private estate project.
So what if the contract was signed? Xia Xi couldn't produce the manuscript for a while, which meant there were still variables.
