Chapter 101: 101: The Pit She Dug for Me_1

Translator: 549690339

Having lived twice, I have abundant experience in understanding people.

One can see into someone’s heart through their eyes.

Furthermore, having spent time with Ye Mengyan, I was somewhat familiar with her. There was a clear hint of ulterior motives in her eyes.

Suddenly, I felt a sense of alertness. Was she planning to make me the designer, and then take my place?

Subconsciously, I grew wary…

“Miss Ye overestimates me, I do not possess such talent.”

But Gu Yuanzhou did not think the same way. He stared at the wedding dress for a long while,

“I believe she is right, you should enter the competition!”

I wasn’t interested in attracting attention,

“President Gu, there are many talented people in Zhenyi Company, it’s not my turn!”

“It’s settled then!”

Gu Yuanzhou didn’t leave me any room for negotiation.

After Gu Yuanzhou left, I turned to Ye Mengyan,

“It seems like you’ve found some trouble for me!”

Ye Mengyan laughed,

“Xiaoyun, you’re overthinking, it’s not that complicated. You already have the design, just finish the dress and participate in the competition. This is the perfect opportunity! Your talent should not be buried, and I’m doing this for your own good!”

I patted her on the shoulder,

“Ye Mengyan, I think you’re smart! But it’s better not to be too clever.”

The smile on Ye Mengyan’s face froze for a moment.

In fact, making the dress wasn’t challenging for me. I just didn’t like the feeling of being used.

However, I was now curious about what tricks Ye Mengyan had up her sleeve.

I spent three days, staying up late each night to finish the dress.

After completing it, I hung the dress under the light, it emitted a soft and pure glow. The exquisite design at the hem was particularly pleasing to the eye…

I felt achieved looking at the dress I made with my own hands.

But for some reason, the more I looked at it, the more familiar it became.

Nevertheless, I couldn’t remember where I had seen it before and didn’t have time to ponder it further.

Gu Yuanzhou had already registered me for the competition.

Due to the tight schedule, I hadn’t told Wenya and Ding Yinuo.

Wenya had called me several times but after hearing how busy I was, she didn’t disturb me anymore.

On the other hand, Ding Yinuo kept sending me texts every day…

I didn’t pay much attention to him.

Sometimes, I would think about that kiss on the terrace.

For some reason, it made me feel frustrated and uneasy.

When I sent the dress to the competition, I didn’t have much confidence.

After all, I had been out of the design industry for more than a decade, without practice in handcrafts, my skills were far from perfect.

As time progressed, industries developed, I wondered if I was left behind by the times.

But to my surprise,

I won the award!

The award letter was delivered to me by Gu Yuanzhou himself.

That day, he stood in front of me, staring at me for a long while,

“Do you know? You look a lot like my wife now!”

“You mean appearance?”

“No, not just appearance, everything else too…”

Gu Yuanzhou circled me, his words seemed probing, yet threatening.

I looked at the award for a long time.

“President Gu, I represented the company in the competition, if this is my glory, then it is also the company’s.”

Gu Yuanzhou nodded, “I’ve decided, starting today, you’ll be transferred to the design department … as the director. Do you have any objections?”

His decisions were notices rather than discussions.

I understood this well enough and could only nod.

“I’m just worried I can’t take the responsibility, and I’ll let you down, President Gu.”

Gu Yuanzhou looked at me intently, then gave a faint laugh,

“I value you! Mengyan was right, with your talent, letting you be a mere secretary is a waste. Giving you a new position, you can shine even brighter. Remember, I don’t like the word disappointment, do your best.”

Because of my award, Gu Yuanzhou was very pleased.

He unusually invited all the staff to have a meal together.

This was probably the first time I had dinner with all the employees upon returning to the company.

During the banquet, many employees came up to Gu Yuanzhou to toast him,

“President Gu, with Song Xiaoyun as our company’s top designer, our products will surely enter international markets.”

“President Gu, you are a talent spotter! Song Xiaoyun’s success is all thanks to your discovery and promotion!”

After a few drinks, Gu Yuanzhou squinted at me.

His gaze was somewhat meaningful.

After several rounds of drinks, I left the banquet early.

Because my phone was about to explode from Wenya’s calls.

I took my phone and walked out of the hotel. Wenya was shouting at me from the other side of the phone,

“Why the hell have you not answered Ding Yinuo’s calls for so many days?”

“He’s an adult, I’m not obliged to accompany him every day, right?”

“He said he has urgent matters!”

I thought, Ding Yinuo must be trying to contact me about what happened on the terrace?

So I procrastinated once again,

“I’m very busy today, maybe tomorrow!”

“Sigh, can you be any less cruel to Yinuo! Just like that, you decided not to answer his calls, fine, fine, just remember to meet him tomorrow.”

When I returned to the Maple Mansion that night,

Ye Mengyan was still smiling at me.

“Congratulations, Xiaoyun! Look at you, you’re finally successful! Aren’t you supposed to thank me?”

I had a feeling that her smile was somewhat fake, but I couldn’t tell what was wrong.

The next morning,

Gu Yuanzhou praised me in front of the whole company and moved me to the design department…

Unexpectedly, that very afternoon, I was summoned to his office.

He handed me a lawsuit from the court.

Curiously, I asked, “President Gu, what is this?”

“See for yourself, what have you done?”

It was only then did I realize the deep hole Ye Mengyan had dug for me.

The suit was from a well-established British wedding dress company named Marian. They claimed that I plagiarized their work, and had sued me and Zhenyi Company together.

No wonder the dress looked familiar to me when I finished it …

This wedding dress was the one worn by a royal at their wedding a decade ago.

In a moment, I was about to become the laughingstock of the entire company!

Oh, not to mention facing a huge compensation!

Gu Yuanzhou looked at me with his back turned, “I gave you my utmost trust, yet you let me down! Song Xiaoyun, is your heart really with Zhenyi?”

Gu Yuanzhou’s words had a double meaning.

I knew, at this moment, I might have also lost Gu Yuanzhou’s trust.
