My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy - Chapter 235
Chapter 235: Chapter 235 Privacy_1
The collection of Hanfu designed by Jia Yuyan this time sold exceptionally well.
Being a person who values talent, I not only rewarded Jia Yuyan materially, but also promoted her to become the team leader of the design crew.
My recognition not only boosted her self-esteem but also earned her more respect within the company.
What is Ye Mengyan coming to see her for now?
Jia Yuyan did not go to see Ye Mengyan straight away, but turned around to ask for my opinion.
“Sister Song, I’ve refused Ye Mengyan three times! She calls me, sends me messages, even gets classmates to look for me… Should I meet her?”
Jia Yuyan is smart; she knows to respect my decisions in critical moments.
I like such women, who are aware of boundaries, express their gratitude, and don’t act as restless and worldly as Ye Mengyan.
Gu Yuanzhou must be blind to have chosen Ye Mengyan.
“Being colleagues and school fellows, you’ll see each other often. Go and see what she wants.”
“Okay!”
No sooner had Jia Yuyan stepped out of the office, than I leisurely followed her.
Not that I don’t trust Jia Yuyan, but I am worried that Ye Mengyan will play some tricks.
Indeed, as soon as I stood outside the door, I heard Ye Mengyan say to Jia Yuyan,
“President Gu said that as long as you are willing to join Zhenyi Company, we can offer you double your current salary! The best benefits the company can provide are all for you! Yuyan, we are classmates, would I deceive you?”
Jia Yuyan’s attitude was firm,
“Miss Song trusted me and gave me this job. Without her, I’d still be delivering parcels! One should repay kindness. I can’t betray her.”
I slightly raised the corner of my mouth; I had read her right indeed.
Jia Yuyan knows right from wrong.
Ye Mengyan, unwilling to give up, continued,
“Song Xiaoyun is a scammer, she tried to seduce President Gu at Zhenyi Company but failed. And now, as you see, she is seducing Manager Ding. He lacks Gu’s wisdom, and has been fooled. Song Xiaoyun won’t last long, Manager Ding will soon realize she’s a scammer, and by that time, you will also be implicated.”
Jia Yuyan laughed and refused her,
“Ye Mengyan, stop spreading rumours. I trust my instincts, Song Xiaoyun is not that type of person.”
Seeing Jia Yuyan remain unmoved, Ye Mengyan changed her approach.
“Ok! Yuyan, since you don’t want to leave Tianjiao Company, at least leave a way out for yourself! I have a plan, allowing you to stay at Tianjiao Company. Why not do me a favor?”
Right at this moment, my assistant came looking for me at the office.
Consequently, I had to step away from Jia Yuyan’s discussion to attend to the matter at hand.
By the time I finished up and turned my attention back to their meeting, Ye Mengyan had already left.
As it was almost time to leave work, Jia Yuyan came to find me and took the initiative to tell me about her conversation with Ye Mengyan.
“Miss Song, Ye Mengyan said that Zhenyi Company has now promoted her to the position of chief designer.”
As I took a sip from my cup of tea, I fell into deep thought and chuckled coldly. Gu Yuanzhou is truly inviting his own demise.
Fine!
If Zhenyi Company is slow in collapsing, then let it continue destroying itself!
“And then?”
“Ye Mengyan said that she plans to come out with a new product similar to our Hanfu… But, I refused her.”
“Don’t refuse her!”
Jia Yuyan sat up straight and looked at me,
“Miss Song, what do you mean?”
I smiled, “Since Ye Mengyan wants to become famous, why not just go along with her?”
Grasping my intention, Jia Yuyan nodded with determination.
“Alright, I’ll go along with her!”
The following days were hectic for me.
Because the new product was selling so well, many media outlets wanted to interview me, but I didn’t want to reveal too much about myself in public.
Consequently, I pushed Jia Yuyan into the limelight as the representative of our company.
She was younger and needed more opportunities to grow.
Jia Yuyan did not let me down, and in the upcoming national fashion competition, she won the first prize, gaining both fame and fortune.
The next afternoon, Gu Yuanzhou deliberately called me.
“Let’s meet. I think we need to have a good chat!”
“What, are you planning on selling Zhenyi Company? Name your price, and I’ll see if I can raise the money! After all, as long as Zhenyi Company still holds a bit of brand value, selling it now could make you some money!”
Infuriated by my sarcasm, Gu Yuanzhou retorted through gritted teeth.
“I’ve already told you, Zhenyi Company is my wife’s livelihood. I will never sell it.”
“Well, since you have no plans of selling Zhenyi Company, we have no reason to meet.”
“Come on! I found some of your secrets at your rental place! If you don’t want them to be made public, come and see me! Meet me at the Waterfront Restaurant, at nine o’clock tonight. I won’t wait if you’re late. It’s up to you whether you come!”
“What kind of secrets?”
“If you want to know, come and see for yourself!”
Seemingly running out of patience, he ended the call abruptly.
As soon as I hung up, I ran into Ding Yinuo.
He seemed to be in high spirits these days, “Ayun, have you finished your work?”
“Yeah, I’ve pretty much finished the tasks at hand… but I have something tonight, so I won’t be coming.”
“What’s the matter with tonight?”
“Manager Ding… you’re starting to interfere more and more! This seems to infringe upon my personal freedom!”
“No, you don’t have any freedom now! Ayun, all your time now belongs to me!”
“Manager Ding, we agreed that the engagement was just to appease your mother. And it seems… your mother’s condition has been improving quite a bit. Maybe we should lay this topic out.”
Ding Yinuo, who initially had both hands in his pockets, widened his eyes with tension.
“I was just joking! Of course, you’re free, it’s just that… people keep asking me where my wife is, so wanting to know your whereabouts is just natural!”
“Who asked you that? We haven’t gotten married, and you’re already calling me your wife?”
“Ah, Su Peisheng and the others. You know them; they call their girlfriends wives when they are just dating!”
“Ignore them! However, it’s true that I have things to do tonight!”
“Actually, it’s not a big deal. My mother just wanted me to bring you home for dinner! You’re engaged now, surely you can’t still be eating dinner outside?”
“Apologize to Auntie for me, we can do it next time!”
“Okay!”
Actually, I know that Ding Yinuo won’t make it difficult for me. He was just joking.
Perhaps it was because of the engagement that there was a subtle bond between him and me.
At exactly nine in the evening, I arrived at the Waterfront Restaurant.
Gu Yuanzhou had been waiting there for quite some time, his figure wrapped in darkness.
Even from several hundred meters away, I could feel his cold aura.
“Gu Yuanzhou! What kind of secret of mine do you have?”
