1218 This Girl Has Good Acting Skills

“Xi Xi, are you very curious about it?” Gu Zheng’s tone was teasing.

Back then, He Wenyin was only a child in her early 10s. Under He Wenxian’s instigation, she naturally had a good impression of Gu Zheng. This was not surprising.

However, He Wenyin’s words caused a ripple in Qiao Xi’s heart.

Could this girl be pretending to be innocent? If it was true, then He Wenyin’s acting skills were really good. Even she was deceived!

Although He Wenyin did not say it explicitly, her words meant that she knew everything. She thanked Qiao Xi for her reminder, but she did not want others to interfere.

In that case, He Wenyin was not a brainless fool. There must be a reason why she was pretending to be like that. It seemed that the matter of her liking Gu Zheng was also fake.

Qiao Xi did not want to ask anymore. She would not be jealous of He Wenyin, but He Wenxian was a little difficult to deal with!

…

The next morning, at Gu Corporation.

As the chief designer of Liuli, Qiao Xi represented the company and worked with Gu Corporation, so she went to the company with Gu Zheng. This project was mainly about the cooperation between Gu Corporation and Liuli, but another company needed to participate in it as well.

Gu Corporation and Liuli were both top companies in the industry. It was a great thing to be able to work with these two companies. Hence, as soon as the news spread, more than 10 companies began to compete.

Qiao Xi did not care who Gu Zheng chose. He naturally had his own considerations. She was only in charge of designing. After she and the person in charge of Gu Corporation confirmed the direction of the design, she started to draw designs.

The employees of Gu Corporation might not like the pampered Mrs. Gu, but ever since they found out that she was Gu Shan, they admired her.

“Xi Xi, take a look and see if there’s anything wrong.” The designer of Gu Corporation handed her the design plan.

Qiao Xi had worked at Liuli for so many years and was famous internationally. The designers of Gu Corporation admired her very much, so they would ask for her permission before confirming the design draft.

“Miss He.” At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door. As soon as the designer saw who it was, he immediately went forward to welcome her and greeted her warmly.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes to look, and her expression instantly turned cold.

“Xi Xi, He Corporation is the partner in the bidding process. Miss He is the person in charge of He Corporation, and this is Miss He’s assistant, Mr. Wang,” the designer introduced. It was not strange for the partner to come to the company to take a look.

They were busy with the design drafts, so they naturally did not have time to pay attention to them. They only gave a brief introduction, thinking that He Wenxian would leave soon. However, the next second, He Wenxian said in surprise, “Mrs. Gu, you’re here too!”

He Wenxian, who was originally arrogant, immediately beamed when she saw Qiao Xi. She was wearing a business suit, and her chestnut curly hair was casually draped over her shoulders. She casually flipped her hair and looked very flirtatious.

He Wenxian walked up to Qiao Xi and said with a smile, “Mrs. Gu, what a coincidence! I actually bumped into you here. Yesterday, I went to Longwan Residential on short notice and didn’t have time to prepare a gift. Since we met today, can I treat you to a meal?

“Coincidentally, there’s a Western restaurant near the company. The desserts there are good. Shall we try them?”

Qiao Xi didn’t even raise her eyes as she replied coldly, “I’m sorry, but I’m very busy.”

He Wenxian was a little surprised. “Mrs. Gu, are you working here?”

The designer explained, “Xi Xi… Mrs. Gu is our chief designer. Miss He, didn’t you know?”

He Wenxian smiled meaningfully and glanced at the assistant beside her. Assistant Wang seemed to have received a signal and said in a low voice, “Miss, don’t forget what the chairman said. It’s better to tell them.”

He Wenxian hesitated and smiled helplessly. “It’s okay.”

Assistant Wang looked troubled. “But… before you came, the chairman specially instructed us to withdraw from the project if the jewelry collaboration between Liuli and Gu Corporation doesn’t achieve the desired effect.”

Although his voice was very soft, the people nearby could hear him clearly. Everyone’s complexions did not look too good. The He family meant that if they were not good enough, the He family would withdraw from the cooperation.

There were many companies competing this time, but He Group was undoubtedly a special existence. Everyone had heard about their past with the president. If He Group withdrew from the collaboration because of their ability, would they still be able to stay in Gu Corporation?

Everyone was flustered. He Wenxian smiled embarrassedly. Then, she turned around and reprimanded Assistant Wang, “Don’t talk nonsense. The designers of Gu Corporation must be very outstanding. Mrs. Gu is only here to help. It won’t affect the final product.”
