Fang Yuan awoke from her slumber with no knowledge of what had transpired during her nap. As she noticed that the car was nearing the company entrance, she promptly instructed, “Mu Qing, please pull over.”
“Of course, Miss Fang Yuan,” Mu Qing promptly replied.
Bo Yi leaned over and gently touched her cheek, remarking, “I’ll come to pick you up at noon.”
“Alright.” Fang Yuan exited the car and took a few steps. As she entered the company premises, she was greeted by a taunting voice.
“Well, well, isn’t this President Fang? Arriving in style, I see. That car must have cost a pretty penny,” taunted Zhao Quan, the speaker. Although he hadn’t caught the license plate number, he recognized the model and the prominent Rolls-Royce emblem.
“President Fang, I must say, I’m impressed by your taste in luxury cars given your age,” Zhao Quan added with deliberate deference.
Fang Yuan raised an eyebrow and responded icily, “President Zhao, do you have nothing better to do? Instead of working, you’re loitering at the company entrance enjoying the view?”
“I was waiting for a client and happened to chance upon President Fang!” Zhao Quan replied with a cheeky smile. “By the way, President Fang, is that your own car, or does it belong to your boyfriend?” Or perhaps some sugar daddy?
Fang Yuan retorted curtly, “Is that any of your business?” With that, she proceeded directly to the elevator. “Just focus on your work.”
Zhao Quan watched her retreating figure with disdainful thoughts. Wasn’t she merely relying on her looks to hold her current position? What was she acting so arrogantly for?
Upon reaching the 20th floor via the elevator, Fang Yuan encountered Wang Ning and Gu Panpan waiting for her outside her office.
“President Fang, Designer Gu has been patiently waiting for you,” Wang Ning informed her.
Fang Yuan settled into her office chair and inquired, “What’s on your mind?” She gazed at the young woman standing before her.
“President Fang, I’ve just completed my latest design. 1 was hoping for the privilege of receiving your valuable guidance,” Gu Panpan spoke with a touch of nervousness as she extended her design draft toward Fang Yuan. Uncertain if Fang Yuan would be willing to offer feedback, she awaited her response anxiously.
Observing Fang Yuan’s slight bewilderment, Gu Panpan quickly clarified, “During our last meeting, our department head presented my design draft to you. Following your input, my design has significantly improved!” In her heart, she held immense admiration for Fang Yuan’s talents, almost considering her a mentor.
Fang Yuan accepted the design draft and inquired, “What type of clothing are you aiming to design?”
This question ignited a spark in Gu Panpan’s eyes. “I aspire to create exceptional garments, much like my idol, Yanli. President Fang, are you familiar with Master Yanli?”
Fang Yuan was taken aback momentarily, then offered a faint smile. “I’ve heard of her.”
Gu Panpan’s enthusiasm surged. “She’s an extraordinarily gifted individual.
Her unique aesthetic and talent shine through in her creations!”
“Every garment and accessory she designs is flawless!”
“Each time 1 believe I’ve witnessed the pinnacle of her artistry, she astounds me with a new creation!”
“It’s as if her talent knows no bounds. Every new piece surpasses the last.”
“She truly is remarkable!”
Fang Yuan observed the girl before her, who was clearly a passionate fan of Yanli and couldn’t stop raving about her. With a smile, she inquired, “Is she truly that exceptional?”
“Absolutely!” Gu Panpan’s voice resonated with admiration. “Whenever her designs are unveiled, hordes of designers clamor to replicate them. Even many A-list designers draw inspiration from her creations.”
“Her work has been a boundless wellspring of inspiration for me. Equally, her journey has taught me that 1 mustn’t blindly chase trends; I must carve out my own design identity. So long as my creations exude beauty, 1 believe I can carve a niche for myself in the design industry!”
Gazing at Gu Panpan’s hopeful anticipation for the future, Fang Yuan picked up her pen and calmly suggested, “We can revise it like this…”
Under Fang Yuan’s expert guidance, over a dozen design drafts transformed into even more stunning iterations.
Gu Panpan was astounded. This was nothing short of amazing! In a short span of time, President Fang had pinpointed all the flaws in her drafts and proposed revisions. Garments that had previously seemed ordinary now exuded an air of top-tier luxury.
At that moment, Wang Ning’s voice echoed from outside the office door.
“President Zhao, you can’t enter…”
“A mere employee dares to obstruct me?” Zhao Quan, stationed outside the door, regarded Wang Ning with disdain. “You insignificant fellow, trying to be a roadblock!”
Without hesitation, he pushed open the office door.
Wang Ning offered an apologetic look and said, “I apologize, President Fang. I couldn’t prevent him…”
Zhao Quan strolled in with an air of arrogance. It was evident that he held little regard for anyone. He made a beeline for Fang Yuan. “I’m here on urgent business; that’s why I barged in unannounced. President Fang, you’re known for your graciousness. 1 don’t think you’d…”
Fang Yuan lifted her head, her gaze piercing the presumptuous face before her. She coldly interrupted him, “Don’t you know how to knock before entering?”
Zhao Quan stammered, “It’s an emergency, related to the company’s future development…”
