Chapter 78: Wicked Conduct
Song Wei returned to S City. As soon as she entered the house, Uncle Dong brought her invitation letters handed out by various families recently.
Most of them were gatherings for wealthy married ladies or someone’s birthday, so she wasn’t interested.
Finally, she found an invitation to a PARADISES meeting at the bottom of the pile, inviting her to attend the design seminar for the next season.
Song Wei had signed a non-interference agreement with the Song Group before. Coupled with Yan Zhixing and Lin Shuangshuang’s betrayal, PARADISES had—in fact—already broken away from her for a long time.
This invitation letter was definitely Yan Zhixing’s test.
Uncle Dong saw that Song Wei was lost in thought as she looked at the invitation. He said somewhat awkwardly, “Madam, I’ve already rejected this in Young Master’s name. You don’t have to go.”
However, Song Wei closed the invitation. “Go. I have to go. Lest it seems like I’m afraid of him.”
Clearly, Yan Zhixing was already suspecting her involvement in Sky Palace. If she were to avoid it now, it would seem like she had a guilty conscience.
With her personality, she would have to confront him head-on no matter what.
Uncle Dong wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he said, “But I’m worried that Young Master will mind…”
“…”
“He’s always been concerned about anything to do with PARADISES,” Uncle Dong tried hard to figure out how to phrase his words well.
“Uncle Dong, you don’t have to be so tactful,” Song Wei said frankly instead. “I know what you’re worried about. Aren’t you afraid that Yan Zhixing and I will rekindle our relationship?”
Uncle Dong hurriedly said, “I-I didn’t mean that…”
“You don’t have to worry. Yan Zhixing instructed PARADISES to plagiarize my design and even stole my spokesperson. I just want to go and settle this score with him.”
Uncle Dong finally heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. “All right, I’ll explain it clearly to Young Master.”
Song Wei removed Song Xiaocao’s makeup and changed into a professional luxury suit. Then, she applied seductive and intimidating red lipstick.
After that, she got into Jiang Mingxu’s luxury car in a pair of seven-centimeter high heels and arrived at PARADISES’ headquarters at the appointed time in the invitation letter.
She had not been here for a long time.
At the time she announced her retirement, she had truly wanted to renounce everything to fulfill Yan Zhixing’s wish.
After her marriage, she continued to live under Jiang Mingxu’s evil clutches, too. She did not dare to come back easily before their bet was complete.
As a result, in the short span of half a year, Yan Zhixing had replaced all of her former subordinates. Other than the employees at the grassroots level, almost everyone in the company had been replaced.
Yan Zhixing was really ruthless.
In her previous life, she had always thought that he had taken over PARADISES to continue her dream.
After her rebirth, she realized that she had been too naive. Yan Zhixing had been working hard the whole time to wash away the traces she had left behind for PARADISES.
He was going to claim PARADISES as his own.
Song Wei’s appearance caused quite a stir in the company.
Some employees gathered together and looked at Song Wei as they whispered, “Why is President Song here? The situation at the charity banquet previously became so unpleasant…”
“Exactly. That video was really exciting. I’m still reminiscing about it to this day.”
“Tsk, tsk, Design Director Lin… probably hates her to death.”
“You’re still calling her Design Director Lin? I think it won’t be long before Lin Shuangshuang is swept out of the company. Ever since the charity banquet, President Yan forbade her from even touching the design drawings.”
“Of course. If it wasn’t for her pestering him… this major scandal would have been enough for her to disappear from the company, right?”
The moment the employee finished speaking, a cup of boiling hot coffee splashed onto her face!
“Ah!!!” A blood-curdling scream resounded through the office, and the employee—who had been splashed in the face—turned red.
Lin Shuangshuang was holding an empty coffee cup in her hand as she apologized innocently, “Oh, my god, I’m so sorry. I accidentally tripped just now. Are you all right?”
The employee held onto her face, which had been scalded red. She was angry but did not dare to say anything. She took a step back in fear. “No, I-I’m fine.”
Lin Shuangshuang took another step forward. The smile on her lips had completely lost the feeling of innocence of the past. To others, it felt terrifying. “Since you’re fine, then continue working. The company won’t hold onto people who gossip idly all day. Coincidentally, there are just too many people in your team. Who should we kick out?”
The employee hurriedly apologized, “Director Lin, I won’t do it again. I was just spouting nonsense earlier.”
Lin Shuangshuang nodded in satisfaction and stopped pretending altogether. The smile at the corner of her lips turned a few degrees nastier. “I hope you guys can recognize your position in the company. No matter what happens to me, you guys are all unworthy to even carry my shoes.”
Then, she lifted her leg and used the thin heel of her stilettos to step on the employee’s instep, grinding it forcefully.
The staff was in pain but did not even dare to scream.
