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.
