Rong Qi frowned as Ye Shaochen turned and angled the umbrella closer to her. Rong Qi, Qiyan Studios designs are truly impressive. The compet.i.tion hasnt even started, and Im already feeling the pressure.

At this, Rong Qi slightly curved her lips and said, Pressure brings motivation. Maybe this is an opportunity for you to surpa.s.s yourself?

Ye Shaochen chuckled, I do need to surpa.s.s myself. But before that, I need to find a reliable talent. Want to guess who Ive hired?

Rong Qi shook her head, disinterested and perplexed by his inquiry, The design industry is full of talents. How could I possibly guess?

Ye Shaochens brows lifted, finally showing a different expression, seemingly challenging. Havent you heard of Gu Yuyan? Initially, she was a staunch supporter of your husband.

Oh, so she switched sides? Rong Qi replied, Seems like Ms. Gus judgment isnt that great.

Ye Shaochen paused, momentarily at a loss for words. He searched Rong Qis face, trying to find any trace of jealousy or concern.

But after a while, he found nothing. He asked, Do you really not know what kind of relations.h.i.+p Ms. Gu had with your husband before?

Rong Qi looked at him amusedly and said, Why does it matter what their past relations.h.i.+p was? How does it concern me? I dont care.

Ye Shaochen leaned in closer, bending toward Rong Qi, You truly understand the bigger picture, so broad-minded! He tried to reach for her head, bending down to whisper in her ear.

Suddenly, as he leaned in, Rong Qi pulled her umbrella down sharply. Ye Shaochens face hit the rain-washed surface of the umbrella, recoiling a couple of steps back into the mud.

Annoyance flashed across Ye Shaochens face as he lost his balance, his umbrella blown into the artificial lake. Standing in the mud, drenched in rain, his face showed not only the embarra.s.sment but also the imprint of Rong Qis umbrella.

It was a comical yet pitiable sight.

Ye Shaochen stared at Rong Qi with a dark expression.

Rong Qi feigned surprise and said, Im sorry, Shaochen, my hand slipped. Are you alright?

With a smirk, she added, Maybe you should find shelter from the rain. Shall I call someone to bring you an umbrella?

As she turned to leave, she spun her umbrella, flinging droplets onto Ye Shaochens face, and walked away with light steps.

Ye Shaochen clenched his fists at his sides, watching Rong Qi leave with a brooding gaze. He snarled, Very well, Rong Qi, refuse my toast and you drink a forfeit! I wont let this go easily.

Meanwhile, in a private room at a bar. Ye Shaoxian was having a blast with his friends, playing dice and drinking. Just as they were getting into the spirit, one of his subordinates rushed in and whispered something in his ear.

Ye Shaoxian frowned, about to dismiss it when his friends egged him on, Whats the good news, Shaoxian? Share with us and lighten the mood!

Ye Shaoxian sneered, What good news could there be? Just someone sending me a woman, thats all..
