Su Bei leaned forward and put down her coffee cup, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Does Director Xu have any other questions?"

Xu Weiya shook her head, pursed her lips and laughed: "Director Su is so frank, you surprised me."

Su Bei laughed lightly as she leaned back in her chair and looked Xu Weiya straight in the eyes: "Director Xu has only returned to the country in the past two years, there are some things that you just found out about, and the truth is that the jewelry industry in S City has already known about it since a long time ago, so Director Xu does not need to be bothered by the rumors outside that have spread too much."

Xu Weiya was startled, her hands unconsciously clasped together tightly on the table, she then laughed: "What Director Su says makes sense, but there are some rumors that, even if they are fake, as long as there are more people spreading them, they will become a reality. I think that Director Su will still have to think for the reputation of the company."

Su Bei raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Do you have any good advice for me? "

"Director Su is the leader of our company. Every day, we have to take care of everything else. This kind of design competition that consumes time and energy is better than leaving it for our company's designers. What do you think, Director Su?"

It was very obvious that Xu Weiya had heard from somewhere that she had plagiarized Su Xi's plan at J University and wanted to advise her to withdraw from the competition.

Xu Weiya mocked and ridiculed her superior, saying that she did not qualify for the tournament.

Su Bei smiled faintly, "Is Director Xu questioning my expertise?"

Xu Weiya slightly smiled, and officially answered, "I don't dare, Director Su being able to sit in her current position, naturally has abilities that ordinary people cannot match. I am only worried that Director Su may not have enough energy and thus, exhausted her body. "

"Haha, then I would like to thank Director Xu for his concern. "Speaking of which, there are a lot of people in the company who don't have a lot of education, but are good designers with plasticity. In terms of help, the company isn't part of the design department, so you help me organize a copy of the design department's internal information and everyone's best design work and send it to my mailbox. You don't need to worry about the competition anymore, Director Xu."

Xu Weiya's face became pale, her expression panicked, and asked: "Director Su, what do you mean by that?"

"Of course it's literal. Does Director Xu not understand?" There was an oppressive force in her tone, even though she wasn't angry.

Xu Weiya's words were stuck in her throat, her face flushed red, and the hands on the table slowly gathered into fists. She stood up and looked down at Su Bei from above.

"Director Su, you better think this through. If you remove my entry, there will be doubts and dissatisfaction everywhere in the company!"

"Don't worry, I will withdraw because you're not feeling well, the entire company will only feel that I'm compassionate to their employees. I know that Director Xu is very capable, but no matter how capable you are, you will always know that it's not a good idea to go against your superiors. I do not wish for the rumors outside to dirty the company.

Seeing Xu Weiya's green and red alternating face, Su Bei smiled and said, "You may leave, give me the personnel information of the design department by 6 o'clock."

"..."

It was only after he walked out of the office that the emotions he had been suppressing burst out.

Ah!" He stomped his feet forcefully, his entire body trembling in anger. He said through gritted teeth, "What qualifications does a woman who has been copying other people's works throughout her university years have to participate in a competition? What qualifications do you have to become my superior!

Xu Weiya gritted her teeth as she strove to calm the flames of anger in her heart.

He really couldn't accept it!

But even if she was unwilling, there was nothing she could do about it. When she first came to the company, she had signed a five-year labor contract and unilaterally broke the contract to pay the penalty. That huge sum of money was not something she could afford.

"Ding ~"

A text message notification came from her phone in her jacket pocket. Xu Weiya took a deep breath, pursed her lips into a smile and took out her phone, then opened the text message:

Su Xi, "Weiya, let's go out for dinner tonight. There's a new French restaurant on Golden Street, let me treat you."

Xu Weiya stared at the screen for a few seconds, then replied: "Alright, I'll see you tonight/cutie"

— —

In the distance, there was green water and green mountains. Flying birds flew across the vast expanse of smoke, and their wings inadvertently swept away the last bit of light in the sky.

Sunn Jiuyi leaned on a walking stick and limped up the stairs, he was sweating profusely as he looked up at the ancient courtyard not far away, breathing heavily, and read out the words on the signboard word by word, "Zhu, Ya, Xuan — Damn, this name is so sour, when did you learn Buddhism?"

Fu Yunshang ignored him and turned to Gong Ling, "Big brother, you just came back from the border. That place is filled with killing intent, let's eat some vegetarian food tonight."

Gong Ling stood tall and straight. Because his clan's business was constantly on the road to travel to the north, coupled with the fact that he had once fought boxing before, his body always carried with it an untamed and sharp aura.

He nodded and replied, "I'm usually tired of big wine and big meat. It's not bad to drink tea and eat meals occasionally."

Fu Yunshang smiled and led everyone into the courtyard.

The layout of the courtyard was very ingenious. There were fake mountains, hot springs, and large patches of emerald green bamboo forests. The staff had already prepared them long ago.

Sunn Jiuyi was very hungry on the way, so after drinking a mouthful of tea, he started to make big chunks of Duoji.

"Can you eat slower? The soup is on my plate. " Chen Ming who was seated beside Sunn Jiuyi frowned, his tone full of disdain.

Sunn Jiuyi stuffed a piece of tofu into his mouth, turned his head to look at Chen Ming, and said unclearly: "You're not Second Elder Brother, why are you so obsessed with cleanliness? We're all brothers, what are you looking down on me for?

When Sunn Jiuyi said this, he spat out the bean curd. Even if Chen Ming wasn't obsessed with cleanliness, at this moment, he was disgusted.

"Come here." Chen Ming pointed to one of the waiter s guarding the side and handed over the plate that had been dirty by Sunn Jiuyi. "Give me another plate."

waiter: "Yes, please wait a moment." Finished, waiter could not help but steal a glance at Sunn Jiuyi.

Was this person really Young Master Fu's friend?

Zhu Ya Xuan's signboard had been nominated by the ancients, so the price of each dish here was more than four digits. Even the tea that he was currently drinking was brewed using the spring water from a snowy mountain.

Sunn Jiuyi who was focused on eating did not realize that he had been deeply despised by the waiter. He only knew that even though the dishes were vegetarian, every dish was so delicious that it made him swallow his tongue.

Gong Ling sipped some tea as a censer shaped like a coiling dragon was placed on the table made of Pear Blossom Tree. The smell of incense was faint, as if it had the effect of calming the mind and calming down the nerves, alleviating even the headache he had suffered a few days ago.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He had to admit, compared to the gaudy things that Sunn Jiuyi did every time, this kind of elegant and unique environment relaxed his mood even more.

However, the Fu Yunshang of the past was not such a carefree and carefree person.

Gong Ling's eyelashes trembled a few times as he opened her eyes. He then took a sip of tea, his fingers caressing the edge of his teacup, her eyes revealing a faint smile, "I heard from Nine Heavens saying that you found the woman that threw you into the wilderness?"

Fu Yunshang paused when he was making the tea, smirked, and leaned over to help Gong Ling fill the cup, saying: "En, she is a bit introverted, I will introduce his to big brother next time, when there's a chance."

Gong Ling laughed loudly, "Haha, that's good."

"Big brother, how many days can you stay this time?" Sunn Jiuyi wiped the corner of his mouth and asked curiously.

"Three days. I have to go to the west side of the city in three days. "

West Side?" Chen Ming said with a heavy expression, "I heard that it had been a drought for three consecutive years. Crops did not grow, and a few natural rivers are facing a crisis of drying up. The local residents are now poor, and the neighbouring countries are also beginning to agitate and try to expand their territories … Big brother, you should be more careful when you get there.

Gong Ling nodded, "Mn, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." He suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Fu Yunshang, saying, "This time, I accidentally saw your fourth uncle at the border."

"Five years ago, after he left the Fu Family, he moved to the M Nation's Xuanluo Lin. That place is close to the border, it is not surprising that you could meet him."

"This way …" "However, your fourth uncle has always operated casinos for a living. This time, I actually saw him mingling with people under the Cang Family."

"After your father left, your fourth uncle caused the most trouble in the debate. Cang Family s are doing a great deal of business in the M Nation, and right now, you seem to have the mind to go back to your original development. I feel that it's not a good thing for your fourth uncle to be close to Cang Family.

Cang Family and Fu Family were the same. They were both large clans with deep roots, but it was easier for large conflicts to arise within large clans like these.

Moreover, Cang Family was a name given to the wild master. The prey they had targeted, without exception, avoided a calamity.
