Three years would grind down all the sharp edges of a person's edges, but it would also cause a person's stubborn attitude to become even more paranoid. For example, the former was like Tang Hongbo while the latter was like Duan Wenyu.

Until the knock on the door sounded again.

He could only soften his tone.

Duan Wenyu sat down, and then saw Tang Hongbo push the documents on the table to her.

"Take a look."

Duan Wenyu opened the folder in doubt.

"Why are you holding my blueprint?" Duan Wenyu was surprised.

"What's wrong? As the CEO of the company, you don't even have the right to look at the script under you? " Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"That's not what I meant. I just … just wanted to ask." Duan Wenyu laughed awkwardly.

"Do you think there's a problem with your design?" Tang Hongbo asked.

Hearing that, Duan Wenyu looked carefully, but she could not see any problems either.

Tang Hongbo saw that Duan Wenyu was silent and said indifferently.

"These are spring designs, but they don't fit with the theme of our spring year. These designs tend to be heavy and silent. Spring represents hope, but I don't see any hope in your work, do you understand? " Tang Hongbo said.

Duan Wenyu listened and nodded.

"I understand, I will redesign it." Duan Wenyu closed the document with a calm expression.

Why, why did he only want to talk to her about work? She would always have an expression that was cold and distant. This shouldn't be the way they interacted with each other.

"What else do you want?" Seeing that she had not left, Tang Hongbo asked indifferently.

"I heard the company wants to sign a French designer. Are you picking on my work because of that designer?" Duan Wenyu asked in a soft voice, unwilling to give up.

Tang Hongbo looked at her in astonishment.

"Are you questioning my professionalism or do you think I'm making fun of my job?" Tang Hongbo looked unhappy.

"No, that's not what I meant. I was scared." Duan Wenyu said as she silently lowered her head.

"What are you afraid of?" Tang Hongbo asked indifferently.

"In the past, I was still a design director, but since Qingxia came back, you have given this position to her. Now, I am just a chief designer in the company, but now, you all have to sign for a chief designer from France. I'm afraid you don't need me anymore, either in life or at work. " Duan Wenyu looked wronged.

Tang Hongbo immediately said when he heard this.

"What do you mean you are just a chief designer? Do you know what's the most important thing for the Tang clan? Without good works, everything else is in vain. The French designer is very outstanding, and I have also seen her work, it is indeed better than yours, no, it should be said, in two different styles, but who said that we cannot have two chief designers, as long as your design is good, will you be afraid of a newbie who has just entered the world? As for the position of Design Director, I have already explained it to you before, what Qingxia studies abroad is financial management. All these years, you have also seen, ever since we had Yiyi, she became more serious, studious, and diligent, she managed your design department very well, at least better than you, so she is more suitable to be in charge of it than you, do you understand? " Tang Hongbo, this was the first time that he was willing to speak so much and talk so much with her.

She felt a little light-hearted and said immediately.

"I understand."

"Since you already know and understand, I hope that I don't want to hear any more about this next time. Or should I say, these questions." Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"Alright, I understand. Then I'll go out first. After the design has been changed, I'll bring it back to you for your approval." Duan Wenyu stood up as she said this.

Tang Hongbo nodded as he watched her turn around and leave.

He thought back to what Duan Wenyu had just said. No matter if it was in life or work, he no longer needed her.

He once thought that her leaving was related to Duan Wenyu, but over the past few years, he gradually stopped doubting her. However, every time he saw Duan Wenyu, he would think of her.

So other than work, he would not see her if he could. He also knew how she felt about him after so many years, but they were no longer possible.

There were so many impossible things in this world. There was only one thing. He deeply believed that it was possible that she would return.

When Meng Qingxia saw Duan Wenyu walking out from Tang Hongbo's office, she seemed to be in a good mood. She guessed that Tang Hongbo must have fed her some sweet talk.

However, thinking about it, it was still impossible. Others might not know that she knew her cousin very well, whether it was at home or at the company, they would never treat Duan Wenyu well.

In truth, she had never understood. She remembered that before this, they were clearly a pair of lovers, but after that, why did the plot reverse greatly? Tang Hongbo had actually married Duan Wenyu's sister.

At the beginning, she was quite curious about this reversal of events, but then she gradually stopped wanting to ask. In short, it was good for Tang Hongbo to marry anyone, so she had no choice but to not marry Duan Wenyu.

In the past, she still hated Duan Wenyu, but now, seeing her being embarrassed everyday in front of her cousin, she started to sympathize with her.

But thinking about how she was sometimes quite ridiculous, she sympathized with others, but who could sympathize with her?

Seeing Yi Yi grow up day by day, she felt incredibly sad. It wasn't that she didn't want to find him, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.

If she found him and he told her that he was married and had children, what would she do? If this was the end result, he might as well not look for it.

That way, she could still lie to herself. He still had his own feelings, but in reality, it was just a one-night stand.

There was no romantic confession, nor was there any unforgettable experience. In fact, she really couldn't be considered a lover. Even if he was married, she had no reason to blame him.

On the other hand, if he found out that he had secretly given birth to his child one day in the future, would he blame her?

After all, his favorite lesson was to scold her and scold her.

Thinking about it, Meng Qingxia could not help but laugh.

"Director Meng seems to be in a good mood, but isn't it bad to stand at my desk and giggle like that?" Duan Wenyu's voice sounded out leisurely.

Meng Qingxia regained her senses and retorted.

"Designer Duan seems to be in a good mood too, could it be that the CEO has said something to you?" Meng Qingxia sneered.

"What did the CEO say to me? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the director. If the director is fine, then let me go. I'm going to work." Duan Wenyu said indifferently.

"Well, you do have a job to do. Here, you can have it." Meng Qingxia said as she handed over a stack of documents to her.

Duan Wenyu reached out to receive it.

"What is this?" she asked doubtfully.

"Why, didn't the president tell you? This is the design draft of Ms. Chen Xi from France. The CEO said that she wanted me to give it to you for your reference so that you could revise your design. " Meng Qingxia said unhappily as she looked at her.

"It's Chen Xi again, you sure are active, what's wrong? Do you want to use this newbie who just came out of nowhere to kick me out of the Tang clan? " Duan Wenyu said with a gloomy face.

"I said you were delusional and yet you refuse to admit it. So what if you're a newbie? At the very least, their works are very popular. Meng Qingxia snorted.

"This person isn't here yet and he's already starting to flatter us. What's wrong? Afraid of being unable to keep her? " Duan Wenyu sneered.

I don't need you to worry about that, you better do your best in designing it. This spring's main product, it is not certain who will be using it, you can be rest assured that Miss Chen will be here soon. Right, I just told you to consult it, not copy it.

"Do you think I'd copy it?" Duan Wenyu looked at her hatefully.

"That's hard to say. I'm not a worm in your stomach, how would I know? Even if you copy it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, you know my cousin will help you with the aftermath." Meng Qingxia said with a fake smile.

"Meng Qingxia, after all these years, you still haven't changed a thing, you can't speak without thinking. What do you think my plagiarism will do for you, the Tang clan's chief designer?" Meng Qingxia, after so many years, you still haven't changed a thing, you can't speak without thinking. Duan Wenyu looked at her with a look of despise.

"Are you lecturing me? Aren't you afraid of taking responsibility for talking to your boss like that? Meng Qingxia said bitterly.

"You …"

"Aiyo, okay, you two aunts, when can you fix the problem that you two just got out of hand?" Hearing that, Secretary Wang who was walking over tried to persuade her.

"There's no need to change it, and I don't want to change it either." Meng Qingxia let out a heavy snort, and then, without even turning her head back, she returned to her own office.

Secretary Wang sighed and followed him.

Duan Wenyu angrily smashed the documents in her hands onto the table, then looked at the group of colleagues around her and scolded sternly.

"What are you looking at? Don't you need to work?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately lowered their heads and pretended to be busy.

Secretary Wang followed Meng Qingxia into the office.
