As soon as Gu Tong walked out of the meeting room, she received a call from Liu Lilin, saying that she wanted to invite her for lunch.

Since the client had personally invited her, how could Gu Tong refuse? She straightforwardly accepted the invitation and confirmed the exact meeting address and time with the customer.

"Sister Lin, thank you very much for being satisfied with the jewelry I designed. Don't worry, I will definitely design it for you with even more diligence. I definitely won't let you down."

After a simple greeting, Gu Tong sincerely thanked Liu Li Lin. She felt that it was very rare for her to be able to satisfy her own design.

She knew that in the upper class society, rich ladies like Liu Lilin often had high requirements for jewelry. Often, designers would order jewelry according to their requirements, and it would take them at least a month to design it.

Faced with her thanks, Liu Li just waved her hand casually, "Little Gu, you don't have to thank me specifically. It's all because of your ability that I'm satisfied. If the items you've designed aren't good, then I won't accept them."

Hearing Liu Li Lin's words, Gu Tong's smile became brighter and brighter, and she said excitedly: "Sister Lin, you're my first customer, and also the first customer to confirm my abilities. I'm very happy to be able to know you."

"Since you're so happy, eat more. The taste here is pretty good, I often bring my friends over."

Liu Lilin seemed to be quite satisfied with Gu Tong. Not only did she enthusiastically invite Gu Tong to eat more, she even helped her with the food.

Gu Tong didn't dare to allow her customers to pick up the dishes for her. She immediately refused and took the initiative to make a move. The two of them continued to eat while talking about relaxed topics. The atmosphere was very cheerful.

As for the future design, Liu Li had already discussed it with Gu Tong. She didn't have any special needs for now, so she knew that Gu Tong had been working hard to catch up on the design, so she asked her to rest for two days and notify Gu Tong when she needed to.

"You are my most satisfied jewelry designer so far. My jewelry designer will only look for you in the future. Have a good rest when you're free. Don't be listless when I'm looking for you."

After having the last mouthful of dessert, Liu Lilin half-jokingly told Gu Tong, as if she considered Gu Tong to be her friend.

Gu Tong liked this kind of feeling. She didn't like people who had a strong sense of superiority, so when she heard Liu Li Lin's words, she immediately smiled and greeted, "Sister Lin, I understand. I will definitely have a good rest."

Right after Gu Tong finished speaking, Liu Li Lin slowly stood up from her chair and leisurely said, "Since that's the case, I won't bother you any longer. You can go back to work! I'll go back and rest early! "

Gu Tong nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll go back to work first. We'll arrange to meet again next time."

The two bid each other a simple farewell before formally parting ways.

Before she came to see Liu Li Lin, Gu Tong had been a little worried that she would be satisfied with her plan so readily due to Si Yichen's face. Now that she had taken the initiative to invite him out for a meal, she should be discussing some matters regarding Si Yichen with him.

As Gu Tong thought about how the others didn't care about her ability and only cared about the relationship between her and Si Yichen, she felt a great deal of discomfort in her heart.

But now, after seeing Liu Li Lin, she didn't hear even half a word about Si Yichen, nor did she hear her repeated concerns about her. Gu Tong felt as if she had parted the clouds and seen the blue sky.

It looks like I have to choose between the right and wrong, I'm really suited to be a jewelry designer!

When she thought about how Liu Li Lin was satisfied with her work just because of herself, her determination to sway in Gu Tong's heart immediately hardened.

"Gu Tong, you're back? Director Xiang had just come to find you, and had instructed you to personally pay him a visit when you returned later. "

Gu Tong had just returned to the company in excitement when she heard someone inform her of the news.

Ever since the morning when Fang Cheng had used the meeting time to teach the people from the design department, their attitude towards Gu Tong had changed. Although they were not exactly polite, they were a lot more polite.

If this ever happened, they would act as if they hadn't heard anything. If they didn't tell Gu Tong, then when they did, their tone would be very strange, making her feel very uncomfortable.

It was really the first time he spoke in such a calm and normal tone.

Sensing the change in her colleague, Gu Tong felt increasingly joyful. After replying with a smile, she walked briskly towards Xiang Yinghao's office.

When they arrived at the office door, they did not see Chang Shi Shi as their personal secretary. Gu Tong consciously reached out and knocked on the door, "Knock …" "Knock …"

"Please come in —" Xiang Yinghao's voice sounded out.

Gu Tong took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the door.

Although they had met many times in private, his boss's identity had never changed in Gu Tong's heart. Every time she faced him, she couldn't help but get nervous and make herself more cautious.

"You're here? "Come over and sit."

Compared to her strict attitude, Xiang Yinghao seemed to be both casual and enthusiastic. Upon seeing her figure, he immediately invited her to sit.

"Thank you, Director Xiang."

After a very formal reply, Gu Tong sat down slowly in front of Xiang Yinghao's desk.

She had just sat down when Xiang Yinghao's voice rang out once more, "I know that you still have a lot of things to do. Mrs Xie's necklace still needs to be followed up on, so I won't waste your time any longer. I'll just cut to the chase …"

"I feel that you handled Mrs Xie's project very well. I feel that it's too unfair for you to continue being an assistant designer, so I decided to give you a promotion and let you become an official designer. What do you think?"

Although Xiang Yinghao was the company's boss, his words were not forceful at all, even having a hint of consultation within them.

However, Gu Tong's attention was not on this. What she valued the most was that Xiang Yinghao had actually said he wanted to give her a promotion?

I... Can I even get promoted now?

Didn't the company stipulate that the designer's assistant had to work for at least a year before she could become an assistant?

I... How long have I been working? Why so soon?

Although Gu Tong's heart was filled with joy, she was still filled with doubt and puzzlement. She felt that everything before her was not real.
