Chapter 200: 200 You Think Too Highly Of Yourself_1
“You think too highly of yourself!”
“Do I? What do you mean by that, President Gu?”
“I typically only threaten my rivals. But you don’t even qualify to be my opponent! You’re just an immature little woman.”
There was arrogance and excessive self-confidence in Gu Yuanzhou’s words.
I narrowed my eyes slightly.
Actually, I always knew that Gu Yuanzhou was a very arrogant man.
As the president of Zhenyi Company and being steeped in the business world for so many years, there’s no type of person he hasn’t come across.
And in his eyes, I was just a naive girl. It was normal for him to look down on me.
“Is it so? If President Gu thinks so lightly of me, then why did you drag me here for a discussion? Isn’t that a sign of being guilty and cowardly?”
Faced with my biting sarcasm, Gu Yuanzhou didn’t show any anger. He continued smoking.
He finished the cigarette and then calmly said,
“I am just informing you that opposing me won’t benefit you in any way!”
“Oh, I have already resigned from Zhenyi. I have no connection with Mr. Gu anymore. You walk your broad path, and I’ll cross my single-log bridge!”
I barely finished speaking when he grabbed my arm and pulled me close.
“Don’t forget, you are now being used as a pawn by the Ding Family and are striking against me! I’ll warn you this once, if you blindly continue to help the Ding Family against me, I won’t show you any mercy.”
After saying this, he snorted coldly, put out his cigarette in the ashtray, stood up, and left the room.
I massaged my aching wrist, still contemplating the words he had just said.
A few minutes later, I heard someone calling for Mei Ni outside.
I hurriedly stepped out.
At the door, a woman with the airs of a grande dame dressed in fashionable clothes and holding a bag walked in hastily.
From afar, one could see the fatigue on her face
This woman was Mei Ni, the one I had come to visit.
Mei Ni was a very beautiful woman, a rich man’s daughter who had married a property tycoon.
She was a former model and was deeply involved in the fashion circle. She dictated the trends in the fashion industry, and the clothes she wore represented the next season’s popular style.
So, having Tianjiao’s clothes on her was equivalent to free advertising for us.
To secure this order, I put a lot of effort into it.
I have collaborated with her before and was very familiar with her preferences.
This time, I came prepared.
I brought a bunch of documents with me and looked at them while sitting on the sofa.
There were a lot of people present.
Mei Ni didn’t walk over immediately, but instead started a conversation with another woman halfway.
Behind me, two women were whispering to each other.
“Hey, Mei Ni looks a bit off-color! It seems the rumors about her marital problems are true indeed!”
“No wonder she hasn’t stepped out for an entire week, seems like the rumors spreading online are true…”
“I heard her husband is supporting a female internet celebrity who is now pregnant. She came to her company, belly already showing.”
“Mei Ni is such a competitive woman, wouldn’t she immediately want a divorce?”
“I heard they are already discussing the divorce agreement and now living separately ”
“Ugh, I don’t understand these men, Mei Ni is so beautiful and skilled, yet her husband isn’t satisfied?”
“That’s how men are, they lose interest overtime! She and her husband have been married for about four or five years now.”
I could hear the women conversely gossiping.
Just as Wenya had said, Mei Ni indeed was having marital issues.
While I was deep in thought, Gu Yuanzhou entered the room from outside. He had a red rose in his hand and simply sat down beside me.
As I was sizing him up, he conveniently took the documents in front of me.
“Mr. Gu, it’s quite rude to go through someone else’s documents without their permission.”
It seemed like Gu Yuanzhou wasn’t listening to me at all. He skimmed through the documents, then handed them back to me.
“Useless!”
I didn’t want to argue with him, so I just collected the documents back into my hands.
After a few minutes, Mei Ni finally ended her conversation and sat down across from me.
“Miss Mei, my name is Song Xiaoyun. I am a designer from Tianjiao Company. Here are some fashion sketches I’ve brought for you to take a look at ”
I had previously scheduled this with her assistant, so I assumed she would remember.
She seemed very interested when she looked at my documents.
“Very good! I like them all In that case, make the first, third, and fifth evening dresses for me!”
“Miss Mei, do you like my designs?”
Mei Ni took another serious look through the sketches, then looked at me squarely, “Did you design all of these?”
“Did Miss Mei find any issues with the designs?”
“Oh, there aren’t any issues. It’s just that your design style is very similar to a friend of mine’s. It’s very good very good…”
“Alright, if you like them, can you please sign here?”
Everything was going as I had imagined. Mei Ni’s taste hasn’t changed, she likes this type of design.
Just as Mei Ni was about to sign
A voice interrupted her.
“Miss Mei, I think these dresses are not suitable for you!”
The person who spoke was none other than Gu Yuanzhou.
Mei Ni looked up at Gu Yuanzhou in confusion, “Does Mr. Gu have any suggestions?”
Gu Yuanzhou glanced at me, then looked back at Mei Ni,
“Miss Mei, if you’re interested, may I invite you for a dance?”
“It would be my honor!”
Mei Ni stood up leaving her pen behind, following Gu Yuanzhou onto the dance floor.
A miraculous thing happened next.
Mei Ni, who was gloomy before, started beaming with joy after a dance with Gu Yuanzhou. I don’t know what Gu Yuanzhou said to her, but she was all smiles.
A few minutes later, Mei Ni even took the red rose from Gu Yuanzhou, and both of them went into a room laughing and talking, then shut the door.
The music was still playing, and the women behind me continued whispering to each other.
“Hey! Who was that man just now, he’s so handsome and charming? I see, Mei Ni seems smitten, isn’t she?”
“You have good eyes, that man is Gu Yuanzhou, the boss of Zhenyi Company!”
“So, that’s Gu Yuanzhou! Didn’t I hear he was married before?”
“Yes, he was married, but now his wife is gone! Currently, he’s listed in the top three of A City’s most eligible bachelors! If Mei Ni really ends up with him, it would be a perfect match.”
“But didn’t Mei Ni just go through a marital crisis?”
“Isn’t the divorce basically a done deal?”
“That’s true, the two of them do seem well-matched…”
I didn’t think too much of Mei Ni dancing with Gu Yuanzhou.
But from Gu Yuanzhou’s calm eyes, I felt a sense of unease!
