Tang Xi received a call from Chu Ling on the way. She was scolded by Chu Ling as soon as she picked up the phone, “Are you sure these are your designs? If you want to compete at Paris Fashion Week with these designs, I suggest you stop dreaming. Who will favor such a design, except you?!

Tang Xi just received a phone call and was immediately scolded by Chu Ling. She frowned and said coldly, “Mr. Chu, you can denigrate me, but please don’t denigrate my design. I designed them with my heart and soul!”

“If that’s what you did with your heart and soul, then I’m sorry, I can’t get you a show at Paris Fashion Week with something like that, and… I have no way to make your company a hit in fashion industry!” Chu Ling’s voice was very serious, and he didn’t seem to be joking at all. After a pause, he said, “If you don’t want to show your sincerity, Miss Tang, how can I believe that you really want to make your company succeed?!”

Tang Xi didn’t know what to say. She didn’t know Chu Ling very well. In her eyes, he was like a dandy, although Qiao Liang kept telling her that he was really awesome. In her subconsciousness, she thought Chu Ling might be the kind of person who would stick to his own way, so he would just do what he was asked to and wouldn’t take this company very seriously. She had never thought that he would be angry…

And angry because of her design drawings?

Tang Xi paused and even had the impulse to ask him ‘do you understand design’? But after thinking about it, she said, “Well, I have something to deal with now. I will go back to the company after I finish it, and then I will modify it and show them to you again.”

Chu Ling grunted and coldly said, “I’m waiting for you at the company.”

“No…” Tang Xi was about to say no, but before she finished, Chu Ling had hung up the phone. Tang Xi looked at the phone speechlessly and it had been quite a while before she turned to look at Little Six who was driving. “What kind of person is Chu Ling?”

Little Six started to get nervous when Tang Xi began to talk, because he could tell Tang Xi was angry, so he kept quiet, lest Tang Xi noticed his presence. However, Tang Xi still noticed him… Embarrassed, he had a helpless gleam in his eyes. He adjusted the rear-view mirror so that Tang Xi couldn’t see his facial expression, saying, “Mr. Chu is a mysterious person, but not as mysterious as our Young Master who is the most mysterious person in the business circle.”

Tang Xi: “…” But I didn’t ask what kind of person your Young Master was, okay?

Knowing that she wouldn’t get the answer she wanted from Little Six, Tang Xi decided to let it be. She didn’t believe Chu Ling understood design!

After giving Qiao Yuxin acupuncture, Tang Xi massaged her for half an hour and then left Qiao Liang’s home to go to the company. It was nine o’clock in the evening when she returned to the company, and the other employees had gone home, but the light was still on in Chu Ling’s office. Tang Xi raised an eyebrow and entered the elevator. Tang Xi walk into Chu Ling’s office and he looked up at her. His face was all dark and he said coldly, “I didn’t know a high school student would be so busy on weekends? Are you busy dating Qiao Liang?”

Tang Xi didn’t want to waste any time and came straight to the point. “What’s the problem of my design? If you don’t give me a reason, Mr. Chu, I’ll think you’re making fun of me.”

“Make fun of you?” Chu Ling sneered, got up from his office chair with a stack of documents, and walked up to Tang Xi as he said, “I don’t have time for that!” With that, he threw the documents onto the tea table and signaled Tang Xi to have a look. “How do you think of this person’s design?”

Tang Xi looked at the stack of documents and raised her eyebrows. They were her own designs, but… were released in the name of Qin Xinying, so they should be taken as the works of Qin Xinying. She grunted, and sit down on the sofa beside, “I think they are quite good.”

“Quite good?” Chu Ling sneered again and stared coldly at Tang Xi as he asked harshly, “You call these quite good?”

Tang Xi frowned at Chu Ling and he snorted. “I may use these design drawings as a kindling, but I really can’t take them out if I have to take them to a competition. How could their author have the nerve to publish them? And she is even known as a “genius designer”! Are all other designers in China dead?”

Tang Xi scowled and looked coldly at Chu Ling, but he didn’t seem to feel guilty at all. He took a look at Tang Xi’s angry face and continued, “And you’re even worse! Your designs have exactly the same style with these works! Aren’t you afraid of being accused of plagiarism?!”

Tang Xi said coldly, “I didn’t plagiarize her works!”

She couldn’t tell him those design drawings were her own, because she was Xiao Rou now, not Tang Xi. Even if she told him those design drawings were not Qin Xinying’s but instead hers, Chu Ling wouldn’t believe her, because a man like Chu Ling could easily get any information he needed. If he found out these design drawings were made by Tang Xi, so in his heart, then she would still be a plagiarist in his mind…

Chu Ling looked straight at her face, raised his eyebrow and leaned backward. “You didn’t copy, but your design style resembles that person’s a lot! If you can’t change this style, you’ll always be labeled as a copycat to that designer named Qin Xinying. Are you willing to be like this all the time?”

Tang Xi fell silent. Of course she wasn’t!

“And your design, is too monotonous.” Chu Ling looked at Tang Xi. “If you know the fashion industry, you should know that you can’t get a place in today’s fashion industry with this kind of designs. Although your design works will be recognized by the fashion circle, you can never stand on the top. You’ll only be popular in China but will remain a nobody abroad just like Qin Xinying, understand?”

Tang Xi looked at Chu Ling, and after quite a while, she asked, “Do you know design?”

Chu Ling smiled and his eyes had a complacent gleam. He then leaned backward, looked arrogantly at Tang Xi and casually said, “You hadn’t been born yet when I made an impact in the fashion circle.”

Tang Xi narrowed her eyes, ignored Chu Ling’s words and asked, “What do you think needs to be changed in my design?”

“In your design, when you want it to be gorgeous, then you can only see gorgeousness from it; when you want it simple, then there isn’t any other element in it except simplicity. If designing is so easy, then I can simply decorate the clothes with peacock feathers to show gorgeousness, and make clothes with a linen sack to show its simplicity element, right?”
