Chapter 1811: Things Are Already at This Stage, There’s No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk

The corner of Wen Xinya’s lips raised slowly, and in her quiet gaze, she could see Xia Ruya, shocked, who must be feeling terrible right now. She was definitely waiting for Bai Ling to embarrass herself, of which she would capitalize on and make herself look better again.

However, she would not give Xia Ruya that chance.

She ordered someone to prepare the necessary materials for design.

Soon, everything was in place.

Wen Xinya held Bai Ling’s cold hands and comforted her. “Don’t give yourself too much stress and just do what you usually do. I’m here for you.”

Since she decided for Bai Ling to design on the spot, then she would not allow for her to suffer from any harm.

Bai Ling nodded her head solemnly.

Soon, Bai Ling entered a state of designing, where sometimes there was the sound of “sha sha” from the pencil, other times she took out an eraser to erase, and sometimes she stopped to think. This was not a smooth process, and she even stumbled a little.

Xia Ruya laughed coldly and became even more confident in her own judgment. She began to look forward to Bai Ling failing, and for Wen Xinya, who suggested this, to lose her face in front of everyone present.

There, a few people shook their heads and sighed.

Some snorted out of contempt.

Others regretfully sighed.

And some gloated over what was happening.

They had varied reactions, but clearly, no one thought that Bai Ling could design a beautiful, internationally-renowned piece right there on the spot.

Yet, Old Mr. Wen was not worried. Even though he did not trust Bai Ling, he had always trusted his granddaughter. She must have had her own plans when she proposed such a bold move in front of everyone there.

After all, Wen Xinya did indeed produce designs that were better than internationally-renowned pieces.

However—

Old Mr. Wen turned his gaze towards Xia Ruya.

He had already guessed that there was a spy in the Wen Corporation, and Xia Ruya’s actions today only confirmed that. He was too careless and allowed Xia Ruya to have a hold over the Wen Corporation.

Looks like he had to properly re-organize the corporation.

Everyone there was thinking of something different.

Only, Bai Ling changed from stumbling a little to smoothly drawing, and her expression became ever more somber. She had clearly entered into a flow state of work.

Jing Jing and Nan Nan were nervous and broke out in cold sweat, desperately praying for Buddha to bless Bai Ling’s performance.

Everyone in the design department was tense and hoping for a miracle.

Actually, everyone knew in their hearts that while Bai Ling’s design standards were not bad, they were not at the internationally-renowned level. However, she was their only hope today and their pillar of support.

“What do you think Xinya is doing?” Zhou Tianyu softly asked Gu Junling.

Gu Junling shook his head. “It’s hard to understand Xinya, let’s just watch and see!”

Xu Tongxuan felt a little uncomfortable. “I wonder if Bai Ling can produce a world-class design?”

Ye Feiyu’s face looked dark. “I doubt so!”

Du Ruo opened her eyes wide. “If she can’t do it, then… then won’t the Wen Corporation be known for copying?”

Ling Qingxuan said, “Don’t worry, I see Xinya is calm. She has her own reasoning behind doing this.”

Although he said that, they were not optimistic about it, as they did not think Bai Ling was up to it.

After about half an hour, where everyone’s patience was almost exhausted, Bai Ling put down her pencil. With big and sparkly eyes, she looked extremely happy with her results.

Looking at her, everyone began to trust Bai Ling.

Bai Ling looked at Wen Xinya. “Sister Xinya, I’m done!”

She felt that she managed to showcase herself in today’s design and was happy about it. Even if she could not save the Wen Corporation’s reputation, she felt that she really did put in her best.

Wen Xinya patted her on the shoulder. “It has been hard on you.”

She witnessed Bai Ling’s great display and had long known that Bai Ling performed well under stress. The higher the stress, the better she did, and the nicer the design.

The good thing was that she had huge potential.

The bad thing was that she was not steady enough.

Usually, this was Bai Ling’s weakness, but in such a situation, this was her strength. This was why she picked her out of the three of them.

“Wen Xinya, you must be kidding. How can such a piece compete with world-class designs? I admit that Bai Ling’s design is indeed spirited, and based on her age, she is really talented. However, her style is yet to mature, and the theme is not obvious enough. Her techniques aren’t refined. While I admit she has the potential to design a world-class piece, she can’t do it yet.”

“Bai Ling’s designs are good, better than others indeed, but it’s still too immature.”

“She’s talented, but needs more practice.”

“It’s a good start, but not mature enough.”

The professionals there started to discuss.

Bai Ling’s face suddenly turned pale and tightly held onto the edges of her shirt, with red eyes on the brink of tears. “I… I tried my best.”

Wen Xinya patted her shoulder, comforting her. She expected this result from the start. In fact, Bai Ling’s performance far exceeded her expectations.

Xia Ruya laughed. “Wen Xinya, what do you have to say now? How did you even dare to present your lead designer with such a standard? Aren’t you worried that you will reveal that the Wen Corporation actually did copy us?”

Things were already at such a stage, there was no use crying over spilled milk.

In her heart, Xia Ruya felt extremely happy.

After so many years, this was her dream. She wanted to step all over Wen Xinya to cause her embarrassment. Today, it was happening for real, and she felt accomplished.

Although, she could not see Wen Xinya’s defeated face just like she did in her imagination.

However, Wen Xinya was someone who could act well. She might look calm and collected on the outside, but she was probably feeling terrible on the inside.

Wen Xinya remained silent.

Bai Ling could not help but agitatedly reply, “We did not copy, you are the ones who copied. Don’t slander us…”

But any explanation at that moment was useless as it only seemed like excuses to outsiders, which further made it seem like the Wen Corporation really did copy the Li Corporation.

Bai Ling could not help but start to blame herself. “Sister Xinya, sorry. I really did my best already. I let down your trust in me, wu wu…”

Bai Ling cried right there on the spot.

Jing Jing and Nan Nan rushed out. “Our designs are in the new release as well, we have yet to showcase what we can do, so you cannot determine that the Wen Corporation must have copied…”

They stood out for everyone to see, and although they knew that what they designed could not save the Wen Corporation, they were determined to do it.

Wen Xinya was extremely touched. The entire Wen Corporation, including her, had already received the most valuable gift. They were not worried about losing to Xia Ruya, as it was only temporary. Also… they had yet to lose.
