The exhibition was abuzz with gossip!
Those who knew Ye Tong even called her to confirm, which angered her so much she didn’t dare to step outside.
She was convinced that it was Ye Yuning spreading rumors at the exhibition that ruined her reputation.
She imdiately called Ye Yuning. "Ye Yuning, what do you have to be proud of? Everything you have today belongs to . You’ve occupied my life for so many years, enjoying the luxury of a wealthy young lady, and now you want to ruin as well?"
"Then co and take it."
Ye Yuning, having accidentally answered the phone and hearing Ye Tong’s furious voice, snapped back.
Without waiting for Ye Tong to speak, she continued, "Aren’t you sick of saying these things? I’m sick of hearing them. What do you an, ’yours’? If we’re going to be precise, none of it is yours."
The nerve of them, claiming it’s theirs! Just like mother and daughter. Their shaless way of talking was exactly the sa.
Ye Tong sneered, "Oh, so you think it belongs to you? You really are shaless!"
"I’m ruining you? Ye Tong, you really have so nerve."
"If it’s not you, then who? You dare say the gossip at today’s exhibition wasn’t spread by you?"
Thinking of those calls earlier, Ye Tong felt like she was truly about to explode with anger. So reporters were also seeking confirmation.
Ye Yuning retorted, "You’ve done wrong, and now you’re afraid of people talking about it? Besides, I’m not the only one in Upper City who knows about this!"
"Is it really you?" Ye Tong cried out in shock.
How utterly speechless! Ye Yuning hung up the phone right away. Dealing with this bunch was utterly draining.
Right after hanging up, a ssage from Xiao Linye ca in. "Did you also go to the exhibition today?"
Seeing this ssage, Ye Yuning’s eyelids twitched.
She imdiately replied, "Yes, I ca with my boss, and we have passes."
Xiao Linye, on the other side of the phone, looked at Ye Yuning’s reply, a deep tenderness flashing through his eyes.
When Lai Shuo entered, he saw Xiao Linye looking unusually gentle.
If he hadn’t rembered that this formidable figure was already married, he would have doubted his own eyes. But it seed he really did love his wife very much. Especially that tenderness in his expression; it was sothing he’d never shown before. But recalling the Xiao Family’s attitude, Lai Shuo’s scalp tingled; there would be plenty of trouble ahead.
Seeing Lai Shuo enter, Xiao Linye imdiately composed his expression.
Lai Shuo was silent for a mont. Such blatant favoritism!
Xiao Linye comnted, "This ti the rising potential designer is from Manlang again."
At these words, Lai Shuo’s heart skipped a beat.
He had seen it outside earlier. He had to admit, Boss Ye of Manlang was quite demanding with her collaboration partners. But when it ca to her own people, she was anything but stingy. Manlang’s Ma Di and Lei An had both attended; those two designers were renowned in the industry. And now there was Lan Ying too! It had to be said, Manlang was truly full of hidden talents these days. Though it was just a studio, to make it the number one studio, this Boss Ye certainly had so real skill.
Lai Shuo nodded. "After the exhibition ends, I’ll take the business departnt team to talk to Boss Ye."
They had indeed been too hasty last ti! They hadn’t fully understood their collaboration partners and had hastily treated everyone the sa. If their relationship with Manlang hadn’t soured, they wouldn’t be facing so many problems now. At least the Nanjia Peak project wouldn’t be in trouble.
Xiao Linye lit a cigarette and didn’t reply, only saying, "Tell Xiao Shuo to stop bothering Boss Ye in the future."
"Understood," Lai Shuo nodded.
Even if Xiao Linye hadn’t instructed him, he would have told Xiao Shuo anyway. Boss Ye had finally relented this ti; they couldn’t let Xiao Shuo go and provoke her again. Speaking of Xiao Shuo, Lai Shuo recalled the phone call from Second Master Xiao that morning. Sothing about Boss Ye cherishing old feelings?
Lai Shuo suppressed his urge to comnt but ultimately couldn’t help scoffing, "Soone like Boss Ye wouldn’t take a fancy to the likes of Xiao Shuo, let alone cherish old feelings!"
"What kind of person is she?" Xiao Linye asked. He hadn’t t her and didn’t know her well.
When it ca to describing what kind of person Ye Yuning—or rather, Boss Ye—was, Lai Shuo felt a headache coming on, recalling his previous dealings with her. After so thought, he said, sowhat sheepishly, "Not very tall, very petite, but her personality is swift and decisive, a typical career-oriented woman."
Xiao Linye raised an eyebrow. "Not tall?"
That didn’t sound right. Although the woman—the Boss Ye he’d t—wasn’t particularly tall, the word "petite" definitely didn’t apply to her.
Lai Shuo nodded. "Yes, not tall. You could say she’s a concentrated powerhouse!"
Xiao Linye was silent for a mont.
A concentrated powerhouse! That level of ’smallness’ imdiately made him think of Ye Yuning. Speaking of his little woman, perhaps because she hadn’t had an easy life growing up, she hadn’t grown very tall. By his estimate, she was probably under 1.6 ters tall—truly a compact package.
An image of the woman he’d encountered—Boss Ye—flashed in his mind. Raising an eyebrow, he looked at Lai Shuo and asked, "Do you have so sort of misunderstanding about the word ’petite’?"
