Qiao Mo lazed at ho for two days, feeling much more relaxed.
On the third day, she received a call from Louis, who wanted to et her. Qiao Mo pondered for a mont and agreed.
Early that morning, Fu Nancheng had already gone to the company. Qiao Mo didn’t tell him about this eting because, knowing his usual possessive nature, she worried she’d likely not be able to go if he found out.
At ten o’clock, Qiao Mo arrived on ti at Beauty Hotel.
Louis was already there, wearing a short-sleeved shirt, gray tapered trousers, his hair ticulously combed, clean and neat.
Sitting there, he appeared elegant and composed, drawing the attention of many girls around him.
Today, Qiao Mo wore a white suit with light blue trim, silver buttons, and a pair of white sneakers, looking fresh and clean.
"You’re quite early," Qiao Mo said after sitting down and checking the ti.
"How could I not be early to wait for such a beautiful lady?" Louis called the waiter, and Qiao Mo ordered a glass of juice.
Perhaps having lived abroad since childhood, Louis had a touch of gentlemanliness in his nature, yet also a kind of straightforwardness typical of foreigners.
Without hesitation, he got straight to the point: "The reason I asked you out this ti is mainly to apologize for Alina’s matter."
Qiao Mo was taken aback for a mont. Although she suspected he was related to this issue, she didn’t expect his direct apology.
"Alina was spoiled since childhood, yet competitive. This competition caused significant damage to your reputation, and I am truly very sorry."
Qiao Mo was silent for a mont. This incident had a considerable impact on her, causing a lot of harm, so easily forgiving would seem sowhat insincere.
"It’s all in the past now, things are already like this. Saying more won’t make any difference." Qiao Mo smiled.
"Actually, everyone knows it was Alina who plagiarized your design. I’ve scolded her already, but like you, I have no evidence. Otherwise, I would certainly prove your innocence." Louis expressed so regret, his deep eyes full of sincerity.
Qiao Mo was sowhat moved. She couldn’t demand too much from others, but at least his stance showed that he already considered her a friend.
Qiao Mo changed the subject: "Now that my reputation is tarnished, your company can’t go back, huh? If your company breaches the contract, I might just end up unemployed at ho."
Louis laughed heartily: "Of course, supporting you for a lifeti is no issue! Gold will always shine, and ti will eventually prove you are the talented one!"
Qiao Mo smiled, but Louis spoke again: "But Xiao Mo, although Alina is competitive, doing such a disgraceful thing. I previously tested her, and it seems your design wasn’t stolen by her directly. From what she said, soone copied the design onto a USB stick and tossed it into her bag when she wasn’t paying attention."
Qiao Mo was stunned for a mont, not expecting that this was how Alina’s design ca to be.
"So I’m wondering, did you offend anyone? Or is there anyone you suspect?"
Qiao Mo was silent.
Louis continued: "I know maybe you still suspect Alina, but I also think soone else might have stolen your design."
Qiao Mo remained silent. In fact, she had previously thought the design wasn’t stolen by Alina, but considering who else might have taken it, she really didn’t want to think further...
