31: Chapter 31: The Top Secretary, Liu Mi 31: Chapter 31: The Top Secretary, Liu Mi Looking up, she saw Chen Wei’s arrival.
Su Yui’s tensed heartstrings had just eased a bit, her thin lips slightly parting.
Before she could speak, she was interrupted by the woman beside her, “Who let you in?
This isn’t the place for you!
Get out!”
She was very angry.
“Mi Mi…”
Su Yui’s voice was too soft, completely overpowered by the woman’s voice.
“I told you to get out!
Didn’t you hear ?” Seeing Chen Wei remain unmoved, walking into the office and closing the door behind him, Liu Mi’s pretty face grew colder.
Having been at Qingshi for so long, she had never seen such an arrogant employee.
Just as she was about to check what his position was and what kind of background he had that made him dare to barge into the chairman’s office, she realized that Chen Wei didn’t even have a work badge on him!
“I’ve co to help,” Chen Wei explained why he was there.
“You?
What help could you possibly offer?” Liu Mi clearly didn’t believe him.
“Mi…
Secretary Liu, he’s my junior brother.
Maybe he really can be of help.
Let him try,” Su Yui pleaded, her expectations for Chen Wei significantly heightened by the incident that had occurred in the restaurant earlier.
She believed that perhaps he could truly present a piece of work that surpassed Jesford’s and would satisfy her.
“What?
He’s your junior brother, President Su?” When even President Su had spoken, naturally, Liu Mi had no way to send Chen Wei away anymore.
She thought it quite simple; Chen Wei and Su Yui probably attended the sa school at so point and called each other senior sister and junior brother accordingly, without any issue.
“So, which ‘Hidden Master’ of design do you know?” Liu Mi asked, her deanor slightly more relaxed, yet the coldness on her face hadn’t diminished by much.
She, too, had several junior brothers and sisters who had always clung to her, wanting her to use her position to help them get into Qingshi Group through the back door.
However, Liu Mi detested this kind of backdoor dealings the most!
“Hidden Master?
Are you talking about ?
I suppose I could be considered a hidden master,” Chen Wei said with self-deprecating humor.
“You?” Liu Mi looked Chen Wei up and down, honestly not believing that soone his age could accomplish anything significant.
She admitted that she was indeed judging a book by its cover, but in the field of design, even a genius needed ti to mature.
Take Jesford, for instance.
He was one of the globally recognized top ten designers and only started to shine and rise to prominence as a master at the age of forty!
Compared to him, Chen Wei looked even younger than her, barely in his early twenties, by the looks of it.
What gives him the right to claim he could produce a work more dazzling and exceptional than Jesford’s?
Anybody would think so.
It wasn’t that Liu Mi intentionally looked down on Chen Wei, but rather that he was overly arrogant!
“That’s right, it’s .
It looks like ti is of the essence, so let’s not waste it on each other.
I need a sheet of paper and a pen,” Chen Wei said to Liu Mi.
“You…” What kind of attitude was this?
Liu Mi was just about to retort when she heard Su Yui’s voice from behind, “Secretary Liu, let him have a try.
Arguing here won’t solve anything.”
Having said that, Liu Mi could only nod in agreent, fetching paper and pen as Chen Wei had asked, and slamming them down in front of him, “Here!”
Feeling her piercing gaze, Chen Wei smiled helplessly.
Have I offended her in so way?
Why does it seem like she really hates ?
“Senior sister, what style do you need?” Chen Wei looked at Su Yui and asked.
“Traditional Chinese,” Su Yui uttered without hesitation.
She had always believed that traditional Chinese style was the most powerful and had consistently adhered to that brand ethos.
“Alright,” Chen Wei replied, picking up the pen and beginning to sweep it across the paper.
He started writing without even thinking?
Heh, clearly a man who’s all talk and no follow-through!
Even if he could really create sothing, it must have been copied from sowhere.
Liu Mi was well-versed in dostic guofeng design, having perused countless works.
If there were any plagiarism, it would not escape her discerning eye.
She was looking forward to Chen Wei presenting a plagiarized piece, only for her to call it out and let Su Yui see him for who he really was and completely sever ties with him.
Keeping such a fraudster by Su Yui’s side was an insult to her status as a gold-dal secretary!
“Alright.”
Alright?
In the short ti that Liu Mi let her mind wander, Chen Wei had completed his creation.
This only reinforced Liu Mi’s belief—how could such speed be possible if not for plagiarism?
Even Jesford would need at least half a month to design a perfect draft.
Chen Wei?
It probably didn’t even take him half a minute.
“Let see!” Liu Mi snatched the design draft from Chen Wei’s hands, she had to admit, Chen Wei’s drawing skills were extraordinary.
The line work was so smooth it seed machine-generated, with not a tremor, so perfect it was almost ridiculous.
On inspecting the piece, Liu Mi’s first impression was simply ‘exquisite.’ There wasn’t a single unnecessary or bloated design; every stroke was just right, and lacking any one of them would greatly diminish the final effect of the garnt.
On the second look, Liu Mi saw it as dazzling.
On the third look, Liu Mi saw it as perfect!
On the fourth look…
“How, how can this be?” Liu Mi’s icy, disdainful deanor was completely replaced by disbelief as she looked from the draft in her hands back to Chen Wei, moving closer to him.
Close!
So close that their chests might touch.
Close enough for Chen Wei to clearly hear the alternate breathing of Liu Mi and the gentle fragrance carrying a faint scent, whispering against his cheek.
Close enough that a downward glance would reveal endless depths…
“Tell !
Where did you copy this work from?” Liu Mi could not find any mory of this piece in her recollection.
But, she did not want to believe that Chen Wei could create such a perfect design draft in just half a minute.
Therefore, it must have been a copy of soone else’s original work she had overlooked.
“Copy it?
Sorry, but that’s sothing I, Chen Wei, disdain to do!” Chen Wei grabbed Liu Mi’s shoulders with both hands, pushing her back half a step to create so distance.
“It’s impossible for you to produce this kind of work!” Liu Mi insisted.
“Before you accuse soone, first you need to bring out the evidence.”
Chen Wei’s sharp gaze unexpectedly made Liu Mi feel a tinge of fear.
She unconsciously brought her legs wrapped in crystal stockings together, supporting each other to maintain balance.
“Besides, does this kind of work need to be copied?
I have plenty more where that ca from!” said Chen Wei as he sat back down and picked up the pen, beginning to dab ink again.
I have plenty more!
Heh, Liu Mi thought, Chen Wei was really blowing his own trumpet too loudly—it was as if the sky would split from his boasting.
If there were a competition for tall tales, Chen Wei would surely take the gold!
Approaching Chen Wei, Liu Mi wanted to see what other tricks he could pull.
