Husband Is Too Sweet! - Chapter 32

After the incident, Li Yi Feng had tried to find out who had interfered. The mastermind obviously knew more about Li Yi Feng than he had thought. He had gotten rid everything that was connected to himself, not leaving behind any trace. The mastermind had spies in the Su family, and probably around Li Yi Feng too. The only clue that was left behind was the fact that this was somehow connected to Li Yi Feng. He had thought the target was Yu Yan, but he had been wrong. The target had been him! The poisoning had been done by his enemy, but who that enemy was, he did not know.

After thoroughly checking, again and again, he was sure that no traces were left. He could only temporarily give up the mastermind and go after Yun Feng. This time, however, he would secretly inquire about her. He will find proof that she was connected to all of this. If he imprisoned her like the couple, the mastermind might get rid of her before he got anything worthwhile out of her.

As each day passed, Yu Yan was getting closer to finishing up her new outfits for the winter collections. Almost being finished and still having time, she found herself having a lot more free time than planned. When she started to work she had been so focused on work that she had not had time to do anything else. She had come earlier than everyone else and left later as well.

Realising that she had not made time to get to know her colleagues, she decided it was time to do just that. However, she was struck by another problem. Who exactly was part of the designer department? She had worked on a whole collection alone and interacted with only one person, who she had ordered around for the past months. What was her name? Fu Xiao Min?

Deciding to get to know her colleagues, Yu Yan went to work. Instead of arriving early, she went in later. This way she could meet everyone in the office unlike before when she was busily working in her office, without stepping a foot out.

Walking into the designing department, she found people busily running back and forth. How was she supposed to get their attention? While she was standing still trying to find the one face she knew, someone bumped into her.

“Ah!”

Yu Yan was surprised and turned around to look. Behind her, a girl was holding a white dress that now had coffee stains on it. The girl looked at the dress in distress before she looked up at Yu Yan furiously. Glaring at her, the girl screamed. “You! Look what you’ve done! My masterpiece! You ruined it!”

The girl’s screaming quickly caught everyone’s attention. Someone saw the sate of the dress, and mumbled: “Zi Wei has been working hard for five years before she was allowed to design a dress herself, and now it’ been ruined”

“It’s not easy to get such an opportunity. She might have to work under lead designer Huang for a few more years before she gets another opportunity.”

“This was her chance to prove herself, and if everything went well, she could have become in charge of a collection for the next season.”

Though the people tried to keep it quiet as they whispered, it was not hard to hear what they were sating. However, how was this Yu Yan’s fault? She had been standing still when this woman bumped into her from behind. Looking at the angry woman, Yu Yan did not say anything, waiting to see what she would do.

“I’ve been working on my new design for a year now, and you dare to ruin it! What’s with that look? Who do you think you are to come one here and act arrogantly?!” The woman continued on. She looked up and down Yu Yan and sneered. Thought the clothes looked good, they were not labelled. By the looks of it the woman before her she was not a rich heiress. She had never seen her before. Even the interns, wore designer clothes. Making sure this was a woman she could offend, she continued to scold. “Are your eyes for decorations? Do you think, this is something a beggar like you could pay for? Why haven’t the guards thrown her out yet?”

Yu Yan was a bit shocked by how shameless this woman was. It seemed people like Yun Feng was everywhere in this line of work. She looked down at the dress. It was so mainstream, nothing special that made it stand out. No originality.

Looking back at the screaming woman Yu Yan finally answered. “This dress is so bad anyway, it wouldn’t have made it even if it wasn’t ruined.”

The woman flared up. Pointing at Yu Yan as shrieked. “Y-you! How. Dare. You! What would a nobody like you know about designing! After ruining my masteries, you still dare to talk back?!”

“Why wouldn’t I talk? How could that be considered a masterpiece? You call yourself a designer, but make something unoriginal like this dress? Not a single thing that stands out! What are you that scared that your design would fail? Making something that has no distinctiveness?”

The people looked at the dress. They had to admit that what the stranger said was true. The dress was quite plain. Seeing everyone’s gazes as if agreeing with Wang Zi Wei flushed. How dared this nobody to shame her and make her a laughingstock? How much hardship had she gone through to reach this point? She could not let this woman go! How else could she explain to chief designer Huang?
