Chapter 666: Kicked Away with One Kick
Du Xueqi followed Chen Yingyu to the outside of the villa.Chen Yingyu was in a state of dazed anxiety, her mind distracted.
Du Xueqi found it amusing and puzzling, and reassured her, "Invite you over just to meet the president, measure your body, so that a wedding dress fitting the president’s temperament and figure can be made, it’s not like you’re going to the guillotine, what are you afraid of?"
Walking along, she had already noticed Chen Yingyu’s fear, which she couldn’t understand.
It’s just designing a wedding dress, what’s the big deal?
She didn’t know what Chen Yingyu was thinking, but she had a wrong guess. In her view, it must be that Chen Yingyu felt she couldn’t handle the task, hence her nervousness, treading on thin ice.
Du Xueqi certainly didn’t understand that Chen Yingyu had changed from proud and confident to this appearance because of warnings from the Five Families.
If she knew about Chen Yingyu’s emotional changes, she wouldn’t have given her a good face. Just for Chen Yingyu’s boastful remark that even the top woman must wear a wedding dress designed by her, it could offend many people.
"Afraid?" Chen Yingyu was taken aback, quickly adjusted her emotions, and said with lingering fear, "President Chu is like a fairy, I’m just a small figure able to design her wedding dress, it’s a blessing of three lifetimes, I only fear doing my work poorly, and if I were to offend President Chu, things would get bad."
She now felt like a lapdog, doing her utmost to please President Chu at all costs.
The previous arrogance and pride vanished completely.
Thinking of the Five Families’ warning, she couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart and a drumbeat on her scalp.
"Don’t pressure yourself, the president is very peaceful and won’t make things difficult for you." Du Xueqi comforted.
"Peaceful? But this, it’s too peaceful, otherwise the Five Families wouldn’t have acted like slaves in secret. Even if President Chu is a bit forceful, that’s justifiable." Chen Yingyu murmured complexly within her heart.
She looked at Du Xueqi with gratitude and said, "Miss Du, thank you for enlightening me."
"You’re welcome, just do your job well." Du Xueqi said casually.
Chen Yingyu changed from being as proud as a princess to this state all because of the Five Families’ warning. The cause, seemingly President Chu’s pressure, was actually Ye Fan’s lingering influence that terrified the Five Families to the extreme.
As for these reasons, Chen Yingyu naturally had no right to know.
Just as Chen Yingyu adjusted her mood and Du Xueqi took her to meet Mengyao.
A business car stopped beside them, and two people got out, it was Lillian and a female assistant.
Lillian and her companion held a devout and respectful posture.
"Miss Lillian!"
"Why is she here!"
"She’s an international top wedding dress design master, how come she stoops to come to Huaxia!"
"Moreover, she vowed never to set foot on this land that hasn’t birthed a world-class wedding dress!"
"How is that possible!"
"This isn’t right!"
Chen Yingyu was scared silly, her eyes widened abruptly, utterly stunned.
"Could she be here to design President Chu’s wedding dress? My god, this is too unbelievable!" Upon realizing this, Chen Yingyu immediately covered her mouth, too shocked to make a sound.
Though she enjoyed the reputation of being the top wedding dress designer domestically, compared to Lillian, the gap was vast, akin to the difference between a grandmaster and disciples.
"Miss Lillian, I’m Chen Yingyu. In Paris, I attended your lectures. According to an old saying in my country, once a teacher always a teacher. From a certain perspective, you’re considered my mentor." Chen Yingyu couldn’t stay calm, like a startled bird fluttering to Lillian’s side, unable to contain her excitement and loss of composure.
"You are?" Lillian slightly frowned, impatiently asking a question.
"I’m also in the field of wedding dress design, but of course, compared to you, my achievements fall short." Chen Yingyu quickly said.
"Oh." Lillian responded with disinterest, then walked past Chen Yingyu, heading straight to Du Xueqi. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
In her eyes, it was as if Chen Yingyu didn’t exist, utterly ignoring her.
Chen Yingyu was extremely embarrassed, feeling as if she’d been slapped after extending a smiling face, but she knew her place, not daring to show dissatisfaction.
"You’re President Chu’s secretary, Miss Du Xueqi, right?" Lillian stood before Du Xueqi, politely inquired with respect.
She naturally understood some circumstances, so she was familiar with Du Xueqi.
"I am." Du Xueqi nodded, then asked curiously, "And you are?"
Lillian and the female assistant, not upset about Du Xueqi not recognizing them or knowing their fame, would usually mock someone as ignorant in other situations. But now they remained respectful, remembering well Fire Phoenix’s advice to serve their master like slaves, not daring to forget.
So, even in treating Du Xueqi, they were very respectful.
Because their masters were Ye Fan and Mengyao, and those around the masters were not to be offended by slaves.
Actually, when dealing with Chen Yingyu, Lillian was already quite polite since she didn’t know what kind of relationship Chen Yingyu had with her masters. After realizing there was no connection, she became much colder, didn’t even bother to pay attention to Chen Yingyu.
Lillian introduced herself, then confidently said, "Having me design President Chu’s wedding dress is absolutely the best choice. I will definitely create a perfect wedding dress."
"I understand your intentions, but whether you can have the honor of designing the president’s wedding dress depends on the president’s decision. Let me consult with the president before speaking further." Du Xueqi, unfazed by Lillian’s renowned name, spoke professionally.
"Miss Lillian coming personally to design President Chu’s wedding dress is an honor for President Chu, isn’t it? Standing in her way, aren’t you ignoring Miss Lillian’s prestige? Do you know how famous Miss Lillian is? As if you, a mere secretary, could provoke her." Chen Yingyu loudly accused.
Upon hearing this, Du Xueqi, Lillian, and the female assistant, all three angrily focused their gaze on Chen Yingyu.
"You foolish woman, if your stupidity causes us to offend our masters, you’re doomed." Lillian and the female assistant thought indignantly.
"Who do you think you are? The president isn’t someone a small figure like you can belittle." Du Xueqi got angry, stepped forward in two strides, and kicked directly.
"Ouch!" Chen Yingyu screamed as she flew, then landed with a whimper.
