C20 Is That So?

Is that so?

Sheng Jingxun's thin lips pursed into a line, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down. He looked down at Gu Yuling from above, and his cold face revealed a trace of aggression.

Under the heavy pressure, Gu Yuling only felt a chill in her heart. She firmly bit her lips and did not dare to make a sound.

She knew that Sheng Jingxun had been staring at her, so she did not dare to raise her head.

"You will fulfill your wish." After saying that, Sheng Jingxun walked towards the door, but stopped when the door was closed. "But not now."

Hearing this, Gu Yuling looked in the direction of the door in astonishment. She only heard a bang. Her eyelashes subconsciously trembled, but there was some anticipation in her heart.

...

It was a sunny afternoon.

Sunlight shone through the mottled shadows of the trees on the ground, forming small spots of light. The fallen leaves made creaking sounds under their feet, causing the beautiful autumn day to seep into their hearts.

But for Gu Ranjia, such an afternoon was no less than the end of her life.

She was restless as she held a cup of coffee in her hand and paced back and forth. Her brows were tightly knitted, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

"Jiajia? What's wrong with you? Lee Zhi stared at her for a long time and finally couldn't help but ask.

"I'm fine!" Gu Ranjia impatiently growled. There was a clear trace of disgust in her eyes.

Lee Zhi was shocked and kept quiet.

She stayed up all night and still could not make the work in the design. Today was the delivery date. In a short while, she would be baptized by the storm.

Gu Ranjia's heart suddenly jumped, and her breathing became rapid. She searched in her mind for all the reasons that could explain herself.

God knows how many times she searched Gu Yuling's room at home, but she did not find anything.

She suddenly realized that she had walked into Gu Yuling's trap without any suspense.

Damn it!

She cursed in her heart and her face turned green and white. The hand holding the coffee cup trembled slightly and her footsteps also slowed down.

Hence, Humann called her a few times but she did not realize it.

"Gu Ranjia!" Humann frowned and shouted again.

"Ah?"

Gu Ranjia suddenly woke up and looked up. A pair of blank eyes made Humann have a bad premonition in her heart. She took a deep breath and said, "Your work has not been handed over yet."

"I," Gu Ranjia paused and smiled awkwardly, "I have not made it out yet..."

"Sister Hu, give me a few more days and I will definitely hand it over!" She hurriedly added on with a pleading look on her face.

Her hands trembled even more violently, and her smile froze on her face. She looked very unnatural, and coffee constantly spilled on the carpet.

Humann saw her nervousness and her eyes also became sharp, "No, I think I have already told you before. The collaborator is now waiting in the conference room. How do you want me to explain?"

"If you can't hand over your work today, you don't have to take the identity of the designer. Glory World wants abilities, not a vase that only knows how to dress up."

When Humann scolded people, she never showed mercy. In just a few short sentences, it made the other people in the office click their tongues. They all looked at Gu Ranjia with sympathy.

Lee Zhi wanted to stand out several times but was stopped by his colleagues at the side.

"Moreover," Seeing that she did not speak, the coldness on the corner of Humann's mouth became more obvious. She crossed her arms over her chest and her tone became as cold as the winter wind. "The Project Yellow is in your hands. You will be responsible for the compensation."

She did not care about the project this time. What she cared about was how to chase these vixens out of Glory World.

Whether it was Gu Yuling or Gu Ranjia, they were both a thorn in her flesh. They were the flowers and plants that she followed Sheng Jingxun on the road.

Since they were wild flowers, it was better to pull them out.

Humann had always been a person who could not tolerate sand in her eyes. At this moment, she tightly grasped this opportunity and wholeheartedly wanted to chase Gu Ranjia out of the company.

Even though the Gu family was large and powerful, they could not bear the huge compensation this time. Gu Ranjia understood this in her heart very well.

The other party was a veteran company. When there was a mistake in the design plan, they did not cancel the contract. It was on Sheng Jingxun's account.

Now that such a thing had happened again, it was likely that she would not be able to escape this time.

Gu Ranjia bit her lower lip until blood flowed out. The smell of blood slowly spread in her mouth. She felt bitter in her heart but she had to muster up her courage and say, "Actually, that design is Gu Yuling's. I made a mistake."

When those words came out, there was an uproar and the office was filled with the discussion of colleagues.

A trace of understanding flashed across Humann's eyes and the smile on her lips became even more proud, "Back then you promised to hand over the design work but now something happened and you tell me you made a mistake?"

"Sorry, I only found out today but I really did not mean to lie to everyone. Sister Hu, I want to ask for your forgiveness..." Gu Ranjia made a pitiful appearance.

Her eyes were filled with tears and grievances. In order to express her sincerity, she kept bowing to everyone to gain more sympathy.

In this office, Gu Ranjia clearly knew her advantage.

"Glory World doesn't accept employees like you. Get lost." A deep voice suddenly sounded. Everyone, including Humann, was shocked.

She quickly turned her head and saw Sheng Jingxun standing at the door with a strong momentum. The surrounding air pressure became lower and lower.

Gu Ranjia's heart sank but Humann's eyes lit up. She immediately smiled and said, "Director Sheng, I was going to report to you later!"

"No need to trouble Director Hu. I heard it clearly." Sheng Jingxun's brows were filled with gloominess and his hawk-like eyes were emitting a sharp light that was filled with coldness.

The corners of his eyes slightly raised, and his face was cold as he said, "Did I not say it clearly enough? All the designers in this office were carefully selected. As for you... I've never seen your name before. Who exactly let you in Glory World? "

Yes, he had already asked his secretary to investigate. During that interview, Gu Yuling did not arrive and Gu Ranjia surprisingly went smoothly.

In the process of work after that, he paid more attention to Gu Ranjia. Gradually, he also found that Gu Ranjia's ability was indeed ordinary.

Hearing this, Gu Ranjia's face turned pale. She could not refute it.

"Hua -" The surrounding colleagues cried out in surprise again.

Gu Ranjia felt suffocated and almost fainted a few times. She sobbed softly, "I did not lie to everyone on purpose. Furthermore, I have already admitted my mistake..."

She raised her face that was crying like a weeping flower, wanting to get Sheng Jingxun's heartache.

"Don't let me see you again. Get lost."

Sheng Jingxun frowned in disgust and spat out a word. The determination in his tone silenced the people who tried to plead for Gu Ranjia.

Everyone knew Sheng Jingxun's temper. No one wanted to pull the fur off a tiger.

Unless they did not want to live anymore.
