My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy-Chapter 300 - It’s very simple to deal with a person_1

Chapter 300: Chapter 300 It’s very simple to deal with a person_1

I arrived at the venue of the party swiftly.

As per regulations, we, the designers who are eligible for the award, should enter the venue in advance.

I was a little nervous and went to the restroom to adjust my wig lest there was any mishap later.

After all, my wig had fallen to the ground during the tussle with Gu Yuanzhou, and it needed re-styling and a touchup of my makeup.

Unexpectedly, on my way to the entrance, I bumped into Ye Mengyan again.

At that moment, Ye Mengyan was holding a female staff member’s hand, imploring in a low voice,

“We have seen them; the series from Tianjiao Company are not acceptable; they are plagiarized and violate the contest rules. If you select them as the winner, it will be a joke.”

“Miss Ye, this is a decision made by the entire judging panel. Although I’m in charge, I can’t change the result.”

“Don’t give me that! I know the unspoken rules. All these competitions are a farce. It’s all about giving someone else an advantage, and whoever pays the most wins. How about this, name your price! As long as you can make me the first, I’m okay.”

This is a great opportunity!

I took out my phone and recorded this scene, then swiftly uploaded the short video online, alongside a caption:

“The Chief Designer of Zhenyi Company attempting to buy victory with money at a Hong Kong fashion competition.”

The news had just been posted.

Ye Mengyan looked up at me.

She rushed over to me, visibly tense, and questioned me,

“Song Xiaoyun, what were you recording just now?”

“Why should I tell you?”

Ye Mengyan was furious, she stomped her foot, her face distorting with anger.

“Did you just secretly record me? Don’t deny it, I saw it!”

I looked at her and smiled, then said,

“Oh, yes! Such juicy scandal, of course, I had to capture it. What’s the matter, you did all this, and afraid of others finding out?”

Humiliated and angry, Ye Mengyan started pointing her finger at me, very aggressively.

“I command you to delete all the footage you just recorded!”

“You command me? Excuse me, but I haven’t figured out who you think you are yet!”

When Ye Mengyan realized threats were useless, she changed tactics,

“Give me your phone! Give me your phone, quickly, do you hear me?”

“No, sorry!”

“You shameless wretch, what did you record just now?”

Ye Mengyan was livid, rapidly losing her patience.

She lost her cool and started spewing vulgarities, even attempting to snatch my phone.

There was no way I would let her succeed. I kept retreating while keeping her at bay.

“Actually, there’s no use even if you delete it now because the footage I took has already been uploaded online. Why don’t you take a look at it yourself.”

Hearing this, Ye Mengyan was no longer in a mood to argue with me. She hastily took out her phone and began looking for the news online.

Taking advantage of this, I left the scene.

I had achieved my aim, so why bother arguing with her anymore? Let her sort it out.

A few minutes later, I entered the award ceremony.

At this moment, the award ceremony officially began.

I was sitting in the third row from the front. On turning my head, I realized that Gu Yuanzhou was seated four places to my left.

Just as I glanced at him, he returned my gaze.

I quickly withdrew my gaze and sat up straight.

The host on the stage began presenting the entries for this competition. I paid close attention to this part.

In them, indeed, was the design Ye Mengyan had submitted for Zhenyi Company…

Having taken a quick glance, I couldn’t help but smirk.

No wonder Ye Mengyan secretly tried to bribe the staff. Her design lacked inspiration and creativity. It was ordinary, somewhat conservative and outdated.

She wouldn’t even be in the running for any worthy rank in this nomination lineup.

Perhaps Gu Yuanzhou must have stuffed a substantial amount of money into the organizer’s pocket to barely get her nominated.

At this, I saw through Ye Mengyan completely.

A designer without a hint of creativity, she wasn’t the right fit for this business. I just cannot understand Gu Yuanzhou’s thinking.

Yet he chose her.

As I pondered this, the host announced the award-winning design.

“Our third place award goes to, a creation dubbed ‘Paris Spring’, submitted by Zhenyi Company. Alright, let’s welcome our designer Miss Ye Mengyan to the stage! Also, Miss Jiang and Miss Zhu from Tianmeng Company…”

Upon hearing this, I couldn’t help but curl my lips in satisfaction.

Oh, third place!

So it really was about money!

But, I guess, this isn’t the award Ye Mengyan had in mind, is it?

Nevertheless, giving her this place is already a favor to Gu Yuanzhou.

And just in time, Ye Mengyan rushed back from wherever she was. Even though third place had three winners, she didn’t stand out at all.

Despite her golden gown from a top-tier designer, it didn’t suit her at all.

This woman was naturally not aristocratic or confident. Standing on stage, hands clenched together, her eyes darting around nervously- she looked incredibly out of place…

It was like a little girl wearing clothes stolen from an adult; lacking confidence, afraid of being busted.

For her, this award ceremony felt like a punishment.

I got myself a coffee, took a delicate sip, and continued to watch the drama unfold.

Next up was the announcement for the second prize.

It was a French-style dress from a luxury brand. Although the style was a bit conservative and old-fashioned, it excelled in craftsmanship…

Competing here was, in itself, a way to broaden one’s horizons and gather experiences.

A lot could be learned here.

I often wondered, if Yinuo hadn’t had the accident, he would surely have been here with me.

We would probably be hand in hand…

Caught off guard, Gu Yuanzhou had somehow seated himself next to me.

Leaning towards me, he murmured in my ear,

“Do you have any comments to make?”

I shot him a disdainful glance and replied,

“Thanks to Ye Mengyan, the standards of Zhenyi Company have plummeted. Prior to Ye Mengyan, Zhenyi Company had a fairly decent reputation. Now, there’s no difference between Zhenyi’s fashion and the boutique clothes from the market. It seems like you’re planning to cater to the lower-end consumers now?”

Gu Yuanzhou glanced at me,

“Are you belittling me?”

“Belittle? You’re over-thinking. You’re on the verge of being phased out by the market. Women’s aesthetic sense is very refined and foresighted. An unappealing female designer could lead a lot of female consumers to reject your brand… Don’t believe me? Just wait and see after the fashion competition, your company’s sales performance will plummet.”

Gu Yuanzhou probably wasn’t listening to my rant.

Or maybe, he thought Ye Mengyan was the best.

He didn’t refute me.

Instead he asked,

” Do you think your work can win?”

“No way!”

“You’re not confident?”

“Is it a matter of confidence? It’s clearly a matter of integrity! Mr. Gu, could you please open your eyes to see what kind of trash the woman you like really is!”

I couldn’t suppress my frustration at him any longer.

Gu Yuanzhou calmly responded,

“Your heart is too dark, the world isn’t as chaotic as you see it to be!”

“Oh really? Mr. Gu, you speak so nonchalantly. Try having your head knocked off by a car, then come and talk to me about these big principles.”

My jabs were unusually sharp and my voice once again rose,

People around us heard and started to turn towards us.

Meanwhile, the host finally announced the name of the grand prize winner.
