Chapter 76: The Little Thing Still Has Two Faces

Lu Xiwán turned her head, squinting slightly, and glanced at the design draft on the screen.

"Everyone has their own way of thinking; some are suited to long‑term brainstorming, others can produce excellent work in a short time. This can't be measured by time."

Whether it's fair is not for Yun Ruojin to decide.

A burst of applause erupted on the spot, and Fu Sijue nodded imperceptibly.

He strongly agreed with wan's words.

Yun Ruojin was left speechless, but Xie Zian naturally took over the conversation, made a joke, and the matter was considered settled.

The competition results were announced on the spot, and Lu Xiwán was, without doubt, the champion.

Under Yun Ruojin's resentful gaze, Lu Xiwán calmly lifted the trophy.

Only when she locked eyes with Yun Ruojin's sparking stare did Lu Xiwán feel puzzled.

When did she ever become linked with this young lady?

Lu Xiwán ignored Yun Ruojin's stare and, under the flash, dryly delivered a long string of thank‑you remarks, causing even the eager reporter to drop offstage.

Luozhou had long been waiting behind.

"You're so decisive in leaving; we can't get out for a while either, so why not let them interview us?"

Lu Xiwán shrugged, "Yunsheng Studio is your studio; you entered the competition to make Yunsheng known. I'm not interested in any of that."

Wearing a mask while covering her mouth made it hard to breathe; why did Lu Xiwán subject herself to such suffering?

Meanwhile, Fu Sijue, who had finished watching the competition and was about to leave, was called by a cloyingly sweet female voice.

Yun Ruojin, in high heels, ran to his side.

"I knew President Fu was responsible; I didn't expect to meet him here. I was planning to find time to visit him in person. Hello, I'm Yun Ruojin."

Yun Ruojin extended her hand gracefully, but the man before her merely looked at her indifferently.

"Miss Yun, you need something from me?"

They had indeed met before, at his and Lu Xiwán's wedding.

The Yun Family had been expanding abroad, and their relationship with the Fu Family was merely a standard partnership.

Fu Sijue considered that he and Yun Ruojin weren't close enough to warrant a special visit.

"President Fu paid a hefty sum to bring me back from abroad; of course I must properly thank President Fu for his recognition."

Fu Sijue paid no mind to whatever Yun Ruojin said, his gaze fixed on a figure that rushed past behind her.

Retracting his gaze, Fu Sijue said impatiently, "That was a decision by the Human Resources Department; Miss Yun, go thank them."

He hasn't even reached the point where he meddles in every matter.

Yun Ruojin didn't feel embarrassed, let out a light laugh twice and again stood in front of Fu Sijue.

"President Fu don't understand my meaning?" Her eyes could draw out a thread‑like sweetness, and Fu Sijue instinctively turned his head away.

"Don't understand."

Fu Sijue's hand was grabbed by Yun Ruojin, "President Fu, why are you in such a hurry?"

From a distance, Lu Xiwán halted, caught between a rock and a hard place.

She hadn't intended to witness this scene…

Fu Sijue shook off Yun Ruojin's hand, his gaze sharp as he glanced at her.

"Miss Yun, have some self‑respect."

Having said that, he turned and strode briskly toward Lu Xiwán's direction.

Lu Xiwán, from afar, sensed an unusual aura.

Gu Qingmeng had just left when Yun Ruojin appeared… Fu Sijue's rotten peach blossom kept blooming one after another.

Lu Xiwán couldn't dodge in time and was caught squarely.

Probably everyone who likes Fu Sijue shares a trait: they aren't especially afraid of setbacks.

Yun Ruojin also chased after, her gaze, like a lingering blade, locked onto Lu Xiwán.

"I just looked at your design; may I ask if you're interested in joining the Fu Clan? Our employee benefits would be higher than Yunsheng Studio's."

Fu Sijue, modest and courteous, extended an olive branch, his demeanor now completely different from when he had spoken with Yun Ruojin earlier.

Lu Xiwán couldn't help but burst into laughter.
