A corner of the huge Conference Center.

With Lin Mu Xue's sudden change in attitude, the atmosphere became extremely subtle.

Yao Lingling's colleagues stared blankly at the scene before them, feeling as if they were dreaming.

Yao Lingling, a colleague I often see at the company, is an ordinary college graduate who has been out of school for just over a year. She is being targeted by her superiors because she offended the daughter of a company shareholder.

This was originally a very logical phenomenon, but no one expected that a tall and voluptuous female director of Xingyun International would first emerge to stand up for her and save face.

Now another General Lin, from Beauty Shopping International, has appeared, also wanting to stand up for her.

This plot is absolutely outrageous.

They were even more incredulous than when they first heard that Xiao Mingxuan was the chairman's only son.

Looking at Yao Lingling, who was sandwiched between two women of noble status.

It was as if a torpedo had been thrown into Liang Jiani's head, making a "buzzing" sound.

She was probably the person in the company who had the most contact with Yao Lingling, after all, she used to be her assistant.

She pinched herself hard, the sharp pain reminding her that it was all real.

Yao Lingling, oh Yao Lingling! If you had just said you had such a powerful background, there wouldn't have been so much trouble!

Wen Qiuyue looked at Lin Mu Xue, who had a haughty and superior attitude, and felt like she was going to grind her teeth to dust.

Thinking about her subconscious retreat just now, her body trembled slightly.

Although she didn't know how Lin Mu Xue from Lanfeng International Hotel suddenly became the General Assistant of Confluent Capital, it was clear that she had no time or opportunity to dwell on these things.

Noticing the eye contact between his daughter and Lin Mu Xue, Wen Zhenhua's forehead throbbed violently.

Just what I feared most has come to pass!

"General Lin." Wen Zhenhua quickly composed himself, a gentle smile appearing on his face, his tone tinged with caution, "You know Qiu Yue?"

The atmosphere was extremely tense at this moment, and if it wasn't eased in time, it would definitely affect the cooperation that followed.

As the chairman of Jia Xin Group, he cannot allow his daughter's personal issues to affect the company's interests.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu Xue's lips curled up slightly. "I have indeed met Miss Wen a few times, but the encounters were all unpleasant."

"You—you're talking nonsense!" Wen Qiuyue gritted her teeth. "We've only met once! And you were the one who started this trouble!"

She was so angry that she almost blurted out what she really wanted to say.

She was absolutely certain that this bitch was after her!

Lin Mu Xue said calmly, "Hehe, Miss Wen is still as arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable as ever. She hasn't changed at all compared to the past."

Yao Lingling looked up at Lin Mu Xue, her eyes sparkling.

At this moment, she exudes a powerful aura, and every gesture she makes carries an undeniable air of authority.

She was just a college graduate who had graduated a year ago, and she had an outgoing personality.

She is enthusiastic about both her work and her friends.

How could Li Shumin, a close friend, not feel upset when she was bullied at work for no reason and was laid off because of her?

Realizing Lin Mu Xue's extremely poor attitude towards his daughter, Wen Zhenhua said in a low, solemn voice, "Shut up!"

Wen Qiuyue's body trembled. "Dad!"

Wen Zhenhua turned to the side and glared at her fiercely. "How have I been teaching you? Now that you're in charge of the company, how can you still be so frivolous!"

He was genuinely disappointed in his daughter.

In order to cultivate her, he provided resources and money in the name of Jia Xin Group.

They finally managed to build up a "Moon Attire" brand for her in Hang City, but the operation was a complete mess, and she didn't achieve anything worthwhile.

He was also frequently complained about by people in the group.

In the past, it was one thing for him to provoke or bully the company's employees, but as their father, he would help protect them.

But now that he knows the other party can affect the supply chain of Beauty Shopping International, their lack of discretion is really infuriating.

What he feared even more was that if Wen Qiuyue offended someone even more powerful in the future, it might bring disaster to the entire Jia Xin Group.

So I also wanted to take this opportunity to temper my daughter's temperament.

Wen Qiuyue's eyes were red as she said, "Dad, how could you say that to me!"

Clearly, she didn't understand her father's intention.

In her view, she was now "besieged on all sides," everyone was laughing at her, and her father was even scolding her on behalf of Lin Mu Xue.

Her dignity was completely trampled underfoot.

She especially noticed Lin Mu Xue's gaze, which immediately put her into a state of heightened sensitivity.

Seeing this, Xiao Liguo, who was standing nearby, quickly nudged his son, but Xiao Mingxuan did not move.

Then he stepped forward and said, "Qiuyue, your father is doing this for your own good."

After all, she was his future daughter-in-law, and he and Wen Zhenhua had been friends for many years, so he certainly couldn't watch the father and daughter quarrel at the exhibition.

Wen Qiuyue took a deep breath, lowered her head, and her eyes flashed with intense emotion.

She also knew that in a situation like today, she absolutely could not get into an argument with the other party.

Looking at Wen Qiuyue's posture at this moment and feeling the awe-inspiring gazes around her, Lin Mu Xue felt as if she were floating on air.

That's the feeling!

Wen Zhenhua ignored his daughter and put on a gentle smile again, his tone tinged with apology. "General Lin, I'm truly sorry. Qiuyue is straightforward and sometimes her words and actions are not thoughtful enough. Please forgive her for any offense."

"Mr. Wen, you're too kind." Lin Mu Xue's gaze swept over Wen Qiuyue, her tone calm. "Ling Ling, are you here for the exhibition today? I remember you're a fashion designer from Shangya. Do you have any pieces on display?"

In this respect, Xiao Xue's nose is particularly sensitive.

I just noticed the subtle atmosphere between Yao Lingling, Wen Ruan Wen Qiuyue.

Recalling the previous argument at the Yuhua Business Building, some guesses quickly emerged.

She's a respectable person now, so she can't act like a shrew and directly attack Wen Qiuyue.

Yao Lingling is a perfect excuse.

This is my beloved friend and family Emperor Mu Xue! They'll most likely become teammates on the same team in the future!

She was wronged, and I have to help her get revenge!

Yao Lingling took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your concern, Mu Xue. I did have one, but it was canceled at the last minute, and I'm also leaving Shangya soon."

"Oh?" Lin Mu Xue's eyes lit up, and she asked seriously, "What happened?"

Hearing their conversation, Xiao Liguo's expression instantly changed. "Ling Ling, we can discuss your issue further. As a successful lead designer, the company has indeed failed to provide you with sufficient support. Beautiful Dream is a new brand with its own independent business unit. Ming Xuan will personally handle your situation from now on!"

As he spoke, Xiao Liguo reached out and tugged at his son's arm.

Xiao Mingxuan remained silent.

"No need, Director Xiao." Yao Lingling shook her head vigorously and said, "We've already made things very clear before. Just like you said, there's no need to dwell on this."

Sweat quickly beaded on Xiao Liguo's forehead.

Only then did he truly regret it, and he was extremely remorseful.

Shangya's business has always been limited to the domestic market, and with the current market competition, its sales and business lines have been shrinking.

If it weren't for Jia Xin Group's strong supply chain and factory resources, we might be losing money now.

This is why he values Wen Qiuyue so much.

The best way forward for Shangya is undoubtedly to go global and expand into cross-border markets.

The government promoted this international garment exhibition with the aim of leveraging the global resources and platform advantages of Beauty Shopping International to promote the cross-border business development of the garment industry in Yan Province and to drive the deep integration of local brands with the international market.

For Shangya, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If Yao Lingling had stayed at Shangya and participated in the exhibition according to the normal procedures, given the goodwill Lin Mu Xue showed her, winning an award would have been a sure thing.

Even through this relationship, the entire Shangya can enter the supply chain of Beauty Shopping International.

But now it's all too late.

Lin Mu Xue turned her gaze to Wen Qiuyue again, her expression filled with a strong sense of aggression. "Miss Wen, I think Ling Ling's matter is probably also related to you, isn't it?"

Wen Zhenhua immediately said, "General Lin, there might be some misunderstanding here."

"Hehe." Lin Mu Xue released Yao Lingling's hand, took a step forward, and stood in front of Wen Qiuyue, looking down at her. "Last time at Yuhua Business Building, Miss Wen really spouted nonsense. She not only insulted Ling Ling, but also threatened me."

Now that you can't get revenge on me, you're taking it out on Ling Ling, right?

As far as I know, Ms. Wen is the manager of Moon Dress Clothing and also participated in this exhibition.

As a member of the organizers, I have serious doubts about whether Ms. Wen possesses sufficient professional ethics and standards to participate in such an international event.

Wen Qiuyue's face turned pale instantly, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms.

She had never felt so humiliated or so wronged in her entire life.

But she also knew that for her father and family, the Jia Xin Group was everything.

Her arrogance and domineering attitude in the past stemmed from her belief that she had the right to be so.

However, as one of the representatives of Beauty Shopping International, Lin Mu Xue had no right to act arrogantly towards the other party.

Seeing this scene, Wen Zhenhua's face also turned ugly.

But he was a seasoned businessman, and quickly adjusted his emotions.

He said sincerely, "General Lin, Qiu Yue is young and impetuous. If she has offended you in any way, I hope General Lin can give her a chance to correct her mistakes."

"Chairman Wen is right." Lin Mu Xue nodded with Wei Xiao, then looked at Wen Qiuyue and said, "Ms. Wen, shouldn't you apologize?"

Wen Qiuyue lowered her head, her teeth almost grinding to powder, unable to utter a single word.

Wen Ruan watched this scene quietly, a faint smile on her face.

She is not as naive as Yao Lingling.

Although Xiao Liguo Wen Zhenhua spoke very politely before, they didn't actually take Yao Lingling seriously at all.

Wen Zhenhua said he would help arrange a job, and specifically mentioned that most clothing companies in Yancheng would be suitable.

Besides being a gesture of goodwill, it may also have been a subtle warning.

In other words, if you want to continue working in the clothing industry in Yancheng, you should know when to quit while you're ahead.

However, it is clear that Yao Lingling, who is in her early twenties, is still in the stage of being fearless and naive.

They lack a clear understanding of capital and connections.

If Yao Lingling is really just an ordinary office worker who offended Jia Xin Group Wen Qiuyue, the consequences could be terrifying.

Looking at the tense atmosphere on the scene.

Wen Ruan raised her wrist to check the time and casually said, "There are only 30 minutes left until the opening ceremony. More and more Guest and media will be entering soon."

Wen Zhenhua glanced at his daughter, his face grim, and said, "Qiuyue, apologize!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Qiuyue trembled violently, raised her head, and her eyes were filled with humiliation and resentment.

She stared at Lin Mu Xue for a long while, then said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry."

After saying this, Wen Qiuyue turned around abruptly, lowered her head, and ran towards the exit.

Watching her panicked and bewildered back.

Lin Mu Xue let out a long breath, feeling that a missing piece in her life had been fulfilled, her mind was clear, and her mood was incredibly pleasant.

Once upon a time, Wen Qiuyue pointed her finger at her nose and ruthlessly exposed her in public, saying that she was wearing counterfeit and shoddy products and insulting their brand.

But because of the precious 1,000 yuan part-time job fee, she dared not argue and could only apologize while being despised by everyone.

Now, with the principle of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, "Wen Qiuyue is experiencing the same feelings she had back then.

And this is just the beginning. As her status Emperor Mu Xue rises higher and higher, she will become a complete psychological shadow for Wen Qiuyue.

From now on, just thinking about her will give me nightmares! Hahaha!

Wen Zhenhua, looking away, said calmly, "General Lin, General Wen, Qiu Yue has already apologized. Let's leave it at that. The opening ceremony is about to begin."

Despite having many emotions inside, he remained polite and restrained.

In any case, let's put an end to this turmoil first.

"Okay, Mr. Wen." Lin Mu Xue nodded gently, regaining her previous calm and composed demeanor.

Wen Ruan smiled gently, took Yao Lingling's hand, and asked, "Ling Ling, do you have any thoughts about work? You can tell your older sister about it."

Yao Lingling shook her head blankly, "Today's events were too sudden; I need to calm down first."

Xiao Mingxuan pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

Things have already come to this point; saying anything more would only bring shame upon ourselves.

He also knew that Yao Lingling could never return to Shangya or Beautiful Dream.

For some reason, I felt a sense of indescribable loss and helplessness.

Wen Ruan stroked Yao Lingling's hair and said with concern, "Then think about it first, and plan your future properly. Don't worry about this, I'll take care of it for you."

Yao Lingling nodded gratefully, her eyes slightly reddening. "Thank you, Sister Wen Ruan, thank you so much."

She herself was secondary; the main concern was Li Shumin.

With the current economic climate so bad, companies are laying off employees, and many of their classmates, like Zhang Jiahong before, are still unemployed and preparing for exams.

Li Shumin is just an ordinary assistant and doesn't have any notable works, so finding a job will be particularly difficult for her.

Yao Lingling didn't want to implicate her because of her own affairs.

"You're welcome. Would you like to join us for the opening ceremony?"

Yao Lingling shook her head. "No, I don't have any works to exhibit right now, and I also have a lot of things to take care of."

I need to go to the booth first.

She could imagine how panicked Li Shumin must be, and she had to go and comfort her.

Just then, Lin Mu Xue suddenly turned around, a meaningful smile on her face, "Ling Ling, I remember you have a roommate who works at Huashang Apparel, right? Would you like to consider working with her?"

"This—" Yao Lingling's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes.

She knew that Lin Mu Xue was also the assistant to the director of Huashang Apparel.

If I could work in the same company as Jia Hong and Minmin, Struggle together, and support each other, that would be the best outcome.

Seeing the expression on her face, Lin Mu Xue smiled and said, "No need to rush to make a decision. Let's get Shangya's resignation sorted out first, and then we can take our time with the rest. Let's keep in touch on WeChat, and feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Now that her Great Accomplishment of the Holy Body and she has completely transformed, she has the idea of taking on a younger sister.

Ling Ling is quite nice.

Like her, they all harbored a deep dislike for Wen Qiuyue, and she also had many advantages: Tang Song's junior, cheerful, beautiful, and small-chested.
