A balding fat man walked in, accompanied by a glamorous foreign woman wearing glasses and a uniform.
"Yo? President Lin, are you rallying your employees?" The balding fat man glanced around the private room, his gaze finally resting on Lin Xi, he said teasingly.
"What are you doing here?" Seeing the balding fat man, Lin Xi slightly frowned.
She naturally recognized who this person was.
It was Zhang Biao, the president of Yiyang Group!
The woman beside him seed dressed like a secretary, but in terms of temperant, she didn't look like one at all.
And sohow, she looked vaguely familiar.
"Hehe, of course, I am here for the sa reason as President Lin, to participate in this fashion exhibition. We'll be competing on the sa stage, so please go easy on us, President Lin," Zhang Biao said with a cheerful smile.
While his mouth spoke of Lin Xi being easy, his eyes did not show the slightest humility.
Lin Xi was naturally aware that Yiyang Group was also participating in the fashion exhibition.
But she didn't expect them to co and provoke her directly.
"I wonder how prepared President Lin is? I heard that the judges this ti are very strict, don't you think so, Luther?" Zhang Biao said with a smile.
Luther!
Upon hearing Zhang Biao's reference to the glamorous woman next to him, everyone from Yina frowned.
Because, they have heard this na.
No wonder Luther seed sowhat familiar.
Turns out, this Luther is actually one of the judges for this fashion exhibition!
Although just a minor judge and having very little weight in scoring, if she could guarantee a high score for them and then mark Yina Group low, this favoritism could significantly disadvantage Yina Group.
No wonder Zhang Biao was so confident and dared to co and provoke directly, he had actually bribed one of the judges!
Moreover, from the looks of it, it wasn't just a simple bribe.
Realizing that Zhang Biao had tead up with a judge, everyone from Yina Group felt quite heavy.
In this fashion exhibition in Huaxia Country, there were several clothing companies present, but not many could compete with Yina Group, amongst which Yiyang Group was the biggest competitor.
And the opponent had even bribed a judge.
This was definitely not good news for Yina Group.
"No need for President Zhang to worry about that," Lin Xi said coldly.
Seeing Lin Xi's cold expression, Zhang Biao felt several emotions welling up inside.
Frustration, a desire to conquer, and annoyance.
Yes, he was very annoyed.
Last ti, when they were sure to win, he didn't expect to lose the land to Yina eventually.
Moreover, they initially had to pay only five hundred million.
But the predominant emotion was still conquest.
The more dissatisfied he was with this woman, the more he wanted to conquer her.
Imagining the scene of Lin Xi begging under him after being conquered.
"Well then, President Lin, see you tomorrow," Zhang Biao said as he directly left with the glamorous foreign woman.
After Zhang Biao left, the morale of Yina Group appeared sowhat low.
After all, the opponent had bribed a judge, inherently having an advantage.
Even if the opponent didn't win the prize, if that judge directly gave Yina a low score, it would be even more difficult for Yina to win.
"Everyone, don't get discouraged, although he has bribed Luther, as far as I know, Luther carries very little weight among the judges, so we still have a chance," Lin Xi, seeing the low morale, started to encourage her employees.
We haven't even competed yet, and we already lost in terms of morale.
Zhang Biao, who had not yet left outside the door, heard Lin Xi's words, and suddenly watched Luther next to him with a sardonic smile, saying, "Luther, did you hear that? They say your influence isn't strong."
The woman nad Luther sneered: "Indeed, my influence is not great, but I know many judges, and with a simple maneuver, even if Yiyang Group doesn't win, I can ensure that Yina Group won't even get a hair."
Zhang Biao's face showed a look of satisfaction, and he smiled, "Then we'll have to trouble Miss Luther."
Turning his head to glance at the direction of the box, a mocking smile appeared on Zhang Biao's face, "Lin Xi, just wait. I have a huge surprise waiting for you."
Inside the box.
"That's right, isn't he just a parvenu who made his fortune by pirating our designs? Are we supposed to be afraid of him?" Tang Qian also said.
Finally, the mood among the people improved slightly.
However, Zhang Biao's appearance still left a shadow over everyone from the Yina Group.
...
Next to the natural hot spring lay a body with a striking figure.
"Mada, the Fashion Association called inviting you to attend tomorrow's fashion show," Diana's housekeeper Louis said to Diana, who was soaking in the hot spring.
"Tell them I won't go," Diana refused without a second thought.
Just kidding, she had just survived an assassination attempt, she could hardly catch her breath, let alone have the interest to attend such boring events.
Yes, for Diana, even the world-renowned Paris Fashion Week was boring.
She had attended similar events many tis.
Many awards were predetermined.
Either that or the judges were bribed in advance.
In her view, these deceptive events were a waste of ti.
It was simply deaning for her.
Of course, that's not to say that truly excellent works couldn't erge at a fashion show.
Every fashion week, there are a few very outstanding works.
These works are so excellent that even without any connections, they would stand out.
But, due to various unknown aspects of these events, winning an award was as difficult as reaching the heavens.
"Okay, mada, I will tell them right away."
...
Su Chen did not return to Diana's mansion.
After all, his contract with Diana had already been concluded, and it seed inappropriate to go back.
He had to settle for a small hotel on the outside.
There was no helping it, he didn't want to, but he was broke.
Even the money for this modest hotel was borrowed from Yan—a few hundred US dollars.
He had also thought about going to Lin Xi, who was certainly staying in a luxury hotel.
Maybe, just maybe, upon seeing him, his beloved wife would be touched and share her bed with him?
Well, such nearly impossible fantasies shouldn't be entertained.
However, just as Su Chen was preparing to sleep, he suddenly received a phone call.
"My dear Chen..."
Hearing this hair-raising voice, Su Chen knew who was calling—it was Dilasi!
Previously, he would call him dear Mr. Su Chen.
Now he went directly to calling him dear Chen.
It truly sent shivers down his spine.
"You have dialed a number that is not in service, please call again later!" If he had known it was that dead ghoul calling, he wouldn't have answered; he could only pretend to be the system now.
"Dear Chen, I know it's you, stop pretending, I called using a Huaxia number, yet you answered in English, and I would never mistake your voice," ca Dilasi's laughter through the phone.
