Chapter 876: Let Mi Nuo Jump Across a Pit! (2)

It wasn’t the first time that Mi Nuo had partic.i.p.ated in a designer’s socializing event.

In the past, when she was the Director of Design of the Imperial Group, people had clamored for her attention here. But now… the people surrounding her couldn’t get away from her faster. When she looked in their direction, those people would hurriedly avoid her gaze, as though they were afraid that she would greet them. They didn’t even want to meet her gaze, let alone speak to her.

In the past, the people who would flatter her did so in order to get some news about what was trendy that year.

In the world of fas.h.i.+on design, although each designer had their own designs, the big brands were the ones leading the trends.

For instance, the trend last summer was a long white dress. For winter this year, it was wine-red garments. It wasn’t because everyone felt that wine-red garments were beautiful this year, but rather, the big brands were leading this trend, causing people to think, hey, the trend this year is wine-red. Everyone, please buy more wine-red clothing.

The Gu Corporation was not one of these big brands leading the trends.

The leader in the world of fas.h.i.+on design was the Imperial Group. The Imperial Group was the entire fas.h.i.+on industry’s model.

Thus, in past years, the designers from other corporations would tail behind her just to get some accurate news. But this year…

She saw everyone crowding around Si Jingyu, and she felt this inexplicable feeling wash over her.

She stood alone in a corner, silently watching the commotion. A sense of loneliness came over her.

What had she worked hard for her whole life?

The job that everyone was envious of was no longer hers.

Mr. Si, who everyone admired and praised, had divorced her.

She was unable to conceive, and she could only continue on as the Gu Corporation’s Lead Designer. In the end, she still had to ask others for favors.

Everyone was only improving with time. But why was she regressing?

Her mood irritable, she picked up a gla.s.s of red wine and took a sip. Then, she caught a glimpse of Zhuang Nainai among the crowd.

Her depression and irritability seemed to have reached a breaking point. Mi Nuo narrowed her eyes and walked straight up to Zhuang Nainai.

Upon reaching Zhuang Nainai, she said sarcastically, “Zhuang Nainai, congratulations on dodging that crisis the last time around~”

Zhuang Nainai turned around and saw that it was Mi Nuo speaking. She seemed a little surprised and angry as she said, “Mi Nuo, you have the cheek to say this! How did our company provoke you in any way? Such that you’ve managed to do such a thing to a newly-minted colleague in the fraternity?!”

Seeing how Zhuang Nainai was angry, Mi Nuo felt her hatred being dissipated and a flash of exhilaration swept past her. She smirked. “Your company didn’t offend me, but you did! Since you, Zhuang Nainai, dare to challenge us, then you have to pay the price!”

Zhuang Nainai sneered. “Pay the price? Pay what price? I have to thank you for being so vicious about this matter. As our company faced that problem, it gave me the chance to join the company as a shareholder. Also, thank you for forking out 200,000 first on our behalf. I’m not sure if you’re aware of this, but the stock that our company had was sold for 3,000,000. We didn’t have any projects in the first month after we started up, but your rash tactics have allowed us to roll in the riches!”

After she heard this, Mi Nuo’s expression darkened. Her arrogance also disappeared in an instant.
