Su Yan smiled at her and articulated, “My apologies, Miss Xin. Miss Wen is our only in-house designer. The celebrity Jue recently shot her photo book at our studio. Her imperial costumes, which were designed by Miss Wen, received a lot of good feedback.”
He paused before continuing with a smile. “But of course, if Miss Xin will not agree to it, then it’ll be a pity. I’m afraid you may have to source for another studio.”
There was already a hint of impatience in his tone. Those who knew him were well aware that he worked according to his feelings.
Xin Yanting knitted her eyebrows and raised her voice. “What attitude is this?”
As usual, Su Yan was nonchalant. “How does Miss Xin want me to reply?”
“You. You.” Xin Yanting stomped her feet and snorted.
A haughty snort was usually followed by a haughty departure. But instead, Miss Xin gritted her teeth and added, “Alright, alright. Let her be my designer. We’ll see how far her capabilities would go.”
She clenched her fist tight before casting a vicious glare at Wen Xuxu. “Wen Xuxu, you better come up with some good designs.”
It was literally a command.
Hearing this, it displeased Su Yan. When he was about to open his mouth to speak, Wen Xuxu stopped him by casting a meaningful look towards him.
Xuxu raised her feet and strode into the office with a faint smile on her face. “Miss Xin is our client. So I’ll definitely exert more effort and do my best. You can rest assured.”
She knew that it would be no mean feat, for Xin Yanting would definitely seize this opportunity to make things difficult for her.
“You better.” Xin Yanting arrogantly snorted with her head up high.
Seeing her acting in such a manner, Xuxu found it amusing. She had no further intention and found it unnecessary to haggle with her. What was there to quibble with an unreasonable and spoiled woman?
A fleeting smile flashed across Xuxu’s face.
Su Yan caught her and also smiled as he averted his gaze at Xin Yanting. He couldn’t help but laugh with an arrogant sight.
He quipped, “Let me take measurements for Miss Xin.”
He reached out to grab the measuring tape and paper from the desk.
Xin Yanting snorted again and crossed her arms on her chest like a queen waiting for Su Yan to ‘wait on’ her.
Su Yan took the measuring tape and walked over to Xin Yanting. He faced her, and when he saw that she had folded her arms, he commanded, “Put down your arms.”
His attitude displeased Xin Yanting, but at the thought of him willing to accept her as his client, she swallowed her pride and put down her hands, allowing Su Yan to take her measurements.
She swallowed her anger and suffered in silence, all because of—she glared menacingly at Wen Xuxu.
‘Hmph.’ All because she wanted to take the chance to deliberately make things difficult for Wen Xuxu—the bad woman who had let her cousin down.
Her cousin treated her so well.
Xuxu feigned ignorance at Miss Xin’s hatred towards her and raised her feet to walk past her.
By right, Xuxu should be the one taking the measurements. But knowing that Xin Yanting was a crafty and unruly person, Su Yan didn’t want to put Xuxu in a difficult spot and took over this task from her.
After they took the measurements, Su Yan saw Xin Yanting out of the door. He caught sight of Xuxu when he went back in. He lamented, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to escape from her.”
Xuxu shrugged her shoulders. “Bring it on anytime.”
Su Yan laughed. “Yes!”
After seeing Xin Yanting, Xuxu’s inspiration flowed. Holding a pen in her hand, a devilish grin appeared on her angelic face.
