Both parties signed a confidentiality agreement when the dress was custom-made.
If either party causes the design to leak, they must bear the corresponding legal responsibility.
Gu Yunnan remained expressionless and said, "The design was stolen, and the studio is also a victim. If Miss Xiao insists on suing us, we will cooperate fully with the investigation."
"Is this the attitude your studio has towards solving problems?" Xiao Qingya was furious.
Unexpectedly, the other party was so inflexible, willing to risk the studio’s reputation rather than help her persuade the other party to give her the dress.
"I have already shown the greatest sincerity of our studio. It’s Miss Xiao who doesn’t accept it. We really can’t meet your demands."
"Excuse me, may I leave now?" Sheng Ning’an interrupted the two of them.
"No, you can’t leave."
Two voices sounded almost simultaneously.
"What exactly will it take for you to give me the dress? As long as you agree to give up the dress, I can agree to any request you make," Xiao Qingya persisted.
"I have already made myself very clear; I will not hand over the dress." Sheng Ning’an didn’t understand why she was so fixated on her dress, but she felt she had made herself very clear.
The continued pestering became rather displeasing.
"What’s happening?" Xu Weiran came over at this moment.
He knew Sheng Ning’an was coming to try on the dress today, and although that girl said he didn’t need to accompany her, he wanted to see her in the dress earlier and give her a surprise, so he took leave to come over.
Unexpectedly, he found she seemed to be in some trouble as soon as he arrived.
"Are you her boyfriend?" Xiao Qingya’s gaze fell on Xu Weiran’s face, with a glimmer of hope rising in her eyes again.
"Could you please talk to your girlfriend and ask her to give me her dress? I really need this dress; it’s really important to me. You can name any price."
"Sorry, although I don’t know why you’re interested in my girlfriend’s dress, her refusal means she’s unwilling. I believe this dress might be very important to you, but it’s equally important, if not more so, to my girlfriend."
"We’ve already said everything we needed to; I will not give up the dress. Instead of insisting here, you might as well choose another one." Sheng Ning’an didn’t expect that even after making things so clear, the other party would still be so persistent.
Despite saying so, none of the other dresses compared to the one on the other party. If she wore this dress to the event, she would definitely dazzle everyone there.
Seeing that the two were unyielding, Xiao Qingya furrowed her brows and came up with an even more absurd idea: "How about this, I’ll pay double for your dress, but I don’t want to keep it, just consider it rented. After I wear it, the dress is still yours, and you can continue to wear it for your engagement ceremony. What do you think?" ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Nowadays, many people rent even their wedding dresses. She’s just borrowing it for an event. They wouldn’t have to spend a single cent and would get a dress for free, so it’s not a loss.
After all, a dress wouldn’t be worn for a second time after its first use.
In this way, both problems would be solved, just perfectly.
"Sorry, we do not agree." Xu Weiran immediately refused before Sheng Ning’an could speak.
Not wanting to hear more from the other party, he directly took the hem of Sheng Ning’an’s dress from the assistant and said, "Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to change out of the dress."
