291: Senior Mi, Aren’t You Being Overly Jealous?

Senior Mi, Aren’t You Being Overly Jealous?

When Shi Beiyu heard that, his brows furrowed deeper. "Is there really no other way?"2

Master Hu sighed and said, "I can't communicate with Mu Siyun since her soul is incomplete. You'll have to wait a while longer."

Shi Beiyu remained silent for a long time before he finally asked, "How long do you think we have to wait until we can send her away?"

Master Hu pondered for a moment and then looked at Shi Beiyu. He said, "On the first day of October, the Gates of Hell will open. If she can sort out her grievances before then, she will definitely be able to move along on that day!"

Shi Beiyu mentally calculated the number of days until that said day, and his frown deepened even more.

That would be another two months' time...

Master Hu could not help but laugh as he watched the progression of Shi Beiyu's frown. "As long as you can be open-minded, you can do whatever you want whether or not Mu Siyun exists."

Shi Beiyu returned to his senses and smiled awkwardly. "Thank you for your explanation, senior."

Master Hu waved his hand. "There's no need to thank me. Hurry up and play a few more rounds with me."

Shi Ran, who was observing them from the side, was squatting at the staircase with a bitter expression. Was it appropriate of them to leave him aside and wait while they enjoyed their game of chess?

… 

When Mu Siyin arrived at the company, she found people around her sneaking looks at her wherever she went.

She stopped her pace and frowned before she continued walking towards the office.

As soon as she arrived at the front desk, Little Rui looked at her and smiled. "Siyin, you are amazing!"

Mu Siyin raised an eyebrow. "Huh?"

"Don't you know? The entire company now knows that you're a genius whose design managed to please Mrs. Laura and close the large order worth 500 million dollars. The other departments are so envious of us."

Upon hearing that, Mu Siyin could not help but laugh. "It was just a fluke."

Little Rui smiled. "Don't be so humble! Our company rarely takes orders of this size."

"Tsk. I can't believe underhanded behavior like this is worth showing off!"

Mi Qian's disdainful voice suddenly came from behind.

When Mu Siyin heard that, she immediately turned to look at Mi Qian. "Senior Mi, aren't you being overly jealous?"

When Mi Qian heard Mu Siyin calling her senior, her anger subsided.

"Mu Siyin, you dare say you designed the product yourself?"

"Why not? I'm the one who designed it!"

Mi Qian sneered. "You can stay smug, but I don't think Mrs. Laura will use such a phony design! Hmph!"

Seeing Mi Qian stomping away with an angry face, Little Rui could not help but add, "Siyin, she just can't stand that you're better than her. Just ignore her!"

Mu Siyin smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I'm heading in now."

"See you."

Not long after the working hours had started, Director Wang walked out with a report in her hands. She deliberately raised her voice as she looked in Mi Qian's direction and said, "Chief Mi, your design has been dismissed. Also, Mrs. Laura has decided to go with Mu Siyin's design."

As soon as the announcement was made, the office went into an uproar.

Although they already knew that Mrs. Laura had taken a fancy to Mu Siyin's design, Mi Qian was still the chief designer of their jewelry department. They did not expect that she would be dismissed so easily.

Everyone thought the situation would turn around today.

It seemed like their expectations of Mi Qian were too high. 

When Mi Qian heard that, she flew off the handle. 

"Let me have a look at Mrs. Laura's response!"

She got up and walked towards Director Wang.

Director Wang handed Mi Qian the fax in her hand and said in triumph, "Mrs. Laura said she'll be coming over next week to officially sign an exclusive contract with us. She wants to have a talk with Mu Siyin in detail for future cooperation."
