Chapter 77: You’ve Underestimated Your Opponent
Song Wei was stunned for a moment. “What did you say? Liu Shiying became the spokesperson for PARADISES? Didn’t she always say that she doesn’t like Western-style jewelry?”
Luo Lisha snorted and said, “The latest series of PARADISES is the same as the Exquisite series. It’s an innovative traditional design that focuses on gold and jade. I’ve already sent you their concept design drafts. Somehow, I feel like their ideas coincide with our Exquisite series…”
Song Wei frowned and replied, “Let me see what’s going on.”
Then, she hung up on Luo Lisha and found the design plan that her boss had sent over.
With just one look, Song Wei’s gaze turned sharp.
That was because the so-called latest range of new products on the screen from PARADISES was clearly modified according to the design of the Exquisite Earrings that she had altered.
It was just that they had changed Luo Lisha’s distinctive filigree style into a simple and modern design that PARADISES used often.
The rest of the composition was exactly the same as the draft that Song Wei had given Liu Shiying!
She had been too careless. She did not expect Liu Shiying to do this. She had given Liu Shiying the sketch too rashly after her modifications.
Song Wei immediately called Liu Shiying’s assistant, but the person who picked up was Liu Shiying.
On the other end of the phone, Liu Shiying’s tone was calm and did not sound apologetic at all. “I know what you want to ask. It’s as you’ve seen it. I gave them the blueprint.”
“Liu Shiying, I really overestimated your moral standing.” Song Wei sounded like she wanted to kill someone.
“No, you are the one who underestimated your opponent,” Liu Shiying voiced calmly. “They’re more ruthless than you are. Although you said you wanted to threaten me with Xiao Xing, I knew from what you did last night that you wouldn’t.”
“…” Song Wei heard that and revealed a bitter mocking smile from the corner of her lips.
That was true. Why had she displayed such a weakness of being merciful again?
Liu Shiying was from the entertainment industry. What morality would she have to speak of?
“You don’t have to feel too bad either. This is a lesson for you. No matter when, don’t trust others too much, especially those in the entertainment industry.”
“Liu Shiying, aren’t you afraid that I’ll expose this matter?”
“I believe that you don’t have enough evidence. Even if you do, I can deny it. But they have a video.”
Song Wei took a deep breath and said icily, “You better not regret your decision today.”
On the other end, Liu Shiying remarked casually, “You’re just a minor designer. What’s there for me to regret? Stop being arrogant. I don’t look highly upon you at all.”
Song Wei tried her best to calm the fury in her heart. Instead, the corners of her mouth curled up into a competitive smile.
“This is what you said. Remember that.”
Liu Shiying seemed to be stunned by Song Wei’s confident tone for a moment, but she quickly said, “I don’t have time to bicker with you. We probably won’t have the chance to meet again in the future.”
With that, Liu Shiying hung up the call.
A trace of frost flashed through Song Wei’s eyes.
By the side, Little Guo looked at her somewhat worriedly. “Madam Jiang… Is there a problem with the project again? Are we going to stay for a few more days before leaving?”
However, Song Wei simply put away her phone and went back to her room to pack her luggage. “No, we’re leaving early. Let’s go back to S City first. I have to meet someone.”
For PARADISES to suddenly make such a move, it was obvious that it was done by Yan Zhixing.
It seemed like Yan Zhixing had fixed his attention on Sky Palace ever since Exquisite Eye exploded in popularity, and Xie Xingen and Yan Sini had stood up for Song Xiaocao in the name of Song Wei.
Or perhaps more accurately, he had already set his eyes on Song Xiaocao.
As a former business partner, he knew Song Wei’s design, style, and techniques very well.
She wondered how much he knew about this matter…
