Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl
Chapter 179 - 179 179 Cant Hear the Words Jiang Zhe

Chapter 179: Chapter 179 Can’t Hear the Words Jiang Zhe Chapter 179: Chapter 179 Can’t Hear the Words Jiang Zhe Wa Cheng had also seen Jiang Fanyue’s work, which was somewhat familiar to him, and indeed, it reflected great talent.

If it were not for Jiang Fanyue, there would be even more companies choosing to work with Xun Yining’s company.

Jiang Zhe reviewed the last profile. The company’s information was good without any major flaws, and its acceptability to Xun Yining was also fairly decent.

She handed it to Xun Yining, “Take a look.”

Xun Yining didn’t fully understand all this, but he still seriously read it over and said, “Sister, if you think there’s no problem, that’s fine. I didn’t see any issues.”

“What matters is that you think there’s no problem,” Jiang Zhe took back the information and gave it to Wa Cheng, “Set up a meeting with their boss.”

“Sure, no problem!” Wa Cheng agreed immediately.

After Wa Cheng left, Jiang Zhe said, “Even if you’re going to the company, you must remember what I’ve said before.

“I remember, Sister!”

Xun Yining recited in his mind, “Making money is not the most important thing; what’s important is to learn and to acquire the ability to make money, to exploit your strengths—that’s the foundation for establishing oneself.”

Jiang Zhe had said these words before, and he had already committed them thoroughly to memory.

Cheng Lu received a call from Wa Cheng and was very pleased, “Then, when we meet with Xun Yining, please put in a good word for me. I see a lot of prospects and talent in this young man, and I am willing to cooperate with him over the long term.”

“Don’t worry, he’s quite agreeable,” Wa Cheng said, “We will discuss further when we meet.”

He hadn’t mentioned Jiang Zhe yet, as there was no hurry to do so until the meeting.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Lu recalled the competition, and Jiang Fanyue’s results should also be very good. When she was present, she saw the excitement on the judges’ faces.

By now, many companies must be contacting her as well.

Cheng Lu, of course, had no intention of cooperating with Jiang Fanyue, but since they had met and she knew of Fanyue’s good performance, she felt it appropriate to give her a congratulatory call anyway.

At the moment, Jiang Fanyue and Liang Jinlan were basking in the joy of being pursued.

Jiang Fanyue herself had not expected that by merely modifying some unused drafts from J, she would gain widespread acclaim.

The judges’ excited faces, their praising words… and the way they argued among themselves in their mother tongue, she had thought at the time that they were really having a fight, which had scared her quite a bit.

It was only later that she learned their level of appreciation for her design sketches had reached such a height.

Thinking of the numerous discarded drafts by J still stored on her computer, she was brimming with confidence about her future.

“Fanyue’s talent is truly astonishing,” Han Jiayan praised, “How can one be so capable? Whatever she does, she does well.”

“You flatter me too much, Aunt Gu,” Jiang Fanyue said modestly with a smile.

“Actually, learning is just like this—once you understand one thing well, other things will naturally follow,” Han Jiayan said thoughtfully, “I heard that many companies have been seeking you out?”

Jiang Fanyue nodded, “Quite a few, indeed.”

“Yes. Right after the competition ended, so many people were calling me,” Liang Jinlan said cheerfully, “and a lot of them stated they would like to pay a visit.”

Seeing the Jiang Family’s declining business prospects possibly reviving due to Jiang Fanyue, Liang Jinlan felt that hope was on the horizon.

“What is Fanyue’s take on this?” Han Jiayan asked.

Liang Jinlan replied, “Our family is in the clothing business, and now with Fanyue’s outstanding abilities, it’s out of the question for her to work for someone else as a designer. But once the results are out, we can certainly invite them to a celebration party to discuss other types of cooperation.”

The Jiang Family had tried many times but never managed to gain a foothold in Beijing. Unexpectedly, this time they had succeeded without even trying.

Han Jiayan believed their approach was correct; this was indeed a rare opportunity.

The Jiang Family benefited, and it also reflected well on the Gu Family.

The three of them chatted, and Liang Jinlan’s phone rang.

She glanced at the screen and answered the call.

Cheng Lu’s voice came from the other end, “Jinlan, congratulations, I’ve heard that Fanyue performed very well during the competition.”

“It’s okay. She’s naturally talented, and thankfully, I didn’t let her give up on her studies,” Liang Jinlan replied.

“The competition results will be announced soon, why don’t I treat you to a meal?”

“Oh, no need, we’re about to head back, we really don’t have the time.” Liang Jinlan knew Cheng Lu was also looking for a designer and naturally wouldn’t let her meet Jiang Fanyue so easily.

Now, whoever Jiang Fanyue dines with is being favored.

Cheng Lu, hearing this, didn’t insist any further and after some small talk, hung up.

“Someone else wants to collaborate with Fanyue?” Han Jiayan casually asked.

“Yeah, but I’ve already refused them. They’re just unimportant people,” said Liang Jinlan.

The three continued discussing where to host the banquet and which guests to invite.

…

Jiang Zhe got up early in the morning and after a simple wash, stood on the balcony in the sun.

It was already winter, and the sunlight was dwindling.

She was drinking tea when she heard a knock at the door.

“Come in.”

Xun Yining ran in, holding her phone: “Sis, I got through the preliminary competition! Look, I made it to the finals!”

The preliminaries didn’t rank the competitors, but out of 785 participants, only a mere four made it to the finals, which speaks to the difficulty.

“Congratulations,” Jiang Zhe said, having already expected this, so she wasn’t as excited as Xun Yining.

Xun Yining realized she was overly excited and quickly calmed down, “I just wanted to report my results to you.”

“Not bad, keep up the good work.”

Xun Yining nodded emphatically.

“We’ll celebrate with dinner tonight,” Jiang Zhe said, still mixing aloofness with pride.

But Xun Yining knew that her kindness was genuine.

“Mhm mhm, then I’ll go back and tell Xiaoqi and Fang Ting.”

Jiang Zhe messaged Qin Jingchen: “I’ve prepared a celebration dinner for Xun Yining tonight, you guys come too.”

Qin Jingchen replied instantly: “Okay.”

He asked, “Have you chosen the location?”

“It’s set,” Jiang Zhe sent the address over casually.

Qin Jingchen glanced at it; it was a well-reputed restaurant in Beijing, not too difficult to book.

But Jiang Zhe had reserved the best spot on the rooftop.

“Then I’ll come over tonight.”

Just as Qin Jingchen finished replying, he saw Fen Ye stand up, grabbing his jacket and heading out.

“Something up?” he asked.

“Xun Yining asked me to accompany him to buy some gifts; he says they’re for his sister-in-law,” Fen Ye said.

“I’m free too, might as well go and take a look,” Qin Jingchen reached for his jacket as well.

Fen Ye thought: Can’t stand not being involved when it’s about Jiang Zhe, huh?

He didn’t press the matter further, as he had already scheduled a video conference with Qin Qing.

Seeing Qin Jingchen and Fen Ye together, Xun Yining felt a bit nervous: “Brother Fen Ye, Brother Jingchen.”

Fang Ting and Xiaoqi were also busy greeting them.

“What are you planning to buy?” Qin Jingchen asked.

“Maybe a bracelet,” Xun Yining said softly, “I got some prize money after the preliminaries, I want to buy something for Sister Xiaozhe.”
