Chapter 234: Boss Zhu

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Boss Zhu

Tang Yue sat at her desk, somewhat lost in thought.

Although these design drafts could make a lot of money, but for the sake of money...

Tang Yue took a deep breath and waited for them to leave before sitting still, watching the corpulent Boss Zhu from afar without rashly approaching.

She didn’t recognize who Boss Zhu was, and more importantly, she would never sell her designs to such a person.

From her adjacent table, Tang Yue could clearly see Boss Zhu’s lustful gaze fixed on Liu Li and their entangled legs under the table.

Tang Yue didn’t want anything to do with such people.

However, she hadn’t heard of any clothing business owners in Wangjiang County before.

"Eh." When Chu Hong saw Tang Yue, he was a bit surprised to find her observing Boss Zhu’s table and seemed to understand something. When Tang Yue was about to leave, Chu Hong approached and said, "Tang Yue."

"Chu Hong?" Upon seeing those charming eyes, Tang Yue instantly remembered that he was the owner of Yipin Inn, and also Mo Siyu’s partner.

"Indeed, the watch he asked me to bring back from abroad was meant for you," Chu Hong’s charming eyes glanced at Tang Yue’s wrist; it was the first time Mo Siyu had asked him to buy something unrelated to their business.

"Uh..." Tang Yue looked at the watch on her wrist, which she had guessed was expensive, and now, listening to Chu Hong, she understood it was not just expensive.

"What are you watching Boss Zhu for?" Chu Hong asked.

Tang Yue looked at Chu Hong guardedly.

Chu Hong blinked his charming eyes and his smile slightly lifted - he had charm that was second to none, yet no woman had treated him like Tang Yue, who not only showed no admiration but also wore a cautious face.

Chu Hong spread his hands and said, "Mo Siyu asked me to take care of you when he was away. I didn’t get a chance before, but now that we’ve met, I have to warn you - Boss Zhu is not a good person, don’t involve yourself in any business dealings with him."

"Is he in the clothing business?" Tang Yue inquired, seeing that Chu Hong seemed to know this Boss Zhu.

"Yes." Chu Hong replied.

"Thanks." Tang Yue stood up and parted ways with Chu Hong.

Chu Hong watched Tang Yue’s departing figure; he had been prepared to reveal all about Boss Zhu’s background, but why had Tang Yue left just like that?

After leaving, Tang Yue went to find Tang Mingli and asked, "Uncle, has there recently been a Boss Zhu looking to collaborate with us?"

If Boss Zhu was in the clothing business, he would definitely come to Mingyue Clothing Factory.

After all, there was only one clothing factory in Wangjiang County.

"Zhu?" Tang Mingli thought for a moment and said, "Indeed there was one, I happened to be there when he was talking to Director Ding. He is from Shenzhen, said he wanted to place an order, but I didn’t agree."

All of Shenzhen’s distribution was handled by Boss Song. If they let Boss Zhu place an order, how could they explain it to Boss Song and the factory later?

"Oh." Tang Yue nodded, "This must be declined, and if this Boss Zhu comes again, he should be refused in the same manner."

Tang Yue returned to school and was stopped by Xu Zhenzhen.

Previously, Boss Zhu had mentioned that he would pay five thousand yuan for a complete set of design drafts detailed down to the dimensions. Therefore, Xu Zhenzhen, quite shamelessly said, "Xiao Yue, the last time I went to your dorm, I found that I accidentally took a drawing."

Xu Zhenzhen brought out the drawing enthusiastically and held it forward, "Look, is this a clothing design drawn by you?"

"Uh-huh." Tang Yue nodded.

Xu Zhenzhen grinned happily and said, "It just so happens that my aunt knows that clothing manufacturer. She said that your design can sell for US$ 1,000."

Xu Zhenzhen gestured with a finger, her exaggerated expression as if saying that US$ 1,000 was a large amount.

Tang Yue’s eyes flickered. Xu Zhenzhen really had a big appetite, from US$ 5,000 in others’ mouths to US$ 1,000 in hers?

Does she really think I’m a fool, unable to discern anything?

Oh, in her previous life, she trusted Xu Zhenzhen too much, and also, she hadn’t seen much of the world. She remembered clearly that Xu Zhenzhen never mentioned US$ 1,000, only US$ 500.

Maybe she thinks the Tang family’s days are getting better, fearing that US$ 500 wouldn’t bait me?

Tang Yue’s lips slightly curled up, she restrained her gaze and casually responded.

Xu Zhenzhen excitedly said, "Xiao Yue, your other drawings, the ones used for making clothes, a whole set."

"No." Tang Yue said, "I just drew them casually."

Xu Zhenzhen immediately became excited, saying, "Xiao Yue, then you should quickly draw now."

Tang Yue looked at Xu Zhenzhen with a smile that was not quite a smile, asking, "What makes you think that if you ask me to draw, I will?"

"Uh..." Xu Zhenzhen faltered awkwardly, then said, "Xiao Yue, these few drawings could make you US$ 1,000. It’s easy money, why not make it if you can?"

"I won’t." Tang Yue refused without a second thought.

How could Xu Zhenzhen let go of a duck that was already in hand? She kept nagging at Tang Yue pleadingly and softly, then said, "Boss Zhu said if you could modify it a bit more, you could earn a few hundred more."

Ha.

Listening to those words, the sarcasm in Tang Yue’s eyes deepened.

Xu Zhenzhen kept talking in her ear; Tang Yue simply ignored Xu Zhenzhen.

But sometimes, Tang Yue really underestimated the shamelessness of Xu Zhenzhen.

Right, otherwise, how could she have been tricked round and round by Xu Zhenzhen in her previous life?

"Hey, Xu Zhenzhen, can you not cling to my Sister Xiao Yue like a sticky glue, always sticking around her?" Zhang Minmin looked at Xu Zhenzhen with disdain. Knowing the real story, Zhang Minmin felt even more disgusted, feeling nauseous with every glance at Xu Zhenzhen.

"I and Zhenzhen are friends; you’re speaking too harshly." Xu Zhenzhen retorted.

Tang Yue interrupted, "No, we have not been friends for a long time."

"Did you hear that?" Zhang Minmin looked triumphantly at Xu Zhenzhen.

Grinding her teeth, Xu Zhenzhen pitifully said, "Xiao Yue, I know you have misunderstood me, but I have always considered you as a friend. In this lifetime, we are the best of friends, and I will wait for you to understand who truly considers you a friend."

Xu Zhenzhen’s words fell, and her gaze swept over Zhang Minmin and Zhang Tingyu, implying that Tang Yue considering them as friends was a mistake.

"Tsk, you consider Sister Xiao Yue as your best friend, but when trouble arises, you push it all onto her." Zhang Minmin pushed her out the door and slammed it shut with a ’bang.’

"Sister Xiao Yue, why bother with such a person? If you ask me, she deserves a lesson to prevent some from getting too cocky." Zhang Minmin gritted her teeth in hatred towards Xu Zhenzhen.
