Ji Yan was ready to go back to work after resting in the Shang family for two days.
After all, she was not the favored Madam Ji Yan of the Shang family. During these few days when the Shang family treated her coldly, she had made up her mind that she needed to have a career of her own.
She and Shang Jinshen had been sleeping in separate rooms. However, she felt a little embarrassed every time they were alone. This was because of the incident that happened that afternoon.
All the colleagues looked at her strangely when she arrived at the company.
As soon as she sat down, she heard the vigorous and resolute director calling her name.
“Ji Yan, call on Mali and Li Ying, as well as the other team members who participate in this competition, to come to the conference room,” The minister paused, tilted his head to look at her, and raised his eyebrows, “By the way, bring along your design drafts.”
Ji Yan was lost in her thoughts. She opened the drawer and took out her USB flash drive.
In the conference room, the minister stood on the stage. She glanced at the crowd below. All the members of the group were present, while Mali and Li Ying were sitting opposite of Ji Yan.
Li Ying and Ji Yan joined the company almost at the same time. Both of them had always been competitive. But at this time, Li Ying acted as if nothing happened. She lowered her head to fiddle with her nails and looked up at Ji Yan from time to time.
Ji Yan frowned and ignored her contemptuous eyes.
Anyway, Li Ying’s talent in design had never been as good as hers.
The minister had already said, “One of our company’s staff won an outstanding award for the design work in Pearsonland International display board last time.”
Ji Yan’s heart skipped a beat. She had prepared for a long time for this competition. Could she be the winner?
The minister turned on his computer and a drawing design appeared.
Ji Yan’s body trembled. On that drawing design, a brand new ring suddenly appeared. Its unique features were seemingly simple and generous design, but its design was also slightly different.
The ring was designed with hollow and letter patterns. It was decorated with twelve small diamonds. The front side of the letter was U, and the side had a heart-shaped cutting.
The letter held a perfect blue and white diamond, and there was also a very subtle red diamond hidden in the heart.
No matter how one looked at it from any angle, the design of this diamond ring was close to perfection.
When she designed this, she specially combined the U and heart-shaped together. And the red diamond also expressed a loyal and passionate heart.
That’s right, this was Ji Yan’s design. Ji Yan’s heart sank. She didn’t expect that she would really win.
But what the minister said next made her feel like she got struck with lightning.
The minister smiled and said, “This is Li Ying’s award-winning design. You all should learn from her in the future!”
Li Ying also raised her head and looked at Ji Yan arrogantly as if she was showing off. Her eyes were like a sharp knife, leaving Ji Yan with nowhere to hide.
Ji Yan suddenly got up and did not hide the anger, “Minister, this design is clearly mine!”
She looked at Mali who was sitting at the side and asked, “Mali, the three of us were submitted the design drafts together. You’ve seen my design too. Tell me, whose design this belongs to?”
However, Mali lowered her head and did not dare to look directly into Ji Yan’s eyes because she was guilty.
A subtle discussion echoed from the surroundings.
The minister said coldly, “The design drafts were submitted to me like this. As for why you said it belonged to you, I’m not too sure about that.”
After Ji Yan heard what she said, she suddenly felt depressed. She didn’t expect that the minister who used to be nice to her spoke up for Li Ying!
Li Ying straightened her back with a seductive look, and her emotions were impeccable, “Ji Yan, I think you had too much fun on your vacation. You’ve gotten confused about your own design draft, haven’t you?”
There were chuckles of laughter coming from the conference room.
Ji Yan clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palm. However, she maintained her composure and looked at Li Ying coldly. Her gaze was as cold as the winter in December. At this moment, the deputy manager walked in.
