My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 110: 110 He Bestowed Special Grace on Me_1

“Hey, I heard that Song Xiaoyun is President Gu’s female assistant. She’s quite scheming. After she joined the company, she edged out two others.”

“It’s a pity that she’s just a glory-seeker doomed to fail. The company must be planning to fire her this time!”

“I’ve always had a problem with her. She’s just arrogant because she’s favored…”

A few female colleagues were scattered among the journalists, quietly commenting on me.

As I walked past them, I just glanced and recognized that these women were friends with Annie in the past.

After Annie left, those women acted very respectfully towards me on the surface and even criticized Annie to my face.

Surprisingly, once I was in a tight spot, they pounced on me like vicious dogs.

What surprised me the most was that Ye Mengyan was also here.

She walked over to meet me immediately upon seeing me.

“Xiaoyun, I know I’ve wronged you a bit in this matter. I’ve thought about it, and in order to repay you, once this matter is over, I will persuade Brother Gu to give you my opportunity to study in France. You’re very talented. You will have a better future after studying in France for four years.”

Ye Mengyan thought her plan was solid. She would push me off to France and then take the opportunity to be with Gu Yuanzhou?

I looked at her with a smile, “Thank you for your kindness, but I don’t think I’m necessarily doomed to failure.”

I walked toward the conference room, facing her slightly triumphant yet somewhat sympathetic gaze.

At the entrance, I unexpectedly bumped into Gu Yuanzhou.

Dressed in a pure black suit, his appearance was extraordinary and he stood out within the crowd. A group of executives were following him.

In front of all these people, he simply looked at me with his hands behind his back.

“I hope you won’t let the company down.”

“I understand!”

As I was about to enter, I heard a cheer behind me.

“Xiaoyun, go for it! I’m rooting for you!”

When I turned around, I was surprised to see that Shen Yishu was there.

He even brought a bunch of flowers, waving them enthusiastically,

“Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun, you’re sure to win!”

Despite his somewhat silly appearance, his support as the only ally boosted my confidence tremendously.

I gave him an OK gesture, then resolutely stepped in.

The journalists in the conference room were already prepared, their cameras pointed at me like guns.

I stood on the podium, picked up the microphone, keeping my expression steady.

“Thank you everyone…Today, I want to address the hot online debate accusing me of plagiarism. I wish to clarify that I did not plagiarize the wedding dress design I made for the competition, which is claimed to be similar to a luxury brand CGG’s design. ”

Perhaps everyone was expecting me to break into tears, apologise, and state that the matter was unrelated to the company.

But in reality, I only made clarifications, which was seen as unrepentant and did not match everyone’s original expectations.

Everyone was stunned. Then, a journalist reacted, pointing at me and loudly saying,

“You’ve plagiarized. Why still deny it? We aren’t blind. Your design is extremely similar to the original, be it the design style or the details…”

I smiled and nodded,

“Mr. Journalist, you’re correct! My new design is extremely similar to the original because the two wedding dresses are actually sister-designs! Oh, by the way, I have an authorization letter from CGG. They authorized me to redesign a piece similar to the original to participate in the competition.”

Indeed, there was an authorization letter with CGG’s official seal in the bundle of roses delivered to me.

As long as I had the original company’s authorization, it wasn’t plagiarism, but legitimate creative design.

It wasn’t a problem at all. It was legal and compliant.

The room fell silent the moment I revealed the authorization letter.

Through the crowd, I saw disappointment written all over Ye Mengyan’s face.

Several journalists were not convinced and phoned CGG headquarters on the spot to verify. The responses they received corroborated my assertion.

Everyone stopped doubting me.

However, another journalist stepped forward and posed a very tricky question to me.

“Miss Song, you’ve received an authorization letter from a huge fashion company like CGG. What’s your relationship with them?”

I casually replied,

“Oh, I am actually their external freelance designer. I occasionally collaborate with them. Please look forward to our work together.”

With this statement, the room exploded!

If I was able to collaborate with such a luxury brand, it would affirm that my design quality has reached the peak within the country.

Even if I were the chief designer of Zhenyi Company, it would be fitting.

Hence, the journalists started digging deeper.

“Miss Song, which high-ranking design college did you graduate from? Did you study abroad in France or in the UK before?”

“Miss Song, have you considered moving to a larger fashion company? Considering the current strength of Zhenyi Company, you are severely hampered.”

“Miss Song…”

The journalists had seemingly uncovered some sensational news and huddled around wanting to get every detail.

I just shrugged my shoulders and told them, “No comment!”

Then I hurriedly left the stage.

The stuff about being an external freelance designer was simply off the cuff. I had no news for them.

I left the conference room, leaving a group of boring journalists behind.

A few minutes later, after taking a break and having a drink of water, I walked into the president’s office.

As soon as I entered, I saw a tall man standing with his hands behind his back.

“President Gu!”

I softly called, and then Gu Yuanzhou turned to look at me.

He studied me for a while before asking,

“When did you start collaborating with CGG?”

Apparently, he believed what I said earlier. It seemed that the authorization letter had done wonders.

“President Gu, I’ve resolved the company’s crisis!”

Gu Yuanzhou acknowledged with a nod, “Your abilities are indeed outstanding. Very good! In that case, from next month onwards, the company will double your salary!”

His words didn’t elicit any response from me. My mind remained calm.

“Well, aren’t you satisfied? Is there something else you want to ask for?”

It was clear that Gu Yuanzhou had realized my value.

True, after today’s news broadcast, everyone would know that the chief designer at Zhenyi Company was a designer who collaborated with CGG. This would greatly improve the company’s overall quality.

However, I wasn’t moved by the material rewards Gu Yuanzhou offered. I directly handed him a document.

Gu Yuanzhou calmly opened the document. Upon glancing at it, his face changed dramatically. “You want to resign?”
