Chapter 282: We’re Busy and Like Each Other

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

No woman would lose when it came to digging up old scores, let alone Lin Qingqian.

Her red lips curled into a smile as she said unhurriedly, “Since you want to talk about this, should I ask about the matter of Li Ruzhu living in the Jiang residence for seven years?”

Jiang Yanshen: ‘

A trace of frustration flashed across his deep eyes, as if he regretted mentioning this topic. His thin lips curled up slightly. “Let’s eat.”

He skipped the topic without changing his expression.

Lin Qingqian picked up her chopsticks and started eating her dinner happily.

Outside the window, the Milky Way flickered. The moon hung on the treetops, and a cool breeze blew into the room.

Jiang Yanshen was wearing a pair of dark-colored pajama pants. He opened the window and dispersed the sweet smell in the room. When he turned around, he saw Lin Qingqian, who had already taken a shower, walking out.

Her usually clean face seemed to be covered in blush at this moment. It was as red as a ripe apple, making her look very cute.

He walked over and took her hand, then lowered his head and kissed the tip of her forehead.

Lin Qingqian turned her head to look at him. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m going on a business trip for a week. Help me pack, okay?” His low voice sounded in her ear with a hint of coaxing.

Lin Qingqian’s face heated up slightly. No wonder he tormented her so much tonight. So he was going on a business trip.

“Alright.” She turned around and walked to the closet. She took out his suitcase and packed two formal suits and three shirts, each with a matching tie.

“Do you want to bring the perfume?” she asked.

Jiang Yanshen sat by the bed and watched her pack his luggage. His throat bobbed as he nodded.

Lin Qingqian pulled open the bedside table and took out the perfume to put in his luggage. “Is there anything else you want to bring?”

‘Yes.”

Lin Qingqian looked up at him. “What?”

The warmth in his black eyes was scorching. His thin lips parted slightly. “You.”

Lin Qingqian’s heart trembled, as if someone had pinched it. Before she could speak, she was hugged by Jiang Yanshen.

“Can you come with me?” Jiang Yanshen said in a low and hoarse voice, “Didn’t you always want to go on a business trip with me in the past?”

“That was in the past.” Lin Qingqian stretched out her hand and pushed his chest, her bright eyes shining. “I have to take care of the company now and draw design drafts. How can I have the time?”

Jiang Yanshen frowned slightly. “You’re even busier than me now.”

He had already tried his best to reduce the chances of him going on a business trip in the past year and stayed in Lan City most of the time. On the other hand, she was so busy that she often lost contact with him.

Lin Qingqian cupped his cheek and kissed him on the lips. “Isn’t this good?”

Without waiting for Jiang Yanshen to speak, she said, “I like it like this. We’re busy with our individual lives and at the same time, like each other.”

Jiang Yanshen was pleased by her last sentence, “We like each other.” He grabbed the back of her hand and deepened the kiss.

All the unspeakable emotions were placed in this kiss.

“You’re not allowed to eat alone with that Han guy. You’re not allowed to be on the trending searches with other men. You’re not allowed to not answer my calls. You have to video call me every night.”

Although his arrogant and self-centered habits had changed a lot, it was still something embedded deep in his bones. The lingering and tenacious male chauvinism made him want to remind her that she couldn’t touch these bottom lines.

Lin Qingqian knew that he was already trying his best to restrain those bad habits, so she didn’t resist these not too excessive requests and readily agreed.

Jiang Yanshen kissed her forehead tenderly. “Wait for me to come back.”

The next day, Lin Qingqian sent Jiang Yanshen to the plane first and reluctantly bade farewell before returning to the company.

They had just finished a meeting and a group of people walked out of the meeting room. Su Ying walked over, her face filled with anxiety and uneasiness, but she did not speak immediately. Instead, she called out, “Sister Qingqian.”

Lin Qingqian realized something had happened and said gently, “Let’s go back to the office to talk.”

Su Ying followed her back to the office and waited for Lin Qingqian to sit down before handing the invitation letter to her. “This is the package I just received.”

Lin Qingqian slowly opened the well-crafted invitation letter and read, “Timeless Brand Launch Event?”

“I’ve never heard of this brand!” Lin Qingqian looked up at her in confusion.

Su Ying handed the package to her. “This is their designer’s information and some designs released by the brand.”

Lin Qingqian’s eyes couldn’t help but turn cold when she saw the words “Yu Lian”. When she saw the design plan, her expression had completely darkened.

This Yu Lian was the person who slandered her for plagiarism back then. He had yet to apologize to her and now, he had actually established a personal brand.

Su Ying: “Our ‘Light Feather’ series is about to be released. Could it be a coincidence that their designs are so similar to ours?”

Lin Qingqian’s fingers that were holding the publicity book turned slightly pale, but there was no anger on her face. She curled her lips and said, “Do you believe that this is a coincidence?”

Su Ying shook her head, but her eyes were filled with confusion. “But how did they know that our next series is ‘Light Feather’? Is there a problem with our company’s people?”

“We can’t confirm if there’s a problem with the staff for the time being.” Lin Qingqian said very calmly, “Don’t publicize this matter first.”

She had personally chosen everyone in the company. Without evidence, she didn’t want to easily suspect anyone.

Su Ying nodded. “But when they see these things, they should know. Do we need to postpone the release of our new products?”

“No need.” Lin Qingqian replied without any hesitation. “Everything will be announced as usual. Also, contact Lawyer Liang. I need to meet him.” “Alright, I’ll call his assistant to arrange a time.”

“Wait.” Lin Qingqian stopped her. “Investigate who the investor behind this brand is.”

Even a genius designer had to have an investor if they wanted to establish their own brand unless their family had a mine.

She was very curious about who the investor of ‘Timeless” was!

Su Ying was very efficient and quickly gave her the expected answer—Dashun Corp.

The general manager of Dashun Corp was Li Dashun, who was also Li Ruzhu’s father.

The corners of Lin Oingaian’s mouth curled into a cold smile. Calculating the

time, Li Ruzhu should have come out by now. She originally thought that she could have a few days of peace, but she didn’t expect this woman to come out so quickly to cause trouble.

“I’ve arranged with Lawyer Liang’s assistant to meet you tomorrow morning.”

Lin Qingqian nodded. “Go out and busy yourself first.”

After Su Ying left the office, Lin Qingqian took out her phone and made a call.

“Miss Li, I’m Lin Qingqian. There’s something I think you need to know.”

The news conference of the Timeless brand was held in the banquet hall of a five-star hotel in Lan City. Other than reporters and celebrities, many young ladies and socialites from Lan City were invited to the event location.

Since Lin Qingqian had received the invitation, she naturally had to participate in the news conference.

Not only did she come, but she also brought Li Wenwen.

Li Wenwen was wearing a long white dress with light makeup. She looked exquisite and beautiful, while Lin Qingqian was wearing a black dress. The slit of the skirt swayed with her footsteps, revealing the golden anklet on her ankle.

Compared to Li Wenwen, she had let Suisui put on very exquisite makeup on her tonight. She had fiery red lips and long dark green hair that fell down to hide her fair back. It was sexy but traditional.

Standing with Li Wenwen, she did not look inferior at all. When they entered the venue, they were crazily photographed by the media. The two of them, one in black and the other in white, complemented each other.

The photo was posted online without any editing. Many passers-by saw it and asked who she was, when she debuted, and why they didn’t know.

Everyone wanted to follow good -looking young ladies.

A fan of Lin Qingqian came out to reveal her identity. This is my daughter, not a celebrity. She’s a stylist, a designer, and a female boss. Her ability was almost on par with the food circle.

Li Wenwen was not on the list of celebrities that the media had obtained in advance. They were very curious why she was here.

Li Wenwen’s simple answer was that she was invited by Designer Lin. She didn’t answer any more questions.

The media reporters threw the topic to Lin Qingqian again.

Lin Qingqian smiled slightly. “You’ll know in a while.”

Seeing that she was deliberately leaving them hanging, the media did not ask further. The topic shifted to the matter of Yu Lian accusing her of plagiarism previously. Was attending the news conference tonight to bury the hatchet with Yu Lian?

Lin Qingqian still did not answer. Her red lips curled up slightly. “The news conference hasn’t started yet. You’ll know later.”

The media reporters: ‘

Was there a need to be so tight-lipped?

Forget it, she was very good-looking. They had to quickly take a few more photos to earn more views on the Internet.

In the distance, Li Ruzhu was wearing a pink gown and a diamond necklace tonight. She silently looked at Lin Qingqian, who was surrounded by the media, as if she was surrounded by everyone. Her carefully made crystal nails were about to dig into her flesh.

When she met Lin Qingqian, she was still a farmer who came from the countryside in tattered canvas shoes. She was completely inconspicuous. Who would have thought that she would become more and more good at dressing up later?

Now, it was even more like an ugly duckling was transformed into a white swan, attracting everyone’s attention. She was jealous, envious, and hateful, and was about to go crazy.

Especially since she had won Jiang Yanshen’s heart!!

This was something she couldn’t tolerate the most!

Lin Qingqian seemed to sense a hint of resentment in the crowd. She looked up and swept her gaze around. Her gaze landed on Li Ruzhu, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up…

A man in a trouser skirt walked over beside Li Ruzhu. His hair was tied up like a punk’s as he handed her a glass of wine. “Miss Li, don’t be angry. She came here tonight to humiliate herself.”

This man was none other than the new designer—Yu Lian.

Li Ruzhu took the champagne and snorted. “Of course I won’t be angry. She’s caught between a rock and a hard place now.”

Yu Lian used her design draft and announced it in advance. If Lin Qingqian released the new product as scheduled, it would be plagiarism. However, if she did not release the new product at the last minute, would she be able to design something new in time?

No matter what, they had won this round and even earned money. Yu Lian clinked glasses with her. “I have to thank Miss Li for your appreciation.”

Li Ruzhu raised her chin proudly and looked at Lin Qingqian provocatively. Lin Qingqian was no longer looking at her. Instead, she turned her head and whispered to Li Wenwen.

The news conference officially began. Other than the lights on the red carpet in the middle of the banquet living room, the other lights were announced to have been extinguished.

The models who had been preparing for a long time walked onto the runway one by one. They were wearing clothes similar to Lin Qingqian’s “Love’s Haven” series.

The media reporters took photos and posted them on Weibo…

The rich ladies and the others revealed surprised expressions. They originally felt that the design drafts on the publicity book were not bad. Indeed they were not disappointed when they saw the real thing with their own eyes at the event location.

In the mixed light, Li Ruzhu looked smugly at Lin Qingqian in the crowd..
