Someone couldn't help but say, "She is our company's jewelry designer? She looks a little too young. She didn't get in through connections, did she?"
Indeed, the twenty-four-year-old Su Mo was too young in front of these people.
Regardless of whether it was out of envy or jealousy, the way they looked at Su Mo had already changed. Some people already had other ideas.
Su Mo was embarrassed when she heard that. She quickly waved her hand, wanting to explain something, "No..."
After saying no, she remembered that what they said was the truth. She indeed came in through connections, and even if she said so, no one would listen.
Those people ignored Su Mo and dragged Lin Xueyi to inquire about other things.
Someone asked her, "Xueyi, you have been following the president. The president is suddenly interested in the jewelry industry. You must know the reason, right? Do you have any insider information to share with everyone?"
"I don't dare to say these things."
Lin Xueyi seemed to enjoy the feeling of grabbing everyone's attention. The corners of her mouth curved. She was obviously very happy, but she still pretended to be in a difficult position and hesitated to say more.
The person next to her touched her shoulder. "Honey, don't be stingy! Tell us!"
Lin Xueyi was still reserved. She smiled and said, "This is not being stingy. This is a matter of principle."
Although everyone was unhappy, they did not continue to ask. After all, because of her exalted status, who dared to offend the president's secretary?
However, it was clear that she was not the only one who knew about this matter, so everyone started to keep asking Su Mo.
"Isn't Miss Su from the design department?"
"That's right! Miss Su, you should know some inside story, right?"
"What is the name of our company's jewelry brand?"
"When is the company planning to hold a press conference?"
Su Mo was shocked by the series of questions. Looking at the anxious beauties, she smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm not sure about this, either."
She was not Lin Xueyi. Everyone had no qualms about her. When they heard that she was unwilling to say it, their faces all turned ugly. "Please, you don't have to be so tight-lipped!"
"No, I really don't know!" Su Mo was a little embarrassed and did not know what to do!
At this time, a colleague who had just joined the topic said, "You guys are talking about this! I might know something about this."
As soon as she said this, she immediately replaced the spots of Lin Xueyi and Su Mo. She was surrounded by everyone and being asked, "Hurry up and tell us. What do you know?"
The woman did not hesitate and told them everything she knew.
"I have a fellow townsman who just works in the operation department. A few days ago, I heard him say that the promotion plan of the new brand has come out, and they have been informed that the schedule will be officially on the agenda after New Year's Day."
For the company to suddenly enter the jewelry industry, they only heard the news and did not see any action. Her words were undoubtedly like a heavy bomb, which immediately set off a hot tide around them.
No woman was not keen to jewelry, so someone could not help but start to look forward to it, "Our company will have its own jewelry brand. Does that mean that the internal employees can enjoy a discount in the future?"
"Maybe after our Ling'an Group entered the industry of entertainment media and real estate, we can be the top one in the industry of jewelry brands across the country."
Ling'an Group had been involved in many industries in recent years. The best businesses were in the entertainment media and real estate. Moreover, the company had been living in a stable position for the past two years.
Now that the company had suddenly decided to enter the jewelry industry, it seemed that the company intended to hit a record high.
Once this news was confirmed, everyone started to get excited.
Someone remembered Lin Xueyi and pulled her arm, asking, "Xueyi, is this true? Are we going to take action after New Year's Day?"
Lin Xueyi had never heard of this news before. Now that she was asked, her expression could not help but change. However, she quickly concealed her emotions and smiled professionally.
"The secretariat has a rule that there are some things that are not allowed to reveal. Everyone should wait patiently for the company's announcement!"
She deliberately made it sound ambiguous, then she held Su Mo's arm and said, "I'm sorry, but I have to introduce Miss Su to other colleagues. Let's talk when we have time!"
"Goodbye, everyone!" Su Mo also felt that it was awkward to stay here. She smiled at everyone and followed Lin Xueyi.
Because of what happened just now, Lin Xueyi was very unhappy and her pace was getting faster and faster.
Su Mo struggled to keep up, and her face gradually became pale and tired. She struggled a little, "Miss Lin, you are walking too fast."
Only then did Lin Xueyi remember her. When she turned around, she found that Su Mo's complexion was very bad. When she looked at the walking stick in Su Mo's hand again, a trace of guilt flashed through her eyes. She quickly released her.
"Sorry, I forgot that your legs are not convenient. Are you okay?" Lin Xueyi looked at her with concern. She seemed to be worried that Su Mo would be angry and her expression was a little uneasy.
Su Mo glanced at her and shook her head. "I'm fine. I just feel a little stuffy when staying inside."
She was now completely concerned about Xiao Nanye, so she said to Lin Xueyi, "I don't feel too comfortable. I'm going to go out for a walk first. Goodbye, Miss Lin!"
"Hey, don't go yet!"
Lin Xueyi thought that Su Mo was angry and quickly chased after her. She bit her lips and looked at Su Mo uneasily. "Are you angry?"
"I wasn't!" Su Mo looked at her calmly.
Lin Xueyi smiled and took her hand, saying, "Then don't be in such a hurry to leave. You haven't eaten anything since you came here!"
Su Mo looked at Lin Xueyi strangely. She did not feel that she was very familiar with Lin Xueyi.
Her eyes were too straightforward. Lin Xueyi felt a little awkward when Su Mo looked at her like that. She let go and Su Mo turned to leave.
"In this year's annual meeting, other than colleagues from the head office, there are also people from other branches. The higher-ups of those branches are now with the president."
Hearing Lin Xueyi mention Xiao Nanye, Su Mo stopped to look at her. In her heart, Su Mo was thinking, "He said that he would come to me, but he did not say that he was now with the company's executives."
Seeing that Su Mo seemed to be interested, Lin Xueyi quickly continued, "Not only that, there are also the big star Ye Yan and Lan Fengchen. If we are lucky, we might be able to see them later."
In fact, Su Mo was not interested in these people at all, especially Ye Yan. She actually did not like to see her at all, because every time she saw her, it seemed that something unpleasant would happen to her.
Moreover, the heater here was so sufficient that everyone was wearing formal attires. Only she was wearing a down jacket. She could feel that her clothes inside were wet and stuck to her body. It was very uncomfortable.
This place made her feel stuffy and her legs hurt. If she didn't leave, she really wouldn't be able to hold on. So, this time, she didn't intend to accept Lin Xueyi's good intentions.
"Sorry, I have an appointment with someone. I really have to go."
This time, Lin Xueyi finally stopped pestering her. Su Mo heaved a sigh of relief. She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly heard someone scream. It seemed that she had seen someone.
She also saw the open door of the venue. There were too many people in the middle, so she couldn't see who came in.
More and more screams were heard, and then countless high heels ran in the direction of the door. The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Su Mo thought to herself, "Is Xiao Nanye here?"
Su Mo was still standing in the same place, lost in thought. She was accidentally hit on the shoulder. She was shocked and quickly reached out to support the table next to her.
Just as she stabilized her body, she was pushed from behind again. She couldn't grab tight the walking stick and it fell to the ground. This time, she was completely out of support. She screamed and fell to the ground.
This fall was very heavy. Su Mo was indecently lying on the ground. She wanted to get up, but her body was unable to exert any strength.
Watching the walking stick fall to the side alone and then be kicked further and further away by pairs of high heels, Su Mo felt rather helpless. She felt more and more that she should check the almanac before going out today.
The others all flocked to the door. Su Mo was glad that no one saw her embarrassing manner. She slowly sat up, thinking to herself, "Today is really embarrassing."
She was still muttering in her heart, but she did not notice that the surrounding voices had already quieted down.
Until a white and slender hand appeared in front of her eyes.
This was not Xiao Nanye's hand. Su Mo raised her head in confusion and saw a handsome man standing in front of her. He bent over and handed her a hand. His face had an impeccable warm smile.
"Why are you here?"
Su Mo looked at Lan Fengchen in surprise and suddenly remembered that she seemed to have heard someone mention this name.
He was the superstar, Lan Fengchen!
It was only later that she found out that Lan Fengchen was a star. No wonder when they first met, she always felt that everyone in the restaurant was peeping at him.
Looking at Su Mo's expression, Lan Fengchen felt it was clear that she still remembered him as her blind date.
The corners of Lan Fengchen's lips curled into a smile. That smile was extremely beautiful. It lit up the entire venue in an instant. He looked at Su Mo with an evil look in his eyes. "So, Miss Su still remembers me."
Su Mo looked at him suspiciously, thinking to herself, "Why do I feel that this smile is somewhat malicious?"
Lan Fengchen looked at her patiently. His slender and white fingers moved forward. "Let me help you up."
Su Mo nodded. She held his hand and stood up. Because she had sprained her ankle when she fell down, she couldn't stand properly when she got up, so she fell on Lan Fengchen all of a sudden.
"Be careful."
Lan Fengchen supported her. In other people's eyes, this action seemed to be deliberately throwing herself into his arms.
Looking at the onlookers pointing to her and listening to their whispers, Su Mo was so embarrassed that she regretted again that she did not check the almanac when she went out today.
"I'm fine now. Thank you!"
Su Mo tried hard to stand firm, but one of her legs was shaking. No matter how hard she stood, she could not stand steadily. She began to look for her lost walking stick.
Only then did Lan Fengchen notice that she could only stand with the strength of one leg. His eyes moved, and he quickly noticed the walking stick on the ground. "Are your legs uncomfortable?" He asked.
Su Mo nodded and tucked her hair behind her ears, "My leg accidentally got fractured a while ago."
"You really are..." Seeing her like this, Lan Fengchen was rather speechless.
