Chapter 336: Torture

"Do you still have the original manuscript of the internal design competition from more than a month ago?" Luo Xichen walked towards her step by step without any expression on his face.

He Simu did not expect him to suddenly mention this. She was stunned for a few seconds, then turned around and walked calmly towards the information cabinet. "Let me look for it."

She went to the cabinet and opened the window. She paused and asked as if nothing had happened, "Is the electronic file missing?"

"No," Luo Xichen replied. He walked to the cabinet and looked at her face.

He looked at her from the corner of his eyes. He Simu's expression froze. She opened the cabinet and slid her fingers across the rows of documents. She took a few seconds to find the folder and handed it to him.

Luo Xichen took the folder and looked at her deliberately. He opened the paper folder.

All the entries from the previous competition were in there. The highest score was at the end. The original design was clearer than the electronic file. There was a signature on each copy. The lowest score was signed by Sha Zhixing It was written in pencil. The handwriting was very delicate. It was Sha Zhixing's handwriting.

He took out the one with the highest score and held it up in his hand. He turned his eyes to the other members of the design department and moved his thin lips expressionlessly. "It's the first time in so many years that a newcomer has won over a senior designer in Rong Xi's design department. Such a talented designer doesn't have the style to do things for Rong Xi without being heavily rewarded."

His voice was neither flat nor narrow. There was not a hint of emotion in it.

He suddenly stopped mid-sentence and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Designer, please come to my office." Luo Xichen turned and walked towards his office.

The one with the highest score was a girl named Alin. She was a newcomer like Sha Zhixing. She was admitted to Rong Xi because of her sister Susan. Alin's heart skipped a beat when she heard Luo Xichen's words.

His tone did not sound like he was rewarding her...

He Simu watched the whole scene quietly. There was no expression on her face. She only looked at Alin when she passed by her.

Alin turned her head slightly and looked at her. They looked at each other briefly and walked into Luo Xichen's office.

As soon as they entered the room, Luo Xichen threw a thick stack of paper at her and said in a cold voice, "The design that we participated in was too outstanding and could be used as a teaching case. Now, draw. Everyone in the design department will get a copy!"

Alin's face turned pale after hearing what he said.

Did he know something?

"What's wrong? Rong Xi's work has never received such a high honor before. Shouldn't you be happy?" Luo Xichen looked at her indifferently, his face still expressionless.

Playing tricks with him? He had been playing tricks ever since he was a child! She was not afraid that she would die!

Alin stood stiffly on the spot, holding a pen in her hand, but she did not write.

"Draw!" Luo Xichen said coldly, his voice as cold as the wind.

Cold sweat dripped from Alin's forehead, and she held the pen stiffly and started to draw slowly.

She had seen Sha Zhixing's design before and had memorized it. It was not difficult to draw it, but if it was not written by the same person, there would still be some differences...
