Mo Shiyi was supposed to arrive at the studio at nine o'clock to start work. But because Shen Muhan didn't want her to be overly tired because of work, but couldn't beat her stubbornness of wanting to go to work, the two of them finally gave in and agreed on working hours, shortening from the original nine to six in the evening to ten in the morning to five in the afternoon.
So, when she arrived downstairs of the office building an hour late, Alia had been waiting for a long time and was almost angry.
"What do you... want to see me for? My studio is upstairs, do you want to go up and sit?" If Alia didn't know which floor the Tisfuni studio was on, she wouldn't have waited like this and would have gone upstairs long ago. So, she nodded without hesitation, but her tone still revealed a natural sense of superiority, "Okay,
then I take a look at your workplace by the way."
The scene of Mo Shiyi and Alia entering the studio together stunned the other friends.
After all, a second ago, they were still discussing the trend of rumors about the shady business on the Internet, saying bad things about Alia, and regarded her as the boss's strongest competitor.
As a result... how could these two people appear here together as if nothing had happened, just like friends?
"Yan Yan, go and pour Miss Alia a cup of hot coffee."
Mo Shiyi's words were undoubtedly like a switch, making those friends who had been standing there without moving come back to their senses one after another. Some lowered their heads and hurriedly continued to do the things at hand, while others boldly came over to greet, which was actually a test.
For example, Liang Yiming first said bluntly: "Boss, why did you come to work so late today? It turns out that you were tripped by this woman. Don't you know that she is-"
"Sister Shiyi, coffee, coffee is here, this is for you, hot milk." Qi Yan was still able to read the face, stepped forward and interrupted Liang Yiming's words, and stuffed the milk into Mo Shiyi's hand. Ailia also took the coffee from Qi Yan, but did not rush to drink it. Instead, she put it on the coffee table beside her and suddenly bowed to Mo Shiyi, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Shen, those photos were indeed taken by me, but I don't know why they were uploaded to the Internet. I'm really sorry for causing you a lot of trouble."
That's right, she waited for Mo Shiyi for so long just to apologize.
It was her brother who gave her the idea. After analyzing the pros and cons, she chose a strategy of retreating to advance. I hope it really works. "Oh, you don't know why it was posted online?" Without waiting for Mo Shiyi to speak, Liang Yiming snorted coldly and spoke up for his boss, "So what you mean is, did someone touch your phone? But who dares to touch the phone of a great designer like you? And you spread rumors that there is a shady deal in the competition. It's clearly jealousy, a woman's jealousy, which will ruin herself one day!"
Mo Shiyi was quite surprised by her apology, "Ms. Alia, you, you came to me just for this matter?"
"What do you mean just for this matter, Sister Shiyi, she slandered you like that, and caused our orders to plummet these days. Now you want to be done with just an apology? It's impossible!" Qi Yan couldn't help it and retorted again. A glimmer of contempt flashed across Alia's eyes, but she remained calm on the surface, pretending to be sincere and looking at Mo Shiyi, "Although I took the photos, please believe that those rumors were not made by me. Of course, I am also willing to take part of the responsibility. Just ask, I can compensate your Tisfuni for the loss."
"I'm curious, why did you take those photos?"
If the person who spread the rumors was not Alia, Mo Shiyi would not need her apology, nor would she blame the other party for anything. And if it was indeed Alia, then she naturally could not easily choose to forgive and accept the other party's apology just because of an apology.
So Mo Shiyi wanted to find out the ins and outs of this matter. Alia secretly thanked that her brother had thought of this question a long time ago, and then she brought out a prepared answer, "Haha, I was also eating in the restaurant that night, and when I looked up, I saw the three of you sitting together so harmoniously to eat, and I couldn't help but doubt. I originally wanted to take these photos and ask you or Teacher Liao to clarify, but I didn't expect that the photos would be leaked."
