Chapter 24: She Was Very Straightforward And Not Pretentious At All

"Creating something like this, you are already accomplished."

"But I must advise you, don't just show your designs to anyone. In fact, don't show them at all, no matter how much you trust the person. Some people may take advantage of your trust to copy your designs and register them as their work, then all your effort will be for naught."

"You are the only one who has seen the designs."

"That's good, don't let anyone else see them before they are registered and manufactured."

"Okay, I understand." Feng Tian was not dumb, she understood that Weiwei was only looking out for her and she appreciated that very much.

"I will be opening a jewelry studio soon. If you want, you can come so that we work together. I have the capital and a few designs. You can be a partner."

"WHAT" Feng Tian almost shouted. She looked around the café to make sure that she did not disturb the other customers before she turned to look at Weiwei.

"Are you really inviting me to work with you and not for you?" being a partner and being an employee are two very different situations and, obviously, Feng Tian could tell that.

"Yes, if you don't mind, I will give you 20% of the shares. I believe that even though we will be starting as a studio, very soon we will grow to become a household name and a large company. With your creativity, you could be the main designer of our company. I will also provide designs since I am very interested in the industry, but I will mostly work in management. What do you think?"

"Won't giving me 20% of the company shares be too much? I am only a designer after all."

Hearing what she said, Weiwei liked her even more. If it was someone else who was greedy, they would jump to accept the deal or even ask for more, but Feng Tian was different, she was honest.

"You might just be a designer, but designers are the heart of the company, so that is not too much. You have to accept it."

"Okay, if you say so, then I won't stand on ceremony."

She was very straightforward and not pretentious at all.

"It's a deal then, let's exchange contact numbers. We will meet when we are free to look for a location for our studio. I will contact my lawyer to draft a contract and prepare the required documents to register our company."

"Okay, I will leave everything to you then."

As they finished exchanging contacts, Weiwei's phone rang. It was Xinya. She knew that she was calling her to 'coincidentally' meet with Shen Hao and create a misunderstanding between her and Mo Shian. She picked up the call.

"Hello" her voice was very flat.

"Hello sister, are you still at the café?" came Xinya's sickly sweet voice.

"Yes, I am still at the café, what is it?" Weiwei asked as if she had no idea what they were planning.

"I am a bit hungry. Could you come to the restaurant on the third floor of the mall so that we can have lunch before going home?"

"Alright, I will be there in a moment." She replied before hanging up.

Seeing Weiwei accept her invitation, Xinya was elated as she was confident her plan would work. She convinced herself that the change in Weiwei today was due to her period and mood swings.

"Feng Tian, can you help me with something?" Weiwei asked.

"What do you need? I will help as much as I can."

"I just need you to follow me to the café and take a few photos, then send them to me later."

"What kind of photos?" Feng tian asked

Then Weiwei explained to her in detail the kind of photos she needed. After understanding, Feng Tian agreed to help and followed Weiwei back to the mall, but she remained outside the restaurant while Weiwei walked in alone.

As soon as Weiwei walked into the restaurant, she spotted Xinya sitting at a table near the window. She walked gracefully and sat down opposite her.

"Have you ordered?" she asked as soon as she was seated.

"I was just about to order. Let's have the braised fish, fried cabbage, shredded chicken, and…" She stopped talking and looked towards the door with a 'surprised' look on her face. If Weiwei had not gone through the same thing in her previous life and knew that everything was a setup, then she would have really believed that Xinya was surprised. She then stood up abruptly and called out

"Shen Hao…over here."

Soon, Shen Hao walked to their table and stood beside Weiwei. This time, Weiwei was clever and sat on the outer side, not giving a chance to anyone to sit next to her. Even after he stood there for thirty seconds, Weiwei did not budge, he had no choice but to move on and sit next to Xinya.

"Shen Hao, you also went shopping?" only after seeing him sit next to Xinya did Weiwei raise her head and look at him with a natural and innocent look as if nothing had happened.

"Yes, you bought me a shirt and I wanted to find a gift for you. So I came here. I didn't expect to run into the two of you."

Only now did Weiwei remember that in her previous life, Shen Hao had indeed given her a bracelet in an exquisite box and, since he had been sitting next to her, he had put it on her wrist, but he had moved so close to her that they looked intimate. Xinya had also taken advantage of this situation to take a photo and send it to Mo Shian. With a photo of her buying the shirt Shen Hao was wearing and an intimate photo of him putting the bracelet on her, who wouldn't misunderstand? Especially since she had asked for a divorce. Such a great plan. But this time, she will not let it succeed.
