The sudden stop of footsteps made Tang Shaoyu hesitate. He subconsciously turned around and saw Shiyang looking at him blankly. Tang Shaoyu felt a little embarrassed.
He whispered to the other end of the phone: "You can deal with the trouble you brought out by yourself. I have something to do, so I'll hang up first."
After speaking, Tang Shaoyu hung up the phone and looked back at Shiyang.
"When did you come here?" he asked with a smile, trying to look as natural as possible.
Shiyang was also a little embarrassed: "I just came here a while ago. I wanted to see you for something. I saw you coming this way, so I followed you here."
"I just called you." Shiyang quickly explained, fearing that he would misunderstand.
"I guess I was busy on the phone and didn't notice you calling me." Tang Shaoyu was equally embarrassed. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but look at her, "Did you just...hear it?"
Shiyang hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.
Tang Shaoyu nodded: "Yes."
"Grandpa Shen was in poor health at the time. Shen Qingyao didn't want the old man to leave with regrets, so he forged Shangguan Linlin's paternity test report and lied that she was Shen Yu." Tang Shaoyu added.
"Fu Jingchuan... also knows?" Shiyang asked softly.
Tang Shaoyu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Yes."
"He..." Shiyang paused, "When did he know about it?"
"I knew it from the beginning..."
When he said these words, Tang Shaoyu couldn't help but pause, and couldn't help but look at Shiyang worriedly.
Shiyang just smiled, and then asked him: "Is he still looking for Shen Yu?"
"I don't know." Tang Shaoyu said honestly, "But I haven't seen him mention it."
Shiyang nodded: "I understand, thank you."
Tang Shaoyu couldn't tell Shiyang's attitude from her expression, so he tried to make the atmosphere more relaxed: "By the way, what do you want to see me for?"
"I just wanted to talk to you about my vacation tomorrow." Shiyang said with an apologetic smile, "If it's not convenient for the company, I won't take my vacation tomorrow."
"Okay." Tang Shaoyu was a little surprised at Shiyang's initiative to give in.
Shiyang pointed behind him: "Then I'll go and get busy first?"
Tang Shaoyu nodded: "Okay."
Shiyang went to the front hall to help greet the guests.
Although she was not in a good mood these two days, she did not let her mood affect her work. After welcoming the guests dutifully, Shiyang went to the lounge.
She needs to touch up her makeup.
During the groundbreaking ceremony, the chief designer was scheduled to speak on stage.
There are employee lounges and leadership-only lounges.
Tang Shaoyu arranged for Shiyang to have a special lounge for leaders.
Shiyang originally wanted to go directly to the employee lounge, but now that the preparations were completed, the employee lounge was already filled with people and there were no mirrors in it.
As a last resort, Shiyang went to the leadership-only lounge next door.
It was empty, no one was in the room.
This made Shiyang feel much more at ease.
She walked directly to the makeup table, took out her lipstick and touched up her lip makeup. Before she could finish it, the door to the lounge was pushed open.
Fang Wanqing's slightly complaining voice came next: "How come Tang Shaoyu is as stubborn as a donkey? He won't let his name be added even if he doesn't allow it, and he even went to Jingchuan..."
Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly when he saw Shiyang in front of Jiang's dressing mirror.
"Why are you here?"
Fang Wanqing asked, raising her arrogant posture involuntarily, "This is a lounge specially arranged for the chief designer. Who allowed you to come in?"
Fu Wujun, who was accompanying her, also saw Shiyang and immediately frowned.
"Did Jingchuan put you on the list of project designers?" Fu Wujun frowned even more and became a little angry, "What a nonsense! Linlin didn't put you in the list, but they put you in. This is what he did. Do you have to confront me about everything?"
After saying that, Fu Wujun looked at Shiyang and reasoned with Shiyang like an elder:
"Shiyang, whether Jingchuan wants to compensate you or want to make me angry, he is willing to spend money to send you to a prestigious school, or even set up a company for you to do whatever you want. That is his business and we have nothing to do with it. But the country The wind resort project is our hard work, and it is related to the company's reputation. If this gets out, it will damage the company's brand."
After saying that, he turned around and said to the accompanying bodyguard, "Miss Shi, please come out."
However, the accompanying bodyguard stepped forward to stop him and Fang Wanqing: "Director Fu, Ms. Fang, this is not your lounge. Please move."
"That's not her lounge, is it?"
Fang Wanqing didn't get angry, but couldn't help frowning when she looked at Shi Yang, worried that Shi Yang would use his title of design director to take away the credit of the chief designer.
This is all too common in the workplace.
She likes the design of the Guofeng Resort project. Naturally, Aiwu and Wudi have a good impression of Vivian, the designer behind it. However, due to Tang Shaoyu's intentional or unintentional arrangements, they have never had the opportunity to meet Vivian in person.
This time, I wanted to come over to say hello before the ceremony started, and mention it to her to see if I could add Shangguan Linlin's name.
They originally thought that the matter of adding names would be easy and they could just ask Tang Shaoyu to mention it. However, they did not expect that Tang Shaoyu was stubborn and could not persuade them to give up, so he directly reported the matter to Fu Jingchuan.
--------------------------
Of course, there was no need to think about the result. Tang Shaoyu used Fu Jingchuan's words to directly reject their request.
Whatever they mentioned, he always said apologetically, "Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, I can't make the decision on this matter. The old man is keeping an eye on it. How about I call you and ask the old man?"
They couldn't get up or down with just one sentence, and it was difficult to say anything else.
As a last resort, Fang Wanqing thought of chatting with the chief designer of the project and saying hello, but she didn't expect to see Shiyang as soon as she opened the door.
The bodyguard didn't know whether this was Shiyang's lounge or not, it wasn't up to him.
His scope of responsibility was only to protect Shiyang from being disturbed by Fu Wujun and Fang Wanqing, so he politely said to Fang Wanqing: "I'm sorry, this is not my scope of responsibility."
As he spoke, he stopped her and Fu Wujun and drove them out of the door forcefully.
Fang Wanqing felt so humiliated by being driven away that she was so angry that she didn't care about her dignity and cursed: "Who are you?"
"This is my company, my project. Do you have any control over which lounge I want to go to?" Fang Wanqing said while shouting to Shiyang in the room, "This is not the place you should be, please." go out."
After speaking, he turned around and looked at the accompanying secretary: "Contact Mr. Tang and ask him what's going on. The ceremony is about to begin. Why haven't we seen Vivian yet? Is he planning to let others claim the credit?"
The secretary on the side nodded quickly: "Okay, I'll make a call right now."
Shiyang couldn't help but curl her lips. She didn't get angry because of Fang Wanqing's words. She just calmly closed the lipstick cap, stood up and walked towards the door.
Fang Wanqing and Fu Wujun stood at the door, blocking her way.
"Sorry, you're blocking my way."
Shiyang said softly, without talking to them much.
Fu Wujun was not happy, and scolded him with a straight face: "Is this the attitude you should have towards your elders?"
Shiyang looked at him: "Elders don't have the attitude that elders should have, so please don't make demands on juniors."
After he walked around him and was about to leave, Fu Wujun said, "I want to talk to you about that child."
Shiyang paused slightly in his steps.
Fang Wanqing was puzzled and looked at Fu Wujun: "What child? Where did the child come from?"
Fu Wujun saw that the bodyguard hired by Fu Jingchuan was still watching. He didn't say anything clearly, but just looked at Shiyang, waiting for her to show weakness.
Shiyang suppressed the nausea in her heart and looked at him politely: "I'm sorry, I don't know what you are talking about."
After saying that, he nodded politely and turned around to leave. Fu Wujun wanted to stop him, but the bodyguard quickly stepped forward to block him.
"Director Fu, Ms. Fang, please move."
As he spoke, he pushed the person towards the lounge on the other side without any explanation.
Fang Wanqing, who felt offended, couldn't help but curse.
Tang Shaoyu, who was in the lounge next door, was notified and rushed over. As soon as he stepped forward, he saw several people gathered around the door of Shiyang's lounge, making a lot of noise.
"what happened?"
he asked, stepping forward.
"Shaoyu, you're here just in time." When Fang Wanqing saw the person coming, she immediately asked Tang Shaoyu as if she had seen a savior, "Shaoyu, where are the Vivian people? What time is it, why aren't you here?"
Tang Shaoyu: "..."
Fang Wanqing: "We thought the groundbreaking ceremony was about to begin. Since the project was finalized, we haven't had a chance to meet the chief designer in person, so I discussed with your Uncle Fu to come over to say hello and get to know each other."
"..." Tang Shaoyu coughed slightly and looked at her, "Do you want to see Vivian in person?"
"Shouldn't we meet?" Fang Wanqing broke away from the bodyguard's hold on her arm, patted her clothes in disgust, and said to Tang Shaoyu, "How long has it been since the project started? How can Party A not even meet the chief designer?" Yes. We are acquaintances and we trust you. It’s hard for you to arrange things and we can’t say anything. But today is the groundbreaking ceremony. Isn’t it possible that even the designer didn’t come? "
Tang Shaoyu smiled: "That's not possible, people have already arrived."
Fang Wanqing subconsciously raised her head and looked around, with a hint of anticipation in her expression: "Where is that person? Ask her to come over and say hello. A few days ago, your Uncle Fu and I thought about inviting her to dinner in person, but you It is inconvenient to say that she has taken leave, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it. We are all here today, please introduce her. Your Uncle Fu and I quite admire her works. You and I, Uncle Fu, are still thinking about what will happen in the future. It is impossible to establish a long-term cooperation with Vivian, and the company has plans for chain resorts in other cities."
"This..." Tang Shaoyu smiled awkwardly and turned to look at Shiyang aside.
Shiyang's face remained calm. She did not express any opinion on this issue, but nodded apologetically to Tang Shaoyu: "Sorry, Mr. Tang, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Okay, you get busy first."
Tang Shaoyu didn't stop her and let her go first with a smile.
Shiyang nodded, ignored Fu Wujun and Fang Wanqing, turned around and left.
Tang Shaoyu walked away as he watched.
Fang Wanqing saw that Tang Shaoyu had great respect for Shiyang. He thought he was worried about Shiyang's face. After all, it was Fu Jingchuan who arranged for her to come in and he was now the nominal design director of the company. She was ignored in person and skipped her to see her. The designers under her would not be happy to normal people.
She could understand, but she still couldn't help but remind Tang Shaoyu: "Shaoyu, the company should employ people based on their true talents and learning, and not nepotism."
Her voice was still her usual unhurried, cool and decent tone, with a bit of intentionality. Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, enough for Shiyang who was already far away to hear her.
Shiyang didn't seem to hear him, and walked out calmly without stopping.
Tang Shaoyu just couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "Auntie is right."
"What about Vivian?" Fang Wanqing put on a friendly smile again, and couldn't help but glance at her watch anxiously as she spoke, fearing that she wouldn't have enough time.
"I'm afraid she's not free now." Tang Shaoyu said with an apologetic smile, "It's okay, she will go on stage to speak later. There will be a buffet reception after the groundbreaking ceremony. Everyone has plenty of time to communicate, so don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry."
"But……"
Fang Wanqing frowned. How could she not be in a hurry? She just wanted to persuade the designer to agree to add a name to Shangguan Linlin before the start. In her opinion, a work involves multiple signatures, and adding more people after it would be very important to the chief designer. For them, it was just a matter of effort, but for their family and Shangguan Linlin, it was a matter of gold plating.
But thinking about how Tang Shaoyu had smiled and understood them earlier, turned around and called Fu Jingchuan with a smile, it was a smiley face, and she couldn't explain it clearly.
Tang Shaoyu couldn't see what they wanted to do, but he didn't expose it. He just smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, there is plenty of time. There will be plenty of time and opportunities for you to communicate well in the future."
After saying that, he said to the bodyguard on the side: "Please send Mr. Fu and Ms. Fang to the lounge to rest first."
Then he turned to Fu Wujun and Fang Wanqing with a smile and said: "Uncle, aunt, I'm really sorry, there are too many people in front, I have to go and say hello, you guys have a rest first, I'll call you if anything happens."
After saying that and making a gesture of calling, the person turned and left.
He went to the venue.
In the venue, he saw Shiyang who had already entered and sat down.
She will have the task of speaking on stage soon.
Therefore, he specially arranged Shiyang's seat in the first row, right next to Fu Jingchuan.
The name posted on the back of the seat is her Chinese name "Shiyang". He specifically did not ask anyone to add the words "Vivian". It was somewhat intentional and he wanted to keep it for the media before officially revealing Shiyang's identity. A little mystery.
There is no shortage of good designers in the industry.
But there is a shortage of young, beautiful, smart and gentle designers from world-famous schools.
Tang Shaoyu just wants to give the public this sense of surprise and surprise.
Shiyang had already sat down in her seat, her hands hanging naturally on her thighs, holding a mobile phone in her hand, and she was calmly looking at the staff preparing on the stage.
The soft side face looked calm and natural, not excited, nervous, or timid.
