Chapter 75 - We Are Not Done Yet (1/2)
Some people become your habit
Some habits become your nature
And nature become your individuality
When did giving Xu Mey a call or kissing her forehead in the morning and before going to bed or calling her cherry wife became a habit? Ye Jie didn't realize at all.
And when did sleeping soundly in his arms with his heartbeat acting as soothing music or his smiling face whenever he looked at her became a habit? Xu Mey didn't know as well.
These small habits were becoming a part of their nature without them feeling it at all. This week wasn't much different. Except for the fact that Ye Jie was acting like Xu Mey's personal chauffeur. But he loved to play this role. They got to spend time together and talk. Actual talk about random stuff.
Whether it was some news playing on the radio or a song, they'd easily start a conversation over it without feeling awkward.
In this week, Xu Liqing was feeling content thinking that Ye Jie must have been angry and rude with Xu Mey after everything she sent him.
Unbeknownst to her, their relationship was moving steadily because of her stupid mistake in the fit of rage. She didn't try to contact Ye Jie because she was busy planning the deal with Jade Stones which they were about to sign this week.
It was Thursday. The day, CoCo Jewels and Jade Stones were publicly going to announce their collaboration. The big screen in the conference hall of Vintage Gems was showing the live broadcast of the press conference.
As both companies were signing the contracts, all eyes in the hall shifted to the young lady in white sitting like an empress at the head seat. She looked like a pure fairy with a snow white dress complimenting her jade-like skin. But the fairy's cold aura was missing. Instead, she had a languid look almost like she was bored enough to even look at the press conference.
All of a sudden, her personal assistant whispered something to her and she nodded in reply. Qin Hao, her assistant changed the channel which was playing the press conference and connected his phone to play an internet video instead. The video was from an international blogger.
"Sapphire designs welcome you all friends of the media. We are glad that you've come forward to support us." A beautiful foreigner lady in a golden and black dress spoke in fluent French. "All of you must be curious about the agenda of this press conference. So, without further ado, I would like to invite our general manager to say his piece." The beautiful lady gave her spot to a middle-aged man.
"First of all, thanks to all of you for joining us. The agenda of today's press conference is to share very important news with everyone." He took a pause as the media went into discussion mode. "Sapphire Designs is proud to announce that we are collaborating with one of Asia's most prominent company, Vintage Gems."
Not just the media but the people in the conference room had mixed expressions. None of them expected this outcome from Xu Mey. They thought this time, President Xu was done for but who knew, she'll find her way around. And that too with Sapphire Designs? It wasn't only the most popular brand in Country F but also in entire Europe.
"And with this collaboration, Vintage Gems will be opening their first 3 stores in Paris anytime during next month. The time and date will be shared with you and we'd like you to come to show your support." With that, the video ended.
All the board members looked at Xu Mey without a word. She didn't react much but her cold chilly voice rang out, "We are not done yet. Qin Hao!"
