Chapter 89 - Romantic rival out of thin air (1/2)

Despite Lu Aotian's extreme protection, there was bound to be a time when he would be a little distracted.

It was during the time that he went to take a phone call that an ardent admirer ran over to Wan Jia to try out his luck.

”Hi beautiful,” he greeted in a gentlemanly manner.

Wan Jia was not in the mood to talk to men who were obviously trying to hit on her and only nodded half heartedly.

The man was content that he was not ignored and pushed his luck a little further.

”My surname is Guo and my name is Guo Haisheng. Beautiful, how should I adress you?”

”Mrs. Lu.” she answered.

The man suffered a blow but laughed it off. Mrs. Lu? They were only engaged. Who knew if they would actually get married?

However, seeing that the beauty was obviously keeping a distance, he changed his tactics.

”I'm the Vice President of Climax Studio. I see that you have a very impressive talent in fashion design. If you don't find our company too shabby, I would like to invite you over. The terms will be adjusted to suit your requirements.”

At the mention of Climax Studio, her expression changed.

”But I sent my portfolio over and was rejected.” She said.

The man frowned. Sent her portfolio? He and his brother, CEO Guo, had tried to invite her by all means. He was in fact just striking a conversation believing that she would not agree. Who knew that he would come across such a shocking truth?

”What are you talking about? We, Climax Studio, have always been appreciative of talent. How could we...” he thought about something and his expression changed. President Lu seemed too protective of this beauty. Could he have interfered with the invite they sent over as well as her portfolio?

”Something might have gone wrong in our offices. Please forgive our carelessness and consider us.” he said.

If even he could think of such a possibility, how could Wan Jia not have discovered?

Damn that Lu Aotian! He could really go to any extent to make her have no choice but to go to Elite Fashion World. No wonder she had not recieved a single invite.

”I'll think about it, Vice President Guo.” she said distantly.

The way this man was looking at her, it would be best to keep her distance.

”So, designer Wan, do you think we could exchange phone numbers?”

Wan Jia frowned. ”Vice President Guo, I don't think it would be a very good thing to flirt with a potential subordinate.”

”Sorry, my bad. I just...nevermind. If you really come to our company, you don't have to worry about me trying to get close to you. The company is very strict against relationships between superiors and subordinates.”
