"Awake?" Mo Beichen's deep voice came from the dim room.
Xia Weilan was stunned for a few seconds and found that she was lying on Mo Beichen's lap. The office was quiet.
Xia Weilan suddenly sat up, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Have you finished the meeting?"
"Yeah." Mo Beichen also stood up and picked up his coat.
The two walked towards the elevator in tacit understanding. As Xia Weilan walked, she felt a bit embarrassed.
"Have you been waiting for me for a long time?"
"Yes." Mo Beichen pressed the elevator button and draped his coat over Xia Weilan's shoulders.
"You've just woken up. You're easy to catch a cold."
Xia Weilan suddenly smelled a man's fragrance, which was quite pleasant.
"I'll let Ruili join the company to assist you tomorrow." Mo Beichen said indifferently as he stepped into the elevator. "Let her be your assistant."
Xia Weilan pulled the coat closer. "I'm just an intern. It's not appropriate to have an assistant..."
"You're not an intern. You're the young lady of the Xia family." Mo Beichen suddenly gave her a heavy look.
"Oh," Xia Weilan coughed lightly and said subconsciously, "Isn't this special treatment?"
Hearing this, Mo Beichen stared seriously into her eyes. "You have blood that others don't have. It's self - deception if you're not special. You can act like a young lady in the company. It's your right. You'll manage them in the future, so you can't be without any prestige. Not to mention bringing a bodyguard, even getting rid of the villains in the company is your responsibility."
Looking at his obviously serious but caring expression, Xia Weilan suddenly had an epiphany.
"You're right. I can't serve tea and water for others, nor can I be bullied."
What happened in the Xia Group today clearly showed that someone didn't like her and wanted to teach her a lesson.
Otherwise, the elevator, which had been working fine for years, just broke on the day she joined the Xia Group.
Thinking of this, Xia Weilan agreed with Mo Beichen's words.
The next day, Xia Weilan and Ruili went to the Xia Group together.
"Good morning, young lady!" The security guard immediately saluted warmly when he saw Xia Weilan today.
Manager Yang even escorted Xia Weilan to the door of the design department before leaving.
In the design department, when Xia Weilan and Ruili walked in, everyone immediately looked at Xia Weilan. Their looks were different today. There were envy, admiration, and jealousy.
"Hey, young lady, why did you bring a bodyguard today? Are you afraid someone will bully you?" Le Gaogao walked up to Xia Weilan and snorted.
"Isn't this the standard for a young lady?" Xia Weilan gave her a sideways glance with a smile.
"Humph." Le Gaogao touched her nose. "Anyway, let me tell you the truth. You still have a lot to learn. Watch out in the future."
After saying that, Le Gaogao turned around and left.
Xia Weilan looked at Le Gaogao in confusion. She always felt that Le Gaogao didn't seem to have any ill - will today, just a bit stubborn.
At the morning design meeting, Xia Weilan still sat in the corner.
"Weilan, your design this time is quite good." The design director named Xia Weilan at the beginning. Xia Weilan looked up.
"However, you may not be clear about the company's situation. The company has always designed mainly with rubies, and there are no cooperating suppliers for emeralds. So, you need to revise your design draft."
"I remember that the company launched an emerald product a year ago, and it sold quite well..." Xia Weilan said neither over - bearing nor humble.
"Yes, it did. But later, there were problems with the materials from that supplier. So far, the company hasn't found suitable high - quality emerald materials. That's why we've always designed mainly with rubies." The design director explained.
"I see." Xia Weilan didn't say more.
But she felt a bit sorry in her heart because her design draft was designed for emeralds. She also thought that her design this time was very suitable for the preferences of young people. If it was changed to rubies, the effect would be a bit worse.
After leaving the meeting room, Le Gaogao walked up to Xia Weilan and said awkwardly:
"Newcomer, it seems you don't know much about our design content yet. I have some materials here. Take them back and have a good look."
As Le Gaogao said, she stuffed a stack of her precious documents into Xia Weilan's arms and then ran away.
Ruili raised her eyebrows and said to Xia Weilan:
"I didn't expect you to make a friend on your first day in the company."
Xia Weilan returned to her desk. When she looked up, she saw Le Gaogao quickly lowering her head, pretending not to be paying attention to her.
Xia Weilan put her design draft on the table.
Ruili said regretfully, "I like this design. It's a pity to change the plan."
"I never thought of changing the plan." Xia Weilan said. "Since what we lack is an emerald supplier, we'll go and find one. Anyway, there's still a week before the official submission."
In the director's office.
Xia Weilan knocked on the office door. The voice of the design director came from inside.
"Come in."
When the design director saw Xia Weilan, a flash of thought crossed his eyes. He asked seriously, "Miss Xia, what can I do for you?"
Xia Weilan put the previous design draft on the table and said to the design director:
"Director, I'd like to ask if the company has suitable emerald resources, can this design be adopted?"
The design director looked at the design draft carefully again. After putting it down, he said:
"To be honest, I'm very optimistic about this design. If there are suitable emerald resources and this design is put into production, I believe it will be a hit this year."
Hearing the design director's affirmative reply, Xia Weilan showed a confident smile on her face. "I'll try to find a distributor. With your words, director, I can rest assured."
Xia Weilan said this as the young lady of the Xia family. The design director also noticed this and immediately said seriously, "Young lady, it's not easy to find a distributor. And the quality of emerald resources varies. It's not that easy to find a good channel."
Otherwise, no one in the Xia Group would have done this. It was because of the certain risks that this matter had been postponed and became a deadlock.
Speaking of which, a jewelry company that only focuses on rubies has a rather single product line. Facing the diverse jewelry products nowadays, this is a major weakness.
"I know. I'll inspect the goods myself before signing the contract." Xia Weilan said with a confident smile on her face.
The design director looked at Xia Weilan disapprovingly. But things other than the design were really not up to her to decide, so she had to nod.
"Well, I won't interfere in things other than the design. You can decide for yourself."
"Okay." Xia Weilan then backed out and gently closed the door.
