Chapter 225 The Fashion Competition
Although Liu Xin was very reluctant to humble herself before Liu Ran, she had no choice but to do so under the circumstances.
After all, a box of Imperial Jade Powder cost three hundred yuan. Moreover, even if she placed an order now, it would take a week to get the cosmetics. Liu Xin naturally couldn't wait.
Enduring the sharp pain, she drove towards Lantian Building.
Upon reaching the foot of Lantian Building, Liu Xin found it quite lively. Many young men and women were holding folders and hurrying into Lantian Building.
Liu Xin was a little curious. She got out of the car and stopped one of the girls in her early twenties, asking, "Little sister, what are you going into Lantian Building for? Applying to be a streamer?"
The woman shook her head and said, "Not applying to be a streamer, but applying to be a fashion designer. Yangyangyang Company offers great benefits to designers!"
"The key is that they don't look at experience or fame. Anyone with ideas can apply, and there's a chance they'll be hired. They're always recruiting."
Liu Xin was stunned when she heard this. She frowned and asked, "Why does she need fashion designers? Don't they sell cosmetics?"
The girl smiled and said, "How could the Yangyangyang Brand Design Company only sell cosmetics? They seem to be expanding into the fashion industry."
"Isn't there a fashion competition happening recently? The Yangyangyang Brand Design Company is going to participate in this competition!"
Hearing this, the anger in Liu Xin's chest surged. She was furious, never expecting that scoundrel Liu Ran would also participate in the fashion design competition.
This time, the first prize in the fashion competition would definitely go to Brother Long, and the Yang family's garment factory would secure it. Liu Ran, that little vixen, was truly overestimating herself.
Liu Xin gritted her teeth, but soon her expression changed. She walked into the building.
The security guard at the entrance stopped Liu Xin. Liu Xin immediately smiled and said, "Oh! Handsome, I'm not applying for a job, but you see, I'm your Director Liu's cousin! I'm really here to see her. How about I call her?"
The security guard nodded.
Liu Xin took out her phone and dialed Liu Ran's number. When the call was connected, Liu Xin immediately flattered and said humbly, "Oh! Cousin Liu Ran, I'm being stopped by your security guards downstairs. I've come to Lantian Building to see you about something important."
Liu Ran asked her what was the matter.
Liu Xin hesitated and said, "It's like this, haven't we both been scalded? We urgently need Imperial Jade Powder. Grandma sent me to get a batch from you for the clan members to treat their burns. Please let me up quickly."
Liu Ran, hearing this, understood and said, "Alright! Come straight to the top floor. I think I still have some here."
Liu Xin hung up the phone, cast a triumphant glance at the security guard, and then hurried towards the elevator.
Liu Xin arrived at the top floor and walked through the magnificent Lantian Building, feeling extremely jealous. This Lantian Building should have belonged to her originally, but now it has been occupied by that vixen Liu Ran.
Just as Liu Xin was about to walk further in, Liu Ran, carrying a bag, came to meet her. She said, "Cousin, here are fifty boxes of Imperial Jade Powder. Take them back for Grandma and the others."
Liu Xin took the Imperial Jade Powder but did not leave. She thought for a moment and said, "Oh! Cousin, your office is so magnificent! By the way, which one is your office? I want to take a look."
"I'm so envious of you, working in such a spacious and magnificent place, and the entire building is yours."
As Liu Xin spoke, she walked towards Liu Ran's office.
Liu Ran frowned and quickly stepped forward to stop Liu Xin, saying, "Cousin, if you have nothing else, please go back first. I still have work to do!"
Liu Xin put on a pitiable expression, covered her neck, her eyes red, and said, "Liu Ran, do you hate me that much? I'm your cousin, after all!"
"Look, this time, Brother Long lost three hundred million yuan, and our entire Liu family lost two hundred million yuan. You used all this money to buy Lantian Building."
"Yet, after acquiring Lantian Building, your luck has been so good, and your business has been smooth sailing. But what about us? We were scalded directly in the hospital."
"We lost money and got scalded. Now that I'm here at your Lantian Building, can't I even have a look around? After all, half of the money in this building is ours!"
Liu Xin said pitifully while barging into Liu Ran's office.
Hearing Liu Xin's pitiful words, Liu Ran felt helpless and couldn't bring herself to directly kick Liu Xin out.
After entering the office, Liu Xin pretended to be surprised, "Wow, this office is so magnificent, so luxurious! Is that a bedroom behind you? Your office is so great, it not only has a place to work but also a place to rest and sleep!"
"Is this your temporary workstation? There are so many drafts on it, that's great! Your office has everything, I envy you."
Liu Ran listened to Liu Xin's rambling and frowned impatiently, but she couldn't drive Liu Xin, who was injured, away.
After all, Liu Xin looked very pitiful at the moment, and the bandage on her neck was indeed large. Most importantly, Liu Ran also felt that she had benefited greatly from this deal, and that the other five hundred million yuan in Lantian Building did belong to Yang Long and the Liu family.
Liu Ran patted her forehead and said, "Cousin, please go back quickly. After I finish my work, I'll come to the Liu family residence to see you all."
Liu Xin nodded. She pretended to rest her hand on Liu Ran's workbench, but in reality, her hand had already quietly pulled out a design drawing and quickly rolled it into her sleeve.
After doing this, Liu Xin lingered for a few more words before leaving.
After carrying the fifty boxes of Imperial Jade Powder and leaving the building, she didn't have time to return to the main residence and immediately called Yang Long.
Yang Long was indeed very busy at the moment, and he sounded a little impatient when he heard his wife's call, saying, "What is it?"
Liu Xin immediately said, "Brother Long, I've just received important intelligence. Do you know? That vixen Liu Ran is also going to participate in the upcoming fashion competition."
Yang Long heard this and laughed, saying, "She sells cosmetics, has no designers, no garment factory, and no tailors. What will she use to participate in the fashion competition? Why would she participate in a fashion competition?"
Liu Xin said nervously, "Brother Long, you must not underestimate that vixen Liu Ran. Although her character is terrible, I have to admit that she is indeed very talented in design."
"And designing clothes has always been her strong suit. She won first place during the centenary celebration of Qingzhou University!"
"How about this, I've already secretly taken one of Liu Ran's design drawings. I'll send you a photo of her design drawing. Brother Long, take a look and see how the clothes she designed are."
