Summer Kiss

Chapter 19 Conspiracy
Jiang Yuning glanced around, then immediately stepped forward and covered Meng Shuyu's mouth, whispering a warning to her.

"My little ancestor, please spare me! Don't make wild guesses. There really is nothing between us."

"I'm not going to chat with you anymore, I'm going back to work."

Jiang Yuning returned to her workstation, inserted a straw, and took a sip of her milk tea. The sweet milk tea did indeed improve her mood considerably.

Jiang Yuning took out her phone again and looked at the WeChat message Fu Xicheng had sent her. She sent him a thank-you emoji.

After putting down her phone, she quickly got back to work.

She opened the design software, looked through the client's information, and made significant changes according to the client's requirements.

After some time, she completed the first draft.

Jiang Yuning didn't rest and continued to refine the design drafts in her hands. At this moment, Qin Susu walked over with her phone.

She glanced quickly at the client information on Jiang Yuning's desk and the design drafts on her computer.

She handed her phone to Jiang Yuning and pretended to chat with her casually.

"Jiang Yuning, you have better taste than me. Could you help me decide which color of this bag suits me best?"

Jiang Yuning was stunned. This was the first time Qin Susu had taken the initiative to chat with her, and she found it incredible.

Jiang Yuning thought to herself, Qin Susu wanted to chat with her, so she couldn't just send her away. She took the phone from Qin Susu's hand and started looking at it carefully.

With her back to the monitor, Qin Susu bent slightly, resting one hand on the table, seemingly looking at her phone, but actually quickly glancing at the client information on the table and the design drafts on the computer.

Although this design draft was not the final version, Qin Susu still managed to memorize it.

After browsing the bag and reading the reviews, Jiang Yuning suggested, "Qin Susu, I've noticed you often carry dark-colored bags. This time, you could try this light apricot-colored bag; it might give you a different feel."

Qin Susu picked up her phone, a smile on her face, "Thank you, Jiang Yuning, your taste is truly unique."

Qin Susu chatted with Jiang Yuning for a few more minutes before returning to her office seat.

She was worried about being monitored and also about being overheard, so she didn't contact anyone on WeChat immediately.

Jiang Yuning continued refining the design drafts on her computer, completely unaware that a huge conspiracy was brewing around her.

...

In the tea room, Lin Yao took a cup of coffee and spoke quietly with Qin Susu.

"Susu, how come you've gotten on good terms with Jiang Yuning lately? Didn't you always dislike her?"

Qin Susu thought to herself that although Lin Yao was her little follower and she had spent a lot of time with her, there were some things that only she could know.

"Yaoyao, I have my own plans. In the future, I will try my best not to have any conflicts with Jiang Yuning in the office."

Lin Yao didn't understand Qin Susu's actions, and asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Yaoyao, don't talk about everything in the office like Huahua does. Do you think the director doesn't know what's going on in our office? You also know that the director favors Jiang Yuning. If you have a conflict with Jiang Yuning, whose side do you think the director will take?"

"Don't tell these things to outsiders. Just keep it to yourself. On the surface, I'm trying to get along well with Jiang Yuning, but in reality, I only see you as my little sister."

Lin Yao instantly understood Qin Susu's meaning. She took Qin Susu's arm, smiling broadly. "Susu, you've always been my best friend."

After pouring the coffee, Qin Susu returned to her seat.

Soon it was time to leave work, and Qin Susu dawdled for a long time before finally being the last to leave the office.

After she got into her car, she didn't rush to drive away. Instead, she took out a pencil from her bag and roughly copied the design drafts on Jiang Yuning's computer based on her memory.

Upon seeing the copied design draft, she took a picture of it and sent it to someone on WeChat. After sending the picture, she typed a few words and sent it over as well.

After doing all this, Qin Susu became cautious and immediately deleted all the WeChat chat history and pictures from her album.

On her drive home, a phone number without a contact name called, and Qin Susu answered it quickly.

A cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone, "Ms. Qin, you did a great job. The 10 yuan has been deposited into your bank account. Please check it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Susu immediately suggested, "Mr. Gu, could you please allow longer intervals between the things I do in the future? You're asking me to get close to Jiang Yuning in such a short time. Aren't you afraid she'll become suspicious of me?"

"As long as you do things perfectly, even if you did it, she won't suspect you."

"Ms. Qin, don't you want to get rid of Jiang Yuning from the design department as soon as possible? If she makes frequent mistakes in a short period of time, do you think your superiors will continue to favor her?"

Qin Susu felt that Gu Yan's words made sense, so she did not continue arguing with him.

"Then I wish Mr. Gu every success, and I look forward to your good news tomorrow."

……

Perhaps because of Fu Xicheng, Jiang Yuning was full of energy. Even after returning home, she was still busy refining the design drafts in her hands.

Late into the night, she looked at the revised artwork with satisfaction, and after confirming that there were no errors, she sent the artwork to the director and copied it to the client company.

Because she stayed up late last night, Jiang Yuning arrived at the company at exactly eight o'clock. She vowed that she would never stay up late again; she simply couldn't get up.

She poured herself a cup of hot water and had just sat down in her office chair when Meng Shuyu came over. "Yu Ning, I went to report something to the director, and he asked me to call you over."

Jiang Yuning hummed in agreement.

Upon arriving at the director's office, Jiang Yuning knocked twice. Only after hearing someone inside say "Come in" did she push the door open and enter.

When Director Wang saw the visitor, he pointed to the chair opposite his desk, indicating that Jiang Yuning should sit down.

After Jiang Yuning sat down, Director Wang finally spoke, "Xiao Jiang, you need to learn to balance work and rest. Sometimes you don't have to work as hard as a man. Look at you, you were drawing until almost dawn last night."

Jiang Yuning hadn't expected the director to inquire about her personal life. She nodded and said, "Director, I understand."

Director Wang observed Jiang Yuning's expression and, seeing that she seemed unaware of the situation, asked directly, "You sent the artwork to the client close to midnight last night. Did you see the email the client sent you this morning?"

Jiang Yuning woke up late today and hasn't had time to check her phone yet.

The director came to see her early in the morning. Could something have happened?
Jiang Yuning asked, "Director, I haven't checked the email yet. Is there a problem?"
