Xia Yanle even went so far as to reach out and hug her slender waist, causing Qin Ning to jump off the bed in shock and anger.

"Don't touch me! Only Brother Weiran can hug me!"

Xia Yanle pulled on the summer sky-blue quilt and gave a witty reply.

"It's okay, just round it off and treat me as him!"

Anyway, a part of him once existed inside her.

Qin Ning didn't realize the deeper meaning behind this; she just cursed him for being shameless and stormed off.

Xia Yanle didn't really intend to hug her; he was just teasing her.

Xia Yanle is a lone wolf type who is not good at getting close to people; the only person who can get so close to her is Bai Weiran.

In the second round, she suffered another crushing defeat. Qin Ning tossed and turned on the sofa all night, seething with anger.

Qin Ning could find fault with everything in daily life, from eating and sleeping to dressing, just to make Xia Yanle back down.

Xia Yanle only found Qin Ning amusing and cute, and wasn't afraid at all.

What is there to be afraid of in a person with principles?

Mr. Weiran's bottom line is Qin Ning's bottom line.

Their lives became very lively.

What started as a simple argument escalated into a violent confrontation, with Bai Weiran's stainless steel chopsticks becoming mottled and damaged by the steak knife.

At first, Friday was trembling every day, hiding on the wardrobe and refusing to come down. Later, I gradually got used to it and found my good friend - the bonsai. Every day, I would squat next to the bonsai and watch the two yanderes bicker and fight. Occasionally, I would open my mouth to bite and stretch out my claws to nudge it, biting off all the little bit of new green side shoots that the bonsai had grown with great difficulty.

Although Qin Ning and Xia Yanle are fierce rivals and irreconcilable, they are truly exceptional when it comes to work.

They are all clear about what's important and prioritize efficiency. When they work together, their efficiency and clarity in issuing instructions are so high that the project team doesn't notice anything amiss.

It was the weekend. Although Xia Yanle had agreed to assist with the project, she wasn't like Bai Weiran, who would relax and read intently on the sofa on her days off. Qin Ning, eating grapes, squinted at Xia Yanle on the sofa.

She always finds other ways to make him suffer.

At the same time, she looked at Xia Yanle's beautiful legs peeking out from under her oversized sweatshirt with a hint of jealousy.

Her legs were well-proportioned and slender than most people's, with exquisite details at the ankles and knees. Especially her feet; Qin Ning compared them to her own and couldn't help but puff out her cheeks.

Like Mengmeng, she has cute little feet that are a bit chubby for a young girl.

Smaller than the average girl's, with delicate pink toes like cardamom, Xia Yanle's feet were very feminine, with exquisite and beautiful arches. They looked rather slender and thin on their own, but Qin Ning, with her years of shopping experience, could tell at a glance how eye-catching these feet would be when wearing heels.

After looking around, Qin Ning suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Hello, Miss Xia."

"...?"

"Don't you have any clothes to wear? Why do you always wear Weiran's clothes?"

Xia Yanle propped her forehead up and slowly turned the pages of the book.

"I really don't have any clothes to wear because I don't have the money to buy them."

Actually, she did know; she knew where the card was kept and also knew his payment password.

But she's lazy, too lazy to go out, and just wants to stay comfortably at home.

At the same time, he was trying to find a way to kill his potted plants.

He actually dared to buy her some ointment and send it by express delivery, with detailed instructions on how to use it.

Apply it with your finger—

Damn it!

She squeezed out the entire tube of ointment and mixed it into the soil of the potted plant.

When you get back, you can clean up the dead potted plant yourself!

"I'll take you to buy it!" Qin Ning snorted, flashed a black card, and with a flick of her finger, displayed her arrogance while her eyes were filled with calculation.

"It's so pitiful to have no clothes to wear."

"And I don't want to see you wearing Weiran's clothes all the time."

Xia Yanle saw through Qin Ning's scheme.

She could refuse to fall for it, but then her mischievous nature as a fun-loving person made her change her mind.

Rather than guarding against conspiracies and tricks, she prefers to take the initiative and then fight back.

She closed the book, a cunning yet exquisite smile spreading across her face.

"Qinqin, you're so kind, of course I'd like to."

Qin Ning was very happy. She remembered the cloth bag that Bai Weiran had initially disliked about her.

You can put a cloth bag over my head too!

Xx

In the VIP room of the department store, the reception staff looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Miss Qin, you said—?"

“I said, bring me your worst-selling and ugliest styles this season.”

"………………?!"

The waiter was sweating profusely.

Miss Qin is a top-tier client of the brand every year, how could she make such a request?

Qin Ning flipped through the catalog, a malicious glint in her eyes.

"Yes, the more conservative the better, clothes that make her look like a sack, no, like a burlap sack, bring them all out for her to change into... Ah! This one is very good, bring this up."

The waiter was so afraid that he had misunderstood that he scratched his head in frustration.

"That young lady has a great presence; even if she doesn't wear those clothes, we have many other styles to recommend—"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ning immediately frowned, raised her chin, and displayed an arrogant demeanor.

"Don't interfere, and don't tell me what to do."

"I'll do whatever you say. Bring them here and change them all for her."

Chapter Twenty-Three: Even a Beauty Looks Good in a Burlap Sack

Qin Ning was quite selective about the brands she chose.

The brand's summer runway looks were met with widespread criticism, resulting in record low sales.

The new designer's wildly imaginative ideas have been incorporated into clothing, featuring exaggerated black silhouettes and inspired by muddy volcanic craters, oil-polluted seas, the desolation of a meteorite impact, and the devastation of hollowed-out forests.

These elements resulted in a disheartening overall feel to the clothing, drawing widespread criticism.

Hearing the changing room curtain being pulled open, Qin Ning looked up with delight, eager to see a clumsy, bulky burlap sack doll.

Then, Qin Ning was stunned—

The clothes themselves are not good, but Xia Yanle has a certain charm.

Indifferent, disdainful, with the aura of a supermodel on the runway.

Unlike other girls who are covered in clothes and admiring their own cuteness while twirling in front of the mirror, she was not like other girls.

She turned the tables and suppressed the dress.

No matter what she wore—an evening gown, a men's sweatshirt, or a linen outfit—it didn't matter.

I am a queen, radiating confidence.

Xia Yanle was a bit taller, and the originally shapeless and ugly burlap sack-like outfit was transformed by the saleswoman's skillful addition of a waist belt, which elevated her overall demeanor.

All that's missing is her hair and makeup before she can walk the runway.

Qin Ning was stunned.

Who asked you to make her look good?!

"Miss Qin, this dress isn't something just anyone can pull off with style. It's beautiful, and your friend looks stunning."

"As expected of your friend!"

It turns out that even a beautiful woman looks good in a burlap sack.

The sales clerk breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his hands together, greeted customers with a smile, and praised them.

They were also panicked at first.

Seeing Miss Qin Ning's fierce demeanor, gritting her teeth, and looking as if she were an irreconcilable enemy, one might assume that she had brought not friends but enemies.

But they secretly discussed who would bring their enemy to buy clothes from luxury brands that cost five figures?

Give me a dozen of these enemies.

So they're definitely not enemies, just friends playing around. You argued with your best friend, and if you actually believe it and help her scold them, they'll make up and then come after you. Sigh, being a working person is so hard.

This is truly surprising, given that Qin Ning has been used to a life of luxury since childhood. Asking her to go to a discount mall to find rags is something she really couldn't imagine. While others can simply order cheap, ugly clothes with shipping included on Taobao and be done with it, Qin Ning wouldn't even bother ordering those clothes as she would pollute her shopping cart.

However, the sales clerk could not disobey Qin Ning, so she could only try to understand the emperor's wishes and work hard to improve the styling of the ugly clothes.

Seeing the good results, I breathed a sigh of relief and stood by, smiling and clapping.

They wore the designated clothing, looked great, and didn't offend either side, thus achieving a satisfactory result for the brand.

Xia Yanle raised an eyebrow at her, and Qin Ning was furious, but she couldn't just say that she wanted to be ugly.

It's okay to have little schemes, but admitting them makes you look cheap.

She could only feign indifference, acting like a cold and domineering CEO, pointing to the other outfits that were only uglier than the worst.

"Okay, let's try all of these."

…………

………………

An hour later, Xia Yanle was surrounded by sales clerks, managers, and stylists.
