CHAPTER 686: CHAPTER 682: GU LIANCHENG PALE BEFORE CHENGZI

Perhaps due to going to bed too late last night, Shen Cheng woke up at nine thirty in the morning.

Remembering that she had a meeting to attend today, she quickly got out of bed to tidy up, changed her clothes, and left without even having breakfast.

Luckily, it wasn’t the peak hour for work, so it took her less than twenty minutes to drive to the company.

Before leaving work yesterday, she had asked her assistant to inform each department that this morning’s meeting was scheduled for ten past ten, and she arrived at the company at forty-nine past nine, which left her with some time to deal with some work on hand.

Before she arrived at the company, her assistant had already placed some contracts that needed to be signed and stamped, along with some documents, on her desk and thoughtfully sorted the files.

This made it easier for Shen Cheng to handle.

She spent just five minutes to scan through all the contracts that needed to be signed, and after confirming there were no errors, she had her assistant double-check before stamping them with the company seal.

In the meeting room, the high-level executives from various departments had arrived early, including Gu Liancheng.

A large group was chatting, a small group was discussing work, and only Gu Liancheng sat quietly by herself, not saying a word.

A colleague nudged her gently with an elbow and asked with a smile: "Chief Designer Gu, is the new seasonal highlight design coming out soon?"

Gu Liancheng was very popular in the company, not only because she was the renowned Chief Designer, but also because she was beautiful, gentle, and sociable.

Such a woman was a temptation to men and a role model for women.

Hearing her colleague’s question, Gu Liancheng faintly curved her lips into a smile: "Yes. The finished product should be out next month."

Her smile was as clear and pure as water, without any impurities.

"Once the finished products are out, will there be a jewelry exhibition? And which celebrity are we looking for the endorsement this season?" the colleague asked again.

"There should probably be a jewelry exhibition, but it hasn’t been decided yet, let’s wait for the decision from higher-ups. As for which celebrity to endorse, I’m not clear on that," Gu Liancheng patiently responded to the question.

"Actually, I think the company should consider having you endorse it, a designer endorsing her own work would surely have a great impact," said the colleague.

As Gu Liancheng looked up, she saw Shen Cheng walking in and responded with a smile to her colleague, indicating that they could chat after the meeting ends.

The colleague understood and did not say anything further, lowering her head to organize the documents in front of her, ready for the meeting.

After entering the meeting room, Shen Cheng courteously said "Good morning everyone," before sitting down in the main seat.

Her outfit was the same as yesterday – a white shirt, a black suit jacket, black suit trousers, and a pair of matching high heels.

The heels were not tall, as she was not accustomed to wearing high heels that were too high.

The only change was her hair; because she was in a hurry and didn’t have time to deal with it, she tied it up simply with a hair tie, slightly disheveled, yet not sloppy — so beautiful it seemed unreal.

When she took her seat, she attracted the attention of many male executives present, her casual demeanor exuded an elegance that was amazing.

A beautiful woman who seemed untouched by worldly concerns.

Even the outstanding Gu Liancheng seemed a bit overshadowed in her presence, especially in terms of aura, the difference was even greater.

The assistant placed the materials needed for the meeting on the table in front of Shen Cheng, then took out a pen and a notebook and stepped aside.
