Chapter 712: Chapter 712

So when they say that a daughter is naïve, she really is naïve.

Yang Baixin rubbed his brows slightly and instructed the secretary who had been waiting for a response, "Make a call to Chairman Xiao, and arrange a time to meet. Over here—no, it’s better to meet in Brazil."

Their current home in the United States was unknown to many.

The secretary left to carry out the task.

Yang Baixin glared at the mother and daughter, "Pack your things."

Madame Yang lowered her head and said nothing.

Yang Zhilin touched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "Dad has finally figured it out. Had I known, by joining forces with Brother Yebai and his group, everything would’ve been smooth."

Madame Yang looked up at her daughter, her lips trembling, but in the end, she didn’t speak.

Just like her husband said, their daughter wouldn’t shed tears until she saw the coffin—nothing they said would be of use anymore.

It was heard that Xiao Jianming was coming for an inspection.

Yao sister gasped when she heard the news from Fang Yongxing, "Just as I thought, something big must have happened."

"What big thing?" Fang Yongxing asked. Googlᴇ search 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵

Yao sister began to speak mysteriously, "Initially, those who were against us suddenly did a hundred and eighty-degree turn, all coming back to us for help."

"Business, of course," Yao sister said as she spoke of the recent changes that were as tumultuous as stormy weather, "I really didn’t expect it, guess who noticed me early on."

It turned out that the paper cup design discovered by Gu Nuan actually originated from a project by Zhao’s firm aimed at the mass market’s lower-end consumer group, requiring some convenient cups for drinking red wine. Those cups were piled up in a corner of the cabinet in Yao sister’s office.

At that time, while designing a club project for Zhao’s firm, Yao sister also designed these cups, but she had since forgotten about it because she dealt with many projects daily and such small designs were innumerable. Yet, Gu Nuan had the "Eyes of Golden Flame"—she’d only been to her office a few times, but it seemed like she had thoroughly figured out what was in there.

Thinking back on these details, Yao sister felt a creeping fear, not to mention what her rivals might think.

After hearing all this, Fang Yongxing laughed and said, "This may be the fault of your director."

"Ah?" Yao sister was taken aback for a moment.

What role did Zhan Dapeng play?

"As for you, I’ve certainly said little, almost nothing at all. If it wasn’t your director who praised your excellence to her, then it must have been one of your subordinates, or perhaps Tang Qingzhong. And she is definitely not someone who pays casual attention to just anybody."

Maybe Fang Yongxing truly understood Gu Nuan better, as he instantly pinpointed what made her truly formidable.

Indeed, the human brain has limited capacity. Gu Nuan didn’t have the ability to pay extra attention to everyone with the "Eyes of Golden Flame." Sun Wukong’s fiery vision was only used when needed, not all the time, or it would burn out.

Yao sister sighed, and couldn’t help but smile, "Are you subtly praising and flattering me? Let me tell you, my position is lower than yours, so sucking up to me is pointless."

"I’ve never liked to suck up to people, so what I’m saying is the honest truth, not to butter you up—your competence speaks for itself."

Yao sister fell silent for a moment, knowing exactly where her own competencies lay. Therefore, the genuinely formidable person was Gu Nuan. Think about it—Zhao’s firm might not have used her design from years ago, but Gu Nuan was like a perceptive horse watcher who immediately found the real value of her cup design.
