Chapter 700 The most possible reason

Gu Manman apologized, but only she knew whether she felt guilty or not.

Gu Yan did not want to be entangled with Gu Manman over such a small matter. Since Gu Manman had apologized, she would not care if she was sincere or not. She would definitely not make things difficult for Gu Manman over such a small matter, as she was not a petty person who would fuss over every little thing. Instead of being entangled over such a small matter with Gu Manman, she would rather do a good job.

She flipped through the documents that Gu Manman had prepared. She had to admit that Gu Manman had done a very good job. Although Gu Manman looked insufferably arrogant and careless, the materials she had made were pretty coherent and impressed Gu Yan very much. It seemed that Gu Manman was indeed capable. Qi Changfeng did not talk nonsense.

However, this assignment did not have anything to do with the professional field. Gu Yan did not know if Gu Manman was really qualified for the job, but when she looked at the documents in front of her that had exceeded her expectations, she still decided to give Gu Manman a chance. This was because she thought that Gu Manman was indeed quite capable since she could complete the work so perfectly within just one day.

This time, Gu Yan chose to trust her intuition and Qi Changfeng’s recommendation.

“You’ll be responsible for the design of this project. I need you to give me a designing scheme later,” she said as she placed a folder on the desk in front of Gu Manman. She didn’t say which project it was, but just gave the documents to Gu Manman. Since she had agreed with Qi Changfeng, she had to fulfill her promise and give Gu Manman an opportunity.

Gu Yan remained silent for a long time, making Gu Manman, who had been nonchalant, nervous. “Will Gu Yan really fire me? How embarrassing it will be if I’m fired like this! Not only will I have no way to explain it to my cousin, but I will also miss the best platform to cultivate the relationship with Jiang Jingcheng.” Thinking of this, Gu Manman regretted her impulsive action today.

When she heard what Gu Yan said, she even wondered if she had misheard her. “She wants me to be in charge of this design? Is she kidding? Or she is just trying to get revenge on me?” She did not know.

Jiang Jingcheng was just as shocked as Gu Manman. “Has Gu Yan gone mad? Why does she suddenly want Gu Manman to be responsible for the design?” Even though Gu Manman had been working in the studio for so long, Jiang Jingcheng would not be at ease even when he asked her to do some work alone, let alone let her participate in the design. Gu Manman was really a very unreliable person.

At least in his eyes, this was the case. Hence, he had no idea why Gu Yan was doing this. Gu Yan was not the kind of person who would use her position to take revenge on Gu Manman. He was certain of this point. He knew Gu Yan’s tolerance and character.

Hence, Gu Yan’s words were even more thought-provoking. “What is Gu Yan thinking?”

“No!” Of course, Jiang Jingcheng refused without thinking. He said this all out of instinct. Although he did not know which project Gu Yan wanted Gu Manman to participate in, he knew that all the cases that this studio took were of high quality. Furthermore, no matter which client it was, this studio could not afford to offend at all.

Was Gu Yan simply handing over the designing right to Gu Manman? He could not agree to that. Although Gu Yan was the boss of the studio, he felt that the efforts he had invested in this studio were no less than hers. She cared about this studio, and so did he.

Jiang Jingcheng took two steps forward and opened the folder before Gu Manman did. When he saw what was in it, he felt even more unbelievable. Was Gu Yan crazy? This was one of the biggest designs of the studio recently. The other party was a giant company in Annan City. The studio could not afford to offend them at all, but why did Gu Yan make this decision?

Why did she hand over such an important design to Gu Manman? Jiang Jingcheng was really anxious now, like an ant on a hot pan. Could it be that he had misunderstood her and she really wanted to take revenge on Gu Manman? Therefore, she handed over such an important design to Gu Manman?

If Gu Manman messed it up, she could get Gu Manman to leave justifiably. Was that really the case?

However, Jiang Jingcheng immediately rejected this idea in his heart. “No, that’s impossible. It’s absolutely impossible. Gu Yan is not that kind of person at all. If she really wants to fire Gu Manman over such a small matter, then she is no longer the Gu Yan I know.”

But if that wasn’t the case, then what was the reason? Jiang Jingcheng couldn’t think of any other possibility.

Could it be that Qi Changfeng had asked Gu Yan for help?

At this time, he thought of the last time when he saw Gu Manman and Qi Changfeng talking and laughing happily. They seemed to be very close to each other, so Jiang Jingcheng was sure that they had a special relationship.

And now, Gu Yan was handing over such an important designing work to Gu Manman, which further confirmed his suspicion about their relationship. If there was no special relationship between Qi Changfeng and Gu Manman, there was no way that Qi Changfeng would arrange for her to work in Gu Yan’s studio. What was worse, Gu Yan was even taking advantage of her position to arrange an important job for Gu Manman.

When he thought about this, Jiang Jingcheng’s face darkened. “Didn’t Gu Yan hate this kind of thing the most in the past? What is going on now? Is she starting to add fuel to the fire now?”

Jiang Jingcheng knew that he should not suspect Gu Yan, but this was the most likely explanation that he could think of at the moment.

He looked a little gloomy. Gu Yan saw his expression, and so did Gu Manman. Not only did Gu Manman feel wronged, but she was also angry. Could it be that she was just weak in the eyes of Jiang Jingcheng? She could not tolerate others thinking that she was incompetent.

She knew that Jiang Jingcheng had misunderstood her in many ways, but only this misunderstanding was especially difficult for her to accept.

If she was really an apple of Sodom, she wouldn’t care what Jiang Jingcheng thought of her. But now, the situation wasn’t like this at all!

Although she was weak in many aspects, she thought that she was very good at designing. It could even be said that designing was the only thing that she was proud of.

But now, Jiang Jingcheng denied her ability without even thinking about it.

She was very wronged. Being misunderstood was a sad thing, but being misunderstood by the person she liked made her feel both sad and angry.

“You just tell me whether you are willing to do the designing or not.” Gu Yan ignored Jiang Jingcheng’s rejection. She just looked at Gu Manman with burning eyes and repeated what she wanted to express. Moreover, she was sure that Gu Manman already knew what she meant. What she needed now was just a decision.
