Chapter 903: Ill-treating Mi Nuo, the Gu Family Faces Bankruptcy! (2)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
As Mi Nuo strolled along the shopping streets, she grew more anxious.
Didn’t they say that the flagship color this summer was red? But why hadn’t she seen any rack of red clothing in any of the shops?
Occasionally, there would be a red article of clothing slotted in between some other clothes, but it was there merely to provide some contrast. When she heard what Zhuang Nainai said, her expression immediately changed.
Red was a bold color, and to get more consumers to wear red-colored clothing, some fashion-conscious consumers had to set the trend for the rest of the world. If not, if someone decided to wear something red in a sea of people dressed in neutral colors, they would look like a bride participating in some kind of festive ceremony. Wouldn’t that be a huge joke?
Mi Nuo was used to getting the upper hand on things. And Mi Nuo had heard their conversation for herself when Zhuang Nainai was speaking to Si Jingyu. Mi Nuo had never taken Zhuang Nainai seriously. She always had the impression that she could manipulate Zhuang Nainai as she pleased. That was why Mi Nuo had been deceived.
After Mi Nuo had ordered the designers in the Gu Corporation to design red-colored clothing, they had voiced their suspicions about it being the color in trend for the season. However, Mi Nuo was insistent that she had insider information, and they had to come up with designs for red-colored clothes.
Someone had said, “Even if everyone starts producing red clothes, the clothes won’t be coats nor woolen sweaters. These are clothes meant for the summer. It’s too risky to design bright red clothes. Why don’t we lighten the shade of red? That would be safer. If we have to design red clothes, we shouldn’t make it the flagship color for the season. We could have some clothes in other colors to provide a contrast.”
Mi Nuo sneered. “The Gu Corporation has not made any progress because of you stubborn, insular people! You’re stubbornly refusing to take up this business opportunity even when it’s right in front of you!”
The group of designers’ faces flushed with anger at her words. They lowered their heads in fury and humiliation.
Mi Nuo was triumphant. “I’m the General Manager of the company, so listen to what I have to say. The flagship color is red!”
Thus, all the clothes on display in the Gu Corporation today were red in color!
Mi Nuo was eagerly anticipating her return, when she could gloat in front of the team of designers, but she had never thought…
After hearing Zhuang Nainai’s reply, she hurriedly rushed to the Gu Corporation’s flagship store. She saw a sea of red clothes. Then, she looked around at the clothes in the other shops. They were a lot less flashy and more simple. It was only then that she quickly realized that she had been deceived!
She stood looking at the clothes in the Gu Corporation’s store, stunned.
A couple walked past her and they were laughing as they said, “The clothes from this brand were pretty nice in the past, but their designs have gotten more common with time. Especially the clothes for summer this year. Have you seen them? Are they now a shop selling wedding attire? Are they not making normal clothes anymore?”
After they said that, they clasped their hands to their mouths and walked away.
Mi Nuo felt as if an invisible hand had just slapped her twice soundly.
Her cheeks throbbed with pain and were flaming red. As she thought about this, she turned around and stalked off toward the shop where Zhuang Nainai and Lin Xi’er were.
From a distance, she saw Zhuang Nainai still shopping for clothes, still deliberating if she should buy something. Without thinking, Mi Nuo rushed over!
―
Zhuang Nainai was indeed deliberating if she should buy the clothes. Her salary wasn’t high at the moment, and even though she was already the Director of Sizhe Design Studio, they had only just started generating a small profit. That profit was a liquid fund for investments, and it wasn’t her money.
She used her monthly salary to buy toys for her two sons.
Thus, as she looked at that article of clothing, deliberating if she should buy it, she eventually put it down and said, “I’m not buying it.”
She stood up, about to leave with Lin Xi’er, when she heard Mi Nuo’s thunderous roar from a distance. “Zhuang Nainai!”
