The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Chapter 542 left a trick up its sleeve

Mu Ya'an frowned, looking at Aunt Li's very unnatural expression, and her expression gradually became serious.

She looked intently at Aunt Li, recalling Aunt Li's behavior in the restaurant earlier, as well as Gong Juncheng's reaction.

She had never doubted anything before, but at this moment, her expression involuntarily turned serious, and she said in a deep voice.

"Aunt Li, have you done something behind my back?"

Hearing Mu Ya'an's question, Aunt Li took a deep breath, her gaze falling on Mu Ya'an, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and finally fell silent.

Looking at Aunt Li's expression, Mu Ya'an roughly understood something.

She looked intently at Aunt Li, then sighed and said in a low voice.

"I see."

"If you want to move out, then move out."

After Mu Ya'an finished speaking, she turned around and went upstairs.

When Gong Juncheng returned late at night, he saw that Mu Ya'an was still lying in bed and had not fallen asleep. Gong Juncheng's expression immediately turned serious, and he said in a cold voice.

"Why are you not sleeping yet."

Mu Ya'an raised her head, looked at Gong Juncheng, pursed her lips, and then said in a low voice.

Aunt Li wants to move out.

Upon hearing this, Gong Juncheng's expression turned cold, and his eyes became more indifferent.

"This is your business; you can arrange it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Mu Ya'an bit her lip and whispered.

“I didn’t know she would do this today.”

She paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice.

"I'll talk to my grandfather. I'm sorry, Jun-sung..."

Gong Juncheng listened to Mu Ya'an's words with a cold and stern expression, and then said in a detached voice.

"Sleep."

Mu Ya'an pursed her lips, not wanting to say anything more, and simply nodded quietly.

"it is good."

Early the next morning.

Aunt Li packed her things and left early in the morning.

When Mu Ya'an got up, the maid immediately went to her side and whispered something.

"Aunt Li is missing. This morning, I thought she had gone out, but after checking her room, I found out that she had packed all her things and left."

Mu Ya'an's expression remained remarkably calm, and she showed no other reaction, simply nodding slightly and speaking in an exceptionally calm tone.

"I see."

Aunt Li has always been like this; I didn't want to cause her any trouble, so I left on my own.

Mu Ya'an took a deep breath. Actually, this matter couldn't be blamed on Aunt Li; it was her grandfather's arrangement.

Seeing the heavy expression on Mu Ya'an's face, as if she had known about this all along, the maid then spoke softly.

"Aunt Li is so old, and she has no relatives or friends in Beicheng. Where will she go?"

"Miss Mu, did you know she would leave?"

Mu Ya'an nodded, her tone calm.

"They probably went to my grandfather's place."

She glanced down at the time and said in a deep voice.

"I have other things to do at the company, so I'll leave now."

The maid nodded upon hearing this.

Gong Juncheng left very early this morning, and judging from their appearance, it seemed that nothing had happened.

The maid looked away from Mu Ya'an, and only after Mu Ya'an left did she realize that Mu Ya'an hadn't eaten breakfast.

When she chased after her, Mu Ya'an had already left in her car.

The maid sighed helplessly and sat back down in her chair.

When Mu Ya'an arrived at the company, she met Qi Chen at the entrance. Qi Chen immediately followed Mu Ya'an upstairs in a friendly manner.

Throughout the entire process, he kept talking non-stop, while Mu Ya'an listened to him very quietly.

Upon arriving at her office, Mu Ya'an opened the door and found the office in complete disarray.

When the design team arrived at her office and saw this scene, their faces were filled with shock, staring at what they saw in disbelief.

"Miss Mu, what do we do now?"

Mu Ya'an squatted down and picked up the sketches on the ground, her expression becoming more serious.

"It's okay, we can do it again."

When Mu Ya'an heard what he said, his men became disheartened.

"But we already did it yesterday, so the ideas now certainly won't be as good as yesterday's."

"It's obvious that someone is preventing us from doing this design."

Within the company, the answer to who is capable of accomplishing these tasks is already very clear.

Mu Ya'an remained calm as she listened to the servant's words, her expression remarkably composed, her tone even and natural.

"I will investigate."

Hu Bing and others rushed over to watch the show.

"Ms. Mu, I heard you've run into some trouble. Do you need our help? I told you before, when choosing a designer, you should choose one who has participated in the design process. This can avoid a lot of trouble. Look at your situation, it's a complete mess now."

"The factory has already started urging us. If you haven't submitted your design drafts yet, other companies will have already released new models, while we're still dragging our feet."

Hu Bing spoke these words with an extremely arrogant attitude.

Mu Ya'an glanced at the designers standing beside her and, seeing that their morale was low, said in a deep voice.

"This time, someone is sabotaging us behind the scenes, and it has nothing to do with whether or not you participated in the theme design."

"Didn't Sister Bing start as a newcomer? Everyone just needs a chance. I think everyone's design concepts are very good."

“We are just newcomers, yet we can make those who cause trouble so wary. It is obvious that she actually recognizes our talent and is worried that we will take her place.”

"So we need to work even harder and not let them succeed, right, Sister Hu Bing?"

Hu Bing listened to Mu Ya'an's words with a very cold expression.

Her gaze was coldly fixed on Mu Ya'an, and finally she nodded slightly, her eyes filled with contempt.

“What Miss Mu said is not without reason.”

"Since Miss Mu is so confident, let's wait and see."

After Hu Bing finished speaking, he glanced indifferently at Mu Ya'an.

Mu Ya'an smiled faintly, a smile tinged with confidence, and said in a low voice.

"can."

Seeing Mu Ya'an's calm demeanor, Hu Bing's expression became more puzzled.

A hint of resentment flashed in her eyes before she turned and left.

After Hu Bing and the others left, Mu Ya'an took out the drafts they had designed the day before from her briefcase and said in a low voice.

"Indeed, sometimes, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be wary of others."

"Luckily Mingzhu reminded me, otherwise, I probably would have been tricked by them again."

As Mu Ya'an spoke, she took out all the design drafts and distributed them to everyone.

Everyone looked surprised upon seeing this.

Unexpectedly, Mu Ya'an had a backup plan.
