Reborn: The Return of the Villainous Mr. Liu

Chapter 985: Root out



Liu Corps.

"Did you understand?"

Alix leaned back on her chair with a raised brow as she completed her briefing to the design team. The design team from Ren Designs consisted of three main designers who were in charge of the art and production of the clothes and new designs.

She had just completed explaining her plan and vision of what she wanted to achieve at the fashion show, a request made by the politician, Wang Tianhui. The three designers shared shocked glances.

Zou Guo cleared his throat. "Mam, are you sure you want to go through this?"

"Why? What is the problem?"

"Isn't this too risky for the company right now? Wang Tianhui is a very influential politician…"

She let out a yawn. "Every politician is influential."

"I mean to say if anything goes wrong, then we will directly make enemies with a politician's party," he rubbed his throat in nervousness. "S-Shouldn't we go slow?"

Feng Yusheng's opinion was divided about this. "It's a risky bet. The concept behind these designs is good but it's kind of…a 50-50 chance that it will work."

Alix smiled. "I take mindful risks, not mindless ones. So rest assured. I am not throwing an arrow in a blind alley."

The last designer, Zhong De, was still studying the design drafts. "How did you come up with this idea, Mam?"

Her eyes twinkled. "Unlike your old Boss, your new CEO is very talented."

He let out a cough.

"Plus, we have to go big if we want to make any impact. Small steps are not going to work," she shrugged. "The bigger the display, the flashier the outcome."

Zou Guo gulped. "But isn't the Wang family covered in scandals from head to toe? Are you sure you want to make…Wang Xia the face of your new designs?"

"It's a fashion show, Zou Guo. She is not going to be the only model walking down the ramp."

"But Wang Tianhui will work to make only her as the highlight of the show…"

"Well, if she does her modeling job well, then why not?" She shrugged.

Zhong De asked, "How much time do we have to work on this?"

"A month. The fashion show will be held around four weeks from now on the 17th. The first Saturday of the month being a weekend day, the eyes will be all upon us~"

"But the raw materials and fabrics to make the clothes…it is not suitable. I don't think we will be able to handle such a big project at this point in time," Zhong De solemnly said.

Alix chuckled. "Like I said, your new Boss is very talented. You will get everything you want and of the top quality. So rest assured. I know what I am doing."

Feng Yusheng stared at her thoughtfully and held no apprehensions to voice out anymore.

After they left, Alix stretched her arms in a good mood and made her way to Jin's office, whistling along the way. She knocked on the door, making him look up.

"You are not allowed in my office."

"Don't you want to hear how the meeting with the designers went?"

Jin focused back on his laptop. "I should install blinds on your office door."

"So you saw everything~"

"I just saw you enjoying yourself," he snorted.

Alix walked in and took a seat opposite him.

"You are still not allowed here," he glared.

"Don't be like that. Who will I talk to if not you?"

"Go talk to Grandpa. He has a lot of free time these days," he grimaced, seeing a text from Liu Hai on his phone.

'Jin, Jin, Jin! There is a new ramyeon restaurant that has opened up! Don't forget to bring one bowl for your most favorite Grandpa while you return~! I will give you a good reward!' Find adventures on My Virtual Library Empire

Jin gave a disdainful look.

What am I, a kid to get lured in by reward at this age?

He ruthlessly deleted his message without a second thought.

"Sure," Alix replied. "Is it okay if I talk to him over a bowl of ramyeon?"

"..."

"How do you…"

Alix showed her phone with Liu Hai's text.

'Jini-boy must have definitely deleted my message so you keep reminding him of bringing my ramyeon okay? Okay? I will give you a super good reward!'

Jin stared at the message, dumbfounded.

"First of all, when did you two exchange numbers?"

"The day when Zhou Ai's parents came to Liu villa. He can be very persistent."

His brow twitched hard.

Grandpa!!!

"Delete his message," he scoffed.

Alix frowned. "He wants ramyeon."

"And many other delicacies to eat. But you cannot get everything you want, right? He is an old man. Let him behave like one if he wants to live for longer."

Alix typed back.

'He wants you to behave like how an old man of your age should.'

She got an instant reply.

'WHO THE HELL IS OLD HERE!??? I will beat the crap out of that brat!'

And there were angry and crying emojis at the end as if expressing his injustice and grievances.

She got another message.

'Keep reminding Jini-boy of my ramyeon, okay? I will definitely add your name in my will!' He texted, ending his message with an emoji with sparkly eyes.

Alix looked speechless.

He will add me in his will just because I could feed him?

"Anyway, who was the crooked one?" Jin asked with a raised brow.

"Hm?"

"Among the designers."

Her eyes twinkled. "Oh, you finally look curious."

"I surmise you won't leave until you are done explaining your shady tactics so I might as well speed up the process," he smiled.

"Smart thinking."

His gaze darkened.

"The right answer is Zhong De, ding, ding, ding!"

She waved her phone at him. "I read some texts between him and my dear sister. She definitely has him on her side. The low quality clothes out in the market before were all thanks to him."

"So the other two are clean?"

"I didn't see any text messages or calls from those two so I don't have evidence. But I won't close my eyes with blind trust even for a moment."

Jin tilted his head. "Why did you tell them of your plan? That first one is definitely going to spill the beans to your sister."

Alix chuckled. "It is exactly what I want. It's time to root out my sister and the mysterious person she is hiding behind from the muddy waters. To get her involved with the fashion show is the sureshot way of ending their deal once and for all~"
