Chapter 518: Chapter 518: My Vision is Just That Bad (2)_1

Due to the appraisal meeting of "Yuerong Club" requiring formal attire, Xia Wan’an scheduled an appointment with a makeup artist and stylist to meet her at the venue, the "Four Seasons Hotel" where the event was taking place.

At four in the afternoon, Xia Wan’an called for a car in preparation to head to the Four Seasons Hotel. However, just before she was set to leave, Fan Ming suddenly barged into her office with a file in hand.

Xia Wan’an had a vague idea of Fan Ming’s intentions but she pretended to be oblivious on the surface, chatting about work with him. When Fan Ming mentioned that he needed to compare with an old file, Xia Wan’an knew that he had been leading up to this moment. She nodded in agreement, fetched her keys, and went to the office bookcase to carefully look for the document he needed.

Once she found the document and handed it to Fan Ming, he quickly identified an issue and left her office.

The car that Xia Wan’an had ordered was already waiting downstairs. The moment Fan Ming left, she picked up her bag and hurriedly left the office building.

Sitting in the car on the route to the "Four Seasons Hotel", she got to rummaging through her bag and took out a USB stick.

It bore an uncanny resemblance to her own USB stick, except there wasn’t an "an" etched in the spot that would have been least noticeable at the bottom.

As she thought, Fan Ming went through all the trouble of having her look for an old document just to swap out her USB stick?

Presumably, the design sketches in this USB could... potentially end her career, couldn’t it?

Xia Wan’an flipped the switched USB stick in her palm a couple of times, a mocking smile appearing in her eyes.

...

Upon reaching the Four Seasons Hotel, Xia Wan’an went straight to the suite that was reserved all year round for Han Jingnian at the top floor.

The makeup artist and the stylist had already arrived. Xia Wan’an gestured for the waiter to show them up, and then went to the bathroom in the bedroom to take a shower.

When she came out, wearing a bathrobe, she sat in front of the vanity mirror and let the makeup artist and stylist start their work.

Over an hour later, Xia Wan’an heard a soft voice saying: "We’re done, Miss Xia."

She opened her eyes and, looking at her even more stunning reflection—the result of meticulous grooming—she nodded in satisfaction. Seeing that it was already half past seven, she went downstairs to the venue.

By that time, the venue was already filled with people. As she approached the entrance, before even stepping in, she was accidentally bumped into by a waiter, causing the drinks he was holding on a tray to spill all over Xia Wan’an, ruining her dress.

The security at the venue’s entrance then obstructed Xia Wan’an, saying, "I’m sorry, miss. We can’t let you in until you’ve cleaned yourself up."

Facing the waiter’s frequent apologies and the security blocking her, Xia Wan’an’s brow furrowed slightly. Then it seemed like she remembered something. She looked into the venue through the open door and caught sight of Chi Mu standing tall inside. A triumphant smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Darn it! She had prepared for everything except for this kind of underhanded trick!

She knew that the venue doors were scheduled to close promptly at eight. If she couldn’t find a clean dress to change into before then, she wouldn’t be allowed in...

As virtually invisible stature oozed triumph coming from Chi Mu, standing among the glitterati, Xia Wan’an took her cellphone out of her pocket and quickly typed out a message.

"I’m at the Four Seasons Hotel. I need a dress by eight."

After swiftly typing out the message, Xia Wan’an glanced through her contact list for "Han Jingnian". But in her haste, her finger hit "select all" as she went to hit send.
