CHAPTER XLII

Early that morning, the studio was busier than usual.

Regular employees are busy making themselves look busier, and interns are busy doing things they don't normally be good at. For example, Miss Koizumi gave me a good errand and was responsible for directing the flower delivery workers to arrange the flowers.

The countless perfume lilies were freshly plucked early in the morning, and the petals were still covered with crystal clear dewdrops. Workers paved the way to the exhibition hall with two rows of flower baskets, and I took a break and stood aside.

Who will be here today?

There was a soft sound of "click", which made me feel uncomfortable. I saw that Imaie was standing next to the garbage can not far from him, slowly lighting a slender cigarette.

She raised her eyes and cast a cold glance at me, and I subconsciously stood up straight, forgetting to bend down to her for a moment.

"Intern?"

"Yes." I made up for that belated bow, "Hello." ”

She retracted her gaze, held the black cigarette between her fingers, handed it to her lips and took a puff: "Name?" ”

"Susu."

"Chinese."

"Yes."

She looked away again and looked at me.

"I used to have an apprentice who looked like you." She said, "Susu, huh? I looked at the clothes you made. She smoked her cigarette slowly, paused, and when she looked at me again, her gaze became sharp, and she locked her gaze on me, "Tell me, who taught you that pleating method?" ”

My breathing suddenly increased.

"I ......" I subconsciously wanted to go back.

"Ah, isn't this my most respected Imaeda-senpai?" A female voice came from behind him, and Imae frowned and snorted in disgust.

She turned around, and I realized that it was Margaret Rose.

Last year, at the door of the autumn and winter press conference of Zhinian Shuxi, we met. That time I bumped into my male partner who was traveling with her, and she mistook me for someone else.

It turned out that it was her......

"I'm not welcome I'm coming?" She took a few steps closer, "I can't help it, I happened to be in Kyoto, so I proposed to help supervise the work with Yuichi, after all, it's an important fashion week this year." Seniors are always working behind closed doors in the studio, so they can't hear the outside world? ”

"Margaret, this is not your show, let's finish it early." Imaieda said as she walked back, but was grabbed by the oncoming Margaret Ross, who was tall and thin, dwarfed in front of Margaret, who was born in Europe, and Margaret Ross broke her shoulder: "Together, senior." ”

The face of the branch was like frost, and it was in a stalemate, and Miss Koizumi trotted over.

"Mr. Jin. Ms. Ross. She turned a deaf ear to what was happening in front of her, and looked up to Margaret in a polite remark, "You're here so early, and the venue hasn't been set up yet." ”

Margaret Rose also glanced at her, but she still said to herself, "I heard that you like perfume lilies the most, so I specially prepared these flower baskets to welcome you." ”

She didn't say whose mind it was, but Margaret Rose understood: "Thank you, you have a heart." ”

Miss Koizumi decorated her utilitarian tone with a flattering tone: "No, no, this is what the president meant." ”

"Oh?" Margaret Rose finally looked at her, and she showed a look of disbelief, "I didn't even know that Youyi's taste was like this, are you*?" ”

Ms. Ross ...... I...... No, this is ......" Miss Koizumi, who realized that she had made a mistake in the sycophant, turned pale and kept bowing to her, "It's the flower basket that I ordered on my own initiative, and it has nothing to do with the president." ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to accept my thanks? Thank you for your kindness to me. Margaret Rose patted her on the shoulder affectionately, "Come, good girl, please do me a favor and give these beautiful flowers to your subordinates, and thank them for all that they have done for Zhinian Sook-hee." ”

"Yes, Ms. Rose." Miss Koizumi nodded repeatedly, then turned her head sideways to look at me, I understood what she meant, but before she could call out my name, Margaret Rose stopped her again.

"You'll put this in their hands, right?"

Miss Koizumi's whole body stiffened, and various emotions on her face took turns, and finally turned into a smile of false obedience: "I will, Ms. Ross, please rest assured." ”

"Then please hurry up and do it."

"But I'll receive you today......"

"Isn't Imaeda-senpai here?" Margaret Rose urged, "Imasa-senpai, let's go in." Hurry up and finish it, I'm going to have lunch with my darling. ”

When they entered the exhibition hall, Ms. Koizumi and I stayed where we were, and I tried to leave quietly, but Ms. Koizumi stopped me.

She threw me a perfumed lily, and I took it.

As if declaring, she said to me, "I will keep in mind the shame of today, no one will always be in a high position, and I will not always be the one who endures." She paused, "You know what I mean, and you're putting up with it, aren't you?" I remember the look in your eyes that day, no better than I do now. ”

I grabbed the perfume lily branch and said to the back of her picking the flowers, "You are mistaken, Miss Koizumi." ”

She stopped.

"I agree with some of the points you said that day." She turned around and met her gaze, and I continued, "What I can make, Ima-eda's team can do better." I agree with you. But I acquiesced to this approach, not because you are my boss, so I have to endure your injustice to me. I just don't want to live up to such a good design, and I hope that the brand can bring more surprises to those who love her. ”

"Are you teaching me a lesson?"

"Don't dare." I say.

"Oh, that's ridiculous, do you mean I desecrated the job? Do you know how I got to where I am today? And on what basis do you teach me? She raised her voice abruptly.

"You're mistaken."

She got angry and reached out and grabbed the collar of my shirt, "Intern, you're underestimating me, aren't you?" ”

The workers around us looked at us.

Her strength was so strong that I just had a hard time breathing. I grabbed her hand and whispered, "Please let go." ”

She leaned close to me: "I see that you always look like you're on top, huh?" It's disgusting to look like this. Poor student, who do you think you are? ”

I gasped, "Miss Koizumi, calm down." ”

"I'm calm, there's no need to be angry with someone like you." As she spoke, she pushed me backwards with all her might.

I heard the sound of buttons collapsing, and I was busy protecting my chest, and for a moment I didn't care about the floor slipping under my feet, and in the process of retreating, my waist hit the trash can behind me, and the trash can was fixed, and I didn't have time to exhale pain, and I was bounced off uncontrollably and fell to the side.

Facing him was the row of tall flower baskets.

There's no way around it...... I clutched my open placket, closed my eyes, and fell in the direction of the flower basket.
