Xin Ziqing was making arrangements eagerly on her side, and Rong Dai did not dare to relax either. She had calmed down over the past two days. A name alone could not prove anything.
"Ms. Rong."
Zong Che knocked on the door and came in, sitting down in front of her.
"We will set off for France tomorrow. Here is the itinerary I've arranged. Please take a look and see if there is anything else that needs to be added."
Rong Dai took the tablet he handed over and carefully went through the itinerary.
"It's very detailed, no issues."
Zong Che nodded and forwarded a copy of the itinerary to Lu Nianzhi as well.
"Zong Che, there's something I need you to arrange in advance."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Rong Dai frowned slightly and asked him to stay for a moment.
"What else can I help with, Ms. Rong?"
Zong Che had just stood up but sat down again.
Rong Dai shook her head with a furrowed brow: "I'm just a little worried. I feel like participating in the Wings of Fashion show this time may not go as smoothly as expected."
Although Ningyue Fashion and Shi Ning had collapsed, Xin Ziqing had emerged again now.
She hoped she was overthinking things, but she had to be prepared.
"How would you like me to arrange things then, Ms. Rong?"
After thinking for a while, Rong Dai took out a file folder from a drawer under her desk.
She then pressed the intercom to ask Song Xuechun to come in.
Soon, Song Xuechun walked in hugging her design portfolio. Seeing Zong Che there as well, she instinctively shrank back a little.
"Ms. Rong."
Rong Dai nodded, signaling her to sit down. She then took out the design drafts from the file folder and handed them to the two to look at.
"Xuechun, I want you to come with us to France this time."
Song Xuechun's eyes lit up in pleasant surprise. "Really? I can go too?"
Rong Dai nodded. "Of course. But I have made some arrangements that may inconvenience you."
"For this competition, I have prepared two sets of submissions. I want the first set to be entered under your name."
"Jinxiu Boutique recently hired a new design director. I will explain more about this person after I have confirmed things."
Song Xuechun pushed her glasses up and nodded seriously, "No problem! As long as it benefits our company, Dai'er, just tell me what to do and I won't hesitate at all!"
Rong Dai smiled, touched by her loyalty. "Then let's keep this confidential for now. No one else in the company should know, especially not Jing."
The news about Mu Lanxiang came from Jing's friend who worked at Jinxiu Boutique. Rong Dai did not doubt Jing, but if that person really was the Imperial Noble Consort, she would surely do something like this!
Zong Che's brows furrowed slightly but he did not ask further.
Song Xuechun looked like she wanted to ask something but eventually just nodded, "I understand, don't worry."
Rong Dai nodded and handed the documents over to Song Xuechun.
"You keep this set of design drafts. Just treat it normally, no need to be too nervous."
Song Xuechun anxiously took over the documents. Only after she left the office did Rong Dai allow Zong Che to leave as well.
"You suspect Jing's friend?"
Rong Dai had not expected Zong Che to see through her thoughts so quickly. She smiled and nodded, "The timing of the news was too deliberate. I can't ignore it."
"If that's the case, we can make use of it too. But if Jing finds out, things may become more complicated."
Zong Che frowned at her. "Ms. Rong, from now on, let me know in advance about any plans you have. Otherwise I won't be able to coordinate appropriately on short notice."
"Since you and Mr. Huo have appointed me to this position, I need your absolute trust."
Rong Dai looked at him for a few seconds. "No problem."
She had just decided on the spur of the moment this time, just to be safe.
