Chapter 1206: You Are My One And Only (16)
Mo Feifei’s heart trembled. She was so nervous that she almost forgot how to breathe. She was afraid that he would call her and say some words that would expose their relationship.
After all, gossip was a fearful thing.
She didn’t want to get on the bad looks of everyone on her first day at work.
Shang Mo’s eyes stayed on her for a while before he looked away. His stare was so cold as though he did not know her at all.
This was what she wanted, however, Mo Feifei felt her heart being dampened mysteriously.
It was as though a stone was weighing her down.
She also didn’t know why she felt so uncomfortable.
Shang Mo casually picked a few people out to comment before his hand pointed at Mo Feifei. “You, what do you think?”
Mo Feifei froze.
Everyone’s gazes were focused on her as she stood up while still in shock. “Me…?”
Questioning voices surrounded her until someone said, “She is the new employee who just started work today…”
Shang Mo cut her off. “That’s even better. She doesn’t even need to guess whose designs these belong to.” With that said, he looked at Mo Feifei as his voice turned gentler than before. “Which art design did you choose?”
The atmosphere turned tense as Mo Feifei scanned the crowd. For a moment, she thought that Shang Mo was giving her a chance to present herself yet at the same time, she felt that Shang Mo was causing trouble to her.
After all, both of the designs were from famous masters. Regardless of who she chose, she would offend the other one. Please, she was just a newbie who had just started work.
She pursed her lips and thought for a while before saying, “I choose the design on the right but I appreciate the left one better.”
The cold, deep eyes fixed on Mo Feifei, who also had a strong aura and pressure, enveloped the entire office with a heavy feeling. Shang Mo asked the question everyone was thinking about. “Why do you appreciate one design yet choose the other one?”
Mo Feifei relaxed both of her hands as well as the tenseness on her shoulders. She slowly raised her eyes and smiled before saying, “Both of the designs are designed for a construction project. The nature of the design for a living area should be comfortable and should aim to make lives better. The design on the right is more warm and comfortable. Hence, if I had to choose, I would prefer my house to look like that.”
She paused for a while and then said, “The other design is more bold and sharp. Art should be daring and artists should persistently challenge customs, social dogma, and cultural practices. This design is very bold and arrogant yet had a mental restraint. It was the total opposite of art pieces from traditional designers. Its beauty comes in the form of combining both the traditional aspect and the modern aspect of life. It’s too bad that I can only choose one design otherwise it would have been perfect…”
As Mo Feifei reached the end of her speech, Da Wei looked at Mo Feifei deep in the eyes. He then saw Mo Feifei, the girl who had just arrived at the department, in a new light.
He thought that this new designer seemed to be the real deal.
However, this didn’t mean that Da Wei believed in Mo Feifei’s abilities.
In the end, Shang Mo used both of the designs and arranged them in different areas. He did it mostly because of Mo Feifei’s words.
When Mo Feifei went to the washroom, a doubtful voice could be heard. “Did you know where Mo Feifei came from?”
“I don’t know. I heard that we aren’t hiring any designers and yet a new designer suddenly popped out of nowhere. I don’t believe she doesn’t have any help from the higher-ups.”
