First Marriage Then Love Chapter 116

Chapter 116

116 Who stole the drawings?

After the family had dinner, Lin Xiaofen took An Ran in the living room, telling her about things to take note of during pregnancy, like avoiding cold and raw foodstuffs, no lifting of heavy objects, avoid looking up past the angle of your forehead, so on and so forth . While Su Yi Cheng remains with Dad, having tea in the study room playing chess and  chatting .

Gu Hengwen’s mouth was raised the entire night, and he was in a good mood . He had made several wrong moves and only realized this after his forces were taken by Su Yi Cheng .

Gu Hengwen made his move, then reached out and took the pot of tea that had  been sat aside, stirring it a few times . Poured for himself and Su Yi  Cheng, the smile on his mouth remain for the whole night .

Su Yi Cheng move his rook directly against Gu Hengwen's general piece,  smiling and said faintly, "Dad, it's check . "

Gu Hengwen was stunned and turned to look at the chess game . It was more  than a check . It was already checkmate . He was already out of moves .   Laughing, he handed the tea over to Su Yi Cheng and said, "It seems that  today I don't have hope to win back a game from you . I have lost game after  game . "

Su Yi Cheng took the cup of tea over with both hands, smiled and said, "Dad was only distracted, so I’m lucky enough to win a few games . ”

"I am just so happy . " Gu Hengwen said with a smile, "There has been no  happy event in the family for a long time . Just the thought that I am going to be a grandfather soon makes this old body of mine to be unbelievably excited . "

Su Yi Cheng listened, the corner of his mouth was in a faint smile .

"Thinking about it, time has past by really fast, it’s almost thirty years in a blink of an eye . When An Ran was born, she was only 5 pounds, such a tiny baby . " Gu Hengwen said as he reached out and gestured, his lips in an uncontrollable smile . “When the nurse hold An Ran out to me, I really  didn’t dare to pick her up . She’s too small . I’m afraid I’ll damage her if  I’m not careful . But how can I not hold her? She was crying so pitifully . "  As he was saying this, as if thought of something, he looked outside and  said, "When she was young, An Ran was a crybaby, every other thing she would pressed her lips and pouted, eyes full of tears . "

"Kekeke, is that so?" Su Yi Cheng answered with a smile .

"Yeah she was . " Gu Hengwen looked at the darken night outside the window,  and felt a little emotional . "Haiz, time really flies . In the blink of an eye, the baby that I was still holding in my hand, the babydoll that is crying pitifully is now already married . And not long later will have her  own children soon, and experience the feeling of parenthood . " Over the  years, he had watched her grow up, watched her study, watched her work, even looked at her love, and then looked at her saddened and cry because of her failure in love . Then watched her not sleep for a few days and nights because of work, and then watched her marry . Although he did not personally walked her along the aisle to give her hand away to the man that will  accompany her for a lifetime, but still she looks good and she looks like she has been very happy . Now that she is pregnant, maybe what's remaining is watching her step by step learn how to be a good mother .

Turning to look at Su Yi Cheng, laughing and shaking his head, "Recalling all this now, I really feel a lot . Now that you and An Ran are going to have children, you will be able to experience my current mood in future . "

Su Yi Cheng nodded and looked at Gu Hengwen . He said, "Thank you Dad for teaching An Ran so well, because of you and mom, I have the opportunity to  meet with An Ran, live with her, and now have children . "

Gu Hengwen looked at him and said after a while, "You won't understand what An Ran means to me, but if you make An Ran sad in future, I will not spare you . This is a father's right and is also a warning from one man to another  man . "

Hearing this, Su Yi Cheng nodded very seriously . "Maybe I may not be able to give An Ran the best, but I will definitely make An Ran happy . " This is his guarantee to him .

Gu Hengwen looked at him, and then thought back to the child who was so  tiny in his arms . The time has really rush by in a flash . Now, in retrospect, he was really glad that he had let Xiaofen to have the child,  No matter if this child has no blood relations.h.i.+p with him, she will be the  daughter of Gu Hengwen .

It’s almost 9 o'clock in the evening when they leave the Gu household, and Lin Xiaofen used the thermos to store the chicken soup that was left for them to bring them back home to drink .

Sitting in the car, An Ran held the thermos bottle on her lap, humming a song on her lips, the smile on the corner of her mouth was visible all  night .

Even when she got home, she continued humming . When Su Yi Cheng finished his shower from the bathroom of the guest room and went back to the room,  he saw An Ran sitting on the bed, leaning back, looking at the magazine in her hand, sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking her head,  seemingly mouthing something .

Su Yi Cheng seems to have been infected by her smile . He laughed and went to bed from the other side of the bed . He reached out and took her into his  arms . Tonight, he didn't want to think about the work that he could never finish . He wanted to hug her like this, just her and the baby, gently  patted her quilt, he let her adjust to a comfortable position in his arms,  and then asked, "What were you talking to your mother about the whole night, just look at you, been all smiles the whole night . "

An Ran handed him the magazine in her hand and pointed to the picture in it . The picture is a family of three . The three people are wearing a parent-child costume . It is especially interesting . In the past, she would have just flipped the page, but now she was staring at this picture for a long time, she knows that the three people in the picture may not necessarily be a family, but she was still staring at it . She will study whether the child’s appearance is more like the mother or the father, and study where the parent-child costumes are bought . How old the child can wear it . Anyway, what she used to find boring and meaningless now seems to  be very interesting and fun . Looking up at him, she said, "Look, this set of family wear is really nice, there is a hat, it’s fun . "

Su Yi Cheng stared at the photo carefully for a while, frowned and said, "Why is it a boy?" The tone sounded picky .

An Ran pinched his waist and said, "Why do you care if the child is a boy or a girl? I am asking you if this set of family wear is nice?"

Su Yi Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the photo for a while before saying, "No it's not, there isn't any for a girl, our baby is a girl, it must be a girl . If you really want to buy a family wear, then you must buy one with girl's clothes . " 

An Ran was really defeated by his insistence . She patted him and laughed, said, "You think your eyes have X-ray or ultrasonic abilities? You say it as if you can really see it . "

Su Yi Cheng also laughed and smothered her more tightly, and said slowly and gently in her ear, "First buy the girl's clothes, then when we wear it  with the baby, it will look good . "

"What if it is a boy?" lying in his arms, An Ran just had to sing the opposite tone against him .

For her remarks, Su Yi Cheng frowned slightly and turned his head and looked at her for a while . Then he said calmly, "If it is a boy, he will also wear the girl's clothes!"

Because of his words, An Ran was almost choked by her own saliva, withdrawing from his arms, sat up and patted him, and protested, "Su Yi  Cheng, how can you be like this!"

Su Yi Cheng laughed, reached out and regained her back into his arms, her head against his shoulder, kissed her cheek and held her tightly, "An Ran . "

"En?" An Ran gently replied him, playing with his big hand playfully .

The big palm directly grabbed her little hand and was interlocked with her fingers . He said, "Let's have a daughter alright?"

"Su Yi Cheng!" She really was exasperated, turned her head and stared at him, asked, "Is this something I can decide!?"

Su Yi Cheng looked at her for a while, then smiled and looked at her eyes and said, "Must be a daughter!"

"You are crazy, you want a daughter so much you went crazy . " An Ran looked at him, shaking her head, he was too attached to having a daughter!

Su Yi Cheng held her in his arms, and printed a kiss, holding her face, gently, affectionately .

An Ran responded to his kiss and held him around her arms .

Turning around her lips and teeth, Su Yi Cheng got a bit emotional, and he held her more tightly, almost wanting to integrate her into him and make her a part of himself . Burying his face deep in her shoulders, all he is smelling was her smell, her sweet fragrance, he wants to continue, but his rational self tells him not to, because An Ran is pregnant, and the doctor says that the first three months are the most fragile period for the fetus .

Turning around her lips and teeth, Su Yi Cheng got a bit emotional, and he held her more tightly, almost wanting to integrate her into him and make her a part of himself . Burying his face deep in her shoulders, all he is smelling was her smell, her sweet fragrance, he wants to continue, but his rational self tells him not to, because An Ran is pregnant, and the doctor says that the first three months are the most fragile period for the fetus .

The two of them clung to each other tightly, and An Ran naturally felt the changes in his body and knew why he stopped . The hand tightened back to  hold him .

For a while, until the pa.s.sion slowly subsided, Su Yi Cheng lifted his head from her shoulder, but did not let her loose, his hand slowly lowered,  covering her still flat belly at the moment . Only softly said in An Ran’s  ear, "Definitely a daughter! . . . "

For his persistence and determination, An Ran has no idea what to say anymore, but whether the child is a son or a daughter, she knows that he will definitely love them .

Just when the two of them were quietly embracing each other, the cell phone on Su Yi Cheng's side on the bedside table rang at this time, and the gentle music broke the calm, and it became a bit awkward in such a s.p.a.ce and atmosphere .  

Su Yi Cheng did not immediately turn around and pick up the mobile phone on  the bedside table, but still hold her tightly for a while, An Ran then patted him on the shoulder and reminded him, "The call, first answer the  phone . " 

Su Yi Cheng then let her go, and he took the phone and picked it up .   "h.e.l.lo . "

The call was from the military compound . After the phone rang for a long time, and finally was picked up, Qin Yun was not annoyed or angry on the phone . Instead, she asked a little embarra.s.sed, "Son, you took such a long time to answer the phone, have I disturbed you at a bad time?!”

Su Yi Cheng smiled and looked at An Ran . He said directly, "You did disturbed us . " Disturbed him hugging An Ran, disturbing him from reaching out and say h.e.l.lo to the baby in the womb of An Ran, telling her that he is her father* .

"Ah, would you like me to hang up first?" Qin Yun asked, and she was  serious, and her tone was sincere .

"Alright, Mom, what happen for you to call this late?" Don't tell me she just got bored and called to chit chat!

It's ok had he not mentioned it but once he spoke up, Qin Yun is somewhat unhappy, said in a little dissatisfied tone, "Did you forget what day tomorrow  is?"

Hearing this, Su Yi Cheng frowned, and quickly remembered what the date of  tomorrow is in his head, and what important day it is, July 24, he remembered that tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday . Grandpa does not like extravagance or it being too noisy, but the basic requirement for his birthday every  year is for the family to have a good meal together . There does not need to have special delicacies or even a cake, he is content to just have a simple  home-cooked meal with everyone .

"Haven't remember it yet?" Qin Yun said on the phone, and the tone was one that is enjoying while he is suffering .

"I remember now, I will bring An Ran back tomorrow . " Su Yi Cheng faintly answered, turned to look at the hand that is still interlocked with An Ran's . This period has been busy with the Ke Ji City project, and the past few days with An Ran’s incident, too many things were huddled together,  letting him neglect that tomorrow is Grandpa’s birthday .

"Tomorrow is the weekend, you and An Ran have no work, you two remember to come back soon, Grandpa did not say it, but he still misses you in his heart, but seriously, it's been a long time since you last come home to visit, there is also that Yi Jiao, each of you are not willing to come home . " Qin Yun was mumbling dissatisfied, but all in all it's because she misses them .

"I know . " Su Yi Cheng responded, knowing it's his fault, said, "I will go back with An Ran tomorrow morning, remember to cook our meals for lunch . "

Hearing that they will come back for lunch at noon, Qin Yun naturally nodded happily . She even said that she will go to the market to buy food with auntie early in the morning, to give more nourishment to An Ran, and after a few words of concern, mainly to let him drive safely tomorrow morning, she hung up .  

Hanging up the phone, An Ran looked at him and asked, "What day is it tomorrow?" Qin Yun’s voice is a bit loud, even though there is a little distance, An Ran can still hear her clearly .

"Tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday . According to what we do yearly, every year, our whole family will sit together to have a meal as a celebration for grandpa . " Su Yi Cheng explained .

"Tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday . According to what we do yearly, every year, our whole family will sit together to have a meal as a celebration for grandpa . " Su Yi Cheng explained .

"Ah, why didn't you say that earlier, we have not prepared our gifts!" An  Ran whispered, inwardly calculating if there's enough time to go to the mall early in the morning to buy a ready-made gift for Grandpa .

Su Yi Cheng squeezed her nose with a funny smile and said, "No worries, we have already prepared the gift, Grandpa will love it very much for sure . "

"What is it?" An Ran curiously asked, if she had not heard mistakenly, it seems that a certain someone is so busy that he had simply forgotten what day tomorrow is, could it be possible that the gift was prepared even before  then?

Su Yi Cheng laughed but did not answer, eyes staring straight at her belly,  the meaning in the eyes is obvious, their gifts are nothing else, but is in the belly of An Ran, the little great-grandson!

An Ran followed his gaze and looked down at her stomach, and rolled her eyes at him . She reached out and gently covered her stomach, but her lips  was quietly smiling .

The next day, with An Ran's insistence, before they drove back to the military compound, they went to a health care product store to buy some health products suitable for grandpa to eat .

When the two were settling the bill, An Ran’s mobile phone rang . It was a  local mobile phone number . She only felt that the last few numbers was  familiar, but it did not display the name of the caller . An Ran gently rubbed her eyebrows, but still picked up the phone . "h.e.l.lo?"

"Sister Gu . "

There was a female voice on the other side of the line . It was Chen Cheng’s voice . In fact, they had never met again after that time in the cafe .   Although An Ran knew that she was forced to steal the blueprints, and she was in a really difficult circ.u.mstance at the time, but she can't fully forgive her for such behavior . She gave only a faint reply, "Well, is there  something?"

“Sister Gu, the project result for the ‘Activity Manor’ came out . ” Chen Cheng said, the tone was a bit heavy .

Calculating the time, the result of the bidding should really be out during this time, but what surprised An Ran was that Chen Cheng was still paying  attention to the project, even she had almost forgot the incident already .   She did not expect her to pay so much attention to it .

"Oh, is it?" An Ran replied plainly, and there was no undulations in her tone . It seemed to be something that had nothing to do with her . No need to waste her thoughts on it again, or spend anymore of her emotions on it .

An Ran's calm made Chen Cheng a little surprised . She asked, "Sister Gu, don't you care which company won the bid?" She thought she would at least ask which company won the bid, how their design drawings are, and which  part of the winner's design is better than theirs . In fact, about partic.i.p.ating in this kind of compet.i.tion, it is more important to know how  the designs are better .

An Ran glanced at Su Yi Cheng, pointing to the phone and pointing to the outside, meaning that she would go out and wait for him .

Su Yi Cheng looked at her and nodded .

As An Ran walked toward the door of the store she said on the mobile phone,  "These has nothing to do with me . No matter who wins the bid, it is the matter of others . I will not specifically congratulate him on his win . so why the need to know? What difference does it make?"

"Is that so?" Chen Cheng was a little silent . After a while, she said a little faintly . "I heard that you also resigned . " When she was at the  company, she had a good relations.h.i.+p with the receptionist at the front desk . Even now, the two remain in contact, the news of her departure was  also told by her .

"En, I left . " An Ran reply faintly, looking at the cars and crowds coming and going on the street, today's weather is good, the sun is hanging high in the sky, the golden sun-ray shrouds the entire river, the sky is very blue, just that the clouds are scarce .

Hearing this, Chen Cheng is ashamed, "I'm sorry, if not for me -"

Hearing this, Chen Cheng is ashamed, "I'm sorry, if not for me -"

Without waiting for her to finish, An Ran directly interrupted her and  said, "Even if not you, there will be others . I'm the one they are  targeting, there's nothing else . "

If she guess correctly, behind Huang Dexing are the Ling’s sisters who plotted the whole thing . Sometimes, power and authority are really not a  good thing . Before she got married to Su Yi Cheng, she was somewhat  suppressed in the company . But she was still able to live somewhat on her own terms, now, just for the Ke Ji City project, look at how much troubles have been created . The way Huang Dexing change his mind on some of the  projects is also another kind of pressure . However, inversely, power and  authority can also be a really good thing, if Su Yi Cheng is not in his current position, it may not be so easy to just resign and leave the  company .

Chen Cheng was silent . Even after a while she did not speak . She still  feels guilty within her heart . She still felt very ashamed with regards to  An Ran .

Turning around and seeing the clerk in the store handing the health care product in the paper bag to Su Yi Cheng, An Ran was unwilling to say anything more with Chen Cheng . She said only faintly, "Well, if there is nothing else, then I will hang up first . ”

"Wait . " Hearing that she is about to hang up, Chen Cheng called out .

Brows frowning, An Ran asked, "Is there something else?" She did not think she had anything else to say to her .

"Although you don't want to know who won the bid for the 'Activity Manor'  project, I think I still need to let you know, so you can take precautions against them . " Chen Cheng stated .

Hearing this, An Ran's brow wrinkled more tightly, and did not understand what she meant in her words . "I don't quite understand what you mean by this . "

“The winner this time is ‘Fei Fan* Architecture,’” Chen Cheng said .

“‘Fei Fan Architecture’?” An Ran whispered, always feeling that the name was familiar, but she couldn’t remember what the company was about .

"With regards to "Fei Fan" winning the bid, it seems that everyone is very surprised, because in just two or three months, this company that was on the verge of bankruptcy has risen rapidly . In the past two months, it has already won several large projects in China . And now has even won such an international level heavyweight project, it is really amazing . " Chen Cheng said .

"Maybe they are really capable . " An Ran faintly replied, she did not care about other people's affairs, whether it is strength or dependence on relations, it all have nothing to do with her .

"No . " Chen Cheng negated her statement and said, "I have seen the design of  their winning bid, you will not believe it, but the winning design they used this time actually has more than 80% similarity to the ones we drawn . The design is similar, the lighting and the design of the ceiling, even the data and the proportions ratios are exactly the same, this is just incredible, do you think there could be such a coincidence?" There can be no such coincidence, this is simply plagiarism, She is sure that they have definitely seen their previous design drawings, otherwise it is impossible to draw such works with similar designs!

"What did you say?" 80% similarity, if this is not outright copying what else could it be! 

As if suddenly thought of something, Chen Cheng on the other side of the line asked, "Is Sister Gu and Mo Fei acquainted?"

Hearing the words, An Ran opened her eyes wide and couldn’t believe it .   "Who did you say it was?!"

"Mo Fei, he’s the designer of this ‘Fei Fan’ winning bid . This time, the work is supposedly from his hand . He seems to be the chief architect and CEO of ‘Fei Fan’ . . . ”

Whatever Chen Cheng said on the other side of the line afterwards fell on deaf ears . At this moment, An Ran's head was in a blank . Ahhh, now she remembered why the name 'Fei Fan' was so familiar . Isn't that Mo Fei's company, but she hadn’t thought that the one who stole her drawings would be Mo Fei, this is something she had never dreamed of!

116 Who stole the drawings After the family had dinner, Lin Xiaofen took An Ran in the living room, telling her about things to take note of during pregnancy, like avoiding cold and raw foodstuffs, no lifting of heavy objects, avoid looking up past the angle of your forehead, so on and so forth . While Su Yi Cheng remains with Dad, having tea in the study room playing chess and chatting . Gu Hengwen s mouth was raised the entire night, and he was in a good mood .

Alright, Mom, what happen for you to call this late Don 39 t tell me she just got bored and called to chit chat It 39 s ok had he not mentioned it but once he spoke up, Qin Yun is somewhat unhappy, said in a little dissatisfied tone, Did you forget what day tomorrow is Hearing this, Su Yi Cheng frowned, and quickly remembered what the date of tomorrow is in his head, and what important day it is, July 24, he remembered that tomorrow is Grandpa 39 s birthday . Grandpa does not like extravagance or it being too noisy, but the basic requirement for his birthday every year is for the family to have a good meal together . There does not need to have special delicacies or even a cake, he is content to just have a simple home cooked meal with everyone . Haven 39 t remember it yet Qin Yun said on the phone, and the tone was one that is enjoying while he is suffering . I remember now, I will bring An Ran back tomorrow . Su Yi Cheng faintly answered, turned to look at the hand that is still interlocked with An Ran 39 s . This period has been busy with the Ke Ji City project, and the past few days with An Ran s incident, too many things were huddled together, letting him neglect that tomorrow is Grandpa s birthday . Tomorrow is the weekend, you and An Ran have no work, you two remember to come back soon, Grandpa did not say it, but he still misses you in his heart, but seriously, it 39 s been a long time since you last come home to visit, there is also that Yi Jiao, each of you are not willing to come home . Qin Yun was mumbling dissatisfied, but all in all it 39 s because she misses them . I know . Su Yi Cheng responded, knowing it 39 s his fault, said, I will go back with An Ran tomorrow morning, remember to cook our meals for lunch . Hearing that they will come back for lunch at noon, Qin Yun naturally nodded happily . She even said that she will go to the market to buy food with auntie early in the morning, to give more nourishment to An Ran, and after a few words of concern, mainly to let him drive safely tomorrow morning, she hung up . Hanging up the phone, An Ran looked at him and asked, What day is it tomorrow Qin Yun s voice is a bit loud, even though there is a little distance, An Ran can still hear her clearly . Tomorrow is Grandpa 39 s birthday . According to what we do yearly, every year, our whole family will sit together to have a meal as a celebration for grandpa . Su Yi Cheng explained . Ah, why didn 39 t you say that earlier, we have not prepared our gifts An Ran whispered, inwardly calculating if there 39 s enough time to go to the mall early in the morning to buy a ready made gift for Grandpa . Su Yi Cheng squeezed her nose with a funny smile and said, No worries, we have already prepared the gift, Grandpa will love it very much for sure . What is it An Ran curiously asked, if she had not heard mistakenly, it seems that a certain someone is so busy that he had simply forgotten what day tomorrow is, could it be possible that the gift was prepared even before then Su Yi Cheng laughed but did not answer, eyes staring straight at her belly, the meaning in the eyes is obvious, their gifts are nothing else, but is in the belly of An Ran, the little great grandson An Ran followed his gaze and looked down at her stomach, and rolled her eyes at him . She reached out and gently covered her stomach, but her lips was quietly smiling . The next day, with An Ran 39 s insistence, before they drove back to the military compound, they went to a health care product store to buy some health products suitable for grandpa to eat . When the two were settling the bill, An Ran s mobile phone rang . It was a local mobile phone number . She only felt that the last few numbers was familiar, but it did not display the name of the caller . An Ran gently rubbed her eyebrows, but still picked up the phone . h.e.l.lo Sister Gu . There was a female voice on the other side of the line . It was Chen Cheng s voice . In fact, they had never met again after that time in the cafe . Although An Ran knew that she was forced to steal the blueprints, and she was in a really difficult circ.u.mstance at the time, but she can 39 t fully forgive her for such behavior . She gave only a faint reply, Well, is there something Sister Gu, the project result for the Activity Manor came out . Chen Cheng said, the tone was a bit heavy . Calculating the time, the result of the bidding should really be out during this time, but what surprised An Ran was that Chen Cheng was still paying attention to the project, even she had almost forgot the incident already . She did not expect her to pay so much attention to it . Oh, is it An Ran replied plainly, and there was no undulations in her tone . It seemed to be something that had nothing to do with her . No need to waste her thoughts on it again, or spend anymore of her emotions on it . An Ran 39 s calm made Chen Cheng a little surprised . She asked, Sister Gu, don 39 t you care which company won the bid She thought she would at least ask which company won the bid, how their design drawings are, and which part of the winner 39 s design is better than theirs . In fact, about partic.i.p.ating in this kind of compet.i.tion, it is more important to know how the designs are better . An Ran glanced at Su Yi Cheng, pointing to the phone and pointing to the outside, meaning that she would go out and wait for him . Su Yi Cheng looked at her and nodded . As An Ran walked toward the door of the store she said on the mobile phone, These has nothing to do with me . No matter who wins the bid, it is the matter of others . I will not specifically congratulate him on his win . so why the need to know What difference does it make Is that so Chen Cheng was a little silent . After a while, she said a little faintly . I heard that you also resigned . When she was at the company, she had a good relations.h.i.+p with the receptionist at the front desk . Even now, the two remain in contact, the news of her departure was also told by her . En, I left . An Ran reply faintly, looking at the cars and crowds coming and going on the street, today 39 s weather is good, the sun is hanging high in the sky, the golden sun ray shrouds the entire river, the sky is very blue, just that the clouds are scarce . Hearing this, Chen Cheng is ashamed, I 39 m sorry, if not for me Without waiting for her to finish, An Ran directly interrupted her and said, Even if not you, there will be others . I 39 m the one they are targeting, there 39 s nothing else . If she guess correctly, behind Huang Dexing are the Ling s sisters who plotted the whole thing . Sometimes, power and authority are really not a good thing . Before she got married to Su Yi Cheng, she was somewhat suppressed in the company . But she was still able to live somewhat on her own terms, now, just for the Ke Ji City project, look at how much troubles have been created . The way Huang Dexing change his mind on some of the projects is also another kind of pressure . However, inversely, power and authority can also be a really good thing, if Su Yi Cheng is not in his current position, it may not be so easy to just resign and leave the company . Chen Cheng was silent . Even after a while she did not speak . She still feels guilty within her heart . She still felt very ashamed with regards to An Ran . Turning around and seeing the clerk in the store handing the health care product in the paper bag to Su Yi Cheng, An Ran was unwilling to say anything more with Chen Cheng . She said only faintly, Well, if there is nothing else, then I will hang up first . Wait . Hearing that she is about to hang up, Chen Cheng called out . Brows frowning, An Ran asked, Is there something else She did not think she had anything else to say to her . Although you don 39 t want to know who won the bid for the 39 Activity Manor 39 project, I think I still need to let you know, so you can take precautions against them . Chen Cheng stated . Hearing this, An Ran 39 s brow wrinkled more tightly, and did not understand what she meant in her words . I don 39 t quite understand what you mean by this . The winner this time is Fei Fan Architecture, Chen Cheng said . Fei Fan Architecture An Ran whispered, always feeling that the name was familiar, but she couldn t remember what the company was about . With regards to Fei Fan winning the bid, it seems that everyone is very surprised, because in just two or three months, this company that was on the verge of bankruptcy has risen rapidly . In the past two months, it has already won several large projects in China . And now has even won such an international level heavyweight project, it is really amazing . Chen Cheng said . Maybe they are really capable . An Ran faintly replied, she did not care about other people 39 s affairs, whether it is strength or dependence on relations, it all have nothing to do with her . No . Chen Cheng negated her statement and said, I have seen the design of their winning bid, you will not believe it, but the winning design they used this time actually has more than 80 similarity to the ones we drawn . The design is similar, the lighting and the design of the ceiling, even the data and the proportions ratios are exactly the same, this is just incredible, do you think there could be such a coincidence There can be no such coincidence, this is simply plagiarism, She is sure that they have definitely seen their previous design drawings, otherwise it is impossible to draw such works with similar designs What did you say 80 similarity, if this is not outright copying what else could it be As if suddenly thought of something, Chen Cheng on the other side of the line asked, Is Sister Gu and Mo Fei acquainted Hearing the words, An Ran opened her eyes wide and couldn t believe it . Who did you say it was Mo Fei, he s the designer of this Fei Fan winning bid . This time, the work is supposedly from his hand . He seems to be the chief architect and CEO of Fei Fan . . . Whatever Chen Cheng said on the other side of the line afterwards fell on deaf ears . At this moment, An Ran 39 s head was in a blank . Ahhh, now she remembered why the name 39 Fei Fan 39 was so familiar . Isn 39 t that Mo Fei 39 s company, but she hadn t thought that the one who stole her drawings would be Mo Fei, this is something she had never dreamed of
