Seeing the message on her phone, Xu Wen finally relaxed.

Without hesitation, she transferred 200,000 yuan to Meng Xia. She knew that this foster daughter of the Song Family was always short of money, and Meng Xia only sent the design files after receiving the payment.

The moment Xu Wen got the design files, she could barely contain her excitement. This was her first step towards exacting revenge on Song Fan.

To avoid another mishap like before, Song Yi issued an order that all departments should cooperate with Song Fan, barring any involvement in jewelry design and production. It seemed he and Meng Yu had reached some agreement, as the ring incident was no longer mentioned. Meng Xia was transferred to a role in promotional support, clearly to keep her out of Song Fan’s way.

Without further obstacles, Song Fan’s work progressed smoothly. With the Gu Corporation backing her, funds and raw materials were quickly secured. Charlie went all out in promoting the brand, and even without any products yet, the Lingdong Jewelry brand was already gaining international attention.

Song Fan had traveled to the capital to continue her promotional work.

Upon arriving at the mall, she was surprised to find that the store location given by Mrs. Xu was right by the main entrance, one of the prime spots, and the space was large with the interior design already standardized.

Lan Yue walked around with a device, then nodded at Song Fan, indicating no surveillance or listening devices were present.

Song Fan nodded slightly and began organizing the tasks. The store’s decoration was almost complete; only a few finishing touches and arrangements were needed.

However, as everything was progressing smoothly, an unexpected group arrived.

Xu Wen entered the store, surrounded by an entourage.

The mall manager introduced her, “Miss Xu, this is the Lingdong Jewelry store, currently being set up.”

“Hmm, it looks alright, but aren’t the flowers a bit tacky?” Xu Wen said disdainfully. “The ground floor sets the tone for the mall; not just any brand can come in. The decoration shouldn’t be careless.”

The manager quickly agreed, “You’re right. We maintain uniform decoration standards, with each brand adding its own touches. It won’t affect the mall’s overall look.”

“Where’s the person in charge of Lingdong Jewelry? How come they’re not here to greet Miss Xu?” one of the rich girls with Xu Wen said snidely.

Wen Chao wasn’t having it and snapped back, “This store belongs to our boss. You’re not welcome here. Get out, get out!”

Li Wei then dragged over a few boxes and dropped them with a thud in front of them, glaring coldly.

“Is this how Lingdong Jewelry treats guests? No class at all. And they dream of becoming an international brand? What a joke!” another girl clinging to Xu Wen said.

One girl pulled Xu Wen aside, “Why did your mother let them open here? It ruins the mall’s atmosphere, lowering the quality.”

Others echoed the sentiment, and Xu Wen smirked, “Some people cling to higher-ups and forget about the Xu Family.”

“Yes, some people really don’t respect the Xu Family. Isn’t Miss Xu going to defend her family?” Song Fan had just walked over and heard their mocking comments.

“Don’t you know why Mrs. Xu gave me this store?” she said pointedly to Xu Wen. “Didn’t the incident with Miss Xu spread in the capital?”

The Xu family had spent a fortune to suppress the incident, but there’s no such thing as a completely watertight cover-up. Many knew the truth, but out of respect for the Xu Family, they didn’t bring it up.

Xu Wen gritted her teeth, “Song Fan, don’t push your luck. You’ve already benefited and still act coy!”

“Who’s benefited?” Song Fan circled Xu Wen, eyeing her up and down. “If Miss Xu didn’t have time for treatment, she wouldn’t be recovering now. There aren’t such good cosmetic surgeons in prison, right? Hmm, your eyes are bigger, and you got double eyelids?”

“Stop spreading lies!” Xu Wen snapped. She couldn’t let Song Fan continue; her past couldn’t be exposed again.

“I’m soon to be a manager at Song Corporation. These malls will be under my jurisdiction,” Xu Wen said, pointing at the workers installing lights. “No lights are allowed here. Follow the mall’s decoration rules. And no flowers, they’re too tacky, ruining the mall’s atmosphere!”
