  He Jun Cheng walked over to Ye Mu Fan, lowered his voice and said in a regretful tone, "Ay, why did you choose this path, eh? Before, I was so kind to invite you over to work for us, but too bad, you don't know what's good for you……"

  He Jun Cheng paused and his eyes were filled with delight. "Now, even if you wanted to beg me, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy anymore……"

  Ye Mu Fan wasn't in a rush to leave, so he raised his brows slightly. "Beg you?"

  He Jun Cheng recalled being tied up at the graveyard by Ye Mu Fan and his face turned gloomy. "If you kneel down and kowtow to me thrice in front of everybody, I might consider giving you another chance……"

  Ye Mu Fan was about to speak when his phone started ringing. It was a call from Ye Wanwan.

  Ye Mu Fan took one look at it and immediately felt guilty. He wasn't in the mood to bicker anymore, so he jogged to a corner where there was no one around and answered the call……

  Everyone saw how anxious Ye Mu Fan was and immediately started mocking him. "Since this person has been fired by Assembly of Stars, what on earth is he doing here?"

  "Look at him behaving like a thief - he must've snuck in! This great young master isn't good at anything but is an expert in engaging in all sorts of illicit trading!"

  "Where's security? Are they doing their job or not?"

  He Jun Cheng pretended to be generous and patted the other party's shoulders. "Forget it, forget it, we were all colleagues once."

  "Head stylist He, how could you speak up for someone like him!"

  Everybody saw that He Jun Cheng was trying to ease the tension. With the ceremony starting soon, everyone was busy with preparations and simply let this pass.

  Arguing with garbage like him is simply a waste of time……

  On stage, the host spoke with enthusiasm——


  "Good evening distinguished guests. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming. The 13th annual Grand Fashion Ceremony shall officially begin……

  In accordance with past practices, other than networking with people in the industry, the highlight of the ceremony was having various renowned stylists showcasing the work they were most pleased with to date.

  In the audience, Shen Meng Qi glanced at He Jun Cheng who was seated next to her. "Ye Mu Fan showed up tonight. Is he looking for trouble with us, huh?"

  After all, He Jun Cheng was using Ye Mu Fan's design as the work he was going to showcase, so would Ye Mu Fan let that slide?

  When He Jun Cheng heard her, he was completely fearless and sniggered. "Him? Meng Qi, you think too highly of that garbage. Let's not talk about him; if he really was that dumb to seek that road to death, this is the perfect occasion to make trouble for us - I'll make sure he won't be able to continue working in this industry!"

  Shen Meng Qi also thought she was worrying too much. She simply shrugged and didn't speak anymore. "I'll go backstage to prepare."

  "Go on baby - you'll definitely be the prettiest tonight!"……

  The music started playing and on stage, famous works of various stylists that allowed them to reach the pinnacle of their careers appeared one after another; the models were all showcasing their beauty, displaying the magnificent view of a hundred flowers blooming in the fashion world.

  In the middle seat at the front row, the chairperson of the Fashion Association was seated. On his right was director Zheng while his left side was empty.

  At this moment, Mu Wen Qing, who was over 50 years old and dressed in a formal suit, was focused on looking at everyone's masterpieces. After seeing Shen Meng Qi's appearance on stage, his eyes had an obvious hint of astonishment. "Not bad!"

  Director Zheng chimed in quickly, "Yes, not bad! Chairperson Mu, do you find that He Jun Cheng's style seems quite similar to our vice-chairperson's in some ways, huh?"

  Mu Wen Qing shook his head. "Compared to Mu Fan, there's still a big difference……"

  Director Zheng knew how much this chairperson admired the newly-appointed vice-chairperson and quickly said, "Of course! They have similar styles, but He Jun Cheng's work seems much more amateur!"

  Mu Wen Qing turned to the empty seat next to him. "Where's Mu Fan? Why isn't he here yet?"

  "He got into an accident on the way and he's dealing with it now. He'll be here later!"

  "What? An accident?" Mu Wen Qing knitted his brows.

  Director Zheng hurriedly explained, "Chairperson, don't panic. He's alright but his car was slightly damaged. I'll go to the entrance to meet him right away!"……

  Director Zheng's temporary departure didn't cause any commotion.

  The second Shen Meng Qi appeared on stage, compliments could be heard everywhere and the audience started clapping.

  "Truly, this is the best work of head stylist He. It's really amazing!"

  "This creativity, this idea - no ordinary person could come up with it!"

  "Even chairperson Mu nodded in approval just now!"

  He Jun Cheng basked in all this inflated praise giddily. "All of you are flattering me; it's just a minor achievement not worth mentioning!"

  Right at this moment……

  Amidst the praise, there was a sudden voice——


  "Tsk, since when did the standards of the Fashion Association drop so low? Even this shameless person's stolen work could be openly displayed on stage and receive the admiration of everyone?"

  The man's voice was a little cynical and full of sarcasm.

  As this questioning voice was so sudden, everyone went silent for a second.

  He Jun Cheng's gleeful expression froze on his face. His expression darkened as he turned to the side——


  He saw Ye Mu Fan standing there with his hair still a mess and his clothes crumpled. Ye Mu Fan curled his lips and stood there calmly.

  YE MU FAN!

  He actually dared to mess with us!

  Good, very good……

  He Jun Cheng didn't have to speak up at all - someone else already started yelling on his behalf: "Where did this wretched-looking beggar come from eh? How dare he bring down the reputation of the Fashion Association and even accuse our stylist of being a thief!"

  Not many had seen Felix's face and looking at Ye Mu Fan's sloven appearance, nobody respected him obviously.

  "Who is this guy? Why does he look so familiar?"

  "Don't you know? He's the great young master of Ye Group, crown prince of Emperor Sky Entertainment - Ye Mu Fan!"

  "Damn! That ignorant bum? What's he doing here?"

  "I heard he used to do odd jobs for He Jun Cheng and was fired - he probably has a grudge so he's here to cause trouble!"

  "This is ridiculous!"

  When everyone was almost done insulting Ye Mu Fan, He Jun Cheng stood up and said casually, "Young master Ye, you were chased out of your house and was living on the streets before, so our big missy pitied you and decided to take you in, allowing you to work for me."

  "But since you didn't have any talents and refused to work properly, I had no choice but to let you go. After all, the company needs to make profits and we can't afford to pay idlers."

  "Who knew that not only were you unremorseful, but you even came here to insult me, ay……"

  He Jun Cheng pretended to be heartbroken while Ye Mu Fan remained silent. He simply stood there and watch his act. "Oh? I have no talents? Then who has talents, huh? Is it you, great stylist He? The person who only knows how to copy someone else's work?"

  He Jun Cheng was waiting for him to say this and sniggered, "Young master Ye, you accuse me of stealing someone else's work? Why don't you tell us whose work I've stolen?"
