Chapter 530: 316 Son-in-law Xiaojiang falls off the horse!_2
He truly was the fashion guru known as the "Old Buddha."
The bodyguards looked tall and fearsome, their expressions fierce, but Xu He still plucked up the courage to approach.
"Mr. Borden, hello! I’m from China Paris. This year, Paris has several outstanding design drafts I’d like you to see..."
Every day, people clutching design drafts desperately hoped that Borden would notice them and shoot to fame. Borden wouldn’t even bother to look.
However, Xu He spoke French so beautifully that Borden actually turned to look at her, but his words were as harsh as ever, "So you’re from China? So what? What about Paris? With so many branches worldwide, why should I look at your designs? Moreover, Paris’s prime has long passed. The designs in recent years have been mediocre. Perhaps consumers without appreciation might still buy them, but they certainly don’t deserve my time. It’s a waste."
Many had said he was brutally frank, and Xu He now fully experienced it.
But she was no ordinary person. Facing such public ridicule from a significant figure, she didn’t feel embarrassed but seized every moment to explain her request and handed over her design drafts.
Borden quickly lost patience. Apparently, some pampered wealthy lady wanted to play house at his place, signaling a bodyguard with a glance.
Following the command, the bodyguard blocked Xu He’s view and pushed her around without any pity or gentleness.
Xu He might have regained her health over the year, but she definitely couldn’t withstand the bodyguard’s rough actions.
During the pushing, her design drafts all scattered on the ground. Xu He cherished these designs, and as she bent to pick them up, the bodyguard pushed her again. The lady, gentle as water, lost her composure and was about to fall when someone gentlemanly supported her from behind through the cashmere coat.
Turning to say thank you, she choked on her first word.
Xiaojiang??
Perhaps it was the feeling of encountering an old friend in a foreign land; she didn’t feel like calling him "President Jiang" at that moment.
But how could Jiang Xuan be here?
As an Executive Director and President of Jiang Group, it made sense for him to travel abroad, but one would expect him to be at club-like places, not in Borden’s studio...
They say the heavens are merciful, and the gods are generous, but as Heavenly Dao, Jiang Xuan had a face that didn’t fit these descriptive words at all.
His eyes were profound, often exuding a chilling aura. This hostility, manifesting in his body, made his features seem even more severe.
Especially now, seeing someone Xia Ye cared about being treated this way, his terrifying presence became even more apparent.
He pulled Xu He behind him, one hand in his pocket, and with the other, picked up the scattered designs from the floor.
Seeing this, Xu He felt deeply apologetic. These valuable design drafts that Jiang Xuan had helped her to secure were now trampled underfoot.
"Sorry, Xiaojiang, this is because..."
She found calling him Xiaojiang rather natural, which even surprised her.
But when she heard what Jiang Xuan said next, she was truly shocked and speechless—
Unlike his arrogance toward Xu He, Borden’s demeanor completely changed upon seeing Jiang Xuan. His expression was jubilant, like seeing an old friend he hadn’t seen for many years.
He quickly moved the bodyguard aside to greet him, but then, Jiang Xuan said slowly, "Unfortunately, it sounds like you, Mr. Borden, don’t like my designs..."
His words were light, seemingly weightless, but they stunned both Xu He and Borden, leaving them unable to react for a long time.
He said those were his designs...
Xu He glanced at the design drafts, then quickly back at Jiang Xuan, her normally calm eyes showing rare astonishment.
But that wasn’t what shocked her the most, it was Borden’s reaction.
Speaking fluent French, he asked, "J, you’re saying these clothes were designed by you? Aren’t you just a logo designer? Since when did you start designing clothes? And women’s clothing at that??"
Xu He hadn’t yet digested the previous information, and here came another thunderbolt.
Her French was fluent enough to immediately grasp the literal meaning of Borden’s words.
What remained was to piece together these literal meanings in her mind.
J...
Logo designer...
Xu He had already felt that the style of these clothes was similar to that of Designer J...
Jiang Xuan was actually J, the internationally renowned Designer J...
Her boyfriend from Tiangao... was a stylist with exquisite taste!?

Ten minutes later, Borden canceled all his following appointments and invited Jiang Xuan and Xu He into his spacious office at the top floor.
