Su Xiao, an interior designer, is forced to work overtime by her cheapskate boss to revise a project. To meet the deadline, she secretly adds her half-year-old eco-friendly bamboo weaving design—after all, even “dealing with it” needs a bottom line. Unexpectedly, the client is an overseas lifestyle blogger who posts the finished photos on Instagram. The “Chinese rural style + sustainable design” case goes viral overnight, attracting Italian furniture brands. The boss immediately tries to take credit, but Su Xiao fights back with her drafts and chat records: “You only told me to meet the deadline, not to give up my trump card.” She had a backup plan all along. Finally, she uses this buzz to start her own studio, turning her “little selfishness in rushing work” into the start of her career.
