Chapter 13: The Shy Man
She is grateful for the kindness of her teacher, and she is also grateful for the cultivation and care of the group over the years, but if she is restrained by this, then she will soon be able to foresee her fate.
She is definitely not the kind of person who can work calmly under constraints, and her level will always be limited to this space and the like, and she can't help but not improve, but will get worse and worse, until she no longer deserves the title of designer on her head.
"Since Miss Chi has such a tough attitude, then we can only do business, we will discuss it again internally, you go to work." Seeing that she couldn't control her at all, the female senior could only wave her hand to let her leave.
Coming out of the office, Chi Ruoyu found that her back was already soaked, she didn't want her to leave with the means of the law, she couldn't give up on this place that had made her.
It turns out that things are really not as simple as imagined, but next, what should she do to let the group let her leave with peace of mind?
The news of Chi Ruoyu's departure quickly spread in the group, and the people in the studio were the last to know.
"Rain, why should you leave?" George is very puzzled by Chi Ruoyu's behavior, and the achievements she has now may not be achieved by others who have struggled for a lifetime.
George is the candidate to succeed Yule as the chief designer, and he has always felt that he is not as good as Chi Ruoyu, and the only thing that can be compared is his age.
"If I said I wanted to start all over again, would you laugh at me?" Chi Ruoyu sat in front of George's desk, holding her chin with her hands, and looked at him with a bright smile.
How much like a child, but for others, the graceful years have already experienced setbacks in her place.
"I know you're the most thoughtful kid, so how could you laugh at you? It's just that I don't know, you already have a reputation and status, isn't that enough? β
"There's one thing I haven't told anyone, but George, I want to sue you, can you keep it a secret for me?" Chi Ruoyu gradually restrained her smile and looked at him with a stern expression.
Could there be something else going on? George's heart jumped, and he became serious. "What's the matter?"
After thinking for a while, Chi Ruoyu spoke: "Actually, the reason why I asked to leave was because I found that I seemed to have reached a bottleneck. β
George was stunned for a moment, the bottleneck period is a nightmare for designers!
It's a very competitive industry, and you're in a position that many people covet, and once you know that you can't make a breakthrough in your own abilities, then you're really done!
But for a twenty-year-old girl, it's too early to hit a bottleneck, right?
Thinking about Chi Ruoyu's formal contact with the industry since he was eight years old, George is relieved, he can't look at this problem from age.
"How so? Too much pressure? George looked at her with pity, he could be said to have grown up watching Chi Ruoyu, and like Yule, he knew her character very well.
How could such a smart girl suddenly encounter such a thing.
Chi Ruoyu shook her head blankly, looking a little depressed. "No one has ever been forced to do this, I've been fighting willingly, I don't know what's going on, my mind has been so empty lately, I can't think of anything, this feeling makes me very scared, so I want to change my environment."
Maybe her age and experience can't support her talent, right? Inspired by life, this girl has experienced too few other lives besides work.
"Don't be too pessimistic, it's something that happens to almost every designer, just sooner or later. I hope you can relax, go out for a walk, walk around, broaden your horizons, maybe you will have a greater harvest. β
George still doesn't want Chi Ruoyu to leave like this, he feels that Chi Ruoyu has unlimited potential and will definitely become a milestone figure in the fashion industry, and he must not be buried here.
Only people who are really close to her would say such things from her point of view, and Chi Ruoyu was moved in her heart.
"Actually, I really want to call you in Chinese, our relationship, if explained in Chinese, I should call you, Master Brother." The last three words, Chi Ruoyu read out in Chinese.
"Big, West, Red?" George tried to read it again, but as soon as he read it, he already felt that something was wrong, and quickly changed his words. "Big, West, boom?"
Anyway, the tone was right, Chi Ruoyu couldn't help but smile and corrected his pronunciation word by word, which made George pronounce those three words correctly. "Big, master, brother!"
Although he read it very slowly, but he read it to the standard, Chi Ruoyu finally laughed. "In the future, I will call you Senior Brother, don't you refuse."
I don't know what these three strange words mean, but they should be words for intimacy, right? Chinese is a wonderful language. So George gladly agreed.
"You don't seem to have been to a bar before, so why don't we go to a bar at night?" Bring everyone along. Georgia said.
I didn't go before because I was young, and people didn't let her in at all, and then she was completely obsessed with work, and she didn't think about this kind of pleasure at all, but now it seems that she may have overdrawn her potential early.
There's nothing wrong with going out and relaxing at such a stressful time. "Do you want to call the teacher?"
The teacher is already old, and I don't know if he can handle a noisy place like a bar.
"He's not going, it's okay, I'll talk to him, and then call the others, and we'll go out and relax together."
Recently, most people are busy with new product launches, and their spirits have been in a depressed state, so go out and relax at this time, just to release the pressure, and then you can better devote yourself to work.
"Miss Chi." As soon as Chi Ruoyu came out of George's office, he was stopped by a person.
Chi Ruoyu knew him, this is a designer who has only recently entered the studio, and I heard that he just won a competition. "Hello, what's the matter?"
This man didn't come long ago, and it happened that Chi Ruoyu returned to China during that time, so there was very little communication with him, limited to Cheng DΓΉ, who knew each other's names.
Hearing Chi Ruoyu's question, the man suddenly blushed. "I ...... I've always loved ...... Miss Chi's works, I want to have a good chat with you, but I always don't have the opportunity. β
Chi Ruoyu was stunned, is she now worshipped by a designer? It turns out that it's like to be adored by your peers! Chi Ruoyu's mood suddenly improved.
"Later, everyone will go to the bar to relax, although it is not a good place to talk about work, but it is still okay to chat."
"Bars? Everybody goes? It seems that he thought of something, and the man's face turned even redder, was he embarrassed? Seeing that he is much older than Chi Ruoyu, but he is even more innocent than Chi Ruoyu.
Chi Ruoyu felt that this person was really interesting and was very curious about him. "Of course, don't you want to go?"
"I didn't ...... No, I just, never been to an occasion like that. The man was even more embarrassed, and spoke very reservedly.
After so many years here, it's the first time I've seen such a reserved Westerner! "It's my first time going, so we can sit together."
The man raised his head and looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't expect Chi Ruoyu to be so easy to get close to.
The other designers in the studio are basically people who have a little status in the fashion industry, and people like him who have only raised their eyebrows from the competition are nothing after coming here, and everyone always looks at him with a taste of unfriendliness.
Just came to find Chi Ruoyu, and it was he who mustered up a lot of courage to dare to stop her, thinking that he would receive the same treatment, but he didn't expect Chi Ruoyu to be so easy to get along with.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken, Chi Ruoyu asked again, "What's wrong?" You don't like that place? That's okay, you don't have to go. β
The man waved his hand again and again, "No, no, no, I'm very willing to go, then...... Let's have a good chat then. β
Chi Ruoyu made an OK gesture, the man smiled shyly, and then quickly left here.
It's really interesting that this man is even shyer than her little girl.
As soon as night fell, George led everyone out of the studio and went to one of the most famous pubs in Milan.
In Italy, there are many nightlife venues such as bars, and the elimination rate is also very high, but this pub has been able to survive for so many years, which shows how strong the forces behind it are.
As soon as you enter the door, you will hear enthusiastic disco music, which makes you feel like you want to go crazy on the dance floor.
It turned out that Chi Ruoyu was not the only one who had such an idea, she just thought about it, and several people in the same company had already put Jiangxi ideas into action, and quickly put them on the dance floor and danced with the people around them.
"Are you going to dance?" Chi Ruoyu glanced at the man beside him and asked loudly.
The man shook his head in horror, and when he saw Chi Ruoyu's eager expression, he replied, "I'll just sit over there, you can go play, it must be fun." β
Chi Ruoyu wanted to take him along, but he was not familiar with him, and it would be bad if he was angry. "It's funny, don't you really try?"
"No need, I'll just wait for you over there." Anyway, he's not the only one who doesn't dance, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about.
Seeing his resolute attitude, Chi Ruoyu no longer asked for it, turned around and joined everyone, learning to move his waist slowly, and after a while, he had already obtained the essentials and happily interacted with the people around him.
