Chapter 396: The big picture is important
Weber smiled calmly and made a gesture of please in passing: "Of course." ”
The under-eyes are more optimistic and detailed.
No matter what Bai Rouying's relationship with Lu Zhan was now, Weber felt in his heart that after this time, Lu Zhan should thank him fiercely.
When Bai Rouying went back, Lu Zhan was still staying in the villa of Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
He was cooking in the kitchen, wearing a colorful apron, bending over to wash vegetables, and his temperament was gentle, even if he was configuring a place like the kitchen, he had no sense of disobedience.
Bai Rouying walked in from afar, looking at the man's serious side face, her eyes suddenly became moist.
His five fingers are slender, and while washing the dishes, he looks cleaner under the impact of the water.
It's not a pair of hands doing housework.
The more Bai Rouying looked at him, the more her heart trembled, and a dull feeling of blockage continued to surge in her heart.
"Little Shadow?"
Lu Zhan turned his head after washing the dishes, and only saw it at this time, Bai Rouying, who was standing outside the living room at a distance from him, saw Bai Rouying stunned and looked at him in a daze, slightly stunned.
Bai Rouying almost subconsciously turned around and raised her hand to wipe it under her eyes.
Even with her back to herself, Lu Zhan still saw Bai Rouying's movements clearly, her heart suddenly sank, her voice tightened a little, and she walked almost quickly in front of Bai Rouying, and moved out of her shoulder without saying a word, making him turn around.
"What's wrong with you?" The man's voice was heavy, with a little imperceptible nervousness, "Xiaoying, what's wrong?" Who bullied you? ”
He thought that Bai Rouying left today to meet Weber, and the purpose was to talk to Weber about design cooperation.
Since he came back so early, could it be that things fell apart, or did Weber do something to embarrass Bai Rouying?
Lu Zhan's face sank almost instantly.
After coming to the United States, with his excellent professional skills, Lu Zhan almost became an upper-middle figure in American society, and he also had several dealings with Mr. Weber, and it can be said that because he trusted Weber, he would cooperate with Weber.
But now......
"I'm fine......"
Bai Rouying wiped her eyes hard, and the bottom of her eyes were a little red from her, she swung her head vigorously, and repeated again: "I'm fine." ”
Where does Lu Zhan believe Bai Rouying's words, Bai Rouying looks like she is fine.
His face became more and more gloomy, and he didn't care about hiding it from Bai Rouying at the moment, and said in a cold voice: "Don't lie to me, you don't look like there's anything wrong with this, is it a ghost story that has done something to you?" Or did he make some excessive requests, Xiaoying, don't you let me worry about what's going on? ”
Thinking that Bai Rouying might have any bad things because of her own mistakes, Lu Zhan's heart felt like she was constantly being pierced by thousands of knives.
He thought that coming to the United States would be able to make Bai Rouying's life better with his own strength, and he could firmly protect Bai Rouying in his safe haven, but this was not the case.
Just during the period of time he came to the United States, he could see that Bai Rouying was not happy.
Running around and toiling, always discouraged by the frustration of being rejected, it was only then that Lu Zhan realized that he couldn't do anything - he wanted to help Bai Rouying, but found that what he could do was too limited.
Maybe, maybe Jin Yu is right, he is not a suitable person for Bai Rouying in the first place.
Lu Zhan suddenly remembered that when Bai Rouying was hiding from Jin Yu before, Jin Yu found him and said those words to him, and there was a pain in his heart.
Rights may not be the most important thing, but if you don't have rights, then you really can't even protect the things you want to protect and the people you want to protect.
He was really useless.
"No, it's not." Bai Rouying shook her head heavily, and when she said this, her voice took on a crying tone again, and her eyes were red again.
She endured and endured, but after all, she still couldn't hold back, and threw herself into Lu Zhan's arms and hugged Lu Zhan's waist: "I'm just ......"
"Brother Lu Zhan......" Bai Rouying's voice sounded a little hoarse, and she tried to raise her head to look at Lu Zhan, "Why are you hiding it from me?" I already know that Mr. Weber is your friend, and in order for him to work with me, you have made other collaborations with him, right? Actually, you don't have to do so much for me......"
"I'm ......," her voice became more and more choked, and tears rolled down her eyes as she spoke, "I really don't deserve it." ”
It's not worth it for you to be so good to me, and it's not worth it for you to pay so much for me.
After listening to Bai Rouying's words, Lu Zhan was completely relieved.
At the same time, there is an indescribable blockage in my heart.
He shook his head slowly, raised his hand and patted the top of Bai Rouying's hair gently: "Don't think about it, these are all things I am willing to do." ”
"Brother Lu Zhan......"
"Alright." Lu Zhan held Bai Rouying's shoulders and asked her to stand up, "Don't worry, this matter has little impact on me, I just help you within the scope of my ability, I don't need to be burdened, and I don't need to feel any guilt." ”
At this time, he suddenly patted his head, his face showed a look of some annoyance, and he turned around almost a little embarrassed: "I forgot that the kitchen is still cooking, I have to hurry over, you go to the restaurant and sit first." ”
After speaking, he ran directly to the kitchen, completely avoiding Bai Rouying.
Bai Rouying stared at Lu Zhan's back for a long time, biting her lip tightly, and after being in class, she slowly closed her eyes.
"I must be able to ......" I must be able to completely forget about Jin Yu, and then love you wholeheartedly, and I will definitely not live up to Lu Zhan's deep love for her.
Absolutely not.
……
A week later, the opening ceremony of the preliminary round of the International Designer Contest was held.
Lu Zhan specially asked for leave from the company and accompanied Bai Rouying to participate.
Although she is no longer a newcomer in the designer world, in such a large-scale competition, Bai Rouying is definitely a very pure newcomer.
Except for the identity of being a close disciple of Keynes's mentor, Bai Rouying has almost no fame in the entire designer world.
After the competition began, Bai Rouying said goodbye to Lu Zhan and went backstage.
She had been clutching tightly in her hands, holding the document bag of her design artwork, because she was so nervous, her palms were already overflowing with sweat.
"Sister, is it the first time you've participated in this kind of competition?"
The No. 8 contestant, who is next to Bai Rouying's competition number, is also a designer from Huaxia.
She looked very confident and very familiar, and when she saw Bai Rouying's nervous look, she ran over to comfort Bai Rouying.
"I'll tell you, it's actually not a big deal to have a game like this, just put your mind to normal, you can't meet many masters in the preliminary round."
This is true, such as the International Designer Competition, although it is very well-known in the world, and there are many designer contestants who come to participate in such a designer competition, but it is indeed difficult to meet that kind of top-level master in the preliminary round.
After all, people who are really at a high level in the field of design, when they can participate in the annual calendar of the International Designer Competition, they have already made a certain reputation in the design world, and people like this do not need to participate in the preliminary competition.
They can directly enter the semi-finals through the introduction of the world's major famous teachers, and even some contestants can rely on their own strength to directly enter the finals through the awards they have won.
Bai Rouying, as the apprentice of Keynes's mentor, actually has the qualification to directly enter the semi-finals.
However, she wanted to have a deep understanding of the level gap between herself and these contestants in the international design competition, so she chose to participate one by one from the preliminary round.
Bai Rouying took a deep breath, turned her head to look at the contestant on the 8th, and her eyes paused on the name tag on her chest: "I'm much better, thank you." ”
The name of the No. 8 contestant is Song Wanyang, and his personality is as down-to-earth and generous as his name, and he seems to be very cultivated in his conversation, which makes people can't help but feel good.
Bai Rouying thanked her, made it to the makeup mirror, and prepared to fix her makeup again.
It was indeed a little hot in the dressing room, and because Bai Rouying was too nervous, there was a lot of sweat on her forehead at this time, and her makeup was a little smudged.
She was touching up her makeup with a brush, and Song Wanyang on the side came over again.
"Sister, don't be so cold, we are both Chinese, we meet old acquaintances in other places, and fellow villagers see old people."
Bai Rouying's hand paused slightly, hesitated for a while, and finally turned her head and smiled softly at Song Wanyang, which could be regarded as expressing her kindness.
In the face of people she is not very familiar with, Bai Rouying is actually not very good at communication, but Song Wanyang has already shown kindness to herself, and Bai Rouying naturally has no reason to be cold to her.
Probably thinking that Bai Rouying's personality was a little boring, Song Wanyang sat with her chin on the side and watched Bai Rouying armed.
After looking at it for a while, she couldn't help but speak again: "I heard that this international designer competition invited several well-known entrepreneurs from our Huaxia, do you know?" ”
Bai Rouying has been actively preparing for the game for a while, and she hasn't heard much about some side news.
She shook her head honestly: "I don't know." ”
Song Wanyang sighed, and suddenly became interested, Bai Rouying didn't know, then it was time for her to behave.
She dragged the chair next to Bai Rouying, and began to talk almost endlessly: "You don't know, this is big news in our country, have you been staying abroad recently?" Let me tell you, this incident has caused quite a stir in China. ”
Bai Rouying was so focused on making up her makeup that it was really difficult to be distracted, and listening to Song Wanyang also miss a sentence.
It's just that it's really hard to refuse the enthusiasm of others, so I can only nod lightly from time to time, indicating that I am listening.
Fortunately, Song Wanyang is not the kind of person who needs to be echoed by others, almost give him a stage, and he can shine alone.
"You should know about our top ten domestic enterprises, right? It is said that five of the top 10 companies participated in the International Designer Competition. ”
In previous years, there were not many domestic companies that were qualified to participate in the evaluation of international designer competitions, so they suffered a lot in the selection of the preliminary round, and many Chinese players were eliminated in the preliminary round.
This time, with the participation of domestic companies and well-known domestic designers as judges, it must be fairer for them Chinese players.
Bai Rouying agreed with this, and she nodded: "I know a little. ”
Jinyu's Jinshi Group is one of the top ten enterprises in China.
Although he does not rank high among the top ten domestic enterprises, the group is more of a hidden strength, and it may not be lower than the others if it is really compared to the hidden strength.
