Chapter 140: Unexpected Joy
The last days of August went by quickly. Yan Juan's life returned to the original point again, going to school every morning, and going to Yan's with Liu Wenling in middle school.
"Yan Juan, I really envy you." Liu Wenling panted and sat in the passenger seat.
Because Yan Juan was afraid of being too popular, the car stopped at the 'door' of the supermarket thousands of kilometers away from the school. The two of them had to walk a little way every day to pick up the car and drive to Yan's.
"What is there to envy? As long as you work hard, God will always close a 'door' and leave a window for you. Yan Juan smiled and encouraged, "Actually, I am not special, my family background and qualifications are not outstanding." But I have always believed that diligence can be clumsy, and opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. ”
That's a really good thing to say. However, when I hear Director Liu and Mr. Yan talk about you, they always say that you are very talented, and others can't catch up no matter how hard they try. ”
Yan Juan shook his head: "Talent is only one aspect, at least I haven't found any talent in jewelry." ”
If not, why didn't she have the slightest interest in jewelry in her previous life? The famous stone name 'jade' she has worn is also quite a lot, although most of them are only new products launched by the Lu family, and it is necessary for her to wear them to attend some banquets in a high-profile manner.
For three years, she was stunned and had no interest in painting!
The so-called talent, probably to be diligent to make up for it, right?
"Actually, even if you drive to school, what's the matter? Your money comes from clean, and it's not like those people...... Obviously I do that kind of business at night, but I am still alive during the day. Liu Wenling muttered.
"Anyway, we're still students, so it's better to keep a low profile in everything." Yan Wan persuaded meaningfully, a bit of self-persuasion.
If she hadn't been too persuasive in the Yan family recently, how could she have suffered accidents one after another? The scars on the outside of her arm and right leg reminded her of them all the time!
"When I was in school, I didn't understand anything, I just knew that if I couldn't get into college, my whole life would be ruined." Liu Wenling took the initiative to talk about her own affairs, "We are very poor there, and it is inconvenient to 'communicate', so if you want to go out of the mountain, you have to walk for most of the day and climb over two mountains to get to the town." If you say it, you may not believe that there can be a bicycle in the village, that is, the village chief and a few people. ”
Is there still such a poor place? Yan Juan was shocked.
"Really." Liu Wenling smiled bitterly, "Originally, I couldn't go to high school at all. It's just that my grades are really good, and our homeroom teacher, who is a good person, said that he would sponsor me to finish three years of high school, so my parents reluctantly agreed. After a college student came out of our village, their family suddenly got better because the college student was earning money outside. Because of this, I studied angrily, and I had to go to university. If I don't get into college, my family will betrothed me to marry me. Thankfully......"
Yan Juan felt sorry in her heart, no wonder her dress was rustic, cheap artificial gems would be hung all over the place on her body that she could wear, it turned out that deep down, there was such an inferiority complex.
"So, you made a successful step and walked out of your home in the mountains, didn't you? In the future, as long as you continue to work hard, you will definitely go well. Yan Juan said sincerely, and when a red light stopped, he shook her hand vigorously.
Liu Wenling shook it back fiercely, and Yan Juan screamed "ouch": "Oh my God, you won't be the legendary martial arts master, right?" How can you have so much strength! ”
"I ...... Since I was a child, I went up the mountain to chop firewood and helped the family do a little rough work or something, so I have a lot of strength. I...... I'm sorry. ”
Yan Wan smiled: "I'm joking with you, it's not something to be sorry for having a lot of strength!" ”
Liu Wenling smiled embarrassedly, and her voice became lively again: "Actually, I am also very vain, and the money from my work is basically used on my own body." Buying clothes and those gadgets, I always feel that I can't compare to you city people in my bones, so I desperately try to keep up with you. ”
"What I have on me is not as valuable as yours." Yan Juan smiled dumbly.
"Well, you're a bit of an exception." Liu Wenling stuck out her tongue, "Even if your income is put on people who have graduated for three or two years, you can be proud." But you don't show any 'dew' at all, it's really ...... From you, I know that people who are really proud of capital disdain to show their appearance. ”
Yan Juan pondered for a moment: "It's not that you don't need it, but ...... You just treat me as something special! ”
If it weren't for the fact that she was seven years older, she would have been like everyone else, she would have thought carefully and dressed herself up differently.
As soon as he walked into the office, Zhang Qing shouted at Yan Juan: "Okay, Yan Juan, you can hide us so tightly!" ”
Yan Juan was a little inexplicable: "What am I hiding?" ”
She searched her stomach for a while, and she didn't think that she had recently designed any jewelry that could lead the 'tide' of the city.
"You've entered the semifinals, and you're still silent, but you're really calm!" Zhang Zhen smiled and sighed, but in his expression, he was really happy for her.
"Aren't there a hundred more?" Yan Juan said disapprerovingly, "How easy is it to stand out among so many people? In the end, I can't get the award anyway, am I embarrassed to spread it around? ”
"A hundred?" Zhang Qing was dumbfounded, "There are only ten people, that's why I let you go to the award ceremony." If you don't have a chance to win, will you still be sent an invitation? ”
"What ten? Didn't Director Liu say that there were 100 people in the semifinals? ”
Zhang Qing put on an exaggerated expression that was about to faint: "Oh my God, it was all N years ago!" By the time I send you the invitation, there are only 10 people left competing for the final prize! ”
Yan Juan was a little unsure whether she should be happy or surprised, maybe it was both, right? The expression on his face was also a little stiff and he didn't know how to express it, so he just justified "I...... I don't know...... Mr. Liu didn't tell me, only said that he was going to attend the awards, I thought I was just going to see the excitement, I was two points of knowledge, and I was still thinking about whether to ask for leave......
Zhang Qing stared at her, and didn't say anything for a while.
"Congratulations, Yan Xuan." Liu Wenling reacted, and her face was flushed with excitement. As if the person who was about to win the award was her.
"I'm really convinced of you...... Ears and eyes are closed to this point, and it is truly a thousand-year-old wonder. Zhang Qing sighed, "Ready to receive the award, no matter what, I can also win the Newcomer Excellence Award this time, right?" ”
"Uh...... I didn't know what this newcomer award was for, so I thought it was just to join in the fun. Without...... I'm too embarrassed to send my work to the exhibition! You know, I'm just getting started, and these works don't have any mature style......"
Zhang Qing glared at her: "You are really ...... But maybe that's why you'll succeed? There are no distractions, for most people, how many people can really do not be happy with things and not sad with things? If you are not moved by the outside world, you can really get a glimpse of the 'door' path, enter the house, and then become successful. ”
Yan Wan blushed: "You said me so well, in fact, I have the shortcomings of most people!" It's just that I seem to be 'fascinated' by the jewelry itself. ”
"You know, out of a hundred 'women', ninety-nine can't resist the charm of jewelry. You are not the one other than the ninety-nine, but you are also the ninety-nine, the one on the margins. ”
Liu Wenling asked curiously: "The edge part?" ”
"I just seem to like jewelry very much, but in fact, I just jumped out of the Five Realms and stared coldly." Zhang Qing smiled and teased, "We are Yan Juan, and we are such a kind of person. She loves jewelry, but she never has a mind to keep it in mind. She simply likes jewelry as an object, from an objective point of view. ”
"Am I like that?" When Yan Juan repeated Zhang Qing's words to Yan Yixin, they were eating. Liu Li's cheeks became thicker and thicker, and he ran over on time every day to eat, which made Yan Yixin cry and laugh.
"That's right, you're such a person." Liu Li made a very arbitrary judgment before Yan Yixin opened his mouth.
Yan Yixin smiled: "Zhang Qing...... I see you very clearly......"
"Also, Zhang Qing said that at this rookie award ceremony, only the last ten people who entered the semi-finals got the invitation?" Yan Xuan's gaze was left and right, almost lightning speed, and he glared at the two men sitting on her left and right.
"Didn't Liu Li tell you?" Yan Yixin asked unexpectedly, and his eyes followed Yan Xuan, and he also glared at Liu Li.
"It's common sense, do you still need me to say it?" Liu Li innocently raised his head from a plate of Hangzhou pepper beef tenderloin, "It's an earthling, who doesn't know?" ”
"I don't know!" Yan Wan was angry, "You didn't make it clear at that time!" No, there is no vague explanation, it is clearly intended to mislead me. ”
"Do you need to make this clear? What's more, I thought that when you returned to the office, you would be eager to go online to check the basic knowledge of this award ceremony, and prepare a dress or something to attend! How do you know that your eldest lady really shook her hands and was in charge, not in a hurry! ”
Yan Juan glanced at him hatefully, obviously deliberately looking at her embarrassed, right? Who's going to look up all that boring stuff?
Belch...... Maybe except for her!
"If you have time, you can design a piece of jewelry for yourself." Yan Yixin looked at her with a smile, "Don't worry, when the time comes, I will accompany you to participate." ”
Yan Juan's heart has finally settled down, with Yan Yixin by his side, he doesn't have to worry too much about everything, he will arrange everything properly.
"You design the jewelry, and we choose the clothes based on the jewelry." Yan Yixin assigned a new "task".
