Chapter 33 There is no such thing as a free lunch
There is a shower room in the fitness room, and Wen Ran can hear the sound of water when she sits outside.
She was a little bored, and after looking around, she stopped in mid-air, a little out of focus.
After a while, the sound of water became more and more obvious.
The sound of the water is magically like the key to a certain field, and Wen Ran couldn't help but think of Yan Wangshu shaking his hair when he got up from the pool, and the water droplets rolled along the muscle lines...
Woo...
Wen Ran covered his face with his hands and lowered his head.
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps, and it was the aunt who brought milk and a platter of delicate snacks.
Wen Ran sat down and thanked politely.
Her face must be red now, she thought.
Waiting for the aunt to leave, Wen Ran picked up the cup, raised her head and drank more than half of the milk.
The milk was chilled, which just suppressed the panic in Wen Ran's heart.
About ten minutes later, Yan Wangshu walked out of the shower room.
He was dressed in gray loungewear, and his flaxen hair had only been wiped, not completely dry, wet.
The sharp eyebrows on weekdays are now covered by the broken hair on the forehead, and the light-colored eyes look extremely gentle.
Looking at it this way, it's so soft, like a big golden retriever.
Yan Wangshu sat opposite Wen Ran: "What about your design?" ”
Wen Ran came back to his senses and put down the cup, took out the tablet from his bag to unlock it, opened the design drawing, and pushed it over.
Yan Wangshu stretched out his hand and picked up the tablet: "Tell me what you think." ”
For official business, he has always been decisive and capable, and there is no nonsense.
Wen Ran suddenly felt her nerves tense.
Her pronunciation is shallow, revealing a lack of confidence: "My inspiration was lace, a decorative element of the Renaissance, and the walls of the ring imitated the natural patterns of lace fabrics, and I marked the other details in detail. ”
See for yourself!
Yan Wangshu noticed her strangeness, and raised his eyes to look at her: "The idea is okay." ”
This is, recognized?
Wen Ran pursed her lips and smiled, her voice a little louder: "I chose 18K black gold and diamonds to match the white ice jade, the gold inlaid vines like roses, which not only highlights the feminine tenderness, but also has an independent personality. ”
After Wen Ran finished speaking, he took out a box from his bag and opened it, and inside was the carved wax of this ring.
She handed it over: "I made carved wax, and you can see the ups and downs of the ring wall pattern." ”
Yan Wangshu raised her eyebrows and glanced at Wen Ran, her eyes were very bright staring at herself, like a child showing off her baby.
At this moment, the show-off is over, and it needs to be praised.
The corners of Yan Wangshu's mouth rose imperceptibly, put down the tablet, and took the wax model.
Wen Ran continued: "I have seriously thought about what you said last time. Therefore, this design incorporates the popular elements of the moment and caters to the favor of young people, but the color matching uses a sense of collision to increase the uniqueness. ”
Yan Wangshu's slender fingers pinched the ring wall, looked at it carefully, and slid the tablet with the other hand to carefully check the details of the labeling.
Wen Ran waited patiently and excitedly.
Until Yan Wangshu spoke: "White Ice Jade? ”
He turned his gaze to Wen Ran: "That business set up last time?" ”
"Yes." Wen Ran nodded, his gaze staring at the ground, "If, if the work I submitted last time was this, would I win?" ”
When these words came out, Wen Ran felt that everything around him was quiet.
This answer was too important to her.
She had listened to the voice of approval for so many years, but she was shattered immediately after leaving the haven.
She wanted to regain that recognition.
The confidence to continue on this path.
She looked up uneasily and looked at him, her eyes shining like water, pure anticipation and apprehension.
Yan Wangshu thought that the design that Wen Ran wanted to show himself was something else, but he didn't expect it to be about the last business design.
He didn't expect this little girl to care so much about the result last time, maybe there was another reason?
But it is undeniable that this little girl has qualities that many people do not have now: persistence, seriousness, and refusal to admit defeat.
Yan Wangshu lowered his eyes and glanced at the wax model of the ring, this girl is really more and more like a treasure.
Yan Wangshu put down the tablet and said in a leisurely tone: "It's a pity, that white ice jade is too cheap, if the main stone is replaced with a collection-grade Australian white opal, it will be even more brilliant." ”
The three words 'it's a pity' seem to be synonymous with negation, which makes Wen Ran feel so sad and frustrated in an instant.
But he obviously didn't say that last time.
Wen Ran bit her lip and retorted: "My original intention of this design is no longer to focus on the classic elements of the collection, but to cater to the current popular fashion elements, what does it have to do with the cheap main stone?" ”
Yan Wangshu saw that she was anxious and stopped teasing her: "Do you know the dinner party held by 'Carlisle' in Sioux City at the end of August?" ”
Wen Ran nodded.
The dinner was the launch of Carlisle's fine jewelry, titled "The Rainbow Falling into the Mortal World".
All centre stones are collectible Australian opals, a spin-off of last year's Apollo Jewelry Competition.
It is said that it is a high-end new product launch dinner, but in fact, it is more appropriate to define it with the words "sales dinner".
The dinner was attended by VVVIP customers who have annual sales of millions of dollars.
There will be a large number of celebrities wearing new jewelry designs to the dinner, and they are the best salespeople at the dinner.
Yan Wangshu said the last words: "Wen Ran, you can participate." ”
"What?" Wen Ran blinked in surprise and stammered, "High... Haute couture? ”
Yan Wangshu knew what she was puzzled about, and smiled indifferently: "The slogan at the door of your department's office, 'The designer's product is the work', this is not an empty word. ”
“......”
"Forgotten? I've told you before that 'Carlisle' values the work more. Yan Wangshu raised his chin slightly, his eyes were playful, "Think about it, why did I say this to you at that time......"
Wen Ran answered in his heart: Because I said that 'Carlisle' is a broken company!
This topic made Wen Ran's head buzz and her scalp tingle, so she immediately changed the topic: "So if this work participates in the last commercial design, it will win, right?" ”
"Of course." Yan Wangshu affirmed.
The knotted ball of yarn in my heart was untied.
Wen Ran curled the corners of his lips uncontrollably, looking at Yan Wangshu with a smile and crooked eyes.
In this way, it is really a little pretty.
Yan Wangshu felt his heart sink so much, as if he was about to descend to an unknown place.
As if thinking of something, Wen Ran suddenly leaned on the table with his arms and said, "Then according to the company's regulations, if I have high-end works, can I participate in the 'Apollo Jewelry Design Competition'?" ”
"Yes."
"Really?" This turn of events made Wen Ran unbelievable.
"Really." Yan Wangshu's gaze stopped at the cuffs of Wen Ran's blouse, which were wet, and the thin gauze stuck to the slender and white arms.
Yan Wangshu: "Wen Ran." ”
"Huh?"
"There's a hair dryer in there." Yan Wangshu's eyes gestured to her cuffs, "Go blow it, don't catch a cold." ”
Wen Ran's brain cells were now active and jumping, and when he heard his words, he went straight into the shower room without thinking.
The shower room is brightly lit, with a simple shower partition on the left, a spacious washstand in the middle with a little daily necessities on it, a simple shelf on the right with some towels, etc., and a storage basket below, which must be filled with clothes to be washed.
Wen Ran picked up the hair dryer hanging next to him and before he turned it on, he heard the sound of his fingers clicking on the door.
She turned around, Yan Wangshu's arm gently leaned against the door frame, and the whole person was so leisurely: "Is there a taboo?" ”
“... No. ”
Yan Wangshu nodded, turned around and walked away.
Avoid certain food?
Wen Ran reacted immediately and stopped Yan Wangshu: "Mr. Yan! ”
Yan Wangshu turned sideways: "What?" ”
"I won't disturb you for dinner."
When these words fell, Yan Wangshu's eyes narrowed, and he was a little dangerous: "I can't entertain well?" ”
"......" How could she say that?
"In such a hurry?"
Wen Ran shook his head and denied: "No." ”
"Eat, we'll have to talk about your design later." After saying that, he turned around and left.
He spoke, advancing and retreating in a measured manner, so that Wen Ran had no reason to refute.
Wen Ran thought that he had to learn something.
Wen Ran turned on the hair dryer, and the temperature was very warm.
She moved her hands, unconsciously looking up at herself in the mirror, she seemed to have lost weight recently, and she didn't know what to eat for dinner later.
Her thoughts slowly stretched from the upcoming dinner...
Gradually, her long eyebrows twisted into twists.
No... Right?
It's a bit ridiculous, but it's not untraceable.
Yesterday, she was obviously looking for Shi Ze, but in the end, Yan Wangshu helped her solve it...
He was so busy, not only did he help her, but he also came to see her personally...
I met her and saved my contact information...
Invite her to his house...
Attending a dinner party...
Dinner later...
Isn't he idle?
Or crazy?
Apparently neither, he's shrewd.
A businessman like him, if there is no profit to be made, I am afraid that he will not waste a little more heart.
That's why he bothered so much...
Wen Ran's eyelashes trembled, she looked at the little face in the mirror again, and muttered, "Pictured, it's me?" ”
When Wen Ran went out, there was no one in the fitness room.
She sat back in her chair and took her mobile phone to send a message to Zhai Xinyi.
Wen Ran: [I feel that there is a man who has a plan against me. 】
After two seconds, Wen Ran sent a message with a weak heart: [It's just a feeling. 】
After sending the message, Wen Ran realized that it was bedtime on Zhai Xinyi's side.
She put down her phone and swept her gaze over the desktop to see her tablet and carved wax.
She picked up the carved wax and watched it frown.
If Yan Wangshu is her, then it is really difficult for her not to doubt that it is Yan Wangshu's selfishness that an intern who has just entered the company and has no education and no background can participate in the design of the series of high-end works.
So, was this his quid pro quo?
When his thoughts came to this, Wen Ran stood up, quickly packed the things into his bag, and carried them out.
happened to meet Yan Wangshu coming.
Before Wen Ran could speak, Yan Wangshu beckoned first: "Come with me to the study." ”
Wen Ran exhaled, yes, make it clear, make it clear to him.
Yan Wangshu's study is on the second floor.
He sat down and motioned for Wen Ran to sit down as well.
Yan Wangshu: "Send me your design." ”
This sentence is very attractive to Wen Ran, which is equivalent to competing for the ticket to the filigree incense box competition table.
But Wen Ran knew that he couldn't make a deal with him.
For the filigree incense box is not good.
Yan Wangshu looked at her stunned: "What are you stunned?" ”
Wen Ran thought for two seconds and raised his eyes: "I don't participate." ”
"What?"
Wen Ran stared at Yan Wangshu: "I know that there is no free lunch in the world." ”
