Chapter 283: Walking Against the Wind and Born to the Sun
"Sister, take a rest."
Jiang Chen walked to Ruan Qingqing's side, took the pencil in her hand and put it on the pen stand, then led her, walked to the sofa and sat down, let her lie on his lap, and he used his hand to help her gently massage her temples.
"Jiang Chen."
After a while, Ruan gently opened his eyes, and his apricot eyes, which had been moist and translucent, were now full of confusion, confusion, and frustration.
"I wondered if I wasn't a good fit for the design industry."
Jiang Chen lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes were gentle and doting, "In my opinion, no one is born with what to do, what is suitable for doing, only likes and dislikes, wants or not." Sister, this is your dream, it is something you like, then you are the most suitable. ”
Ruan frowned slightly, and her voice was full of annoyance, "But the works I design are always denied. I was denied by Mr. Xu before, and I can comfort myself because I have shallow experience, but I have been here for half a year, I have learned a lot, and I have seen many world-class master works, and I have also bought a lot of fashion magazines to study and observe, but I still can't even make a graduation work. ”
"Jiang Chen, am I useless?"
Jiang Chen gently rubbed the wrinkles between her eyebrows with his fingertips, and his deep voice was extremely gentle, "Sister, have you forgotten the purpose of your visit to San Martin?" ”
"You are here to learn, to improve and break through yourself, against the wind, there will be difficulties and setbacks is inevitable."
"If there are 100 steps on the way to your dream, then every step you take now, you are one step closer to your dream, as long as you keep walking, you will reach your dream one day."
Ruan was comforted by his words, and her mood was a little better.
"However, Jiang Chen, if I can't complete my graduation project this time, I have to repeat the first preparatory class, and the date of returning to China will also be extended."
Knowing that she was worried about this, the corners of Jiang Chen's mouth hooked slightly, "Don't say a year, even if it's five years or ten years, I will wait for you." ”
Ruan pouted lightly dissatisfied, "I don't want to graduate after studying for so many years, and I will be an old woman by then." ”
"Isn't that just the right time to live and learn to be old?"
"You hate it!"
Ruan was so angry that he hit him, but his mood was much brighter, and he had a smile on his face.
She sat up, hooked Jiang Chen's neck and kissed him, kissing the whole person softly snuggled in his arms.
"Jiang Chen, it's good to have you, or you won't go back."
It was here to accompany her, and with him, she could give birth to infinite courage and confidence.
Jiang Chen's heart was like being crumpled and flattened.
He wanted to agree, and he was reluctant to disappoint her, but the reality made him have to refuse ruthlessly.
He lightly clasped the back of the head of the person in his arms, and said softly: "Sister, after the Spring Festival, I will come to see you again." ”
Ruan gently raised his head from his arms, his apricot eyes shining, "Really? ”
"Hmm."
"But the round-trip fare is very expensive."
Jiang Chen combed her forehead with her slender fingers, her eyebrows and eyes were warm, "I will work hard to earn money when I go back." ”
Hearing him say this, Ruan suddenly let go of his worries.
He is Jiang Chen, a boss in the shopping mall in his last life, he will definitely be able to.
"You've been here for so long, is there a problem with the company? What if something important comes to you? ”
"There's a fat man watching, it's okay."
said that he wanted to think about Zhang Chunxi, Ruan couldn't help but gossip a little more, "Does Chunxi have a girlfriend now?" ”
"Nope."
Ruan was slightly puzzled, "Chunxi looks pretty good, and now that she has a career, why can't she have a girlfriend?" ”
"He doesn't have time."
Ruan laughed lightly, "Are you so busy, you don't even have time to have a girlfriend?" ”
Jiang Chen was noncommittal, "Don't talk about him, sister, let's talk about something else." ”
Ruan glanced at him lightly, "Then what do you want to talk about?" ”
"Let's talk about your graduation project, what is the reason for the teacher's veto?"
When it comes to her studies, Ruan gently becomes frustrated again, "I say that my work is not innovative enough, lack imagination and personality, but I have tried my best to create, maybe I am really not as good as others, they can design bright and innovative works, but I can't." ”
"Sister, everyone has their own good side, you might as well consider using your strengths and avoiding weaknesses to play to your strengths."
"But I don't think I have any advantages, the people around me are better than me, and they have a lot of wild ideas in their heads."
"You can think differently and they show you a lot of things that you haven't seen before, and you can also let them see things that they've never seen before."
Something that people here haven't seen before?
Ruan's lightly confused eyes gradually brightened and glowed with dazzling brilliance.
"Jiang Chen, I thought about what I was going to do!"
She happily kissed Jiang Chen on the mouth, then jumped off the sofa and ran to the easel.
Looking at Ruan Qingqing, who was seriously designing on the drawing paper, Jiang Chen's Qingjun face showed tenderness.
His princess wasn't a stupid girl, she was just lost.
……
As evening approached, the golden glow reflected in the sky outside the window, and Ruan Qingqing finally completed the first draft of her fifth graduation project.
"Jiang Chen, come over for a moment."
Hearing Ruan shouting softly, Jiang Chen put down the half-cut dish and walked out of the kitchen to the drawing board.
"What do you think?"
The sunset outside the window is bright, but it is less than one-ten-thousandth of the girl's vivid face.
Jiang Chen's gaze moved from Ruan Qingqing's face to the drawing paper, "Very good, but do you want to consider it, the color can be more intense and more impactful?" ”
Ruan Qingqing's design is inspired by the horse-faced pleated skirt that originated in the Song Dynasty.
The top is a short, narrow-sleeved shirt from the Song Dynasty, which is combined with modern shirts, and the neckline retains the collar of the shirt, but the cuffs and hem are in a shirt style, which is simple and generous.
The horse-faced pleated skirt on the lower body, while retaining the characteristics of the horse-faced pleated skirt, the waistband has been widened and tightened to achieve the effect of modifying and highlighting the female body curve.
But in terms of color, she followed the soft and elegant of Song costume, and the whole design looks classical and elegant, in order to show the tradition and dignity of oriental women.
That was her original train of thought.
But Jiang Chen's suggestion made her realize that her ideas and designs were still too conservative.
Who said that an Oriental woman has to be dignified? Why can't it be publicized?
Ruan gently lifted the pen and changed the color of light ochre and turmeric to black and red.
The pure black silk blouse is paired with a cinnabar red horse-faced skirt, and the gold thread embroidery on the skirt is intricate and exquisite, which is both fashionable and very characteristic of traditional Chinese culture.
As Jiang Chen said, St. Martin's has allowed her to see the world's top and most cutting-edge fashion, why can't she do the opposite and let St. Martin see the characteristics of China's traditional culture?
Looking at the design drawings on the drawings, pride and pride made her blood boil.
She suddenly understood the meaning of art, a really good work is not to get the teacher's recognition or high score, but what it promotes and transmits.
It is its mission to let more people see, recognize it, and understand its heritage and history.
