"Okay." Wen Nuan organized the design drafts she was most satisfied with and waited quietly for Yun Duo and her two children to arrive. For so reason, she had a vague sense of anticipation.
"Ze, you go to work. I’ll take the two of them upstairs." Yun Duo got out of the car, held Zhan Yanran and Zhan Haoxuan’s hands respectively, and gently smiled at Zhan Aoze, urging him to leave.
She usually didn’t like anything too grand, but since it was Grandpa Zhan Qingfeng’s 80th birthday and also the 40th anniversary of the Zhan Corporation, it had to be grand. The designer was recomnded by Tan Qing, a very chic girl with a lot of spirit in her design. When she saw Wen Nuan’s previous works, she liked them at first sight.
Zhan Aoze raised his good-looking eyebrows gently. He was just about to agree, but then changed his mind: "Duo Duo, I’ll go with you."
Yun Duo was slightly stunned, then quickly understood, a glint of mischief flashed in her eyes: "Okay."
This habit of his, who knows when it will change. She hadn’t teased him for a few days, hehe, today was just the opportunity.
"Wow, pretty sister!"
As soon as Wen Nuan brought Zhan Aoze and Yun Duo into the design studio, Zhan Yanran and Zhan Haoxuan exclaid in surprise: "Sister, you’re the designer."
"I didn’t expect it to be you either, co in quickly." Wen Nuan gave a sweet smile and invited the two of them to sit down.
Faced with Yun Duo and Zhan Aoze’s surprise, she recounted the events of that night. Then she took out the design drawings for Yun Duo to choose from.
"This one’s not bad, Ze, look, I quite like this set." Yun Duo picked up a drawing and handed it to Zhan Aoze to see.
"This one..." Zhan Aoze was initially excited, but then dimd: "Duo Duo, pick another one."
"Why?" Yun Duo blinked, her watery eyes shining brightly, looking puzzled, "I think it’s great, is sothing wrong?"
Zhan Aoze gritted his teeth, pretending, huh?
"I don’t like it." He raised an eyebrow.
Yun Duo huffed, glaring: "But I do!"
Wen Nuan looked at the pair with difficulty, unsure how to intervene. Instead, the two kids exchanged glances and giggled, seeing her discomfort, tugged on her hand: "It’s okay, sister, don’t worry."
"Honey..." Zhan Aoze looked at Yun Duo’s wide eyes, furrowing his brow slightly, but his tone softened. He glanced back at Wen Nuan and pulled the door open: "Miss Wen, could you please step out for a mont? Yanran, Haoxuan, you two as well."
Wen Nuan chuckled lightly as she watched Zhan Aoze close the door, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Did they get it wrong?
That was her office, yet she was driven out just like that.
Turning back to hold Zhan Haoxuan and Zhan Yanran’s hands, she asked with a cheerful smile: "What are you two laughing about?"
"Do you know why my dad wouldn’t let my mom have that dress, sister?" Haoxuan stopped laughing.
"Why? Is there sothing wrong with my design?" Wen Nuan was puzzled. She had seen the brightness in Zhan Aoze’s eyes, but also his gloominess, wondering if there was a flaw in her design.
"Not at all, it’s because the dress you designed has a sexy back..."
Yanran didn’t continue, but Wen Nuan understood. The dress’s back was quite revealing, perfectly showcasing Mrs. Zhan’s back curve to everyone.
The door soon opened again, Yun Duo, her face slightly red, pushed Zhan Aoze out: "Go to work, I’ll choose the dress myself, okay?"
Seeing Wen Nuan, she quickly apologized: "Sorry, Miss Wen, please don’t mind. My husband... doesn’t like wearing outfits with revealing backs."
She knew this about Zhan Aoze, but she hadn’t expected that to persuade her, he would actually kick the designer out of the office.
"It’s alright, you two have a lovely relationship. There are a few more designs, see if you like any of them, Mrs. Zhan." Wen Nuan shook her head with a light smile, a true admiration in her eyes.
Do all n dislike their won wearing sothing too revealing?
Her thoughts flew to the Tan family’s ball, where she had worn a dress designed by her ntor; it was both fashionable and bold. Leng Yan had made so remarks about it.
On the surface, it seed petty. But upon deeper thought, wasn’t it a form of love for one’s wife?
Love...
Wen Nuan bitterly chuckled in her heart. Ha! She had once again linked this word to Leng Yan. Wasn’t it foolish and pointless?
After Yun Duo left with her children, Wen Nuan tightly shut her eyes, then opened them again, forcefully pushing Leng Yan out of her mind, trying to correct the flaws in her design. Her phone rang, and seeing Tan Qing’s number, a smile appeared on Wen Nuan’s pretty face: "Why are you calling at this ti?"
"Guess where I am?" Tan Qing laughed, already stepping into the elevator. The tenderness in his eyes spreading wide: "Nuannuan, did you miss ?"
Wen Nuan looked at the design draft, smiling slightly, unsure how to respond.
She was trying to accept Tan Qing, and he had sent her a photo of himself, which she set as her laptop wallpaper, hoping that looking at him often might shift her feelings.
Honestly, she did think about him a little, but didn’t know how to express it, because her feelings for Tan Qing were so different from those for Leng Yan back then.
She fell in love with Leng Yan at first sight. But for Tan Qing, it started from friendship, and this identity change was sothing she hadn’t adapted to. Sotis, staring at Tan Qing’s photo, he suddenly turned into Leng Yan...
She couldn’t describe the feeling, just that it was chaotic and helpless, sotis she felt like crying, her nose stinging.
"Didn’t miss ?" A hint of disappointnt appeared on Tan Qing’s face, he sighed slightly: "But I missed you."
"Tan Qing..."
Listening to the warmth still present in his sigh, Wen Nuan’s heart stirred. She lightly inhaled: "When are you coming to E City?"
Tan Qing stepped out of the elevator, joy rising in his eyes once more. Did she want to see him? Although no sweet words were spoken, he couldn’t help but feel a little excited, he knocked on Wen Nuan’s office door with a smile.
"Tan Qing?"
Wen Nuan looked at the open door, stunned for a mont, surprise flashing in her eyes, she put down the phone: "Weren’t you arriving the day after tomorrow?"
"I finished my work ahead of schedule and ca over, aren’t you surprised?"
Tan Qing chuckled as he walked over, standing next to Wen Nuan, he lowered his head to look at her design: "It’s really good. I just ran into Yun Duo, she said she really likes it and looks forward to wearing the clothes you designed."
"You know Mrs. Zhan?" Wen Nuan was slightly taken aback hearing Tan Qing directly call Yun Duo by her na.
Tan Qing nodded: "I t Aoze while studying abroad, we were in the sa school, he’s my senior. When MT set up a branch in E City, I asked him for help, and that’s how I ca to know Yun Duo. This ti, I’m not only here to see you but also to attend the banquet for Old Master Zhan. Nuannuan, will you accompany ?"
