When the car arrived at the ’Story’ Studio, it was already 9:10.
It was eight minutes past, and Cen Jin hurriedly unbuckled her seatbelt, ready to push open the car door and get out. But as soon as she cracked the door open a little, her arm was grabbed by Jiang Bai Zhou, pulling herself and the door back in.
"What are you doing?" Cen Jin looked at him in horror, half of her body leaning against his.
"Suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable." Jiang Bai Zhou thought for a mont, raised his hand to touch his chest, his expression showing so discomfort.
Hearing this, Cen Jin beca anxious: "Weren’t you fine just now? What’s wrong? Where does it hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital? The nearest one seems to be Nancheng Hospital. Can you still drive?"
The words and expression full of concern from her were seen by Jiang Bai Zhou, and he couldn’t help but smile broadly. He reached out to hold her hand: "I’m just feeling uncomfortable here."
Cen Jin looked at the spot he was covering on his chest, paused a second, and blurted out: "Shortness of breath?"
"..."
Jiang Bai Zhou’s face instantly darkened, caught between laughter and tears. He pointed to his cheek: "A kiss from you will make it better."
"..."
This ti it was Cen Jin who was speechless, realizing her worry was unnecessary. This guy was rely playing a trick to tease her.
"Can you speak properly next ti? I worried for nothing." Seeing that he was okay, Cen Jin breathed a sigh of relief but still complied with his request. She leaned over and kissed his cheek: "Is that enough? I’m getting out now."
But the large hand holding hers had no intention of letting go. Cen Jin looked back at him, puzzled: "Not letting go yet?"
"Not enough."
"Then what else do you want?"
Jiang Bai Zhou narrowed his eyes, looking at her with a smile full of aning. With just one glance, Cen Jin understood completely, laughed, gave him a playful eye-roll, and leaned over again, kissing his lips. She softened her voice deliberately: "Hubby, see you tonight! Love you!" After saying that, she threw him a flirty wink, pulled her hand back, and got out, waving at him before turning to enter the studio.
Jiang Bai Zhou chuckled softly, greatly enjoying her playful manner, feeling his whole being beco delighted. He rhythmically tapped the steering wheel for a mont before starting the car again to drive toward Sijin District.
At 9:30, Cen Jin t with the custor, and negotiations continued until around 11:00 before the deal was finalized. After sending off the couple, Liu Zhiyan ca up, complaining: "Their requests were really high. Changing their minds over and over, they wanted all jewels attached to the wedding dress, acting like nouveau riche, afraid others wouldn’t know they’re wealthy."
"Alright, stop complaining. At least the price they offered was quite satisfying. Twelve days to make a wedding dress and a gown, we’ve got plenty of work ahead. Let’s get energized! We’ll be working overti starting today. Zhiyan, go to the fabric store to choose so materials as backups. Yun Ru, check the inventory for the number 6 and number 3 gold threads. If we’re running low, contact the manufacturer to order more." Cen Jin smiled, patted her shoulder, and called Fan Yunru over, instructing her on the tasks ahead.
"Yes." Liu Zhiyan and Fan Yunru both nodded in agreent and went off to work.
Cen Jin returned to her desk, and just as she sat down to sketch a design draft, Ye Lingran walked over, smiling as she asked: "Negotiations went well?"
"Yeah, went well, and we’ll start working overti today to et the deadline." Cen Jin sighed helplessly: "Have you finished yours?"
Ye Lingran smiled: "Almost, it’s already half a finished product. There are still over twenty days until the agreed deadline, so it’s manageable."
"Then why were you rushing so much before?"
"Finishing early ans it’s done early, no dragging on. I can’t relax until it’s done."
"True." Cen Jin took a deep breath and suddenly rembered: "Oh, right, Ling Ran, are you going to the Yun Group this afternoon?"
Ye Lingran paused at her words, then explained: "Uh...yes, but I’m going to their purchasing departnt because a design from last ti used the sa fabric as one of their company’s. So I had Ling Quan negotiate, and I’m going there in the afternoon to settle accounts with their purchasing departnt..."
