Jiang Wenyu
Zhong Beiyue rolled her eyes and said, "I'm not disappointed at all, just a little... alright, just a tiny bit."
Chen Lan walked over and, rarely, gave Zhong Beiyue a slight smile, saying, "Everything's pretty good overall."
Only then did Zhong Beiyue smile again and say, "You don't need to comfort me. This is actually my first time attempting this kind of design, and I knew there would definitely be some shortcomings. I called you here today because I wanted you to evaluate this dress."
Chen Lan hurriedly said, "But there are many design methods in this dress I've never seen before, and the sewing technique is superb. How did you manage it?"
Zhong Beiyue suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "That's my secret, I can't tell you. Actually, I learned it abroad. Half relies on machines, the other half on handwork. The clothes you make now are basically all done with those old-fashioned sewing machines, right?"
Chen Lan nodded slightly. Zhong Beiyue suddenly turned serious and said, "That won't do! Designers must also adapt to the changes of the times. I know clothes made by sewing machines aren't bad either, but times have changed now. Many good machines can better bring design ideas to life."
Chen Lan thought for a moment and said, "But those machines should be very rare and expensive, right?"
Zhong Beiyue nodded and said, "Even so, you can still learn some advanced design concepts first. I can help you!"
Chen Lan smiled again and said, "Forget it this time. I still want to find my younger sister first."
While the two were talking, Jiang Wenyu saw Chen Lan's slightly disappointed expression. She truly loved fashion design, and she was truly considering Jiang Wenyu's feelings. He felt a slight pang of bitterness in his heart, but he had already decided that no matter what path Chen Lan chose in the future, he would go all out to help her.
"Then can you help me find my sister afterwards?" With the matter promised to Zhong Beiyue already concluded, Chen Lan still asked about the main topic.
Zhong Beiyue immediately nodded and said, "Of course. But finding someone takes time. I'm very confident I can help you find her, but during this period, could you help me with something else?"
Chen Lan didn't answer herself but looked at Jiang Wenyu again. The latter shrugged and smiled, saying, "I don't mind. She's right. Since finding someone takes time, you might as well look around more during this period. It's a rare trip to Jianghai City."
Chen Lan agreed right then. Zhong Beiyue looked delighted again and said, "Great! Like this, I'll find you a better place to stay. Tonight I'll contact people to help you search, and then I'll come find you tomorrow!"
……
Just like that, the two were arranged by Zhong Beiyue into a new residence. The environment here could be described as comfortable and leisurely.
Around ten o'clock in the evening, Zhong Beiyue came running over again, saying she had contacted people and the search for Chen Na had begun.
Not to mince words, this girl's network is truly impressive. According to her, in just these few short hours she had already found about dozens of people to help them search, and these dozens of people were quite formidable too.
Zhong Beiyue said most of this relied on her father's connections, but even so it was deeply moving.
Lying down to rest in the evening, Chen Lan seemed very satisfied this day.
Jiang Wenyu smiled and said, "Happy now? You've been gloomy this whole journey."
Chen Lan smiled and said, "Being able to find Chen Na as soon as possible naturally makes me happy. And getting to see those fashion designs... I'm very happy too."
The two talked a lot with each other, making each other laugh from time to time. Afterwards Chen Lan said again, "Tomorrow you go busy with your own affairs. During this search period I can't have you keep accompanying me."
It had been several days, all spent busy with Chen Lan's matters, which made her a bit embarrassed. Jiang Wenyu just went along with her wishes and nodded, saying, "Alright, then you must also pay attention to safety."
The two fell asleep together, and a night passed in a hazy blur.
Early the next morning, Jiang Wenyu ate breakfast with Chen Lan and immediately went out the door.
Yes, it had been several days, and time-wise he had to hurry. Although it was recruitment, Jiang Wenyu had clearly already set some goals long ago.
