Send Huo Yu away, and when he returned upstairs again, Xia Chengzhang was already waiting in the living room.
"Yo," Xia Wan laughed, "You haven't been secretly staring at our movements, have you?"
Xia Chengzhang smiled, neither admitting nor denying,
Instead, she said with satisfaction: "Xiaoyu is a good child, mature and stable, and the most important thing is to treat you well."
"But you can see that he treats me well just by meeting?"
"Dad has seen people all his life," Xia Chengzhang affirmed, "I won't see it wrong."
Xia Wan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking, you are wrong now.
But not only did he not point it out, but he raised his head proudly: "Of course, you don't care who chose this person."
Xia Chengzhang was amused by him and laughed, and scolded: "I don't know shame."
"Dad," the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, Xia Wan took the opportunity to shake Xia Chengzhang's hand, "I will have surgery on Monday, are you afraid?"
"It's nothing to be afraid of." Xia Chengzhang said, "I don't know how much I wish for an earlier surgery."
"Yes." Xia Wan nodded.
Seeing his dignified expression, Xia Chengzhang patted the back of his hand soothingly: "Dad has lived to this age, and he is no longer afraid of anything."
"You're not too old." Xia Wan said softly.
"
At that time, he was still young, a top student in the architecture department of a famous university, and he had just founded an architectural design company with his most trusted relatives and friends…
He was at his most energetic, but an accident completely smashed him into the dust.
Xia Chengzhang couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
Even though eighteen years have passed, the circles of his eyes are still slightly red involuntarily when he thinks of the past.
Over the years, this was the first time Xia Chengzhang took the initiative to mention the accident.
When I was a child, the original owner also asked, but Xia Chengzhang never gave a positive answer, and every time he was dismissed with an "accident".
Later, as the child grew up, he gradually understood that as long as the accident was mentioned, Xia Chengzhang would be lost and upset.
Over time, no one mentioned it again.
"It's all over." Xia Chengzhang said, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said with emotion, "Fortunately, you are by my side."
"It's fortunate that you have been with me all the time," Xia Wan held Xia Chengzhang's hand a little harder, "otherwise I don't know what it will be like."
For so many years, father and son have depended on each other for life. Although it was not easy, Xia Chengzhang never let Xia Wan suffer.
His hands were white and tender, not like a child from such a family at all.
Xia Wan's eyes are clean and pure, as bright as gems, looking at Xia Chengzhang full of admiration.
Xia Chengzhang suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
He turned his eyes away unconsciously, and his eyes were also stained with a tired look.
On two weekends, I stayed in my room in the evening to concentrate on painting, and didn't go out much.
Large swathes of yellow spread across the canvas, as if the earth and the sun were one color.
In a golden ocean, the blue-black mountain trails meander out, slender and circling, as if you can't see the end, adorned with a waterfall in the depths of the distant mountains that reflects the sunlight.
The girl stood in the middle, raised her head slightly, and looked at the birds passing under the sun in the sky through her fingers.
The fiery red rose wreath and the pure and bright smile make the whole painting suddenly vivid and bright.
Xia Wan hopes that in the rest of Xia Chengzhang's life, there will be no pain, only flowers and smiles.
No need to send the summer evening, Huo Yu arrived at the office early in the morning.
He came early, and someone came earlier than him. On the same floor, Li Congmeng's office door was half open.
"Mr. Li," Huo Yu knocked on the door, "Didn't you say it's okay, let you rest for a few days before going to work?"
"Idle is also idle." Li Congmeng was busy giving up his seat for Huo Yu, and smiled, "It's better to come to work earlier."
This is where Li Congmeng's dream sprouts, and also the first stop on her career path.
Now that I'm revisiting the old place, I can't wait.
Not only today, she also came quietly once when she returned to China for business a few years ago.
It was just that Yan Yu was dead at that time, and had long lost her initial vigor.
She thought that in a few years, Yan Yu would probably completely disappear from this world.
Never thought it would be reborn again.
"I'm looking at the materials of the previous years," Li Congmeng said, "With Yanyu's current situation, it may take quite a while to return to the grand occasion of the year. Be mentally prepared."
"I know." Huo Yu said, "I have thought about this for a long time."
Li Congmeng nodded, her eyes fell on Huo Yu's left ring finger: "Is this the ring your father left?"
"Yes." Huo Yudao.
Yanzi, I still remember how good it is to wear it on her hand."
Huo Yu heard the words and was slightly ecstatic.
But there is another hand.
"If your parents can see who you are today," Li Congmeng said with emotion, "they will be proud of you."
Huo Yu smiled and said nothing.
After a while, he took out a document from his bag and handed it to Li Congmeng.
"This is a set of jewelry design drafts, please take a look at Mr. Li."
"There is a manuscript so soon?" Li Congmeng was a little surprised, "Did it stay before?"
She looked at the previous product design styles and didn't think there was anything useful.
"No," Huo Yu said, "I designed it."
From the moment she saw the ring on Huo Yu's hand, Li Congmeng had a guess.
So when Huo Yu mentioned the word "my object", she was not too surprised.
"Your partner is also studying jewelry?" Li Congmeng asked.
"He studied painting." Huo Yu smiled, and the corners of his lips raised a soft arc, "But his child's temperament is more serious, so he just paints."
Li Congmeng opened the file bag and smiled: "Then he must love you very much, so he can complete a whole set of creations in such a short period of time."
Huo Yu pursed his lips and smiled.
Love?
The word seemed to suddenly float to the tip of his heart, because he never thought about it.
I don't know whether I will win or lose in the future, and this situation is not very suitable for love.
But when Li Congmeng said this, he couldn't help but be slightly lost.
The design draft was unfolded page by page, and Li Congmeng's casual expression gradually became serious.
She turned page by page, and finally raised her eyes to look at Huo Yu and asked, "Are you sure that your subject is not studying jewelry."
Her reaction was completely expected by Huo Yu, he nodded slightly: "I was also very surprised by his talent, so I specially showed it to the teacher."
Li Congmeng read the design draft carefully again: "Are you sure he made this after you took over the company?"
Huo Yu nodded affirmatively.
"It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves," Li Congmeng couldn't help but sigh, "Even me, it's difficult to complete such an exquisite design in such a short time.",
"Does the teacher have any other views?" Huo Yu asked.
"Some of these elements are not very new," Li Congmeng said slowly, "but his combination is very delicate. If there are such excellent works before, it should not be silent."
"He is indeed very talented." Li Congmeng sighed softly.
"Teacher, I have an idea." Huo Yu leaned back, and his deep eyes watched Li Congmeng quietly.
"You said." Li Congmeng said.
"I want to focus on this set, assist other new products, and launch this autumn's new products ahead of schedule." Huo Yu spoke slowly and solemnly, "But before that, I want to hear your opinion ."
He thought that with Li Congmeng's status, he would be unwilling to be subordinated to others, but he did not expect Li Congmeng to clapp his hands very readily: "I also mean this."
"Yan Yu is now starting from scratch almost, and must have a set of heavyweight products to support it, and I can't bring my previous design drafts. To recreate a set of boutique products, other aspects need to be I don't care," Li Congmeng said quickly, "For us, this set of drawings is a life saver."
Huo Yu looked at the set of drawings, and his heart trembled slightly.
"Master," Xia Wan's drunken words rang in his ears again, "I won't let you lose."
He touched the ring on his hand gently, and a heat flow slowly escaped in his heart.
The phone rang suddenly, and Huo Yu saw Xia Wan's name.
"Thank you, teacher," he said, "you'll be busy first."
After walking out of Li Congmeng's office, he answered the phone.
"Master," Xia Wan's voice came, "I want to ask you for a leave."
"What leave?" Huo Yu asked, entered his office, and put the drawings and bags on the desk.
"I have to do my homework in the past two days, so I won't go back to your place, okay?" Xia Wan asked.
"No." Huo Yu said.
The opposite side obviously choked, and then even the voice became softer, with a hint of coquettishness: "Please, young master."
"How can I ask?" Huo Yu took the design drafts and put them on the seat.
The corners of his mouth twitched into a smile, but he spoke casually.
"I think about it." Xia Wan said quietly.
"Not sincere." Huo Yu said with a half-smile.
"How about I help you draw the design draft?" Xia Wan suddenly said.
Huo Yu paused for a moment and said, "Finish your homework first, and then let's talk about the design draft."
"Thank you eldest young master," Xia Wan said happily, and patted her ass, "Eldest young master is the best."
Huo Yu listened to his voice and laughed lightly, until the phone hung up, the corner of his mouth did not come down.
In the afternoon, Huo Yu went to Imperial Capital to discuss cooperation with a medium-sized factory.
Although this factory has not been able to directly receive orders from major international brands, it has more than ten years of experience in OEM for various brands.
Both experience and technology fully meet Yan Yu's current needs.
After the contract was signed, it was already dark.
Huo Yu rejected the factory manager's proposal to have dinner together and drove directly to the Academy of Fine Arts.
The operation has been carried out for more than three hours, and Xia Wan also sat outside for more than three hours.
Seeing that the sky was dark outside, and the street lights were dyed a touch of orange outside, I don't know how many times I checked the time in the summer evening.
It's half past six.
He was about to turn off the screen when the phone suddenly vibrated in his palm.
Xia Wan picked it up, with a tired hoarse voice: "Eldest young master."
"So busy?" Huo Yu paused for a moment, and his voice came over coldly, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I'll eat it later." Xia Wan said perfunctorily.
"Don't wait," Huo Yu said, "you come down now."
Xia Wan was stunned for a moment, and just about to speak, the lights in the operating room suddenly dimmed.
He immediately got up and walked forward, and his words became hurried: "I have something to do here, so I won't tell you."
Xia Wan's voice seems to have not disappeared before the phone has been disconnected.
Huo Yu frowned while looking at his mobile phone.
He lowered his eyes and dialed again, but the other party did not answer.
Huo Yu hesitated for a moment, then dialed Shen Xing.
Shen Xing answered quickly: "Brother."
"Yes." Huo Yu replied, "Is Xia Wan there?"
"Xia Wan?" Shen Xing paused, but continued, "He asked Su Tang to take two days off for him, why? Didn't he stay with you?"
Huo Yu was silent for a moment, and his fingers holding the phone felt tight.
After a moment he said, "Okay, I see."
