Although to Yang Lele, Murong Bai was just an uninvited guest, and Chu Li was inculcated with a series of six senses of the correct proof of events, but Chu Li still could not easily let it go.

To be exact, there was no need for her to think it through, because no matter what, she had already rejected the possibility of dating Jiang Yunxian. After all, sleeping the whole night was not meaningless, and she would absolutely not allow herself to fall twice in love.

After a day's rest, Chu Li had fully recovered. However, when she saw Jiang Yunxian, she felt a little embarrassed and angry. However, since Murong Bai was beside her, she had to pretend that nothing had happened.

"Chu Li, the results of the preliminaries are out. You can start preparing for the second round. You can take a look at the details."

Jiang Yunxian handed over a red folded page with a wide smile on his face. Chu Li took it and looked at it. It was the qualifying list for this year's preliminary competition. He estimated that there were about one to two hundred people on it.

Chu Li's name was at the top of the list. At the same time, she noticed something shocking. On the list, Zhao Xinru and Gong Qingtian were also there.

"Your Starry Night theme suit has been unanimously praised by the judges. It's really outstanding. I'm happy for you." Jiang Yunxian unexpectedly clapped and walked over, "Actually, when I first saw it, I felt that it wouldn't be a problem to enter the finals. I believe that you will be able to easily handle the following matches."

Chu Li smiled and politely said, "Thank you."

Looking at the folded page of the notice, Chu Li realized that the second selection was an official topic, and everyone was free to use the topic of environmental protection. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous, because five days was a time to design and create, as well as to do their daily work, so she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to deal with it easily.

As for the work at hand, I will temporarily assign it to others to lighten the burden on you. After all, this is not an ordinary competition, and there are internationally renowned designers among the judges. Therefore, once the news of this event emerged, it would already attract a lot of attention.

Jiang Yunxian seemed to be able to guess Chu Li's dilemma. Chu Li felt touched by his words, but her emotions couldn't shake the decision in her heart.

"It doesn't matter, participating in the tournament doesn't actually involve work, so I can't delay work because of my own intentions." When Chu Li refused, he was resolute and decisive.

"Miss Chu knows herself well!"

At this moment, Murong Bai, who was standing at the side, had a proud smile on his face. He crossed his arms and looked at Chu Li. "I think so too. After all, a tournament is a competition. Work is work. You can't fight over it."

She turned to Jiang Yunxian, "According to you, if her good results in the finals are to bring glory to the emperor, then have you ever thought about what would happen if she were to lose her reputation? Not only would he be mocked by the crowd, he would even be delaying his work. "Moreover …"

Murong Bai deliberately raised his head and said in a loud voice, "In my opinion, if there's no land championship, then everyone will be a loser. But can you predict if she'll be the champion?" That can't be right? If you can't, don't treat her with certainty that she will win the championship. It will make you lose yourself. "

"Now that I'm talking to my subordinates, what are you talking about? Is he accusing me of my decision? " Jiang Yunxian was a little impatient, so he said it straightforwardly.

Murong Bai quickly turned gentle. "I'm just thinking about the bigger picture, don't misunderstand. Is it even worth getting angry at me for such a small matter?" "I'm afraid you haven't woken up from last night's drinking?" As he spoke, he extended his hand to help massage Jiang Yunxian's head.

Jiang Yunxian avoided the hand lightly and walked up to Chu Li to comfort her. "Don't mind her. She doesn't have any sense of propriety when she speaks, and she doesn't represent my point of view at all. Just do as I say and go back first. You don't have to worry about anything else."

Chu Li had clearly seen the hidden dagger in Murong Bai's smile. She only smiled and once again rejected Jiang Yunxian, "I don't mind. What Miss Murong said makes sense. I can't give up my job for my own competition. It would harm the interests of others if I were to become the host."

Jiang Yunxian seemed to have more to say, but Chu Li left the office before he could say anything.

For a full five days, Chu was busy working for the second round of the designer competition. After several nights, he finally handed the script to Jiang Yunxian as scheduled.

"It's really amazing!" The inverted funnel dress was very playful, the droplets resonating with the spray at the end of the skirt, and the blue and white pairing, though common, was always fresh. The gradient was also handled well … "

When Jiang Yunxian raised his head, Chu Li felt that he had seen two resplendent objects. She deliberately shifted her gaze away from Jiang Yunxian.

"I guess you want to express your appreciation for water resources. This is probably what it means by 'little by little'. A precious drop of water can be exchanged for so much ocean water … "

Chu Li was shocked. She had not even spoken, yet Jiang Yunxian had already guessed the meaning of her work. Furthermore, he was almost right. She stood there stunned, unable to speak for a moment.

"Am I wrong?" Jiang Yunxian asked carefully, "Perhaps you don't intend to do this. I'm a little out of hand. After all, I'm just a layman, so you can tell me your true thoughts."

"That's about it. You're right."

Although he agreed, but the expressionless look on Chu Li's face made Jiang Yunxian a bit embarrassed. He walked closer with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, "Chu Li, do you really have to speak to me like that? Was it because of what happened before? At least let me make it clear. "

"How can I speak? What should I say to my boss? " Chu Li was ineffably angry. He thought back to how Murong Bai had rubbed Jiang Yunxian's temples intimately in front of her. 'Did they drink that night?' What about after the drink?

As if she was thinking too much, Chu Li quickly shook her head, intending to leave.

"Listen to me!" Jiang Yunxian quickly stopped her and walked over with a serious expression. "I don't know about Murong Bai coming back, but in my heart …"

"Hey, Lemon! Your design is finished? His speed was too fast! Looks like I've underestimated you. Do you have confidence in winning the championship? After all, we're the chief designer who's going to bring glory to the entire heavens, so we can't just casually deal with them, right? "

At this time, Mu Rong Bai walked in from outside with a plate of fruits in hand. He stuffed a peeled apple into Jiang Yunxian's hand, "It's very sweet. We used to buy it from that fruit shop, but the boss actually recognized me. She has such a good memory!"

Mu Rong Bai smiled sweetly at Jiang Yunxian. He looked completely in love. When she tilted her head, half of the aura she had brought with her was gone. Chu Li was frozen on the spot.

"Hey, do you want to eat some?" Murong Bai handed the plate over, as if he suddenly remembered that there was someone else beside him.

"No, thank you."

After the righteous rejection, Chu Li hurriedly escaped from the scene. She no longer wished to have any illusions about Jiang Yunxian, but she was also curious about what he had not finished speaking at that time.

Moreover, while this work was still being drafted, the designers who came to consult her had also seen it, but none of them had directly stabbed her in the heart like Jiang Yunxian had said. After all, it was a matter of joy to be understood.

Just after work that day, Chu Li was able to receive a call from his mother. Although he had already suffered several times on the phone, Chu Li was still able to respond in time.

"Lemon! Are you off duty? I've been waiting for you outside your company's entrance for two hours now. I didn't want to disturb you, so I waited until now to call. "

Chu Li quickly took the elevator down and found her on a bench outside, according to his mother's vague description, holding the phone.

"Why so sudden?" Chu Li couldn't help but ask. At first, she was a little angry that her mother had found the company again and was afraid that she would say something she shouldn't, but when she first saw the woman with messy hair and a haggard face, her heart immediately softened.

Chu Mu's mother grinned and stood up. She took both of Chu Li's hands and gently rubbed them together. I've been busy these past few days. I have to take care of the land at home, and I also have to go to the hospital to accompany your father. Your brother couldn't leave the school because of the activities of the society, so I called him home today. "

Her mother's eyes were filled with tears and her hands were trembling. Chu Li quickly helped her to a seat.

I know that I've already borrowed 200,000 from your boss, and I called you back to return. I'm sorry to inform you by phone this time, but your dad is indeed in the hospital right now, and that 200,000 yuan might not be enough for decoration. Your dad and I haven't touched a single cent, but now that we're at the gate to using money, so … "

"So, you came to find me?"

Although Chu Li felt sorry for his father's illness, he was still furious that they kept asking him for money. She wasn't a cash machine, and she wasn't his only guardian, so why did it seem as if her brother's life was about to be pushed onto her? Loving and caring for him were inevitable, but there was no need for him to be so patriarchal!

"If I don't come looking for you, who else can I look for? As a mother, I am very proud of you. Right now, in addition to your father's hospital fees, your brother is also in a hurry to change his computer! "
