Every word Chen Borui spoke was listened to intently in the classroom, not a single word was missed. 。Nightbringer ultimately won the athletic meet with an absolute advantage, and Andrew was so pleased that he had already forgotten about his upcoming two-month trip to Africa.
That evening, Andrew took Ye Mingjue and An Xiaonuan out for a big meal.
After the sports meet, An Xiaonuan started preparing for the opening ceremony of her mn clothing company.
"Honey, what was the scene like when Xuan Mei was first activated" An Xiaonuan asked Ye Mingjue, who was sitting beside her.
After dinner, the two children had already gone upstairs to do their homework, while An Xiaonuan was pulling Ye Mingjue to discuss the opening ceremony.
She hired a planning company, but there are many options, so she's now struggling to decide which one to choose.
Ye Mingjue had a notebook on his lap, looking at the company's stock market. Hearing An Xiaonuan's question, he thought for a moment and said, "When we first started the company, we just opened it directly without any celebrations."
At first, he had no connections or resources, being penniless and with nothing to his name. Even worse, a group of wolves surrounded him, eyeing him hungrily.
During that time, let alone celebrations, he barely even had time to sleep.
Besides, he started the company just to survive. There was no joy or sense of fulfillment, so in his eyes, any kind of celebration was a waste of time and resources.
An Xiaonuan, after hearing this, felt a little sorry, but she didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only change the subject and say, "Then help me see if this works"
As she spoke, she handed the booklet in her hand over.
Night Mingjue took it over and looked at it, finally choosing the "Flowers in Full Bloom" scheme.
"Wow, you're exactly the same as I thought!" An Xiaonuan said in surprise.
Just then she was about to choose this one.
Thus, the plan for the grand opening celebration was finalized.
Everything was tensely prepared.
As the name suggests, a "flowery scene" (花團錦簇) is a decoration theme centered around flowers.
mn's office location was personally chosen by An Xiaonuan. As it's a fashion design company, she chose an office building in a very quiet area. The entire building has eight floors, and each office building is at least ten meters apart.
This area is specially prepared for high-growth companies that need a quiet environment, so An Xiaonuan directly designated three buildings here as offices.
The grand opening celebration is in the middle area of these three buildings.
An Xiaonuan had already visited the site before, so she wasn't surprised by anything there. However, Kong Mingming and Qiao Zhen, who were visiting for the first time, were so amazed that they couldn't close their mouths.
Among them, Ji Qing's reaction was the biggest: "My goodness, Xiao Nuan sister, you must have invested at least tens of thousands in this opening ceremony, right"
Wherever you look, there are fresh flowers, and they're real!
And these flowers weren't cheap either. At least within her limited understanding, a single flower from that row of bouquets displayed on the roadside would cost at least a few hundred yuan.
This is just one out of dozens, and this bouquet is just one among thousands. Roughly calculating, just purchasing these flowers has already cost…
A lot of money.
Ji Qing felt that she wasn't there to attend the opening ceremony, but rather to "experience the life of a wealthy person up close."
She was the youngest among the designers, and because she was brought in by An Xiaonuan herself, it was no surprise that she acted a little surprised. Instead, everyone found her cute and cheerful. However, Kong Mingming received much more hostility.
Actually, she didn't do much, but for some reason, she received the most hostility.
An Xiaonuan is not here right now, Qiao Zhen is the oldest among this group of people. She glanced at the chatty designers and said, “Expressing your amazement appropriately is also a skill in socializing. Since you guys enjoy chatting so much, why don't you go on stage for a duet”
When she spoke, her voice was soft and gentle, a smile still gracing her lips. She looked no different from the kind and graceful person she usually was, yet she successfully silenced all those designers.
Don't be fooled by Qiaozhen's designer appearance, she's actually the cruellest person there.
Her temperament is inversely proportional to her methods, often making people feel like she has two personalities.
Kong Mingming waved his hand dismissively and said to Qiao Zhen, "Thank you, Sister Zhen."
She sometimes felt that she was really useless, only knowing how to escape.
Kong Mingming was told that she would be going to MN Clothing Company the next day, and on that very day, she met Qiao Zhen through An Zong. She was conquered by Qiao Zhen's skilled craftsmanship and also liked her gentle and generous personality, so the two became good friends.
Qiaozhen patted A Kongming's arm and said, "Don't take it to heart. Just Mingming, you need to know that,
No turtle can escape being caught or eaten by hiding in its shell. You must keep swimming, swim out of enemy territory, to escape those dangers or things you dislike. Or you become stronger, making those dangers no longer dangerous.
I believe in you, go for it.
Qiao Zhen finished speaking and walked towards An Xiaonuan in front, leaving Kong Mingming alone standing there thinking.
She watched Qiao Zhen's back, her mind replaying her words over and over.
Before she could figure it out, another voice appeared on her right: “She’s right, you are a turtle.”
Kong Mingming was already very familiar with this sound. He didn't even need to turn his head to know who it was.
"Jia Hongda, be quiet."
I don't know when I got behind her, it's really annoying.
Jia Hongda looked at Kong Mingming's bright profile and said, "Be yourself, Kong Mingming."
Kong Mingming only then turned her head to look at him, and she saw the seriousness in his eyes and the slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
They had developed an unspoken understanding over the past week. Kong Ming wasn't sure if it was good or bad, but at least the divorce wasn't looking so straightforward anymore.
She was just about to ask what that meant when she heard someone shouting, "Mr. Jia!"
"You go first." Kong Ming said.
She might need some time to think this over alone.
Jia Hongda took out a loaf of bread from his pocket and put it in her hand, saying, "I know you probably didn't have breakfast. Have a bite to tide you over first so you don't faint from hunger later."
She usually spends her evenings painting. She goes to sleep whenever she finishes, so she generally doesn't wake up in the mornings and just eats whatever for breakfast if she does.
After staying at Jia Hongda's house for a few days, Jia Hongda discovered that she particularly liked sleeping in and had no habit of eating breakfast. Not only that, but she always carried stomach medicine with her.
After discovering this, Jia Hongda began to supervise Kong Mingming's breakfast.
During the days he stayed at his place, he could supervise her very conveniently. However, the past two days, Kong Mingming went back to live at home. He couldn't see if she was eating breakfast or not, so he came up with another brilliant idea: ordering breakfast delivery for her every morning.
Today is the third day of supervision.
However, because today was the opening ceremony, he was so busy that he didn't have time to order takeout. He could only buy a loaf of bread and put it in his pocket.
Kong Ming stared blankly at the cake in his hand, motionless.
She felt like everything was a mess right now.
Joe's words, Ja Hongda's words, and what Ja Hongda has been doing recently.
All of it constricted her heart.
It turns out that her seemingly well-organized life is actually so terrible
Originally, she thought her easygoing temper was actually weakness
What is she really likethings Is this really Sister Jinsxuan" Ye Ranxi asked in shock. 。It's her, there's no mistake. This time I can't be wrong. 。"Mo Qianqiu said in a low voice," 。An Xiaonuan stared at Ye Ranxi beside her...
