The next day will be sunny and the breeze will be just as the sun is not dry. The weather forecast shows that the daily maximum temperature will not exceed 29°C, and the whole day will be relatively comfortable and cool.

After the heavy rain, City Z took on a new look. The sky filled with clouds was clear, the streets were clean everywhere, and even the air was filled with a pleasant fresh smell. The heat and decay unique to summer gradually dissipated, replaced by comfort and refreshment.

The M&F studio officially starts working at nine o'clock, and only a few logistics staff will implement the clock-in system. The working hours of designers, assistants, etc. have always been flexible arrangements and will not be fixed forcibly. Just complete the task within the deadline.

Today is quite special, most of the employees have received notices to go to work on time, except for emergency situations where they can be absent, the rest must come, especially the key personnel.

Around 08:30, the Xiaoyang Building became active one after another. The first and second floors were very busy, and all the employees worked hard to prepare for the people from the AURORA Group.

This signing is particularly important for the entire studio, not only for the two bosses, but also for other people, and to a certain extent it can be regarded as a springboard for the career process.After all, once the contract is signed successfully, the resources that AURORA Group can provide will not be less, and the studio has reached a higher level, and the people below will naturally not be too bad.

Xiao Jiang and the others came here dressed up beautifully, and the slovenly ones also changed their outfits and came out on the stage. They even tidied up their desks one by one, doing it very decently, for fear that something might not be done well.

Fan Chuyu pinched over, adjusted a graceful mid-length skirt, and combed her hair meticulously.

The employees greeted Mr. Fan one after another, and they were no longer smiling like in the past, and their attitudes were very correct.

Fan Chuyu was still a little unaccustomed to it, and felt that the atmosphere was too dignified and awkward.She circled around the first and second floors, inspected the surroundings, confirmed that everything was in order, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Okay, don't be so nervous, just do what you need to do, let's relax a little bit." , It’s not going to the battlefield to fight, today I just signed a contract and went through the process, don’t be so serious.”

After inspecting the ground, Fan Chuyu went up to the third floor to find someone, and went straight to Mingshu's office.

Ming Shu is the calmest one in the whole studio, don't be too calm, don't worry at all, just woke up at this point, just took a shower in the lounge attached to the office, and is putting on makeup and hair at a leisurely pace.

The office is very messy, the table is scattered with draft paper, pens and some miscellaneous things, the chair is not in place, and there are many balls of paper on the ground-all useless waste manuscripts.

It was almost nine o'clock, and the curtains here were still tightly closed, only a big light was turned on on the top.

Fan Chuyu knocked on the door and went in. The first thing she saw was the overnight cold coffee on the table. She accidentally stepped on a ball of paper and almost lost her footing.She was very surprised, she had never seen Mingshu like this before, and it was when she was about to sign a new contract.Looking around in amazement, Fan Chuyu was almost speechless, and sighed after holding back for a long time: "My God, you are still drawing a fight, those who don't know think it's a robbery scene..."

Ming Shu was not very energetic, and her face was slightly pale due to staying up too late. She looked up at Fan Chuyu and explained: "I stayed here last night to draw pictures, and I haven't had time to clean up."

"Do you still remember what to do today?" Fan Chuyu asked, squatting down.He helped to pick up the paper balls, and cleaned up the garbage on the ground in two or three strokes.

Ming Shu hummed calmly, and replied, "I won't be here until three o'clock in the afternoon, so there's no rush."

Fan Chuyu was very angry, but she couldn't say anything more when she saw the draft on the table, she still felt sorry for this partner and close friend.Putting back the words that stuck in her throat, Fan Chuyu took a cup of warm water again, put it in front of Mingshu, and cleaned up the table by the way, and asked, "How are you getting ready? If you are too tired, you can go back and have a rest." For half a day, I can do it by myself in the afternoon, anyway, it’s just that both parties sign, and there are lawyers around, so it’s okay.”

"No, it's okay." Ming Shu said, drawing his eyebrows in front of the mirror while talking, "I didn't stay up all night, I still slept for so long last night."

Fan Chuyu asked: "Have you finished your meal?"

Mingshu replied: "Not yet."

After stacking up the drafts and putting them in the file folder, Fan Chuyu said, "Then don't put on lipstick for a while, eat something before doing it."

Mingshu replied, "Eat in a few minutes."

After sorting out the drafts, and then opened the curtains to let in the light, Fan Chuyu asked about the progress of the two guests from yesterday, and specifically mentioned the female boss.

Both of them were big customers, and the combined net profit of the two orders was six figures, so there was a lot of room for them to earn.Fan is always a businessman, and he has been calculating the price since he received the order, always thinking about earning a little more, so that he is worthy of the effort of the entire studio.

Mingshu told them all, but didn't mention that the female boss was testing her. She only said: "The design and workmanship of hers are more complicated, and it may take more time. Remember to increase the price by 10%."

Fan Chuyu asked: "The pictures are all drawn, so fast?"

"No, the drawing will be released next week," Ming Shu said casually, "It's just that there is already a rough idea, and the process is probably a little more complicated."

This is quite reasonable, and I can't fault it.

Fan Chuyu never doubted it, and made a gesture of yes, "Success, I will negotiate with that side at that time."

There was a lot of preparation in the morning, and the main venue for the reception was Mingshu's office on the third floor. In the evening, Secretary Zeng led someone in to clean it up, and handed over the documents to be used to Mingshu for another review.

At noon, Fan Chuyu spoke with Zhuang Qinian on behalf of the M&F studio, and contacted in advance to make sure that there would be no trouble with the AURORA Group.

The matter of Papa Ning has messed up the situation, and I'm afraid it will affect the work here, no one can say for sure.

Ming Shu didn't worry so much, and contacted Aunt Lin in private to ask about Ning Zhi's situation last night.

Aunt Lin said that everything was fine, and Ning Zhi was also fine. The child didn't seem to be in trouble. He was still playing games when the meal was delivered last night, and even invited two friends over to play.

Thinking it was Li Linze and Fang Yujing, Ming Shu couldn't help asking a few more questions.Aunt Lin said that they were two tall girls with faces from Eastern Europe, and they spoke English when they communicated.Ming Shu had never seen them before, and he didn't know who they were. After knowing that it wasn't Fang Yujing and the others, he didn't ask any more questions.

The time passed slowly from noon to three o'clock, and the old-fashioned wall clock on the wall turned every minute.

At this time, Ming Shu felt a little bit of anxiety, and was no longer so loose.

But it's not because I'm going to see Zhuang Qinian and the others, don't worry about it, it's just that I feel unreliable and unreal for no reason.

Counting from the beginning to the present, this cooperation is not easy, but it is not difficult, it seems to be confused from beginning to end.I thought there would be a "tough battle" to fight, but in the end it didn't take much effort, and it was much easier than expected.

Before the people from the AURORA Group arrived here, Ming Shu went to the balcony to blow some air, and after a while, he asked Secretary Zeng to help him tidy up his appearance.

Fan Chuyu stood on the sidelines watching, and said with a smile: "I said, you are very confident in the morning, and now you are so formal about what to do, which makes me a little nervous."

Mingshu ignored it, and just kept doing her own thing.

Fan Chuyu was annoying, and teased intentionally: "Your posture is like that, like meeting someone..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he stopped immediately, and suddenly remembered Ji Anli, knowing which pot was not opened and which pot to lift, he shut up with self-knowledge, and smiled embarrassingly again.

Mingshu glanced at him sharply, "Have you done everything well?"

"Okay, don't worry." Fan Chuyu said, "The arrangements are clear."

The closer the time is, the quieter the upstairs and downstairs will be.

People from the AURORA Group arrived 10 minutes earlier, and the formation was relatively low-key. Only two black commercial vehicles came.

Ning Zhi and Zhuang Qinian were in one car, and in the other car were lawyers and related group staff.

These people are all the right-hand men of Mrs. Ning. The old man is afraid that his granddaughter will suffer, so he can't wait to send all his confidants here.

Xiao Gui’s dress today is still the same as usual, he didn’t make a special appearance of a blind rich lady, nor did he wear any expensive clothing or accessories, it was simple and casual, only a short top with hot pants to show his figure , plus flat shoes, peaked cap, and even the accessories are the same, only the two basic earrings on the left ear.

Zhuang Qinian also dressed casually. He never wore a suit or leather shoes. He wore a white polo shirt and long trousers, a typical middle-aged man's outfit.

On the contrary, the other lawyers and their entourage were dressed in extremely formal clothes, all in suits and trousers, and they were neatly trimmed from top to bottom, as if they were going to attend an international conference.

Ming Shu and Fan Chuyu went downstairs to meet them in person, and they first walked through the venue to chat and exchange pleasantries.

Zhuang Qinian is more cordial than ever before, it's rare that he doesn't put on airs or put on airs.

Fan Chuyu is a sociable person. Whenever she sees someone, she goes up to shake hands, hosts the scene, introduces each other regardless of whether the two parties know each other, and said kindly: "Welcome Mr. Zhuang, welcome Miss Ning, welcome everyone, please come It’s been a while, this way please, let’s sit upstairs and talk, please come in please come in.”

Ming Shu stood beside Fan Chuyu, decent and dignified, when Ning Zhi appeared, he looked at this person calmly, and glanced at him from time to time.She neither told Zhuang Qinian that they had known Ning Zhi for a long time, nor did she pretend to be unfamiliar, with an ambiguous attitude.

Ning Zhi didn't take the initiative to mention it, and when shaking hands, he scratched Ming Shu's palm restlessly, but his face was extremely indifferent, and he pretended to say: "Boss Ming, Mr. Fan."

People from both parties went upstairs to discuss in the office.

Fan Chuyu talked while walking, asking Zhuang Qinian what he was busy with recently, mentioning cooperation from time to time, and even taking time to talk to Ning Zhi, coping with it with ease.

All the designers in the studio were present, and everyone came to meet Ning Zhi and get acquainted with each other.

It went very smoothly and there were no problems from start to finish.The relevant clauses were reviewed by the lawyers on both sides in advance, and neither of them had any objections, and it was time to sign when the negotiation was almost done.

Ming Shu sat across from Ning Zhi, with gentle brows and eyes, occasionally interrupted to say a few words, most of the time he just listened.

Zhuang Qinian was satisfied with all the matters, but he didn't express too many opinions during the whole process, it was the lawyer who spoke.

Of course, the more important reason was that Ning Zhi was at odds with him. His thoughts were not important at all, and the purpose of coming here this time was only to help sign the contract.

After all, it was outside, Ning Zhi would still give this uncle two points, and really didn't want to hear his rambling, so he played with his phone under the table and stretched his legs to the opposite side.

The table for talking is a long solid wooden table, not too wide, about a little more than one meter away, as long as you sit down, you can't see the scene under the table unless you bend your head down.

Ming Shu only saw that Ning Zhi was not in the mood to continue listening. He lowered his head while extending his hands to his hands, guessing that he was looking at his mobile phone, so he didn't take much precautions until he was kicked lightly on his toes.

She retracted her legs and moved back a little, not messing around with this kid.

Anyway, it is an important occasion, but it is not clear if it is discovered.

However, a certain person made a fuss on purpose, not only did not restrain himself, but also became more unreasonable, taking advantage of his long legs, and kicked Mingshu lightly.

Ming Shu's face was calm, without revealing anything, he only raised his eyelids to meet this man's gaze, and after meeting his eyes, he looked away as if nothing had happened.

The kid was addicted to playing, and he looked serious on the surface, but after a while he came up again and rubbed Mingshu's ankle again and again.

The sudden warmth and numbness hit, Ming Shuwan seemed to have been electrocuted in an instant, so she quickly avoided it, not letting her touch it.

Ning Zhi raised his head again, but looked at her straight, without shyness at all.

Ming Shu was calm and composed, and he didn't show anything wrong. He even answered the lawyer's question in a very serious tone, stating word by word, and said: "Our side was ready last month. , I will let Ms. Ning participate in several events, and attend the new clothing launch conference as a special guest. In the next year, I will handle all affairs related to Ms. Ning, and the specific details will also be sent to Take a look at Ms. Ning, the studio will fully respect and adopt Ms. Ning's personal wishes and ideas, and at the same time, take into account the school and arrange the time appropriately."

Zhuang Qinian nodded, looked through the contract again, and said with the demeanor of the elders of a big family, "We still have to focus on her studies, and nothing else comes first."

It should be because he didn't want to hear Zhuang Qinian farting hypocritically, so Ning Zhi rubbed his ears impatiently, and asked Zhuang Qinian politely: "There is no end, the contract has been finalized long ago, how long will we have to talk about it?"

Being asked straightforward questions by the juniors in front of so many people, Zhuang Qinian's face was not very good-looking, and he was a little embarrassed to come down from the stage.He just has a lot of things to do, and it was a straightforward process, but he had to make it look like he was signing some heavyweight contract, and it didn't end for half a day.

In fact, the lawyers and employees here also thought it was okay, but they couldn't say it directly.

Fan Chuyu winked, and immediately smoothed the field and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, there is one more detail that needs to be confirmed, and we can finish the discussion right away."

Ming Shu didn't join in, just observed the whole situation without changing his face, after a while, he touched under the table and kicked Ning Zhi's toes in turn, to signal the brat to be patient.

Ning Zhi reacted quickly, and glanced at Mingshu at that time, then hooked her foot, clamped it between her legs, and did not give way or let go.

The warning failed but was suppressed. Ming Shu didn't dare to make too much noise, fearing that he would be caught on the spot, so he could only let this person do what he wanted and not move.

The young man's body temperature was high, but after a while, Ming Shu felt a little hot, and the ankle was so warm that he couldn't ignore it.She struggled and wanted to get out, but she couldn't, she couldn't hold someone back.

Ning Zhi has great strength, not only easily suppressing her, but also rubbing against her nonsense.

The two were deadlocked under the table, and it didn't take long for Mingshu's high-heeled shoes to be squeezed out and fell to the ground.

There was a slight sound, and everyone present heard it.

Ming Shu clenched his hands tightly, but his face remained calm, without showing any expression that should not have been there.

Zhuang Qinian and the others were discussing and communicating, while Fan Chuyu was preoccupied with dealing with these people, no one noticed the movement here.

Only then did Ning Zhi restrain himself, and let go of his two straight legs.

Ming Shu quickly hooked the high heels back and retreated without a trace.

There is a little pain in the ankle, which is all thanks to the little curly hair who doesn't care about the occasion.Mingshu was angry for a while, but he couldn't do anything about it.

The cheeky guy on the opposite side was in a good mood, without any self-consciousness, and raised the corners of his mouth and raised his eyebrows.

Signing the contract is only one of the contents, both parties have negotiated, and Ming Shu and Fan Chuyu still have to take this pedestrian to visit each floor.

The studio set up a private rest room for Ning Zhi, with an area of ​​more than 30 square meters, located next to Ming Shu's work area, next to each other.The place is not too big, but the facilities inside are quite complete, including cloakroom, bed, tea cabinet, etc., taking into account the basic needs of rest, so it is no problem to come here for overnight or study.

Other models, whether they are full-time contracted or part-time, do not have this treatment. Those people share a changing room and rest room.

This is a "small stove" that Mingshu specially opened for Ning Zhi. On the one hand, he attaches importance to this person, and on the other hand, he also considers the future, so that it will be more convenient for Ning Zhi to come over to cooperate with the design in the future.

Ning Zhiyan was very satisfied with this, and said in a rare way: "It's not bad, you can enjoy the scenery upstairs."

Mingshu is in charge of showing them around, and it takes half an hour to walk around the third floor alone, the work area, the exhibition wall... These are Mingshu's exclusive territory, and it will be Ningzhi's work area in the future.

The second floor is where other designers are, and there are quite a lot of categories, while the first floor is not so chaotic and is mainly used for displaying works.

The rest went well.

Zhuang Qinian still had a banquet to attend in the evening, so he didn't have time to stay and continue, so Ning Zhi would handle the rest by himself.

The two parties had to have a meal, and M&F Studio, as the host, had to show due courtesy.

After Zhuang Qinian left, Fan Chuyu brought Ning Zhi up again, and asked Ning Zhi to communicate with other people in the studio.

Ming Shu went up and stood there for a while, and soon made room for them, knowing that his presence would make the employees even more uncomfortable, so she went upstairs first, and came down later, and also sent the employees of the AURORA Group away. Let them interfere with it.

Everyone else in the studio knew Ning Zhi, had received relevant instructions early in the morning, knew that there was such a person, and knew about Ning Zhi's situation and background, etc.

There were also a lot of young people in the store. Once Zhuang Qinian and the others left, everyone gradually relaxed and were quite willing to get in touch with Ning Zhi.The child is good-looking, with a stunning face and a good figure. Everyone likes her model, so they are more enthusiastic.

The atmosphere on the second floor was very harmonious. A group of people gathered together, chatting and exchanging contact information.

There are also several full-time models in the studio, and the models are all in their early twenties, so there is no generation gap in age.

Ming Shu rested upstairs enough, counting the time to go to the first floor to have a look.

The beauty at the front desk helped her sign for several couriers and a bunch of flowers. I don't know who sent the flowers.

Mingshu often received these things, and every once in a while, guests or unrelated people would send them, she didn't even look at them, she just asked who sent them.

The beauty at the front desk didn't know who to send the flowers to, but only said which flower shop it was.

Ming Shu didn't care much, and asked his assistant to dismantle the courier and tidy it up for himself, and then conveniently placed the flowers next to the potted plants as free decorations.

Ning Zhiwan went downstairs a few steps, surrounded by everyone, went down to the first floor to visit the works, and happened to come across this scene.

Passing by the potted plants, she lowered her eyes and glanced over the bouquet of hot red roses, and then she caught a glimpse of a small card pinned to the inside of the bouquet.

There was no love message on that little card, only a strong and powerful "Ji".

You don't have to guess who the flower sender is, you can tell at a glance.

The author has something to say: Thanks to the little angel who threw the landmine: lx9; just these 2;
