Resuming a life alone, Shang Yiluan no longer likes to go to the mall, she wakes up early in the morning with nothing to do, and drives the car to the door of the pizzeria without knowing it.

It was still early, and the store hadn't opened yet. Shang Yiluan took the key to open the door, and sat alone in the deserted store.

On a special day like today, I wonder if the business in the store will be better?

"Hello? Hello landlord, I would like to discuss with you about renewing the lease." The lease of the store is coming to an end. Although the net profit in the first year is not very impressive, Shang Yiluan will keep this store no matter what. shop.At least, until Liu Yifeng came back.

"Huh? Renew the lease? Ah, Mr. Shang?"

"Well, it's me. I want to rent this store from you for another year." She said timidly, although Shang Yiluan wanted to renew the lease for three years, but she really didn't have that much money.

"Uh, I'm not very convenient recently, so let's wait until March, let's talk in March, okay?"

"You, don't you want to rent again?" The landlord's words sounded a bit secretive, and Shang Yiluan had a bad feeling.

"Ah, no, no, no, I'm just inconvenient recently, don't worry, I will renew the lease with you when I have time."

"Oh, then I'll wait for your news."

"Well, see you later."

The landlord hung up the phone hastily, and Shang Yiluan stared at the phone screen in a daze.If the landlord doesn't renew the lease and she doesn't have the ability to buy the store, wouldn't Liu Yifeng's hard work be ruined in her hands?

-----------------------------------

"Huh? Why are there flower sellers everywhere?" Having breakfast with Bai Wei, Liu Yifeng was confused by the children selling flowers all over the street.

"Stupid you! Today is Valentine's Day~"

"what?"

"Ah, what, today is February 2th. For romantic Italians, this is almost the most important day of the year." Seeing the romantic atmosphere all over the street, Bai Wei smiled nicely.

"Unexpectedly, it was Valentine's Day just a few days after I came here..." Thinking of Shang Yiluan at home, Liu Yifeng felt a little guilty. During this time, she has been busy with planning and forgot to prepare a Valentine's Day gift for that person .

"What? Missed her?" Bai Wei asked carefully. She was indeed a sinner for separating a couple of lovers by 9000 kilometers on such a romantic festival. "I didn't think about it that much at the time. If I had known it earlier, I would have asked you to spend the New Year with her before inviting you..." Liu Yifeng was driven away by Shang Yiluan before the statutory holidays were over, which was really unreasonable.

"It's not your fault, it's my fault, it's all my fault for being too impetuous and unable to live a stable life." Liu Yifeng knew that there was a bear living in her heart, and she couldn't live the same life like ordinary people.

"Brother, buy a flower for my sister~"

"Huh?" The little flower seller interrupted her train of thought, "What did she just say?"

"She said, 'Brother, buy a flower for my sister'~" Bai Wei translated to Liu Yifeng verbatim.

"Brother? Am I a brother?"

"In Italy, there are too few women in gender neutral dress like you, not to mention, you don't have breasts~" Bai Wei pointed to Liu Yifeng's flat chest, she is indeed easy to be misunderstood by others.

"Brother, why don't you just buy one~"

"Little sister, come here, my sister will buy you two flowers and give you money~"

"Thank you sister~" The little flower seller excitedly went to another table to sell. Liu Yifeng also smiled when he saw her figure.

"Here~I'll send you a flower~" Bai Wei held one in her left hand, and gave the flower in her right hand to Liu Yifeng, "Let's take it as compensation~"

Accepting Bai Wei's red rose, Liu Yifeng felt a little uncomfortable again.

------------------------------------

It is rare to choose a person to go out at night in such a festive atmosphere. Shang Yiluan came to the KTV that she and Liu Yifeng used to frequent.The same box, the same music equipment, but the person is missing.

After ordering a lot of wine, Shang Yiluan started a carnival by himself.

"Ocean sapart, day after day

But it doesn't stop the pain

"Liu Yifeng, I will be right here, Waiting for you."

---------------- Lantern Festival ---------------

"Hurry up, come out and eat glutinous rice balls~" Liu Yifeng was studying ancient books and materials at his desk, when Bai Wei pushed the door open and waved to her happily.

"Huh? Cooking glutinous rice balls in the studio?" Seeing the pots in the rest hall, Liu Yifeng felt a little strange.

"In the past, we used to do this every year. We sat around eating glutinous rice balls and watching the Lantern Festival." Mei Li explained to Liu Yifeng as he served a bowl of glutinous rice balls.

"What stuffing? I like black sesame."

"This is from black sesame, and that pot is from Wuren."

"Oh, that's fine."

"After all, black sesame is the choice of most people." Bai Wei took a spoon and sat next to Liu Yifeng, waiting for the Lantern Festival to start.

"This is the first time I've watched a webcast, and I'm still abroad~" Liu Yifeng sighed while blowing the glutinous rice balls in the spoon.

"Yeah, if you're not abroad, you can watch the live broadcast on TV at home."

"How many Lantern Festivals have you spent abroad?" Seeing Bai Wei's expression of emotion, Liu Yifeng couldn't help asking.Unlike the New Year, I am afraid that the vast majority of people who work outside will not be able to celebrate the Lantern Festival at home.

"It seems to me that I haven't celebrated the Lantern Festival at home since I came here to study abroad. After all, there is no Lantern Festival in Italy." Bai Wei kept playing with the round glutinous rice balls in the bowl, feeling a little depressed.

"Let's work hard for a few more years. We will strive to launch the brand in the shortest possible time, so that we can all return to our hometown."

"Well, let's work together~"

The sudden news break caused everyone present to fall into silence, and the originally cheerful atmosphere disappeared.

"This is, Lafayette?" Liu Yifeng looked at this strange yet familiar face on the screen, feeling a little inconceivable.

"The Emperor of Fashion is dead... Karl is dead..." Bai Wei stared at the TV screen, unable to believe it was true.

"The day after tomorrow is the Fendi Milan fashion show, how come..."

"That is to say, the press conference the day after tomorrow is Lafayette's last design?" At the time when the whole world is busy for Milan Fashion Week, the great Karl Lagerfeld passed away...

Everyone was immersed in a deep atmosphere of sadness, only Liu Yifeng didn't understand.

"He is 85 years old. He has dedicated 64 years of his life to the fashion industry. He is tired..." Mei Li put her hands on Bai Wei's shoulders to show her comfort. Karl is a gift from God to the fashion industry. His death is undoubtedly a heavy blow to those who are engaged in this industry.

"First from Givenchy last year, and then Karl this year, how come the great designers who have experienced the heyday of fashion have left one by one? They are the pinnacles of the fashion industry!" Bai Wei cried out of breath, For her, Carl's death was like a loss of her spirituality.

"Uh, I don't know what he did, and I don't know what his death means, but I just listened to your narration, and I have a few words to say." Liu Yifeng moved his chair, knelt down on one knee, piously looking at Bai Wei's face.

"You say that he is the pinnacle of the fashion industry, but don't we just want to be like him? Don't we just want to be the vane of the fashion industry?"

Liu Yifeng's short words of comfort made Bai Wei wake up like a dream, looking at Liu Yifeng seriously with teary eyes, waiting for her next words.

"The emperor of fashion is gone, isn't the current fashion industry in need of a new leader? Bai Wei, let me tell you clearly right now that his position will be inherited by you!"

"Me?" Bai Wei shook her head in confusion, "Karl Lagerfeld stepped into the fashion industry at the age of 21 and worked as a designer for 4 brands. He is proficient in 4 languages. , stationery and countless other industries... He is not only an excellent designer, he is also a shrewd businessman. Without him, Chanel would not be so successful in the world... Not to mention, his photography So talented... how can I compare him to such a proud man?" Bai Wei knew that Liu Yifeng was just comforting her, but she knew how much she weighed, and Karl became Chloe's designer at the age of 14. But on the contrary, she had announced the bankruptcy of her first self-owned brand before the age of 32.

"No success does not mean failure! You just haven't succeeded yet! You are only 31 years old now, how many people can own a three-story studio at this age and do what they like every day?" Liu Yifeng was a little excited , the tone even had a hint of hatred for iron.

"Believe in yourself, you are a very good designer, you just lack experience in marketing! But, don't you have me now? Didn't I come here? Didn't I come to give you a marketing solution? What are you afraid of? Isn’t there a common saying that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang? What’s more, besides you and me, we have such an excellent team! Are you still afraid that we will not succeed? If we fail in one year, it will be ten years! If you fail once, try a second time! What are you afraid of?"

Being overwhelmed by Liu Yifeng's head-covering roar, Bai Wei froze on the spot and stopped crying long ago.

Realizing that he was a little too emotional just now, Liu Yifeng was a little embarrassed, "Uh, I'm sorry, I scared you just now..." Kneeling back to the original place, Liu Yifeng begged Bai Wei's forgiveness.

"No, thank you~" Bai Wei suddenly hugged her vigorously, but now Liu Yifeng froze in place.

"Thank you for letting me wake up, thank you!" Yes, with Liu Yifeng joining, Bai Wei did not believe that she would not succeed this time.

---------------------------------

"After get off work, what are you busy with?"

"I watched all the Chanel shows over the years today. You are right, Karl is indeed a genius." Liu Yifeng rubbed her eyes, she was indeed a little tired from looking at the computer all day.

"Have you been inspired by anything?"

"As I have always told you, I was not born in this industry, and my family background did not allow me to have the opportunity to touch luxury goods. I only started to pay attention to luxury goods after I fell in love with Shang Yiluan, because I I am eager to know more about her. I try my best to understand and find out the prices of all the clothes, pants, shoes, and bags that appear on her body. That’s when I started to pay attention to the press conferences of major brands on TV. , and among the 33 shows I have seen today, only Space Rocket Base is the one I have seen, and this is also the one with the most beautiful stage set among all the press conferences I have seen before. But today I After watching these 33 shows carefully, I realized that my previous knowledge of show design was too shallow... For example, in the relatively recent 2019 spring and summer advanced ready-to-wear series, the design of this beach is Is it enough to make me give a thumbs up and use hundreds of tons of white sand to build a mini beach indoors? My God! The show can still be played like this?” After seeing these breathtaking show designs by Lafayette, Liu Yifeng suddenly found that she was interested in The definition of fashion is biased.

"Sea water flooding the beach? Lifeguards? Boardwalk? This is not just a press conference? It's like setting up a studio!"

"Yeah, on October 10nd, when I saw this show, I was amazed again and again. I can't learn Lafayette's talent..." Although I didn't receive an invitation, Lafayette's show Baiwei None of them were absent.

"There's also the nautical series, the residual wall series, and the underwater world series... these show designs are too beautiful, aren't they?" Liu Yifeng was so amazed by the set that he even wanted to cry, not focusing on the models.

"You know what I see on TV are all very random shows, renting a venue, setting up a runway, and then the models go up there, and I even saw the show on the outdoor square! Even a spotlight None! So I always thought that the blueprint in my head was too big to be suitable for a fashion show in just a few minutes..."

"what about now?"

"I was completely shocked, and I am more confident to do a good job of our show! If Chanel can do it, why can't we? I must let our show shock the whole world, and I want our show to become the benchmark of the entire industry! "

Influenced by Liu Yifeng's self-confidence, Bai Wei completely forgot the sadness of Lafayette's departure. Liu Yifeng was right, the current fashion industry is short of a leader, and she is going to work hard for this goal.
