"Heh heh..."
Zhou Zidong's smug smile made Xia Xiaodie feel ridiculous.
Indeed, before coming here, she had great expectations for the ten drawings from Gelangqiao.
But now, after Xu Fan's words, Xia Xiaodie already felt that even more design drawings were rely superfluous.
For her, the greatest wealth would never be money.
At this mont, looking at Xu Fan, Xia Xiaodie was sowhat shaken about her idea of leaving Jinling.
Sister, I might, disappoint you...
Muttering in her heart, Xia Xiaodie no longer paid attention to Zhou Zidong.
Even if he was elated, Xia Xiaodie didn't care.
"Xu Fan, let's go."
"Mm."
Xu Fan nodded. Actually, at this mont they could still discuss with Gelangqiao, but it seed Xia Xiaodie no longer cared that much about it.
He also didn't want to waste more ti. Once he settled the major families in Shanghai, what would the Zhou Family count for?
By then, it would just be a matter of a single sentence to determine their fate.
"Humph, just freaking pretending..."
Watching Xu Fan escort Xia Xiaodie towards the main entrance, Zhou Zidong couldn't help but snort coldly.
He didn't take it too much to heart; with a victor's smile on his face, he spread his arms and walked towards Gelangqiao.
"Qiao, to celebrate our cooperation, you must listen to my arrangents after today's reception ends. I will entertain you well and fulfill the duties of a host!"
"Uh..."
It should have been a warm embrace of pleasant cooperation, but what Zhou Zidong didn't expect was Gelangqiao unexpectedly dodging it.
Zhou Zidong awkwardly grinned and asked, "Uh, Qiao, what's wrong?"
At this mont, Gelangqiao wasn't paying any attention to Zhou Zidong, just staring off into the distance, seemingly watching sothing.
Called by Zhou Zidong, he then ca back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I was distracted just now."
Zhou Zidong laughed openly, failing to notice the urgency in Gelangqiao's eyes, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, Qiao. Look, the contract is already signed, should we enjoy the rest of the event together?"
"Uh, this…"
Gelangqiao's face showed embarrassnt and more urgency, he awkwardly said, "Zhou, can we delay this a bit? I have an urgent matter now. Once I take care of it, I will co and find you!"
"Hmm?"
Zhou Zidong was startled.
As soon as Gelangqiao finished speaking, he fixed his gaze on Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie, who were about to exit the hall, and quickly chased after them.
"Both of you! Please wait!"
Gelangqiao's voice was urgent and forceful! Not only Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie, but all the people around them turned to look because of his call to wait.
Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie hadn't yet realized that he was calling them, but as more and more gazes gathered on them and the footsteps behind them grew increasingly urgent, they quickly stopped.
Turning around with Xia Xiaodie, Xu Fan saw Gelangqiao rushing toward them and couldn't help but frown in puzzlent.
This guy, hadn't he already signed a contract with Zhou Zidong?
Why was he in such a hurry to chase after himself?
Soon, Gelangqiao had run up to him, running so hastily that he started to pant ssily as he stopped.
Xu Fan smiled slightly and asked, "Gelangqiao, what brings you here?"
After catching his breath for a bit, Gelangqiao barely managed to catch his breath and awkwardly smiled, "Sir, I really liked the point you made just now, it was very helpful to . I have an unusual request, I wonder if you would be willing to help ?"
"Hmm? What is it?"
Gelangqiao looked very sincere, and under Xu Fan's curious gaze, he gestured for him to continue.
Gelangqiao nodded and explained, "I might as well be straightforward with you. I secluded myself for a year to find creative inspiration, but after a year, I still couldn't find the feeling I wanted. However..."
At this point, Gelangqiao beca excited, and he laughed, "Your and this beautiful lady's performance just now made understand what the true essence of love is! I feel like the inspiration I lost is coming back! I can create jewelry that I am proud of again!"
"Look, would you be willing to collaborate with ? I would like to design so jewelry exclusively for the two of you? For free! I just purely want to complete my interpretation of love in jewelry, that's all!"
"What?"
Gelangqiao didn't know, but his earnest request instantly stirred up excitent among the people around.
Gelangqiao was actually volunteering to design jewelry for soone?
Oh my God! This had never happened before!
You should know, many prominent people had approached Gilbert trying to get him to design a piece of jewelry just for them, but Gelangqiao had ruthlessly turned them down.
This guy, to be able to get Gelangqiao to voluntarily offer to design jewelry, and for free?
This...
Everyone imdiately shook their heads in unison, their faces filled with disbelief.
This guy had really encountered a falling pie from the sky...
If it were , I would surely accept without hesitation!
"Uh... this..."
Xu Fan was still hesitant, and after thinking for a while, he looked towards Xia Xiaodie next to him and said, "Such matters, the most important thing is to listen to the opinion of this beautiful lady by my side. If she agrees, I naturally have no objections."
Xu Fan, unmoved by his status, maintained his composed deanor—neither servile nor overbearing, neither joyful nor sorrowful — and Gelangqiao, observing this, found the man from the Eastern country even more intriguing.
After curiously observing him a few tis, Gelangqiao's gaze then turned towards Xia Xiaodie beside him, and he respectfully asked, "Beautiful Miss, may I have the honor to design so jewelry for you?"
Xia Xiaodie, holding Xu Fan's arm, smiled slightly and said without hesitation, "Of course, that's no problem."
After all, being a woman, Xia Xiaodie always had a soft spot for shiny things, let alone products designed by a top designer like Gelangqiao.
Now, thanks to Xu Fan, soone was pleading to design for her, why wouldn't she be thrilled?
Upon obtaining Xia Xiaodie's agreent, Gelangqiao's face lit up with excitent, like a child!
Perhaps that's how people dedicated to one thing are, being able to advance further in their focused fields is always an exciting event for them.
"So beautiful Miss, do you think we can start discussing now, to facilitate my creativity?"
At this mont, Gelangqiao couldn't wait to sit down with them both and chat, eager to start designing the jewelry as soon as possible, as for Zhou Zidong nearby?
He couldn't care less!
