Chapter 352 Mainly Because I’m Lazy

Yang Ying burst out laughing:

"I told you to pretend, and you got scolded by the students."

Zhou Ruhai was choked for a moment and said helplessly:

"You won't even give me a chance to pretend?"

He Nanxi finally understood that Zhou Ruhei had the personality of a child.

No wonder his designs are so unique.

Apart from the previous incident, they had no connection at all, and they had never even met before.

Then why did you choose her as your student?

"Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. Our Zhou family is a family of designers, and we've always passed down the family line from generation to generation. I'm the only one left in my generation, but your sister Yang and I are DINKs, so heirlooms have to be passed down. Otherwise, when I go there in the future, I won't know how to explain it to them."

He Nanxi remained silent.

This reason seems to have something to it.

"Then why me? I don't seem to be particularly outstanding, and my main job now is photography. No matter how you choose, it shouldn't be me. If a master like you wants to take students, there should be countless people vying for your apprenticeship."

Zhou Ruhai and Yang Ying looked at each other, and the latter smiled and said:

"It seems his recommendation was correct. You're really smart, Old Zhou. Your students are a bit hard to fool, aren't they?"

He Nanxi's eyes darkened a little.

he?

who is he?

Zhou Ruhai still had that smile on his face, and he didn't seem surprised that He Nanxi would ask this:

"I owed someone a favor back then. He told me that I was your idol and wanted me to take you in as my student."

He Nanxi was puzzled: "Who is that person?"

"I can't tell you. He won't let me tell you. I promised him to keep it a secret."

He Nanxi felt even more doubtful.

Who is it?

Could it be my uncle? Or my grandparents?

But no one in the He family has any relationship with Zhou Ruhai.

If he really knew Zhou Ruhai, he would not have waited until now to introduce them to each other, let alone keep it a secret.

She couldn't think of the outcome, but she was already prepared.

All gifts were secretly marked with prices.

"I'm sorry, Brother Zhou, I don't like to owe favors to others because I don't know how much it will cost me to repay this favor. Although I really want to learn from you, I don't dare."

Zhou Ruhai didn't expect that he would be rejected so bluntly by He Nanxi, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Don't be so quick to reject me. I want to take you in as a student not just because of this favor."

He Nanxi didn't say anything, just looked at them quietly.

She was scared of being cheated. Although she was really reluctant to let go, she was afraid that something strange would happen in the future.

"The few changes you made to my design really piqued my curiosity. I saw extraordinary creativity in you, which is why I wanted to meet you. You're right. If I wanted to take in students, with Mr. Z's reputation, I could easily accept any student. But why, in my fifties, have I still not accepted any apprentice? Do you know why?"

He Nanxi shook his head.

The top designers in the industry all take in apprentices, but there has never been any news of Mr. Z taking in apprentices over the years.

Others thought he was low-key or mysterious, and accepted it but did not make it public.

But he really didn't accept any disciples.

"Why?"

He Nanxi followed up on his question, waiting for him to continue.

"It's mainly because I'm lazy."

He Nanxi: ...

My pants are already taken off, and you're telling me this?

Yang Ying: "What he said is indeed true. He is very lazy. Otherwise, how could he only produce two or three works in a year?"

The corners of He Nanxi's mouth twitched.

I originally thought it was about striving for excellence, or hunger marketing or something like that.

Turns out it was just because of laziness?

Okay, okay, Guo is really a naughty old boy.

Zhou Ruhai looked at He Nanxi's constipated expression and actually felt happy.

"Not only am I lazy, I'm also afraid of trouble. Plus, I have to keep my wife company. Let me tell you, your sister Yang has a wide range of interests. If she wants to ski, she'll immediately leave for Switzerland. If she wants to learn piano, she'll go find a famous teacher and ask them to take her in. Last year, she saw someone making flower arrangements and thought they were so cool, so she spent several months learning, though she ultimately didn't master it."

Yang Ying glared at him, but Zhou Ruhai pretended not to see it.

"So I haven't accepted any students in all these years. After all, I don't know where I'll be next week, so I can't finish teaching at all."

He Nanxi understood.

"I see."

"But you're different!"

Zhou Ruhai slapped his thigh and said, "Your sister Yang has a mission in China soon, which will probably take several months to complete. I just happen to have time to teach you. Isn't this a coincidence? We must be destined to be master and apprentice."

He Nanxi: "...What a fate."

She couldn't refute it.

"Aren't you afraid that I'm stupid, foolish, and morally corrupt, and that I'm bringing disgrace upon my school?"

"Nanxi, I felt very comfortable the first time I saw you. Besides, with that person guaranteeing you, I don't think you are a morally corrupt person."

Yang Ying's tone was sincere, but she was still wary of the person He Nanxi was talking to.

She didn't believe that the other party had no ulterior motives in giving her such a good opportunity.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

Zhou Ruhai: "You can make creative changes to my work, how can you be stupid and dumb? If you are stupid, then others should not live."

He Nanxi pursed her lips: "To be honest, you guys really impressed me, but I'm not sure what the person you're talking about would ask me to do because of this."

"He won't let you do anything, and he won't have any bad intentions towards you."

He Nanxi smiled bitterly: "But you guys won't tell me, how should I know?"

Yang Ying: "Don't worry, he said he owes you this, so just bear with it."

A flash of inspiration flashed through He Nanxi's mind:

"Fu Ciyan?"

Yang Ying and Zhou Ruhai's faces froze instantly.

He Nanxi knew that he had guessed right.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand. It was Aurora Customization that contacted Mr. Z, and Aurora Customization is Fu Ci Yan's industry.

The Fu family is wealthy and powerful, so it is very likely that Mr. Z will owe them a favor.

Zhou Ruhai and Yang Ying looked at each other.

I didn't expect it to be guessed right away.

"Nanxi, you are really smart."

He Nanxi lowered his eyes:

"He's the only one who could say that."

What's owed or not? Can what Fu Ci Yan owes him be compensated by these things?

Those things have become the past, can they really be made up for?

"Then...Xiao He, are you still willing to be my student?"

Zhou Ruhai finally met a young man who was popular with both he and his wife, and he was reluctant to give up.

He Nanxi curled his lips:

"Of course I'm willing to do such a good thing."
