Mu Qingning.
The winner of the 10th place in the recently concluded "Shaoguang" competition.
They were also challengers to Xie Chenlu, and both of them scored a high score of 9.88 to advance to the finals. Contestant number 026 was also among them.
In addition to this, she has another identity.
The little princess of the Mu family in Shanghai.
The Mu family made their fortune in real estate. The tycoon, Mu Zhinan, dotes on his wife. Because she loves jewelry, he founded Yixin Jewelry, a well-known domestic jewelry brand.
Yiyan Jewelry Design Studio was prepared by President Mu for his daughter.
Originally, I thought Mu Qingning was just someone who would only be interested for a short time, so I just needed a place for her to pass the time.
But President Mu did not expect that his daughter, who had started her career later in life, would make such rapid progress.
After all, Mu Qingning's dream used to be to become a star.
After studying acting for four years at the Beijing Film Academy, Mu Qingning didn't enter the entertainment industry after graduation. Instead, she plunged into Yiyan Jewelry Studio.
Everyone in the studio says that Mu Qingning is talented and is progressing rapidly.
Mr. Mu thought that it was the studio staff flattering and praising his daughter.
Unexpectedly, the entire studio was wiped out in the "Shaoguang" jewelry design competition.
Only Mu Qingning was brought back to the competition by Ye Li, and then made it to the finals, where she achieved a 10th place finish.
The staff were stunned.
President Mu was also stunned.
At this moment, Ye Li and the others were stunned.
At the reception desk, a pretty girl dressed in a linen suit with a fresh, natural style looked at Ye Li and asked, "Ms. Ye, is your studio still hiring?"
"I...I confessed."
Ye Li nodded, looking at Mu Qingning with disbelief, "Don't you already have your own studio?"
Isn't it better to work for yourself?
Why bother working at someone else's studio?
Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?
Mu Qingning smiled playfully.
Ye Li smiled.
Mu Qingning laughed and said, "The lie is that Ye Li's staff are full of talented people, more suitable for me than Yi Yan. The truth is, I... I'm here to learn from them!"
Her gaze swept past the glass door of the workroom, past the aloof figure typing on the computer, and Mu Qingning said with a regretful expression, "I came here to learn from Master Xie. I emailed him a few years ago, wanting to become his apprentice, but he refused, saying he no longer accepts disciples."
In fact, rejections in emails are much harsher.
Xie Chenlu said that he had already given up jewelry design and told her to find someone else.
He was ruthless in his comments on the several designs she sent to his email for his feedback: "You're not suited for jewelry design. Change your major!"
On one side are idols to be worshipped.
On one hand, there's the idol's ruthless rejection and harsh criticism.
No one knows what Mu Qingning sacrificed.
Fortunately, the results after several years of hard work are quite satisfactory.
Now, she finally has the right to stand before him.
Once they became colleagues, she could openly learn from their skills.
"I want to design a piece that I can be proud of, and give it to my mother on the anniversary of her death in the future."
"Because she really loves beautiful jewelry. If she knew it was designed especially for her by her beloved daughter, I think she would be very happy in heaven!"
Mu Qingning looked at Ye Li, her words sincere.
Mr. Mu and his wife's loving relationship is well-known among the wealthy families in Shanghai.
Ye Li heard this admirable yet heartbreaking love story when she started studying jewelry design and researching major domestic and international jewelry brands.
Yixin Jewelry was founded for her.
Yiyan Jewelry Studio said it was for their daughter, and the name is full of remembrance and love for their wife.
Widowed for five years, Mr. Mu not only did not remarry, but he also never dated a girlfriend.
He rarely attends the company's annual meeting, but he always attends Yixin Jewelry's annual celebrations, grand opening sales, or large-scale events like 618 and Double 11.
Ye Li likes earnest people.
That President Mu was deeply affectionate and devoted.
Mu Qingning is obedient and filial.
Not to mention, she's a professional in jewelry design.
Ye Li smiled and extended her hand, "Qing Ning, welcome to Ye Li Studio!"
Before coming, I anticipated many difficulties. However, since she is the little princess of Yixin Jewelry and has her own jewelry studio, no studio would accept her without any distractions.
To Mu Qingning's surprise, Ye Li agreed so readily.
"Ye Li..."
With Ye Li holding her hand, Mu Qingning asked curiously, "I already told you I came here to learn from you, do you still want me?"
"Of course!"
Ye Li smiled.
Looking back at Xie Chenlu, who remained unmoved, her eyes were full of mischief. "A brain will rust if it's not used. It's good to urge the master to move around more! If you steal it, it's yours; if the studio makes a profit, it's mine. It's a win-win situation!"
Is that even possible?
Everything went so smoothly it felt like a dream, and Mu Qingning was still in a daze when Ye Li pulled her into the workroom.
First, let's welcome our new colleague.
Let's review the two matches again.
During a break, Mu Qingning slipped into the elevator to call her father.
"Dad, do you know Ye Li?"
"I don't know him."
"Do you know Ye Li's parents?"
"I don't know them either."
"Then how do you know that Ye Li will definitely want me?"
"I don't know Ye Li, but I do know that Master Fu from the capital. He's young, shrewd, and resourceful... Ningning, birds of a feather flock together. A man like Master Fu can't possibly choose the wrong woman!"
