Ye Li had just finished drying her hair when she received Luo Changchuan's call.
On the other end of the phone, Luo Changchuan's voice was clear and bright, "President Ye, my darling isn't feeling well, could he/she take three days off to rest?"
Startled by his shameless use of "my darling," Ye Li laughed, "President Luo, if you didn't talk like that, we could have a pleasant discussion."
"Then, my Yi Yi?"
"..."
Ye Li rolled her eyes in a very unladylike manner.
The next moment, Wan Mingyi snatched the phone away.
Upon hearing Wan Mingyi say that she had sprained her ankle and the doctor said she shouldn't move around for the next few days, Ye Li readily granted her leave. "Didn't we agree that you could work from home? Mingyi, you should rest well. You can go back to the studio whenever you're all better."
“But Shieh only arrived at the studio today…”
"It's alright. Leave it to me, don't worry!"
I assured her repeatedly that she could handle it and that she could focus on recovering.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Li sent Xie Chenlu a WeChat message.
The next afternoon, Ye Li went to Jingyue Building again, and as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she was stunned.
Outside the glass door, the snow-white wall is now covered with spontaneous graffiti full of artistic flair.
Against the backdrop of the antique plaque by the door, it exudes an artistic vibe.
Just one corridor gives you the feeling of entering an art gallery.
Is this... still her studio?
As Ye Li pushed open the door, she hadn't even managed to call out "idol" yet.
Behind the reception desk, a young woman in a beige dress stood up abruptly. "Hello, welcome to Ye Li Studio. Miss, who are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?"
!!
Ye Li was stunned. "I...I am Ye Li."
The fairy was also taken aback for a moment, then broke into a bright smile, "Good afternoon, boss!"
"Who are you……"
Ye Li asked, puzzled.
The office door next door opened, and Xie Chenlu came out. "Ye Li, this is my niece. She finished her college entrance exams and has nothing to do, so she plays video games at home every day. I'm thinking of having her work as a receptionist at the company, so she can enjoy the air conditioning and play games. It's a no-salary job, is that okay?"
Of course!
Amazing!!!
"Yes, yes!"
Ye Li nodded repeatedly, waving to the fairy, "Go ahead and play, just don't drag your teammates down... And also, feel free to eat all the snacks in the break room!"
Following Xie Chenlu to the office area, I saw four young people, some drawing design drafts and others typing on their keyboards.
I initially thought the office area was quite spacious.
In the blink of an eye, a strong office atmosphere washes over you.
Ye Li's eyes shone brightly.
Knowing that these were Xie Chenlu's four disciples, Ye Li looked at Xie Chenlu again, her eyes immediately lighting up with excitement. "Idol, you're amazing! I knew I'd struck gold! These four are..."
"Three people!"
Xie Chenlu pointed to the young man with a weak and scholarly demeanor by the window and said, "That's a fellow caveman I met under the overpass. He doesn't have any ambitions in life. He comes to the office to clean and pick up and drop off packages or something. I provide him with three meals a day. As for him, he continues to be a lazy bum."
"These three..."
Xie Chenlu pointed to the three young men and women who had stood up and said, "Morning, Ling Xiaohan, and Yan Ziqing, three good-for-nothing disciples. Two more are on their way."
The three men showed no displeasure at being called useless by Xie Chenlu; instead, a faint sense of shame flickered in their eyes as they looked at Xie Chenlu.
But in the blink of an eye, the shame vanished, leaving only a trace of rebuttal.
It's as if it's saying: Master, do you know what it means when the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked?
"Morning..."
Ye Li looked at the quirky and clever girl, "Hello, welcome to Ye Li Studio. From now on, we're family!"
Morning smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Ye. My name is Mo Ning, and my English name is Morning. I was just a resigned administrative supervisor."
Ye Li was taken aback.
Ling Xiaohan smiled, "Hello boss, I'm my master's last disciple. I'm the interior designer who resigned yesterday. If you need any decoration services in the future, I can recommend a reliable person to you."
Yan Ziqing, the oldest and the most composed, said, "Hello, Mr. Ye. I'm Yan Wu, a stay-at-home mom. Besides jewelry design, I also have some knowledge of clothing design. Please feel free to ask if you need anything."
Ye Li was stunned.
Take a look at Xie Chenlu.
Then look at these three so-called apprentices in front of me who have other talents besides jewelry design.
Ye Li inexplicably felt like she'd hit the jackpot in a blind box.
Remembering that Ling Xiaohan had said he was his last disciple, Ye Li turned back to Xie Chenlu and asked, "Idol, how many disciples have you taken in total?"
"Seven."
A fleeting look of melancholy crossed Xie Chenlu's face as he said in a deep voice, "Besides those five, there are two others who are now developing their careers abroad. You should have the opportunity to meet them in the future."
Although they didn't know who the two people were, just by looking at the expressions of Xie Chenlu, Morning, and the other two, they knew there was more to the story.
Ye Li wisely refrained from asking further questions.
Ye Li readily handed over the position of Chief Design Director to Xie Chenlu, trusting those she employs and not employing those she distrusts.
Xie Chenlu didn't refuse and assigned tasks to everyone in just a few words.
Even the so-called cave friend named Lao Qiu got up and left during their meeting, only to return with a tray of freshly brewed coffee.
He took a sip of the rather delicious coffee and looked at Xie Chenlu, who was writing and drawing in front of the whiteboard.
Ye Li seemed lost in thought for some reason.
She and Wan Mingyi are partners in the studio.
Xie Chenlu is the chief designer and design director.
