The car slowly stopped in front of the hotel. Li Weiya turned off the engine and got out of the car, and immediately saw Jiang Xia standing at the door waiting for her.
"Why did you come out to pick me up yourself?" she said with a smile.
"It's only natural for students to pick up their teachers."
Li Weiya smiled and asked, "They're all here?"
"Yes, I've said everything I needed to say. Now we're just waiting for you to begin the meal," Jiang Xia nodded.
"Hey, you guys eat first, why are you waiting for me?" (Reading a book)
"That won't do."
The two chatted and laughed as Jiang Xia led them to a private room. Pushing open the door and walking in, Wang Ming was stunned when he saw his mother. Good heavens, so this was his mother? No wonder Jiang Xia's gaze had been so meaningful earlier.
"Let me introduce you to Li Weiya, my teacher. She has been working in the field of art for more than ten years and will be serving as the project director of Qitian Animation Company starting today. Please welcome her."
After Jiang Xia finished speaking earnestly, enthusiastic applause erupted.
Shen Ying blinked unconsciously. A super big shot in the art industry for more than ten years! She never expected that the boss would be able to find such a talent. It seems that the company must be making a big move soon. She was really looking forward to it.
Moreover, she is so beautiful and has such a great presence; she doesn't look like someone who has been working for over ten years at all.
Li Weiya looked around. Among the four people in the private room, one was her son, one was her student, and another was her student's wife whom she had met not long ago. Only the last one was someone she didn't recognize.
However, judging from their appearance, they must be classmates.
Remembering that Jiang Xia had told her before that he would arrange an operations person for her, she must be referring to the girl in front of her.
"Hello, I am Li Weiya. I am very happy to work with you all. If I do anything wrong in the future, I hope you can give me your guidance."
She smiled slightly and extended her hand to Shen Ying with goodwill. She said "everyone" but she was really only saying it to Shen Ying, since she was already very familiar with the others.
Upon seeing this, Wang Ming's face twitched violently; it turned out that a pleasant surprise was waiting for him here.
He suddenly stopped talking, and didn't even dare to look at Shen Ying. He was very worried. He didn't know what his mother would think if she found out that he liked Shen Ying.
Shen Ying didn't know why the big shot chose her right at the start, so she hurriedly stood up and shook hands with her.
"Ms. Li, no, no, Director Li, hello. My name is Shen Ying. I currently work in the company's operations department. To be honest, I'm still a newbie in this industry, and there are many things I don't understand. I hope Director Li can give me some guidance."
“Let’s learn from each other.” Li Weiya smiled and said, “For an animation company, operations is a very important position, and you are doing a very good job right now.”
"Director Li knows me?" Shen Ying was slightly surprised.
“Ah Xia told me that you’re handling almost all the big and small matters in the company right now, and there haven’t been any major mishaps. That’s quite remarkable for a new operations manager.” Li Weiya nodded gently.
Shen Ying blushed slightly: "At first, I didn't know anything either. It was the boss who taught me a lot."
"These are two different things. The key is that you study hard and work hard. Coincidentally, I have some unique insights into operations, and I'm happy to share them with you, as long as you're willing to learn," Li Weiya said with a smile.
"Director Li, please teach me! I'm willing to do anything!" Shen Ying said loudly, her face full of sincerity, she was almost ready to kneel down and ask to become his apprentice.
Seeing the scene before him, Jiang Xia winked at his wife. It seemed like the move he had made was quite clever, and he had somehow managed to accomplish something without even realizing it.
Speaking of which, Li Weiya will be Shen Ying's master from now on. If Wang Ming and Shen Ying's relationship goes through, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he deserves great credit, right?
Wang Ming remained silent, then secretly took out his phone and sent a text message to Jiang Xia.
"Old Jiang, what are you up to?"
"How about it? Excited? Happy? From now on, you and Shen Ying will be fellow disciples. As the saying goes, being near the water tower makes it easier to get the moon. Brother, this is all I can do to help you." After pressing the send button, Jiang Xia looked up and winked at him meaningfully with his right eye.
Wang Ming was stunned. He did know that his mother had resigned. Li Weiya had even asked him with a smile before what he would think if she also joined Qitian Animation Company and the mother and son worked in the same place.
Wang Ming didn't seem to care about this issue.
Ultimately, where she chooses to work is her personal matter, and he, as her son, has no right to interfere. As long as she is happy at work and has good benefits, he will fully support her.
Relatively speaking, Qitian Animation Company is pretty good. Although it's tiring, which artist isn't? Working overtime and staying up late are basic operations. Most importantly, he is very happy to see his work broadcast on TV and seen by countless people across the country.
That alone is enough.
Wang Ming never expected his mother to join him so soon after resigning, especially at such an awkward time. Couldn't they have waited until everyone went to university in a few days?
So, Jiang Xia is really despicable. Although this has brought him and Shen Ying closer, something still feels off.
"Ah Ming, from now on we're colleagues. When we're working, you have to call me Director Li. If the quality of the original artwork isn't up to par, I won't let you off the hook. I'll definitely send it back for a redraw," Li Weiya said with a smile as she looked at her son.
Amin?
Shen Ying was stunned. Just now, Li Weiya called the boss "A Xia," which was understandable since they were teacher and student. But why was she calling Wang Ming "A Ming" now? Such an intimate way of addressing him, was she also a student?
By the way, Wang Ming had told her before that he and Jiang Xia studied art in the same place.
She just sensed that Director Li's attitude towards Jiang Xia and Wang Ming was somewhat different, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
"Yes, Director Li." Wang Ming twitched his lips slightly. Not calling her "Mom" suited him perfectly, as it would avoid a lot of unnecessary awkwardness.
"Yanwan, from now on I'll be bothering you," Li Weiya said with a light smile.
"Aunt Li, please don't say that. I'm so happy that you've joined us. If Jiang Xia is the backbone, then you are our pillar. Thank you, Aunt Li," Lin Yanwan said sincerely.
"It's not that exaggerated."
Li Weiya shook her head, then her gaze fell on Jiang Xia, her most prized student, the true father of Tom and Jerry, who had invited her three times, and now she was finally going to start working for him.
Thinking about all this, she couldn't help but feel emotional.
"Ah Xia, I'm here."
Li Weiya said with a smile.
