Nan Zhi pursed her lips:
"But I have to hand it in; I don't want to disappoint the teacher."
“If you design something just to complete an assignment, aren’t you going against your original intention? A good work can withstand meticulous refinement.”
Shen Xingmian looked at her, a hint of helplessness on her face.
Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi thought for a moment, and a light gradually appeared in her eyes.
She was somewhat annoyed, having somehow ended up in a dead end.
She was determined not to disappoint her teacher.
I want a well-designed, perfect piece of work.
But how can someone in this line of work be swayed by such thoughts?
You must be completely focused.
Seeing that Nan Zhi had come to her senses, Shen Xingmian smiled.
"Come with me to an auction tomorrow."
Nanzhi looked at him, then gave him a bright smile and nodded.
Take a break; inspiration might just strike.
The following day was Sunday, and the auction was held in the prime area of the United States.
Shen Xingmian pulled Nan Zhi to get her hair and makeup done first.
Then we drove to the prime area.
The auction will begin at 3 o'clock.
Shen Xingmian told Nan Zhi to just hold up a sign if they wanted something, as a way to relax.
Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi paused slightly. Was Shen Xingmian deliberately letting her splurge to adjust her mood?
"Don't worry, I have money. Just name your price."
Nanzhi: "..."
This must feel great.
However, Nanzhi did not intend to take anything she saw.
When the two arrived at the venue, there were already many people there.
This auction is a tradition in Country M, held almost every year.
You need to show your invitation when you go in.
When Nan Zhi saw the golden invitation card in Shen Xingmian's hand, she asked in confusion:
How did you get an invitation?
After all, this isn't China. Look at the environment here, and the cars parked around.
They also knew that this was an auction for high-ranking people.
Shen Xingmian glanced down at her, raised an eyebrow, and said:
"Given to me by a friend."
Nan Zhi: "......" Your friend seems pretty awesome.
Before 3 p.m., drinks and snacks were provided at the venue for everyone to pass the time.
Nanzhi and the others didn't arrive early.
Many people are exchanging pleasantries with each other.
The two had only been inside a short time when someone came looking for Shen Xingmian.
Who is this?
The other person was a man, and his face was full of mockery. Nanzhi frowned subconsciously.
Shen Xingmian glanced at the man coldly.
The man touched his nose and greeted Nanzhi:
"Hi, I'm Song Yiming, Xingmian's friend."
Nanzhi nodded to him. "Hello, Nanzhi."
Song Yiming looked at Nan Zhi with a smile. She was indeed quite beautiful; no wonder she could make Shen Xingmian fall head over heels for her.
She felt that Shen Xingmian might have something to discuss with the other party.
So he made up an excuse and left.
Shen Xingmian did not stop her.
Song Yiming watched Nan Zhi's retreating figure, then grinned at Shen Xingmian;
Aren't you afraid she'll be bullied?
It's no wonder Song Yiming thought that way. This Nan Zhi looks quite beautiful, and since she's in the US, she's bound to be bullied by some lecherous men.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xingmian withdrew her gaze and glanced indifferently at Song Yiming.
"No one can bully her."
Song Yiming: "......"
He asked a question:
"So, weren't you saying you weren't planning on coming?"
Shen Xingmian ignored Song Yiming's words and instead asked:
Where is Ji Fan?
Song Yiming cursed angrily:
"You know his personality, he's a real taciturn guy, it's rare to even hear him speak, why would he come to a place like this?"
Shen Xingmian thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.
"Oh, by the way, I heard that the Xu family will be coming today as well."
Shen Xingmian's eyes flickered slightly, and then she nodded.
As for Nam Gyi, there are many people here. I glanced at the time and there were still more than twenty minutes before it started.
So I went outside to the corridor for some fresh air.
She always felt that Shen Xingmian was hiding something from her.
However, she only thought about it.
After all, she also had things she was hiding from him.
"Beautiful lady, are you alone?"
A flippant voice rang out beside me.
Nanzhi looked up and saw a man with a disgusting look in his eyes.
Not wanting to cause trouble, Nanzhi decided to turn around and leave.
But the man's burning gaze was fixed on Nanzhi.
He had never seen such a clean-looking girl.
It's her overall aura that's truly captivating, making you want to trample her into the mud.
The man followed, grabbed Nanzhi's shoulder with one hand, and spoke with an ambiguous expression:
"Hey beautiful, wanna have some fun...?"
In an instant, the man's face contorted with pain.
Nan Zhi gently lowered her hand, turned her head, and looked at the man with a smile.
"What...did you just say?"
Looking into Nan Zhi's eyes, the man's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stepped back, clutching his injured hand.
"Do you...do you know who I am?"
Nanzhi raised an eyebrow. The man continued angrily:
“My dad is a member of the Xu family. You piece of trash, I’m doing you a favor by playing with you. Who do you think you are?”
The more he talked, the more justified he felt.
His father was the Xu family's butler, and many people in the US were willing to give him face.
My father brought me here today to pave the way for my own future.
But this man had always been fond of women, and when he saw Nanzhi alone, he was about to make his move.
Nan Zhi frowned. The Xu family? Are they very powerful?
