Chapter 103 Overbearing Boss
Gu Xuelan was so happy that she cooked a few more dishes and called the two gentlemen next door over. They all had dinner together in a lively atmosphere.
Xu Qingsong and Du Yunkai were not surprised by Li Yu's change, because the result was completely within their expectations.
But encouragement should still be given, and the two of them praised him without hesitation, until he retreated back into his shell of being taciturn and easily shy.
After dinner, several people went to the sun room to sit and drink tea.
Du Yunkai's feet still hurt. He didn't dare to exert too much force when walking, and he limped a little. Wen Xi, who found out the reason, laughed at him.
Liu Wangxue was still making fruit tea and using the same set of ceramic European tea set from last time, just the right set for each person.
While drinking tea, we talked about our experiences over the past half month.
Before Li Yu agreed to Wen Xi, he seemed to have gone through countless psychological struggles in that short half day.
At first, he really didn't want to go. He had no confidence in himself and was afraid of messing things up. Later, with everyone's persuasion and encouragement, especially after listening to what Shen Nian'an said, he wavered.
Then he thought of his father, who wanted him to grow up and be independent more than anyone else. In addition, Wenxi spared no effort to persuade and assure him, and he finally made up his mind.
On the way to Jing City, Wenxi kept explaining the history of Porcelain to Li Yu and describing in detail what kind of person Joshua was.
Wenxi said: "He is usually very arrogant, and his eyes seem to be on the top of his head, but this is largely due to his family background. He has been at the top of the pyramid since birth, and we ordinary people don't care about his bad habits.
But he was well-educated, polite, and gentlemanly. He knew how to respect others and would not embarrass others unless he was angry. And most importantly, he loved and cherished talents. As long as a person's talent caught his eye, he would treat him with courtesy.
So Xiaoyu, don't worry, we just need to show our professional strength and perform normally. Do you still remember the day when we dug lotus roots together, Du Yunkai and I asked you many questions about landscape architecture, and you looked so bright when you talked so eloquently at that time!
This time, you can treat Joshua as me and Du Yunkai, and just treat it as popularizing the art and history of our country's architecture to a layman, but just change the language to English, no problem. "
After Wenxi finished talking about all this, Li Yu probably only remembered the last sentence, "Just change the language into English." Scared by the child, he quickly took out his cell phone, found his previous study materials, and began to frantically review garden-related English.
Wenxi stared with her eyes wide open, not knowing what to say. Never mind, seeing that he was studying so enthusiastically, let him study. Perhaps for him, this was also a way to relax.
After arriving in Beijing, my assistant Xiaoyun came to pick me up at the airport.
The car did not drive directly to the hotel, but went to a styling studio run by a friend of Wenxi.
Wenxi said: "You are going to meet a big shot in the fashion industry, so you have to change your appearance. Even if the person you are meeting is not him, the clothes you are wearing today are not very suitable.
Whether it is work or life, as long as you step out of the house, the first impression you give people is often your appearance. The first impression is important, so appearance is also important. "
Li Yu nodded and listened carefully, because no one had ever said these words to him before.
In fact, what Wenxi also wants to say is that most people nowadays are impetuous, and few are willing to slowly uncover the rough appearance and explore the inner self, especially in the fashion circle where appearance is the main concern.
Just like Joshua, a person can be treated with courtesy by virtue of his talent, but the prerequisite is that the person's appearance must not make him feel that it is so bad.
However, Wenxi did not say these words, for she was afraid of causing unnecessary tension to Li Yu, otherwise the child would have to start memorizing English again to relieve stress.
Wenxi's friend's styling studio is relatively well-known in the industry and has collaborated with some celebrities. She had already made an appointment in advance, so she took Li Yu directly to the VIP room upstairs.
From entering the door to going upstairs, most of the people passing by Li Yu were dressed up brightly and beautifully. They all looked like stars, as if they could immediately stand under the spotlight and shoot a set of fashion blockbusters as soon as they went out.
Li Yu clutched the hem of his old T-shirt a little awkwardly and followed Wen Xi closely.
Wenxi also felt it, and she put her arm around Li Yu's shoulders like an older sister, half-lying to him jokingly, "Don't be fooled by the fact that they all look decent when they leave here. When they get home and shed this layer of skin, who knows how sloppy they will be."
Li Yu believed it and said, "Ah? Really?"
Wenxi held back her laughter and nodded affirmatively.
Li Yu couldn't help but look back at those people, as if he wanted to see how sloppy they were at home through their current appearance, completely ignoring how he felt just now.
Wenxi quickly led the person inside.
Wenxi has already asked Xiaoyun to prepare the clothes to be worn in the next week. Tonight's main purpose is to try them on to see if they fit and match the temperament.
Li Yu was stunned as he watched the staff push rows and rows of clothes in. Like a puppet, he let Wen Xi try one piece after another on him, and then he obediently went to the fitting room to try them on one by one.
Li Yu tried on clothes from dawn to dusk, and he felt that in these few hours, he had tried on all the clothes he would wear in his life.
In the end, Wenxi chose a total of twenty sets, leaving the extra ones in case of emergency.
When he was checking out, Li Yu was shocked. Why did it cost so much? The T-shirt he was wearing was only a few dozen yuan, and the total cost of his entire outfit was no more than 200 yuan.
With so much money, Li Yu was calculating whether he should find a few more part-time jobs. Otherwise, when would he be able to pay it off?
Wenxi looked at his expression and felt both amused and distressed. She felt that Li Yu seemed to have some magical power.
Although he is a college student in his early twenties, he still has a baby face and looks childish. His eyes are clear, and all his thoughts are written on his face. He is a contradiction of inferiority and self-confidence, which makes people want to treat him as a younger brother.
Wenxi handed the bill and invoice to Xiaoyun and asked the staff to deliver the clothes to the hotel. Then she said to Li Yu, "Okay, the first employee benefit is completed. Next, let's complete the second item. I will take you to eat the most famous roast duck!"
Li Yu was dizzy the whole time, and even forgot to turn on the hot water when he took a shower when he returned to the hotel. It was only after the cold water woke him up that he felt sober.
The first time I went to BJ to eat Quanjude, I was amazed by the delicious food and couldn't forget it. But when I went there again after a few years, it didn't taste the same at all...
