Chapter 139 Do you want to go back to your country?
Lu Yiran: “…”
He held the phone in his hand, stunned there. He was really amused by Mu Nanyan. Not only did she hang up on him, but she actually treated him as a salesman?
Lu Yiran laughed out loud in anger, feeling helpless and a little annoyed. He was the president of Dingsheng Group, but he was actually mistaken for a telephone salesperson. If this were to get out, no one would believe it.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his irritability, and called Mu Nanyan again. This time, as soon as the call was connected, he spoke first:
"It's me, Lu Yiran."
"I was wondering when you would become so persistent in sales..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then Mu Nanyan's cold voice said:
"Mr. Lu? How do you have my phone number?"
When Lu Yiran heard her voice, his heart tightened slightly, and his tone was somewhat helpless:
"I asked for it from the design department, Nan Yan. I want to talk to you about something."
Mu Nanyan's tone remained cold:
"Mr. Lu, if it's a work matter, you can contact my assistant directly. If it's a personal matter, I don't think we have anything to discuss."
Lu Yiran was choked by her attitude, and after hesitating for a while, he said:
"I really have something to talk to you about."
Mu Nanyan was silent for a few seconds, and finally said coldly:
"Mr. Lu, just tell me what you have to say."
Lu Yiran took a deep breath, his tone a little serious:
"Nan Yan, Yun Qianxue is looking for you. She wants Grace to help her design a dress."
When Mu Nanyan heard this, her heart tightened slightly, but her tone remained calm:
"Mr. Lu, so you called me to help Yun Qianxue?"
"I'll ask for her, if you..."
Before Lu Yiran could finish, Mu Nanyan said directly: "I won't accept her order, please tell her."
Mu Nanyan hung up the phone after she finished speaking.
Lu Yiran listened to the busy tone on the phone and frowned slightly. He put down the phone and stared at the "Call ended" prompt on the screen, feeling complicated.
Mu Nanyan's reaction surprised him a little, and he even felt that she seemed... angry?
"Mu Nanyan, you're really awesome. You actually hung up on me three times."
He muttered to himself, but a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Yiran recalled the conversation just now. Although Mu Nanyan's tone was cold, her reaction was obviously a little wrong when she mentioned Yun Qianxue.
Especially the sentence "So you called me to help Yun Qianxue?", there seemed to be a subtle hint of sourness in the tone.
"Could it be... that she is jealous?" This thought suddenly popped up in Lu Yiran's mind, and then he felt it was a bit absurd. Mu Nanyan had long been cold and distant to him, so how could she be jealous of Yun Qianxue?
Lu Yiran smiled self-deprecatingly.
————
After hanging up the phone, Mu Nanyan held the phone with a complicated feeling in her heart. She didn't expect that Lu Yiran would take the initiative to look for her for Yun Qianxue.
Lu Yiran has always been calm and self-possessed, and rarely cares so much about other people's affairs, unless... Yun Qianxue is really important to him.
Thinking of this, Mu Nanyan felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart. She couldn't help but recall that when she was with Lu Yiran, Lu Yiran had never cared about her so much. There were so many girls around Lu Yiran, but she had never won over any of them. It was really ridiculous to think about it now.
At this moment, Mu Nanyan's phone rang again. She subconsciously wanted to hang up, but when she saw the name displayed on the screen, she picked up the call.
"Hello, what's up?"
Mu Nanyan's tone was not good, and there was even a hint of impatience. She was in a really bad mood today, and she didn't look at the person on the other end of the phone well.
"Nan Yan, what's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy?"
Zhou Ruxuan's concerned voice came from the other end of the phone. Since Mu Nanyan resigned from Pinshang, she also left and has been working beside Mu Nanyan. Now, she is still Mu Nanyan's assistant, mainly responsible for handling daily affairs.
Mu Nanyan didn't want to say more and asked directly:
"Did something happen at the studio?"
"Here's the thing. Today someone asked you to make a dress. She seems to be in a hurry and even said she can increase the price. Do you think you can take it?"
There was a hint of tentativeness in Zhou Ruxuan's tone.
"What's your name?"
Mu Nanyan frowned, with a bad feeling in her heart. Zhou Ruxuan replied:
"Yun Qianxue."
When Mu Nanyan heard the name, her heart sank. She hadn't expected Yun Qianxue to be so quick and actually contact the studio. Without even a second thought, she refused.
"No, from now on, if she wants to order a dress, I will not accept it."
Zhou Ruxuan was a little surprised, with a hint of doubt in her tone:
"Did she do something to offend you?"
According to her understanding of Mu Nanyan, as long as the customer is willing to increase the price, Mu Nanyan will usually accept the order. This is the first time she has seen Mu Nanyan actively refuse after hearing the price increase.
"No, I just don't like her."
Mu Nanyan's tone was cold, and she obviously didn't want to talk more.
Zhou Ruxuan heard the displeasure in her tone and did not ask any more questions, but just replied:
"Okay, I'll let her know later."
"Um."
Mu Nanyan finished speaking and was about to hang up the phone when Zhou Ruxuan suddenly spoke:
"Nan Yan, when will you return to Country F? I haven't accepted any cooperation for almost a month. I'm waiting for you to come back."
Mu Nanyan then remembered that she had been staying in Haicheng for a long time and had almost forgotten about the studio in Country F. She had been abroad for so many years and now that she was back in China, she still felt that the environment in China made her feel more comfortable. She hesitated for a moment and said,
"Ruxuan, do you want to go back home?"
Zhou Ruxuan said without thinking:
"Of course I did! This is my job, otherwise I would have gone back long ago."
Mu Nanyan smiled, with a serious tone:
"Then you should move the studio back, and we will work in Haicheng from now on."
"Is this true?"
Zhou Ruxuan's voice instantly rose an octave, her tone full of surprise.
"Really, I'll look for a suitable address in the next two days, and then you can just come over and clean it up."
“OK!”
Zhou Ruxuan responded excitedly,
"Nan Yan, you're amazing! I'll go inform the others right away!"
Mu Nanyan was infected by her emotions and felt a little better:
"Okay, then you can make the arrangements first. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."
"Okay!"
The two chatted for a few more minutes before finally hanging up the phone.
After putting down her phone, Mu Nanyan felt noticeably more relaxed. She believed that moving her studio back to China was the right choice. After all, here were her family, her friends, and the life she wanted to start over.
