Chapter 84 I Know You Are the Best
Xu Nanxing said coquettishly:
"Thank you, Brother Yiran. I knew you were the best."
Lu Yiran didn't respond to Xu Nanxing's question. He changed the subject and asked, "Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Xu Nanxing quickly handed the document in his hand to Lu Yiran
"This document requires your signature."
Lu Yiran took it, looked at it for a few seconds, and signed his name on the document. He then closed the document and handed it to Xu Nanxing.
"I've signed it. If you're fine, get out of here. I need to start working."
"Okay, then Brother Yiran, I'll go out first."
"Um."
Xu Nanxing went out dejectedly with the documents. How could she not see that Lu Yiran was trying to drive her away?
"Forget it. From now on, I won't disturb Brother Yiran when he's working, lest he find me annoying."
Xu Nanxing discovered that Lu Yiran was usually easy to talk to, but he was ruthless at work.
On the other hand, Mu Nanyan went to the model room of the technical department today. She drew the first draft yesterday, but felt that there were still some areas that needed adjustment. She wanted to change the environment, maybe she could get some new ideas.
She went to this fashion design competition on behalf of the company, so the company gave her many privileges. She could enter and leave the design department and technical department freely as long as she wanted to go.
A soft beam of natural light penetrates the half-closed curtains and gently falls on the large drawing table, giving this small space a layer of dreamy gold.
Mu Nanyan was immersed in her creative world. She was wearing a simple yet stylish white linen dress. The hem of the dress swayed gently with her subtle movements, like jasmine swaying in the morning breeze, exuding a faint literary and artistic atmosphere.
Her long, smooth hair was casually tied into a low bun, with a few strands of hair casually falling in front of her forehead, adding a touch of natural beauty to her.
Various design sketches were scattered on the table, some with smooth lines, and some with colorful colors. Mu Nanyan's fingertips lightly touched the latest drawing, which was an evening dress designed with starry sky inspiration. The deep blue-purple gradient was like the brightest galaxy in the night sky. The gauze and satin were cleverly interwoven, as if capturing the glimmer of the Milky Way, allowing people to feel the wearer's inner vastness and mystery at a glance.
Her eyes were sometimes solemn, sometimes flashing with excitement. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind. She picked up the pen and began to revise her design draft. The pencil rustled on the paper. Every modification was a pursuit of perfection, and every line was a redefinition of beauty.
As the design gradually took shape, Mu Nanyan gently blew away the pencil shavings on the drawing, looked at her work with satisfaction, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"That's you."
She was very satisfied with her work this time. Since this work was used to participate in a competition, she designed an evening dress, which was very different from her usual everyday wear. This was her first time designing this type of clothing, so it could be considered her debut work.
"Nan Yan, have you finished designing the clothes?"
At this time, Zhou Ruxuan walked in and saw that Mu Nanyan was very happy, so she asked a question.
"I just finished the design. You came just in time. Please help me choose the fabric. I want to make a sample. After all, there is still a certain difference between the actual product and the drawing. I want to make it as perfect as possible."
"Okay, I was just worried about not being able to help you. You said Director Liu assigned me to you, but I haven't done anything at all. I'm really embarrassed."
"It's okay, can't you help me now?"
Mu Nanyan said and smiled at Zhou Ruxuan.
"Uh-huh."
Mu Nanyan stood in the spacious and bright atrium of the studio, surrounded by a variety of fabrics, as brilliant as a rainbow. Her eyes shuttled between the fabrics, finally settling on a piece of deep blue satin, which was faintly shimmering with a galaxy-like light.
"Xuanxuan, look at this."
Mu Nanyan called softly, her fingers brushing the fabric lightly. Zhou Ruxuan walked closer and looked at it carefully.
"Wow, this fabric is so beautiful, like a slice of the night sky. But... wouldn't it be too risky to use it for an evening gown? After all, its sheen and texture are very unique and difficult to control."
Mu Nanyan smiled slightly, with a designer's unique light flashing in her eyes.
"It is precisely because of its uniqueness that it is worth our challenge. I want to make an evening dress that makes people feel like they are stepping into the stars. Wearing it is like embracing the entire universe."
Zhou Ruxuan nodded, her eyes also ignited with excitement.
"Then I understand. How do we create this feeling of a starry sky? Do we need to do anything special with the tailoring or design?"
"That's right."
Mu Nanyan picked up a piece of silver sequined fabric,
"I plan to use these sequins to outline the trajectory of the Milky Way on the hem and cuffs of the skirt, and then use organza to create a light cloud effect. When the whole skirt moves, it has the depth of the starry sky and the beauty of fluidity."
"Wow, that sounds exciting!"
Zhou Ruxuan said excitedly,
"Then let's get started now, starting with cutting this main piece of fabric."
The two of them divided the work tacitly. Mu Nanyan was responsible for the final confirmation of the design drawings and the cutting of key parts, while Zhou Ruxuan carefully measured and marked to ensure that every inch of the fabric was accurate.
"Remember, the waistline should be just right, flattering the figure without restricting the wearer's freedom."
Mu Nanyan gave instructions and demonstrated how to cut the fabric smoothly.
"I understand, Nan Yan, you always handle the details so perfectly."
Zhou Ruxuan was operating the machine attentively, occasionally looking up and exchanging a knowing smile with Mu Nanyan.
Over time, the fabrics gradually transformed in their hands, from ordinary pieces of cloth to star-studded evening gowns that will sparkle at the gala. Every stitch and every thread embodies their pursuit and love of beauty.
"Look, it's taking shape."
Mu Nanyan stood on the stage, examining the work that was about to be completed, her eyes full of pride and anticipation.
"Xuanxuan, thank you for your help. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have been able to finish it so quickly and so perfectly."
Zhou Ruxuan responded with a smile,
"It is your design that gives us endless possibilities. I am honored to have participated in the completion of this design. This dress is really beautiful."
"Then hers will be our preliminary entry. We'll submit our design when the submissions start."
"Uh-huh."
The two of them simply tidied up the model room, put away the clothes they had made, and prepared to return to the design department.
"Ding-ling-ling~"
Just at this moment, Mu Nanyan's phone rang.
"Xuanxuan, go back first. I have a call."
"good."
Zhou Ruxuan left after she finished speaking. Mu Nanyan walked to the balcony next to her and took out her cell phone, but when she saw the caller ID, she frowned.
