Ai Xiaoxia naturally couldn't draw in such detail, and she used a pen to draw, so there weren't that many color changes, but the brushstrokes and style were the same as those in the drawings at first glance.
Mu Chen sighed and said, "We're just confused. We've never seen Xiao Li draw before, so how come he suddenly produced so many renderings? I need to report this to the leader so that your drawings will be taken seriously and we can go through the normal process."
Ai Xiaoxia discovered that people at this time always like to find acquaintances. In fact, if you don’t need to find acquaintances for this job, just go to the design institute, pay the money and follow the normal process.
She said to Mu Chen: "Thank you so much for your help, otherwise I really would have no other choice."
Mu Chen also smiled and said, "This really wasn't me helping you, you helped yourself. No one wanted to take over this project before because they thought those drawings were drawn by Xiao Li. To be honest, you said his drawings were so good, none of us could reach that level, which would have embarrassed us. Plus, because of Xiao Li's incident, everyone avoided him. Now that it's proven that the drawings were drawn by you, anyone can take this job, and they probably want to work with a talented woman like you."
Ai Xiaoxia didn't expect that there were so many things going on here. Sun Qiang was too loyal and trusted his friends too much. This time he made friends carelessly and trusted the wrong person. She would have to talk to Sun Qiang when she got back.
But since the matter was resolved so easily today, she was still happy: "Anyway, I have to thank you. I will treat you to a meal some other day. A relative of mine is in the hospital these two days, so I don't have time."
"Is your relative okay? Do you need my help?"
"No, the child is injured. He just needs to recover after the operation. Thank you for your concern."
"That's good. Leave the blueprints to me. Come back in ten days and they should be approved."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"Why are you being so polite to me? Just come to me if you have anything to say."
"Well, you're welcome. You're still at work. Go back to work. I'll leave these to you."
"Okay, I'll take you out then."
"No need. Isn't the gate right in front of me? I can walk by myself." Ai Xiaoxia waved at Mu Chen: "Goodbye."
Mu Chen still walked her a few steps and watched her walk out the door before returning to the office to deal with Ai Xiaoxia's matter.
Ai Xiaoxia returned to Lingyuan Hotel. She thought a lot on the way. Sun Qiang is a loyal man, but he still needs to be reminded about making friends. He is young, and the trust between people in this era is high, but this is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
So she was also very skillful when she spoke to Sun Qiang.
After entering the room and sitting down, she said to Sun Qiang: "Qiangzi, you have known Xiao Li for a few years. How much do you know about him?"
Sun Qiang said, "We've known each other for about three years." He frowned and thought for a moment, "I don't think I know much about him."
Hearing that they hadn't known each other for many years, Ai Xiaoxia felt relieved. "You're just too loyal and honest, but sometimes not everyone is like you. You might not know Xiao Li well enough. Qiangzi, you should get to know him better in the future, otherwise you might end up at a disadvantage."
Sun Qiang heard the hidden meaning in Ai Xiaoxia's words: "Sister-in-law, did Xiao Li do something that I don't know about?"
Ai Xiaoxia nodded. "He claimed all my drawings were his own, so no one at the design institute wanted to take over this job. Normally, we should just follow the normal procedures. We don't have to rely on connections for everything. If we encounter problems with the normal procedures, it won't be too late to ask for help."
When Sun Qiang heard Ai Xiaoxia say that Xiao Li claimed to have drawn those drawings, he slammed his fist on the table in anger and said, "I really am blind." He looked at Ai Xiaoxia apologetically and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I was too impulsive. Actually, my father has told me what you said before, but I always went against him, using his money and connections, but also wanted to make something of myself."
Ai Xiaoxia also thought of Sun Qiang's wealthy family. After all, how could it be possible for him to come up with so much money to start a business at his age? However, Sun Qiang never mentioned his family, and she didn't ask.
Now that she understood what was going on, she smiled and said, "Who isn't frivolous when they're young? We all want to prove ourselves in front of our parents, especially if we come from a better-off family. The more we want others to see our abilities. Qiangzi, don't worry. We will definitely be the pride of our elders in the future, but we also need to be humble. Let's listen to their experiences and then work hard to surpass them. Wouldn't that be more convincing?"
Sun Qiang looked at Ai Xiaoxia and smiled, nodding repeatedly: "Sister-in-law, you are right. You have seen through my thoughts. But you are right. I was naive before. I will be humble in the future."
"We're all young, so we all need setbacks along the way. Let's work together. Our blueprint will be completed in ten days, so don't worry about this."
"I really have to thank my sister-in-law this time."
"What are you talking about? Why should I let you worry about everything while I just wait for the food to be ready?"
"I really underestimated my sister-in-law's ability."
"Okay, stop praising me. I have something to do over there, so I have to go back first." Ai Xiaoxia didn't tell anyone about what happened in the hospital, otherwise Sun Qiang would have to go there, and he was also very busy. Besides, the child was already well, so there was no need to make a trip.
Sun Qiang said, "Okay, then I'll take my sister-in-law out."
"No need. How strange it would be for you to see me off every time I come? Besides, I'm going to say hello to Xiao E before I leave. You can go do your own thing."
"Okay, then I won't be polite to my sister-in-law."
Ai Xiaoxia came out and talked to Fang Lan'e for a few more words before returning to the hospital. On the way, she passed by a store and bought some toys for Xiaobao. The child liked her and she also loved the child.
On Saturday afternoon, the doctor said Xiaobao could be discharged from the hospital and just needed to go back to the local hospital to receive intravenous drip for a few more days.
Ai Xiaoxia went straight to hire a car and waited for Lu Jingshen to get off work, and then they went home together.
After hiring a car, she bought some fruits and went to Jiang Qingru to express her gratitude. She said she had troubled him a lot in the past two days, but it would not be appropriate to just give him a red envelope. Buying him something was also a thoughtful gesture.
After finishing everything, I returned to the ward.
Lu Lin packed up her things and looked at the hospital bed with emotion. She said that she was scared and that if the child became disabled, she would never forgive herself in her life.
Su Changzhu also repented for their neglect of the children.
In fact, after Ai Xiaoxia heard Lu Lin tell her about the child's injury, she realized it was indeed an accident. The child was sitting under the window sill outside playing with sand. A few children were shooting birds with slingshots and accidentally broke the glass in their house. One of the pieces happened to pierce Xiaobao's arm.
Ai Xiaoxia discovered that raising a child is really not easy, and there are many things that you don’t notice.
