After class, Shen Jize took them to the studio across from the school.
Shen Jize said it was close to the school, but none of the four of them expected it to be this close. Once they left the school gate, they could go directly upstairs by crossing the road.
The entire third floor is their studio.
Shen Jize explained, "Houses in Jiangcheng are quite cheap. I initially planned to buy one to store my things, but I have a car and I'm used to living there, so I've stuck with it."
“This is a residential building. The two apartments are connected. If you want to live here, that’s fine, but you’ll need to set it up yourself. I’ve already prepared everything you need for work.”
Not only were they prepared, but they were also quite comprehensive.
It was as if their coming here to work was part of her plan all along.
"The environment is really nice. We would feel more at ease if we left some blueprints here."
When the blueprints were mentioned, Shen Jize pointed to the side and said, "This is a safe I bought yesterday. After we finish using the blueprints, we'll put them all in the safe for better security. You can set your own passwords; you don't need to tell me. Just the four of you know them."
The four of them were overjoyed.
"Chen, you trust us that much."
Shen Jize refused to take responsibility, saying, "I trust Lin. She let you participate in this project because she recognizes and trusts your abilities. I hope you won't let her down."
This statement is somewhat—
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
Wang Ying took the initiative to ease the awkwardness, saying, "Of course we won't let Weiwei down. This is a rare opportunity, and we'd be foolish not to seize it."
After giving a few more instructions, Shen Jize left.
As soon as Shen Jize left, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew, Shen is so intimidating, even though we're the same age," Wang Ying said.
Zhang Yanyan laughed and said, "You're still feeling guilty."
Quietly, she didn't care about any of that. "Let's get started. I can't wait to show my skills."
Lin Wei has a good eye for talent. Wang Ying and the other two are all quite capable. After a brief explanation from her, they immediately started working on her sketches.
This busy work lasted until 9 p.m.
Lin Wei was worried about this, so she set an alarm clock in the studio.
'Ring~~~~'
The alarm clock startled everyone.
"Wow, what happened? What happened?"
"The alarm went off. I set it for 9 o'clock. I need to hurry up and get ready to go back to the dorm, otherwise the dorm supervisor will lock the door."
"Ah, is the happy time so short? I feel like I've only just begun, how come it's already over?"
An Jing couldn't quite understand Wang Ying's thoughts. "I'm so busy my head is about to explode. Even if the alarm clock doesn't go off, I still need to rest for a while."
"What's wrong? Is it difficult?" Lin Wei asked.
"It's not difficult, it's just that I've never done anything this complicated before. I was worried about making mistakes, so I had to be more careful in the first step, which naturally required more brainpower."
"Although we're a bit rushed, it's not really that rushed. Let's rest on time and not overwork ourselves. Let's pack up and wash up when we get back."
Lin Wei reminded her, "Besides, we haven't had dinner yet. I can work on an empty stomach, but I can't stand going to bed on an empty stomach. How about this, starting tomorrow, you guys come first, and I'll go to the cafeteria to get us food, and then we can eat while we work."
“Okay.” Zhang Yanyan nodded in agreement.
Wang Ying also said, "I think it's okay. Actually, I've been hungry for a while, but I was too embarrassed to say anything since you guys didn't say anything. Luckily, my stomach didn't growl, otherwise I would have been too embarrassed."
Anjing chuckled, "If you're hungry, just say so. I'm hungry too, but I'm too embarrassed to say it. You mentioned it, and I did."
“I’m hungry too,” Zhang Yanyan said.
But Lin Wei was the same way. "I was hungry too, but I saw you guys were so focused and engrossed that I felt bad telling you to stop, so..."
The four of them looked at each other and burst out laughing.
After finishing two bowls of wontons at the wonton shop near the school gate, I went back to my dormitory to wash up and rest.
The days passed by in a fulfilling way, and finally Saturday arrived.
Lin Wei said apologetically, "I didn't know I'd be this busy last week, so I didn't tell my aunt and brother. I'll go back and have a meal to let them know, and I'll bring some more food over for you. We've been busy for five days straight, you should get some rest."
"You don't need to worry about us. We're tired and know we need to rest, we're not little kids anymore. But you'll have to take good care of your child, otherwise your little brother will get angry."
"No, I'm not that stingy."
After saying that, Lin Wei left.
On Saturday afternoon, there was only one class. When Lin Wei returned home with the groceries she had bought, Lin Xiaomeng was still at work, and only Lin Yuan was at home doing his homework alone.
Seeing her younger brother being so well-behaved, Lin Wei asked curiously, "Why are you home alone? Didn't you play with the Su family boy?"
Lin Yuan did want to play, but—
"Those two did something naughty again and got a beating from Aunt Zhang. They're doing their homework obediently at home now. There's nothing fun to do when they're not around, so I'm doing my homework at home too."
After Lin Wei returned, she went into the kitchen. Lin Yuandong clung to her, put down his homework, and followed her into the kitchen.
"You're doing your homework, what are you doing following your sister around?"
"I want to know what we're having for dinner, sis. I want to eat meat."
Lin Wei was taken aback. "What's wrong? Auntie didn't cook any meat?"
"Yes, but it's not as good as my sister's. Luckily, my sister comes back once a week, so I can... well, improve my palate."
"That's it. My sister came back this time because she has a lot of homework at school. She won't be able to come back every week anymore, at least not before summer vacation."
"ah."
Lin Yuan's face was ashen. "Sis, does that mean I'll never be able to eat your cooking again?"
"Of course, it might be changed from this week to... a month? But that's okay, when summer vacation comes, you can eat my cooking every day."
This is why Lin Wei wanted to resolve the issue within two months.
If it can't be resolved in two months, there's still about a month before summer vacation to make some deletions, modifications, and further improvements.
Nowadays, their drawings are all hand-drawn, not computer-generated.
Each step of the revision is tedious, so it's essential to allow ample time before the drawings are finalized.
As for summer vacation—
Two months is naturally used to set up a stall again.
If she has the time and opportunity to make money, why wouldn't she do it?
"Alright, Auntie's food is pretty good, much better than when you were at our house. You can't become picky after a few days of good food."
"No, Auntie's cooking is delicious too, but not as delicious as my sister's. I just miss my sister when I can't see her."
“My sister goes to school, she can’t run away. Didn’t you go to her school before? She can walk there without even taking a car.”
At this point, Lin Wei said, "Do you remember the new house my sister bought? It's the one across from the school, and my sister's workplace is right next to the new house."
