Chapter 42 Admiration
"No, you look very energetic."
Guo Zhenyi snapped out of his daze and smiled gently.
"It suits you very well; you look clean and give a very good impression."
Zhou Shufen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"This is my first day of class, and I thought that since I've started, it should be a fresh start. So I took it a little more seriously."
Guo Zhenyi's tone was full of encouragement.
"You've already done a great job. It's not actually that difficult. The course doesn't have a high entry barrier; the key is to have an interest. By the way, I know all the teachers here, and they're all very kind. As long as you study hard, don't be too nervous, and just follow the pace step by step, you'll be fine."
He then led Zhou Shufen into the building.
Their destination was the classroom at the far end of the first-floor corridor.
At this moment, there was only one person in the room organizing the documents on the table.
Zhou Shufen peeked into the room, her heart filled with curiosity.
She had never even seen these devices before, let alone touched them!
Guo Zhenyi pushed open the door and entered.
"Yu Kai, are you free now?"
The man heard the sound and turned around.
He was wearing a clean, crisp white shirt, neatly tucked into his trousers.
Despite his extremely simple outfit, he was full of energy.
"Old Guo, what good news has come to your door in broad daylight?"
Guo Zhenyi patted the other person on the shoulder and gestured for introduction.
"My friend wants to learn about design systematically, so I brought her here today to check it out."
He then turned to Zhou Shufen and introduced her.
"This is my former classmate, Professor Cheng Yukai. He is very professional and has a very good temper."
Cheng Yu looked at Zhou Shufen gently.
"Welcome! Have you had any related learning experience before?"
Zhou Shufen smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
“I had absolutely no prior knowledge of this subject; I was a complete beginner, but… I’m very interested.”
"It's okay, as long as you're interested, that's enough. You can start today."
Cheng Yu spoke in a gentle and encouraging tone.
He smiled and handed her a course brochure.
He majored in fashion design in college.
During my four years of university, I not only systematically learned relevant knowledge, but also pursued further studies at a nationally renowned fashion academy.
After graduation, he chose to pursue further studies abroad.
During his time abroad, he personally experienced the processes of an international-level design studio.
I also came into contact with many top designers and absorbed a lot of advanced design concepts and technologies.
He has now returned to China to develop his career.
After years of experience and accumulation, she became an independent fashion designer with her own brand.
His works are not only popular in the country, but have also gradually entered the international market.
To become a leader among the new generation of designers.
After receiving the course introduction, Zhou Shufen carefully browsed through it.
The more I looked at it, the more attracted I became to the teaching syllabus and curriculum.
She couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration and excitement.
The teacher recommended by Guo Zhenyi is absolutely perfect!
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
Zhou Shufen closed the course introduction and responded readily.
After saying that, she quickly completed the payment procedure.
Then, she turned to Guo Zhenyi, who was standing next to her, and said.
"I've already arranged everything here. You can go ahead and do your thing. I'll be fine here by myself."
Guo Zhenyi smiled.
"Keep up the good work."
Before leaving, he nodded slightly to Cheng Yukai to express his gratitude.
Not long after, the first class officially began.
Since Zhou Shufen was a beginner, Cheng Yukai did not rush into practical design work.
Instead, they started with the most basic design knowledge, paving the way for her step by step.
Even the simplest theoretical concepts were listened to with utmost concentration by Zhou Shufen.
She took out her notebook and meticulously recorded every key point the teacher explained.
The word "design" sounds very ordinary, as if simply drawing a picture is enough to be called "design".
However, applying the word "design" to clothing production is not such a simple matter.
In the world of clothing, different fabrics have their own unique characteristics.
The combination and matching of these fabrics will also bring about a wide variety of different presentation effects.
A qualified fashion designer must not only possess aesthetic sense and creativity, but also have a deep understanding of the types, textures, and feel of fabrics, as well as their suitability for different occasions.
Zhou Shufen listened with rapt attention.
Cheng Yu's lectures were clear and well-organized, with each point explained in detail.
Throughout the class, Zhou Shufen was completely unaware of the passage of time.
She didn't realize it until the teacher called for the end of get out of class.
Several hours had already slipped by unnoticed.
"Okay, get out of class dismissed!"
Cheng Yu clapped his hands lightly.
Zhou Shufen then came to her senses and realized that school had already ended.
"Okay, thank you, teacher."
Zhou Shufen smiled and nodded in response.
She carefully packed the books and gently placed them into her bag.
He then got up and left the classroom.
"I feel good today. If I keep it up, I'm sure I'll make progress."
Cheng Yukai stood by the podium, looking at Zhou Shufen with gentle eyes.
Zhou Shufen smiled.
She nodded and waved goodbye to Cheng Yu.
Her gaze inadvertently swept across the corridor, and she was surprised to find that Guo Zhenyi was actually waiting by the wall not far away.
Hey, what are you doing here?
Zhou Shufen's eyes widened, her face filled with surprise.
Upon hearing this, Guo Zhenyi immediately raised his head.
"It's okay, I just got off work too, and it's on my way. How about I give you a ride home?"
Zhou Shufen quickly waved her hand.
"No, really, you don't need to bother."
"It's no trouble at all, it only takes a few minutes by car."
Guo Zhenyi smiled nonchalantly.
As he spoke, he made a gentlemanly gesture of invitation.
He pointed his hand towards the parking lot.
"I wouldn't feel comfortable letting you walk alone at night."
Seeing his insistence, Zhou Shufen felt it was inappropriate to refuse him any further.
"Thank you so much for making this trip."
The two walked together toward Guo Zhenyi's car parked downstairs.
Along the way, the night was gentle and the lights were sparse.
In less than half an hour, the car arrived near the residential area.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'll get off here."
Zhou Shufen nodded her thanks to Guo Zhenyi.
Then, she opened the car door and got out.
This is a relatively quiet old community.
There aren't many vehicles on weekdays, and even fewer at night.
Upon hearing that a car was approaching, many residents leaned out of their balconies to look.
When they saw that it was Zhou Shufen who got off the bus, their eyes were full of curiosity and envy.
Someone in the crowd spoke first.
"Shufen, was that car a gift for you? Could it be your new boyfriend?"
Before he finished speaking, several chuckles and whispers of agreement arose from the surrounding area.
"No wonder, being able to ride in a car, this young man must be quite capable!"
An old woman was fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan.
"Shufen, if you find someone suitable, seize the opportunity. You're still young, don't always settle for someone else."
Another middle-aged woman joined in.
Everyone was talking at once, their voices rising and falling.
