Xiang Nanzhi's eyes softened instantly with a smile. "No, my husband has a very good eye for talent."
Xiang Nanzhi's raw stone arrived as soon as it was delivered. She originally planned to wait until Shen Shixun left together, but she was in a hurry to finish the work. If she couldn't find another Buddha statue before the end of the month, she would have to make a jade replica that was indistinguishable from the real thing.
Chairman Li is a man of great experience and knowledge; it would be impossible to satisfy him without meticulous attention to detail.
Xiang Nanzhi left first, patting the man's arm, "I'll wait for you at the studio. Come over when you're done."
Zhou Erye's men delivered the raw stone to Xiang Nanzhi. Shen Shixun watched her leave, "Zhizhi..."
She was wearing a loose linen dress and turned to look at him.
What do you want to eat tonight?
I want to eat your cooking.
It was quite late when Shen Shixun finished his work. He didn't know if Xiang Nanzhi had left yet, but he saw the lights still on outside the studio in the distance. He turned around and went to the market to buy groceries first.
Back at her place, only Zhou Zilu was there to keep her company while she worked overtime. Zhou Zilu was probably drawing design drafts, and she almost bumped her head against the wall while drawing.
"Hello!"
Sensing someone, Zhou Zilu suddenly stood up. Seeing that it was Shen Shixun, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Sister Qiu is inside. She's still busy."
The rough stones have been cut to the south, and the sizes and quantities are almost complete. The rest is all fine work.
She could make jewelry, but carving Buddha statues was a real challenge for her, so she had to call her master, An Yuan, for advice.
She had a general idea, but she was still nervous. Holding a carving knife, she unfolded the photo of the Buddha statue and kept looking at it.
The meaning of a book becomes clear after reading it a hundred times; carving jade is the same thing, and she needs to master every detail.
Shen Shixun was very careful when he came in, so as not to disturb her. He saw that she was heavily pregnant, with her back to him, staring at a certain spot.
He followed her gaze and saw a Buddha statue in the painting. The man froze, clenching his fists so tightly that his bones cracked.
“Zhizhi…”
Xiang Nanzhi flinched and instinctively turned around, "What are you doing? You scared me."
"What is this?"
"A Buddha statue!" Xiang Nanzhi clutched her chest, taking a deep breath. "I mean, can you please stop scaring me like that..."
Seeing his shocked expression, Xiang Nanzhi calmed down a bit. "Isn't it incredible? I'm going to make the same thing right away. Besides making jewelry, I can also make Buddha statues."
