Jiang Yuan looked at her meaningfully, her tone slightly complicated.
"Don't spend all your time thinking about other paths. Just do your job well and fulfill your responsibilities. Once you improve your abilities, opportunities will naturally come to you."
"I recommended you to the company from among so many people because of your performance recently. You remained humble and composed even after winning the award, and the several custom-made dresses you designed recently are also very good. I think you should be able to handle this role."
......
Jiang Jianhuan returned to her seat as usual, and Xu Xue couldn't contain her curiosity any longer and asked her.
"What does Director Jiang want with you?"
Jiang Jianhuan didn't answer immediately. Instead, she took a sip of water to calm herself down and then pinched the back of her hand hard.
"hiss--"
"pain!"
"Hey, are you stupid?!" Xu Xue quickly asked. Jiang Jianhuan shook his head and muttered to himself.
"It really isn't a dream..."
"......"
What's wrong with you?
"I'll tell you tomorrow." Jiang Jianhuan snapped out of her daze, gave her a mysterious smile, then rubbed the back of her hand, opened her computer, and found Su Mo's chat window.
She wanted to share this with him first.
Jiang Jianhuan left work on time that day. Since the news had not yet spread, the entire office was as calm as usual, except for the occasional awkwardness when they met Zhou Ran's gaze.
One was filled with disappointment and resentment, while the other was desperately trying to conceal his joy.
Only after returning home did Jiang Jianhuan dare to completely relax. Humming a cheerful tune, she bent down to set the table, like a little butterfly busily flitting among flowers. Su Duan came out with the dishes and smiled.
"So happy?"
"Of course!" Jiang Jianhuan turned around and answered in a clear and loud voice.
"I'm going to be on TV! No, that's not the point. I mean, I have a feeling that the door to instant wealth is opening for me. No, that's too vulgar." Jiang Jianhuan adjusted his expression, cleared his throat, and spoke in a serious and positive tone.
"I mean it! I'm about to realize my dream! To become an excellent designer!"
"Okay, congratulations on opening the door to your dream. Can I go over now, Jiang Da Design? My hands are sore."
Su Mo, whose path was blocked by her, listened to the impassioned 'speech' for a long time with the dishes in her hands. She couldn't hide the smile on her face and teased her.
Jiang Jianhuan raised her chin and snorted, stepping aside, thinking to herself, "Just wait and see how I deal with you tonight."
After each meal, Su Mo would clean up the kitchen, Jiang Jianhuan would help mop the floor, then slip into the bathroom and sneak out somewhat furtively.
When Su Mo went in to get clothes, she saw Jiang Jianhuan huddled under the covers, completely covered up.
"You went to bed so early today?" Judging from her previous enthusiasm, I thought she would be too excited to sleep all night.
"I'll wait for you to sleep together." Jiang Jianhuan poked her little head out and blinked at him, her black pupils sparkling under the light like a clear spring.
Although her voice was sweet and affected, Su Mo still couldn't help but spit out her breath for a few seconds.
He glared at her helplessly, then took his pajamas and went out.
Su Mo always takes a quick shower, and today, with some unknown worry on her mind, she was even faster, finishing in no time and heading to her room feeling refreshed.
The bedroom door was closed, which puzzled Su Mo. It seemed that he hadn't closed the door when he came out.
Without thinking much, Su Mo pushed him away, but a soft, delicate body bumped into her arms, accompanied by a sweet cheer.
"Surprise! Do you like it?!"
Jiang Jianhuan wrapped her arms around his neck, smiling brightly, and only then did Su Mo get a clear look at her.
The person in my arms was wearing a school uniform, a shirt, a short skirt, a suit jacket, and a bow tie at the chest, and was barefoot on the floor.
Su Mo glanced at it and found that the pleated skirt was ridiculously short, exposing two pale, slender legs to the air. He swallowed involuntarily.
Chapter 47
"Who told you to dress like this?" Su Mo asked in a hoarse voice, his eyes seemingly glued to her, his pupils dark and deep.
Jiang Jianhuan noticed that the hand around his waist had tightened, as if he was restraining something.
She curved her lips into a smile, tiptoed closer to his ear, and breathed softly.
Don't you like it?
It should be something you like.
Jiang Jianhuan discovered this on the day of the school anniversary. Her class performed a skit in which she played the second female lead, a pure and beautiful school beauty.
That's how she dressed that day: a navy blue coat, a white shirt, a gray plaid pleated skirt, long, flowing black hair, and a pair of long, straight, fair legs.
The moment she stepped out of the fitting room, a chorus of exclamations erupted outside, with people saying she could go straight for the lead role in a teen movie.
The evening's performance went smoothly, with their class receiving the loudest cheers, especially during Jiang Jianhuan's appearance, where the applause was particularly intense. Su Mo was also in the audience that night; their class had a performance, but he didn't go on stage.
After that freshman welcome party, Su Mo avoided all events that required her to show her face, and became so low-key on campus that it was almost impossible to find her.
That night, after the performance, Jiang Jianhuan originally planned to go back to her dormitory, but Su Mo texted her to come out.
Finally, they went back to his house. As soon as they entered, Jiang Jianhuan was pinned against the door and kissed. Her skirt was quickly lifted up, and the movements were so vigorous that she couldn't handle it. After it was over, her legs were weak and she was carried back to her room.
