Yan Xinxin looked up at Mo Chuxi in confusion, completely unable to grasp his meaning.
Sheng Yehan glanced over curiously as well.
Mo Chuxi stepped forward to stand in front of Yan Xinxin, his poker face full of displeasure.
"I'll get up after I finish cleaning this up."
Yan Xinxin replied and lowered her head to continue picking up the fragments.
"Yan Xinxin, I told you to get up."
Yan Xinxin had no choice but to stand up.
"Young Master Mo, what exactly is the matter?"
"Go have breakfast. You can clean this up later."
What kind of situation is this?
Could this arrogant man be acting out of concern for her skipping breakfast?
Yan Xinxin truly couldn't figure out Mo Chuxi's mindset, but she didn't want to hear him say anything more, so she turned to go eat.
She glanced up and saw Sheng Yehan watching her. Yan Xinxin offered him a polite smile before starting to walk.
But that slight smile was particularly offensive in Mo Chuxi's eyes.
Not long after Yan Xinxin sat down, she saw Sheng Yehan leave.
Thinking about his earlier mention of the jewelry exhibition, she sank into thoughtful regret.
"What's the matter? Can't let go of that Young Master Sheng from earlier?"
A certain someone's voice drifted down from above, laced with insinuation. Yan Xinxin snapped out of it and looked at him calmly.
"Young Master Sheng is so handsome, of course it's normal for me to not want to forget him."
"Are you sure you truly can't let go?"
Mo Chuxi retorted coldly.
Yan Xinxin froze, helplessly twisting her lips into a pout.
She was about to drive herself crazy—mustering up the courage to talk back to this guy for once, only to realize she had just enough courage for one sharp comment.
She really didn't want to provoke him.
"Xinxin, there's someone named 'Lan Lan' calling for you."
Yan Chenxi's childishly clear voice carried across the room. Yan Xinxin quickly shifted her gaze away from Mo Chuxi and turned to grab her phone.
Mo Chuxi watched Yan Xinxin's retreating figure. His brows lowered slightly—Lan Lan? Should be a woman?
When Yan Xinxin answered the call, Lan Xuan's excited voice quickly came through.
"Yan Xinxin, haven't you always wanted to visit a jewelry exhibition? This is your chance!"
Yan Xinxin was taken aback—is Lan Lan talking about the exhibition banquet that Young Master Sheng mentioned just now?
"Yan Xinxin, hurry up and bring your resume along with your portfolio to interview at Di Jue Financial Group's jewelry design department. The chief designer there is looking to take on a single apprentice! If you're selected, you'll get to attend this exhibition alongside them—and your future will be incredibly bright!"
Lan Xuan spoke excitedly, and Yan Xinxin was even more stunned.
The chief designer of Di Jue Financial Group's jewelry department? It's said that they're an incredibly mysterious figure—nobody even knows whether they're male or female...
To say she didn't want to go would be a lie, but...
"Lan Lan, I don't have enough experience right now. Forget becoming that designer's apprentice—I don't think I'd even be considered for an ordinary position."
Lan Xuan refuted her immediately.
"Yan Xinxin, you have talent in this field. Even Teacher Liu said so. Don't you remember that 'Angel's Tears' piece you designed earlier? It earned the highest score in the entire grade! Hurry and register for the interview—if you wait any longer, it'll be too late!"
Lan Xuan strongly encouraged her, and after hanging up the phone, Yan Xinxin suddenly felt her heartbeat quicken.
She really wanted to attend the jewelry exhibition, but first she'd have to become the apprentice of the chief designer. The difficulty of this felt way too high!
Yan Xinxin sighed, glancing down at the time—it was already nearing nine o'clock.
Whether or not she went to register for the interview was a question for later—today was the 10th of the month, and there was somewhere she needed to go first!
