The clients needed the design very urgently, so Gu Yan did not waste any more time on other matters. Handling this matter with Gu Manman would be considered as Gu Yan returning the favor to Qi Changfeng. She had always remembered it in her heart. But if Gu Manman could not get the job done, Gu Yan could only let Qi Changfeng down again.
Gu Yan did not think much about it and buried herself in her work. Although she wanted to avoid the problem between her and Mo Yichen, she could not avoid it forever. In the end, she had to go back and solve the problem. Trying to avoid it would not help with the current situation.
So Gu Yan only took the opportunity to relax when she returned to work in Annan City. Even though the intensity of the work was too high and she had to bury herself in work, but it at least would give Gu Yan a chance to relax herself a little from emotions. She had been too depressed recently in dealing with the relationship with Mo Yichen.
This wasn’t the emotional state that she wanted. Since she had already come to Annan City, she wouldn’t think about these things for the time being and had to focus on the work at hand. She knew that she needed to compromise in terms of relationships, but she couldn’t compromise in her career.
Just like that, a few days passed. Gu Yan’s design this time was just like what Jiang Jingcheng had said – not easy. Her previous expectations were too good, and the design this time was rather troublesome to deal with. In order to satisfy the clients, Gu Yan had to work day and night to give them a satisfactory response.
It was too difficult to establish a foothold in the industry. Gu Yan had never felt that it was such a simple thing. It was indeed to walk on this path while the obstacles were too many.
After a few days of working, a part of the design that Gu Yan made had finally worked with the clients. Gu Yan also breathed a sigh of relief as she could relax a little. Since they were satisfied with this part of the design, she had a rough idea of the style they liked. The subsequent designs should not be so difficult to make.
In recent days, Gu Yan worked overtime until late at night every day before returning home. When she got off work and went home, Mo Xiangyan must have fallen asleep. It was not good for her to call home at that time. But when she was in the studio, there were always so many things that she had to do.
Gu Yan felt that she had been very busy recently and didn’t even have any me-time. She knew it in her heart that Li Yunhong must be very dissatisfied with her recent actions, but what could Gu Yan do? She couldn’t possibly abandon her career for her family. She didn’t want to be the kind of woman who only tendered her husband and children at home.
Gu Yan cared about the studio, because it was not only her career, but also her hobby. It was something that she wanted to pursue for her entire life.
It was noon again and the studio was quiet. Everyone should have gone to eat. Gu Yan stretched for a bit. She had to stretch first, otherwise, her whole body would feel stiff from the tiring work.
The moment she moved, cracking sounds emanated from her entire body. She had really sat there for too long.
She walked out of the office and wanted to take a walk in the studio. After walking a few rounds, she managed to alleviate her tiredness. When she walked over, she saw Jiang Jingcheng sneaking around.
“Whose workplace is this?” Gu Yan thought about it carefully. “Isn’t this Gu Manman’s position? What’s Jiang Jingcheng doing here?”
Gu Yan found it strange. What was Jiang Jingcheng doing at Gu Manman’s workplace? Gu Yan originally wanted to call out to him, but she was afraid that she would scare him if she suddenly spoke, so she just stood there like that. When he had finished what he was doing, he would see her. If he saw her by himself, he would not be scared, so she did not hurry to speak.
However, to her surprise, Jiang Jingcheng was still shocked at seeing her. When he raised his head and saw Gu Yan standing right in front of him, Jiang Jingcheng was scared out of his wits. He already had a guilty conscience while he had sneakily come here to peek at Gu Manman’s things, and now, Gu Yan had suddenly appeared.
Jiang Jingcheng was so scared that he could not speak. Gu Yan saw his guilty look and found it funny, but it was really not the right time for her to laugh right now.
Gu Yan pulled a long face and walked away without saying a word. Jiang Jingcheng knew that he would not be able to escape her interrogation, so he followed her into her office with a guilty conscience. She had seen his embarrassed side, which made him feel really awkward.
“What were you doing just now?”
Gu Yan purposely put on a stern expression because she knew that as long as she looked amiable, Jiang Jingcheng would not tell her the truth.
As expected, when Jiang Jingcheng saw how serious Gu Yan was, which was quite rare to see, he felt guilty. After all, he was in the wrong today. Gu Yan would definitely find what he had just done inappropriate. Jiang Jingcheng also knew that no matter who saw what he had done today, they would be suspicious.
But should he tell Gu Yan what he was doing? Would Gu Yan feel that he wasn’t willing to give the youngster a chance?
