Don’t be fooled by the old lady’s nonchalant words. Every piece of clothing on the clothes rack was worth six figures.
Qi Min said nonchalantly, “What’s there to be afraid of? Aren’t clothes made for people to wear? Why else would I make them?”
She paused for a moment and looked at Lin Qingqian. The light in her eyes gradually became heavier. “However, these clothes are not given to you for free. You are my disciple so you must make sure my skills will be passed down, understand?”
Lin Qingqian’s heart sank. Her gaze shifted to those cheongsams hanging on the wall. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded solemnly. “Master, don’t worry. I know what to do.”
Qi Min nodded with a gratified expression. “Alright. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first.”
Lin Qingqian went forward to hold her arm. “Master, I’ll send you off.” Qi Min shook her head. “No need. I’m not so old that I can’t walk. Go ahead.”
Lin Qingqian knew that her master wanted to be strong all her life, so she didn’t dare to insist. “Then I’ll call a car for you.”
For that, Qi Min did not refuse.
Lin Qingqian helped her out of the guest room and saw Lu Yuan standing at the door.
Lu Yuan Imew about Qi Min so he said respectfully, “Miss Lin, do you need me to send Master Qi back?”
Lin Qingqian was just about to say that there was no need, but Old Mrs Han beat her to it. “Sure, you may.”
Lu Yuan nodded. “Miss Lin, I’ll send Master Qi back first before coming back to pick you up.”
Lin Qingqian still had to deal with the cheongsams sent by her master, so she nodded slowly.
Qi Min got into the car and waved at Lin Qingqian, indicating for her to go back in quickly.
When the car drove a little further away, the smile on her lips disappeared as she said coldly, “Are you Jiang Yanshen’s man?”
Lu Yuan sat upright like a primary school student being questioned by a teacher. He did not dare to be careless at all. “Yes, Master Qi.”
Qi Min snorted arrogantly and said in a loud voice, “Go back and tell that Jiang fellow that he has delayed Qian Qian’s establishment of Shi Guang Studio for seven long years. I haven’t settled the score with him yet. Tell him to stop pestering our Lin girl in the future! Otherwise, I won’t let him off!”
Lu Yuan ‘
‘Can I not deliver these words to my Boss?’
After Lin Qingqian sent her master off, she returned to the guest room and looked at the twenty cheongsams on the two rows of hangers. Her heart felt heavy, and the burden on her shoulders suddenly became heavy.
Han Liubai handed her a glass of water. “The Old Master thinks very highly of you.”
Lin Qingqian lowered her eyes and muttered, “Yes, Master really thinks highly of me.”
But I kept disappointing her.
Han Liubai: “She wants you to focus on the design of the cheongsam?”
Lin Qingqian’s eyes flashed, and she shook her head with a smile. “Master’s life has been a breeze. Her magnanimity is not something we can compare to. She wants me to push the national culture to the international level, but she also hopes that I won’t forget to inherit her mantle and pass it down.”
Han Liubai’s eyes lit up. “Are you planning to inherit her mantle?”
Lin Qingqian didn’t deny it. “I still have to focus on building the company for the time being. I can only calm down and make cheongsams after everything stabilizes.”
Moreover, she had not touched a cheongsam for several years. Now, she couldn’t do it just because she wanted to.
Han Liubai smiled gently. “You’re so smart. I believe you can do it.”
Lin Qingqian smiled. “Thank you for your kind words.”
Su Ying walked over. “Sister Qingqian, Designer Han, are you guys going to have dinner? Do you need me to book a cafeteria?”
“You can decide.” Lin Qingqian said without hesitation, “I’ll treat you guys to a meal. Oh right…”
As she spoke, she took out two red packets from her pocket and handed them to them. “One each. It’s a blessing.”
Su Ying took the red packet and thanked her happily.
Han Liubai however, raised his eyebrows. “Me too?”
Lin Qingqian nodded. “Of course. You’ve contributed to my success. I’m still counting on you to help me earn big bucks in the new year.”
Han Liubai held the red packet that she had given him. His gaze was so gentle that it could drip water. “A gentleman honors the trust placed in him and would never dare to disappoint..”
