"Wanwan, look, we can make the shape of the wheat ears more exaggerated, and then add some tassels on it. This way we can keep the wheat ears simple while adding some movement and magnificence."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the shallow sketch and her eyes gradually brightened.

"Yes, yes, that's great. We can also add some asymmetry to the bottom of the crown, so that the whole design will be more unique."

Ms. Xianyang nodded with satisfaction. "Very good. I look forward to seeing your finished design."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian were immersed in new design ideas when the shop door was pushed open again and an older man walked in.

He was wearing a plain grey robe, with a gentle smile on his face and a look of deep wisdom in his eyes.

"Master Zhongshan!" Zhou Wanwan exclaimed in surprise and hurried to greet him.

Master Zhongshan is Zhou Wanwan's teacher and also a famous jewelry designer in China.

Not only is he a skilled artist, he is also known for inspiring creativity in his students.

"Wanwan, I heard that you encountered some design difficulties, so I came to see you." Master Zhongshan said with a smile.

Zhou Wanwan smiled a little embarrassedly and handed the sketch to Master Zhongshan.

"Teacher, you've come just in time. We are designing a crown with wheat ears as the theme for Ms. Xianyang."

Master Zhongshan took the sketch, looked at it carefully, and nodded.

"Well, this design has potential, but it seems to be lacking some soul."

When Ms. Xianyang heard this, she asked curiously, "Soul? What do you mean?"

Master Zhongshan smiled and explained: "Every design should have its own soul. It is not just a decoration, but also an expression of emotion. Although the wheat ear is simple, it represents harvest and hope, which is its soul."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian looked at each other and both suddenly realized something.

"Teacher, do you mean that we should incorporate more emotional elements into the design?" Zhou Wanwan asked.

Master Zhongshan nodded. "That's right. You can try to find inspiration from the growth process of wheat ears, such as its tenacity and its vitality. These are elements that can be incorporated into the design."

Qianqian excitedly picked up a pencil and quickly sketched out some new ideas.

"Wanwan, look, we can make the shape of the wheat ears more natural, and then add some elements that symbolize vitality, such as some tiny vines and flowers."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the shallow sketch and her eyes gradually brightened.

"Yes, yes, that's great. We can add some elements that symbolize toughness to the bottom of the crown, such as some tiny thorns, so that the whole design will have a more layered feel."

Ms. Xianyang looked at the new sketch and nodded with satisfaction.

“This design is very interesting and I am looking forward to seeing the finished product.”

Master Zhongshan looked at Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.

"Your design has great potential, but it still needs some fine-tuning."

Zhou Wanwan asked nervously, "Teacher, how do you think we should adjust?"

Master Zhongshan walked to the workbench, picked up a pencil, and lightly sketched a few strokes on the sketch.

"You see, we can add some tiny diamonds here to symbolize the dew on the wheat ears. This will increase the gorgeousness of the design while keeping the simplicity of the wheat ears."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian looked carefully at Master Zhongshan's revisions, and both of them suddenly realized something.

"Teacher, you are so awesome!" Zhou Wanwan exclaimed sincerely.

Master Zhongshan smiled and patted Zhou Wanwan's shoulder gently.

“Design is an art that requires constant learning and exploration. You have done a great job, keep up the good work.”

Zhou Wanwan was full of confidence as she held the sketch revised by Master Zhongshan.

However, when she faced the dazzling array of gems on the counter, she felt a little confused.

"Wanwan, look at these gems. Each one has its own unique charm." Ms. Xianyang said, pointing at the gems on the counter.

Zhou Wanwan nodded. She knew that Ms. Xianyang wanted her to choose the most suitable gem for the wheat ear crown.

However, she didn't know which one to start choosing.

"Teacher, which gem do you think we should choose?" Zhou Wanwan asked.

Master Zhongshan smiled and patted Zhou Wanwan's shoulder gently.

"Wanwan, every gem has its own characteristics. You just need to feel it with your heart, and you can find the most suitable one."

After listening to Master Zhongshan's words, Zhou Wanwan's heart moved. She picked up the gems one by one, observed them carefully, and tried to feel their characteristics with her heart.

"The color of this gem is very bright, like dewdrops on wheat ears in spring." Zhou Wanwan picked up a green gem and said.

Ms. Xianyang nodded. "This gem is indeed very beautiful, and its color fits the theme of wheat ears very well."

Master Zhongshan smiled and said, "In that case, then choose this gem. Next, you just need to incorporate this gem into the design, and you will have a brand new wheat ear crown."

Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian nodded, and they began to get busy, incorporating gems into the design.

However, when they placed the gemstones in the design, they found that the colors of the gemstones did not match the wheat theme.

"The color of this gem is too bright and doesn't quite match the theme of wheat ears," said Zhou Wanwan.

Ms. Xianyang nodded in disappointment. "Indeed, the color of this gem is a little too bright."

Master Zhongshan glanced at them and smiled. "It's okay, that's how design works. Sometimes you need to try, and sometimes you need to give up. You've done a great job, so don't blame yourself too much."

After listening to Master Zhongshan's words, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian felt a little relieved.

"Teacher, how should we adjust the design?" Zhou Wanwan asked.

Master Zhongshan thought for a moment and said, "You can adjust the color of the gemstone to make it closer to the color of the wheat ear."

After listening to Master Zhongshan's words, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian had an idea and began to adjust the color of the gems.

"This looks much better." Zhou Wanwan said, looking at the new design.

Ms. Xianyang also nodded. "Indeed, this design is closer to the theme of wheat ears."

Master Zhongshan smiled and said, "You have done a good job. You just need to keep working hard to complete this design."

After listening to Master Zhongshan's words, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian were filled with confidence.

They began to get busy, adjusting the design to make it more perfect.
