low attack

Sitting back in the car, Zheng Mingxi's mood is very different from that of a few minutes ago. She has always been easy to coax, as long as you are willing to coax her.

Zuo Linyan, who was driving the car, glanced at Zheng Mingxi who was playing with his mobile phone from time to time and asked, "Did Christine bully you?" Just now Zheng Mingxi still didn't tell her why she was unhappy, so she could only guess that she thought so because She also knew some things, and thought that Christine was just coquettish and willful. After all, Christine was still young and was used to being pampered since she was a child, so Zuo Linyan didn't pay much attention to this issue at first.

"No, what can a little kid bully me?" Zheng Mingxi denied. In her eyes, Christine was just a child spoiled by the family who wanted to occupy things that did not belong to her and clamored not to allow others to steal from her.

How could it not be, Zuo Linyan knew that Zheng Mingxi didn't want to embarrass and worry her, "If you are bullied by others, you must tell me, okay?"

"Who would dare to bully me when I have you behind me." On the bright side, no one in the company dared to make things difficult for her because she was Zuo Linyan's girlfriend.

Zuo Linyan smiled, "It's fine if you don't have one." The red eyes of her crying just now really made her feel bad, even though Zheng Mingxi smiled back now.

Another morning, Zheng Mingxi yawned and was dragged into the company by Zuo Linyan. Last night he went to bed very late, and this morning he got up earlier than usual. Due to the cold weather, Zheng Mingxi was very sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Seeing that Zheng Mingxi was obviously sleepy, Zuo Linyan cheered up, because the B&L company representative from New York came over today, so she couldn't be left to stay up, and forced her to go to work, but looked at her sleepy She couldn't bear to look like she couldn't do it, "You can go to the lounge to sleep for a while."

"No, I'll wake up in a while." Zheng Mingxi also knew that the representative of B&L came here today, which is an important cooperation project for J&C, and she was too busy preparing the materials for this cooperation.

Arriving at the 22nd floor and entering the CEO's office, Zheng Mingxi made coffee for Zuo Linyan and also made himself a refreshing cup.

At 9:30, the front desk notified the representative team of B&L that they were taking the elevator to the 22nd floor.Zuo Linyan went out of the office in person and waited in front of the elevator to show her sincerity and attention. In addition to her assistant and secretary, she was accompanied by Mu Yinhan, the chief designer and creative director, and John, the marketing director.

Standing next to Zuo Linyan, Zheng Mingxi was a little trembling and nervous. After all, he was still inexperienced and hadn't been used to such big scenes.

The beating numbers stopped at 22 and the elevator doors opened.

The woman walking in the front of the team is the general manager and designer of B&L. She has dark flaxen pear-blossom medium-length curly hair, a simple gray long coat and a fashionable and novel skirt embellished with tiny prints. The bright colors are particularly eye-catching and modern.

After getting closer to see the appearance of the foreign woman, Zheng Mingxi was surprised, but "Sharon" Zuo Linyan was not surprised because she knew it before.

Sharon took the initiative to extend his hand to greet Zuo Linyan, "Hi, Lin. It's been a long time." Zuo Linyan smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Sharon, "Yes, itis. Welcome to come."

Instead, Sharon squinted at Zheng Mingxi and smiled, walked over to hug Zheng Mingxi and kissed him on the cheek, "We meet again."

Sharon's proactive enthusiasm sent chills down Zheng Mingxi's spine. Her girlfriend was there, with a stiff smile at the corner of her mouth, "Yeah."

Although Zuo Linyan ate, there was no trace of displeasure on his expression, telling himself that this was just western etiquette.A strange light flashed in Mu Yinhan's eyes and he held back a smile, watching the show.Other audience members greeted each other, why this B&L representative is more enthusiastic about an assistant than their president, I don't know what's the story behind it.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone entered the meeting room and began to discuss the cooperation matters. Zheng Mingxi did not participate in this meeting, because there was Tracy and Ellen, and there was no need to go to her place, so he stayed in his place to do other work.

The meeting lasted until noon, Zheng Mingxi felt that he was hungry, why the people in the meeting room hadn't come out yet, Zheng Mingxi was hungry and anxious waiting.

At almost 12:[-], the door of the meeting room was finally opened, Zheng Mingxi stood up and looked forward to it.Zuo Linyan and Sharon who came out were still communicating in English. Sharon invited Zuo Linyan to have lunch together. The main purpose was, "Mingxi, let's go to lunch together."

Zheng Mingxi didn't know whether to agree to look at Zuo Linyan, "It's rare for you and Sharon to meet, so we should get together." There is no way to refuse this meal in public and private, so Zuo Linyan didn't make many excuses.

In the high-end western restaurant, the three chatted about New York, fashion trends, and anecdotes in life. There was no embarrassment as expected, but a relaxed atmosphere of talking and laughing.

"Mingxi, aren't you a design major? I wonder if there is a chance to see your designs?" Sharon asked, taking a sip of red wine.

Zheng Mingxi smiled embarrassedly, "How can there be any works? I haven't drawn for a while, and the previous ones were all school assignments." When it comes to design, she hasn't drawn since she joined J&C as Zuo Linyan's intern assistant. After that, I'm either busy with work or busy with dating, and I don't have that kind of thought at all.Although her grades in school are pretty good and she has won awards in competitions organized by the school, the design works she came into contact with in J&C are really not at the level of elementary school students compared to the works she designed herself.

"It's great pity." Sharon suggested with great interest after a look of regret, "For this joint design event, why not Mingxi work with me on the design?"

Zheng Mingxi was a little panicked, they were not at the same level at all, she was afraid of dragging others down, Zheng Mingxi immediately thought to push it away, "No way, J&C has many excellent designers, any one of them is better than I'm more suitable."

"Why? I really need you." Sharon's tone softened, not wanting to accept Zheng Mingxi's rejection.

Zheng Mingxi wanted to continue to evade, but Zuo Linyan agreed, "Mingxi, you might as well promise Sharon that you can take this opportunity to study hard."

Zheng Mingxi was puzzled. Since Zuo Linyan didn't object, she couldn't think of a better reason to refuse, so she had to bite the bullet and agree, "Okay."

Sharon joked, "My girlfriend agreed as soon as I said it, it's really partial." He stretched out his hand, "Looking forward to cooperating with you, Mypartner." Zheng Mingxi stretched out his hand and held it, "Please give me your advice."

After lunch, Sharon was sent to the hotel where he was staying, and the two returned to the company.

On the way, Zheng Mingxi observed Zuo Lin's face from time to time, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't tell whether he was angry or happy, which made Zheng Mingxi very distressed.

"Is there something on my face? Keep staring at me." It was Zuo Linyan who opened the door first.

Zheng Mingxi probed, "Are you angry?"

"What am I going to be mad at?"

"Sh...Sharon." Zheng Mingxi mentioned the name carefully, seeing that Zuo Linyan didn't show any sign of anger, he was relieved, "It's good that you are not angry." Recalling the time when Zuo Linyan was jealous in New York, Zheng Mingxi thought Think about it and be afraid.

This time I partnered with Sharon, although Zuo Linyan helped agree, but Zheng Mingxi didn't understand why Zuo Linyan agreed?Is it due to the partnership with B&L?

Back at J&C, Zheng Mingxi followed Zuo Linyan into the office. She was thinking about the design with Sharon along the way. She really couldn't do it, and she was afraid that it would affect J&C and the people she loved.

"What's wrong?" Zuo Linyan was worried when he saw Zheng Mingxi's stern face.

"Lin Yan, did you agree because of the cooperation with B&L?" Zheng Mingxi really wanted to find out the reason, but she really couldn't think of other reasons besides this.

"If I really mind, do you think I will compromise because of whomever I work with, no matter how big the benefits are? Mingxi, you partnering with Sharon is just a business for me and J&C, justwork. Do you understand?" Zuo Linyan repeatedly explained to make Zheng Mingxi feel at ease.

"Because this is a business matter, it is related to J&C and you. I know what level I am, and I am simply not qualified for this job. Whether it is Director Mu or any designer in the company, they are more suitable than me. Better than me." Now Zheng Mingxi is no longer worried about whether Zuo Linyan will be jealous, she understands how much she weighs, and for J&C and Zuo Linyan, she can't be so strong.

"Maybe others will do better than you, but Sharon chose you, and I think no one is more suitable than you. Didn't you just start J&C because you wanted to be a designer? There is a great opportunity now In front of you, B&L is a world-renowned brand. This event will be exposed under the lens of the global media. By then, everyone will know your name. You just need to win this battle beautifully, and this starting point is the starting point for other designers. No matter how many years of hard work, you may not be able to achieve success."

This is also the reason why Zuo Linyan agreed. If it wasn't because she wanted to take revenge on the "high school student" who saw her make a fool of herself, and transferred her to the 22nd floor as an assistant, maybe Zheng Mingxi would work hard on the 19th floor. With the job of a design assistant and her dream of being a designer, at least she can do what she likes, instead of entering this document into the computer every day, printing that document, and leaving behind the major she has learned for so many years, so Zuo Lin Yan wanted to make amends, and wanted to help Zheng Mingxi realize her designer dream.

After hearing Zuo Linyan's words, Zheng Mingxi was not happy because of that opportunity, "It's just because I'm your girlfriend that you gave me this opportunity?" It's not because she has the ability to do it, it's just because Zuo Linyan's selfishness.

How could Zuo Linyan not know that Zheng Mingxi's little head was going to think wildly again, "Mingxi, we are not three-year-olds anymore, we all understand the rules of the game in this society, you are my girlfriend, of course I will exist for you Selfishness. You think others are capable, but why don’t you believe in Sharon’s choice, believe in me, believe in yourself, you are more capable of doing this than them, in my eyes you are no worse than them, you are better than Either one is fine."

Gently hugging Zheng Mingxi into her arms, she whispered softly in her ear, "Be brave for me once, okay?"

Zheng Mingxi put her hands tightly around Zuo Linyan's waist, and she was moved by her words, "My dream was never to be a designer, or I don't have any dreams at all. I chose to study design not because I like it, but because I don't know what to do." What major did I choose, but I didn’t like the others, so I went to study when I thought design was acceptable, so I didn’t have much enthusiasm for design. I worked hard to study, and my grades were not bad, which allowed me to successfully enter the J&C internship. Although I was transferred to the 22nd floor as your assistant after only working as a design assistant for a day, you let me understand in the past few months , What exactly do I want, I want to be your assistant instead of a designer, I want to stay on the 22nd floor with you and make coffee for you every day."

Burying her head into Zuo Linyan's arms, her voice was very low, "Do you think I'm worthless?"

Zuo Linyan followed Zheng Mingxi's lead, and said with a smile, "Is it worthless to be my assistant? It's not something anyone can do if they want~"

It made Zheng Mingxi giggle, raised his head and looked into Zuo Linyan's eyes, "I promise you, I will try my best to do my best for this cooperation with B&L."

In order not to disappoint Zuo Linyan, or for herself, she must not shrink back this time, she does not want to be a burden that needs to be taken care of constantly, she needs to be strong, and she also wants to protect her well.
