s.h.i.+ Yi stared at his fluttering eyelashes.

She had only known Xu Zhi for half a month, but she felt a sense of familiarity, as if they had known each other for a few years. For example, at this moment, his eyelashes were trembling slightly, so she knew that he was very tempted by this invitation.

Hence, s.h.i.+ Yi didnt ask further. Instead, she leaned against the seat and focused on looking out of the window.

When the car stopped at the entrance of Z University, Xu Zhi said, Ill consider it. Then, he got out of the car.

s.h.i.+ Yi smiled and said goodbye to him. Ill send you the clothes after was.h.i.+ng them tomorrow.

Okay.

At noon the next day, Xu Zhi received a call from home saying that there were guests at home and they asked him to go home for a home-cooked meal.

After tidying up, Xu Zhi remembered that s.h.i.+ Yi had said she would send his clothes today, so he sent s.h.i.+ Yi a message. [I have something on today, so 1 wont be in school.]

After receiving the reply, Xu Zhi rushed home immediately. The guests were already there.

Although they were guests, they were still considered Xu Zhis family.

The people who came were Xu Zhis uncles family, his cousin Xu Xin, Xu Lang, and cousin-in-law Jiang Heng. As the only child of the Xu familys second branch, people had high hopes for Xu Xin.

Xu Zhis father hoped that he could learn company management and manage the company in the future to inherit the family business. However, Xu Zhi resolutely chose fas.h.i.+on design and even fell out with his family for a long time over this matter.

When Xu Zhi rushed back, the food was already placed on the dining table. Everyone was already in position, leaving only an empty seat for Xu Zhi.

Xu Zhi hurriedly took the towel from the servant and wiped his hands clean before sitting down at the dining table. Only then did the home-cooked meal officially begin.

Xu Zhis eldest uncles family must have specifically come for Xu Zhi today because they kept asking about Xu Zhis work throughout the meal.

First, his cousin-in-law, Jiang Heng, asked, Cousin, youll be graduating in June this year, right?

Xu Zhi hurriedly swallowed the spicy beef in his mouth and looked into Jiang Hengs eyes as he replied, Yes, Im currently in the midst of applying for graduation.

Xu Xin picked up a piece of fungus and placed it on Jiang Hengs plate. Then, she said, Then youve probably thought about where you want to work, right? I heard that your mentor is w.a.n.g Jiao from the w.a.n.g Corporation. Shes very good at designing clothes. Are you planning to continue following her?

Xu Zhi and s.h.i.+ Yi had just discussed this question last night, so it was very easy to answer it.

Xu Zhi replied, Madam w.a.n.g has already invited me, but I think the w.a.n.g Corporation has too many outstanding designers. Even if I go, itll be very difficult for me to showcase my skills. Now, there are a few other companies that have invited me. Im still considering it.

Oh really? Xu Xin continued to ask, But entering the w.a.n.g Corporation is an affirmation of your ability. Not everyone can enter the w.a.n.g Corporation just because they want to.

Jiang Heng interrupted her. You dont understand. Clothing designers dont rely on time to acc.u.mulate experience. They rely on their work. There are so many outstanding designers in the w.a.n.g family, so Xu Zhis designs might be very difficult to adopt.

Xu Lang added, Yes, and 1 heard that at the fas.h.i.+on show last night, Xu Zhi won first place in mens clothing design. There must be many people extending offers to him, and there must be many outstanding companies, right?

As he said the last sentence, Xu Lang looked at Xu Zhi, obviously waiting for his answer.

Xu Zhi explained humbly, There are a few good companies, and of course, there are also a few new companies, but Im not in a hurry to answer them now. Anyway, theres still some time before graduation, so I can carefully figure out the development of these companies.

Jiang Heng nodded, expressing his affirmation of Xu Zhis words. Then, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something. By the way, your cousin Xu Lang has just bought over a company, Down Ridge Clothes Workshop. Its a shortage of people now.. Why dont you go to his company for an interns.h.i.+p?
