Perhaps… even if she ruined the original plot, she would be fine?

If that was the case, that would be great.

However, she still could not be careless. She had to continue being vigilant. After all, if she was erased, she would not have a chance like this to start over her life again.

… .

Jian Huaiyu stayed up late last night. When he arrived at the shop in the morning, he was still yawning, looking lazy and sleepy.

Xie Angan teased when he saw this, “Did you go on a date with your little girlfriend yesterday? You were so excited that you couldn’t sleep the entire night?”

“Brother Qian, she’s not my girlfriend,” Jian Huaiyu explained. He went to wash his face with cold water to clear his mind.

There were not many guests in the morning. Xie Angan was sorting out his design drafts. When he heard this, he came over. “Is she really not your girlfriend?”

Although Jian Huaiyu’s mind was still a little confused, he could tell that something was wrong with his tone. He glanced at him warily and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“That woman is good-looking and has a great figure. She looks quite good to me. If she’s really not your girlfriend, I’ll go after her.”

Jian Huaiyu’s eyes flickered and the smile on his face faded a little. “Brother Qian, stop joking. You don’t even know each other. Why are you chasing after her?”

“It doesn’t matter if we didn’t know each other in the past. Don’t I still have you?”

Xie Angan didn’t seem to see Jian Huaiyu’s unhappy expression. He chuckled and said, “Huaiyu, aren’t we good brothers? Why don’t you pull the strings…”

“I’m sorry, I can’t help you with this.”

Jian Huaiyu refused with a cold expression. After a moment, he said, “She’s mine.”

“???” Xie Angan was stunned. “Didn’t you say that she’s not your girlfriend?”

“Not right now. But in the future, she will be mine.”

Jian Huaiyu replied firmly, “So, Brother Qian, it’s better if you don’t have any ideas about her.”

Xie Angan clicked his tongue and did not continue speaking.

Coincidentally, Pu Yonghe came to the shop at this moment. Jian Huaiyu called out respectfully, “Teacher.”

Xie Angan immediately went up to him with his design draft. “Teacher, I’ve finished drawing the materials you asked me to design two days ago. Please take a look.”

Pu Yonghe nodded and followed him to the coffee table.

Jian Huaiyu was wiping the glass of the display cabinet when Pu Yonghe shouted, “Little Jian, it’s still early and there aren’t many guests. Come over and take a look too.”

“That’s right.” Xie Angan continued, “Teacher has always said that designing landscape paintings is my forte. You should learn something too.”

Although he felt that Xie Angan’s words were a little ear-piercing, Jian Huaiyu had always been very diligent in his studies. In addition, Pu Yonghe had called out to him, so Jian Huaiyu did not say anything and walked over quietly.

In order to make the drawings look more suitable for the raw materials, Xie Angan had even specially moved those materials over.

“Teacher, the material of this high-grade snow cotton jade is especially profound. It’s just that the lower right corner is a little flawed. I think it’s not bad to carve a cedar here. The uneven cedar can cover the flaws.

The snowy night, the hut, and the mist not only showed off the sculpture’s foundation, but the scene is also very beautiful.”

Pu Yonghe sized up the high grade snow cotton jade material and then looked at his design draft. His face was expressionless.

Xie Angan looked at him expectantly. “Teacher, what do you think?”

Every time there was new material in the shop, Pu Yonghe would take out some as tests to let them design. If there was something suitable, he would use it. If it was not suitable, he would redesign it himself.

Xie Angan had entered the industry three years before Jian Huaiyu and had always been very hardworking. However, he felt that recently, Pu Yonghe preferred to bring Jian Huaiyu out than his eldest disciple, so he was in a hurry to produce results.

Jian Huaiyu stood at the side. From Pu Yonghe’s expression, he knew that he was not very satisfied with this design draft.

As he was thinking, Pu Yonghe looked at him. “Little Jian, if it were you, how would this material be designed?”

“This…” Jian Huaiyu glanced at Xie Angan beside him and hesitated.

Xie Angan’s expression was a little stiff, but he said magnanimously, “Why are you looking at me? If Teacher asks, just say it. Isn’t it normal for everyone to discuss the most suitable plan before the draft is finalized?”

Pu Yonghe also said, “Just tell me your thoughts honestly.”

Jian Huaiyu nodded and said, “I remember Teacher saying that if a piece of material is perfect enough, we should try our best to preserve the material and keep it natural and pure. Complex carvings will seem unnecessary.”

Pu Yonghe nodded repeatedly. “That’s right. This material is clean and bright with a high luster. It’s a top-grade material in itself.”

Xie Angan said indignantly, “But the patch of cotton pattern in the lower right corner greatly affects its value. We can’t cut off this corner for the sake of preserving the rest of the jade, right?”

“The proportion of this cotton pattern is not big, and it’s only floating on the surface. I think this material is very suitable for the theme of fishing alone. The lower right corner can be designed as the unmelted ice on the shore of the river. The floating cotton pattern area happens to be suitable for carving a human shaped figure, causing the patch to look less conspicuous. It won’t look abrupt and can retain the natural beauty of the jade to a large extent.

Even if there’s some leftover cotton pattern that hasn’t been processed, it’s very likely that it will scatter after being polished.”

Pu Yonghe nodded repeatedly, looking quite satisfied.

“Little Xie, it’s a good thing that you’re creative, but you have to remember that we carve jade to emphasize the strengths of the jade and avoid showing its weaknesses. We want to uncover its beauty and not just use it to display our skills.”

Hearing Pu Yonghe’s guidance, Xie Angan’s expression stiffened. His hands that hung by his side subconsciously clenched, but his tone was still respectful. “Thank you for your guidance, Teacher. I’ll remember it.”

Pu Yonghe praised Jian Huaiyu again and handed him the material of the high-grade ice snow cotton jade. “Since you came up with this idea, I’ll leave this material to you to carve.”

“But Brother Gan…”

Jian Huaiyu was worried that Xie Angan would think that he was deliberately embarrassing him.

Xie Angan’s lips twitched as he revealed a smile that was uglier than crying. “You’re more suitable for this material than me. Ensuring the quality of the products is above everything else.”

“Thank you, Brother Gan.”

Jian Huaiyu did not refuse anymore.

Xie Angan had designed a total of seven design blueprints. Only two had successfully passed the draft, and two needed minor changes. The remaining two that needed to be redesigned were also handed over to Jian Huaiyu like before.

“Oh right.”

Just as the two of them were about to leave, Pu Yonghe stopped Jian Huaiyu again. “Last night, Cai Lin asked me to make an accessory for her. I heard that you negotiated a collaboration with her?”

“Yes. I heard that Sister Cai obtained a purple jade that weighed a few kilograms and wanted to make it into an accessory. I’ve looked for a few jade carving masters but they couldn’t come to an agreement.

I’ve seen that purple jade before. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s top-grade. If Teacher is willing to make a move, this work will definitely be able to leave a huge mark on Teacher’s resume.”
