Although she was full of surprise, Ye Yingning still greeted politely: "Hello, Miss Siobhan, I am Ye Yingning."

A polite smile came from the other end, and soon, Siobhan went straight to the topic and said: "Miss Ye, it was Ms. Laura who specially entrusted me to convey her gratitude to you. Thank you for participating again after so many years. She knows how important this is to you.

It means a lot to me.”

Ye Yingning thanked her again and quietly tried to figure out Rebecca Lola's deeper purpose - was she intentionally wooing her, or was she for another purpose?

Sure enough, after chatting for a few words, Siobhan changed the topic and cautiously said: "I wonder what Miss Ye has in mind about this competition? I will fly to Zhonghai City first next week and be mainly responsible for the preparations for this competition.

Regarding the matter, why don’t we chat first and get familiar with each other’s thoughts?”

Ye Yingning subconsciously looked at the full-length mirror in front of her. She saw herself in the mirror with her slender eyebrows furrowed, and her eyes showing doubts and confusion: she didn't quite understand what Siobhan meant by "considering".

It seems that we have no choice but to practice Tai Chi first and adopt a roundabout strategy.

"Since I am taking part in the competition, I naturally want to make progress and achieve results that satisfy me. But I also know very well that every jewelry design competition hosted by Laura Group is full of talents..."

Ye Yingning held her cell phone and spoke slowly while thinking about it. She didn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, so she didn't say anything.

She has been dormant for too long. The newcomer award that year has long been forgotten by many people. After many years, no matter how shiny the trophy is, it will inevitably become dusty and dim.

For Ye Yingning, this time is a new turning point and a new starting point in her life. Her ambition is far greater than others imagined.

It's not that he couldn't hear the caution in her words, Siobhan chuckled, and after she finished speaking, he clearly expressed the fundamental purpose of his call this time.

"Ms. Luo La admires you very much and said that she can vaguely see her young self in your works. Frankly speaking, I called you just to ask if you are interested in joining Luo La Group. If there are no accidents, you will be able to join Luo La Group in 6 months.

, a subsidiary company will be established under the Rolla Group, and its business direction will be the customization of high-end wedding rings specifically for Asian newlyweds."

Siobhan's words shocked Ye Yingning. This could be regarded as a big business secret. For a moment, she was speechless.

"Of course, you don't need to give an answer immediately. After all, this is a very important career choice. I am just entrusted by Ms. Lola to contact you first, and I also wish you all the best in this competition. If there is any

If you have any questions, you can contact me at any time.”

Obviously, both Rebecca Lola and Siobhan are very clear that anyone, including Ye Yingning, needs enough time to consider when facing this kind of thing. Urging or forcing will not have any effect.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Yingning's originally calm mood was instantly disrupted. She paced back and forth in the bedroom, weighing and thinking carefully.

Rolla Group has offered itself an olive branch. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity that cannot be missed. Moreover, in order to build momentum and publicity for the new company, it may even promote itself in this competition as a gimmick; but on the other hand,

Lingyan was her old employer for many years, and had protected her from wind and rain for many years, and her treatment had always been good. Su Qingchi was straightforward and generous, and she was happy to get along with her. Moreover, she strongly recommended that she participate in this competition.

If you go, it’s to chase your dreams and fame and fortune; if you don’t go, it’s to repay appreciation and friendship.

At this time, Ye Yingning, who was extremely helpless, longed as never before for someone by her side to help make decisions, or even just listen to her thoughts quietly.

However, she couldn't find such a candidate.

Ye Yingning picked up her phone dejectedly, dug out her address book, and logged into all the instant messaging software on her phone. She scrolled from top to bottom, but really, really couldn't find it.

Watching the numbers flashing on the screen, time passed by minute by second, and finally after 12 o'clock, she realized that there were only 3 days left before her birthday.

When I was young, I was so eager to celebrate my birthday every year that I would even count down the days with my fingers.

The birthday celebrations for the children in the orphanage were not as good as ordinary people. They just had a bowl of longevity noodles with an egg in it. The director was partial to her and always secretly hid another one under the noodles and served it to her calmly.

Finally, there was a fragrant and tender egg at the bottom of the bowl. It felt like falling into heaven.

She recalled the past, lying on the bed, and a drop of clear tears gradually slipped from the corner of her eyes.

Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep again tonight, Ye Yingning finally jumped up, changed her clothes, took her keys and went out.

*****

Ye Yingning drove all the way to "Fengqing", which was known as the "most decadent" bar in Zhonghai City. It was also the bar where she met Chong Tiange last time.

One o'clock in the morning is the busiest time, not too early, not too late, just right.

During the time when she was recuperating, Ye Yingning came here every week. The more times she came, the more "fengqing" bartenders got to know her and knew her surname was Ye. She always came and left alone, so she gave her tips.

There are many, so as soon as he saw her come in, he immediately welcomed her warmly.

"Miss Ye, I haven't been here for a long time."

The bartender remembered her taste, moved quickly, skillfully prepared a low-alcohol soft drink, and pushed it over diligently.

Ye Yingning subconsciously touched her cheek, took a sip, and then said slightly surprised: "How long?"

It seemed that she was really overwhelmed by the busy work during this period, and she no longer had a clear concept of time.

The bartender said yes repeatedly and chatted for a while. Seeing that she seemed not to be interested, he stopped disturbing her.

A person is sitting against the bar, and on the stage in the distance is a foreign female singer singing in a low voice. There is endless sadness in the melodious music. The lazy and casual rhythm of bossa nova is very suitable for such loneliness.

night.

Lonely, yes, lonely, she is very lonely.

It was just a song. The woman, speaking not very fluent Chinese, held the microphone and said: "On a night like this, making love will not be wasted."

A burst of crazy applause immediately sounded off the stage, which lasted for a long time, and there were also sharp whistles one after another.

Even Ye Yingning couldn't help laughing and shaking her head, her mood seemed to brighten up in an instant.

She has no interest in rushing to the dance floor to dance, and she doesn't like to have close contact with strangers, so she just drinks some wine at the bar. When she feels sleepy, she takes a taxi home and falls asleep.

Raising his hand and snapping his fingers, Ye Yingning asked the bartender to mix another drink for him, and then jumped down from the high chair. As soon as he stood firm, he turned around and almost bumped into someone.

"ah!"

She let out a low cry, twisted the high heels on her feet hard, and almost fell down.

The man had quick eyes and quick hands. He supported her and almost pulled her into his arms.

"Why are you so careless?"

There was a familiar voice above his head, and there was a faint smell of wine. It seemed that he had been coming to "Fengqing" for a while.

Ye Yingning raised her head and met those delicate eyes, which were narrow and beautiful. Under the light of the light, her pupils were glowing with amber light.
