Chapter 408: Second Brother, We’re Going to Have a Parent-Teacher Meeting
When G&S had held an Autumn and Winter press conference at the Malong Center, when he had seen the “Flowers and the Moon” collection, he had guessed that Ning and Tree’s Shadow were the same person.
At that time, Cheng Xiyue had even specifically asked him if he wanted to ask George about it.
With Lu Huaiyu’s ident.i.ty, George would surely give him face.
However, he had rejected it.
Now that he was watching this, it made him even more certain of his thoughts.
He stared at the phone screen and pondered this for a long time.
In truth, if he insisted, it was not necessarily impossible to see this person.
It was just that–
Since the other party had been unwilling all along, there was no meaning in forcing it.
Cheng Xiyue’s message popped out.
[ Lu Er, you really don’t plan on asking? ]
After a long time, Lu Huaiyu replied with one word.
[ Hmm. ]
He turned off his phone screen.
This was Ning’s independent design press conference, yet no one had appeared.
Not to mention, he wanted to meet the person with the painting.
…
At 11 pm, Ning Li received a call from Lin Fengmian.
This was the second time the two of them had spoken since the last Winter Camp.
Ning Li remembered that he had gone to watch the G&S show today, so she pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
“Mian?”
The clean and well-behaved youth’s voice came from the receiver.
“Sister, are you busy?”
Ning Li laughed.
“I’m fine.”
The compet.i.tion had ended, but she had not signed a contract with any university.
Lin Fengmian knew that she had recently returned to Yunzhou Second High to attend cla.s.ses and prepare for the college entrance exam.
Thus, he had not contacted her much, afraid of disturbing her.
But today…
Lin Fengmian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel room and looked outside.
The night in the Capital city was always brightly lit.
He said, “Sister, I went to watch the G&S Spring and Summer show today.”
Ning Li said, “Yes, I know.”
Lin Fengmian’s eyes curved, his voice filled with surprise.
“Sister, you watched the live broadcast?”
Then… she must have seen him too, right?
“I did.”
Ning Li thought of something and asked, “You seem to have a good relations.h.i.+p with Edmund. Is G&S planning to discuss a collaboration with you?”
This was something that needed to be kept a secret.
However, the person who had asked was her.
Lin Fengmian said, “Yes.”
“Yes, we’re discussing the brand amba.s.sador position for the men’s ready-to-wear series.”
This could be considered as a giant pie. No matter who it hit, they would probably laugh until they went crazy.
Originally, with Lin Fengmian’s qualifications, he did not have enough to be a candidate.
Edmund really admired him a lot. Even George had relaxed after seeing him and sent him an invitation to sit in the first row of seats.
As a top luxury brand, G&S had never had a spokesperson before. Now, because they wanted to expand the market in China, they had begun to choose brand amba.s.sadors.
Logically speaking, for such a brand, the criteria for selecting people was very high.
However, George was free and easy in doing things. He valued the degree of compatibility between the individual and the G&S brand.
If not for this, they would not have eliminated the popular A-list and chosen Tang Wei.
Now, they had taken a liking to Lin Fengmian.
“That’s good.”
Ning Li’s voice carried a smile.
Lin Fengmian was born for the stage, and he was a natural idol.
As long as he was given the chance and time, he would definitely grow into a truly dazzling superstar.
When Lin Fengmian heard her laugh, he also laughed.
He paused for a moment, then asked in a low and careful voice,
“Sister, when are you free? I’ll go and visit you.”
Ning Li thought for a moment, then smiled and said, “I’m afraid it’s not convenient at the moment. Your every move right now is being watched by people.”
Lin Fengmian’s traffic was huge, and the paparazzi followed closely.
Whatever he did, it would be magnified infinitely.
So now, it was indeed difficult to find a suitable time.
The smile on Lin Fengmian’s lips gradually disappeared, and his beautiful lips were pursed.
Ning Li sensed his low mood.
He was always like this. When he was unhappy, he rarely spoke.
After a while, Lin Fengmian said softly, “Then… shall we meet after the college entrance exams?”
The youth’s clean voice had a rare hint of coquettishness.
She should have some time by then.
Ning Li agreed.
“Okay.”
Lin Fengmian smiled again.
“Then, I’ll wait for sister.”
…
The popularity of the G&S show was very high, and the online discussions about it had always been high.
When Ning Li had come to cla.s.s on Monday, she could hear a few girls discussing this topic excitedly during cla.s.s time.
He Xiaochen’s phone wallpaper had been changed to a picture of Tang Wei’s appearance, and she would take it out to admire it whenever she had the time.
Ning Li seemed to stay out of it.
Only when she had received the money transfer from G&S did she nod her head affirmatively: the show had indeed been well done.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was now early April.
The annual spring sports meet of Yunzhou Second High was held.
The entire sports meet lasted for three days.
However, this had nothing to do with the senior year.
They were given special permission to not partic.i.p.ate in any events.
The entire campus was bustling with activity, especially on the playground. The freshmen and soph.o.m.ore cla.s.ses held flags and waved them. All the events were in full swing.
Cheers and shouts echoed throughout the entire Second High school campus. They also continuously rushed into the quiet cla.s.sroom of the senior year school’s teaching building.
“There are only two months left until the college entrance examination. The results of the first model examination that was held at the end of last month have already been released.”
In First Cla.s.s’ cla.s.sroom, Geng Haifan stood on the podium, holding a report card in his hand,
“This time–”
“Youth is like fire! Surpa.s.s yourself!”
A pa.s.sionate slogan was heard from the broadcast.
Geng Haifan looked outside irritably.
“This time, the exact test paper is relatively simple, but it is still very meaningful for reference. You guys–”
“Ninth cla.s.s, ninth cla.s.s! Extraordinary!”
Geng Haifan’s words were interrupted again.
This shout was so pa.s.sionate that several students in the cla.s.sroom could not help but look outside.
Although they could not see the field from this position, it did not stop them from feeling distracted.
Geng Haifan slapped the report card on the desk.
“The parent-teacher conference will be held at three o’clock tomorrow afternoon!”
…
Parent-teacher conference.
After dinner, Ning Li had sat down in the small pavilion on the campus. She held her phone in her hand and turned it around.
She had always attended her own parent-teacher conferences.
Especially with her results this time in the model examinations, she was still the first in the entire city.
It did not matter whether she found someone to come or not.
However–
She hesitated for a while and made a call.
It rang for a long time. Just as Ning Li was about to hang up, the other side finally picked up.
“Ah Li?”
Lu Huaiyu’s voice sounded low and hoa.r.s.e as if he had just woken up, and there was a hint of laziness in it.
Ning Li’s heart skipped a beat.
“Second Brother, did I wake you up?”
Lu Huaiyu laughed.
“No, I’ve been awake for a while. What’s wrong?”
Ning Li felt that his words were not very believable.
Lu Huaiyu always had to rest at that time in the afternoon.
If that was the case, then tomorrow’s parent-teacher conference–
“Oh, that’s good.”
After she said this, she did not know how to broach the topic of the parent-teacher conference with him.
It seemed a little strange.
Lu Huaiyu had come to Second High a few times before, but this was the first time she had directly asked him to come.
It was still different.
Lu Huaiyu was still waiting for her to speak.
“Hmm?”
Ning Li paused for a moment, then whispered, “Second Brother, we’re having a parent-teacher conference at three o’clock tomorrow afternoon.”
