Although Gu Yan had a lot of troubles weighing on her mind, she fell asleep the moment her head touched the pillow, because her physical exhaustion had reached a limit. Whether she wanted to slumber or not, she instinctively fell asleep.

Although she was in her dreams, there were all kinds of messy things in them that made her unable to have a good night’s sleep.

Early the next morning, Gu Yan woke up. When she opened her eyes, she could feel the sourness in them. However, she had no choice but to go to work. She fumbled in the kitchen and took some ice cubes from the refrigerator. She rolled them up in a towel and applied it to her eyes for a while. She felt much better before taking the towel down.

After that, she went to wash up, but when she saw herself in the mirror, she was shocked. How could her eyes be so swollen? Although she knew yesterday that her eyes might be a little puffy by the next day, she did not expect them to be so swollen. Yet this was the result she got after she applied the ice cubes.

Gu Yan felt very helpless. Even if her eyes were swollen like walnuts, didn’t she still have to go to work? Yesterday, she had promised Qi Changfeng that she would help him guide Gu Manman in her design. Since she had agreed to do that, she would go back to work in the studio today.

Although Qi Changfeng only said that he wanted Gu Yan to instruct Gu Manman, Gu Yan was not sure if she could get to do that. She had been stunned and satisfied by Gu Manman’s work performance before, but now she was not sure if Gu Manman actually had the ability.

She didn’t know whether she would guide Gu Manman in the design or just do the work for her when she got to the studio. Gu Yan got a little distressed by it, but she also knew that these troubles could only be solved by handling them one by one.

Furthermore, recently, the workload of the studio was not light. Gu Yan knew that when she was not in the studio, Jiang Jingcheng had shouldered a lot of responsibilities and helped her with a lot of work.

As Gu Yan was thinking about these things, she started to put on her makeup. With her current appearance, how could she go outdoors without makeup on? If others were to see what she looked like when she went out with that scruffy look, there would be a lot of gossip about it. Gu Yan knew that her image was still very important in the studio. She did not want to be judged and gossiped about by others because of her appearance.

When Qi Changfeng woke up today, he had a massive headache. However, he endured it and called Gu Manman to tell her that he had already told Gu Yan to go back to the studio to instruct her. If she refused to cooperate, it would be embarrassing for him.

He knew Gu Manman’s character and that she could be difficult to deal with. Yesterday, Qi Changfeng didn’t tell her about this because it was a little late by then and he knew that she might have gone to bed, so he chose to call her early in the morning. Otherwise, when she went to work, she might not know that Gu Yan was going to guide her and then the two of them would have a big misunderstanding.

Also, Qi Changfeng couldn’t allow Gu Yan to misunderstand him again. Last night, he had drunk so much that he had felt dizzy. But he had always been thinking about this matter, afraid that Gu Yan would be displeased with him again. He bitterly smiled at the thought of this. When had he ever been so overcareful?

“Hello, Changfeng?”

Gu Manman’s voice was hoarse. As soon as Qi Changfeng heard it, he knew that this girl had not yet gotten up, but what he did not know was that she had not fallen asleep last night. She had tossed and turned on her bed, and her mind had been filled with a mess of things. She kept feeling distressed about Jiang Jingcheng’s attitude toward her, as well as her work.

Between those two things, she was more worried about her design. Although Qi Changfeng had made it very clear that he would help her solve it, she still felt worried. After all, he was not familiar with designing. Although she was also very clear that he was very capable and had a wide range of interpersonal relationships, she could not help worrying.

As a result, she barely slept the whole night. It was not until the sky was just beginning to brighten that she fell asleep. Not long after she did that, Qi Changfeng called her. She felt helpless with the phone call, but she also knew very well that it was because of her problem that he rang her up. She did not dare to be dissatisfied with his phone call.

Gu Manman didn’t rest well during her sleep, so as soon as the phone rang, she woke up. She picked the phone up and saw that the caller was Qi Changfeng. She didn’t dare to delay and immediately picked up the call.

“I told Gu Yan about your problem and she will guide you when you get to work today.”

As soon as Qi Changfeng spoke, he felt a tearing pain in his throat. He forced himself to finish speaking before swallowing his saliva.

When Gu Manman heard Qi Changfeng’s words, she felt furious and sat up immediately. Was this his plan? What kind of plan was that? Gu Manman was about to cry. She had promised in front of Gu Yan that she was capable, but now she had to ask her for help because she could not come up with a design?

Gu Manman refused to do that without hesitation.

“No, Changfeng, I can’t accept this method.”

Gu Manman’s refusal was within Qi Changfeng’s expectation. As soon as he finished speaking, he knew that she would definitely say no to his plan. Therefore, right after he said those words to her, he stood up, poured a glass of water to moisten his throat, and gulped down more than half of the water.

After drinking more than half a glass of water, Qi Changfeng felt much better by his throat. He did not feel as uncomfortable as before. And then he cleared his throat. After all, he knew very well that it would take a lot of effort to persuade Gu Manman. She had always been a difficult child to deal with.

But he would not allow her to affect her own future because of her awkward mood. He was very clear about her talent, so he would never just watch her waste it.

“Don’t be so troublesome. Gu Yan has dealt with more things than you have. Maybe she can help you solve the problems that troubled you every day with just a few words. Why do you have to give up what is close at hand for what is far away? Listen to me. Go to work and get your job done later. When Gu Yan tells you what to do, listen to her well, okay?”

“Changfeng!”

Gu Manman still didn’t want to accept it. If she lowered her head in front of Gu Yan now, not only would it mean that she admitted that she was not as good as her, but it would also be equivalent to directly telling Jiang Jingcheng that his guess was right – Gu Manman was an incompetent person. His previous evaluation of her was not wrong at all.

Didn’t this prove that she couldn’t change her impression on him at all? This was not what she wanted to see. She wanted Qi Changfeng to help her solve this problem, but she also wanted to change her impression on Jiang Jingcheng through this design task.
