Chapter 716: Never dry up

As if she knew what Gu Manman was thinking about, Gu Yan spoke slowly to help her relieve her worries. Gu Yan did not know what Gu Manman was thinking about in her mind. She just said those words according to her own thoughts. She felt that since she had just brought up one question, she should continue with the solution for it.

In this way, not only would she explain her points clearly, but Gu Manman would also easily understand what she meant.

At this moment, Gu Manman was about to say something to Gu Yan to let her know that she would soon forget these ideas if she did not use immediately.

“You can get a notebook to keep those inspirations. Once you have an idea, don’t be in a hurry to use it. Write it down first, combine it with the theme of the design, and then choose those suitable things from the ideas you have. In this way, your inspiration will not be wasted. And later when you can’t think of something new, you can take a look at your notebook and look for inspiration from it. What do you think about that?”

After Gu Yan finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Gu Manman, as if trying to confirm whether Gu Manman had listened to her or not. She was not just trying to see if the girl was listening to her seriously. Her words were based on her own experience and her professional perspective.

She did not know whether Gu Manman could accept her method. Hence, she turned to look at Gu Manman, wanting her to give her a response. Gu Yan talked for so long, but she did not hear a single word from Gu Manman. Gu Yan regretted it a little if she had said too much.

Therefore, at the end of her words, Gu Yan asked Gu Manman for her opinion. She could think of another way to discuss it with Gu Manman and come up with a solution that satisfied both of them if Gu Manman felt that this method was not feasible. So right now, she had to ask for Gu Manman’s opinion first.

Gu Manman was stunned. “Yeah, I’ve never thought of such a method before. But I have to say that this is indeed a very good idea, how have I never thought of it? It seems that I’m still a little lacking in professional knowledge compared to Gu Yan.” She did not admit it before, but now that she found Gu Yan spot her problems with just a look, she had to admit that there was still a huge gap between her and her boss.

She still had to learn from Gu Yan in terms of professional skills.

Gu Yan saw that Gu Manman did not say a word and thought that the girl did not understand what she meant. She felt a little helpless, but since she had promised Qi Changfeng that she would help, she had to do it even if she had to bite the bullet. Moreover, she could tell that Gu Manman was a very talented girl from her designs.

Before working for Gu Yan, Gu Manman had gone through quite some troubles in her career of designing. Although she knew that her family could help her a lot, this was her own business. Her family could support her. However, when it came to designing, she could only do it herself. She had to figure out the correct way to do it on her own before she could really make a meaningful design.

Gu Yan didn’t want to see such a gifted person’s talents got buried just because she didn’t want to help out. There were more talents in the world than the ones who knew how to appreciate them. Gu Yan knew that she couldn’t be considered a very good judge of talent, but since Gu Manman was gifted, she would certainly help if she could.

Gu Yan got up and returned to her own office. Gu Manman was stunned. “Why did she leave just like that? Is she impatient to talk to me?” Gu Manman was at a loss. What her boss had just said was really reasonable. Gu Manman wanted to know more about Gu Yan’s thoughts, but why did she leave just like that?

Gu Manman stood up all of a sudden, but she didn’t know what to do. Should she walk up with Gu Yan or just stand there? Gu Manman had no clue at all. Why did Gu Yan leave all of a sudden? Did she do something that upset her? But Gu Manman didn’t know what that could be.

So she just stood in front of her desk in a daze and was no longer in the mood to think about what Gu Yan had just said to her. She just felt confused at Gu Yan’s behavior, because Gu Manman did not know what she had done wrong.

The reason that Gu Yan returned to her office was not that she was angry at Gu Manman or something. She just wanted to go to her workplace and show Gu Manman her notebook where she kept her ideas. It was useless no matter how much she said about it. She had to show Gu Manman the actual stuff so that the girl could understand how helpful it could be.

She had always thought that the wisdom of the human race was truly the most wonderful thing in the world. Her inspiration was a wonderful thing for her, and she didn’t mind showing Gu Manman her notebook where she kept her ideas, because she knew very well that inspiration was the last thing that could be stolen by the others.

Even if someone actually copied the stuff that she put down, she could come up with countless ideas. She believed that her inspiration would never dry up, and she was very confident about that.

Moreover, Gu Yan was very clear that Gu Manman was not the kind of person who would plagiarize other people’s ideas. She could feel that Gu Manman was a person who had her own thoughts. She didn’t know why she would feel this way. It was a kind of inexplicable trust.

Even Gu Yan could not tell the reason for her trust, but it was a kind of intuition. It had nothing to do with Gu Manman’s family, character, or anything else. Gu Yan instinctively felt that she could trust Gu Manman.

When Gu Yan saw that Gu Manman did not catch up to her for a long time, she realized that she had walked into her office without saying a word. Gu Manman definitely did not know what she wanted to do.

Gu Yan took her notebook and walked to the door. She originally wanted to walk straight to Gu Manman’s side, but she saw that there were more people in the office by now. Everyone couldn’t help feeling surprised when they saw Gu Yan appear in the office at this hour. However, no one showed it on his or her face, and everyone greeted her very naturally.

Gu Yan knew that her relationship with Gu Manman had caused a great disturbance in the studio during this period of time and almost everyone talked about the relationship between her and Gu Manman after meals. She did not want herself and Gu Manman to become the topic of discussion in the studio. This was not the working atmosphere she wanted.

Hence, Gu Yan stopped the smile on her face, closed the notebook in her hand, and walked forward expressionlessly.
