Wu Shuang was not interested in the real estate-related matters that Wu Shuangan and Bai Luochuan were discussing, but she did chat with Mi Yang.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Bai Luochuan noticed it and started chatting with her as well, saying everything before Mi Yang did, as if he wanted to block her completely and even protect the whole child under his wings.
Wu Shuang'an was a little drunk and was feeling very proud. Seeing the younger generations gathered together to talk, he couldn't help but glance at Bai Luochuan and his precious daughter. With a feeling of relief, he found an excuse to go out and let the young people have a good communication.
Wu Shuang'an had a good idea, but when he came back from a phone call, the dinner party had already become dull.
Bai Luochuan and Wu Shuang were looking at each other, but their eyes didn't show the kind of admiration between a man and a woman. Bai Luochuan was still maintaining a smile, but his daughter didn't smile at all from beginning to end.
Bai Luochuan sneered, "Miss Wu is eloquent and has a unique aesthetic sense. I, a vulgar person, cannot compare to her."
Wu Shuang didn't let him. She said coldly, "No, no, Mr. Bai answered fluently. I guess he was a frequent participant in the campus debate competition when he was in college. I can understand a reasonable argument, but now I don't see why your design can impress me."
Bai Luochuan said: "Oh, personal aesthetics and public aesthetics are different after all. You are not me, how do you know that I think it is not good-looking?"
Wu Shuang: "Beauty is a form of expression that is recognized by the public. Moreover, you are giving it as a gift. You think it is beautiful, but what about the recipient? I can recommend you a few books, or you can ask Mi Yang next to you to recommend some. I personally think his aesthetic taste is better than yours."
Bai Luochuan's face turned black.
Wu Shuang'an was still a little frightened, so he sat down carefully and asked, "What happened?"
Bai Luochuan stared at Wu Shuang without saying a word, his face not looking very good.
Wu Shuang explained simply, "It's nothing, Dad. It's just that Mr. Bai just showed me a design of a ring. You know, when it comes to my major, I always give some appropriate suggestions. When we talked, we were a little involved, so the words were inevitably a little heated."
It was more than intense, both sides almost stood up and had a fight.
Mi Yang sat there eating fruit silently. He felt that the two men were just too similar, whether in terms of family background or self-centeredness and willfulness, they were just like two javelins, with the tips polished to a shine, flashing with cold light, and sparks flying at the slightest contact. There was no way they could sit down and have a good conversation.
Wu Shuang'an also heard some information and asked tentatively: "Ring?"
Bai Luochuan opened his mouth, but Wu Shuang interrupted him and said briskly, "Yes, Mr. Bai has a girlfriend he has been dating for many years, and he is about to propose to her, so he wants me to see the design of the wedding ring in advance."
Bai Luochuan also nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. I originally wanted to hear Ms. Wu's professional advice, but it seems that we have different aesthetic preferences."
Mi Yang: “…”
He had just seen it with his own eyes. Young Master Bai was not asking for advice at all. He was clearly showing off. When Wu Shuang said that he used too many diamonds, he immediately became unhappy. The two of them started arguing over whether the main diamond was too big and exaggerated.
The two people have diametrically opposed personalities. One refuses to give in when it comes to her jewelry expertise, while the other gets angry when she fails to show off and insists that the ring she designed is the most beautiful. If she doesn't even allow the existence of "then", how can she allow anyone to refute her
Wu Shuang'an understood what was said now, and felt a little embarrassed. He had been cautious and was afraid that his daughter would lose face. However, after careful observation, he found that his daughter did not look disappointed at all. Instead, she was still refuting sharply.
Wu Shuang: "If Mr. Bai insists on using such a big square diamond, it's fine, with a circle of broken diamonds around it... You don't even want to get rid of the broken diamonds? Oh, then what kind of ring are you going to make? Just make a ring instead."
Bai Luochuan sneered: "This is a men's model, you don't understand."
Wu Shuang said calmly: "Yes, I have been in this industry for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen the world with you."
Wu Shuangan: “…”
Wu Shuang'an felt a headache.
The dinner ended unpleasantly, with both parties maintaining their dignity, but it seems that they will not be able to have any private contact again.
Wu Shuang'an took his daughter back to the car. Wu Shuang did not leave this time, but her expression was still indifferent. After getting into the car with Wu Shuang'an, she remained quiet and did not speak.
While Wu Shuang'an told the driver to drive, he asked her, "Are you angry with Dad again?"
Wu Shuang frowned slightly and said, "No."
Wu Shuang'an was an old fox outside, but when he saw his daughter, he was not arrogant at all. He immediately knew that she was still sulking about the dinner. He patted her hand and said, "Dad is anxious. You said it before, and I didn't mean to ignore it. It's just that there are too few outstanding young people in this circle, so I want to get to know more of them."
Wu Shuang said: "Dad, how old is he!"
"How old is he..." Wu Shuang'an asked the assistant in front of him halfway through his sentence. When he heard the assistant say "22 years old", he forced a smile and said, "A woman who is three years older than me will bring me gold bricks! Besides, we just want to get to know each other, there is no other intention."
Wu Shuang said coldly: "I don't like your arrangement at all."
Wu Shuang'an raised his hands in surrender and coaxed her, "I know, I know, you artists are troublesome. There were so many people chasing after your mother, but I was the last one standing. I just want to get to know you in advance. Dad respects your opinion and won't force you..."
Wu Shuang: "If you respect me, you wouldn't have taken me there so suddenly. Did you know that he has a girlfriend who he has been dating for many years? Even if he doesn't, you should have asked for my opinion first."
"Okay, it's Dad's fault. Dad will never do this again. I promise you."
Wu Shuang'an has money in his own hands, and he loves his precious daughter the most. He is now old and in poor health, and he is very worried about who will take care of Wu Shuang after he leaves. However, no matter how urgent he is, he will not go against his daughter's wishes. He brought her here only because he loves her. Since his daughter doesn't like it, he won't force her.
After Wu Shuang'an coaxed her for a while, he said, "Shuangshuang, I know you have high standards. Daddy only has this one wish, which is that you find a good partner and accompany you happily every day. Let's take it slowly. We can choose first. Talents, like feelings, need to be cultivated."
Wu Shuang said: "Dad, I don't like this kind of aristocratic family."
Wu Shuangan considered, "It's better to marry someone who is well matched."
Wu Shuang still insisted: "I think background is not important. What's wrong with working hard on your own? Isn't that what you did?"
"Me? How many people like your father are there in this world?" Wu Shuang'an was getting anxious, fearing that his daughter would be exposed to too simple an environment. He patiently taught her, "Although not everyone is limited by their birth, those who have worked hard to succeed are rare. How do you know how he has lived over the years, what his living habits are like, and whether he will have anything to say to you in the future? It's easy for him to coax you now, but it will be difficult to coax you for the rest of your life. Shuangshuang, you are my only precious daughter..."
Wu Shuang fell silent for a long time before saying, "Don't worry, he is very good."
Wu Shuangan heard a hint of information and took the opportunity to ask her: "Why, have you found a boy you like?"
Wu Shuang blushed.
Wu Shuangan thought there was a chance, but before he could open his mouth, he heard his beloved daughter say, "Anyway, I think background is not important. What matters to a person is his career, health, and love. He should be humble and polite, tolerant, and able to care for each other. The person I like should have these qualities."
Wu Shuang'an listened and nodded, but he didn't agree in his heart. He had suffered a lot before, and he didn't want his daughter to suffer at all. He wanted to help her cut through the thorns himself.
Wu Shuang also knew that he and he had been purchasing agents for decades and it was impossible to communicate with each other, so he said tiredly: "I won't accompany you tomorrow, I have to go out to do something."
Wu Shuangan asked: "Where are you going?"
Wu Shuang: "I went to the Cultural and Museum Institute of Imperial University. It's rare that Professor Zhang is here. I have a few questions about ancient clothing accessories that I want to ask you. As I told you last time, I took on the accessories for a play, which requires more delicate details. This time I came back for this matter."
Wu Shuangan nodded, "Okay, I'll ask the driver to take you there."
Wu Shuang shook her head and said, "No, Mi Yang is over there too, so there's no need for anyone else to accompany her." Her father's driver also served as a bodyguard, following her all the time, and she didn't want anyone following her all the time.
Wu Shuang'an suddenly thought of the mild-tempered young man at the dinner, healthy, loving, modest and polite... No matter how he thought about it, it matched what his precious daughter said. He couldn't help but frowned and asked her, "Shuangshuang, that Mi Yang, I just heard him say what town he was from?"
Wu Shuang knew something, and said, "Shanhai Town, he told me about it, what happened?"
Wu Shuangan asked, "Are you talking about that poor boy?"
Wu Shuang didn't understand, but it didn't stop her from defending her friend: "You were also a poor boy back then, why are you criticizing others?"
Wu Shuangan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I just said it casually. I didn't mean anything else. Okay, I won't talk about him anymore. What kind of job does that guy named Mi Yang do?"
"He is a student of the Cultural and Museum Institute of the Imperial University of Peking, and also from Professor Zhang's research institute. Didn't you listen to him when he introduced him just now?" Wu Shuang was dissatisfied. "You are too disrespectful to intellectuals."
Wu Shuangan: “…”
Wu Shuang'an tried to ask his daughter indirectly whether she liked this young man. He was very nervous. Wu Shuang had been abroad for a long time and her mind was relatively simple. He could not get anything out of her. When he asked her directly, she shook her head and said, "I don't like Mi Yang. He is my friend. I like older guys."
Wu Shuang'an immediately nodded and said, "Older ones know how to love people. You made the right choice. If you find someone you like, you must bring him back to show daddy!"
Even when he said this, he was still worried.
Wu Shuang was a little absent-minded. He just agreed and turned to look at the night scene outside the car window.
Seeing her like this, Wu Shuang'an could only sigh.
On the other side, in the car.
Bai Luochuan was also very angry. He sulked for a long time with a stinky face and sneered, "She even opened a jewelry studio and created a brand? Don't you have any aesthetic sense? What's wrong with the style I just mentioned?"
Mi Yang looked up at him.
Bai Luochuan hesitated and asked, "You also think it doesn't look good?"
Mi Yang hummed and said vaguely: "It looks pretty, but the diamond is a bit big..."
There is a large square diamond in the middle, surrounded by small diamonds. Although it is a men's style, it is quite stressful to look at. It is like wearing a house on the finger. Mi Yang felt a little overwhelmed when he thought that he would wear it in the future. Wu Shuang was right. If you wear this out, it is not a ring, but a ring.
Bai Luochuan snorted, still somewhat unconvinced.
But maybe it was because of Wu Shuang's rude blow to his aesthetic taste that he went back and seriously reflected on the design of the ring and thought about it on his own. It was rare that he didn't bother Mi Yang during these two days of rest.
