After returning from vacation in Nancheng, Xu Qiao returned to the studio and continued to concentrate on preparing for the fashion show.
The previous design process got stuck on a pocket watch necklace.
In the process of communicating with her, Pan De especially emphasized the finale of this fashion show, a mermaid dress with gold sequins and gauze with elements of mermaid fairy tales, hoping to customize it with a pocket watch necklace.
Jewelry and timepieces are not separate, but compared with pure jewelry, the combination of jewelry and timepiece design has higher technical content. Without relevant knowledge, it is very likely that the operation of the timepiece will not be realized if the manuscript is drawn out. Pan De once said that the design of this pocket watch necklace is beyond the professional scope of ordinary jewelry designers. It is understandable that it is not easy. If Xu Qiao cannot complete it, he is ready to contact a mature watch designer.
But for Xu Qiao's temper, there must be no "ifs" in this matter.
Because the watchmaking process takes a long time, when she arranged the design sequence, she set it in the early and mid-term, and made a "military order" with Pan De, saying that the work must be produced in mid-April.
Before the Qingming holiday, she polished it for more than a week, just for this pocket watch necklace.
The focus of the pocket watch necklace is mainly on the pocket watch, and the necklace should be simplified as far as possible in terms of visual effects, so as not to be too cumbersome.
But as a jewelry designer, Xu Qiao's strength lies in necklaces, not watches. In this way, in order to learn from each other's strengths, compared with the technical components in pocket watch design, its creative conception becomes more important.
Xu Qiao's initial idea was to design a "half-hunting watch".
The so-called "hunting watch" refers to a pocket watch with a front cover, while a "half hunting watch" is a pocket watch with a hole in the front cover for the convenience of reading the watch. surface".
Considering the display effect of the model when walking on the stage, the shape of the hunting watch is too subtle, while the open face watch is too direct. Both lack aesthetic feeling, so the half hunting watch has become the best choice.
In order to commensurate with the design concept of the skirt, Xu Qiao has been trying to make a fuss about the mermaid image on the dial background, but the mermaid has long been an element of "bad street", so it is difficult to design new ideas in the shape, and second, it is so simple and rude The fill-in-the-blank design seems to separate the background of the dial and the watch itself into two completely separate individuals, which seems to be a rote in order to make up the theme.
Xu Qiao's desired effect is not "catering" to the theme, but "fitting" the theme, so she has been stuck in this ring and stagnated.
When she came back from the gathering, she developed the photos taken by the photographer, and while flipping through the photos in the studio, she recalled the details of the trip for three days and two nights, and paused when she saw a photo of the beach.
The photo was taken on a coast where she and Cheng Lang arrived after dozens of hours of sailing.
The sky is high and the sea is wide, and the gulls are flying in the distance. The sun shines on the golden beach, and every grain of sand is shining brightly. When the blue waves wet the sand, the photographer captured the silhouette of her and Cheng Lang kissing.
At that time, it wasn't a deliberate pose, and the two of them didn't even remember that the photographer was following behind them. It was just that Cheng Lang put his arms around her waist and kissed her when they were in love.
While eating dog food, the photographer didn't forget to collect materials. He rushed to a high place like crossing the line of fire and took a long shot.
It was morning, and the shadow stretched obliquely. Xu Qiao's skirt reaching to his ankle was just blown by the sea breeze. The timing was beautiful and the composition was exquisite.
Facing this photo, Xu Qiao stared at the two figures in a daze for a while, then suddenly blinked and snapped her fingers.
There is.
Once the ideas are cleared, the writing will flow like a spring. Xu Qiao spent three days to initially finish the hand-drawn draft, and then started drawing with a flashlight. In order to catch up with the progress, she spent almost all her time in the studio except sleeping and eating.
Poor Cheng Lang has just tasted the essence, and if he wants to make love to her, he has to look at her face. Seeing her returning home with a tired face, he doesn't even have the strength to take off his makeup, and he is not willing to torment her. He silently acts as the logistics behind a successful woman and lets her sleep. rest.
Among other things, Cheng Lang remembered this pocket watch in his heart.
After the design of the pocket watch is completed and handed over to the watchmaking workshop, the time of the fashion show is also from the vague beginning of August to the final date.
When Xu Qiao received the notification, it was afternoon in London time on Pan De's side, and it was already night in Beicheng.
Because she was catching up with the construction schedule, she got a little free time and rested at home for a day. This night, she just unlocked a few fancy poses with Cheng Lang. He cried, saying that she would not be able to celebrate her birthday this year.
The first show of the fashion show in Beicheng is scheduled for August 19th, which happens to be her birthday. She was still looking forward to what surprises Cheng Lang would prepare for her, such as accompanying her to Huangdao Town in Maple Leaf Country to see the aurora, or arranging a glamorous cruise party.
Now that I think about it, traveling is impossible. Xu Qiao sighed and said that she was such a poor little girl.
After Cheng Lang was satisfied, he entered the sage mode, and his desire to survive plummeted. He joked that fortunately, the news came in time. It seems that the plan to buy an island can be temporarily shelved. The duck flew away" and ignored him in the resentment.
An hour later, her rumbling stomach finally spoke for her as she burnt calories from strenuous exercise.
Cheng Lang narrowly escaped death and coaxed him back with supper.
—
From spring break to midsummer, Xu Qiao spent half a year working hard to finish her first big project in her career perfectly.
On August 19th, the "Deep Sea" fashion show officially opened at Beicheng Art Museum.
Since the announcement of Zhang Yang's location, the show has attracted the attention of the industry. At five o'clock in the evening that day, a group of invited celebrities and senior practitioners in the fashion circle arrived at the art museum one after another.
The Beicheng Art Museum is open and grand, and the well-proportioned modern geometric buildings have created a lot of momentum for the visual feast tonight. In front of the main entrance, "long guns and short guns" gathered together, and reporters rushed to seize the high ground for shooting, and the sound of shutters was endless.
Although the reporter's enthusiasm was mostly on the popular stars, when an arrogant Zeppelin slowly stopped in front of the pavilion, this scene still stimulated the shots in the hands of everyone.
The two people got off the back seat of the car, the man was wearing a dark gray suit, and the woman was wearing a white starry fairy dress with backless back. Don't tell me, both of them wore high-end custom clothes that were more expensive than celebrities.
It was soon discovered that this couple was the president of Lanchen Group and his high-profile girlfriend at the beginning of the year—the jewelry designer partner specially invited by Pan Sen for this fashion show.
It's not common to see nobles of this level, not to mention that this couple is a topic of conversation in the upper class, and the reporter's camera quickly turned to them.
Xu Qiao took Cheng Lang's arm and walked through the corridor with flashing lights.
The two are not from the entertainment industry, and there is no need to take care of the camera, and they are still talking to themselves along the way.
"Baby, are you a little nervous?" Cheng Lang asked in a low voice in her ear.
Of course, what he said was not facing the camera of the reporter, but referring to the audience tonight and the industry's evaluation after tonight.
Xu Qiao is not the protagonist of this show, but the results of the past six months will be tested by the professional eyes of the fashion circle in this show. Even if Pan De has been full of praise for her during this time, she cannot not be nervous.
After all, after the London High Jewelry Show, she disappeared for half a year and did not produce any more works. The industry has almost forgotten her as a short-lived newcomer.
If it was the past, Xu Qiao might be aggressive and say that she is not nervous, but in the past few months, the two have established an intimate relationship, and all body language has become a tacit understanding. She just moves her fingers, Cheng Lang would feel his emotions.
Xu Qiao snorted, "I know I'm nervous, so I should take action quickly."
People came and went in the lobby of the art museum, Cheng Lang smiled and pointed to the front: "Let the group of relatives and friends take care of you?"
Xu Qiao went as he expected, and saw a group of men and women leaning against the railing of the central spiral ramp.
Zhu Li was talking speculatively with Shen Dang, Jiang put aside and tried to intervene, but ended in failure. A little further to the side, Yukin and the Elio couple were chatting and laughing.
Xu Qiao was stunned.
Because this fashion show was of high standard and the number of invitations was very limited, Pan De didn't take the initiative to mention it, so she didn't have the nerve to specialize it and drag her family along.
In the end, someone left the back door for her.
Cheng Lang glanced over there, and said in a low voice: "Jiang Fang and Shen Dang just made up the numbers. If you think it's pleasing to the eye, just look at it, and if it's not pleasing to the eye, don't look at it. It's still a serious one."
Before Xu Qiao had time to ask who it was, several people noticed this and came up to her and Cheng Lang.
"Happy birthday, little princess." Zhu Li led the charge with a smile, "I put the gift for you in your family's Xiao Cheng's car, remember to open it when you go back."
Jiang Fang and Shen Dang raised their hands to say the same.
Yujin and Elio exchanged hugs with her one after another: "Happy birthday, our presents are also in the trunk."
Xu Qiao was so moved that she sniffed: "I'm very happy that you guys took the time to come here from such a long distance, why waste the money!"
"No cost," Yu Jin glanced at Cheng Lang with a smile, "The round-trip air tickets and board and lodging are all contracted by Xiao Cheng. We have left Milan for two days, and even the store has a special person to take over."
Xu Qiao followed and looked at Cheng Lang: "Xiao Cheng is always good at doing things."
"It should." Cheng Lang smiled and nodded.
Twenty minutes before the opening of the fashion show, various media are competing to interview the stars in the visiting area, and many guests are visiting in small groups in the venue.
Cheng Lang and Xu Qiao didn't accept interviews from Yuji, and they had already spent a lot of time visiting art museums. Now it's their free time.
Several people went to the reception area to settle down. Along the way, Xu Qiao talked with them about the highlights of this fashion show, starting with Yu Jin and Elio who came from afar.
Jiang Fang saw that there were seven people and two couples in the group, and Shen Dang was supposed to be with him, but he chatted with Zhu Li about venture capital, which led to his order.
He walked to the other side of Cheng Lang uneasy: "Mr. Lang, this arrangement is not suitable for you. Seven people, no matter what, one of them must be ordered. Where do you want me to intervene tonight?"
Cheng Lang glanced at him lightly; "Before asking this question, shouldn't you reflect on why you are the only one out of seven people?"
Isn't that poor me, how could it be you who is so awesome? Jiang Fang didn't dare to make such nonsense, and said to the crowd: "Listen, is what he said like a human being?"
Zhu Li turned his head and said, "I understand it even if I don't speak human words. You Boss Lang must suffer from our little princess every day. You work hard and give him a firecracker to enjoy your mouth."
Jiang let out a laugh: "What you said is not human. Are you still angry about what happened in London last time?"
He was talking about New Year's Eve, he took Zhu Li and spent a lot of effort to arrange a love nest for Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang in the hotel, with a full set of flower petal fragrance, delicious wine and food, but the result fell short.
After learning that the plan was revealed that day, Zhu Li was indeed blown away by his stupid idea, and in retrospect, he still felt that it was the biggest failure in his mature and stable life.
"I've been out of anger for a long time." Zhu Li said the first half of the sentence without being angry, and the second half of the sentence ruthlessly sprinkled salt on his wounds, "But Boss Jiang attended today as a bachelor, it seems that he hasn't found a girlfriend yet?"
After hearing this, Xu Qiao poked her head out from Cheng Lang's side, and asked curiously, "Has Boss Jiang been single for a long time?"
"It's been half a year."
"Isn't the one you took to the London Fine Jewelery Show last time your girlfriend?"
"Hey, that's my temporary female companion."
Several people sat on the benches in the reception area. Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang sat in the middle, with their friends on either side.
Xu Qiao said regretfully, "That girl is pretty, and she has a lovely personality."
"Don't mention it," Jiang Fang sighed, "How cute is cute! I think her pocket money is tightly controlled at home, and if you give her a chance to earn extra money, she will be fine. She will take my money and go back to dating men, and go bankrupt to prepare for someone's birthday. Gift!"
This really makes the listener cry and the hearer sad.
Xu Qiao looked at him sympathetically.
Seeing her eyes, Jiang Fang became even more angry, and said through gritted teeth, "Don't let me find out who this man is."
Shen Dang smiled and turned his head to participate in the group chat: "It's been half a year, are you still looking into this matter?"
"Isn't this looking for a needle in a haystack, and there has been no progress? I only know that she is called '2B'."
Xu Qiao and Shen Dang were both taken aback.
"2 what?"
"What B?"
"I saw that she was making a birthday cake for someone. There was a number 2 and a letter B written on the cake." Jiang Fang was confident.
Cheng Lang seldom participated in this kind of gossip, so he couldn't bear to hear it, so he said: "The birthday cake half a year ago, it should be 213, which means February 13th, right?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, the crowd burst into outrageous laughter.
Cheng Lang sighed, and said to the three on Xu Qiao's side, "Just kidding."
Xu Qiao is in a trance at the moment.
Why did she feel as if she had seen this cake before
She asked Cheng Lang in a low voice: "The night you got drunk and asked me to be cute, it was the day before Valentine's Day, right?"
Before Cheng Lang corrected her wrong use of the word "cute", he read something from her expression.
The day before Valentine's Day, because he heard that Xu Qiao and Song Mian had a birthday cake in a tea restaurant, he felt uncomfortable, and drank too much wine during the evening entertainment.
It happened to be February thirteenth.
The two just confirmed each other's guess while they were looking at each other, when they suddenly heard a female voice: "Hello, Mr. Song, Mr. Cheng is in the reception area, please come inside."
Xu Qiao raised her head in a daze, and saw Song Mian walking towards here in a black suit with a Windsor collar, dressed formally.
Cao Cao didn't arrive as fast as him.
Cheng Lang explained: "Didn't I just say that there is still one person missing?"
Xu Qiao suddenly realized.
This is also the "group of relatives and friends" that Cheng Lang invited for her.
She stood up and waved to Song Mian, letting him see her position.
"Sorry, I took over a patient temporarily this afternoon, I'm late." Song Mian stepped forward with a smile.
"It's okay, I'm just getting ready to start!" Xu Qiao waved her hand.
Cheng Lang stood up, wrapped his arms around her waist, and nodded to Song Mian: "Doctor Song."
Xu Qiao glanced at him quietly, implying that he should stop showing unnecessary affection, and Song Mian probably has his own owner too!
Song Mian greeted him with a smile, then turned to Xu Qiao: "Happy birthday, it's not convenient to bring in gifts. I just met Assistant Gao at the door, and he said he would hand them over to you."
Xu Qiao said thanks.
Although Jiang Fang didn't know Song Mian, he recognized Song Mian as the eighth person. He slapped his thigh and stood up: "Hey, my partner is here! Mr. Lang is still reliable, and he knows that the team must be a pair."
Song Mian expressed a gentle and polite attitude towards Jiang Fang's familiarity: "Hello."
"Don't you, yours, why are you being polite, Mr. Lang's game, we are all friends when we come."
The broadcast sounded, reminding the guests to start entering the venue, and everyone in the reception area got up and walked towards the show.
Xu Qiao saw Jiang Fang and Song Mian walking side by side in harmony, and glanced at Cheng Lang, worried about the possible hidden dangers in the relationship between the two.
Cheng Lang made a hissing gesture to show that they didn't care about this business.
Xu Qiao nodded and decided to pretend that she didn't know.
—
At six o'clock, the fashion show started on time.
Xu Qiao sat in the front row with her back straight, obviously not her own show, but her palms were sweating.
She cherishes the hard work of the past six months. The influence of this show is likely to reach the result of "Success is Xiao He, and failure is Xiao He". Watch tonight if you fly into the sky, and watch tonight if you fall into the dust.
The lights in the show went dark for a moment after the countdown ended, and when they turned on again, there were shocking holographic images everywhere—echoing the theme of this fashion show "Deep Sea", the entire show was projected into a very dreamy color In the deep sea world, the runway is like a bright undersea tunnel, which attracts everyone's attention.
There were whispers around, most of them were amazed at the design of the show.
When the music started, the models who started the show walked through the undersea tunnel with the beat of the drums, and then the audience discussed the fashion.
Xu Qiao vaguely heard someone praise and say that Pan De really won't disappoint people, and he must go to the showroom to order this dress for the show in a while.
Someone answered: "Then I'll leave it to you."
The former said again: "Ah, Yueyue wants it too? Then I won't snatch it from you!"
She couldn't distinguish the tone of voice very clearly, but judging from the content of the speech, it seemed to be Wen Yue and her little sister.
On such an occasion, heroes from all walks of life in Beicheng's celebrity circle naturally gathered together.
Xu Qiao guessed that in addition to watching the show, they might also want to see what tricks she can design and why Pan De chose her.
But I don't know if it's because of the influence of Cheng Lang's attitude of "I show up, let me show up", or because I have entered a new stage of life and no longer worry about the injuries I received in the past. Xu Qiao now doesn't care about the eyes of these people .
People who hate you will never affirm you, whether it is in their mouth or in their hearts.
Just let them continue to be jealous of her, they can't get used to her and can't get rid of her. And she didn't waste any precious energy on it.
Xu Qiao quickly blocked these voices and concentrated on watching the show.
There are a total of 48 looks in this show, among which there are as many as 20 pieces of tailor-made jewelry specially invited by Xu Qiao, all of which are exposed for the first time.
After all, it was Pan De's fashion show, and most people's attention was still on the clothes, but Xu Qiao's left and right sides were always paying attention to the jewelry accessories on the models.
After carefully looking at a few pieces, Yu Jin moved closer to her and said in a low voice, "Qiao, you have made great progress in the past six months. I guess that after the official release of jewelry tonight, it may lead the fashion trend of accessories in the second half of the year."
With her evaluation, Xu Qiao's hanging heart dropped half.
Although Cheng Lang is not an expert, he also gave some spectators' opinions, nodded frequently, and praised her "sense of proportion" by the way: "It's not overwhelming, but it's icing on the cake, and it's just right."
Cheng Lang and Yu Jin are not flamboyant people. Even if they blow rainbow farts, they will not blow them to the sky with their eyes closed.
Especially in Cheng Lang's tone, there was a hint of pride of "as expected of my baby", Xu Qiao felt that his rainbow fart was quite sincere.
She leaned close to his ear and smiled and said, "That's a credit to Boss Lang!"
Cheng Lang smiled and held her hand.
However, although it is not too overwhelming, Xu Qiao's design is still in the middle of the process, and when the spectators are slightly visually tired, it has attracted a lot of attention.
Other jewelry was relatively inconspicuous in the dynamic walk, and when a model appeared wearing a stunning aquamarine crown, someone recalled the previous scene and finally discovered the uniqueness of these jewelry tonight.
Once this head is opened, then people's attention is naturally allocated to these jewels. When more and more uninformed viewers asked about the origin of these jewelry while talking about fashion, Xu Qiao was completely at ease.
As the fashion show draws to a close, the grand finale is on the stage, and everyone around is amazed, whether it's the dazzling mermaid skirt or the pocket watch necklace that matches it.
It was not the first time Cheng Lang saw this pocket watch, but when he saw it again, he was still proud of its designer.
The fine pavé setting snowflakes inlaid small carat diamonds, depicting a magnificent sea view on the dial. The image of the hour hand is a mermaid, and the image of the minute hand is a prince. Because of the unconventional distribution of dial numbers and the special structure of the movement, when the time reaches twelve o’clock, the hour and minute hands will meet head-on on the bridge built by seagulls. a kiss.
In Andersen's fairy tale, the prince marries another woman, the mermaid turns into bubbles, and the ending is an unforgivable tragedy. And in this dial, the minute hand chases the hour hand day after day, and the hour hand slowly waits for the minute hand. No matter how difficult the process is, they will eventually meet.
This idea not only combines the mermaid fairy tale, the concept of "twelve o'clock" comes from the story of Cinderella, and the concept of "seagull building a bridge" is derived from the legend of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl meeting on the magpie bridge. It can be said that it has condensed countless romantic complexes in ancient and modern China and abroad.
The fashion show ended successfully and the lights came on. When Pan De took the stage to give a speech, he especially thanked the fashion show partner jewelry designer Yu Li and the pocket watch necklace she brought.
When Pan De praised this, the camera moved to Xu Qiao, and at the same time brought Cheng Lang beside her.
The two appeared on the big screen of the show. There were rustling voices from below, either lamenting the outstanding looks of the couple, or talking about their origins.
"I once asked Miss Yuli, where did the design inspiration for this pocket watch necklace come from?" Pan De stood in front of the stand microphone and looked at her with a smile. "She implicitly expressed two words to me—love."
Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang kept a decent smile and looked at the big screen in front of them.
When Pan De continued to talk, the camera gradually zoomed out, and Xu Qiao's eyes paused suddenly.
Because she was still within the scope of the camera, she quickly resumed her expression management after being stunned for a moment, but her eyes became a little erratic.
She didn't know if she was dazzled. She seemed to see a familiar figure in the back corner of the show through the big screen.
Pan De's speech became a blurred background sound, she couldn't hear anything clearly, and her eyes followed the camera to find the figure that had just passed by.
Cheng Lang seemed to know what she was doing, and patted the back of her hand lightly to comfort her.
After the camera completely left her, she turned her head to look at Cheng Lang in astonishment.
Cheng Lang nodded to her, confirming her guess.
The second half of Pan De's speech became extremely long for Xu Qiao. Her heart was beating extremely violently, and she waited restlessly for the fashion show to end completely. When the audience finally stood up and left, she tiptoed anxiously, looked at the crowds of people in the distance, and grabbed Cheng Lang's arm and asked: "Where is my dad?"
Cheng Lang greeted Zhu Li Yujin and the others, took her through the VIP channel and left the venue early, and explained to her on the way: "I sent your father an invitation letter and booked a plane ticket. He has always expressed his unwillingness to attend, but today I It was still found that he boarded this flight. I think he may want to see your debut show, but he doesn’t know how to face you, so he has been hiding in the corner. Don’t worry, he should not have gone far.”
Xu Qiao nodded, her high heels thumping loudly.
Cheng Lang called Gao Rui, hung up and said, "Don't worry, I've stopped someone, it's at the south gate."
Xu Qiao hurried to the south gate, and heard Gao Rui coaxing and deceiving Xu Kangrong with his three-inch tongue from a distance.
"Dad!" Xu Qiao ran over holding the hem of her skirt.
Xu Kangrong froze all over, turned around, kicked his feet, and pointed at Gao Rui angrily: "I knew it, I knew it, you kid is uneasy and kind!"
Gao Rui rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment: "Mr. Xu, I also listen to Mr. Cheng's errands."
Xu Qiao walked in front of Xu Kangrong angrily: "It's all here, what are you hiding?"
"Who is hiding?" Xu Kangrong looked at her, "Have you ever seen any father in the world who is afraid of his daughter?"
Cheng Lang stood in the distance and smiled.
Xu Qiao's and Xu Lie's stiff mouths are probably inherited from Xu Kangrong.
The father and daughter had been separated for nearly a year, and when they reunited for the first time, they didn't hold each other crying bitterly, but they had a heated argument about "whether to hide or not to hide, to be afraid or not to be afraid".
Cheng Lang didn't immediately step forward to disturb the reunion of the father and daughter, but gave Gao Rui a wink and told him to walk away too.
Until the atmosphere of the conversation between the father and daughter eased, Xu Qiao expressed concern to Xu Kangrong awkwardly: "Where did you get fat in the past, and you are so thin! Also, is your hair too dark? Temporarily You just dyed your feet? What's the matter with your suit? The buttons are loose!"
"You girl, you despise your father so much, what are you doing chasing after her?"
Xu Kangrong made a gesture to leave, but Xu Qiao wanted to stop him, but he couldn't seem to think of words to keep him.
Cheng Lang had no choice but to go forward: "Mr. Xu stay behind."
Xu Kangrong turned halfway and stopped.
"President Xu," Cheng Lang smiled and took Xu Qiao's hand, "Today is Qiaoqiao's birthday, you are here, let's eat a piece of birthday cake with her."
Xu Kangrong cleared his throat, and smiled dryly at Cheng Lang: "Mr. Cheng, you should accompany her. I won't attract people's attention here, lest people gossip about you!"
"Birthday is of course at home." Cheng Lang relieved Xu Kangrong's worries in one sentence, "I will accompany her back to the museum now, and take care of the entertainment. Can you wait for us in the car for a while?"
Xu Kangrong looked at Xu Qiao hesitantly.
"Just stay for one night," Cheng Lang persuaded him with a smile, "I can spend her birthday with her, but no one can replace Dad."
Xu Qiao's nose soured and she glanced at Cheng Lang.
It was actually a piece of cake for Cheng Lang to arrange such a game today. But because of the special day, this matter reached her heart with extraordinary weight.
She doesn't have many friends and her family is separated, so she has very few extravagances. Now Cheng Lang can make up for the emotions she lacks, and she is very satisfied.
But Cheng Lang didn't want him to be the only one in her life, and he didn't want to selfishly take her completely for himself.
On her birthday, he asked her most precious friends to come for her from all over the world, and let her reunite with her long-lost father.
He gave her gifts, but also hoped that she would get more gifts from others.
He gave her love, but also hoped that she would get more love from others.
It takes a confident and strong person to love someone like this.
Xu Qiao felt that she seemed to love this man a little more today.
The author has something to say:
·The main text is coming to an end, you can order extra episodes! Due to the limited timeline of the main text, the story only tells about one stage of Langzong and Qiaomei's life, and they still have a long way to go after that. I will continue to write some post-marriage daily life and child-rearing notes in the episode. Also, today’s chapter has a supporting role. If you are interested in the story of any supporting role (Xu Lie’s story will be opened separately, so I won’t write it here), you can mention others in the comment area. If I have inspiration, I will write .
Supplement: The design of the pocket watch refers to Van Cleef & Arpels' Lover's Bridge watch, and is adapted from this prototype.
