Chapter 782 There is no reason to lie to her

Zhou Zhiyin left the studio for a long time, but there are still traces of her in the studio.

The mural on the wall was painted by her, and the sunroom was also designed by her according to her own ideas.

The lemons on the lemon tree have not been picked for too long and some areas have turned yellow.

The studio was bustling with people, so Xu Yi cleared out a room near the sunroom for Zhou Zhiyin to use as an office, and called Lin Rachel to personally discuss work matters with Zhou Zhiyin.

"By the way, Sister Xu Yi asked me to get your signature."

Rachel Lin handed her a contract.

Zhou Zhiyin was looking at the studio's cooperation situation and did not look at the contract.

Then he asked, "What is it?"

"She said you're still the boss, so it should be about equity."

Because of Zhou Zhiyin's joining, the equity was redistributed. The four people held the same amount of shares, with Xu Yi holding a little more.

Zhou Zhiyin took it and looked at it. "Did she ask you to give it to me?"

"Yeah, that's what she meant."

Zhou Zhiyin looked at the contract and thought about starting over in this studio, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

She signed quickly, "You can give it to her now."

"Ok."

Zhou Zhiyin's joining helped everyone share a lot of work, and everyone was busy every day.

Xu Yi has the heaviest workload, and since she is the most famous, most people ask her to do it themselves.

She can draw many designs in a day, but for the sake of the studio's appearance, she must strive for perfection, select the ones she is most satisfied with, and then hand them over to professionals for cutting.

Because the parts were too difficult, Xu Yi had to participate in the production throughout.

Lindong asked Xu Yi to meet him near the studio, and Xu Yi went.

Her belly isn't visible yet, and it's barely noticeable in the fitted clothes she wears.

Every day a professional nutritionist determines what she should eat to replenish the nutrients missing in her body. Apart from that, Xu Yi also eats some of her favorite foods.

Although this pregnancy went through a lot of trouble, it has generally stabilized.

But occasional morning sickness is unavoidable...

After vomiting, she will want to eat something else to replenish the nutrients in her body.

As a result, Xu Yi lost a little weight, but soon became plump again. She was no longer fat, and her complexion looked much better than before, with a rosy complexion.

Participating in the Xidi competition was the most difficult time for her, but after getting through it, everything became clear.

Lindong knew that she was a pregnant woman and couldn't drink coffee, so he ordered a cup of strong hot milk in advance.

"Ming Xin..."

Lin Dong saw her coming and stood up.

Xu Yi also didn't want to let older people wait for her, so she came here in person.

She was wearing a pink dress. "Please sit down, Director Lin. I am the junior. Why should you stand up?"

Lin Dong didn't want to do that, but he felt really guilty towards the Zhou family and Qi Yu.

Whenever she thought about these things, she felt very sad.

"I still feel a little guilty about your mother's matter."

Xu Yi sat down first. "It's nothing. It means that Director Lin didn't cause much harm to my mother. Otherwise, my mother would have taken you away long ago."

What Xu Yi said was unpleasant to hear, but it made sense.

She looked at Lin Dong, who sat down with an ugly look on his face.

Liang Qiaohe harmed Qi Yu, so Qi Yu almost wiped out the entire Qi family.

Xu Yi said, "Don't think too much, Mr. Lin. What I said is just literal meaning."

Calling her Lin Dong meant that he no longer considered her his master. He just called her master in everything. The sudden change of words made Lin Dong feel a little at a loss.

Lin Dong said, "It seems that you don't trust me."

Xu Yi took a sip of hot milk and asked, "What does Director Lin want to talk to me about?"

Xu Yi understood Lin Dong. She had made it clear before that Lin Dong had such a strong self-esteem that he would not have come to her if he hadn't asked her for something.

Speaking of Chyi Yu, it's just looking for topics.

"Mingchen went back to Country Y. I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Director Lin, if you have something to talk to me about, just tell me. There's no need to mention my mother and Zhou Mingchen one after another."

Lin Dong was quiet for a moment, "I really can't hide it from you, Ming Xin."

Xu Yi said, "I still like to hear you call me Xu Yi."

Lin Dong nodded and said, "Zhiyin has gone to Moyi, and now the studio is really thriving. Many of my partners here want to change to cooperate with you, saying that your designs are of very high quality."

Xu Yi didn't respond.

Lin Dong nodded, "We can't influence the customer's ideas, but today, I came to you to do something."

Lin Dong looked at Xu Yi, and Xu Yi nodded, "Director Lin, just say it directly."

"I want to cooperate with an international brand recently, but there is no precedent for international brands to cooperate with our country... The boss of that brand is very interested in diamonds, and I think I should cater to his preferences."

Xu Yi nodded, "Of course. In order to facilitate cooperation, we need to cater to their needs."

But Xu Yi didn't understand what this had to do with her.

Why did Lin Dong tell her all this?

She was not interested in diamonds at all. She liked gold very much and bought a lot of it to store at home.

While Song Yanming was saying that she was unsophisticated, he also helped her find some rare gold jewelry handed down from ancient times...

Lin Dong smiled and said, "Xu Yi, I heard that the diamond in your hand was wanted by the boss of the company I was about to cooperate with but failed to get it at the auction."

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "I don't have any diamonds in my hand. I don't like diamonds."

If Lin Dong was asking her for something, she really didn't have it.

Lin Dong learned from the auction that the diamond was indeed in Xu Yi's hands, and it was very high-profile at the time. Song Yanming used the diamond to announce the date of his marriage to her.

If Lin Dong had not checked the information, he might have really believed her.

"You have, Xu Yi..."

As he spoke, Lin Dong took out a picture and showed it to her.

"This is a jade bracelet that your father Zhou Yuancheng donated to children in poor mountainous areas at an auction. If you are willing, I am willing to return your father's relics to you."

When Xu Yi saw the photo of this bracelet, he inexplicably felt familiar.

I must have seen it somewhere when I was a kid, but my memory of the specifics is hazy.

She looked at the photo of the jade bracelet, thoughtfully.

"The buyer and I are friends, Xu Yi... I'm looking for you this time to discuss cooperation."

Xu Yi looked at Lin Dong and said puzzledly, "I can pay for this bracelet, but I don't have the diamond you want. I don't have any diamond at all."

"The peerless rose."

After hearing this, Xu Yi was stunned.

That thing was quite heavy, and she locked it in the safe after wearing it a few times. It had been so long that she forgot about it.

The value of this jade bracelet is far less than that of the peerless rose.

But this bracelet was his father's relic, and Lin Dong had no reason to lie to him.

Zhou Mingchen is the head of the Zhou family now. Qi Yu's fire burned everything down, even the house is gone, so what old things are there to talk about?

All that remained in her hand was the broken silver ring.
