Chapter 1131: Thank You, Teacher

The girl that Jiang Man had her eyes on was sitting in the lobby of the Jiang Corporation. When she took the glass of water from the front desk, she was so embarrassed that her face turned red.

The front desk looked at the girl gently. She looked about the same age as Jiang Li, but her personality was too different.

She smiled and said, “Little sister, wait a little longer. Little President Jiang will be off work soon.”

“Okay, okay.” The girl nodded. She took out her phone and saw Jiang Li’s reply.

The message said, “Hu Miao, I’m going downstairs.”

Hu Miao quickly drank a mouthful of water. When she turned her head, she heard Jiang Li’s voice.

“So soon? I just received the message.” Hu Miao smiled uncomfortably.

“Let’s go and eat!” Jiang Li’s tone was light. When she came in front of Hu Miao, she said with a smile.

Hu Miao immediately agreed. When she was about to leave with Jiang Li, she suddenly turned around to express her gratitude to the front desk.

The front desk pursed her lips. When she saw Hu Miao and Jiang Li leave, she said to her colleagues, “This girl is really cute. When she is with Little President Jiang, I can feel that Little President Jiang is still very young.”

Jiang Li was usually too mature and steady, and her actions were too sharp.

Her colleagues at the side echoed her and also packed their things to get off work.

The restaurant that Jiang Li chose was not too far from the Jiang Corporation. After eating, she planned to go to Qiu Huang.

Her daily schedule was full, and she was not in the mood to think about too many things.

After she ordered the dishes, she looked at Hu Miao seriously and said, “There are only the two of us now. You can say it.”

Hu Miao was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She stammered and did not know how to speak.

“Hu Miao? Go ahead.” Jiang Li was encouraging Hu Miao to speak her real thoughts openly.

Hu Miao took a deep breath and said, “You know there’s a variety show that has invited designers and ordinary fans, right? I just passed the audition.”

Jiang Li could not help but be surprised. She had never thought that Hu Miao would walk the path of design. She thought that she would continue to paint.

She did not have any plans for Hu Miao. She only smiled at her old classmate and used her eyes to encourage Hu Miao.

She hoped that Hu Miao would take the initiative to speak about her needs.

“I’m afraid.” Hu Miao took a deep breath and finally spoke her true feelings.

“I didn’t have anyone to talk to, so I thought of you. However, we haven’t been in contact for a long time, so I was afraid that you would think that I would only come and look for you when I needed you.”

To be honest, Jiang Li’s relationship with Hu Miao back then could be said to be very good, but it was only limited to ‘teacher and student’. They did not have much contact in life.

They did not have much contact after they graduated from high school.

It was understandable that Hu Miao would have so many complicated thoughts.

“You… have already passed the audition. You must participate,” Jiang Li suggested seriously.

Hu Miao suddenly raised her head. When she saw Jiang Li’s star-like eyes, she slowly lowered her head and said gloomily, “I have always been painting. I have never thought of designing. Moreover, I only had the thought of giving it a try…”

She had passed the audition, and then what?

Hu Miao lost her confidence. She needed a farsighted friend to help her analyze.

“You always think too much. You’ve already passed the audition. At most, you’ll be eliminated in the first episode. It’s nothing.” Jiang Li snorted.

“The students I’ve taught would be artists even if they’re not designers in the future.”

After hearing Jiang Li’s words, Hu Miao finally had her first smile.

She heaved a sigh of relief. “Yes, I still want to have a chance to hold an art exhibition in the future. Recently, a foreign friend was holding a traveling art exhibition. I tried it out with my work, but it did not get accepted.”

Jiang Li knew about this art exhibition. It was a business that Lydia and Fu Yunze had invested in. The paintings on display were not bad, but they were too commercial and were not suitable for Hu Miao.

She said, “You don’t have to think about that art exhibition. It’s just for some people. It has nothing to do with us.”

Hu Miao was stunned at first, and her eyes were filled with disappointment. She smiled and said, “So that’s how it is.”

“You should take part in the show and give it a try. If you’re interested in developing in this direction, I can bring you to practice. That won’t be a problem.” Jiang Li turned her eyes and looked around.

She leaned forward and said seriously, “Qing Xin is very short of people, but she is still disappointed that she hasn’t received a satisfactory disciple after so many years.”

Hu Miao looked at Jiang Li in surprise. “You are also Qing Xin’s student.”

“Except for me, she is not satisfied.” Jiang Li waved her hand and said proudly.

Hu Miao was thoroughly amused, and the gloominess in her heart disappeared without a trace.

The waiter served the dishes. They ate and chatted as they ate. There was nothing special about the program, but it made Hu Miao open her heart and become more confident.

Jiang Li was right.

She should participate first.

Then only feel what it would be like.

If she was not suitable for this line of work, it could be considered an attempt.

“Thank you, Jiang Li.” Hu Miao picked up her drink and looked at Jiang Li respectfully.

Jiang Li pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and asked, “What did you call me?”

Hu Miao quickly changed her words, “Thank you, Teacher Jiang!”
