The right way to rescue someone who has been out of the closet

After finishing the first draft all night, Ye Lan took a shower and rushed to work, with a little tiredness under her eyes, but a radiant face.

Lu Qiaoqiao wore a white suit today, which made her exquisite figure even more charming.Ye Lan took an M&M and greeted her with a smile: "Why are you so beautiful today? Are you going on a date with your boyfriend?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Qiaoqiao puffed up her cheeks, glared at him angrily, and lowered her voice, "There's a big person coming to the office, Mr. Fei told us to pay attention!"

"Big shot?" Ye Lan accidentally crushed a chocolate bean, "Who?"

Lu Qiaoqiao pouted in the direction of the general manager's office: "The big guy who came to discuss business last time!"

Min Wenwei?

Ye Lan suddenly remembered the phrase "see you tomorrow" that Min Wenwei said yesterday when he was leaving, and had a headache: "Why is he here?"

"Boss Fei said he came to work as a supervisor, and he will stay in Limei until you hand in the manuscript. He is sitting in the empty office next to Fei Boss."

The temple was bursting with pain, Ye Lan stretched out her hand to rub it, and said helplessly, "Boss Fei didn't say anything?"

Lu Qiaoqiao shrugged: "What else can Mr. Fei say? Party A is the biggest!"

Ye Lan was speechless immediately, and pressed her temples back to her seat. Hua Hui came over with a piece of manuscript paper: "Brother Lan, this picture was thrown to me by the boss. It should not be used anymore. How do you deal with it?"

Ye Lan glanced at it. It was the same pendant sample of the web drama that he imitated and painted last time. He waved his hand indifferently: "Let's put it together with the previous ones."

After entering Limei for more than two years, there are not many serious original design drawings left, but a bunch of so-called Taobao same models.Ye Lan asked Hua Hui to find a cardboard box and put everything in it, out of sight.

Min Wenwei didn't come out of the office the whole morning, Lu Qiaoqiao took the opportunity to deliver the documents to Fei Yuande, looked up, and came back to report to Ye Lan: Min Wenwei is not here.

Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, Min Wenwei had just become the CEO of Wanhua, so how could he have time to spend in a poor place like Limei.

Staying restless until after get off work, the fatigue of staying up all night finally appeared, Ye Lan lay on the table for a while, and woke up in a daze after everyone had left.

He rubbed his eyes, and when he looked up, he found Min Wenwei leaning against the workbench with a half-smile. He didn't know how long he stood there.

The drowsiness disappeared all of a sudden, Ye Lan lowered her head to avoid his scorching gaze, and began to pack her things and prepare to go home.

Min Wenwei ran over after finishing his official business, and originally wanted to invite Ye Lan to dinner.No one was blocked at the door, but when he came upstairs, he saw Ye Lan's sleeping face. He didn't have the heart to disturb him. After finally waiting for Ye Lan to wake up, he turned a blind eye again.

There was a faint anger in his heart, Min Wenwei suppressed it, but still softened his tone: "Ye Lan, don't do this, give me and Wanhua another chance."

Ye Lan stopped, as if she had heard a big joke.He twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a sarcastic smile: "President Min, why, aren't you afraid that I will affect your and Wanhua's reputation this time?"

What Min Wenwei wanted to say was blocked in his throat, and his anger dissipated in an instant.He raised his hand to cover his bangs, and turned his eyes away in embarrassment.

Three years ago, Ye Lan participated in a very small overseas jewelry design competition.The contest was held by a private collector. Ye Lan saw the news on the Internet by accident, painted a design draft and submitted it, but didn't hold much expectation.

A few months later, the judges sent him an email, informing him that his design draft had been shortlisted, and the organizer provided him with an air ticket to invite him to watch the ceremony.Surprised and delighted, Ye Lan boarded the plane with an electronic dictionary full of anticipation.

The awards ceremony was not grand, but more like a private reception. After Ye Lan received the shortlisted awards backstage, she found an empty corner to act as a background board, comforting herself that her English is not good, and it would be embarrassing to accept the awards on stage.Many award-winning designers did not come, and there were only a few local media at the venue, and the rest were private guests of collectors.Ye Lan knew that these well-dressed foreigners were big names in the international jewelry industry. He clutched the electronic dictionary in his suit pocket tightly, but still couldn't muster the courage to talk to someone.

After the ceremony is over, go back to the hotel and stay, Ye Lan is planning to be bored.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Charles Yip?"

At first, Ye Lan didn't realize that someone was accosting him, until the person walked up to him, frowned slightly, and looked at him in confusion: "Sir?"

Ye Lan blinked, then raised her head in a daze: "Huh?"

The man smiled instead: "Chinese?"

"Yes, yes," Ye Lan realized that the other party called him by his English name just now, he smiled embarrassedly, "Call me Ye Lan, may I ask who you are?"

"Is that Ye Lan? I'm Min Wenwei from Wanhua Jewelry, nice to meet you." The young man on the opposite side had a handsome face, and the well-tailored suit revealed his good figure. His eyes were like gentle smiles, like spring wind and rain.

Ye Lan blushed, her heart was pounding, and she stammered excitedly: "Ah...you, hello! I, I like your company's design very much!"

Wanhua Jewelry is a well-known jewelry design company in China. It has long led the fashion trend of original jewelry and is a temple in the hearts of jewelry designers.He had fantasized countless times that he could work in Wanhua, but it was a pity that he was just thinking about it.Wanhua only recruits students who have graduated from prestigious universities majoring in jewelry design, or designers who have won awards in international jewelry design competitions. Ye Lan is from Ye Luzi, and the resumes submitted by him are all without exception.

Min Wenwei smiled with relief: "That's great, I thought you've been abroad for a long time, so I haven't heard of it."

Ye Lan rubbed her nose in embarrassment: "This is the first time I have gone abroad, so I made you laugh."

"Mr. Water, the initiator of this competition, is my friend. He showed me your design draft, and I think it's great! By the way, the sapphire in the center of the necklace is very irregular in shape, but it just makes me feel very Familiar. Because I care too much, I can't help but want to ask, is there any meaning?"

"That, I designed it after the shape of Houhai. Houhai is located in the center of the imperial capital, and I liked going there very much when I was young."

Min Wenwei's eyes lit up: "The name of the design draft is 'shape of my heart', so it means—"

The two said in unison: "The heart of the imperial capital!"

Min Wenwei laughed clearly, and Ye Lan excitedly burst out a few drops of sweat from his nose. The feeling of meeting a confidant in a foreign country is really great. He chattered about his creative ideas: "The biggest sapphire is It is characterized by uneven color, like an unpredictable lake surface. In terms of material selection, my initial idea was to use Kashmir sapphire..."

Min Wenwei interjected with a smile: "You are really greedy. Kashmir sapphires have been dug out long ago. If you want to mass-produce them, consider Mogok in Myanmar or Sri Lanka."

"But those colors are not enough... Also, most sapphires are paired with platinum, but I want to try a different color scheme, using 18K yellow gold that symbolizes the royal family..."

Ye Lan babblingly introduced that he had worked behind closed doors for many years, and finally met a professional insider, and couldn't help pouring out his thoughts.

Min Wenwei listened with a smile all the way, and asked carefully from time to time. When the reception was over, Ye Lan secretly looked at Min Wenwei with unsatisfied interest. He wanted to get acquainted, but couldn't muster up the courage.

On the contrary, Min Wenwei took out his business card and handed it over generously: "I admire your talent very much. I wonder if you are not willing to come to Wanhua? We will start preparing for the spring new product launch soon. I would like to invite you to design the main jewelry .”

A huge surprise rushed to the top of her head, and Ye Lan couldn't help trembling all over her body.He never dreamed that he would have such an encounter. After years of hard work, he finally managed to keep the clouds open and see the moon. Through his blurred vision, he almost saw the day when his dream came true.

Everything that followed seemed to be in order.After returning to China, Ye Lan completed the entry procedures through Min Wenwei's relationship and became a member of Wanhua Jewelry. Min Wenwei also launched a passionate pursuit of him.

Only then did he know that Min Wenwei was the heir of Wanhua Group.Because he is too young, the board of directors suggested that he should first rotate within the company, and then take over the group after he is familiar with the company.When I met Ye Lan, it happened that Min Wenwei was in the planning department, and he was in charge of this spring new product launch.

Ye Lan was very regretful, how could a friend of a well-known jewelry collector be an idler?Thinking of the difference in identity between Min Wenwei and himself, the deep inferiority complex made him almost give up.

At that time, Min Wenwei had just graduated from abroad and returned to China. He was young and frivolous, he didn't care about his status, and he fell in love with him.The hot feelings are like summer sunshine, domineeringly illuminating the darkness in Ye Lan's heart.In the end, Ye Lan still couldn't bear the longing for warmth, and she was willing to sink into the sweet love, living in the clouds every day, as light as a dream.

During the Spring Festival, Min Wenwei invited him to his home for the New Year. Ye Lan was flattered and thought that he would introduce himself to his family.On New Year's Eve, he found an excuse to avoid Ye Ying, put on a formal suit, carried a gift, and hurried to the banquet in fear.

The moment he entered the door, deafening firecrackers rang in his ears, and colorful shreds of paper fell from the air, blinding Ye Lan in place.Men and women in strange costumes looked at him and burst out laughing.

This is not a serious family banquet at all, but a carnival party hosted by Min Wenwei.

Surrounded by a group of cover models in scantily clad clothes, Min Wenwei staggered over with champagne in his hand: "Hey, are you here?" He looked Ye Lan's clothes up and down, and said "tsk" in disgust: "It was originally I want to introduce my friend to you, what a disappointment you are dressed like this!"

Ye Lan looked around, the spacious living room was transformed into a temporary bar, the corners were filled with spotlights, and the dense wires were like ugly tentacles, tightly entwining the excited people like beasts.He instinctively resisted, with a look of pleading for help in his eyes: "Where are you, your family?"

"Oh, we're having New Year's Eve dinner up there." Min Wenwei drank all the champagne in his glass and waved his hand, "This is my home game, so I won't take care of you. Play whatever you want, just have fun!"

Someone in the crowd called him, and Min Wenwei responded, and walked away under the push and push of the cover models, without looking back at Ye Lan.

Ye Lan resisted the urge to turn around and run away, passed through the lustful crowd, found a corner and sat down, sipping her drink one mouthful at a time.When it's over, talk to Min Wenwei and tell him that he doesn't like this, Ye Lan is delusional.

Someone came over to accost him, Ye Lan looked up and searched in the crowd, Min Wenwei was flirting with a pretty boy, and didn't notice him at all.Ye Lan lowered her eyes in disappointment and rejected everyone's invitation.

After sitting there until midnight, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving a mess all over the place.Across the empty living room, Min Wenwei finally noticed Ye Lan who was sitting alone in a corner.He raised his eyebrows, looking very surprised: "Are you still there?"

Ye Lan stood up: "Well, I, I think..."

Min Wenwei raised his hand to stop his words: "Let's talk about it another day. I still have things to do." The boy snuggling up to him laughed wildly. He licked his lips, "It's so sweet."

Ye Lan stared blankly, and what came to mind was the image of Min Wenwei hugging him lightly last night and saying that he loved him.He didn't know what was going on in this world, he felt in a trance that he was dreaming, and he became a cannon fodder supporting role in a bloody romance drama, completely unaware of how ridiculous he was.

The boy glanced at Ye Lan and whispered something to Min Wenwei.Min Wenwei laughed loudly, twisted his waist, and threw something over: "Go back by yourself, I won't see you off."

Ye Lan mechanically reached out to catch it. It was a red car key with a yellow logo and a black horse printed on it.

Min Wenwei took the boy upstairs, and their laughter could still be heard all the way upstairs.Ye Lan stared at the car keys in her hand, her heart was dark.

Maybe Min Wenwei didn't know what he wanted, or maybe he didn't do well enough to disappoint him.Ye Lan comforted herself, look, doesn't he still remember you and give you his car?

...Although, I can't drive at all.
