Steven Song takes me to a really fancy restaurant.
“It's just a lunch. Why come to such a fancy place? I want to eat quickly and go back to work.”
The drawing is on the table when I left, and I have covered it with something. How May Wilson hid my drawings before still scared me whenever I think about it.
That's my hope to make a lot of money, it can’t go wrong.
But Steven Song ignores me and takes me to the private room on the second floor.
There is a blond man with blue eyes and handsome features in the room. When I see him, my blood boils all over my body.
Donny!
He is a world-famous Italian jewelry designer! He has already been a director of international first-line brands at a young age. Many of the products he designed are guaranteed to sell out as soon as they come out.
Since I have a dream of being a designer, he has been my idol. Literally, he's my prince charming.
I have never thought that I can meet him here!
“Steven Song.”
I turn to Steven Song, my voice shaking with excitement.
“Surprise.” Steven Song smiles at me and walks over first to say hello to Donny.
“She is a promising new designer of our company. You will be in China for a month, please help to teach her.” Steven Song says and points at me.
“No problem.”
Donny says smilingly and nods at me.
I didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly. What's more, Donny's English is so good.
“Hello, my name is Jane Noyes, I work for Song Group.” I say nervously.
I have never been nervous facing Frances Louis. But it feels totally different when I meet my idol.
“Here is my card. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I come to America for traveling and inspiration. If you have time, you can take me somewhere interesting.”
My heart beats violently with every word he says.
I am embarrassed to look at him at lunch. Every time he looking at me would make me shiver nervously. For several times I can’t hold my fork stably.
“Why didn't you tell me you were bringing me to see Donny? At least I can change my clothes. White shirt and jeans are so disrespectful.” I lower my head and whisper to Steven Song.
Steven Song smiles at me evilly and says, “It wouldn't have been a surprise if I'd told you in advance. Don’t worry. Donny likes the designer who is pure and simple. He says only this way can a designer put all his or her heart into designing. So the more countrified you are, the more he likes you.”
