Chapter 1: Encounter at the Bar
Although Xingou has not yet opened, the design that needs to be completed, Ye Xuanmo has already finished all of them. Once the store decoration is complete, these clothes can be put in the store as samples.
City A is an international metropolis, where high-society people, especially women, are vain about their appearance, and clothes are the best way to show off their taste, so high-end bespoke ladies' wear should be in demand.
She had done a survey before, and A city has women's bespoke clothing, but it is not high-end enough, not unique enough, and fundamentally not enough to show their wealth and noble status.
However, before the opening, Ye Xuan must seize the time to send out promotional films, so as to expand its popularity in advance.
Gu Jiaxi specially gave up a movie she had previously struggled to get, so that she could clear out a lot of time to slowly complete the filming and strive for high-quality promotional videos. She didn't want Ye Xuanfen to lose after all.
When Gu Jiaxi put on the first dress, she liked it extremely. It was a milky white evening gown, flowing and lively, like a girl from the clouds, with nobility and elegance, sanctity and kindness, yet not appearing weak at all, independent and unapproachable, elegant and inviolable.
Such clothes need to be shot in the water, which is Gu Jia Chen's weakness. She can't even swim, let alone dive. Especially when she saw that Mo Han Xuan, the director responsible for filming, was called over and said a few words, she felt even more uncertain about her future. However, for Ye Muo Fen, Gu Jia Chen went all out, anyway, it's not like she hasn't been targeted before.
It was a glass container over three meters high, filled with water. Next, Gu Jiaxi would jump in and start filming. The lid on top would be closed, but it would open every minute to let Gu Jiaxi breathe again.
Just then, Gu Jiaxi suddenly panicked and had a feeling of impending death. Even if she could barely control her panic, she didn't know what actions to take. After shooting for an entire morning, there was no progress at all.
"Sister, I'm sorry." In the rest room, Gu Jiaxi had a guilty look on her face.
"Am I asking for too much?" Ye Xuan began to reflect, thinking that underwater photography could better showcase the flowing, romantic and beautiful aspects of a garment.
"It's all because I'm too useless." Gu Jiaxi was very disheartened. "But sis, next time I'll definitely do a good job filming!"
"If you really can't adapt, we can change the way and let you shoot in a studio, then change the background to underwater in post-production."
"No way!" Gu Jiaxiu flatly refused, "It would be much less effective that way."
"But..."
"Don't worry, give me a few more chances and I'll definitely get it done!" Gu Jiaxuan smiled mischievously at Ye Qianyu, "Alright, I've rested enough, let's start!"
It's just underwater, Gu Jiaxiang will definitely be fine!
Ye Qiongmo was worried, every time she saw her dive to the bottom of the water, failing repeatedly, and trying again and again. Ye Qiongmo felt very distressed, but Gu Jiaxiang's progress seemed really great, although she could only hold on for half a minute, she had already naturally opened her eyes and made corresponding movements.
Watching Gu Jiaxi endure the discomfort of hypoxia in the water, still smiling brightly, Ye Xuan's eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter.
In the office, Ou Mu-xuan was looking at files and felt a little uneasy in his heart. Just now when he passed by the design department, not passing by, but deliberately finding an excuse to pass by, as a result, he didn't see Ye Xuan-mei, but instead saw the person he least wanted to see, Mo Han-xin.
Mo Hanxun seemed to be on the phone, saying something like "teach her a lesson" and whatnot. Who she wanted to teach a lesson to, Ou Muxuan didn't want to ask, nor was he interested. But now, why did he feel such intense unease?
"President, there's a meeting at three o'clock." Gu Xin rushed over to remind him on purpose. If it were in the past, it would be unnecessary, but now their president was going through a breakup and often forgot about such things.
"Gu Xin, do you know where the starry sky is?" When he saw her, his heart ached. Not seeing her made him feel uneasy. Ou Mu Xuan hated this feeling extremely, but couldn't shake it off no matter how much work he added to himself. This uneasy feeling lingered on.
"Miss Starry Sky rented a studio today to shoot a short film." This was something that Gu Xin had investigated early on.
"Where is the place?"
"Mr Ou, are you going to visit your class?"
"Inspection!" He said, and strode out of the office.
"But President Ou... " But President Ou, what about your meeting? Is it cancelled again? How many meetings have you postponed this month for Miss Xingkong, do you even count?
The last shot, after that Gu Jiaxi can finally rest, Ye Xuanmo can also finally breathe a sigh of relief, only when they reached the bottom of the water, Gu Jiaxi's hairstyle was blown somewhat messy by the water.
Ye Xuanmo borrowed a ladder from the side and jumped into the water to help Gu Jiaxi tidy up her clothes, dive and so on. For Ye Xuanmo, that was nothing. She used to play with her son by the sea all the time.
Gu Jiaxiang's face was covered with an oxygen mask and she couldn't speak, while Ye Xuanmo held her breath to help her tidy up her hair.
After finishing, the staff removed the oxygen mask from Gu Jiaxi's face and floated to the surface, leaving. Ye Xiangmo made a victorious gesture at Gu Jiaxi at the bottom of the water, just as he was about to leave, the lid of the glass container suddenly closed!
The lid is specially made and can't be opened without the machine, but now the machine seems to have broken down, so everyone is in a state of confusion!
There were people who sounded the alarm, those who sought help, and those who stood on the escalator trying to open the cover. However, there were also those who stood by and secretly enjoyed it.
A sealed container, all water inside, no enough oxygen, Ye Xuan and Gu Jiaxiang can't hold on for long!
The pain of hypoxia gradually approached, Ye Xuan entered the water and hugged Gu Jiaxi.
But Gu Jiaxiang was not good at diving, and in the panic, he wanted to open his mouth to speak, but as soon as he did, all the stored oxygen escaped, and subconsciously wanting to breathe, he sucked in a large amount of icy water!
Water entered the lungs, wanting to cough but unable to cough out, could only instinctively drink large mouthfuls of water with sand and gravel.
At this point, Ye Xuan also started to panic, grabbing Gu Jiaxi and transferring the oxygen in her mouth to hers, but she subconsciously spat it all out.
The feeling of hypoxia also gradually threatened Ye Xuanmo, but what she was most worried about was Gu Jiateng. So, taking advantage of the buoyancy of the water, she floated up and tried to push the lid with force. However, with her strength, she couldn't budge the lid at all!
Then, in a state of urgency, Ye Xuan began to use her fists to pound the glass, one after another, but all this was completely useless!
The oxygen in her body was getting less and less, and Ye Xuan's brain was also getting more and more dizzy...
