Chapter 706 Completely not like this
Gu Manman felt very helpless. The reason that she suspended her career of designing was that she felt that there was a bottleneck in her career, which could not be seen or touched, but when she reached this stage, she could naturally feel it.
She didn’t know how to describe this stage, but she knew that during it, no matter what she did, there seemed to be resistance for her. She felt really helpless. She had tried many times to break through this invisible barrier, but she failed.
It was because this sort of bottleneck was truly frightening. It was capable of trapping her in an intangible manner, making her feel that she would not be able to move in the slightest.
The bottleneck stage was torture for anyone who liked designing. It could even be described as a nightmare. Gu Manman did not even want to recall how decadent she had been when she felt stuck like this. She did not know if Gu Yan had such a phase on her own. Before she came to the studio, she had gone to study Gu Yan’s works.
It had to be said that Gu Yan was really a talented designer. Gu Manman didn’t even feel a fixed style in Gu Yan’s works. Gu Manman felt that every work of hers seemed like designed by different people. In this aspect, Gu Manman admired Gu Yan very much.
Now Gu Manman didn’t know what to do. Looking at the blank design page in front of her, she felt a little depressed. “Will I never be able to break through this bottleneck stage in my life? Will I really have to say goodbye to my beloved design work for the rest of my life?”
This was not something that she wished to happen, but she had no choice. She didn’t know what to do to make a satisfying design plan.
She had accepted this design work on impulse, but soon she regretted it. Because she didn’t know if she was still in this stage.
Previously, she had various kinds of ideas, which were all about designs. She had been secretly glad that she had passed that terrifying stage. She thought that she could freely perform her talent in the design field and do what she liked.
However, when she sat in front of the computer and tried to do some actual work, she felt powerless again. She felt as if she was trapped in an endless net again and could not break free at all.
Gu Manman slammed the table hard with a loud bang. The other people in the studio all looked sideways. They didn’t know what was going on with her, but when they found her face terrifyingly darkened, no one dared to provoke her.
At this time, Gu Manman did not want anyone else to bother her, so when everyone pretended not to hear the noise, she felt satisfied. But even if no one bothered her, still, she could not get her work done.
She felt a little sad. This was obviously a good opportunity to prove herself in front of Jiang Jingcheng, but she couldn’t grasp it. Such a good opportunity was right in front of her, and she could only watch it slip away.
It was not that she didn’t want to fight for it, but that she couldn’t get this opportunity at all. Thinking about it, she collapsed in the chair.
The current Gu Manman didn’t want to think about anything. She didn’t want to think about her design work or whether Jiang Jingcheng had feelings for her. She didn’t want to think about whether Gu Yan would look down on her.
Gu Manman only wanted to clear her head at the moment. She felt that these things were about to explode in her mind, so she didn’t want to think about them anymore.
“Manman, aren’t you leaving?” The person who asked the question was her colleague who had a good relationship with her. Gu Manman was really abnormal today, but no one knew why. They thought it was impossible that she was worried about work. At the same time, they felt a bit jealous of her because Ms. Gu personally handed over such an important task to her.
However, they still felt happy for Gu Manman. After all, she had done too many things to offend Jiang Jingcheng before. In this studio, Jiang Jingcheng was second in command. What was the difference between provoking him and directly offending Gu Yan?
Now that Gu Yan had returned, she had handed over such an important design to Gu Manman. Although no one knew why, Gu Manman had been in a bad situation because she had offended Jiang Jingcheng. Not only had he been picking on her, but Gu Manman usually did not do much efficient work.
Now Gu Yan finally saw Gu Manman’s talent. Everyone was happy for her. In the past few days, Gu Manman had been like she was so confident that she would win. When everyone asked her about her design, she would say that it was ready. Then why was she acting so weird today?
Seeing that Gu Manman was not in a working state at all, everyone was worried. Gu Manman was an outgoing person and she was very good at livening up the atmosphere in the studio. Therefore, when she seemed quiet today, everyone noticed that they did not like this side of hers very much.
Gu Manman didn’t know how long she had been lost in thought before she was pulled back to reality by this question. She looked up at the time in a daze and found that it was time to get off work. She didn’t want to stay here anymore. This office, which she had thought was quite spacious, was now making her feel suffocated.
“I’ll leave just a bit later. You go first. Don’t worry about me.”
Looking at her colleague’s worried expression, Gu Manman knew how much she had lost her composure today, but she really couldn’t control herself.
Although she couldn’t wait to leave the studio, she didn’t want to leave with the others. It would be crowded in the elevator, and someone would definitely ask her what was going on. Did she really have to tell everyone that she couldn’t make the design that Gu Yan wanted, so she just sat in the office all afternoon?
Needless to say, it was impossible.
Gu Manman sat in her workplace quietly. When almost everyone had left, she picked up her bag and left and did not want to tidy her things on her table at all. She was even wearing high heels. “What a joke. In order to attract the attention of Jiang Jingcheng, I’m really using different methods.”
Gu Manman was a person who liked wearing sneakers. In order to attract more attention from Jiang Jingcheng, she imitated Gu Yan’s dressing style every day in various ways. Now Gu Manman felt that it was really ridiculous that in order to attract Jiang Jingcheng’s attention, she was willing to do anything.
But what about Jiang Jingcheng? It was okay that he didn’t have her in his heart, but Gu Manman even suspected that he didn’t take her seriously at all. Otherwise, why did he not talk or laugh with her when he treated everybody else in a friendly way?
