Boss Mo’s Predestined Love Brought by Surrogacy

Chapter 717 - Do everything one can



Chapter 717 Do everything one can

While Gu Manman was thinking wildly, Gu Yan’s sudden words pulled her mind back to reality. Gu Manman could not help feeling a little nervous because she did not know how her boss thought of her ideas.

“She said that my ideas appeared too messy?”

Gu Manman had never thought about it in this way before. “They appear too messy. What does it mean?” She clenched her fists, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palms. “I don’t know what she will say next. Will she give me some advice nicely? Or will she just say something that will hurt my self-esteem?”

Gu Manman did not know the answers to those questions, because she did not know Gu Yan’s character at all. Moreover, neither Qi Changfeng nor Jiang Jingcheng was there. And it was just Gu Manman that was facing Gu Yan. Even her colleagues who worked in the same office had not come to work yet. Gu Manman was very nervous because she did not know what Gu Yan would say next.

She bucked up and got herself prepared for whatever Gu Yan was going to say to her. In this way, she would be able to respond in time. After all, what her boss had said to her earlier could not be considered nice words. Gu Manman knew that her work was not very good, but she was still embarrassed to hear it coming out of Gu Yan’s mouth so bluntly.

Gu Manman instantly stopped moving and waited quietly for Gu Yan to continue.

So she just stared at Gu Yan quietly, who was staring at the computer screen without blinking. She did not realize that what she had just said was like a bomb in Gu Manman’s heart, stirring up a huge wave. She just frowned and looked at the computer screen in front of her, carefully thinking about what to say next to Gu Manman.

“Your ideas are nice.”

Gu Yan remained silent for a long while, but then she suddenly opened her mouth again, which made Gu Manman’s heart thump along with her talking. But at least these words were good because they were a compliment after all. However, Gu Manman was not complacent, because she was very clear that Gu Yan would say more about her ideas.

As expected, Gu Yan continued with her assessment.

“These ideas are irrelevant to each other, so you can’t use them in the same design. In an excellent design work, it’s not that the more elements you have, the better it would be. You have to pay attention to the relationship between these elements. If you just randomly combine them, your design will end up as a lousy job.”

Gu Yan’s voice was like a gurgling stream, gently caressing Gu Manman’s heart, which gradually became softened. It had to be said that at this moment, Gu Manman still felt that a woman like Gu Yan was only very attractive to men and she herself was just too careless and not gentle enough for the most time. This was her own thinking, and she was very clear about it.

These thoughts had appeared in Gu Manman’s mind out of nowhere as Gu Yan was talking. After running these irrelevant thoughts in her head, Gu Manman calmed down and carefully reflected on Gu Yan’s words. “Is it true that my design appears too messy?”

“Now you are in a dilemma because you’ve been overthinking and been eager for conveying too many things, but you can’t use so many ideas in one single design work. You have to learn to choose the lighter tasks. It’s not like the more things the better. You can note down the inspiration you have at the moment first, and then weigh which ideas are more suitable for your design, instead of writing them all down.”

After saying these words, Gu Yan suddenly understood why she felt that Gu Manman’s creations were giving her a headache. There were just too many contents in them, where Gu Yan could literally not differentiate which were primary ones and which were not. Design works should have their own structures and should not be added with everything.

This was why there would be simple works that could convey transparent opinions and look amazing.

After figuring this out, Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, there was nothing wrong with Gu Manman’s design, and it was not a big bottleneck for her. She just didn’t have enough experience in designing and hadn’t discovered the rules of designs. Normally, every designer would go through this stage.

And during this stage, a designer would want to do everything he could to express his work, by using all the design ideas he thought very good on it. He would want to use all his strength to make and decorate a design work. But for most of the time, because of what the designer had done, the work would end up appearing messy. Designing was usually like literature, which needed a certain theme.

With the theme, not only the designer but also the people who watched the work could accurately grasp the concepts that the designer wanted to express and convey.

After hearing Gu Yan’s words, Gu Manman did calm down and think about what Gu Yan had said carefully, which was indeed very reasonable. Furthermore, Gu Manman felt as if she had been enlightened all of a sudden. When she was making the design, she really felt that every idea was very good and that it would be a waste if she did not use all of them.

Therefore, all the thoughts in her mind were piled up on her own work. Later on, she didn’t know what she was going to do with them, so she could only stay where she was and be at a loss.

And then, she became unclear about what exactly she should do next. Now that Gu Yan had mentioned it, Gu Manman knew that there was indeed something wrong with her way of handling her design, but… Gu Manman also had her own thoughts. A lot of inspiration only lasted for a moment, and she felt lucky to use it in her design.

She was very afraid that if she hadn’t used an idea that she came up with in the design for this time, she would forget about it later. When she was designing, she wanted to use a certain idea, and she also wanted to use another one. At that time, she didn’t feel that she had used too many elements, but when she looked back at her work, it appeared indeed very chaotic.

Not letting her continue to doubt, Gu Yan also gave her actual instructions. For Gu Yan, it was an effective method. Although it seemed a little stupid, the method is really useful. Gu Yan felt that it was useful for herself, and it would definitely work for Gu Manman.

“Well, when inspiration comes to your mind, you don’t have to rush to apply these ideas to your design right away.”
