Chapter 292: Chapter 292: The Mercenary Captain (3)_1
"Hey, Aunt, how could you do this?" Situ Jin deflated instantly upon hearing Lu Juan’s words.
But Lu Juan ignored Situ Jin, who was on the sideline feeling struck. She turned to look at Situ Xin, her face filled with anticipation, waiting for Situ Xin’s reply. "Baby, what do you think?"
"When’s the next Fashion Week?" Situ Xin asked, thinking it over, and feeling that if she had spare time, there was no harm in attending. It would be like taking a trip. Since her rebirth, aside from sneaking off with Old Deng to Xiangjiang, she hadn’t really traveled much.
She didn’t know if it was because of her previous life, but in this life, Situ Xin found she didn’t have much interest in traveling. However, at the moment, Situ Xin thought of BL and felt a bit eager to go out and see the world.
"Oh, it’s in September or October, for the spring and summer collections," Lu Juan answered after some thought. Then, she cautiously asked, "Baby, are you free then? And, is there enough time?" Speaking of which, she didn’t understand what was going on with the staff of BL Fashion Week, sending out invitations so late in the game.
Lu Juan calmed herself and finally remembered the details of the event. To say, as a designer, preparing for a show requires a lot of time and energy. And those designers wanting to participate had already started their preparations long before the organizers announced the list.
"September or October, huh?" Situ Xin pondered. "I’m actually free during that time. As for whether there’s enough time, I think there shouldn’t be a problem. But Aunt, you need to get the fabrics I need ready." Situ Xin originally wanted Lu Juan to find a few skilled tailors to help her complete the clothing.
But just now, Situ Xin suddenly felt inspired to check on the sewing skills she had learned previously; it had been a long time since she last practiced, and she wasn’t sure if she had regressed.
"The fabric definitely won’t be a problem. Just give me the list," Lu Juan replied, her face blooming with a smile upon hearing that there was no issue. She completely forgot that Situ Xin knew how to sew. "I’ll be going then, I’m going to announce the good news to everyone right away and start preparing." With that, Lu Juan left, cheerfully skipping away.
As Situ Xin was reflecting on the processes of the previous life’s Fashion Week, by the time she snapped back to the present, Lu Juan was already gone. "Brother, where did Aunt go?" After looking around, Situ Xin turned to ask Situ Jin.
"She left," Situ Jin said, with a look that said "you were spacing out again" as he watched Situ Xin.
"Ah, why did she leave so suddenly? I still had things to ask her." Situ Xin frowned. She hadn’t gotten to ask her Aunt whether there was a specific theme required for the Fashion Week. That would help her decide on the design drafts. "Never mind, I’ll call her later. She didn’t even say goodbye before leaving," Situ Xin said as she headed to the classroom.
Situ Jin listened on the side, completely confused, but he decided to go back and do some research to understand what Situ Xin and Lu Juan had been talking about. Not just him, after Situ Xin went back and told Yu Qihao and Xiao Muli about Lu Juan’s visit, both men also went to look up information to understand the situation better.
After returning, Situ Xin called Lu Juan and confirmed that there were no specific requirements for this Fashion Week. It was all free-form. Since there were no specific rules, Situ Xin felt she could fully exercise her capabilities.
Previously, for the "Xin" clothing company, Situ Xin had used existing design drafts from the Jade Token, only slightly altering them to avoid being too extravagant and to make the designs align with current trends.
But this didn’t mean Situ Xin didn’t have her own ideas about the designs; her previous approach was simply out of laziness.
This time, however, Situ Xin didn’t feel like using the ready-made designs from the Jade Token. She wanted to use her true talent and put on a fashion show without any regrets.
In the space, Situ Xin sat with a pen in her hand, biting the pen cap, and staring blankly at the drawing paper on the desk. This BL Fashion Week was different from when she usually drew designs for the "Xin" clothing company. Although there was no theme requirement for the Fashion Week, the shows that designers put on needed to have their own themes.
This put Situ Xin in a dilemma.
With so many clothing styles from different eras in her mind, she now found it hard to choose a theme.
Baibai lay on the floor, looking at Situ Xin who rarely showed such an indecisive expression; then it glanced down at its stomach, which was growling with hunger. Weighing its options, it decided that its stomach was more important and braced for a scolding as it spoke up nervously, "Oh, Master, what’s bothering you? Baibai is hungry."
"Baibai is hungry, huh." Instead of scolding as Baibai had expected, Situ Xin put the pen down, touched her own stomach, and said, "I’m hungry too, let’s go eat first." Saying this, she picked up the still-bewildered Baibai and left the space.
As Baibai sat on its designated spot, enjoying its favorite fragrant meat, it was still a little incredulous. It hadn’t been scolded despite interrupting its master’s thoughts.
At this point, Situ Xin was happily eating her delicious meal as well, her previous irritability soothed. With a calmer mood, her thoughts also began to flow more freely.
She didn’t waste any time; as she ate, her mind never stopped considering which clothing styles to use for the fashion show. "Hm, evening gowns seem nice," Situ Xin thought as she chewed on her chopstick. "The previous evening gowns I designed were for my family, very conservative. This time for Fashion Week, it seems I can go for something slightly more sensual." The clothes she had previously designed were conservative because, in comparison to other countries, Country H was far more traditional.
If she had designed something more provocative a few years earlier, no matter how beautiful the clothes were, they would not have sold. "Xin" clothing company would have ceased to exist long ago.
