At first, Herman didn’t get it. He was holding a mask, looking at Anastasia with a puzzled expression.
Anastasia helplessly said, “You’re too good–looking. Those girls don’t even dare to approach you, how
am I supposed to do business?”
Realizing her words could be misconstrued, she quickly added, “Honey, I’m notining about you.
In fact, the more wonderful something is, the more people tend to respect it and not dare to be
disrespectful If your handsome face attracts other girls‘ attention, then I’m the one at a loss!”
This was the first time Anastasia had voluntarily called Herman “honey” except when necessary.
Feeling delighted, Herman put on his mask and said, “Alright then”
Anastasia smiled contentedly and then turned to the passersby saying, “Ladies, take a look. These
essories are one–of–a–kind, made by my own
hands.”
“Miss, I also take custom orders. Whatever you want, just tell me. All these essories are
handmade..”
Anastasia was very enthusiastic when attracting customers. Her sweet talk quickly drew the attention of
some girls. Every piece of jewelry Anastasia made was very delicate, unique, and interesting, with
various styles. Whether it was earrings, hair clips, or rings, they were all very beautiful
To showcase her jewelry, Anastasia also wore some of her own creations on her head and hands. She
was very beautiful, with lovely brown hair and smooth skin. The jewelry on her only added to her
beauty, attracting a lot of customers.
Girls loved these unique essories, and Anastasia’s prices were quite reasonable, 30 dors for one,
and 50 dors for a moreplex design.
Even the simplest piece took Anastasia an hour to make, while moreplex pieces required half a
day. Her selling point was handmade crafts, and coupled with the good designs, these female students
who were not short of money were willing to buy
Herman watched from the side, calcting the cost of Anastasia selling jewelry. The materials for these
pieces were not expensive, but they took a lot
of time to make
If Anastasia wanted to earn a few hundred dors a day, she would have to sell more than a dozen
pieces of jewelry, which would probably take her a whole day, or even two, to make.
Calcted this way, the profit was quite small.
After a group of customers left, Herman suggested, “Anastasia, your design skills are great. You could
totally be a jewelry designer. You like designing, but if you rely solely on your own handmade
production, the efficiency will be very low.”
“I’ve thought about it, but those bigpanies all require degrees,” Anastasia said. “Degrees are the
threshold for entering bigpanies. I don’t even have a bachelor’s degree. I only know how to
design, have no work experience, haven’t won any awards, and don’t have a good portfolio. They won’t
want me”
Anastasia looked at the billboard on the side of the road and said wistfully, “My biggest dream is to
be an outstanding jewelry designer like her.”
Following her gaze, Herman saw the woman on the billboard who was the lead designer for the jewelry
brand under Elysian Technologies, Selena.
Herman said, “You’re better than her”
Anastasiaughed and said, “She’s unparalleled in the jewelry design industry. She’s been to France
for further studies and won several awards there. She’s the lead designer for the jewelry brand under
Elysian Technologies. You both work at the samepany, have you met her in person?”
“I haven’t Herman answered honestly. As the CEO of thepany, he didn’t have time to meet a
designer.
The jewelry brand was just one of the industries under Elysian Technologies, a side business that
Herman had developed.
Anastasia said regretfully. That’s true. You’re a programmer, and she’s a jewelry designer, you guys
probably wouldn’t cross paths.”
Herman said, “The jewelrypany under Elysian Technologies is hiring new designers, you should
give it a shot”
Anastasia was about to speak, but Herman interrupted her, “How will you know if you don’t try? Elysian
Technologies needs real talents, not just people with degrees
With Herman’s encouragement, Anastasia felt more confident. “Elysian Technologies is really hiring
new designers? I thought they didn’t hire externally”
Herman dodged a bit, “I got some inside info. Thepany says they’ll hire externally this year”
This wasn’t a lie. Whether or not to hire externally entirely depended on Herman’s will.
Anastasia was very trusting “Right, you work at Elysian Technologies. Knowing some inside info is
normal”
In her mind, she wondered if Herman encouraging her to apply was because he wanted her to work at
the samepany and struggle together?
She was now making a living by setting up a stall, but she couldn’t keep doing this forever. Working
alone had very low efficiency, she preferred designing and hoped that more people could wear her
jewelry.
She and Herman were already married, he was a sessful white–cor worker, and they should
progress together and work hard together. She couldn’t drag him down.
If the economic power between two people was not synchronized and the gap widened, problems
would inevitably arise sooner orter.
“Alright, I’ll give it a shot, Anastasia said. “Are you hungry? I’ll go get something to eat”
Neither of them had had dinner yet, and Herman was indeed hungry.
“Sounds good,” Herman said I go get it! What do you want to eat?”
He felt bad for her because money wasn’t easy toe by, so he didn’t want her to spend it.

“I’ll go, you don’t know the area, Anastasia said, getting up. “There are some good restaurants on this
street. There’s a Mexican ce that’s really good, I
bet you’ve never had it. You watch the stall, I’ll be back soon”
Herman was left watching the stall, while Anastasia headed off
After she left, Duncan from the next stall came over, pulling out a pack of cigarettes Bro, want a
smoke?”
Herman had never smoked this brand before.
He took one, expressing his gratitude “Thanks”
Duncan sat on the bench, saying. “Dude, you’re so lucky Anastasia is amazing, she’s talented and
frugal, not to mention pretty, and has a heart of gold. You’re super lucky to have scored such a great
wife!”
