    She looked around and noticed that the first floor was filled with new seasonal products.


    Women’s clothing was disyed in the front, while men’s clothing was situated in the rear.


    “I’d like to speak with your boss regarding a potential coboration. Is he currently avable?”


    Hearing that Xia Wan was inquiring about the boss, the waiter seemed a bit surprised, but he quicklyposed himself. “The boss isn’t in the shop right now, but his residence is right next door. If you’re certain you need to see our boss, I can run an errand for you.


    “However, it’s best if you could let me know the reason you wish to speak with our boss. Otherwise, our boss may find it inconvenient if people keeping to look for him without exnation.”


    Xia Wan nodded, indicating her understanding of the waiter’s concerns. She retrieved a folded piece of paper from her backpack and handed it to the waiter.


    “Take this and inform him that I’m interested in coborating. See if he’s open to the idea.”


    The waiter epted the piece of paper, which felt a bit sturdier than ordinary paper, and carried it to the boss with a sense of curiosity.


    About half an hourter, the shop’s door opened. The woman who entered wore a red cheongsam. Her ck hair glistened like ink, exuding a charming and enchanting aura.


    As she entered the shop, her gaze zeroed in on Xia Wan, and she spoke directly, “Did you design that dress?”


    Xia Wan didn’t deny it. “Yes, I did. I hope my designs have piqued your interest. ”


    The female boss smiled. “You’re quite young, yet you possess a wealth of creativity. I’m quite fond of your design sketches. Follow me to the meeting room. ”


    With that, the female boss took a couple of steps forward and turned back to address Zhou En. “Please remain in the shop for a while. Feel free to browse our collection or enjoy some tea and snacks.”


    Her intention was clear; she didn’t want Zhou En to be part of her discussion with Xia Wan.


    Zhou En didn’t take offense and followed the other waitstaff to the lounge area.


    The female boss led Xia Wan to her usual office.


    The office featured arge floor-to-ceiling window that overlooked the bustling street. In addition, there were leather sofas and a sizable coffee table.


    The female boss unfolded the design drawing, a bright smile on her face. “The concept of your fashion designs is very contemporary. I’ve studied abroad before, and I can detect some foreign influences in the clothing you’ve designed.”


    “May I ask if you’ve studied abroad?”


    Xia Wan shook her head. “No, I’m just a third-year student.”


    The female boss appeared surprised. ‘You’re still in your third year of high school?”


    “You don’t seem very old. How can you prove that you created these designs yourself?” she inquired.


    “It’s not that I judge people based on appearances,” she rified. “You see, my shop has a sterling reputation, and many individuals have approached me for coboration. However, some of them are genuinely talented, while others simply reassemble ideas from various sources.”


    Xia Wan understood her point and didn’t take offense at her suspicion.


    “I can draw a design for you right here,” Xia Wan offered.


    “Sure,” the female boss epted without hesitation.


    The female boss provided a pen and paper, and Xia Wan considered for a moment before beginning to sketch.


    As Xia Wan worked on her design, the female bosspared the two drawings, ultimately verifying that Xia Wan had also created the initial design.


    By the time Xia Wanpleted the second sketch, the female boss was fully convinced.


    “I apologize for doubting you earlier. You are indeed the designer of this work,” she acknowledged graciously.


    Xia Wan smiled and didn’t take offense. In fact, she was quite satisfied with the female boss’s cautious approach.


    If just anyone could coborate with Qingge Clothing Store, it might not have maintained such a sterling reputation.


    The female boss cut to the chase. ‘Your designs are exceptional, but we handle production, external sales, and brand establishment. Therefore, I’ll present three coboration options.”


    “The first option is for us to purchase your designs outright at a generous price.”


    “The second option allows you to provide your designs, and we will pay you a percentage of the proceeds from clothing sales.”


    “The third method involves us providing you with a lump sum for each design you create. In the future, if your designs sell well, we will continue to provide you with a share, albeit a smaller onepared to the second method.”


    With her exnationplete, the female boss turned to Xia Wan. “Which coboration option do you prefer? Please let me know..”
