“Serena, I've found the assistants I mentioned to you before. There are two sophomore girls and a junior boy. They are all waiting for you in the studio. Are you available to go there now?”(Serena,之前跟你说的助手我帮你找好了,两个大二学妹,一个大三学弟,都在工作室等你,你现在方便过去吗?)
“OK, professor. I'll be there soon.”(好的老师,我马上到。)
Lune Fleur的新春系列设计,是她眼下最重要的任务之一,不仅关乎奖金,更关乎她未来的履历。
她快步走向艺术楼的设计工作室,推开门,三个年轻的身影立刻站起身。
两个女生眉眼清秀,气质干净,男生身形挺拔,气质温和阳光。
“Hello, senior!”(学姐好!)三人异口同声地打招呼。
沈若斐微微点头,露出一抹温和的笑意:“Hello, I'm Serena. In the coming period, please help me complete the brand collaboration design together.”(大家好,我是Serena,接下来这段时间,麻烦大家和我一起完成品牌合作设计。)
“My name is Linny. I'm in the second year of the Fashion Design major.”(学姐好,我叫Linny,大二服装设计系。)左边扎着丸子头的女生活泼开朗。
“My name is Nia and I'm also a sophomore.”(学姐好,我叫Nia,也是大二的。)右边长发女生气质安静,笑起来有两个浅浅的梨涡。
“My name is Ryan. I'm a junior majoring in Visual Communication and I'm very interested in fashion design.”(我是Ryan,大三视觉传达,对服装设计很感兴趣。)男生声音清朗,态度礼貌又温和。
沈若斐指着身后的资料区:“Thank you all for coming early. This time we are collaborating with Lune Fleur, a brand that specializes in light luxury women's clothing with an Eastern-Western fusion theme. This time, we are planning a limited edition for the Chinese New Year in 2026 during the Year of the Horse. You can first take a look at the brand's previous designs, runway videos, and best-selling styles, and do some brainstorming. Feel free to share any initial ideas with me at any time. I still have one piece of clothing that needs to be revised, so let's handle that first.”(辛苦大家先过来,这次我们合作的是Lune Fleur,主打东西方融合的轻奢女装,这次要做的是2026马年中国新春限定。你们可以先看看品牌历年的设计、走秀视频和热卖款式,先做一下头脑风暴,有什么初步想法随时跟我说。我这边还有一件衣服要修改,先处理一下。)
“Senior, I feel like the materials I'm reading are a bit confusing. Could you please take a look and see if there's anything I can assist you with?”(学姐,我看资料看得有点乱,过来看看你这边有没有什么需要帮忙的?)
沈若斐回头,笑了笑:“No thanks. This is a personal piece of clothing. I'll just resize it myself for my younger brother.”(不用啦,这件是私人的衣服,给一个弟弟改尺寸,我自己来就好。)
“The size adjustment is quite simple. Let me get you a ruler for you.”(改尺寸很简单的,我帮你拿尺子吧。)Ryan不由分说,拿起旁边的软尺,主动站到她身边,“I usually measure dimensions when doing visual work as well, and I'm quite proficient at it.”(我平时做视觉也经常量尺寸,很熟练的。)
沈若斐不好推辞,便点了点头。
两人安静地配合着,Ryan量尺寸,沈若斐记数据,气氛轻松自然。
“Did the senior go to class this morning? Just now when I came in, I saw you holding a textbook.”(学姐上午是去上课了吗?刚才进来的时候看你拿着课本。)Ryan随口问道。
“Well, I attended a calculus refresher class.”(嗯,去上了一节高数补习。)沈若斐轻轻叹了口气,语气带着几分无奈。
Ryan愣了一下,满脸疑惑:“高数?不是上学期就已经期末考试了吗?现在都已经是下学期中段了……”(Advanced Mathematics? Didn't we have the final exam last semester? Now it's already the middle of the next semester...)
沈若斐有些不好意思地笑了笑:“I didn't pass the exam last semester, so I have to take a make-up exam.”(上学期没考过,所以要补考。)
Ryan立刻开口:“Is that senior available in the evening? I can help you with your calculus review. I remember the concepts quite well.”(那学姐晚上有空吗?我可以帮你补习高数,我知识点记得还挺牢的。)
沈若斐微微一怔:“But you're a junior. Does the advanced mathematics course I'm taking cover any knowledge from the senior level? Do you understand it?”(可是你是大三的,我学的高数有大四的知识点吗?你懂吗?)
话音刚落,Linny和Nia也走了进来,听到这话,Linny立刻笑着解释:“Senior, Ryan is a real superstar in our school! He attended Whitney High School during high school, which is one of the top private high schools in Los Angeles. Back then, he was the champion of the math Olympiad, and advanced mathematics was a piece of cake for him!”(学姐你不知道,Ryan可是我们学校的大神!高中是在Whitney High School读的,那可是洛杉矶最顶尖的私立高中,他当年可是数学奥赛冠军,高数对他来说简直是小菜一碟!)
Whitney High School,她当然知道,洛杉矶排名第一的私立高中,升学率惊人,无数名流权贵的孩子都在那里读书,能在那里拿到奥赛冠军,数学功底可想而知。
“So impressive! Well, then I'll have to thank you, Ryan.”(这么厉害啊,那就麻烦你啦Ryan。)沈若斐甜甜地笑起来,以表感谢。 “No problem. Helping each other is what's expected.”(不麻烦,互相帮助应该的。)Ryan笑得温和。
傍晚时分,几人一起吃过简单的晚餐,Ryan准时找到沈若斐:“Senior, the study room on the second floor of the library has a very nice environment - quiet and spacious. How about it?”(学姐,图书馆二楼的自习室环境很好,安静又宽敞,怎么样?)
“OK, I'll go get my textbook and workbook. I'll be back soon.”(好,我回去拿一下课本和习题册,马上就到。)
