I Accepted It Already Chapter 4

The summer solstice event is not held in this city, but is a collaboration with a creative brand in City B.

Although the theme is "Summer Solstice", it is almost October now, and City A where they are located has already shown signs of early autumn in the morning and evening, with a slight chill. But City B is a coastal city, so it must still be sunny in summer, just like the reverberation of the summer solstice.

The event process has been reviewed many times, and the problem now lies with the device in the center of the event exhibition hall.

The original plan was to use a two-meter-tall brand mascot, but Nathan objected to it for a long time, thinking that the mascot did not fit the theme of the event and even looked abrupt. After several rounds of arguments with the partners, they finally changed it to a lighting device in the shape of the brand logo, which was beautiful but had little to do with the theme. It could only be said that the art style was unified.

Nathan said frankly: "I don't like this."

Aria yawned and said, "I don't like it either."

Rita said: "I don't like it either, but the problem is that it's too late to change it, and I don't have any good ideas."

While they were discussing, Austin came up with a bag of takeout in his left hand and a bag in his right hand. He placed the meals in front of everyone according to their orders. He leaned over to look at Nathan's tablet and said, "I have an idea."

All heads turned to stare at him.

Nathan was closest to him, and when he looked up he could see his left cheek. The strange thing was that when he wasn't smiling, there was no trace of the dimple at all, the skin on his face was smooth and shiny, his nose was straight, and his brow bones were prominent. When he wasn't smiling, his features were cold and sharp, and he was like two different people when he was smiling.

Aria asked, "What's the idea?"

Nathan woke up from his dream and parroted: "What idea?"

Austin ran out briskly, took the tablet from his workstation, opened the album, flipped through it again and again, and found a picture to show them. It was a strange thing welded together with silver metal sheets. The whole thing was in the shape of a spiral, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, half a person's height, and very similar to the outer contour of the partner's brand logo. There was a light source in the photo, and the light hit the metal sheets in different directions, reflecting shimmering light.

When Nathan saw it, his eyes lit up.

"Are there any other photos or videos? Send them to me and I'll take a look." Nathan said.

Austin was swiping on his tablet, and without looking up, he said, "Okay, let WeChat approve it and I'll send it to you."

Nathan: "...Okay."

Austin happily sent Nathan a bunch of puppy emojis. Everyone else went back to work, leaving only the two of them in the conference room. Nathan clicked on the pictures and videos that Austin had sent him, and he liked it more and more. He could already imagine what this metal thing would look like hanging in the exhibition hall.

The only headache now is time.

"The event will be at the beginning of next month." Nathan said.

Austin didn't think twice and said, "No problem."

Nathan was shocked by his straightforwardness and frowned, saying, "This is no joke. If we decide to replace it, we must not open the skylight. It's not just a matter of money. The preliminary work is very hard. Aria stayed up all night to work on the plan. If you mess it up, she will be the first to kill you."

"I'm not kidding," Austin said, "We can make some changes based on the original."

Nathan looked him in the eye and said, "Okay, then you can come up with a plan for me today, and I'll negotiate if it's okay."

Austin agreed, picked up the tablet and ran out, took two steps out and turned back, saying seriously: "WeChat can't be deleted."

"Boring." Nathan laughed and waved at him to leave quickly.

For the next half day, Austin did not move except to go to the bathroom, and no one bothered him. During the tea break, Nathan brought him a cup of matcha korra, but he did not eat it until the end of the get off work day, and just left it there, concentrating like a man possessed.

Aria, who had been drowsy all day, turned off her computer on time and prepared to leave work. She had already walked a few steps when she turned back to look at Austin who was immersed in his work and asked Rita in shock: "Does our company pay interns very high?"

Rita asked, "Aren't you going to get off work? Come on, take this..."

"Go, bye!"

Rita turned to look at Nathan who had not yet left work and asked jokingly: "Does our company offer you a high salary?"

Nathan asked: "Aren't you going to get off work? Come..."

Rita zipped up her mouth and ran away. Soon, almost everyone in the office had run away, and it was very quiet, with only the white noise of the computer running. Austin was drawing, and the sound of the pen poking on the screen was very regular. Suddenly, he stood up.

Nathan asked: "Is it done?"

Austin ate the koluli in one gulp, stuffing his mouth full, and said hurriedly and vaguely: "I have to go back to walk the dog! I'll do it after I walk, and I'll send it to you before twelve o'clock."

Nathan originally wanted to treat him to a meal, of course, out of concern for a hard-working intern, and without any other unreasonable thoughts. Nathan knew how important it was for dog owners to walk their dogs, and how much Border Collies needed to walk, so he didn't mention the meal, and quickly packed up and prepared to leave.

Austin was so smart that he immediately realized what Nathan meant and hurriedly said, "Can we have dinner together? It's next to that cafe, close to your home, and you can bring your dog." Before Nathan could react to how he guessed that he wanted to treat him to dinner, which cafe it was, or why Austin knew where his home was, Austin unilaterally agreed with him and ran away like his B*tt was in trouble.

In less than five minutes, Austin sent a restaurant link. As soon as Nathan saw the address, he knew which cafe he was talking about. The profile picture on his dating app was taken at the entrance of that cafe, and it also showed Austin walking his dog. So how did Austin know that the place was close to his home?

I can't figure it out.

Nathan thought about it while packing his things, and walked home slowly. He changed into comfortable home clothes, put his phone and keys in his pocket, and walked slowly for five minutes in the evening breeze towards the restaurant they had arranged to meet. From a distance, he saw Austin sitting in front of the door. His blond hair was particularly eye-catching, and his Border Collie was also sitting obediently, panting with its tongue out.

When I got closer, I found that Austin was also so hot that he almost stuck out his tongue and gasped for breath.

"Did you come here running?" Nathan teased.

Unexpectedly, Austin nodded and said, "It's only five kilometers, use up its energy."

Nathan thought to himself, the Border Collie’s owner is really amazing.
