“Shao Dong, where are you looking at?” Han Yuyan called out to him reproachfully.
“Oh, nowhere in particular!” He quickly turned to regard her gown. There was no sign of awe or amazement in his eyes when he praised, “Yuyan, you look so good in this dress!”
She did not detect the insincerity in his compliment and, instead, proudly posed in front of the mirror upon hearing him.
Qin Zhou looked at this pair of miserable couple and exchanged a cold snort with Gu Xingze.
“Hmph. The wife just died, yet he’s already changed a few new partners. Rich men can be so heartless. Meng Xialan probably did not die in peace.”
Shao Dong was married when Han Yuyan stepped between the husband and wife as the third party. This extra-marital affair had been kept under wraps.
Shao Dong’s wife was in a car accident and passed away not too long ago. This was only when Han Yuyan was able to be his partner officially.
“Don’t poke your nose in other people’s business.”
Gu Xingze concentrated on picking a suitable gown for Yun Shishi. His eyes fell on a glamorous and elegant red gown.
This evening gown was personally designed and sewn by the world renowned designer, Helen Swift. It was in noble red. The top came with a light shoulder yarn, which followed a small, fluffy skirt flowing down from the waist. The silky gown was exquisite and had all the curves in the right places.
Beautiful. It was really beautiful.
Gu Xingze always had a high aesthetic standard and a strong fashion sense.
“I want this,” he instructed succinctly.
Alan walked over to look at his choice and objected discreetly, “Xingze, this gown is our imperial jewel.”
Does he really want this unknown lady to wear it? That would be wasteful.
Besides, the designer said before that not every Asian woman could flaunt the dress.
He concluded that Yun Shishi would be too frail to look good in it.
Even if the gown was suitable for her, other famous ladies would make a fuss about her wearing it.
The dress had yet to be worn by any ladies, after all. Many famous socialites and actresses wanted to try it on but were refused.
Han Yuyan heard their conversation and came over to have a look. She blushed slightly at the sight of Gu Xingze.
No woman in the industry could withstand his charm, not even a first-rate actress like her. She had loved him deeply before. Alas, he was not interested.
She was secretly in love with him for four years; that went to show how much feelings she had had for him.
She elegantly moved over in her dress, saw his gaze on that red gown, and gently reminded, “Xingze, the director told me that this is EMPRESS’s imperial jewel and isn’t just for anyone to wear. I was also interested in this piece earlier, but I wasn’t fit for it.”
She was trying to hint that no woman would qualify if she could not.
Gu Xingze completely ignored her existence, as if she were air, and simply said to Alan, “I want this. Unlock the closet.”
She felt exasperated when he totally disregarded her.
She heard Shao Dong gave a slight disapproving cough from behind and caught herself in time. She awkwardly turned toward her partner.
“Xingzhe, this dress...”
Gu Xingze did not want to hear any more explanations. “The dress is designed to complement a beauty. Alan, don’t you trust my taste?”
Alan could not refuse further. He had his assistant open the glass closet, take out the gown, and bring it over to Yun Shishi in the changing room.
Qin Zhou was full of anticipation. He had eyed this piece as well and wondered how stunning Yun Shishi would look in it.
