Chapter 354: No Need to Report to You
Translator: _Min_ |
Meng Zhi was taken aback for a moment before responding softly, “Hello, my name is Meng Zhi, Daidai’s third brother. And you are?”
Shi Nuan, head bowed and face flushed, replied softly, “Hello, I’m Shi Nuan, Daidai’s best friend.”
Meng Zhi, observing Shi Nuan’s demeanor, couldn’t help but say, “You look familiar. I think I’ve seen you before.”
Shi Nuan nodded, “Yes, I used to hang out with Daidai a lot.”
Exchanging some more words, the two soon began to converse.
Gu Dai, feeling helpless, shook her head. Perhaps this was the sweet scent of love, she thought. Seeing Shi Nuan’s shy yet happy expression made her happy too.
The fashion show was about to begin.
Gu Dai headed to her pre-booked seat, only to find Song Ling unexpectedly seated next to her.
Frowning slightly, she asked, “Why are you here?”
Song Ling, recalling the scenes of Gu Dai laughing with several men and contrasting them with her cold attitude towards him, felt very annoyed.
He gave Gu Dai a cold look, then dismissively said, “The show is open to the public. I came because I wanted to.”
Hearing his boss’s words, Zhao Xuan’s eyebrows twitched. He quickly interjected with a smile, “President Song specially came to support the show after knowing you organized it.”
Song Ling snorted, retorting, “I didn’t know. If I had known it was Gu Dai’s show, I wouldn’t have come!”
Zhao Xuan opened his mouth to speak but ended up saying nothing, simply closing it.
The host announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, our first fashion show themed on Suzhou embroidery is about to start. Let’s focus our attention and begin this visual feast!”
The audience burst into enthusiastic applause.
Gu Dai lost interest in arguing with Song Ling. She turned her attention fully to the stage.
The first models, known internationally, wore clothes made of Suzhou embroidery.
Although the audience expected a Suzhou embroidery-themed show, they were still momentarily stunned and impressed upon seeing the designs, believing Suzhou embroidery had great potential. Yet, some held different opinions.
Unaffected by the crowd’s comments, Gu Dai remained focused, eagerly awaiting Su Ting and Fu Nan’s appearances.
Fu Nan appeared first.
Feeling a moment of nervousness upon seeing the crowd, especially when his eyes met Gu Dai’s, he exhaled softly and reminded himself to behave as he did during practice. With the rhythm of the music, he confidently walked onto the stage.
Gu Dai smiled satisfactorily, nodding in approval.
Song Ling’s gaze remained fixed on Gu Dai, his mood darkening upon seeing her expression.
Who was this model?
He had been watching Gu Dai all along. Why didn’t he know about this new love interest of hers?
After regaining her memory, Gu Dai shone with charm. Song Ling understood why people were attracted to her, but the speed of her new relationships was too fast. He had barely looked away, and another man had appeared!
Initially, when Song Ling took over the Song Corporation, he handled the chaos with composure, everything under his control.
However, facing Gu Dai post-memory recovery, he felt lost, unsure how to win her back.
Gu Dai, oblivious to Song Ling’s conflicted gaze, remained intently focused on the stage, remembering each designer’s style to plan their future directions.
Su Ting was the finale.
Dressed in a black suit embroidered with a small red rose, he exuded a seasoned presence and strong aura, drawing everyone’s attention.
Many came specifically for Su Ting, exclaiming in awe. Gu Dai sat up straighter, her eyes blazing as she watched the stage.
Watching the dazzling Su Ting on stage, Gu Dai’s heart swelled with pride, her lips curling into a smile.
Song Ling found Gu Dai’s smile irritating.
Su Ting was just a model, a mere mannequin for displaying clothes. What was so impressive?
As Gu Dai started to leave, Song Ling reached out to grab her, questioning, “Where are you going?”
Gu Dai pursed her lips in annoyance, lifting her arm to shake off Song Ling’s grasp, coldly saying, “Where I go isn’t something I need to report to President Song, is it?”
Watching Gu Dai walk away, Song Ling lowered his eyes and chuckled coldly.
Without Gu Dai’s confirmation, he knew anyway.. She must be going to meet those men again!
