Chapter 233: Auntie
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
According to the current situation, there must be someone behind Shi Jing, but Shi Man had no idea who could help at this time.
The next day, after work, Yi Zheng came to the company to pick her up. He even brought a gown that he had personally prepared.
After getting into the car, Yi Zheng placed the box containing the gown on her lap as if he was presenting a treasure. “I’ll bring you to the fitting room to change into it later. It will definitely suit you.”
“About Shi Jing…” Shi Man refused to give up and wanted to continue asking.
Yi Zheng suddenly raised his index finger to block her lips. “Shh, I brought you out to play today. Let’s not talk about those troublesome things.”
Shi Man frowned and was not at ease. Yi Zheng took her worry seriously and smiled. “I’ll tell you after it’s over.”
Shi Man suddenly looked up at him and met the man’s black eyes. At this moment, there was a trace of mischief in his eyes. This was to prevent her from leaving halfway.
She didn’t know if this man was really smart or if he had completely understood her style of doing things. Why had she been at a disadvantage in the recent open and covert battles?
Yi Zheng obviously wouldn’t tell her the answer to this question. He leisurely leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest. His hand on his lap slowly tapped the rhythm of the music.
When they arrived at the guild hall, Tang Zhc got out of the car and opened the door for Yi Zheng. “Master, do you need me to go in with you?”
“No need. Manman is here.” He turned his head and smiled at Shi Man in the car. He took the initiative to reach out his gentlemanly hand and invite her out of the car with a smile.
Shi Man hesitated for a moment, but she still gently placed her hand in his and got out of the car expressionlessly. “Let’s bring Tang Zhc in. I don’t understand the situation here.”
“Yes, I know you don’t understand.” He deliberately teased and held back his laughter under Shi Man’s glare. He said seriously, “Alright, you have me. Who doesn’t know that you’re my fiancee now?”
Shi Man rolled her eyes at him speechlessly and let him bring her to the changing room.
The gown in the box was custom-made by Yi Zheng at the last minute yesterday, but the workmanship and design did not show any signs of rushed work. It could be seen that Yi Zheng had spent a lot of money on this gown to let the designer reach such a high completion rate in a short period of time.
The dress was black and purple in color. There was a silver chain at the waist, and the hem of the dress had been irregularly designed. Although the dress was short, there were many linings inside. There was no need to worry about being exposed.
Shi Man really liked the design style of this dress. After putting it on, she looked at herself in the mirror for a while before lifting the curtain and walking out of the cubicle.
Outside, noblewomen were gathered in twos and threes, discussing the most popular bag style. Almost everyone was holding an expensive limited edition luxury handbag. Only Shi Man’s hand was empty, looking a little out of place.
However, it was not that Shi Man did not bring them because she could not afford them. She just did not have the habit of bringing these things. Compared to carrying an extra bag, she preferred to buy clothes with bigger pockets.
The noblewoman wearing lipstick in front of the makeup mirror occasionally turned her head to talk to the person beside her. She saw Shi Man in a black and purple dress which made her skin look fair and delicate. Her face and figure were also outstanding. Looking at the entire changing room, no one was more eye-catching than her.
The few of them looked at each other and saw confusion in each other’s eyes. No one knew who this unfamiliar girl was, which meant that her status might not be high at all. Perhaps she was a wild prostitute that some man had taken a fancy to and brought to see the world.
The noblewoman put down her lipstick and walked over with a smile. She blocked Shi Man’s path. “Little girl, did you come to the wrong place? This is not a place you can enter casually.”
Shi Man glanced at her and nodded in agreement. “Indeed, this is where the aunties touch up their makeup. I really shouldn’t come.”
“You dare to call me Auntie?” Women like them hated their true age the most. Who didn’t want to be young and beautiful in front of others forever?
Now that she was called Auntie by the little girl, she immediately felt embarrassed. Her teasing thoughts turned into deep jealousy. “Damn girl, I think you really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you think you can be compared to us just because you’ve hooked up with a man? Let me tell you, when you were fawning over men in bed, I was already a rich wife that no one in this circle dared to provoke!”
“Aiyo, the little girl is really blind! This is Madam Chen, the best friend of the organizer of our banquet… Mrs. Lin! If you provoke her, you’ll be kicked out of the banquet later!” The person who chimed in was Mrs. Zhuo, who had always wanted to build a good relationship with Mrs. Chen.
At this moment, she was the first to start. Many people in the changing room began to appear like bamboo shoots after a rainstorm. They pointed their spears at Shi Man and insisted that she apologize to Mrs. Chen. Otherwise, they would look like they were going to tear her dress apart on the spot..
