Mrs. He.
When Lin Zhixing faced this unfamiliar name for the first time, he took a second to realize that he was being called.
"Don't call me that. I'm not used to it." Lin Zhixing's eyes fell on the jewels in the box. "Are these jewels expensive?"
"It's expensive! Each of these gems is worth a fortune individually, let alone as a set!"
The makeup artist placed her hand over the accessories, wanting to pick up one of them.
After choosing for a long time without any success, she simply turned to Lin Zhixing and asked, "He... Miss Lin, these three sets all match your clothes very well. Which one do you like best?"
Lin Zhixing has pierced ears, but as a doctor, he is not allowed to wear any jewelry during work hours.
Given her financial situation, she had almost no experience in choosing and matching jewelry.
As for the sets of jewelry in the box, when she heard the makeup artist say they were priceless, she didn't want to choose any of them.
Considering his current status, he still asked, "How about... you help me choose a cheap one?"
"Hmm?" The makeup artist glanced at Lin Zhixing and nodded hurriedly, "Then choose pearl jewelry. Pearls are the most suitable pairing with cheongsams."
"good."
Lin Zhixing agreed.
The makeup artist took out several sets of pearl jewelry from the box and helped Lin Zhixing match them.
Finally, I chose to wear a set of accessories.
The pearls in this set of accessories are not very large in size, but each one is of uniform size and has a very good glossiness, which can just encircle the stand-up collar of the cheongsam.
The matching earrings are not exaggerated, with only a simple pearl pendant a few millimeters below the earlobe.
On Lin Zhixing's wrist, the makeup artist originally wanted to put a jade bracelet on her.
Unfortunately, the woman's wrist was too thin, and the jade bracelets she was given were not quite suitable.
When the makeup artist was holding a watch and trying to help Lin Zhixing try it on...
There was a sound of the electronic lock unlocking at the door.
He Yanchen opened the door and came in.
It was sunset.
The setting sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Lin Zhixing, who had finished styling the whole outfit, was standing next to the sofa. When he heard footsteps, he looked over.
The warm golden afterglow was like a paintbrush, moving down the woman's petite face, winding to her long neck, slender waist, and finally ending at the end of her straight white calves.
The whole picture looks like a painting.
She is so beautiful standing in the painting that people can't take their eyes off her.
The moment He Yanchen saw the woman, he felt a trace of regret in his heart.
He regretted asking her to accompany him to He Mingyu's engagement party.
A woman is as perfect as a flawless jade, so naturally many people will be attracted to her.
Afraid that someone else would covet her, afraid that someone would take her away from him.
Lin Zhixing didn't know what He Yanchen was thinking.
She felt a little uneasy as she watched the man scrutinize her. She asked cautiously, "Mr. He, is this cheongsam of mine... not fitting well?"
"You are very beautiful and the dress suits you very well."
Only then did He Yanchen suppress his inner struggle and step forward.
The makeup artist nearby quickly handed over the antique watch in her hand and explained, "Mr. He, the whole look is almost done. Only the bracelet is left. The jade bracelets in this box are not the right size for Miss Lin. I was planning to let Miss Lin try this watch."
He Yanchen first asked Lin Zhixing, "Do you like this watch? If not, I'll have my assistant pick out a few more suitable bracelets and send them to the banquet hall. You can choose from there."
"No, just the watch. This watch is pretty nice."
Lin Zhixing didn't know much about watches, and couldn't see what was so special about the watch in front of him.
The workmanship is very fine, but the style looks old.
It shouldn’t be as expensive as those bracelets, right?
In her opinion, these jade bracelets are very valuable. If they are accidentally bumped, or fall off or break, she may have to work for the next ten years for this jade bracelet.
"Okay, I'll help you put it on."
He Yanchen took the watch from the makeup artist and put it on Lin Zhixing himself.
The makeup artist stood by and watched. After confirming that the watch was put on, he said, "Mr. He, Mrs. He's entire look is complete. If there is nothing you are dissatisfied with, then I will leave first."
He Yanchen looked at Lin Zhixing.
The makeup artist left only after Lin Zhixing expressed his satisfaction.
He Yanchen looked at the somewhat embarrassed woman and suggested, "Would you mind helping me choose an outfit to go with your cheongsam?"
"Okay, sure."
Lin Zhixing quickly agreed.
This proposal was still a bit unexpected to her.
Generally speaking, when a man and a woman attend an event together, the woman's clothes match the man's clothes, and it is rarely the other way around.
Lin Zhixing followed Lin Zhixing to the cloakroom of this house.
The entire cloakroom is very large and can be seen to be divided into two areas.
He Yanchen's clothes only occupied half of the space, and the other half was almost empty.
He Yanchen said, "I'll have the nanny put your clothes and accessories over there."
"Are you going to keep these ornaments?"
Lin Zhixing was a little surprised.
She thought these accessories were rented or borrowed temporarily to match her cheongsam!
"I asked Ms. Zhang's daughter to help choose it for you. If there are any activities like this in the future, you must participate."
He Yanchen said in a nonchalant tone.
It was as if those were not jewelry worth millions or tens of millions, but glass worth tens of dollars.
"I...I can't accept it. I probably won't have the chance to participate in such activities in the future."
Lin Zhixing was completely confused about what He Yanchen meant. Thinking of a possibility, he said without even thinking, "If you're worried that I'll cause trouble at the engagement party, I won't."
He Yanchen frowned slightly: "Do you remember what I said?"
Lin Zhixing, "What?"
"I can help you remedy most of the things you regret." He Yanchen repeated every word and continued, "This includes your regret for rejecting Xiaoyu's proposal to get back together."
"I won't get back together. I'm sorry, I just..." Lin Zhixing finally regained his composure and explained, "Maybe these are just ordinary gifts for people of your status, but for an ordinary person like me, they are too precious. I can't accept them."
He Yanchen really wanted to tell her.
He examined these pieces of jewelry one by one after Zhang Caihua's daughter had selected many.
This was the first time he personally chose a gift for a member of the opposite sex other than his family.
When choosing, I would worry whether she would like it or not.
Unexpectedly, in the end Lin Zhixing would think that these were just ordinary gifts in his eyes.
Unfortunately, I couldn't say that, so I had to change the subject. "Please help me choose some clothes. There might be traffic at this time."
"good."
Lin Zhixing quickly chose a dark-colored suit with dark patterns and a shirt for the man, and finally matched it with a tie that was somewhat similar in color to her cheongsam.
She waited at the door for the man to change his clothes.
After about a few minutes, He Yanchen walked out of the cloakroom with the tie she had just chosen in his hand.
The man handed the tie to her and asked, "Can you help me tie it?"
