Having dealt with Miss Zhao, who caused all the trouble, Xue Qiandai received a message from Huo Yunchao.
"Dai Dai, I have a lot of meetings scheduled with TC Group these past few days. This afternoon and the next two days of the weekend are all for negotiations, so I can't be with you. Have a great weekend in advance!"
Xue Qiandai smiled slightly, feeling disappointed that she wouldn't be able to see the beauty over the weekend, although they had indeed been seeing each other more frequently lately, almost like they were in the throes of new love; she was happy that Huo Meiren had sent her a message, just like a good man reporting to his girlfriend.
She replied: "TC Group has plenty of money, let's rip them off! I also have plans for the weekend, beautiful, have a great weekend."
She stared at her phone screen, at Huo Meiren's profile picture. The other person seemed to be typing, but no one had sent a single message for a long time.
Just then, another number called in; it was Rong Xiao.
"Consort Dai? I'm here!" Even through the screen, Xue Qiandai could feel Rong Xiao's enthusiasm. "Are you free this weekend? How about a rehearsal?"
Since I can't get a date with Huo Meiren anyway, what difference does it make who I spend my time with?
"Okay, bring your fashionable outfit this weekend so I can familiarize myself with it."
Upon hearing the word "fashionable battle robe," Jian Yan leaned closer, straining to listen.
"Consort Dai, I can't wait to see you wear it. Your perfect figure combined with my genius idea, hehehe, I'll send it over tonight."
Beep beep beep...
Rong Xiao hung up the phone first.
Xue Qiandai pinched her brow, thinking, "What a brainless idiot." Then she counted, "One, two, three!"
The three words had barely left his lips when Rong Xiao called again, "Daifei, could you share the address of your villa?"
Then he hung up again.
Jian Yan was momentarily confused. "Your classmate is really weird. He always hangs up on you first."
Xue Qiandai pointed to her temple. "Him? Something's not quite right here. But as he says, 'No madness, no life.' What sane brain can produce the most outstanding designs?"
That seems to make sense.
In the afternoon, Xue Qiandai and Jian Yan delivered afternoon tea to Chao Xun, along with some other miscellaneous orders. They then went back to Xianghu Bay together at 7:30.
At 8 p.m., a motorhome drove into the villa community.
Jian Yan had assumed that a lingerie show would involve small pieces of lingerie. She never expected that Rong Xiao's so-called lingerie would be hanging on mannequins, complete with capes, wings, and heavy-duty jewelry—the kind that's so dazzling it'll blind you.
However, what dazzled even more than these battle robes was Rong Xiao, especially the row of diamond studs on his ears. And this man was just too devilishly handsome.
"This man is so handsome, even more handsome than a woman," Jian Yan whispered.
Xue Qiandai replied directly, "He's not a man."
Jian Yan said "Oh," understanding perfectly. What a pity, it's for all the young ladies in the world.
Three burly men carried several models inside.
"Be careful, don't snag my cloak."
"Hey, this is all real silk, it's very easy for it to snag."
"My wings, my wings!"
"Consort Dai, your battle robe has arrived! Where should I put it?"
"Living room, this way." Xue Qiandai directed the arrangement, and three mannequins were lined up in the living room. Several staff members greeted Rong Xiao, "Alright, you can all go back now."
After the staff left, Rong Xiao fawned over Xue Qiandai, "How was it, Consort Dai? Are you satisfied?"
Xue Qiandai brushed her wings, touched her cloak, and said with a look of disgust, "So, in the end, it still comes down to whose model has the most voluptuous breasts, the slimmest waist, and the longest legs?"
Rong Xiao blinked his big eyes, his lips red and teeth white, and he was extremely embarrassed. "Consort Dai, is this how you comment on my design? I've stayed up many nights in a row. Look at my bright eyes, I even have dark circles under my eyes."
She was so beautiful that Jian Yan couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for her.
"Jane, what do you think?" Xue Qiandai did not answer Rong Xiao directly, but instead sought Jane Yan's opinion.
Rong Xiao didn't recognize Jian Yan and just thought that this woman, who was at most not ugly, had no right to comment on his great work!
“I think,” Jian Yan said earnestly and cautiously, “if it’s designed like this, what’s the difference between it and Victoria’s Secret?”
"What do you know, you little brat?" Rong Xiao was practically about to explode! It's like showing off your skills in front of Guan Yu, or selling your axe in front of Lu Ban!
Xue Qiandai pulled Jian Yan aside and solemnly introduced her, "Rongrong, this is my partner, roommate, and best friend, Jian Yan. You can call her Jian, but you can't call her 'little girl'."
Rong Xiao was furious. Consort Dai didn't love him anymore. Damn it, it seemed Consort Dai had never loved him at all!
"Rongrong, the ESMOD graduation exam is about attitude and unique dedication. Your designs have too high requirements for the models, lacking universality, which means they lack creativity."
Jian Yan agreed wholeheartedly, adding, "If you want future women to feel confident and sexy regardless of their body shape, then handsome guy, you've already won!"
Therefore, Xue Qiandai has a keen eye; she foresaw the future trends in lingerie development.
Rong Xiao frowned, seemingly finding it interesting. This was probably the academy's original intention in choosing this topic. After all, Consort Dai wasn't entirely useless.
“Consort Dai, but…” Rong Xiao twirled his finger, looking innocent and naive, “The fashion show is on Wednesday, and I don’t have time to design anything else. Besides, I only want you to wear my designs. You don’t know, I felt like I was on a mountaintop, it was so dreamy!”
Xue Qiandai scratched her head and asked, "When you were taking lingerie classes, did you work with plus sizes?"
"Yes, but those are just for show, and they don't look good." He didn't want that kind of rubbish to appear on his show.
Xue Qiandai immediately made a decision, "Rongrong, if you want to surprise everyone at the graduation show and win the praise of those demanding judges, then use models with different body types. Of course, as a representative of diversity, I will also participate. If you want to blend in with the crowd and make lingerie a sexy niche representative like everyone else, then it's up to you."
I'm so conflicted.
Rong Xiao hugged the winged one on the mannequin, rubbed his face against it, and almost cried, "Daifei, I'll listen to you, but this one is my favorite. You have to wear it and walk around, okay? Please."
Jian Yan immediately noticed the strappy high heels that were paired with the lingerie; they must have been at least 15 centimeters high. She rubbed her forehead and said, "Dai Dai, are you sure you can fit into these pretentious little high heels?"
It's true, only your feet know whether a shoe is comfortable or not.
"We'll give it a try. It's only a few minutes anyway, we just need to hang in there."
Rong Xiao suddenly stepped forward and hugged Xue Qiandai, nuzzling her and taking advantage of her. "Consort Dai, I knew you loved me the most. I love you so much too. You don't need to look for your Mr. Huo anymore. You only need me!"
Xue Qiandai: "..."
What to do if you encounter a man who is always eyeing your beauty and trying to steal you away?
He turned her around and Jian Yan asked softly, "Didn't you say it wasn't a man?"
Xue Qiandai: "My sister straightened me out."
