Chapter 295: On and Off the Show
"This is a little different from our travel plan." Jiang Yunhui felt very guilty. He ran so far, but still had to worry and think hard.
"At least your part hasn't changed," Xiang Nuan said with a smile, "As for my part, at least I've changed from wandering aimlessly alone to an organized and planned itinerary."
That's why she can describe her work so poetically.
"I don't want you to be too tired." The main purpose of his trip was indeed to discuss the show with Lucas. But he also really wanted Xiang Nuan to come out and relax.
"It's tiring to do nothing," Xiang Nuan dispelled his concerns, "and I also have my own little thoughts."
"oh?"
"Well... keep it a secret." She smiled sweetly and turned to look at the magazine Elena gave her.
A feeling of fullness and warmth spread in Jiang Yunhui's chest. He couldn't find a suitable word to describe it, but vaguely remembered a poem he had read when he was young: If I love you, I will never be a climbing trumpet creeper, using your tall branches to show off myself... This should be the most appropriate portrayal of Xiang Nuan.
He rubbed Xiang Nuan's hair with peace of mind, and returned to his desk to work. What she wanted was not pampering and protection, but a big tree that could grow with her towards the sun and stand side by side.
…
It was Xiang Nuan's first time to watch a live show. The bright stars, exquisite costumes, and hot atmosphere completely overturned her preconceived impressions from TV and magazines.
Elena explained to her the origin of each element symbol one by one, but she was not satisfied with the fashion itself. She asked in detail about the fit with the model and the response to the environment.
"You're a lunatic," Elena whispered in her ear, "This is the first time I've seen someone watch a show in 720-degree surround."
How can we just watch the scene? Xiang Nuan even wants to ask about its history, its culture, and even the designer's family background.
After the big show, Elena was completely impressed by Xiang Nuan.
"Have you ever considered entering the fashion industry?" she asked eagerly.
"Consider it."
"Then consider me?"
"Hmm..." Xiang Nuan held her chin up and pretended to be in deep thought, "I'll think about it."
Elena burst into laughter. She loved to laugh so much, and was so good at laughing. Every time she laughed, she was like a passionate rose, making the whole world hot.
"It's really you?!"
A graceful girl wearing a Chanel-style haute couture dress appeared in front of Xiang Nuan. Xiang Nuan was stunned for a moment before recognizing the person in front of her.
"Are you here to see the show? Why didn't I see you?" It was the first time she saw Liu Yunshan in a gorgeous dress, and she didn't react for a moment.
"Tsk, your eyes are on the top of your head." Liu Yunshan tapped her forehead. The commercial flattery in the world of Vanity Fair was nothing compared to the intimacy and humor of good friends.
"You're a top star, how can you see it if it's not on top of your head?" Xiang Nuan pouted coquettishly and pulled her around in a circle: "So beautiful!"
"Get lost!"
Xiang Nuan deliberately widened her eyes, as if she was shocked by the outrageous words of a big star. But even though she was joking, she immediately introduced them.
"This is Elena, a designer of her own brand. She is very interested in traditional Chinese style and has done a lot of research on the deep integration of Chinese and French styles." Xiang Nuan looked at Liu Yunshan and raised her eyebrows, and continued, "Miss Liu is now a leading actress in the domestic film and television industry. She is also the spokesperson for two top women's clothing brands. Her fashion sense is avant-garde and unique."
Xiang Nuan's introduction was like an award speech, and both of them were shocked by her serious look. Liu Yunshan even nudged her secretly, "Do you have to be so formal?"
"All the celebrities and models in the venue can't overshadow the elegance here. Why didn't you contact me when you came to see the show?"
Another important guest appeared. Yuan Zhen wore a black retro velvet dress, changing her previous hot image to an elegant palace style.
Xiang Nuan sighed from the bottom of her heart. How could she have forgotten this? Yuan Zhen did say he was coming to watch the show.
"Hello again, Miss Yuan."
Liu Yunshan couldn't help but look at Xiang Nuan's politeness. But what surprised her even more was her sloppy introduction.
"This is Yiliana and Liu Yunshan, and this is Yuan Zhen, who just returned to China to develop his career."
Everyone nodded to each other, it was just like an old friend.
"Come on, I'll take you to meet the designer of this show, Ellie." Elena patted Xiang Nuan and rescued her from this embarrassing situation.
"When are you leaving?" Xiang Nuan asked Liu Yunshan.
"the day after tomorrow."
She made a gesture to make a phone call and was pulled away by Elena. She didn't even have time to say goodbye to Yuanzhen, and could only nod hastily.
"Mrs. Jiang is really a famous person." Yuan Zhen sighed as he looked at her back.
Liu Yunshan had a vague impression of Yuan Zhen and did not intend to have a deep conversation with her. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Yuan Zhen continue to say: "I remember that when I last saw her, she was still a shy and timid person. Maybe the appearance reflects the heart? She looked very quiet at that time, but now she is so free and easy."
What do you want to say? Liu Yunshan felt something strange. Now she remembered that it seemed that there was a rumor that she had met Xiang Nuan a long time ago, and she said something very different from what she said now. But it didn't cause any waves.
When Liu Yunshan first heard about it, she didn't take it seriously. After all, Xiang Nuan was surrounded by controversy and speculation when she first appeared. At that time, many people, including her, were digging up dirt on her with a microscope, but there was no solid evidence, and she personally sent Shen Sumei to jail. When someone brought this up again, even the rumor maker personally came out to refute it.
Liu Yunshan was still waiting for the next words, but Yuan Zhen stopped at that. Ha, playing hard to get? She keenly smelled the danger.
"This guy loves to act innocent." She complained half dotingly and half angrily, with an added hint of bragging.
After she finished speaking, she nodded slightly and followed the staff. Now it was Yuan Zhen's turn to be surprised. It seemed that their relationship was not ordinary.
Xiang Nuan was chatting with Ai Li in the distance, taking in the situation here. She really couldn't figure out this Yuan Zhen. If she really wanted Jiang Yunhui to help, shouldn't she take the initiative to show her goodwill? Why did she always feel like she was taking the opportunity to get close to him and spy on him? Was she trying to give others the impression that they were old friends? Although all roads lead to Rome, she really chose a long and secluded mountain road.
"Does Designer Xiang also have his own studio?" Ai Li's question brought Xiang Nuan back.
"No, it's just a hobby. I can't compare to people like you who have turned their passion into a career."
There were so many people around Ai Li, and they were all eager to express their love for the show and the new designs. Xiang Nuan exchanged a few simple greetings and then walked out of the venue with Elena.
Many photographers surrounded the crowd and took pictures frantically. Xiang Nuan's Asian face and unignorable temperament and appearance made her the focus of all the cameras.
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "Xiang Nuan, Mrs. Jiang!" They had come to follow their favorite stars, and when they saw Xiang Nuan, they all cheered.
"It's Jiang Yunhui, the wife of the best actor." A photographer's words seemed to light a fuse. All the cameras turned at once, and the narrow passage at the exit became Xiang Nuan's catwalk.
