Chapter 139 Trying on, Satisfied
It was three days later that Lin Jianyan heard the news about Chen Jia's illness. He only heard about it from one ear and thought it seemed that he was angry and had a cerebral infarction or something. Anyway, he was half paralyzed.
Lin Jianyan just felt that evil deeds had indeed been punished, so he sighed and stopped paying attention to it.
He is very busy now and has no time to think about other people. It is almost the end of April and after half a month the clothes ordered by the three ladies are almost finished. They can come and try on the clothes after finishing the work.
His certificate was also issued and he placed it in his office. He would look at it every day and wipe it carefully before leaving. He would feel extremely happy whenever he saw it.
Gu Min has also been studying hard during this period and has made rapid progress. When she has nothing to do, she goes upstairs to watch the embroiderers embroidering and has learned a lot from them. I heard that she can now embroider a small flower independently.
Everything is going smoothly and steadily, busy and fulfilling.
Three days later, Mrs. Wang's dress was finished first. When she called her, she could clearly hear her surprise on the other end.
The next day, she came early. Her makeup was as exquisite as last time, but the difference was that she was holding the arm of a middle-aged man. The man was tall and straight, and although the years had left traces on his face, he exuded a calm and wise aura. He must be her husband.
Li Lu and Wu Tong opened the door, welcomed them in warmly, led them into the room they had stayed in last time, and poured them a cup of tea.
"Wait a moment, both of you. I'll go get our boss."
Seeing Mrs. Wang and Mr. Wang nodded, Li Lu and Wu Tong went out.
Mrs. Wang sat on the sofa, smelling the sweet scent in the air, and her whole body relaxed. She leaned lightly against the sofa, looking at her husband beside her, with a comfortable smile on his face, with a secret look of boasting.
"How is it? Am I right? The environment and fragrance here are really comfortable. Last time I fell asleep without realizing it, and my headache was much better when I got home."
Mr. Wang looked around and nodded with a smile. This place really gave people a very comfortable feeling. The smell in the air was fresh and fragrant with a bitter taste but not pungent. After smelling it for a while, he felt very comfortable.
"No wonder you couldn't stop thinking about it after you got home. I was wondering what kind of clothes it was, but you were still thinking about it so much before you even saw what it looked like."
Mrs. Wang patted him in a stern voice, "Of course the clothes are ready. I believe in Mr. Lin's craftsmanship. Didn't you see the clothes that Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Li wore last time? They were designed by Mr. Lin."
"It is said that Mr. Lin's clothes are hard to come by now. The queue is full. I must act quickly, otherwise I don't know when it will be my turn."
Mr. Wang shook his head helplessly, "You."
It was at this moment that Lin Jianyan knocked on the door.
Mrs. Wang straightened her clothes, sat up straight, and said with a hint of excitement in her voice: "Please come in." Mr. Wang looked at her with a smile.
The door was gently pushed open, and Lin Jianyan's slender figure appeared at the door. "Mrs. Wang, Mr. Wang, sorry for waiting." Lin Jianyan walked into the room with steady steps. His voice was soft and gentle, which made people feel good about him unconsciously.
Gu Min followed him, while Li Lu and Wu Tong pushed a mannequin behind him, wearing an exquisite cheongsam. The cheongsam was like a flowing scroll, emitting a charming glow under the lights.
Mr. Wang exchanged a few pleasantries with Lin Jianyan, but Mrs. Wang was so focused on her clothes that she didn't even hear what Mr. Wang said to her.
It was not until Mr. Wang pushed her twice that she came to her senses. Mr. Wang said helplessly: "Wife, Mr. Lin is talking to you."
Mrs. Wang suddenly realized her own gaffe. Her face turned slightly red. She looked at Lin Jianyan a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin. I was so engrossed in watching it just now. What did you say just now?"
Lin Jianyan had a faint smile on her lips, and her eyes showed understanding and tolerance, "I understand. It seems that Mrs. Wang likes this dress very much. Then I feel relieved."
Mrs. Wang looked at it and gently stroked the surface of the cheongsam with her fingers, feeling the delicate touch, her heart filled with joy and amazement. "I love it so much, it's so exquisite, far beyond my imagination."
Lin Jianyan gently took the clothes off the mannequin and said, "Then go and try it on. There is a secret door inside. Press it and there will be a fitting room inside. Amin, go and help Mrs. Wang put on the clothes."
Gu Min responded, took the cheongsam, and walked with Mrs. Wang toward the secret door. After the two disappeared behind the secret door, the room fell into a slight silence.
Mr. Wang looked at Lin Jianyan and praised him sincerely: "Mr. Lin, your craftsmanship is truly extraordinary. Even an outsider like me can see that this cheongsam is impeccable in both design and workmanship. It is understandable that my wife is so fascinated by it."
Lin Jianyan smiled modestly, "Mr. Wang, you are too kind. Without that diamond, I wouldn't dare to take on this porcelain work."
Mr. Wang was amused. No wonder everyone who had talked to Lin Jianyan could not stop praising him. He was a gentle person who spoke interestingly. It was hard not to like him.
Mr. Wang asked Lin Jianyan to sit on the sofa and the two started talking. He originally just wanted to have a polite conversation, but he didn't expect the conversation to get deeper.
We were just chatting casually and talked about the difficulties of work. I didn't expect that Lin Jianyan also had a keen and profound insight into the changes in the business world. What he said was very logical and reasonable.
The more shocked he was at Lin Jinyan's knowledge reserves, the more his shock showed on his face, and his eyes were full of admiration and praise for Lin Jinyan.
If Mrs. Wang hadn't come out, he would have almost asked Lin Jianyan to become his sworn brother.
Mrs. Wang came out gracefully in her cheongsam, and Gu Min followed behind her with eyes full of astonishment.
The cheongsam seemed like a second skin tailor-made for her, perfectly outlining her curves. With every step she took, the slit of the cheongsam would reveal a small section of her fair calves, and she was perfectly interwoven with intelligence and elegance.
Mrs. Wang shyly walked up to Mr. Wang and asked, "How about it, honey? Does it look good?" Her voice was filled with a hint of girlish coquettishness and expectation.
Mrs. Wang lowered her head slightly, but she couldn't help but secretly raise her eyes to observe her husband's reaction. Her hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of her cheongsam, looking like a child waiting to be praised.
Mr. Wang had been watching intently for a long time, his eyes now full of surprise and love. He stood up, gently held Mrs. Wang's hands, pulled her in front of him, and looked at her carefully.
"It's beautiful, so beautiful. You are absolutely gorgeous. This cheongsam looks like you walked out of a painting. Mr. Lin's design is ingenious, and you have given this cheongsam a soul."
