After that honest conversation, Jiang Mian deliberately used the excuse of "bride price" to get He Yubai to find a solution.
Because of her status, she was unable to return to school, but fortunately He Yubai was helping her with these matters.
As for Jiang Mian, she was like a newly appointed parasite in the He family, eating, drinking, and sleeping well at the hotel, with all the bills under He Yubai's name.
At first, she wanted to refuse, but seeing the other party deliberately pull out a long list of expenses, she said, "In that case, let's pay these expenses first."
Looking at that sum of money that was longer than her own life, Jiang Mian almost fainted. She wished she could sign a contract of servitude on the spot and sell herself to He Yubai.
After settling into the hotel, He Yubai didn't show up for quite some time.
The school hasn't urged me to go back yet, which is most likely because He Yubai has taken care of it.
As for the others, they seem to be quite busy as well.
Could it be that they've really gone to find a way to resolve the bride price issue?
It would be a lie to say she wasn't curious, but Jiang Mian deliberately called several times, taking the opportunity of casual conversation to ask about it.
He Yubai kept changing the subject and then made excuses to hang up, as if he was afraid that Jiang Mian would press him for details.
What exactly is this person up to?
A few days later, the front desk sent her a gift box.
Inside was a formal dress and a pair of crystal shoes. Before Jiang Mian could even react, she received a WeChat message from He Yubai:
—I'll be waiting for you here in the city center park.
It's a simple sentence, but it's somewhat baffling.
Before she could think further, there was another knock on the door. When she opened it, she saw the makeup artist and stylist who had made an appointment to come to her room.
Before Jiang Mian could react, the group of people introduced themselves: "Hello, Miss Jiang, we are here to serve you, arranged by Mr. He."
"Serve?"
Before she could finish her question, they had already pressed her into a chair: "We need to hurry, a car will be coming to pick you up later."
"Pick me up?" Jiang Mian was confused. "Where to? That city center park?"
"Yes!"
The group quickly got into work mode, while Jiang Mian was like a puppet being manipulated at will, having her makeup and hair done by them.
She was a little puzzled: "What is He Yubai up to now?"
“We don’t know,” they smiled at each other, their eyes sparkling. “You’ll understand when you get there.”
Seeing their expressions, Jiang Mian felt even more uneasy.
It's impossible that He Yubai would take her to meet his parents so late at night!
Oh my god!
Although I knew all along that these domineering CEOs liked to do things like acting first and asking questions later.
But when it actually happened to her, she still found it hard to accept.
Meeting my in-laws so early... Ugh! Meeting my uncle and aunt!?
She was completely unprepared!
You, He Yubai!
We haven't even started dating yet!
Things like the bride price and meeting the in-laws have already been arranged!
Although it's said that an ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her in-laws... oh wait, no, no!
She's not ugly!
What's wrong with her?!
Jiang Mian cursed herself inwardly, realizing she had really made a foolish mistake.
It has to be said that as soon as these thoughts popped into her head, she immediately felt quite nervous.
Isn't this developing too fast?
"Alright, Miss Jiang, your makeup and styling are complete. You can change into your dress and set off now."
"Oh, thank you... Eh!? Wait! So fast?! I was just spacing out, thinking about something, and you guys...?"
When Jiang Mian came to her senses, she was completely stunned.
Isn't this speed a bit ridiculously fast?
Or is it that she's a novice who doesn't know much about makeup and can't understand the techniques of these experts?
The men smiled and said, "Please trust us, we are absolutely professional!"
Jiang Mian looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a fitted sequined dress with a cheongsam-like design on the right side. The dress had a slit that went down from the top of her thigh, revealing her shapely legs hidden beneath the dress.
Then look at that small, palm-sized face, with bright eyes and pearly teeth, seemingly full of affection.
With the help of makeup, her facial features were delicate and three-dimensional, and her long hair behind her was also styled with slight curls. A few shorter strands of hair hung down, intentionally or unintentionally teasing her collarbone.
She always knew that she would be incredibly beautiful after becoming a girl.
But with all the enhancements today, it looks even more beautiful now!
She heard others praising her in a seemingly sincere yet polite way, but Jiang Mian thought to herself with a touch of arrogance: He Yubai is really lucky!
"There's no time to lose, Miss Jiang, you should set off immediately!"
Before Jiang Mian could react, the group quickly pushed her out the door and took the elevator downstairs.
"Hey!? Wait a minute!" Jiang Mian shouted while being held captive, "Sisters, why don't you tell me what He Yubai is up to? So I'll have some idea!"
"Don't be nervous, it's a good thing!"
The group simply laughed.
Luxury cars were already waiting downstairs. When Jiang Mian appeared in her glamorous attire, many people in the lobby turned their heads and marveled at her appearance.
"So beautiful, are you a celebrity?"
"It's very beautiful, but I don't think I recognize it."
Have you seen her on screen?
"No, maybe it's because it's not well-known."
"..."
Whether someone is a celebrity or not, whether they are famous or not, is not important in Jiangmian.
Because before she could even process what was happening, the driver told her they had arrived.
"We're here?" Jiang Mian stared in disbelief. "Uncle, running a red light is illegal."
