Chapter 590 Green is Your Color
Qiao Xi's almond-shaped eyes flickered as she asked, "What's the matter?"
There were some outsiders present at the design studio, so she didn't want to cause a scene with Lu Yingxue that would become too ugly and unresolved. She simply maintained a lukewarm and distant attitude.
Lu Yingxue smiled and said, "Miss Qiao has always had good taste. She chose a good husband and a good master. Even Master Yilin made things easy for you. When I came here, I couldn't get a reservation in the largest VIP room here, so I'd like to ask Miss Qiao to choose an engagement dress for Ayi. Is that okay?"
Qiao Xi frowned, not sure what Lu Yingxue was up to.
Is choosing a dress a trap?
"OK!"
Before Qiao Xi could finish her words, Huo Sijiao agreed.
"My sister-in-law and I are willing to give you some advice. It's a piece of cake. But everyone has different tastes. If what we say is not pleasant to the ear, please don't get angry, Miss Lu."
There was cunning in Huo Sijiao's eyes. She took Qiao Xi's hand and winked at her.
Lu Yingxue said kindly, "It's great that you're willing to help. Why would you be angry?"
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked towards the rest area and shouted, "Ayi, it's time to try on the dress."
She finished speaking.
A tall, graceful man with slender legs, like a noble and exquisite man from a cartoon, stood up. The shock at that moment almost made Huo Sijiao lose consciousness.
This is an instinctive appreciation.
I like this person, she is indeed someone who can make Xiang Mingzhu lose her mind due to lust.
With such beauty, such family background, such means and scheming, it is no wonder that many celebrities and rich girls in the imperial capital are obsessed with him.
Xiang Mingzhu is not wronged!
He walked closer, glanced at Qiao Xi with his seemingly affectionate eyes, and nodded without any emotion as a greeting.
"Ayi."
Lu Yingxue took Zhong Yi's arm and said intimately, "It just so happens that Miss Qiao and her friends are here. I can show you some dresses. I've been trying to find the right one for you for half a day but haven't found one. What do you think of this idea?"
She was filled with rage in her heart when she thought that Zhong Yi liked Qiao Xi.
She couldn't help but get angry, wanting to do something bad and vent.
On the one hand, she didn't want Zhong Yi to betray her, but on the other hand, she wanted to see Qiao Xi and Zhong Yi, the couple, hooking up. If they were to be ruined, it would be of great benefit to the Lu family.
Since he likes Qiao Xi, let the woman he loves most choose his engagement dress for him.
He must be feeling very bad.
"Not very good."
Zhong Yi said calmly, "Men's formal wear should be casual, there's no need to be so particular."
There was an unshakable coldness between his brows and eyes, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Don't tell me, Ayi doesn't want to trouble Miss Qiao?" Lu Yingxue's tone was filled with both resentment and coquettishness. "Our two families' engagement banquet is full of distinguished guests, and we can't afford any mistakes. Just give in to me."
Zhong Yi didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
A smile appeared in Lu Yingxue's willow-shaped eyes again, and she asked the shopping guides to take out all the men's suits.
Huo Sijiao said from the side: "Miss Lu, Master Zhong has a good temperament and good looks, and he looks handsome in any dress. You are having an engagement party, so it doesn't make much sense to choose a men's dress alone. You need a matching men's and women's dress to complement each other. Sister-in-law, don't you agree?"
"Indeed." Qiao Xi understood what Huo Sijiao meant. Since Lu Yingxue had bumped into him herself, she might as well go with the flow.
She continued, "Master Yilin's limited edition this season, I'm willing to give Miss Lu the privilege of choosing first. This is an engagement gift for you. Manager, please bring up all the women's dresses."
Lu Yingxue's expression paused, but she only dared to act cunningly in front of Zhong Yi and could not reveal that she already knew the truth about his and Qiao Xi's past.
I could only nod reluctantly.
By this time she had realized that she had made a wrong move today.
She shouldn't act on impulse and vent her anger over trivial matters.
"Manager, please prepare a pot of Ceylon tea and Chinese cakes for us. Let's not choose dresses yet. Let's wait until Mr. Zhong and Ms. Lu finish choosing, then we can continue."
Huo Sijiao acted like a young lady and gave orders as if she were entering her own home when she entered the luxury store.
The manager was also very easy to talk to: "Okay, I'll prepare everything. Please take a seat first, and call me if you need anything. Especially Miss Qiao, we will definitely provide attentive service."
Qiao Xi nodded in thanks: "Thank you."
After a while.
The sofa was placed in the front row, and the coffee table was filled with Chinese snacks and a pot of Ceylon black tea.
Qiao Xi and Huo Sijiao were sitting on the sofa, while Sun Weimeng was sitting on the edge of the sofa in a nonchalant manner, with a smile of watching the fun on his lips.
He also took out his cell phone and sent a message to Huo Xingzhou, reporting the situation on the scene at any time.
Setting up this stage is like watching a clown perform.
People in the capital have probably never seen Huo Sijiao's mouth.
Qiao Xi's eyebrows were covered with a faint smile. She looked at Lu Yingxue who was trying hard to maintain a smile and said, "Miss Lu, please."
Lu Yingxue tried to salvage the situation and said, "I have already picked out this dress. I just need to find a dress that matches Ayi's."
Zhong Yi's expression was cold. "This outfit doesn't look good on you. Engagement isn't a wedding, and these wedding dress elements are too formal. I don't like them. Since Miss Qiao has given you the exclusive privilege of Master Yilin, you can choose a new one first. I'll come back to match you after you've chosen."
It sounds like it's for Lu Yingxue's own good, but it also seems like he's deliberately going against Lu Yingxue.
Lu Yingxue almost couldn't hold back her smile. "Then let's listen to Ayi. And thank you Miss Qiao for your generosity. I'll pick out a few sets right away."
She looked at the row of tall hangers in front of her, and her fingers gently slid across and landed on a snow-white, exquisitely tailored dress.
Huo Sijiao said, "That dress doesn't suit you! Your hips are too wide, and white will only highlight your disadvantages. Miss Lu, I heard that the old man of the Zhong family really wants you to have a child. You do have advantages."
Lu Yingxue gritted her teeth and asked the shopping guide to get her a little red dress with a hollow design.
Huo Sijiao added, "Your skin isn't fair enough, and red can easily look tacky on you. Especially with this hollow design, it doesn't suit your reputation as a dignified and elegant female Hua Tuo. I think this red is more suitable for my sister-in-law, but you can choose whatever you want."
Lu Yingxue's fingers froze.
She turned around and said forbearingly, "Which one do you think suits me, Miss Huo?"
"That set."
Huo Sijiao pointed to the dress on the edge of the mobile hanger and said, "That green one suits you."
green?
What's the meaning!
Lu Yingxue couldn't help but think, who would wear green at an engagement party?
Sun Wei burst out laughing twice: "Huo Sijiao, green doesn't suit you. Don't curse Miss Lu, or everyone will think someone cheated on her. Choose carefully."
Huo Sijiao said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Miss Lu. I'll pick carefully again."
Lu Yingxue's lips curled up, with a cold look in her eyes: "Let Miss Qiao choose for me. The others' choices are not suitable. Miss Qiao has the best taste. Choose a set for both me and Yi, and then we can go change clothes."
"Miss Qiao, what do you think?"
