Xu Zhuohua wasn't so arrogant as to want the stars in the sky. She selected several beautiful cheongsam styles at the tailor shop and took their measurements in the inner room.
A flamboyant and passionate woman walked into the tailor shop, wearing a pretty little dress, followed by two servants and a bodyguard.
Upon seeing Cheng Muyun, Luo Yunqiao's face lit up with a smile.
"Brother Mu Yun!"
Cheng Muyun looked up and saw that the person who came was Luo Yunqiao. He put away the account book and stuffed it into Zhang Qi's hand.
"Miss Luo."
Luo Yunqiao's father is the president of the Xinhai City Chamber of Commerce, who controls the resources of major chambers of commerce in the south. Cheng Muyun usually gives Luo Yunqiao some face, but since the president's name is on the ledger, his face is cold now.
Luo Yunqiao didn't sense Cheng Muyun's stiff tone at all. Instead, she happily walked to Cheng Muyun's side in her high heels and asked, "What are you doing here? Are you here to get a cheongsam for Mrs. Cheng?"
Cheng Muyun shook his head, and then Xu Zhuohua came out from the inner room.
She was visibly startled when she saw Luo Yunqiao.
Cheng Muyun quickly moved to Xu Zhuohua's side and asked softly, "Finished measuring?"
Xu Zhuohua nodded, but her gaze lingered on Luo Yunqiao. She was very beautiful, charming and flamboyant, and exuded an air of nobility.
Luo Yunqiao walked up to Xu Zhuohua, looking down at her, "Brother Mu Yun, who is she?"
Cheng Muyun said, "The eldest daughter of the Xu family in Dongzhou."
Luo Yunqiao's expression changed. "Miss Xu?"
Xu Zhuohua nodded slightly, "May I ask who you are?"
"Luo Yunqiao." Luo Yunqiao raised his chin and looked down at people.
Xu Zhuohua was suddenly startled.
This is Cheng Muyun's future wife. They're quite a good match, flamboyant and passionate, and domineering enough.
Her gaze slid back and forth between the two of them; they were a perfect match!
One in a pretty dress, the other in a suit and tie—they're a match made in heaven!
"So it's Miss Luo."
Luo Yunqiao frowned. "You know me?"
Xu Zhuohua shook her head. "I don't know you, but I've heard people mention you. They say you're beautiful and flamboyant, and seeing you today, it's true."
No one would be cold to someone who had been flattered, and Luo Yunqiao's expression softened a little. "So you're Mu Yun's childhood betrothed?"
Xu Zhuohua quickly waved her hand, "Miss Luo is too kind to me. I'm just a country girl, how could I be worthy of the young marshal? My father got on the good side of Governor Cheng and sent me to Xinhai City to broaden my horizons."
Hearing Xu Zhuohua say this, Luo Yunqiao completely lost his arrogance. He looked Xu Zhuohua up and down and said, "Your clothes are exquisite, but they are outdated. I'll recommend a few sample outfits to you."
The two of them started picking out styles hand in hand, completely oblivious to Cheng Muyun's darkening face.
"Actually, your face is very fair. Try this khaki dress, and put your hair up in an updo later. It will look very pretty."
Luo Yunqiao kept recommending clothes to Xu Zhuohua, and his suggestions were very pertinent.
Xu Zhuohua thought Luo Yunqiao's personality was really great, and they got along very well. Who wouldn't want a beautiful and rich best friend?
Luo Yunqiao had no ill intentions. Knowing that Xu Zhuohua wouldn't steal Cheng Muyun, he treated her as his friend.
The two held hands and browsed many shops, buying a lot of clothes and jewelry. The two of them picked out the items while Cheng Muyun paid for them with a dark expression on his face.
Women who go shopping never tire, and the two of them continued shopping until dusk, when they arrived at the Paramount Ballroom.
Miss Luo suddenly had a whimsical idea, "Zhuohua, shall I take you to the Paramount Ballroom? There are many beautiful dancers there, and the new songs that the gentleman composed are very fashionable. It seems that Miss Hu is also having a special performance today."
"OK."
Xu Zhuohua also wanted to see the new Haicheng at night, especially the dazzling Paramount Ballroom.
