After the show, Lin Dan put on her bathrobe, walked backstage, and stared at the pair of black six wings hanging on the wall. They are huge, up to three meters long when unfolded, with one pair facing upwards, one pair in the middle, and one pair hanging down. Just looking at them makes one feel as if they are a sacred object lost in the world, full of mystery.
Many models took photos next to it, and some even tried to take it off and wear it themselves.
Lin Dan stared at it quietly with a solemn expression.
Auston walked up to her and whispered, "Is it beautiful?"
"Beautiful." Lin Dan nodded.
"I sewed every feather on it by myself. When I was making it, you were all I could think of," said Auston seriously.
If someone didn't know him, they would definitely think he was confessing his love, but Lin Dan didn't think that way. He just regarded her as a source of inspiration, so he would unconsciously incorporate her images and style into his works. She stared at the three pairs of wings, her dark eyes filled with a fire called ambition.
Auston looked at her deeply and continued, "How does it feel to fly?"
"It feels great," Lin Dan looked back at him and said word by word, "So I want to try how high and how far I can fly. I want to go to the peak that no one has ever been to and take a look." Before this, her heart had been locked in a cold prison, limited by the numerous boundaries and rules she had drawn. She doesn't know the taste of indulgence, nor does she understand the feeling of willfulness. However, this time, she wants to try to live a different life. She wants to taste the taste of freedom.
Auston laughed deeply and said firmly, "You can do it. You can definitely stand at the highest point. You know, dear, I will support you from below."
"Thank you, Mr. Dodge." Lin Dan said this sincerely, and then took the initiative to hug Auston.
Auston patted her back gently, his emerald eyes filled with joy and satisfaction. Each of his shows was unparalleled. Logically, he should have been accustomed to the taste of success, but for some reason, when he hugged Lin Dan, he felt that this big show was the best one in his life. No, maybe there will be a better one, or even more, as long as Lin Dan can always be by his side.
Lin Dan quickly stepped out of Auston's arms and walked towards the locker room. When passing the interview room, she saw Baird was surrounded by a group of reporters in the corridor and couldn't move at all. He is the real superstar of this show, and even Lin Dan cannot take away his glory. To be honest, the three songs he sang were very beautiful. The first one was passionate, the second one was ambiguous, and the third one was ardent. They were all masterpieces that could move people's hearts. If Lin Dan hadn't been working, she would have stopped and applauded him.
Baird also noticed her and immediately pushed away the reporters around him, trying to get closer to her. However, the huge diamond ring on his hand attracted the attention of these people, who blocked him even more tightly. Even though Baird is a tall man over 190 cm tall, he can't escape from the siege of these reporters. They are the bullies in the workplace.
"Mr. Adams, why are you wearing a diamond ring on the ring finger of your left hand? Are you about to end your single life?" these people asked aggressively.
"No, I'm still single. This ring has a very special meaning to me. I hope that in the near future, I can end my single status." Baird answered questions while walking. His good upbringing prevented him from pushing reporters, even though he wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly to Lin Dan's side.
“Who did you write those three songs for?”
"Isn't it obvious? My lady is an oriental goddess." When answering this question, Baird stared at Lin Dan. He couldn't get to her right away, so he just stood there. He knew too well how bad his character was. Once he left the halo of the stage, he really didn't have the courage to confide those words of love to Lin Dan.
Looking at the reporters surrounding him, his purple eyes lit up, and his anxious tone was replaced by patience: "What else do you want to ask? Let me make it clear first, you can only ask questions about my love life, and filter out questions related to my work and career."
Reporters: "..." Did you say the opposite of Mr. Adams?
Baird used his actions to tell them that he was not saying the opposite: "Yes, it's a relationship issue. Ask me, and I will answer you seriously."
He stared at Lin Dan without blinking, his eyes full of longing and pleading.
Lin Dan, who had originally planned to leave quietly, stood still for some reason. She pulled her slightly open nightgown closer and looked back at the extremely handsome and shy man with the same serious eyes. Since they met, he had never made any excessive demands on her, so if he just wanted her to stay, then she would stay.
Seeing Lin Dan facing him from a distance and not leaving, Baird's anxious heart miraculously calmed down. He touched his heart and tasted a little sweetness from the tip of his tongue. He couldn't help but urged: "Ask, there will be no chance after today."
The reporters woke up as if from a dream and asked quickly: "Excuse me, Mr. Adams, are you serious this time?"
"I couldn't be more serious."
"How far have you and Lin Dan progressed?"
"At the moment, it's just unrequited love, so I took the initiative to find Mr. Connor and asked him for cooperation. I hope to express my feelings on the stage, and I hope she can give me a chance to pursue her." His gaze passed over the crowd and stuck to Lin Dan, his eyes full of affection.
Lin Dan looked away uncomfortably, but quickly looked back. She originally wanted to escape, but suddenly, she realized that doing so would be hurtful to Baird. Sure enough, Baird's eyes dimmed because of her escape, but he was happy because she looked at him again. His heart was completely open to her without any concealment.
Lin Dan was filled with helplessness, but there was nothing she could do about him.
"Mr. Adams, if your pursuit is successful, will you propose to Lin Dan?" The reporter dug up gossip unscrupulously.
"If she is willing, I can propose to her now." Baird said very seriously.
The reporters became even more excited and asked bluntly: "Your fans seem to be very resistant to her, what are you going to do?"
"My love is always the most important. I will protect her at all costs." Baird looked at Lin Dan with a firm gaze.
Lin Dan covered her face and sighed, not knowing that her two red ears were exposed.
Baird couldn't help but chuckle, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes.
"Mr. Adams, does your family allow you to marry a lingerie model? And she is of Oriental descent."
Baird's soft expression was instantly replaced by a hard one, and he said word by word, "I am the head of the Adams Family. My decision is the decision of the entire family. No matter what job my lover does or what her bloodline is, she will always be the most noble in my heart."
Lin Dan put down her hands that were covering her face and looked carefully at the tall and handsome man for the first time. It turns out that shyness is only his state when facing himself, and the real him is so strong. She saw that he was fascinated, but she didn't care when Auston came up from behind and pushed her into the dressing room: "Go change quickly, the celebration party is waiting for you."
A.C. executives and fashion moguls will all attend the celebration party later, so arriving on time is a courtesy. Lin Dan smiled at Baird and left. She already understood his feelings, but now, she wanted to focus on her work. Moreover, she didn't know this man well, so how could she rashly accept his pursuit?
After Lin Dan left, Baird ended the interview immediately. The reporter, who had obtained a lot of important information, let him go contentedly and hurried back to write his article.
At the banquet, Lin Dan was firmly held by Auston's side. He led her to make friends with important figures in the fashion circle, introduced her to several art directors of blue-blood brands, and constantly sought opportunities for her to walk in fashion shows or be endorsed. He completely forgot that he was the godfather of the fashion circle, not Lin Dan's agent. His favor for her was obvious to all and unscrupulous.
Baird was excluded from his social circle and could only watch Lin Dan from a distance, silently following her around the field. If Lin Dan accidentally glanced at the dining table, he would pick up some low-calorie food for her and bring it to her. If she finished her glass, he would go find the waiter, get her a new one, and whisper to her to drink less. He couldn't join in the conversation because he knew nothing about fashion, but his presence was real.
The two bodyguards responsible for protecting Baird sat in a corner, drinking champagne and chatting. One of them bumped into his companion's shoulder and whispered, "Look, doesn't the boss look like a puppy when he follows Lin Dan everywhere?"
"Boss? Puppy?" Another bodyguard took a closer look at Baird and found that his eyes were wet and full of longing when he looked at Lin Dan. He couldn't help but chuckle, "Man, your description is so apt! Hahahaha! If Lin Dan looked at him for a second longer, he would wag his tail like crazy with joy!"
The two men slapped their thighs and laughed wildly for a while, causing the guests nearby to look at them sideways.
The banquet finally ended, and Lin Dan walked out of the hotel holding Austin's arm. She is the main show and Auston is the designer, so it is reasonable for her to be his female companion today. But when she was out of sight of the guests and reached the door, she immediately let go of his arm and said politely, "Goodbye, Mr. Dodge, and have a good sleep."
A Rolls-Royce slowly slid towards her and opened the window. Baird said nervously, "Lin, can I take you back to the hotel?"
"No, thank you, and I wish you a good dream." Lin smiled and waved, then got into Bolsa's Ford car parked in an inconspicuous corner.
Auston and Baird could only watch her walk away, and the scene was captured by paparazzi waiting at the hotel entrance. He originally thought that he could follow Lin Dan tonight and take pictures of her dating one of the two chosen men, but he didn't expect that her personality was even tougher than her stage presence, and she was not moved by these two people at all.
