Chapter 108



Wen Xiao put on a set of clothes and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at herself in the mirror, and other customers were looking at her. Not only looking, but also whispering about how beautiful these clothes looked on her.

Celebrities are always more elegant than ordinary people, and clothes look more beautiful on them.

Wen Xiao was very satisfied with the several sets she tried on. She looked at them left and right in front of the mirror, and finally bought them all. One of the sets was given as a lottery, and the rest were paid for by Xie Dongyang.

Wen Xiao tried on and bought clothes here, which directly pushed the popularity of the opening ceremony to the highest point.

After the opening ceremony activities were held in the daytime, all the staff who participated in the activities, the invited relatives and friends, and all the people in the family went to the big restaurant for dinner in the evening.

Because the opening ceremony was a success, the atmosphere was very lively during the meal and drinking.

As the big boss of Rose Pavilion, Ruan Xi inevitably drank a little more.

After the meal, everyone waved and said polite words in the night, asking each other to be careful on the road, and then went home. Ling Yao drove Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue, first sent Ruan Qiuyue back to school, and then drove Ruan Xi home.

There were only herself and Ling Yao left in the car. Ruan Xi sat in the passenger seat, holding up her head and looking at him with a look of uncertainty. She suddenly asked him, "What do you think of sister? Is sister awesome?"

Ling Yao continued driving and replied, "Yes, sister is really awesome."

Ruan Xi smiled with satisfaction and said, "Don't call me sister, call me... rich woman!"

Ling Yao turned his head to look at her and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, rich woman."

Ruan Xi was even more satisfied. Suddenly, she leaned over with drunken eyes and kissed Ling Yao on the face with a strong smell of alcohol. It was not a romantic and gentle kiss. When they kissed, they even made a sound - MUA~

After the kiss, they even said: "You deserve a rich woman's kiss."

Ling Yao couldn't help but smile and said: "Thank you, rich woman."

Because the rich woman was drunk, he had to help her remove her makeup and wash her face when she got home.

It was not until midnight that the courtyard was completely quiet.

The next day, Ling Yao was awakened by the alarm clock and reached out to turn it off to get up. Because Ruan Xi drank and slept late, he did not wake her up, but let her sleep a little longer at home.

When Ruan Xi woke up, it was already noon. She got up, washed up, and had lunch directly.

After lunch, she sat down in the company for a while, and there was a knock on the door.

After saying "come in", the door was opened from the outside.

Qian Chuan took another newspaper and handed it to Ruan Xi, saying, "There should have been reporters yesterday. Our opening event was reported in the newspaper again, and the focus was on who was the lucky star who drew the clothes, and Wen Xiao."

Ruan Xi took the newspaper and looked at it. The reporter actually interviewed two other customers who drew the clothes. They also took a photo of Wen Xiao standing in front of the mirror trying on clothes, and gave a lot of space to report this event.

From beginning to end, no advertising fee was spent. It was in the newspaper twice, and all the attention was earned. Ruan Xi naturally felt very happy, and the corners of his eyebrows and mouth were all covered with a smile that could not be concealed.

After reading it, she put the newspaper on the desk. She looked at her watch and said, "Notice, meeting at 2 o'clock."

Shengfang became well-known in the local area with just an opening warm-up and opening ceremony. Of course, Shengfang's store did not affect the business of Rose Pavilion too much, because the two have different positioning and target groups.

Shengfang opened successfully, and the daily sales performance after opening was very stable, so Ruan Xi's pressure was much less. The next step is to carry out design and production step by step, and ensure the style and quality.

The spring weather is warm, and it makes people sleepy in the afternoon.

Ruan Xi sat behind the desk, flipping through fashion magazines while drinking coffee. She mainly read the color pages of the magazine, which were full of domestic and international fashion trends. The latest issue had several sets of new products.

After flipping through the magazine, she finished the coffee in the cup.

Ruan Xi just closed the magazine and put down the cup when there was another knock on the office door.

She hired an assistant for herself these two days. The girl was called Cheng Nonuo.

Cheng Nonuo opened the office door and came in with a fashionable woman and said, "Mr. Ruan, Miss Wen is here."

Ruan Xi saw Wen Xiao following behind Cheng Nonuo, and she quickly stood up with a smile and greeted Wen Xiao.

After meeting and having a meal together, they can be considered friends, especially since Ruan Xi and Xie Dongyang have been friends for many years. Ruan Xi asked Wen Xiao to sit down on the sofa, Cheng Nonuo went to make a pot of tea and brought some cakes and snacks.

Ruan Xi and Wen Xiao drank tea and chatted for a while. After a while, he asked her: "How about taking you to my studio?"

Wen Xiao came to the company to find Ruan Xi, of course, not to have afternoon tea and chat with her, she was to find Ruan Xi to design a wedding dress for her wedding. She nodded and stood up, and went to the studio next door with Ruan Xi.

Following Ruan Xi into the door of the studio, Wen Xiao was instantly shocked.

As a singer, she actually wore a lot of performance costumes, but all the performance costumes she had seen were not as beautiful as the clothes hanging in Ruan Xi's studio, especially the hanging dresses, which were dazzlingly beautiful at first glance.

Wen Xiao walked slowly into the studio, looking here and there, and was stunned.

Seeing that she was absorbed in the work, Ruan Xi did not disturb her and let her look at all the clothes hanging in the studio first.

After Wen Xiao finished looking, she returned to Ruan Xi and could not help but exclaimed: "Did you make all these clothes?"

Ruan Xi nodded at her, "Yes, this is my only hobby."

Wen Xiao asked again: "Don't you sell these clothes?"

Ruan Xi smiled and said, "These clothes will not be sold in bulk, only for people who like them."

These clothes are more like works of art, which is also her ultimate pursuit as a tailor and designer. Although she has opened a company and has two fashion brands and has become a business owner, she will not give up making clothes.

No matter how the environment and identity change, her determination to be a tailor for life will never change.

Wen Xiao was so moved that she looked at Ruan Xi and asked, "Can I... choose?"

Ruan Xi smiled and said, "Of course you can. Try any of the clothes here. Choose the style and design you like. I will definitely make you a unique one."

As a singer who has performed on stage countless times and worn many dresses, Wen Xiao couldn't stop trying on clothes for the first time. She tried on clothes in Ruan Xi's studio for a whole afternoon, and finally decided on her favorite one in the evening.

In fact, she likes them all, but she can only do one set.

After choosing the style of the dress, Ruan Xi personally measured her body size and said to her, "Give me a month and I will make a blank sample first. You can try it on then. I will modify it for you if you are not satisfied with it."

Wen Xiao was very embarrassed for delaying Ruan Xi's entire afternoon and said quickly, "I'm not in a hurry. We may not have the wedding until the end of the year. You just take your time. Don't worry."

After that, she asked Ruan Xi, "Where do I pay? I'll pay first."

Ruan Xi was not in a hurry for money either, so she just said, "Let Xie Dongyang pay after the dress is made."

Wen Xiao thought it was okay, so she smiled and said, "Okay, then let him pay when the time comes."

After saying this, it was almost time to get off work. Wen Xiao didn't have anything else to do today, so she asked Ruan Xi to go out for dinner together. It just so happened that Ling Yao also had to work overtime today, so Ruan Xi went to the wine shop with Wen Xiao.

Without Xie Dongyang and Ling Yao, the conversation would be more casual.

Ruan Xi said to Wen Xiao: "I heard from Xie Dongyang that you are very busy and often perform outside."

When it comes to performing outside, Wen Xiao suddenly sighed and said: "Don't mention it. I was reported by the troupe for taking private jobs outside before, and I was demoted and fined. Now I don't dare to do it anymore." Ruan Xi

knew that Wen Xiao was a member of the song and dance troupe, which was a formal staff with a fixed salary.

She thought for a moment and said, "So you don't have any other plans? I heard from Xie Dongyang that he wants to open a record company for you."

Wen Xiao said, "I did think about resigning, but if I resigned, I wouldn't be able to take jobs under the name of the dance troupe, and I couldn't find another place to go, so I felt very uncertain. There was no obvious way out for me locally. Many people went to the south to sing in karaoke bars, singing pop songs from Taiwan and Hong Kong. I had no experience in the industry at all. You can't just open a record company if you want to."

Ruan Xi nodded after listening, "That really needs to be carefully considered."

Wen Xiao swallowed the food in her mouth, and seemed to have no more worries. She only said: "I'm not in a hurry for the time being. I'm not very famous, and my foundation is not very stable. I'd better stay in the group and perform well, otherwise it will be bad to ruin my job."

Seeing that she had her own plans and ideas, Ruan Xi naturally didn't say anything more.

The two chatted about some light topics, and after dinner, they separated and went home.

When Ruan Xi got home, Ling Yao hadn't come back yet. She took her clothes and took a shower, then went to the kitchen to make a bowl of bitter melon moisturizing mask, applied it on her face, and lay down in the main room to watch TV.

Dream of the Red Chamber was playing on TV. Ruan Xi was lying down and watching half an episode when the phone at home suddenly rang.

Ruan Xi thought it was Ling Yao calling, so she got up and went to the phone, picked up the receiver and said "Hello".

But the voice that came out of the receiver was not Ling Yao's, but an older male voice, asking her: "Is this Ruan Xi? Is this Ruan Xi's home?"

Ruan Xi didn't recognize who it was, so she asked: "Yes, I'm Ruan Xi, who are you?"

The person on the other end of the phone said: "Xiaoxi, this is Director Liu from the village. No one answers your phone during the day. I called several times but no one answered. I had to stay at the brigade and called you at night."

Ruan Xi naturally I remember Director Liu from the countryside, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Director Liu, I'm busy at the company during the day. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Director Liu said, "It's like this. Because of the plan from above, all of our houses here will be demolished. It was decided at the beginning of the year. Recently, policies on resettlement and compensation have been finalized, so we need to find each household to sign an agreement. If you are free, please come to the village committee in the near future to sign the agreement, okay?"

Is it confirmed to be demolished? This was such a surprise that came suddenly. Ruan Xi subconsciously held the phone receiver with both hands and said quickly, "Okay, Director Liu, I got it. Thank you. I'll make time to go there in the next two days."

Director Liu answered on the other end, "Okay, okay, we'll talk about the rest when we meet. Come over earlier."
