“This, this, this, this outfit can be worn?!”

Pei Ge gawked at the black evening gown in her hands and went Sparta!

Even if the outfit was not on full display, the plunging neckline alone was enough to render the conservative her speechless.

“Why can’t this outfit be worn? Do you know how much this Christian Dior’s top quality evening gown is worth? If not for CEO Ji, do you think I will let you wear it?” Lily rebutted with displeasure when he heard her audaciously fuss about the top-quality, custom-made evening gown.

She initially intended to endure and reveal a bit of her chest, but who knew that the evening gown was completely backless?!

How could she endure when the front and back were so revealing?!

“What if it’s Dior?! This gown is too revealing; how can I wear?!” Her cheeks blushed faintly as she eyed the evening gown in her hands.

“How is this revealing?! This dress is to show off your chest and your butt! This is art! Fashion, you know?!” Lily rolled his eyes and spat in his heart, Where did CEO Ji find this country bumpkin?!

“Exactly. Miss, how is this evening gown revealing?!”

“Yes. This evening gown can’t be worn by most!” The fashion experts around her began to express their opinions. Their uniformed thoughts were like a crusade in persuading her.

“This is not revealing? You all must be blind!” Pei Ge’s mouth twitched as she visualized how her skin would be exposed by wearing this evening gown. If this was a Chinese soap opera, it would really be harmonious!

“Alright, Miss Pei, stop talking nonsense; we don’t have much time, so quickly wear it and I’ll find accessories to go with it.” Lily could no longer be bothered to argue with her and forcefully pushed her into a dressing room.

“Hey, hey, hey! Don’t touch me! I’m not wearing this dress!” I’m definitely not wearing it! I only wanted to hole up at home and have no desire to attend this banquet in the first place. Plus, I haven’t had my lunch yet! Why must I endure this?!

Lily was taken aback by Pei Ge’s angry look and, after frowning for a while, asked his assistant to bring him his phone.

“Hello, Assistant Du, Miss Pei is not cooperating—”

Pei Ge did not really mind him calling Du Wen to complain about her, but she was shaken up when Lily hung up the phone and said the following words.

“Du Wen said your CEO Ji had given you three words: ‘Dock your pay.'” Lily grinned at her.

“…” Damn! she cursed inside as she thought of her salary getting deducted. I can’t believe that annoying person found my weakness! Docking my pay at everything! Dock, dock, dock your sister!

“Miss Pei, shall we go into the changing room, then? Actually, it’s just an outfit. All evening gowns are like this, so don’t think too much about it.” Lily softly comforted her when he saw the hesitation on her face.

She firmly pressed her lips together and refused to wear the outfit.

Although she had seen many female celebrities wear such revealing evening gowns and they all looked glamorous, those were other people. As for her, she would undoubtedly… not look good in one.

Lily did not want to create trouble. Since this woman before him was someone Ji Ziming had specially selected, how could he not give her some face. Besides, he quite liked her personality.

Thus, seeing her reluctance, he suggested with a light laugh, “Miss Pei, how about we compromise? You wear it, and I promise to add a shawl outside your evening gown. What do you think?”

Pei Ge’s eyes brightened at his suggestion and she readily agreed, “Alright! Sounds good!”

This way, she no longer has to choose between getting her pay deducted and wearing this revealing outfit!

She proceeded to bring the evening gown with her into the changing room. She was about to lock the door when she saw that a few female stylists were trailing after her.

Feeling strange, she asked curiously, “I’m going to change. Why are you guys coming in as well?”

“Miss Pei, we will help you change,” the two women explained with a gentle smile.

“Help me change?! Did I hear wrongly?!” she blurted out with wide eyes.

“Yes, Miss Pei.”

“… I’m not a child; I can change myself! You two hurry out!” She gestured for the two women to leave her be.

The two women merely smiled at her and stayed where they were standing.

“Miss Pei, you don’t understand. Based on your body shape, wearing this night gown will not be perfect in every area, so you need our help to fix those flaws.”

This was when she noticed an ancient corset along with a few other items that she had only seen in American TV shows in the women’s hands.

“What are those?” She looked strangely at the object and asked curiously.

“These nipple pads are to make your breasts look fuller and hold them in place, this corset is meant to make your waist slimmer, and this panty is to make your butt cheeks perkier and your hips sharper.”

“Huh?” She stared intently at the things in the women’s hands.

“Miss Pei, you need to wear all these with the evening gown. Let’s start.”

Huh? Start what?!

“Ah, I’ll wear them myself! I’ll do it myself! Don’t touch me!

“Get your hands off me! Just because you people are women doesn’t mean I won’t hit you!

“Ah, don’t make it any tighter! If you do, I will die!”

The mouths of the few people standing outside the dressing room twitched as they listened to the ruckus inside.

This was their first time having a client who was so noisy!

They really did not know how this noisy, down-to-earth lady was connected with the high and mighty CEO Ji that he would actually choose her as his plus one!

Ze, ze, ze!

After all the tossing, she managed to exit the dressing room with half her life.

When the dressing room door opened, and she appeared before their eyes, everyone was stunned…
