Chapter 48

Qi Yan came to the studio in the afternoon with another girl by her side.

Shen Yin had specifically instructed Chen Nuan and Li Huanhuan to let her know when Qi Yan arrived.

So Chen Nuan notified Shen Yin right away. Shen Yin replied: [Just see what she says first, don't reveal my information yet.]

[Got it.]

"I booked an appointment yesterday to come get a dress for a ceremony." Qi Yan said as she stood in front of the counter to the right of the studio entrance.

"Of course, ma'am." Li Huanhuan replied professionally.

"I want your studio's most expensive, finest dress."

"Ma'am, our dresses are custom-made. What we have in the store right now are just samples. The most expensive one we have is that traditional Chinese wedding gown over there." Chen Nuan pointed to the Chinese wedding gown on the other side of the room.

Qi Yan looked in the direction Chen Nuan was pointing. It was a solemn, deep red Chinese wedding gown, quite elegant and exquisite indeed, but she wasn't getting married, so what would she need a wedding dress for?

"Then I want a custom-made dress. Where is your manager?" Qi Yan's tone was displeased.

Chen Nuan didn't know what to do. She replied to wait a moment and immediately sent a message lowering her head.

[Qi Yan is asking for the person in charge.]

When Shen Yin saw the message, she handed Zhengzheng over to Shu Yi and said, "I'll go downstairs to take care of it."

Shen Yin strode down the stairs, pretending not to know Qi Yan was here. "I heard you're looking for the person in charge?"

Qi Yan immediately turned around, incredulously saying: "You're the manager?"

"Qi Yan! I'm so sorry, I was dealing with something upstairs just now."

Hearing Shen Yin say this, Qi Yan's expression soured even more. Forcing down her anger, she said: "Well, since that's the case, can I place a custom order now?"

"I know, right? I didn't expect Gu Mengmeng to be so arrogant in real life. It really is all fake on TV."

"You're right about that. But it seems my girl also carefully crafts her image. Yet I prefer her true personality even more." Chen Nuan said.

"Do you think this will negatively impact the studio at all?" Shu Yi asked Shen Yin after going back upstairs.

"No worries. I'll take care of it. I didn't do anything wrong. And we got quite a few orders this morning and afternoon, so that charity gala last night was great for me. The effect has been achieved."

"What I need to do now is make sure your dress steals the spotlight at the press conference, shining brilliantly. If I can pull this off successfully, I should be able to start working on furniture."

At dinnertime, Shen Yin told Xu Xiuhe about Qi Yan's visit to the studio.

"She didn't do anything bad, did she?" Xu Xiuhe asked.

"No, the studio just didn't have any ready-to-wear dresses, so she left." Shen Yin said.

Shen Yin actually wanted to say she seemed to have some bad feelings towards Qi Yan, though she was oblivious when it came to relationships and didn't know why.

Was it because Qi Yan had provoked her, or because Qi Yan was Xu Xiuhe's ex-girlfriend? Shen Yin still hadn't figured it out.

"Mama, mama, want to sleep sleep."

Shen Yin looked at the time - it was Zhengzheng's bedtime. He always got sleepy earlier than her. Like right now, he was already drowsy right after dinner.

"I'll give Zhengzheng a bath tonight." Shen Yin said.

"Then I'll clean up the dishes."

Their division of labor was so clear, they really seemed like an old married couple.

After Shen Yin finished bathing Zhengzheng, she went to bed early herself. To reward herself for the past few days of hard work, she drank a cup of warm milk to help her sleep, planning to get a good night's rest.

But she had another nightmare, except the protagonist wasn't her this time. She was startled awake, got out of bed to drink some water. Her previous nightmare had come true, so this one was probably real too.
