Chapter 223 - ...How Much I Wanted The Dress
The next morning, Jia Li goes to sign the deal with FJ and her school. She was giving the rights of her dress to FJ.
After signing off the rights to dress, Sunny spoke to her for a few minutes before leaving. She reminded her about the offer and asked her to think about it.
Before Jia Li left, her teacher talked to her about some interview requests for her but Jia Li asked to reject them.
"Is there any reason you don't want an interview?" Her teacher asked with an inquisitive gaze. She was very curious because if it was other people that got this kind of opportunity, they would make use of it to become popular but Jia Li was doing the opposite, so she was interested in knowing her reasons.
"I don't want the attention of the media." Jia Li replied.
Her teacher could not speak more about it, since Jia Li was no longer her student.
When Jia Li got home, she told Fu Hua about the interview requests that were reached out to her through her school, which she rejected and he asked for the reason.
She gave the same response she gave to her teacher.
"Do you ever feel angry with me because of this?" Fu Hua asked with his gaze on her. He was worried she would feel bad because of the big opportunities she was going to miss because of the pregnancy.
"How can I feel bad when you helped me to get those opportunities and to stand in the limelight?" Jia Li said with a smile.
Two days later, FJ announced that they got the rights to Jia Li's dress. The media immediately requested an interview but FJ rejected them, so they went ahead to ask them an important question, publicly.
"Do you have plans of working with Miss Qin?"
FJ Styles replied, "We will all know the answer to that question in the future."
As Christmas day was fast approaching, Jia Li let the servants decorate the house with festive decor.
Fu Hua did not let her go out to shop since she has turned into a mini-celebrity. If she left the house without disguise, she would be recognized and that may not be a good idea, especially now that she was pregnant.
While preparing for the festive period, FJ Styles launches the dress Fu Hua designed, along with Jia Li's school project dress.
All of these were ordered by Fu Hua, as he wanted to give some credit to his wife and quickly the launching of the two dresses gained a lot of attention and popularity.
It was only a few people that knew that both dresses were designed by Fu Hua and his wife, the rest were clueless about it.
Once again, Jia Li comes to the limelight as people began to speculate what FJ was up to by launching a dress made by their boss and the best graduating student of the Prestigious school of xxxxxxxxxxx.
Many of them thought that FJ was interested in working with the young fashion designer and so were giving her a boost.
FJ made another wave when they returned the original project dress to Jia Li.
When the media asked about it, FJ replied that their Boss, Fu Hua wanted the young fashion designer, Jia Li, to have a copy of her work, as a way of encouraging her hard work.
Many people praised Fu Hua for being so thoughtful towards the young fashion designer, not knowing it was a way for the husband to show love to his wife.
Fu Hua personally returned the dress to Jia Li telling Sunny he would handle it. Normally, it wasn't right for their Boss to do that kind of works but since he wanted to do it himself, she didn't say a word.
Jia Li was so excited when Fu Hua brought the dress home.
She jumped on him out of excitement and Fu Hua caught her as he used his hands to support her.
"Thank you so much, you really knew how much I wanted the dress." Jia Li said to him happily.
"Of course, I knew! Your facial expression the day we were to send it out, told me how much you wanted the dress, so I had to bring it back and it's your size." Fu Hua said to her.
Jia Li kissed his lips and said with her gaze on him, "You are such a darling!"
"Am I?" Fu Hua asked.
"Yes! Thanks for caring about me." Jia Li said with a grateful smile.
"There is no problem." Fu Hua replied as he slowly let her jump off his body.
"There is one more thing I need to do." Jia Li said with her gaze on him.
"And what is that?" Fu Hua asked curiously.
"I need your help with composing a message to reject the offers given to me by those companies. I need to send them a mail since I'm not interested." Jia Li said to him.
Since she wasn't joining any company yet, she had to reject their offer, as it was the right thing to do.
Over the past several days, she got so many offers from a lot of designer companies, asking her to work with them. She had no idea how most of them got her Email address, later she guessed it may be her school that gave it out.
Fu Hua accepted to help her and so Jia Li passed her phone to him and went to use the restroom.
By the time Jia Li came back to the bedroom, Fu Hua was already through with replying to the mails so, he gave her phone back to her.
Jia Li was curious to know how he replied to the mails, so she opened one to check. Her eyes widened in shock and she proceeded to check the rest of the mails he helped her to reply and discovered it was the same text and format.
She was surprised with how direct and unfeeling his replies were and she made a mental note to ask him for this kind of help again.
Fu Hua noticed the change in her facial expressions and asked about it and Jia Li went on to complain about the replies he sent out.
"It's a mature way of rejecting them." Fu Hua said she justified his style of response.
'Ah! I'm really not like you, cold and unfeeling!' Jia Li thought to herself.
