50 Clothing Designer
Mu Ci looked at her gently. “What’s wrong?”
Bei Shuo couldn’t help but pause under his gaze. However, her rationality made her quickly come back to her senses. “Can we delay the wedding?”
Mu Ci frowned. “Why?”
Mu Chen also became serious. “Girl, feel free to state your conditions. Grandpa will do my best to satisfy you.”
Bei Shuo hurriedly waved her hand. “No, Grandpa. I don’t have any conditions. I still have to go to school. Can we hold the wedding after I graduate?”
Mu Chen didn’t mind. “It’s alright. You’ve already registered your marriage and are legally husband and wife. The wedding won’t affect your studies!”
Bei Shuo was a little anxious. She hurriedly lowered her head and whispered into Mu Ci’s ear, “I have to invite Master and Senior Brother. I’ll have regrets for the rest of my life if they don’t attend my wedding!”
Mu Ci’s furrowed brows relaxed. That made sense.
Bei Shuo clearly only treated her master and senior brother as family. She would definitely be very happy to receive the blessings of the family whom she cared about.
“Alright! Grandpa, we’ll postpone the wedding, but you can start preparing first.” Mu Ci made the decision.
Seeing the intimacy between the two of them, Mu Chen couldn’t help but smile. “I didn’t expect you to have such a day, kid! It’s fine to leave it to me to prepare, but you can’t find it troublesome when the time comes!”
Mu Ci nodded.
“Young Master, these two designers want to custom make gowns for Young Madam.” Xiaobai walked in with two smart and elegant ladies in their early thirties.
Chen Hai’s eyes lit up. “Hey, you guys are here too?”
The two of them smiled at Chen Hai and greeted Mu Chen and Mu Ci before greeting Chen Hai.
Chen Hai smiled and said, “Here, this is the person you want to measure. I think she will definitely inspire your creativity!”
He turned to Bei Shuo. “Come, Sister, let me introduce you to two friends. These two are the chief fashion designers of the Si Hai Corporation, Yan Lü and Lu Xiao.”
Yan Lü and Lu Xiao’s eyes lit up when they saw Bei Shuo. They asked in surprise, “Chen Hai, did you help us find a model?”
“She’s my wife,” Mu Ci said calmly, suddenly feeling a little unhappy.
His Bei Shuo should be loved by everyone, but he couldn’t stand it when everyone loved her.
Yan Lü and Lu Xiao were shocked. “Wife?”
When did Boss get married?
Chen Hai crossed his arms proudly. “You didn’t expect this, did you? I didn’t think that there would be such a new thing as an iron tree blooming1. However, I advise you to make the best use of your time to measure her. Otherwise, someone might regret letting you get close to his little darling later.”
These sarcastic words were naturally meant for Mu Ci.
Mu Ci glanced at him calmly and said to the two of them, “Help her design gowns for all four seasons. Prepare one or two sets for all kinds of occasions. The design drafts have to be reviewed by me first.”
“Alright.” The two of them were practical. Unlike Chen Hai, who was talkative, they immediately started working.
Duan Si tried her best for a long time but could no longer suppress her anger. She said coldly, “Our Mu Family is a famous family after all. You have engaged stylist and designers this morning and even emptied the boutique, right? Are you not afraid that others will find out that you married a poor girl from the countryside?”
She watched in disdain as Bei Shuo was measured by the two designers in public.
Shen Yu and Bei Le’s faces burned again.
Mu Ci said calmly, “Mom, aren’t you going overboard by saying that in front of Madam Shen?”
Duan Si said angrily, “Overboard? She didn’t even bring any decent clothes with her when she married you. This is clearly them selling their daughter to a rich family to be a maid! To think you treat her like she’s a treasure! What right does she have?”
“Because I like her.” Mu Ci’s tone was cold. It was his usual attitude towards his mother.
Shen Yu was embarrassed. Her palms were sweating from anxiety. She couldn’t think of a response for a long time.
Bei Le said weakly, “Brother-in-law, it’s not what you think. It’s not that my mother didn’t prepare a dowry for Sister, but Sister doesn’t like it. That’s why she didn’t bring anything when she left home.”
Her voice was already trembling. “Sister, say something. You can’t let Mom and I be misunderstood by everyone like this! No matter what, you’re still our Bei Family’s daughter, Sister!”
Bei Shuo frowned at her. “What do you want me to say? Didn’t we sever ties from the moment I left home? Did you lose your agreement? I still have mine. Do you need me to make a copy for you?”
Bei Le almost choked.
