Chapter 231 Too Beautiful
Mu Zhi stood rooted to the ground, staring at the man who called himself her father.
Just as Mu Zhi was flustered to manage her thoughts and emotions, the man closed into her
unwaveringly. “I understand that it might be hard to accept that I’m your father. But I’ll slowly prove
myself.”
He turned back to glance at the wedding gown designer’s studio, then checked his time and said, “Mu
Zhi, I was too anxious to rush here upon receiving the news. There should be something you need to
do, and I shall not disturb you for now.”
Following that, the man who called himself her father straightened his back and left.
Mu Zhi gazed at the man as he walked away doubtfully. She hesitated for a long while before deciding
to enter the designer’s studio.
Not long after, Lu Jinye showed up. Mu Zhi had picked several designs of wedding gowns by the time
he got there.
As soon as he stepped through the door, Lu Jinye pointed at the gown with the royal cathedral train,
“This one.”
That was similar to what the princess of England wore during her wedding.
The designer created two versions for the princess with some differences in the details.
The princess’ wedding gown was magnanimous and eye-catching, while this one skewed towards
modesty.
Mu Zhi traced her gaze along the direction Lu Jinye pointed at and found the wedding gown. Her eyes
widened with a twitch when she did, and she strode towards Lu Jinye to say, “Let’s not go with that.”
Moments earlier, when she just entered the bridal studio, the same wedding gown caught her attention.
However, the assistant designer mentioned that it was a priceless piece of work. One could not buy it
just with money.
The assistant’s tone told Mu Zhi that it was a difficult feat to purchase that piece.
Moreover, the owner of the designer’s studio was a first-tier fashion designer. She was responsible for
custom-making similar styles for celebrities and occasionally royal members of the Eastern European
countries. All of her designs were beautiful in different ways.
Mu Zhi did not feel like she had to wear the most dazzling one.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Lu Jinye proclaimed to her, “I hope to give you an unforgettable wedding.”
Then, Lu Jinye lifted his phone to make a call, ordering his man to handle the wedding gown.
Mu Zhi stood on the same spot with Lu Jinye’s words echoed in her head. Those words were ruffling to
one’s heart. The assistants standing next to them were gasping inaudibly, because there were excited
by the sound of Lu Jinye’s succinct proclamation.
Lu Jinye had a striking appearance, and with his domineering and romantic personalities, he became
even more attractive.
Mu Zhi was worried that she might be a target of jealousy if she continued to linger. Thus, she hastily
scurried to another room, pretending to pick a dress for her bridesmaid.
In hindsight, there was nothing much to choose, because… The lone candidate for her bridesmaid was
Jian Xiaoning.
She went through ups and mostly downs in recent years, and she had to keep a low profile during her
first marriage with Lu Jinye.
Jian Xiaoning was the only friend she had by her side as she braved through all adversities.
Mu Zhi merely took five minutes to pick a dress for Jian Xiaoning, but Lu Jinye had managed to take
care of the wedding gown within the timespan. He requested the assistant to retrieve the gown for him
so he could hand it to her personally.
The studio’s staff intended to usher Mu Zhi into the fitting room, but Lu Jinye had taken the liberty to
lead her in himself.
The train of the wedding gown draped across the floor magnificently. Under the sparkling crystal
chandeliers, Mu Zhi’s fair complexion and the elegant wedding gown gave her an ethereal ambiance,
as though she had just descended from the heavens.
Lu Jinye had witnessed many beautiful sides of Mu Zhi, including when she was decked up in a
splendid evening gown. But he could not hide his astonishment when he saw Mu Zhi at this moment.
He sized up Mu Zhi and then reached out to seize her hand, gathering her towards himself and placing
a gentle kiss on her lips. Then, he said to her affectionately, “I should’ve given you the most glamorous
wedding a long time ago. That way, I get to see your most beautiful side.”
Mu Zhi did not expect to yield such a reaction from Lu Jinye, but she could sense Lu Jinye’s words’
sincerity.
She was curiously walking towards the mirror to check herself out when Jian Xiaoning suddenly barged
into the studio in a timely fashion.
“Mu Zhi, you’re too beautiful!” Jian Xiaoning cheered excitedly from afar.
Listening to her seemingly exaggerated tone, Mu Zhi could not help but laugh, “Stop overreacting.”
“No, I’m not. You’re too beautiful!”
Jian Xiaoning turned Mu Zhi around to face her and said, “Let me tell you what, any woman who sees
you in this gown would yearn to be a bride.”
With how pretentious Jian Xiaoning sounded, Mu Zhi did not take her seriously.
However, she was stunned when she turned to face the mirror, awed by how great Lu Jinye’s taste
was!
It felt like every other gown in the studio had lost their splendor and she was standing at the center of
the spotlight.
The staff at the studio was busy fixing her skirt when she said, “There were some celebrities who
insisted on trying this gown earlier, but none of them could rock it with so much elegance like you, Miss
Mu!”
“I’m so envious.” Amid the ladies’ rapacious voices, Mu Zhi fixed her eyes on the fitting room entrance,
where Lu Jinye had just stepped out of in suit newly-fitted tuxedo. Her jaw almost dropped to the
ground.
Lu Jinye looked mature and dignified all the time when he wore a suit. But the tuxedo came with subtle
glitter. His gleaming appearance stole the attention of every pair of eyes in the studio. It felt like nobody
could take their eyes off him.
It wasn’t until Jian Xiaoning started giggling that Mu Zhi came back to her senses. Jian Xiaoning teased
her, “I’ll leave you couple here to it. There’s no place here for me.”
“I feel just like a third wheel in this place.”
“Why do I get the feeling that both of you used to be more reserved to show your affection, but it seems
like your love is piercing through my pupils right now?”
Mu Zhi blushed upon listening to Jian Xiaoning playful remarks.
She promptly gathered her thoughts and said to the staff, “Let me take this gown off, I’ve decided to go
with this.”
“Xiaoning, don’t go, try out the bridesmaid’s dress.”
Mu Zhi clutched Jian Xiaoning’s arm to stop her from leaving.
In this instance, judging from Mu Zhi’s actions, Lu Jinye knew to leave the girls alone sensibly. He
glanced at the time and said, “I have a meeting that’s starting soon, I’ll let you take care of the rest.”
“Sure.”
Mu Zhi nodded and sent Lu Jinye away reluctantly.
For some reason, every time Mu Zhi locked her eyes with Lu Jinye recently, and she would feel her
heartbeat racing and her cheeks blushing.
Why did it feel like she had returned to her adolescent self?!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmReturning to her rational mind, Mu Zhi fetched the dress she had selected for Jian Xiaoning earlier.
She requested the staff members to excuse them. Then, Mu Zhi and Jian Xiaoning took their time
changing in the fitting room while chit-chatting casually.
Jian Xiaoning was the first the speak. “I saw Xiao Qingqing’s car parked at a distance earlier when I
came. Do you think she has some ulterior motives?”
