“What? Is that really a haute couture gown designed by Qiyan Studio? It’s stunning! It seems far more sophisticated than the latest collection Miss Gu is wearing…”
“Absolutely. When you compare the two gowns, it’s clear which is superior. This is my first time seeing Qiyan Studio’s haute couture, and it’s simply breathtaking!”
“It’s truly an awe-inspiring creation from the genius designer Qiyan Studio. And has anyone else noticed how this gown looks as if it was tailored specifically for that young lady? It’s almost too perfect a fit, don’t you think?”
“Indeed, whether it’s the proportions, the length, or the overall size, everything is flawlessly presented.”
“Seeing a Qiyan Studio haute couture creation in person makes my life complete.”
“Me too…”
The crowd craned their necks to get a better look at Rong Qi’s gown, their faces filled with astonishment and envy.
Those murmurs didn’t escape Gu Yuyan’s ears. She clenched her fists secretly, looking down at her own Qiyan Studio gown that she had just been so proud of. Now it seemed like an absolute joke. Standing next to Rong Qi, they seemed to contrast like a gem and a glass bead; Gu Yuyan appeared utterly dull.
Gu Yuyan was gritting her teeth so hard she almost shattered them.
Rong Qi stood next to Ye Nanshen. One exuded an air of exclusive aloofness, while the other was coolly radiant. They looked like a match made in heaven, a sight to behold.
Now the crowd wasn’t just astonished by Rong Qi’s gown; they were bewildered that she had directly taken her place beside Ye Nanshen.
What was even more jaw-dropping was that the usually stoic Ye Nanshen’s lips actually curled into a faint smile. This was something not even Gu Yuyan, who had grown up with him as a childhood friend, had been able to achieve.
The crowd speculated wildly, but none dared to voice their thoughts. Their curious eyes swept between the two, struggling to contain their urge to gossip. However, none were more stunned than the members of the Gu family.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu had always thought that Ye Nanshen’s secret wife was just someone his grandfather had randomly arranged, and they’d even heard she was a retard. Yet, the Rong Qi they saw didn’t look like a retard as rumored.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu exchanged glances, then looked towards their son Gu Ziye, who stood beside them, his mouth agape.
Gu Ziye was indeed awestruck by Rong Qi. Extremely awestruck. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He pondered, ‘How had I not noticed how stunning Rong Qi’s gown was by the pond earlier? I’d assumed it was just an ordinary black gown. I had not expected…’
Furthermore, Rong Qi tonight was different from how she usually was. Her naturally pretty face was adorned with makeup that complemented her features exceptionally well. Unlike her usual understated freshness, she now exuded a natural nobility, as if she was born to shine this brilliantly.
Gu Ziye swallowed hard, keeping his head low as he pondered, ‘Forget it, I no longer had any expectations. As long as Rong Qi didn’t make a spectacle of herself and embarrass both Shen and my family, it would suffice. Moreover, appearance-wise, Rong Qi did seem to be an adequate match for Shen. Just appearance-wise, of course! When it came to talent and family background, she was still leagues away from my sister!’
“Little Qi, meet Mr. and Mrs. Gu,” Ye Nanshen introduced, a slight smile gracing his lips.
Rong Qi beamed and nodded respectfully to Mr. and Mrs. Gu. She said, “Mr. and Mrs. Gu, I am Rong Qi. It’s both an honor and pleasure to meet you..”
