Chapter 321 - The Changing Room
Chapter 321: The Changing Room
It would be her birthday next month.
If Qin Mufeng hadn’t planned it yet, they wouldn’t be able to make it on time.
Qin Muye had some understanding of this brand.
In order to have their designer custom-make something, the customer needed to have a great reputation so that they could add value to the brand and not hurt the brand’s high-end image that had been built up over many years.
Just thinking about the time needed to make a dress like this, Wei Zhiqian must definitely have contacted them a long time ago..
Certainly not in the past two or three months…
He must have done it at least six months ago.
Qin Muye was envious.
She didn’t know if Qin Mufeng would put in that much effort for her.
“Other than the dress, Mr. Wei also ordered a pair of shoes.” The store clerk brought out a pair of shoes.
Also ordered by Wei Zhiqian…
Just like what the store clerk had described earlier, the shoes were completely embellished with crystals.
They shimmered under the lights of the store.
“Since the shoes are embellished with crystals, they might not be suitable for everyday wear and are definitely not as comfortable as pure leather. Even if we had added crystals to leather, the material would still be a little hard,” the store clerk explained. “Our designer redesigned and amended the design multiple times in order to maximize the comfort level of this pair of shoes.
“So now, although they are not suitable for daily wear, you can still wear them for occasions such as birthday banquets, and you certainly won’t be uncomfortable.”
“Do you like it?” Wei Zhiqian asked Tan Mo.
They would take it if she liked it. If she didn’t like it, they could throw it all away.
Of course, he had already paid for them.
“I do! I like it all!” Tan Mo nodded her head vigorously.
She really did like them!
How could she describe this?
It was like being a queen or a princess…
The embroidery on the dress was glamourous and grand and fit for a queen.
However, when the environment was dark, with a spotlight cast on the dress, the stones on the embroidery would shine. The hem of the dress would also glow and even become translucent.
Plus the shoes, which were like stepping on a river of stars.
Then it became like a princess…
A princess from a fairy tale… She felt as if she had stepped out of a book or a painting!
Wei Zhiqian sighed in relief. “I am so glad that you like it.”
After all, he had put a lot of effort into the preparation.
If everything hadn’t been liked by Tan Mo, he would have been disappointed.
“Ms. Tan, shall I accompany you to the changing room to try on the dress?” the store manager asked Tan Mo.
Tan Mo recalled that her shoulder would definitely have a bruise, and this dress coincidentally would reveal the shoulder area.
If the store manager saw it, there might be some misunderstanding.
Tan Mo said, “No need. I will change into the dress myself.”
The store manager thought that the young lady was being shy and was not willing to let strangers see her change, so she smiled and said, “Then if you need anything, call me at any time.”
Tan Mo quickly nodded.
The store manager and the store clerk accompanied Tan Mo to the entrance of the changing room and passed the dress to her.
Anyway, Wei Zhiqian had already paid for the dress.
She needn’t worry even if Tan Mo accidentally spoiled the dress.
However, since Tan Mo didn’t wear any makeup, there was no need to worry about transferring any onto the dress.
The dress was heavy. Without anyone’s help, it was a little troublesome to put it on, on her own.
After a long time, Tan Mo finally got it on.
Wei Zhiqian was feeling very expectant as he waited outside.
He was thinking about how stunning Tan Mo would look in the dress as she exited the changing room.
Who could have imagined that Tan Mo would poke her head out of the changing room, calling, “Uncle.”
Wei Zhiqian heard Tan Mo say, “Uncle, can you come over here for a minute?”
Everyone looked over in shock.
If there was any problem with the dress, shouldn’t she call for the store clerk?
Otherwise, she could also call for Qin Muye.
Because they were both girls, it would be more convenient to talk about the problem.
Why would she call for Wei Zhiqian?
Wei Zhiqian also felt that it was weird, but he still obediently walked over to the entrance of the changing room.
Tan Mo then showed him her shoulder. “Uncle, look, it is already purple.”
Wei Zhiqian lowered his head to look, and when he saw Tan Mo’s shoulder, he knew that it was the area that Wei Keli had held onto.
It was already a large patch of purple.
By the looks of it, it was clear how much force Wei Keli had used.
Tan Mo’s skin was fair, and it made the green-and-purple bruise appear even more terrifying.
Wei Zhiqian raised his hand and lightly touched Tan Mo’s shoulder with his fingertips.
Tan Mo’s shoulder shuddered.
“Does it hurt?” Wei Zhiqian frowned and asked.
Tan Mo nodded her head, but then shook her head dazedly.
There was a little pain…
But there was more of another feeling…
It was a feeling that Tan Mo was not able to describe.
The little snow fairy became mesmerized when Wei Zhiqian’s fingertips touched her shoulder.
It was as if there had been a small electrical charge.
It was crisp and was even a little itchy.
It was a little hot and a little cold.
Even Wei Zhiqian seemed to be dazed.
Since Tan Mo had been young, he had at most held her hand or pinched her cheek.
He had never touched anywhere but these two areas.
When his fingertips touched Tan Mo’s shoulder, the smooth feeling lingered on his fingertips.
It was like… It was like touching a tender piece of tofu, a piece of freshly made milk tofu.
This feeling was very foreign to him too.
Wei Zhiqian was the first to return to his senses as he looked at the dazed Tan Mo. “So does it hurt or not?”
“It felt painful when Wei Keli was gripping it, but it didn’t hurt when Uncle just touched it,” Tan Mo answered, still in a slightly dazed state.
When he touched it…
This choice of words.
Wei Zhiqian raised his hand and covered his mouth to cough dryly.
“Uncle, may I use my healing powers?” Tan Mo showed Wei Zhiqian her shoulder again. “This would not look nice if I wear the dress.”
This was a day that would only happen once in her life.
The day she turned an adult.
She must be beautiful.
Wei Zhiqian looked at it for a while and then nodded and said, “You can use it this time. But you must not use it casually in the future.”
“That’s great!” Tan Mo subconsciously wanted to hug Wei Zhiqian.
However, when she realized that there were many people near Wei Zhiqian, she stopped herself.
“Let me watch. How do you use your healing powers?” He had always heard Tan Mo mention them, but had never seen it with his own eyes.
Tan Mo thus raised her hand and put it on her own shoulder.
After a short while, there was not a single mark on her shoulder.
She did the same action on the other side.
Wei Zhiqian knew how miraculous it was after he’d seen it for himself.
“Are you unwell anywhere else now?” Wei Zhiqian asked.
Tan Mo shook her head. “There isn’t much of an effect on me if I simply use only this little bit of my healing powers.”
“That’s good,” Wei Zhiqian said. “Have you finished changing?”
“Yes.” Tan Mo was so happy that her face was flushed. “It looks so good!”
“Quickly come out and let me see,” Wei Zhiqian said.
Who knew that Tan Mo would stay behind the door and deny him this pleasure. “I cannot let Uncle see in advance. You can only see it during tonight’s birthday celebration.”
Tan Mo saw Wei Zhiqian raise his brows, and she said, “It will not be a surprise if you see it now.”
After she’d finished speaking, she closed the door to the changing room, and Wei Zhiqian was kept outside.
