Chapter 65 – However, you had to be very careful when your opponent was Lu Beichuan (1)
Ye Zhen looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a long, white wedding dress. With her long, black hair draped behind her back, her elegant, slender, swan-like neck could easily be seen. The concave of her clavicle looked sexy and beautiful. The tight waist of the wedding dress exquisitely showcased her slender waist and curves. It looked as if at any moment, a pair of butterfly wings could come out from the open back wedding dress.
Even the professional that was helping Ye Zhen put on the wedding dress couldn’t help exclaiming in admiration, “Mrs. Lu, you have such a good figure. This wedding dress suits you especially well. Mr. Lu has such a good eye.”
Ye Zhen slightly smiled. She wouldn’t take words like these too seriously. It wasn’t possible to tell if it was empty flattery or heartfelt praise.
Was there any woman that wasn’t beautiful when she was wearing a wedding dress?
The professional lifted up the bottom of the wedding dress and opened the door. Everyone that had been sitting on the couch couldn’t help but straighten up and look towards Ye Zhen. Gasps and sighs came pouring in.
Mother Lu got up and walked to Ye Zhen. After looking her over from top to bottom and front to back, she sincerely praised, “My daughter-in-law is so pretty! Beichuan, what do you think?”
Lu Beichuan was standing at the side, but there was no expression on his face. The smile in his eyes was well-hidden by him, so he appeared as if he hadn’t batted an eyelid at the sight of Ye Zhen in a wedding dress. He deeply looked at Ye Zhen and only lightly murmured his agreement.
Not getting the enthusiastic answer she wanted from Lu Beichuan, Mother Lu went to ask Ye Qing, “Zhenzhen, look at your sister and brother-in-law. Don’t they look like a well-matched couple? Aren’t they just perfect for each other?”
It felt as if Mother Lu had thrown a knife straight into Ye Qing’s heart with these words. Clearly, she was the injured party, and yet, she had to pretend as if everything was okay. Grinding her teeth, she swallowed down the words she really wanted to say.
With a stiff face, Ye Qing squeezed out a few words, “Yeah, they’re well-matched.”
Mother Lu nodded in satisfaction. “We’ll go with this wedding dress. There’s no need to try the other ones.”
The professional immediately acknowledged Mother Lu’s words.
Lu Beichuan took a call. Surprisingly, the contents of the call caused the normally unflappable Lu Beichuan to deeply furrow his brow. It looked like he was plagued with a thorny problem.
Seeing that Lu Beichuan was distracted with his call, Ye Qing went forward, affectionately held Ye Zhen’s hand, and said, “Older sister, I’ll go help you change out of your dress.”
Lu Beichuan saw this.
Mother Lu stopped Ye Qing by saying, “Zhenzhen, stay here. Your older sister is just changing clothes. You don’t need to go with her.”
Ye Qing came to a mental halt. Although she was 100% unwilling, she couldn’t refuse Mother Lu in front of everyone. With a small smile, she dragged her feet as she approached Mother Lu. “Aunty, did you want me to come over for something?”
Although Mother Lu had disapproved of “Ye Zhen’s” relationship with that illegitimate child, she genuinely liked her daughter-in-law. If you cared about someone, you would like everyone that they were connected with. Thus, she looked at “Ye Zhen” somewhat favorably. Anyways, these wedding dresses had already been brought over. She might as well browse through them with her daughter-in-law’s younger sister.
“Zhenzhen, even though I don’t like your boyfriend, I understand how you feel. I was young once too. For you to be willing to run away from home to be with Li Zhen, it shows that you genuinely like him a lot. I heard that you’ve been dating him for three years? With the type of feelings the two of you have, marriage is bound to happen sooner or later. Anyways, these wedding dresses have already been delivered here. Why don’t you pick one out and try it to see if you like it?”
In all fairness, Lu Beichuan truly had an ingenious eye for beauty. In a single glance, he had chosen the most exquisite wedding dress that was also the most suitable one for Ye Zhen.
Out of all the wedding dresses, Ye Qing liked the one that Ye Zhen was wearing the most. If she was given an option to try a dress, she would have definitely picked that one. But, that dress was obviously reserved for Ye Zhen. What did they mean by having her choose from Ye Zhen’s leftovers?
All the way until now, it had always been Ye Zhen that took her leftovers. When she no longer liked a certain piece of clothing, she would toss it to Ye Zhen. When she was no longer willing to use a certain type of skincare product, she would toss that to Ye Zhen too. She had grown accustomed to the idea of throwing away anything that she no longer wanted to Ye Zhen. But now, she was suppose to accept Ye Zhen’s leftovers?
She couldn’t accept this. In her opinion, this was humiliating!
