Chapter 128: Short Dress
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xi Wan said, “There’s a solution now, that is to make this long dress into a short dress.”
Zhao Hui was a little surprised and asked, “How can we change it?”
“The red wine is only stained on the hem of the dress. You just have to cut off that part of the dress.” Xi Wan said.
“But this will be different from the original design.” Zhao Hui was still hesitant.
“I can’t wear this dress stained with red wine to attend the celebration, right?” Xi Wan said.
When Xi Wan saw that Zhao Hui was still reluctant, she went to the dressing table to get a pair of scissors. She bent down to cut the hem of her clothes and then ripped it open. The dress that originally reached her ankles instantly reached her knees.
She then used scissors to trim the messy threads, and the dress was completed.
Xi Wan looked at herself in the mirror. “The short version looks pretty good too. ”
Zhao Hui acknowledged Xi Wan’s taste but this was different from what he had designed. As the original designer, he still felt uncomfortable.
However, this was the only solution now.
Yun Xiu’s original smugness was replaced with frustration.
How could Xi Wan always think of a solution?
Yun Xiu was unwilling to give up. She walked over and said, “Xi Wan, this is my uncle’s hard work that he’s been working on for a few nights. How can you change it just like that? ”
“What else can we do? You were the one who splashed the red wine on it.” Xi Wan turned to look at her and said, “It’s fine if you can’t think of a solution, but are you going to reject my idea?”
“I told you I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ve already apologized to you.” Yun Xiu said.
“What’s the use of apologizing? It’s not as if the dress will return to its original appearance.” Xi Wan said, “This is the best solution so shut up.”
As she spoke, Xi Wan brushed past Yun Xiu and went to Zhao Hui’s side, “Mr. Zhao, is it okay for me to do this?”
At this point, Zhao Hui could only nod and say, “No problem.”
He then arranged for a car to bring Xi Wan and Yun Xiu to the celebration venue.
The reporters were already waiting there and had been taking photos ever since Xi Wan got out of the car. Xi Wan walked all the way to the innermost part under the bodyguards’ escort.
The reporters swarmed over.
After the speech, Xi Wan stood there and let the reporters take a few photos. They then cut the ribbons and the celebration ended.
After the celebration ended, they had to accept a few interviews according to the usual practice.
The reporters gathered around and pointed their microphones at Xi Wan. “Miss Xi Wan, Alice has already posted a notice online. Looking at the design, this dress should be a long dress so why are you wearing a short version today?”
Xi Wan replied, “I temporarily changed this dress into a short one because of some issues that cannot be resolved.”
“Miss Xi Wan, there are a lot of rumors about you on the internet. They say that you’re having an affair with a director. Is that true?”
Asking such a question at a celebration like this was truly an act without emotional intelligence. Furthermore, the rumormonger, Yun Xiu, was right beside Xi Wan.
The other reporters thought that Xi Wan would be embarrassed but she looked meaningfully at Yun Xiu and said, “The reporters are asking a question. Do you want to explain anything to them?”
This time, Yun Xiu was the one feeling awkward. “The reporter is asking about you, not me so why should I explain anything?”
“You’re the one who started the rumor.” Xi Wan said, “You told the netizens that I had an affair with the director. Now, you’re refusing to explain when the reporters are asking questions about it.”
“When did I say that?” Although Yun Xiu had always had the temper of a young lady, she also knew that if she admitted such a thing under such circumstances, it would leave a huge impact on her reputation.
Although she had indeed said those words before, it had been a long time since then. There must have been other people commenting and suppressing what she had said.
She did not believe that Xi Wan could find those words that she said.
However, Xi Wan took out her cell phone and found a few pictures, saying, “Although it’s a marketing account, this screenshot shouldn’t be fake.” Xi Wan said, “This profile picture is yours and the name is also yours. Are you still not going to admit it?”
Yun Xiu was so scared that her face turned pale. She did not expect that a marketing account would screenshot the words she said, and post them.
“This isn’t me. Someone else is impersonating me.” Yun Xiu stammered as she explained, “I’m a public figure so I’ll naturally pay attention to my words and actions. How could I say something like that?”
“But you were the one who posted the original thread.” Xi Wan mercilessly exposed Yun Xiu’s lie. “Stop pretending and explain everything.” She put her cell phone away and crossed her arms.
Xi Wan was determined to embarrass Yun Xiu in front of the media..
