Chapter 103: Attending The Dinner Together
Lu Xiao had not met a customer like Jiang Xuecheng before. It was only an off-shoulder gown!
Jiang Xuecheng shifted his vision to Lu Xiao, who was chattering nonstop. He darted cold glances at her, making Lu Xiao who wanted to continue persuading, very uncomfortable.
Lu Xiao immediately remembered Jiang Xuecheng’s identity as the CEO of Di Chen Group. With his status, how dare she continue to complain.
She shot a glance at Su Wan, as if seeking help, and then stepped backward with a dry smile. She quickly said, “Young Master, if you are not satisfied with this gown, do continue looking around. You may find one that is more suitable.”
Su Wan knew Lu Xiao was in a difficult position. She looked at the shop owner sympathetically. Then, she looked at the handsome figure in front of her.
“Xuecheng, all the gowns are similar. Let’s take this one.”
Jiang Xuecheng walked around to carefully examine the gowns in the shop. He stared at Su Wan and his voice was cold as he said, “We’ll take this one, then.”
This tone of voice sounded reluctant…
Su Wan sighed at her husband’s strong possessiveness. Jiang Xuecheng then walked toward a dress form with a gown on it.
What was he going to do?
Su Wan’s eyes were as soft as flowing water. She looked at the beige gown. It had a unique design but at the same time, it was more revealing. She could not believe Jiang Xuecheng would take fancy to that gown.
Jiang Xuecheng had not, in fact, taken fancy to that gown. His long and fair fingers stretched out to take the yarn shawl from the dress form.
When she saw Jiang Xuecheng walking with the white shawl toward her, Su Wan’s eyes widened.
When the tall figure came near her, Su Wan’s guess was proven right.
Jiang Xuecheng gently draped the shawl on her body!
He really hoped not a bit of her skin got exposed. This perception was too conservative…
Su Wan rolled her eyes secretly and had unspoken criticism about Jiang Xuecheng. He, on the other hand, was satisfied with what he had done. His initial displeasure had been wiped off.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng speechlessly. He was standing straight and his dark eyes were looking back at her.
Both their gazes met and both were silent.
“This shawl is quite nice. Drape it on when you attend the dinner.”
Jiang Xuecheng spoke first. It should have been a tone of discussion, but it allowed no questions.
Su Wan was lazy to go against his wish. So, she might as well agree.
Lu Xiao saw their gesture and wiped away the sweat on her forehead. She explained, “Young Master, that shawl is not sold by piece. It comes with the gown.”
“Then, I’ll pay the price of two gowns.”
Jiang Xuecheng waved his hand and when he spoke, he did not even look at Lu Xiao. He obviously did not care about such trivial things.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao was secretly overjoyed. Where could she normally find such generous customers? Today, she had struck two deals at one time!
She couldn’t help asking, “Young Master, do you want me to wrap the beige gown up as well?”
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Lu Xiao impatiently as he answered, “No, just the shawl.”
Lu Xiao was even happier!
She liked customers who were bold, generous, and not fussy about details!
Su Wan’s eyes moved slightly. She had actually wanted to bring the beige gown home but did not expect her husband to not think of money as money. When she saw the happy shop owner, Su Wan swallowed her words.
Should she restrain Jiang Xuecheng in the future?
However, Jiang Xuecheng obviously knew how to make rather than spend money. She’d better not be conceited.
After that, Jiang Xuecheng dragged Su Wan for styling, as if he wouldn’t give up if she was not styled to be the most eye-catching lady tonight.
Su Wan sat there for the stylist to work on her for half a day.
To match Su Wan’s plain white gown, the makeup artist gave her light makeup, making her skin appear light and natural.
Su Wan stood up and looked at herself in the mirror. The person in the mirror was in a trance for an instant.
Her black hair was tidily tied up behind her head into a clean bun with a white jade hairpin by the dexterous fingers of the makeup stylist.
She had to admit that her reflection in the mirror was indeed very beautiful.
What seemed to be simple makeup had made her sit on the chair for more than two hours!
Su Wan stared at the beautiful image in the mirror and felt her neck and shoulders ache. It’d be better to have less of this because it was torturous!
When informed that Su Wan’s makeup was done, Jiang Xuecheng, who was waiting outside, came in.
When he saw Su Wan’s charming face, he couldn’t help being stunned although he was familiar with Su Wan’s looks.
He walked up to her quickly and took out a white pearl necklace from his pocket. He carefully put the necklace on.
The pearl necklace on Su Wan’s delicate neck looked even more beautiful but Su Wan looked pale.
“Are you tired?”
Su Wan massaged her shoulders and nodded honestly. “I sat here for a long time and I couldn’t move. Now, my legs feel numb and my shoulders are sore. You’d better not take me to such events in the future.”
Jiang Xuecheng smiled and stared at Su Wan with sparkling eyes. “But your cousin sister’s engagement party is in a few days…”
To defeat one’s enemy, one had to be more dazzling. So, Su Wan had to go through today’s torture once again.
Su Wan froze but very quickly, she had a better plan. “I don’t want to. For the party, I’ll dress casually and you will be responsible for looking good!”
A charming smile appeared on Jiang Xuecheng’s face when he heard this, “Alright, alright, you just have to look pitiful during the engagement party. I’ll seek justice for you.”
Su Wan bared her teeth and glared at him. “I don’t know how to look pitiful! Let’s go, Mr. Jiang.”
She had not forgotten that her identity tonight was as Jiang Xuecheng’s subordinate and not his wife.
Feeling pleased, Jiang Xuecheng smiled. “Miss Su, you can really act!”
Su Wan rolled her eyes and opened the Koenigsegg Agera R’s door and took the initiative to sit in the co-driver’s seat.
Jiang Xuecheng got onto the car and stepped on the accelerator. The black Koenigsegg Agera R zoomed toward their destination speedily just like an arrow leaving the bow.

It was six in the evening and the International Exhibition Center in S City was bustling with people.
A silver Pagani drove in slowly and stopped steadily at the doorway.
When the car door was opened, a tall man appeared, followed by a beautiful lady wearing a single shoulder strapless evening gown. This couple was handsome and pretty, and they were known as the dragon and phoenix of the human world.
The eyes of the crowd were instantly attracted…
It was Gu Zihang and Su Yurou.
