Then she asked the shop assistant, "Do you have any limited editions? Or any special limited editions?" At that moment, the shop assistant replied, "Yes, we do have one. I think it would fit you both well." Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi quickly urged the shop assistant, "Then go get it quickly."
The shop assistant nodded and said "Okay," then went out to get the wedding dress. A short while later, the shop assistant returned. The wedding dress was in a cardboard box.
Seeing this, Chen Xiaoqi glanced at Li Lili beside her. Li Lili asked, "Why are we using a box again?"
At this moment, the sales clerk's explanation came through. "This wedding dress is by the famous designer Luck. She used to design clothes for big stars and rarely collaborates with bridal shops. This is her only wedding dress design, which we bought. It's become our store's prized possession, and we usually don't show it to others. We only brought it out because we saw that you two have great style and it suits you very well. Besides, we have the big star Chen Xiaoqi here. That's why our boss was willing to let you try it on." The sales clerk went on and on for a long time before finally finishing.
After hearing what the shop assistant said, Chen Xiaoqi began to think...
Chapter 229 The Boss's Plans
At this moment, Chen Xiaoqi smiled. She knew about Luck; he was indeed very famous in clothing design. They had approached Luck for a collaboration before, but the deal hadn't gone through.
Surprisingly, this retired celebrity still has some influence, as she even wore a dress by Luck designer for her wedding.
"Xiaoqi, why don't you go try it on first?" Li Lili said to Chen Xiaoqi. At that moment, the shop assistant opened the box, and when they took out the wedding dress inside, they realized it was indeed very nice.
The wedding dress in front of her was no longer so monotonous; instead, it was simple and elegant with some unique details. The entire design was perfect. The shop assistant led Chen Xiaoqi to the fitting room and began helping her try on the dress.
Just then, Li Ran called to say he had arrived. Guided by another shop assistant, Li Ran came to the store. "Sister-in-law," Li Ran greeted Li Lili immediately upon seeing her. This was the first time Li Ran had called Li Lili "sister-in-law." Since they were getting married, he needed to change his address to follow Chen Xiaoqi's style.
Li Lili seemed a little uncomfortable upon hearing Li Ran's address, but she didn't say anything. "You're here. Wait a moment. Xiao Qi is changing inside and should be out soon," Li Lili said, gesturing for Li Ran to come and wait.
Just as Li Ran sat down on the sofa, he heard Chen Xiaoqi's voice. Chen Xiaoqi slowly walked out from inside. She was as beautiful as a figure in a painting.
"Wow, Xiaoqi, you look so beautiful!" Li Lili exclaimed, looking at Chen Xiaoqi. "Li Ran, am I pretty?" Chen Xiaoqi smiled after hearing Li Lili's words and then turned to ask Li Ran.
At this moment, Li Ran was completely captivated by Chen Xiaoqi's beauty. He stammered, "Beautiful, beautiful." Li Ran's reaction was obvious; he was practically drooling.
Chen Xiaoqi, dressed in the Luck designer's gown, looked absolutely stunning. Simple, elegant, and beautiful. The dress perfectly showcased the highlights of the design.
Then Li Ran said, "This one." After Li Ran finished speaking, the shop assistant said, "This garment is not for sale." Li Lili didn't understand what the shop assistant meant.
So he asked, "What else can we try on if it's not for sale?" "I asked the boss, and he said that actress Chen Xiaoqi is here. That's why the boss agreed to let us try it on. As for whether we can make an exception and sell this non-sale item, it depends on the boss's decision."
After the shop assistant finished speaking, she called the boss. The boss said he would come over for a face-to-face meeting later. Then Chen Xiaoqi went into the fitting room to change back into her own clothes and said, "Okay, let's wait and see. Sister-in-law, let's go look at bridesmaid dresses. You'll be my bridesmaid." Li Lili nodded after hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words.
Then he said to Li Lili, "Okay." Bridesmaid dresses are not as difficult to choose as wedding dresses. As soon as Li Lili got to the wardrobe of bridesmaid dresses, she took a liking to a dress.
So he asked Chen Xiaoqi, "What do you think of this one?" Chen Xiaoqi looked at the dress in Li Lili's hand, nodded, and said, "It's beautiful. You'll look gorgeous in it. Go try it on." As soon as Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, Li Lili went inside to try it on. A little while later, Li Lili came out and said, "It looks pretty good. I'm quite satisfied." Chen Xiaoqi looked at Li Lili's dress and was also very pleased.
"Yes, sister-in-law, this dress suits you perfectly. You have fair skin and are beautiful; you look good in anything." Chen Xiaoqi was telling the truth, because Li Lili was indeed a beauty. "Ah, okay, then I'll take this one." Li Lili immediately took a liking to the dress and didn't want to look at any more. After all, she was very satisfied with the dress she had in her hand.
"This bridesmaid dress will do. We don't need to ask your boss for permission, right?" Chen Xiaoqi said with a hint of bitterness. "No need for that one. I'll wrap it up for you," the shop assistant said, taking the dress from Li Lili's hands.
Just then, the shop owner came over. "Chen Xiaoqi, nice to meet you." The owner greeted Chen Xiaoqi as soon as he entered. "Hello," Chen Xiaoqi said calmly, looking at the man in front of her.
The man before them was a man with a large belly, around forty years old, and balding. Just then, the shop owner spoke again, "Have you taken a liking to this dress?" Before Chen Xiaoqi could answer, Li Ran spoke up.
“Yes, this is the dress. The sales assistant said it’s not for sale. Let’s discuss it and see if there’s any way we can transfer it to them.” Li Ran said this while facing the shop owner. The shop owner turned to look at Li Ran and said, “It’s not about the money. Since Miss Chen likes it, I’m happy to give it to her.”
"I just don't know if Miss Chen would be willing to do me a small favor." The boss began to state the purpose of his visit. Chen Xiaoqi then asked, "What kind of favor?" After speaking, Chen Xiaoqi looked at Li Ran and Li Lili.
The shop owner then revealed his purpose. "This dress is our store's prized possession and we don't plan to sell it. However, if you want to wear it on your wedding day, we would be happy to, but I'd like you to help us advertise. You know what I mean?"
Upon hearing the shopkeeper's words, Chen Xiaoqi understood what he meant. "Of course I'm willing, but as you know, I've retired from the entertainment industry, so there won't be any news about me." Chen Xiaoqi pointed out the problem: even if she were willing, it wouldn't make any difference. "You don't need to worry about that. Just agree to our terms." Then, the shopkeeper readily told the employee beside him, "Quickly, pack it up for Miss Chen."
The shop assistant quickly took the wedding dress and wrapped it up. The shop owner then glanced at the bridesmaid dress in Li Lili's hand and said, "This bridesmaid dress is a gift for you too." After readily agreeing, the shop owner turned to Chen Xiaoqi and said, "We'll put your wedding day photos on the official website." Hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi nodded and said without saying anything else, "Then we'll head back now." The shop owner then prepared to take Chen Xiaoqi and the others home.
Chapter 230 A day apart feels like three autumns
Chen Ling was immediately overwhelmed with work as soon as he arrived at the company. He'd been so busy with family matters lately that he'd neglected work. As soon as Chen Ling arrived, Liu Yuyang started telling him about recent company projects.
"Someone from the library said that the efficiency of those studying there has significantly improved." They already knew about what Liu Yuyang was talking about. Chen Ling then said, "If we have the ability to help them, we should do more to help them. We are satisfied as long as they speak well of us."
"Things are different now, isn't it? Maybe it's because of Goddess Shen's influence?" Liu Yuyang began to speak. At this moment, Chen Ling heard his words and felt quite helpless. Everything seemed to involve Li Lili. Then Chen Ling's voice rang out again: "You really can drag her into everything. What's wrong? You're not used to me when I don't brag?"
"Haha, you know what, it really is." Liu Yuyang said, looking at Chen Ling's smug expression.
Joking aside, work is work. Liu Yuyang started talking to Chen Ling about other tasks, and Chen Ling, upon hearing this, said, "Okay, then you follow up on that." Chen Ling then handed over these tasks to Liu Yuyang. These were all very ordinary projects, requiring no special attributes.
This was also Chen Ling's idea. Chen Ling felt that the company had been in the spotlight recently and wanted to keep a low profile for a while. So he took on many ordinary projects.
Liu Yuyang quickly finished his work report. Just then, Chen Ling's voice was heard. Chen Ling began to ask, "Liu Yuyang, how are things between you and Chen Mengyao now?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuyang said, "That's great. We're both fine, and we're in the honeymoon phase."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ling continued, "Don't let your romance interfere with your work."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't be like that person," Liu Yuyang said after hearing this. Chen Ling muttered to himself, "That person? It's just me, isn't it? That person."
Just then, Chen Ling said, "That's good. Work hard."
"Alright, I'm not going to waste any more time with you. I'm going out now," Liu Yuyang said.
After Liu Yuyang left, Chen Ling resumed reviewing some documents. Suddenly, he remembered that Li Lili had accompanied Chen Xiaoqi to try on wedding dresses earlier that day. So, Chen Ling picked up his phone, intending to call Li Lili.
"Hello, Chen Ling," Li Lili said after receiving the call.
"Well, Xiaoqi, are you done with the test?" Chen Ling had just finished speaking when Li Lili's voice came: "Yes, I'm done." Li Lili said calmly.
"So how do you feel? Aren't you excited?" Chen Ling began to imagine Li Lili in her wedding dress. He couldn't help but smile.
"Haha, yes, a little bit. Looking at Xiaoqi's expression, I have some thoughts in my mind." Li Lili didn't hide anything and told Chen Ling directly.
"Haha, don't worry, we'll have our day too," Chen Ling said to Li Lili.
"Mmm." Li Lili smiled shyly after hearing this. She began to imagine herself and Chen Ling trying on wedding dresses, and a warm feeling filled her heart.
"Haha, we'll have it too, don't rush. We'll get married once you regain your memories," Chen Ling told Li Lili, revealing his plan. Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately asked Chen Ling, "Why do we have to wait until I regain my memories? Can't we do it now? What if I never regain my memories?"
“If you can’t regain your memories, you still have to get married. If you want, you can get married now. But I want to wait until you regain your memories and are a complete you before we get married,” Chen Ling said, expressing his thoughts.
"Oh, I see." After hearing this, Li Lili didn't say anything more. She was simply wondering what those lost memories were. She was now incredibly curious about them.
Li Lili was lost in thought when Chen Xiaoqi suddenly said, "Hey, sister-in-law. What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing, your brother called me," Li Lili said calmly after regaining her composure.
"It's good that you're alright," Chen Xiaoqi said calmly.
Just then, Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, and Li Lili said, "Haha, it's okay, are you almost home?"
After Li Lili finished speaking, Chen Xiaoqi's voice was heard: "Yes, we're almost there." Chen Xiaoqi looked out the window as she spoke.
Li Lili missed Chen Ling terribly at that moment. She was anxious to see him as soon as possible. Chen Xiaoqi then took out her phone and texted Chen Ling, "I miss you so much."
Upon seeing the message from Li Lili, Chen Ling immediately called Chen Xiaoqi.
"Hey, what's wrong, sweetie?" Chen Ling said hurriedly after getting through to Li Lili on the phone.
"Oh, it's nothing." Li Lili felt very satisfied when she saw Chen Ling rushing around.
"Where are you now? I'm coming to find you." As soon as Chen Ling said this, Li Lili was moved to tears. She could only nod repeatedly, unsure of what to say next.
"Where are you?" Chen Ling asked anxiously again at this moment.
"I'll be home soon," Li Lili said to Chen Ling after calming herself down.
After telling Li Lili to wait for him, Chen Ling hung up the phone and immediately rushed home. He had already begun to lose control of himself after hearing Li Lili's words.
Not long after, Chen Xiaoqi and the others arrived home. As soon as Li Lili got out of the car, she saw Chen Ling waiting for her at the door. Upon seeing Li Lili return, Chen Ling immediately rushed towards her and hugged her tightly.
Li Lili was held tightly by Chen Ling, making it hard for her to breathe. Then she heard Chen Xiaoqi's voice, who said, "Oh dear, what's going on? You missed me so much after just a short time? It really is true that a day apart feels like three autumns. The scary thing is that it hasn't even been a day yet. And it's already starting?"
After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, she nudged Li Ran beside her and said sourly, "Look at other people."
Then they saw Li Lili, shy like a little woman, burying her face in Chen Ling's arms.
Chapter 231 Women Should Be Praised More
After Chen Ling and Li Lili had finished being intimate, Chen Ling said, "Okay, okay, let's go. Let's go upstairs first." So they went upstairs together.
"You're back? How did the wedding dress fitting go?" As soon as they entered the house, Chen's mother, who was sitting in the living room watching TV, asked. "Ah, it went well. Mom, that's not the point. The point is, my brother and sister-in-law were so worried when I didn't see them for a while," Chen Xiaoqi said excitedly.
Seeing this, Li Lili became embarrassed. Then Chen Ling spoke up, saying, "What's wrong? We're good friends, and you're still not convinced, right, Li Ran?" After saying this, Chen Ling didn't forget to turn his attention to Li Ran.
At this moment, Li Ran said, "Yes, you and your sister-in-law have a good relationship, we're envious." No sooner had Li Ran said this than Chen Ling continued, "Xiao Qi, don't hint like that. Li Ran doesn't understand. If you want your relationship with Li Ran to evolve into something like Ning Xue's and mine, just tell him directly. Don't make him guess. Men can't understand women's thinking." Chen Ling's words left Chen Xiao Qi speechless.
Chen Xiaoqi rolled her eyes at Chen Ling, then said listlessly, "Fine, I don't want to talk to you anymore. Mom, let me show you the wedding dress." As she spoke, Chen Xiaoqi reached for the wedding dress in Li Ran's hand. Just then, Chen Ling noticed another dress in Li Ran's hand and went over to take it as well, knowing that this must be Li Lili's bridesmaid dress.
When Chen Xiaoqi took out the wedding dress, her mother couldn't stop praising it. "This wedding dress is so beautiful. It will look even better on you," Chen's mother said, and it wasn't an exaggeration at all. "Yes, Auntie, Li Ran watched Xiaoqi try on the wedding dress," Li Lili said, recalling the scene with Li Ran earlier.
Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling imagined Li Ran's situation, then thought of himself. He wondered if he would feel the same way when he saw Li Lili in her wedding dress. Perhaps. "Yes, no wonder they say a girl's wedding day is the most beautiful day. It's true," Li Ran said casually.
"Li Ran, am I not pretty normally?" The speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart. Chen Xiaoqi quickly asked after hearing Li Ran's words. They both laughed. "Li Ran didn't mean that," Chen's mother explained on Li Ran's behalf. "Yes, Xiaoqi, in my heart, you're beautiful no matter what," Li Ran quickly added, echoing Chen's mother's words.
Then they heard Li Lili and Chen Ling laughing. Just then, Chen's father, who hadn't spoken until now, said, "The wedding dress is all picked out, but have you chosen the venue yet? You young people should decide on the wedding style. See what kind you like, and don't forget any of the little details." Chen's father's words were concise and to the point. At this moment, Chen's mother chimed in, "Yes, you should discuss it together. A wedding is a big deal. If you really have any disagreements, remember to consult with us elders." Hearing their words, Li Ran quickly agreed, saying, "Okay."
After chatting for a while, Mrs. Chen said it was almost lunchtime and she would go cook dinner, inviting Li Ran to stay. However, Li Ran declined, saying, "Auntie, no need, I'll be going home soon. My parents are still at home; I need to go back and have dinner with them, otherwise they'll have to make do with what they have." "Alright then, you can go home now. I won't keep you," Mrs. Chen said.
So Chen's mother went to the kitchen to cook, and Li Lili followed her. After chatting for a while, Li Ran prepared to leave. "Xiaoqi, don't bother seeing me off. I can go down by myself. Otherwise, you'll have to come back up, which is too much trouble for you," Li Ran said to Chen Xiaoqi, who had also gotten up with him.
When Chen Xiaoqi heard Li Ran say he was going back, she got up to see him off. "Okay, then you can go back by yourself." Chen Xiaoqi said as she sat down after hearing Li Ran's words. "Okay, then I'll go back first, Uncle, Brother, I'll go back first." After saying goodbye to Chen Xiaoqi, Li Ran also said goodbye to Chen's father and Chen Ling.
After hearing Li Ran's words, Mr. Chen told Li Ran to be careful on the road and to text Chen Xiaoqi when she got home. After Li Ran had passed, they heard Chen Ling's mocking voice. Chen Ling chuckled and said, "You really aren't polite at all. I told you not to see me off, and you just sat down." Chen Xiaoqi was speechless after hearing Li Ran's words.
Thinking to herself, "Li Ran already said not to bother her, so why is she still going down there?" Although Chen Xiaoqi thought this, she was too lazy to explain anything to Chen Ling. Not wanting to argue with Chen Ling anymore, she said helplessly, "Watch your TV."
After saying this, Chen Xiaoqi picked up her wedding dress and prepared to go back to her room. After Chen Xiaoqi left, only Chen's father and Chen Ling remained in the living room. Then, Chen's father's voice could be heard as he asked Chen Ling, "How's your company doing? I haven't seen you busy with work lately."
“Well, these are all unimportant projects lately, which I’ve handed over to Liu Yuyang. There’s been a lot going on at home lately, with Xiaoqi getting married, but don’t worry, everything’s fine.” After Chen Ling finished speaking, he looked at his father with a determined gaze.
Just then, Mr. Chen said again, "These things can be left to Xiaoxue and your mother from now on. Men should be busy with their own careers. You can't be of much help here." After Mr. Chen finished speaking, Chen Ling quickly agreed and said, "Okay."
Then Mr. Chen continued, "Let me ask you on behalf of your mother, when are you and Xiaoxue planning to get married? Your sister's getting married soon, you two need to hurry up, you're the older brother after all." Hearing Mr. Chen's words, Chen Ling glanced at the kitchen and then said, "Ningxue hasn't fully recovered yet." Mr. Chen didn't say anything more after that. A little while later, Mr. Chen started speaking again.
Chapter 232 A Man Who Is Completely Obedient?
Just then, Chen's father said again, "What about Xiaoxue's parents? When should we meet them? That way we'll have some idea of what's going on." Seeing Chen's father speak again, Chen Ling thought of Li Lili's family. He didn't say anything, but simply agreed.
Just then, Mr. Chen stopped talking and continued watching TV. Chen Ling, on the other hand, was thinking about the matter. He wondered if he should meet Li Lili's mother, since Li Lili had been awake for so long but hadn't mentioned her family. He didn't know what to do.
As Chen Ling was lost in thought, he heard Li Lili's voice calling them to come over for dinner. So Chen's father and Chen Ling went over to eat. As Chen Ling arrived, he didn't forget to call out to Chen Xiaoqi.
At the dinner table, they were still talking about Chen Xiaoqi's wedding. Chen's mother said, "Li Ran's family rarely comes over. Why haven't they said they'd see us again in the past few days? Xiaoqi, have you seen his family yet?" "No, they're probably busy! I don't know." After hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi thought for a moment and then said calmly.
After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, her father's voice came through. He said, "He's probably busy. But it's true." "Alright, Mom and Dad, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else," Chen Xiaoqi interrupted her father.
Seeing this, they stopped saying anything. Then they began to chatter on about the guest list. And so, the meal passed quickly. After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms, knowing tomorrow would be another busy day.
