Chapter 665: The Great Gift Sent by Fire Phoenix
As Mengyao’s secretary, Du Xueqi contacted Chen Yingyu through the official channels of Chu Group.Such a trivial matter naturally falls within Du Xueqi’s duties, and she naturally had to be busy with it.
When Chen Yingyu first took on the business of designing the wedding dress, she was quite pleased, thinking arrogantly to herself: "Even if you are the number one powerful woman, or the famous President Chu, or even the renowned ice beauty of Huaxia, what does it matter? The wedding dress you wear is still designed by me, Chen Yingyu."
With this thought in mind, Chen Yingyu was quite proud.
At the same time, she was full of a sense of challenge, wanting to perfectly design a wedding dress. Although she had designed many classic wedding dresses, she had never designed one that could be considered a classic for someone at the level of President Chu.
In front of her seemed to stand a towering Mount Everest, and she vowed to conquer it, harboring a challenging mindset to complete the wedding dress design.
The reputation of President Chu was simply too great. Chen Yingyu suppressed that feeling of honor, displaying her arrogant air and spread the word widely within her circle, saying that she was going to design a wedding dress for this number one powerful woman.
Instantly, it caused a sensation within Chen Yingyu’s circle. Countless people regarded just seeing President Chu as a golden opportunity, the first among women and a powerful woman at that, which many aspired to yet never had the chance to fulfill.
Chen Yingyu had no qualification to engage with the upper echelons of the Northwest Business Community, so naturally, she did not know that now in the Northwest Business Community, the Chu Group was dominant, with the five major families all becoming vassals. Her arrogance stemmed from her belief that the Chu Group could not rival the five major families, thus bringing her unjustified satisfaction and pride.
If she were to know the status of the Chu Group, she would definitely be scared out of her wits, and respectful she would be, without this kind of mindset.
Then, what made Chen Yingyu afraid to meet President Chu?
The cause had to do with the five major families.
After Du Xueqi contacted Chen Yingyu, in the midst of her arrogance and joy, the five major families sent her a simple message.
"If you cannot create an astounding wedding dress for President Chu, then you might as well die." This was the advice given to Chen Yingyu by the five major families, scaring her senseless, to describe her heart pounding like a drum is no exaggeration.
The five major families dared not intervene in the engagement of Ye Fan and Mengyao, but regarding the already decided matter of designing a wedding dress, they could not stand to remain idle and issued a good-natured warning. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Moving within high society, Chen Yingyu serves others. On the flattering side, she carries a reputation as a renowned domestic wedding dress designer with the accolade of first place, yet at the not-so-flattering side, she was at the whim of the wealthy, unable to offend, catering and flattering to satisfy them in return for some reward.
Some people, no matter how much she fawned over them, had no chance to meet, and some people she looked down upon, the five major families belong to the former.
"There’s a saying circulating in the underworld that if the five major families want someone dead, then they’ll have to die."
"What virtue or ability do I have to be remembered by the five major families?"
"I’m just a small figure, not fit for the stage."
"It all because of the number one powerful woman, what kind of capabilities does this President Chu have that makes the five major families act like minions in secret?"
"The Northwest Business Community belongs to the five major families, not the Chu Group, after all."
With such thoughts, Chen Yingyu pondered in full bafflement.
She was especially conflicted now, terrified of meeting President Chu, the pressure was immense, yet she had no choice but to meet President Chu for fear the five major families would retaliate, leading to her demise.
When the five major families speak, it’s certainly not a joke.
After careful consideration, Chen Yingyu adjusted her mood before heading to her destination.
However, the anxious fear remains intense, impossible to conceal.
.....
At the same time, Dongfang City Airport.
Two beauties with typical Western appearances alighted from the plane, instantly causing a sensation and clamoring among the crowd.
These two beauties were already very beautiful, Western beauties at that, attracting the attention of both men and women, as well as airport staff.
"Wow, Western beauties, even more stunning than actresses who could perform in a movie naked," the commotion was inevitable, and discussions ensued, with some even having their masculine hormones stirred.
The source of the astonishment was, of course, that someone recognized the identity of the two women.
"She is the international chief wedding dress design master, Lillian!"
"She is world-renowned, undoubtedly the number one in the wedding dress industry, and indeed the world’s undisputed first person!"
"Why has she come to Huaxia, it makes no sense!"
"She once said that the East is the abandoned land of the wedding dress industry, having never produced a world-class creation, even subpar Western wedding dresses being more perfect than Eastern ones. To that end, she swore never to set foot on the abandoned land of the wedding dress industry in her lifetime, deeming it a desecration of her wedding dress career."
"How could such a person come to Huaxia?"
"Impossible, it’s not logical."
Those who recognized Lillian’s identity were struck speechless with shock.
Lillian and her female assistant, under all the attention, finally exited the airport.
The two had their brows furrowed tightly, deeply concerned.
They were naturally unhappy because they were threatened to come to Huaxia.
Their purpose, naturally, was to design a wedding dress for Mengyao.
Certainly, they were not invited; this much was evident.
After getting into the car, Lillian said with displeasure: "This trip is simply the greatest insult to my character. I swore I would never set foot on this land that has never produced a world-class wedding dress, but now I had no choice but to succumb and compromise."
"That presence has spoken, and we have to be cautious. Any oversight could bring disaster," the female assistant cautioned nervously.
Lillian, too, paused with realization, her eyes filled with deep unease and fear.
All feelings of discontent instantly vanished, replaced with solemnity and restraint.
Remembering the presence that had threatened them to come to Huaxia, the two were fearful to the core, not daring to say even half a word of complaint, and their expressions became reverent.
"Serve the master well like a slave," this sentence was engraved in their minds, echoing continuously.
Lillian and her assistant understood that in the presence of Ye Fan and Mengyao, they must maintain a slave mentality to satisfy their master, otherwise, the consequences would be dire.
This gift from across the Pacific Ocean was brought by Fire Phoenix.
