Lin Che walked out together with Gu Jingze.

When they arrived outside, Lin Che could not help but cover her mouth. Then, she laughed and said, “Seriously. We did such a good job of pretending just now. Look at his expression. I nearly died of laughter.”

Gu Jingze said, “Next time, don’t come to such places to buy clothes.”

Lin Che stuck her tongue out. “I saw all of them buying clothes from here. It seemed like a very famous brand, so I wanted to come and try.”

“Reputation that is built through sensationalism is usually meant to attract consumers who can’t reach the same level.”

Lin Che said, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re the only one with a good eye.”

“Of course. Come on. Since you want something grand, I’ll take you somewhere else.”

“Really?”

“Of course. Otherwise, are you going to stay here and argue with them?”

“I find it quite interesting too. Did you see their expressions at the end? I really almost died of laughter.”

Gu Jingze looked at her. “Silly girl. The next time you encounter something like this, you can immediately call for people to teach them a lesson.”

“That’s so boring.” Lin Che continued, “I just wanted to see what exactly they had in store at the end. Eh. Initially, I didn’t plan to do anything either. I just came to look at clothes. Who knew that these people would be so disgusting and insist on treating us celebrities with condescension? How does my status as a celebrity hinder them at all? We even bring so much joy to their lives. Right?”

Lin Che rested her head on her hand and said, “So I decided to teach them a lesson. There’s no harm to teaching such people a lesson.”

“That’s right. Next time, don’t let people bully you easily. Madam Gu doesn’t need to be bullied by others.”

“Definitely.” Lin Che smiled and hugged Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze took her directly to a store.

The people inside had much better att.i.tudes, and they all looked very professional.

They first took note of Lin Che’s height and weight. She also told them that she wanted to wear flats this time. She did not want to wear heels since she was pregnant. As a result, the requirements for the gown became much higher and increased in number as well. First, she had to look imposing wearing it without being limited by her flats. In reality, a gown like this was difficult to make too.

Thus, in the end, they still made a stylish long gown.

The designer first explained his idea to Lin Che. He looked at Lin Che’s figure and said to her, “To be honest, Madam, with a figure like yours, you will look very majestic no matter what you wear. But given the special nature of this event, we have specially designed a translucent gown. It feels a little like yarn, but the material we used isn’t yarn, but a very flowy material. This way, the gown will seem very smooth, and it will visually elongate the body. The shape of your legs is extremely beautiful. If their outline is slightly discernible, they will definitely look very beautiful. The gown will reach the floor. Even if you wear flats, people won’t be able to tell. When it comes to creating designs with such fabric, the main thing we pay attention to is elongating the body.”

Lin Che nodded. She did not have any thoughts about such design ideas, but she felt that the designer’s sketch looked very good.

She merely said a little unconfidently, “The person in the sketch has such long legs. It probably won’t look that good on me.”

The designer shook his head. “Of course not. Madam, your figure is great. Your legs are particularly long too. With your proportions, you can totally pull off any clothing. People with figures like yours are my favorite. Everything I design looks good on you.”

Lin Che smiled with her lips pursed. She could not tell whether he was saying this out of respect or whether these were his sincere words.

But even if he had said them out of respect, she felt quite comfortable listening to them too.

Once they were done ordering the gown, Lin Che and Gu Jingze left together and arranged to take a look at the sample a few days later.

As time was a little tight, and this guest was their most esteemed guest, the sample was rushed out in merely a few days.

Lin Che headed there to try the gown on. After wearing it, she realized that the designer was indeed very impressive. The gown fit her very well and her aura changed greatly when she was wearing it. The elongating effect of the gown was very obvious. Even when she was wearing flats, Lin Che looked extremely tall.

Lin Che looked into the mirror and was very satisfied. When she walked out, everyone was also immediately stunned upon looking at her.

But this was still their initial prototype. In the end, their creation would be much more exquisite than this.

Lin Che felt that having a dress custom-made was really quite troublesome. There was nothing she could do since this event was more important. She did not want to go to such trouble the next time. Furthermore, it looked as if she would have to spend a lot of money.

Lin Che was not the only one in the entertainment industry who was getting her gown ready. In reality, everyone was looking everywhere for their outfits too.

Some people had seen photos of Lin Che in the previous store and thought that she was going to custom-make her clothes there. Thus, many of the people who wanted to jump on the bandwagon went there as well to have their clothes made.

Initially, the staff in the store had looked down on Lin Che quite a bit. She felt that Lin Che did not have much experience buying clothes either and probably had bad taste. However, she did not expect that so many people in the entertainment industry would want to follow her example. So many people came to check the store out just because of a single photo of her.

Of course, their store had never clarified how the photo had come about or what had happened that day either. Anyway, they were selling clothes. If they wanted to buy, she would sell. She did not care about anything else. In the end, no one could blame them for not explaining things, since these people had never asked either.

In no time, the day of the award ceremony for the Golden Name Awards arrived.

Gu Jingze knew that today was a very important day. Still, he was also very worried that she would be too busy today and that her body would not be able to take it.

From early in the morning, he followed Lin Che around and repeatedly said to her, “Eat something.”

Lin Che appeared to be slightly nervous. As she had not attended such an important ceremony for a long time, she kept taking deep breaths to calm herself down.

Of course, she was unable to stomach even a few mouthfuls of food. She kept feeling as if she was already full. She was even worried that her stomach would protrude if she ate too much. Then, she would not look good in the gown later on.

She walked ahead to freshen herself up while Gu Jingze trailed after her and nagged.

When Lin Che was frustrated, she turned around and took a bite.

From early in the morning, the maids were tickled funny by the behavior of the married couple.

After many difficulties, Lin Che managed to wear her gown and dress herself up. Then, she told Gu Jingze that she was going out.

Gu Jingze said, “I’ll get my men to follow you.”

Lin Che hastily said, “I don’t think there’s a need. I have my own men.”

“After all, they have a lot of experience and it’s better to have more people around today.”

Lin Che said, “Alright. Send a few people then.”

Lin Che felt that it was better to listen to him at a time like this, lest he keeps nagging.

Gu Jingze said, “There’s no need to specially select people. Just let Little Three and the rest go with you.”

“Ah…” He was talking about the people who were always with him.

There were usually many people following Gu Jingze, but there were a few permanent ones who were extremely formidable. As their fighting skills, their experience, and their technique were all very impressive, and they were basically all-rounders, Gu Jingze thought very highly of them. He basically brought them with him all the time. If he allocated them all to her now…

“Then, what are you going to do?”

“It’s the same if I ask others to come with me.”

“I don’t want that. You should use them since you’re used to them. My event isn’t particularly important anyway…” She was going to attend an award ceremony. If she brought all the backbones of the Gu Industries with her, it would seem way too grand as well.
