Chapter 320: A Magnificent Dress

Wei Zhiqian laughed and started driving.

However, after a while, Tan Mo realized that they were not driving in the direction of the holiday resort where the birthday celebration was taking place.

She looked at Wei Zhiqian questioningly, and he explained before she could say anything, “This is after all your 18th birthday. You are now an adult. Although you’ve only invited a few close friends for your birthday celebration and you’re keeping it low profile, you shouldn’t be too casual about how you dress. I had someone order an outfit for you for tonight. You can try it on and see if you like it. If you don’t like it, then you can choose another one.

Qin Muye was left speechless after hearing what he’d said from the back seat.

If Wei Zhiqian could retain a fraction of the attention that he gave to Tan Mo and use it on other women, he would have had a girlfriend by now.

Qin Muye couldn’t help lowering her head and secretly sending a message to Ming Yeqing. “I never knew that Wei Zhiqian was so meticulous.”

Ming Yeqing smiled and replied, “Yes, he is meticulous, but you have to take into account who is the object of his intentions.”

Qin Muye responded, “That’s true. Other than to Mo Mo, I have never seen him paying much attention to anyone else.”

The store that Wei Zhiqian drove the trio to was the same one where Tan Mo had bought her dress for the Tulip Awards ceremony.

Tan Mo had made a deep impression on the store clerk. Now, with Wei Zhiqian’s presence, the clerk recognized them immediately.

“Mr. Wei,” the store clerk greeted him, “Ms. Tan and Ms. Qin are also here.”

Qin Muye had also come to this store before with Dong Hanbi, so the store clerk also recognized Qin Muye.

Only Ming Yeqing had never shopped in this store.

Mrs. Ming knew that he would be bored shopping in a ladies clothing store and thus had never brought him along when she went shopping.

However, if he was with Wei Zhiqian, Tan Mo, and Qin Muye, the store clerk realized that Ming Yeqing couldn’t be ordinary.

“The clothes I ordered have arrived, right?” Wei Zhiqian asked.

“They have arrived. Please have a seat, and I will bring them out now,” the store clerk said and immediately went to retrieve them.

Another store clerk served them beverages.

A colleague accompanied the store clerk to retrieve the clothes. “I’m dying to see how the dress designed by the head designer from our headquarters looks.”

“Me too.” The clerk was also looking forward to it. “The dress was delivered yesterday, and it was kept under lock and key. We were not allowed to see it beforehand.

“That young lady is too lucky. I remember the previous time when she came to our store to buy dresses, and her father wanted to buy two. This time, Mr. Wei specially contacted the head designer of our company to design a dress for the young lady.

“This treatment is usually reserved for couture designs where only one piece is produced,” the clerk said as she pulled out a drawer with the help of her colleague.

When the dress had been sent over via air freight, it had been packed directly in the drawer and sent that way.

There was even a code on the drawer.

The store manager first used the key that had been sent over with the drawer to open a box, retrieved a code from the box, and then sent the code to headquarters.

Then a new code from headquarters was received before they got the actual code of the drawer.

This sequence of actions was completed in front of Wei Zhiqian.

It was proof that this dress was first opened and viewed today in front of Wei Zhiqian, the customer who had ordered the dress.

Before this, no one knew what the dress looked like.

The store manager personally opened the lock to the drawer and pulled out the drawer.

The two young ladies, Tan Mo and Qin Muye, were stunned.

“It is too beautiful!” As the young princess of the Qin family, Qin Muye was considered to be knowledgeable.

However, when she saw this dress, she was stunned by its beauty.

The store manager introduced the dress. “The head designer of our brand found out that the owner of the dress was going to be Ms. Tan, an 18-year-old young lady from the Hua Empire, and she specially added embroidery elements from the Hua Empire.

“The shoulder straps of this dress were completely made with embroidery and fall from both shoulders to form an inverted V. This part was embroidered totally by hand. We specially invited a famous embroidery master from the Hua Empire to complete it.”

The embroidery looked like floating ribbons and started from both shoulders before they converged in front of the chest. They meandered from the top of the dress and spiraled downward, like hundreds of blooming flowers.

“The overall color palette is a pale pink, to signify that the young lady has just come of age, and the tenderness of girlhood has yet to fade. It is a stage of incomplete growth, similar to delicate and tender flowers,” the store manager explained.

“We took into consideration that it is the young lady’s 18th coming-of-age birthday, and she would need to wear something formal, so we chose to use a long train,” the store manager continued. “Our clerks will now pull the curtains and switch off the lights.”

Everyone was shocked. It seemed that this dress still had more extraordinary features.

After pulling the curtains, not a single ray of light entered from outside.

However, the lights in the store were still switched on.

As the store manager counted down from three, the lights in the store were switched off all at the same time.

In the store, which was shrouded in darkness, only this dress in front of them was shimmering.

The dress was emitting a light glow from the hem to the knee area.

The light glow caused the hem of the dress to look translucent.

Most transparent at the hem, as one looked upward, the light became a bit duller, and the dress became less transparent.

Even the light was designed in a gradually changing manner.

Even the original pale pink of the dress gradually changed color… From the hem’s translucent bright pink to a fleshy pink…

And the other areas of the skirt did not lose their brilliance because of the darkness.

The already magnificent embroidery was emitting small spots of light, which had a star-like glow.

It looked like diamonds had been crushed and sprinkled on the dress.

Two store clerks were standing at different sides of the drawer and were currently pulling the drawer to change the angle several times.

This way, the angles of the dress were also changing.

Along with each change of the dress’s angle, the diamond-like glow of the embroidery also changed in size.

After this showcase, the lights in the store were switched on again.

The store clerks drew the curtains open.

The store was filled with light again.

The store manager explained, “The dress is grand. As the lady is young, the designer was worried that if it was too glamourous, it would suppress the young lady’s youthfulness and cause an undesirable effect. So he added this feature.

“If there is a spotlight at night that casts a light on the dress, the glimmer of the dress will be more obvious, and the dress will have a higher degree of transparency. At the birthday banquet, Ms. Tan will definitely cause a large surprise if she enters under a spotlight.

“You can imagine Ms. Tan wearing this dress under the spotlight, with the dress gradually changing transparency and glimmering starting from the hem. Due to the light, the heels hidden by the hem can also be seen. If she wears a shiny pair of heels, complemented by the glimmer of the dress’s hem, it will have the effect of stepping on a river of stars.”

The two young ladies, Tan Mo and Qin Muye, were mesmerized by the description.

“I want to go home and ask my brother if he has prepared a surprise for me!” Qin Muye couldn’t wait to ask Qin Mufeng if he had contacted the designer of this brand to design a dress for her too.
