Chapter: 3252

"Ah?" Chen Duo Duo was taken aback and had some mixed emotions before saying, "Auntie, there's no need to go through all this trouble if it works well. I can just buy it myself in the future."

Lin Wan Qiu smiled and said, "You're still being so polite with Auntie? This matter is settled then. Don't push me away or make Auntie feel like an outsider."

Chen Duo Duo listened to this and could only nod her head before saying, "Thank you, Auntie. Then I'll just follow your instructions from now on!"

Lin Wan Qiu nodded and then told Gu Qi Yin, "Little one, we're about to go to the airport. Your dad thinks you've been too exhausted today, so I'll tell him that you should rest well at the hotel tonight and not bother us again late at night."

"Don't," Gu Qi Yin hurriedly said, "I'm just getting ready to take off my makeup and then follow you all back. Right now, I don't feel tired at all, and it's more meaningful for me to go home and sleep well than to stay with you all tonight."

Lin Wan Qiu gently touched her face, asking softly, "You revealed your deep emotions at your own concert tonight. Don't you want to see how Chen Duo Duo reacted? Why don't you stay another night and maybe we can meet with Chen Duo Duo tomorrow?"

"No, no," Gu Qi Yin smiled and said, "I'm afraid of causing a commotion like that without warning Leaf Chen Gege ahead of time. I'm even more worried about scaring him. So I'll just head back home to calm down first before seeing him again."

Lin Wan Qiu shook her head in exasperation, saying, "You little girl, you're so bold and reckless. You're afraid of facing Leaf Chen Gege after doing all that?"

"Oh, mom, you know my skin is very thin," Gu Qi Yin said in a flutter, "I've been nervous about this for many days, and even now my back is still sweating with anxiety. I don't want to see Leaf Chen Gege at all right now... just let me go home and hide out for a bit."

"This kid..." Lin Wan Qiu shook her head again, saying, "Okay, okay. You hurry up and take off your makeup, put on some comfortable clothes, and I'll tell your dad. We'll wait for you in a bit."

"Thank you, mom!" Gu Qi Yin smiled happily and kissed Lin Wan Qiu's face.

...

Ten minutes later, with her everyday outfit changed, Gu Qi Yin sat down with her parents to take a taxi to the airport.

Gu Qi Yin chatted with her mom, Lin Wan Qiu, all the way.

Lin Wan Qiu, as a woman, had many questions she wanted to ask Gu Qi Yin. However, her first question was, "Little girl, when did you and your parents decide on this wedding dress?"

Gu Qi Yin smiled happily and said, "Mom, do you know Vera Wang?"

"I know," Lin Wan Qiu nodded. "Isn't that the independent brand of Chinese designer Wang Meimei? These years, it's really popular in Europe and America. Even former US President Clinton's daughter wore a wedding dress designed by her when she got married. Your wedding dress is also from her, isn't it?"

Gu Qi Yin laughed. "She had announced earlier that she was retiring and would no longer design wedding dresses personally. However, I had asked her to come over from America a few months ago to take my measurements, and then she personally made the dress for me."

Lin Wan Qiu laughed. "You're really quite bold, asking someone who has retired to help you with your wedding dress."

Gu Qi Yin spoke sincerely. "Mom, to be honest, I didn't think she would agree to do it at first. Although her assets are not as high-end as those of the top aristocratic families, the people she normally associates with are all high-ranking officials and wealthy businesspeople in America, many of whom also commission wedding dresses from her. Even these aristocratic families couldn't get her to personally come out of retirement. So, I didn't think I could even ask for her help."

Gu Qi Yin paused slightly before continuing, "But this time, she was willing to come to China to take my measurements and make the dress for me because she knew that I am An Ah-ji's chosen daughter-in-law."

Lin Wan Qiu was astonished. "You mean King Meimei came because of your mother-in-law's reputation?"

"That's right," Gu Qi Yin said. "I had originally just paid her a deposit to have one of her designers create a high-end wedding dress for me, but I didn't expect her to come in person......"

"In reality, I was quite astonished at the time and didn't understand why she would come in person. I asked her and only then did I know that she and Ah-jie's mother have been good friends for many years......"

"And besides, when Leaf Chen's older brother visited America to see Ah-jie during his childhood, she even saw him and knows our family's relationship with Ah-jie's family." JrNovels.com
