Chapter 455: Chapter 446 Jiang Lingxi’s Vision
Early in the morning, Jiang Lingxi received a message from Yun Chan, inviting her to the presidential suite for breakfast.
It also reminded her not to bother with makeup or choosing her own clothes for the fashion show, as a stylist and outfits had already been prepared.
Jiang Lingxi was delighted not to have to fuss over herself. After a simple wash-up, she left with Lu Zhengzheng and Changning.
They happened to run into Shen Chuyue, who was just about to knock on their door.
Beside Shen Chuyue was another person, with long hair and a delicate appearance. At first glance, one might think it was a young lady, but Jiang Lingxi immediately saw that it was a man.
The next moment, Shen Chuyue introduced, "Sister-in-law, this is Yu Ruibai, now the chief designer of Shanyue Zhiheng. I brought him over to gain some insight."
When Yu Ruibai heard his boss refer to Jiang Lingxi as ’sister-in-law,’ his pupils shrank in shock. Coming back to his senses, he quickly greeted politely, "Ms. Jiang, it’s a pleasure to meet you."
Jiang Lingxi didn’t miss the surprise in his eyes just now and nodded slightly, replying, "Hello."
The five of them took the elevator to the top floor, led into the presidential suite by a waiting butler.
Yun Chan was already seated on the sofa in the living room, with several subordinates listening intently to the arrangements for the big show.
Seeing Jiang Lingxi and the others come in, she motioned with her chin and pointed to the dining room, indicating to wait for her there.
Jiang Lingxi nodded and led the group into the dining room first.
Soon after they sat down, Yun Chan came rushing in.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Shen Chuyue quickly waved his hand, "Sister Yun is in charge of the big show, and it’s about to start today. You must be very busy, we understand."
Yun Chan smiled, "Let’s eat first. I’ve been busy all morning and am really hungry."
Jiang Lingxi glanced at the dining room entrance, "Where’s Yun Yi?"
"Not awake yet." Yun Chan frowned slightly, "I asked the doctor, and she suggested not to wake him up. Never mind, let’s eat first. He won’t starve when he wakes up."
"Maybe his memory will return when he wakes up."
"Let’s hope so."
After finishing their meal and leaving the dining room, they saw several more people in the spacious living room, along with two rows of clothes hanging on mobile metal racks.
Jiang Lingxi looked through the added people and clothes, her gaze finally settling on someone who stood up from the sofa, "Yun Ping."
Yun Ping nodded with a smile, "I’m in charge of makeup and styling for this big show. I heard you’re here too, so I came over to say hi. I’m also responsible for your look at today’s show."
"Then it’s my pleasure."
She had already encountered Yun Ping’s skills previously on the set of "The Empress of Yuan Zhao."
Four words were enough to describe it: Impeccable!
Time was tight, and Jiang Lingxi soon found herself in front of a makeup mirror temporarily set up in the living room.
Sitting next to her was Shen Chuyue, with Yu Ruibai handling her makeup.
"Who would have thought my little Yu is such a versatile talent, adept at both makeup and design?"
Flushed with the compliment, Yu Ruibai’s face turned red immediately.
"Boss, please don’t praise me like that. In front of Teacher Yun, I wouldn’t dare say I can manage it with ease."
Just the makeup and hairstyle took nearly an hour, and just when it came time to choose clothes, Yun Ping was hurriedly called away by a phone call.
"There was a small mishap backstage at the show."
Jiang Lingxi nodded to show she understood. With an event this big, involving hundreds or even thousands of people, minor mishaps were to be expected.
"Go handle it quickly."
Yun Ping left quickly with an assistant.
Shen Chuyue called Yu Ruibai back, who was about to choose her outfit, "I happen to need someone else. Little Yu, you also help choose one for sister-in-law."
Yu Ruibai glanced at Jiang Lingxi’s already complete styling, didn’t dare look too long, and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Lingxi initially thought about choosing herself, but seeing that there was someone to do it for her, she continued to sit.
There were dozens of outfits on the two racks. After a detailed review, Yu Ruibai selected two outfits.
A light blue mermaid dress, which he handed to Shen Chuyue, "Boss, try this one."
The other was a moon-white strapless jumpsuit, adorned only with embroideries of orchids winding up the side waist, "This is the one I chose for Teacher Jiang."
Jiang Lingxi raised an eyebrow as she looked at the outfit handed in front of her and thanked him as she accepted it.
Lu Zhengzheng, standing beside them, watched and hesitated to speak.
When Jiang Lingxi and Shen Chuyue went to a nearby empty bedroom to change clothes, Lu Zhengzheng followed as an assistant before quietly asking, "Sister Xixi, don’t you think this one is a bit too revealing?"
The strapless style in the front was alright, but the back of this outfit was held together with just a few thin silver chains and ribbons.
If it were the older Sister Xixi, she wouldn’t have said anything more.
But she felt that the current Sister Xixi might not like this type of clothing, which was beautiful yet overly revealing.
Shen Chuyue saw Jiang Lingxi studying the outfit intently, "Sister-in-law, don’t be misled by how easily Little Yu blushes, his design style is quite bold; there’s a fair bit of contrast. This outfit is certainly revealing, but I think it really suits Sister-in-law. A good figure should be shown off!"
"But the show is outdoors today," Jiang Lingxi thought for a moment about the clothes she saw earlier, then instructed Lu Zhengzheng, "Go and get the yellow long-sleeve shawl at the edge of the rack."
"Okay!"
Lu Zhengzheng quickly returned with the yellow shawl; Jiang Lingxi changed into the jumpsuit that Yu Ruibai had selected, then draped the shawl over herself.
Shen Chuyue watched as the glowing beautiful back disappeared under the covering fabric. Just about to say something, she saw Jiang Lingxi turn and look at her.
In an instant, she swallowed the words she was about to utter.
If the person beforehand, without the yellow shawl, was sexy and elegant,
then after adding this shawl, not only did it not detract from the overall beauty, it added more of a regal and precious aura.
Clothing and makeup are just enhancements; the most important thing is the person herself.
The person in front of her undoubtedly embodied this phrase perfectly.
"Shall we go?"
Jiang Lingxi went first, opening the door just as Yun Chan emerged from the opposite bedroom.
Yun Chan’s eyes flashed with amazement when she looked up and saw Jiang Lingxi already styled and dressed.
"You actually matched those two pieces of clothing together."
She had prepared the clothes herself and hadn’t expected those two pieces could even be worn together.
But there was no denying, it was bold and spectacular.
Jiang Lingxi: "It’s cold outside."
Yun Chan: "..." There really wasn’t any countering that.
Liangchuan, located further north, was always several degrees colder than the Imperial City.
Plus, with the current fashion show being outdoors due to a larger venue, even with sunlight, it would be cold if dressed too thinly.
Shen Chuyue touched his bare arms, wondering if he should follow his sister-in-law’s example and add something too?
"Was this Yun Ping’s choice?"
Though she asked, Yun Chan felt it might not have been; thus, she inquired anyway.
"There was a small issue at the show, and Yun Ping went to handle it. Yu Ruibai chose the inner piece, and I picked the outer one myself."
"As expected," Yun Chan couldn’t help but smile. "If you weren’t an actress needing to be on set, I would have tried to recruit you."
She and Yun Ping are sisters, and even though they’re both busy and don’t often see each other, they communicate well and haven’t missed Yun Ping’s occasional complaints.
Though those stars may look glamorous in front of people, most have no taste at all, relying heavily on well-paid stylists to handle them from head to toe daily.
The ones with good taste were like rare gems.
But now, just by choosing this yellow shawl, which perhaps most wouldn’t choose, it’s clear that Jiang Lingxi’s sense of style, even within the entertainment circle, is quite discerning.
What’s rare is that such an outfit, possibly difficult for an average person to pull off, only enhances Jiang Lingxi’s innately unique charisma when worn by her.
Regal, and sovereignly elegant.
If she had only worn the inner piece, beautiful as it was, it might have seemed somewhat unfit for this person’s aura.
Simply put, the clothes would not have outshone the person.
She really did feel a little talent-lovelorn.
