Chapter 774: Chapter 774: The Astronomically Priced Wedding Dress_1

"Alright, miss, please follow me to the second floor; I’ll take you up to try some on," he said.

Qin Xiaowan knew she was indeed a bit anxious, so she changed to a more gentle tone and said, "Also, Miss Luo, why don’t you come up and have a look as well?"

Luo Ning, seeing the sincerity in Qin Xiaowan’s invitation and feeling quite tempted, nodded and said, "Mmm."

"Great!"

Excited by the agreement, Qin Xiaowan quickly led the two upstairs.

"Mo Han, come up too," Luo Ning called out, turning her head with a hint of shyness, "I want you to see me in a wedding dress."

Mo Han licked his lips and whispered, "Okay."

In an ordinary bridal shop, the rental price for a standard wedding dress ranged from 500 to 1500 yuan per day. If it were a celebrity-endorsed model or similar, prices started at a minimum of 3000 yuan.

Upon entering the second floor of Visha Studio, He Xiaohui didn’t start by looking at the styles. Instead, she went straight to check the prices.

At a glance, she was completely stunned.

"This... this expensive?"

He Xiaohui swallowed hard, quickly tugging at her best friend’s hand, whispering as faint as a mosquito, "Ning’er, shall we go to another place?"

The dresses here were indeed beautiful, each one resembling a work of art, but the prices were too high; the cheapest dress was in the six figures.

If she accidentally damaged one during the wedding, with her current finances, she couldn’t possibly afford to pay for it.

Keep in mind, the dress she had liked in Lu County was tagged at just 5000 yuan, with a daily rental fee of only 800 yuan.

At this moment, Luo Ning was so absorbed in admiring the dresses that she hadn’t yet noticed the prices below. She smiled and said, "Xiao Hui, go ahead and try some on. Miss Qin is a professional designer; she will definitely be able to help you find a suitable wedding dress."

"Ning’er, the dresses here are too expensive..."

With her head hung low and cheeks flushed red, He Xiaohui said, "I’m afraid to wear one."

Upon hearing the price, Luo Ning’s attention shifted to the nameplate in the lower right corner of the display window. One glance, and she too was taken aback.

780,000?

780,000 yuan?!

This...

Luo Ning finally understood her friend’s concern; if it were her, she would also be afraid to wear such an expensive dress.

"This is ’Beauty in Red,’ a piece I designed three years ago," Qin Xiaowan, observing both women focusing on the first dress in the display, began to introduce it with a smile. "It was right after I switched to bridal dress design. It wasn’t very mature; some details weren’t handled well."

"However, it won the Best Design Award at the Venice Bridal Festival. It’s also the only dress in my shop priced below one million. If you like it, Miss, I will give it to you."

Boom!

This statement was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Luo Ning and He Xiaohui completely stunned.

They had thought the dress was already expensive enough, but never expected it to be the cheapest in the shop, and that Qin Xiaowan was so willing to give it away without hesitation.

After a moment of thought, Luo Ning still asked the question that was on her mind, "Miss Qin, are you by any chance last year’s winner of the Global Wedding Dress Designer Award, Qin Xiaowan?"

"Yes, that’s me," Qin Xiaowan replied with a slight smile. "I thought you had recognized me earlier."

Hiss...

Luo Ning took in a sharp breath. It was indeed Qin Xiaowan!

No wonder the price is set so high, it’s no surprise really, the only Asian to win the global wedding dress design award—of course, the price is going to be steep!

He Xiaohui also seemed to dredge up the memory of Qin Xiaowan from the depths of her mind. She covered her lips with her hand, too excited to speak.

Qin Xiaowan giggled and then spoke, "Surprised?"

"Mm..."

Luo Ning nodded, "Miss Qin, with your talent, why not go back to Dragon City, or head to Feng City, Magic Capital, Xiang City, these places? Why choose a small place like Jiangnan City?"

Qin Xiaowan brushed her bangs aside, smiling, "The pace there is too fast for my liking. I prefer the slower pace of life in Jiangnan City, not to mention the cultural atmosphere and scenery here are quite to my taste, so I spent two billion to buy this store."

"Two... two billion?"

He Xiaohui was so astonished she could not speak; her mouth twitched slightly. Just because she liked the cultural atmosphere, she stayed in Jiangnan City and even spent two billion to acquire this store?

Mo Han, however, was not surprised at all. He had been bored and taken the opportunity to send a message to Ling Yuzhu inquiring about Qin Xiaowan’s background.

Qin Xiaowan had an impressive background, and even as a classmate, Ling Yuzhu didn’t know much. She only vaguely guessed that Qin Xiaowan must come from the Qin Family of Dragon City.

With the mention of the Qin Family, Mo Han came to understand.

Among the top five families in Dragon City, the Qin Family ranked second; it wasn’t surprising that they raised a remarkable person like Qin Xiaowan.

But why are all the women from this Qin Family so strong-willed?

The third Miss Qin, Qin Mei’er, in a fit of anger, divorced Ye Xuefeng and moved out of her husband’s house to live in Yanziwu.

Qin Xiaowan, who won the most coveted global design award, chose to settle in a second-tier city, with the only reason being her fondness for the cultural atmosphere of Jiangnan City.

"Come! Try it on."

Qin Xiaowan said with a smile, "This ’Graceful Beauty’ model is adjustable on the inside, so don’t worry about it not fitting."

As she spoke, she took the pristine wedding dress from the hanger and then, leading a bewildered He Xiaohui, went to the changing room beside them.

Five minutes later, He Xiaohui, wearing the pure and elegant wedding dress, walked slowly out of the changing room. Her face was tinged with blushes, and as she walked, she carefully held the hem of the dress, afraid to get it dirty.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

Mo Xiaochen watched and clapped her hands incessantly.

Luo Ning also teased her, "Xiao Hui, you look really beautiful in this wedding dress! Tomorrow at the hotel, Peng Ye definitely won’t want to blink."

He Xiaohui, blushing, said, "Ning’er, the wedding dress is indeed beautiful, but it’s too expensive. If by any chance..."

"Miss He, please rest assured; when I, Qin Xiaowan, make a promise, I stick to it. This wedding dress, consider it a gift from me."

Qin Xiaowan said with a slight smile, "It just so happens my shop hasn’t been open for long, and I could use the help of beautiful women like you to try on my designs and break into the market."

Then, she looked towards Luo Ning, and without saying a word, Luo Ning understood her meaning.

He Xiaohui hesitated for a moment, then bit her red lip, "But..."

"Xiao Hui, you’re getting married tomorrow, and you don’t have much time to choose. Let’s go with this one."

Luo Ning giggled, then said to Qin Xiaowan, "Miss Qin, once Xiao Hui’s business is settled, I’ll find time to model for you."

"But you can keep the pay."

Qin Xiaowan quickly grasped Luo Ning’s meaning; she nodded and said with a smile, "Alright! That ’Angel’ model should be fully complete in about half a month. I’ll contact Miss Luo then."

After saying this, she fished out her mobile phone from her pocket and said, "Shall we add each other on WeChat?"

"Sure!"

After leaving Qin Xiaowan’s shop, Mo Han found a five-star hotel and booked two sets of rooms.

One luxurious family room for himself, his wife, and Mo Xiaochen.

The other luxurious suite was meticulously decorated by the staff, to serve as He Xiaohui’s bridal chamber before her wedding.
