Chapter 471: Chapter 471
At that moment, on the other side, Leng Lingxiao was walking with Tang Xiaowan in the garden, basking in the sunlight.
He didn’t mention the phone call he had just had.
However, the more he avoided it, the more Tang Xiaowan felt compelled to speak up, as if she was hiding something guilty.
"Huahua, Li Zishen said Du Jiahao had returned to the country, so he called to ask," Tang Xiaowan could no longer keep it to herself, smiling as she spoke.
Leng Lingxiao stopped in his tracks, raising an eyebrow, "What, worried that Wang Junchen will cause trouble for you?"
"Psh, with you here, I am not worried at all."
"Du Jiahao is a professional killer."
"With his little skills? Nah... not even close to being a bother for you," Tang Xiaowan said, then looked at Leng Lingxiao with admiration.
Leng Lingxiao accepted the compliment naturally. The hand holding hers tightened a little more, and a barely concealed pleasure flickered across his handsome face.
He knew he was her hero, always an invincible presence.
"Huahua, why is Old Zhao here?"
"Maybe the meal is ready."
They saw Zhao Renjie approaching quickly, delivering a black cell phone to Leng Lingxiao with utmost respect.
"Master, there’s news from Huang City."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaowan’s eyes lit up.
"Everything is going smoothly, but it’s a bit odd, Jiangbei has gone to Country Y, Wang Junchen has not left the house since he woke up, Qin Feng is inspecting the pharmaceutical factory’s production line with the Jiang siblings, flying to Country D at one in the afternoon."
It was sent by Ding Hui, accompanied by photos including Ye Wanhua going to Nanfeng Mansion.
"She really went out, went to see Grandma and Grandpa! Is she staying for lunch there?" Tang Xiaowan asked excitedly after reading.
Leng Lingxiao nodded, "Definitely."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Meijuan’s call came, and Tang Xiaowan quickly answered it.
"How is it going, smoothly?"
"Miss, your method is really effective, everything is progressing very smoothly," Wang Meijuan replied excitedly.
"Ye Wanhua didn’t say anything, did she?"
"No, Mrs. Wang is really nice, not only cooperative but also helping to cover for us. The items have already been sent out by Cheng Shi, and the old lady is currently making snacks with Mrs. Wang and the old master."
About the identification, although Ye Wanhua didn’t hold much hope, she was still willing to have her blood drawn.
She really liked Tang Xiaowan.
"Good, don’t rush to leave, spend more time with Grandma so it doesn’t blow our cover."
"Yes, Miss, don’t worry."
It turned out the people she sent were also up to the mark.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaowan’s mood was extremely complicated because the difficult wait was next, which would be very painful no matter the outcome.
Sister Wanhua, could you be my mother?
Did Wang Junchen tell the truth? That you are Li Zishen’s mother... Did she set you up?
And stole what was supposed to be yours!
No wonder so much had happened recently... Wang Junchen was avenging you.
"Little one, feeling relieved now?" Leng Lingxiao smiled as he gently brushed Tang Xiaowan’s nose, but his eyes were filled with concern and pity.
"Huahua, I’m hungry."
"By the time I finish eating and choose a wedding dress, will the results be in from Huang City?"
Leng Lingxiao’s eyes deepened, "Yes."
He knew Tang Xiaowan was too nervous, so she wanted to eat to relieve her stress, which is why he specifically arranged to try on wedding dresses after the meal.
Only by keeping her busy and filling her schedule could he divert her attention.
"That was quick! Actually, it’s pretty fast!"
"Eat a couple more pig’s feet later, trying on a wedding dress can be a bit tiring, if not, take a nap first, refresh, and then head over."
"When will the official shooting take place?"
"Up to you, but... the sooner the better."
Following him, Zhao Renjie couldn’t help but sigh softly: alas, the lady is quite pitiable!
At one-thirty in the afternoon, Glamour Bridal.
The boutique was elegant and luxurious. Through the large glass windows, one could clearly see the many beautiful and varied wedding dresses on display.
Each had been meticulously designed, made from high-quality fabrics, and crafted by hand.
Especially on the third floor, where dozens of gowns designed by world-renowned designers were displayed, each radiated a unique charm.
To make Tang Xiaowan’s wedding dress selection enjoyable, Leng Lingxiao had specially brought Li Ruonan over.
At that moment, Tang Xiaowan was trying on an off-the-shoulder pure white wedding dress. It was embedded with exquisite crystals, and the skirt was layered, the delicate tulle combined with the soft lighting made Tang Xiaowan look very ethereal, like a fairy.
"I heard from Yiming that tomorrow you’re not only shooting on a yacht but also in a helicopter?" asked Li Ruonan as she sipped a yogurt, curious.
Tang Xiaowan smiled sweetly, "There’s also a motorcycle. Huahua says it’s more fun that way."
"Indeed, it sounds so romantic!"
"After you have the baby, you can take pictures with the baby too, a family of three could be fun too."
"What about you guys? When are you planning to have kids?"
The question nearly took Tang Xiaowan’s breath away.
Her face turned red at a visibly rapid pace, like a boiled shrimp.
"I’m only 20, and we just got our certificate half a month ago. I should wait until I am at least 25, maybe after I graduate from college... yeah, not any sooner than that."
A female shop assistant, arranging the skirt, was taken aback.
years old? No wonder she looks so young.
Handsome and wealthy husband, she is so lucky!
Meanwhile, another assistant helping Tang Xiaowan with her lace gloves also felt envious: indeed, it’s better to marry well than to be born well!
You see, this bridal boutique in the center of Chicheng City is one of the top international ones right now, each set carrying a hefty price tag.
Even the fitting fee could scare many people off.
"You might not be eager, but what about him... he’s already 30!" Li Ruonan stood up and handed Tang Xiaowan a piece of chocolate.
"Pssh, Huahua is not in a hurry."
"He’s not in a hurry? Leng Lingxiao is just being considerate of you, oh, the bliss of ignorance, look how pampered you are... absolutely heartless."
The two assistants exchanged glances: Leng Lingxiao?
That handsome guy wearing sunglasses who just walked by... is the chairman of Lingxiao Group?
No wonder the manager repeatedly instructed during the meeting that the afternoon’s customers were extremely prestigious and everyone should be cautious, speak less and work more.
My God, he doesn’t look anything like he does online, so handsome, and so young.
"How about this one, does it look nice?" Tang Xiaowan looked at herself in the mirror, first from the left, then the right, her cheeks turning pink again.
"Absolutely beautiful, like an angel!"
"I wonder if Huahua will..." Thıs content belongs to novᴇlfire.net
Watching Tang Xiaowan, blushing and shy, Li Ruonan felt like she was seeing her younger self.
At 20, she was also naive and full of anticipation for the future, sadly she hadn’t met her prince, Shen Yiming, back then.
A precious period of her youth was wasted.
A few minutes later, a black suit that matched Tang Xiaowan’s chosen wedding dress was delivered to the adjacent private room. The difference here was that it was all males, with the boutique manager personally attending to Leng Lingxiao.
"Not bad!" Leng Lingxiao said, satisfied.
He really wanted to rush over to Tang Xiaowan’s side to have a quick look but ultimately decided to keep his promise.
"Hey, you want me to... sneak some information for you?" Shen Yiming smirked mischievously and then pulled out his phone to call his wife, Li Ruonan.
Hearing this, the manager magically turned himself invisible.
