The person who came was the pupil of the old gentleman, the designer whom Lin Xiaowan and Huo Zheng had previously visited. The old gentleman had sketched three drafts, but he was out of town due to some matters so he sent his pupil to discuss the matter with Lin Xiaowan and Huo Zheng. He would also participate in the discussion via video call later.

As for the other person, she was an intern, a lively young girl.

Lin Xiaowan felt her head ache as she listened to the other party talk and circle some details on the sketch. When she was asked if they should start the meeting, she laughed dryly and did not let the other party call the old gentleman.

She said, “In fact, I think all of them look good. 1 don’t have an opinion about this, and I’m not very knowledgeable. Let’s just continue this discussion when Huo Zheng comes over.”

The young designer smiled when he heard this. He thought Lin Xiaowan was very cute. He chatted with her for a while and showed her other wedding gowns in the studio. Seeing that she was interested, he told her more about them.

The trio chatted happily, and the atmosphere was not awkward at all.

Assistant Song personally brewed tea for the two guests. In fact, this was not part of his job scope. However, he had been with Huo Zheng for a long time, and he knew very well that different people were treated differently. Moreover, since Lin Xiaowan was present, it was not appropriate for him to serve her as well.

Lin Xiaowan wanted the milk tea she had yet to finish so she said, “My milk tea is still in the office. If Huo Zheng sees it later, he’ll scold me. I better finish it…” Assistant Song added jasmine flowers to the tea and said, “I’ll add a little honey for you, Young Madam. It’s healthier for you to drink this. It’s also quite sweet…”

Lin Xiaowan liked sweet things. It did not matter if it was food or drinks. As such, she did not protest and nodded.

Huo Zheng’s meeting was an impromptu one. It was not very long, but it was not short either. When he finally came to the reception room, about an hour had already passed. He took a seat next to Lin Xiaowan and exchanged pleasantries with the other party.

Huo Zheng was thirsty so he took a sip from Lin Xiaowan’s cup. Immediately after that, he frowned slightly and said, “So sweet?”

Lin Xiaowan had added a lot of honey in her tea. She gestured with her hand to show that she had only added a little bit of honey and said guiltily, “I only added a little bit of honey… It’s because you don’t really eat sweet things so you feel like the tea is very sweet. In fact, it’s not very sweet at all…”

Lin Xiaowan spoke very confidently as though it was true.

Assistant Song asked Huo Zheng what she wanted to drink, but Huo Zheng waved his hand and told him to get off work.

Huo Zheng looked at the time and asked the young designer and the intern, “Are both of you busy after this? If not, why don’t we talk over dinner?”

After all, the discussion would take a while, and Huo Zheng did not want to delay Lin Xiaowan’s meal.

The young designer shook his head, “No, I’m quite free.”

After that, Huo Zheng accompanied Lin Xiaowan to his office to get her bag. When he entered, he saw the milk tea on the coffee table. Since there were other people around, he did not say anything about this matter. However, he did glance at her.

Lin Xiaowan giggled and feigned ignorance.

Huo Zheng held her bag with one hand and held her hand with the others when they left.

It was very common for people to discuss business over dinner. However, when Huo Zheng learned that the old gentleman would be participating in the discussion via video call, he felt that it was a little inappropriate to let the other party watch them eat.

In the end, Huo Zheng decided to make the video after they finished dinner. As such, after discussing the details of the wedding dress and the changes to be made, it was already quite late.

After the discussion, the old gentleman, who was wearing a pair of presbyopic glasses, chuckled and said, “Alright. I’ll make the changes to the dress according to our discussion today. After that, we’ll discuss details such as the lace, pearls, diamonds, and the like.”

Apart from the white wedding dress, Lin Xiaowan also had a few other dresses made. There was also a traditional one. Apart from that, the old gentleman also designed another simpler dress for Lin Xiaowan. She would be wearing the second dress after the main ceremony in the morning was over to entertain the guests during the reception. The dress fell to her calves. It was sleeveless, and the neckline was round.

In fact, Lin Xiaowan still needed an evening gown for the banquet at night. However, she felt that the dress did have to be custom-made. It was fine to buy a ready-to-wear one.

There was still more than half a year left before the wedding so there was no rush. As such, Lin Xiaowan said, “There’s no rush. You can take your time.”

The old man removed his presbyopic glasses and said, “Even if you want to rush it, you won’t be able to. The dress is embroidered by hand, after all… In fact, compared to the traditional one, the white dress is easier to make…”

The traditional wedding dress would be embroidered with the noble pattern of a red phoenix facing the sun. There were also small embroideries of auspicious symbols and of butterflies flitting around a hibiscus. It looked lively and cute and did not look too solemn. Apart from that, it would also match Huo Zheng’s traditional wedding attire. The two sets of traditional wedding attire were woven with red and silver thread. All in all, they were luxurious and magnificent.

After a week, Huo Zheng finally approved the layout of the venue. Since the venue was not in the county, the team of wedding planners had flown there to have a look first. They would be decorating the venue according to Lin Xiaowan’s preference, which was a floral fairytale theme. After looking at the venue, they had a better idea of how to set up the place. As expected of the professionals Huo Zhen hired, the draft itself was already very beautiful and exquisite.

In fact, Huo Zheng felt that it was a little too flashy, but Lin Xiaowan really liked it. As such, he could only nod and agree. However, he was still very strict and controlling when it came to the small details.

One day, the Huo family gathered at the old residence.

Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao were about to start school again, and they pestered Lin Xiaowan to help them with one of their homework. They had to draw a picture each and decided to draw Little Chestnut.

While Lin Xiaowan helped them draw the picture, they played with Little Chestnut, chasing it. It did not take long before the cat’s fur began to fly in the air.

When the two brothers went downstairs to look for fruits to eat, Little Chestnut meowed at Lin Xiaowan. It was as though it was scolding Lin Xiaowan for not helping it earlier when it was chased by the two brothers.

Recently, there were not many live broadcasts of Little Chestnut. There would only be live broadcasts when it was eating, and most of the time, this matter was dealt with by Aunt Wu.

When Lin Xiaowan, who was drawing, saw Little Chestnut meowing at her angrily, she casually stroked it and said, “What a fierce kitten…”

Little Chestnut meowed again in response..
