After ending the call, Lin Xiaowan went upstairs to look for clothes. Apart from the clothes that she wore daily that were stored in the bedroom on the second floor, the rest of her clothes were stored in the large walk-in wardrobe on the third floor. The clothes there were beautifully arranged like those in a clothing store.

Lin Xiaowan video-called Huo Zheng and told him that she was attending the gala with Gu Yuwu. She also told him that she was about to pick a gown and asked for his suggestion.

Huo Zheng glanced at the weather forecast and said. “The temperature is going to be about 1 to -5 degrees Celcius later…”

“Gu Yuwu said it’d be very warm inside…”

Huo Zheng frowned. ‘How warm can it be?’

Lin Xiaowan looked away when she saw that Huo Zheng did not seem too happy. Her eyes landed on a short and strappy dress that was decorated with white feathers hanging in the glass cabinet. She walked over and took the dress out before she asked, “What about this one? It seems warm, right?”

The chest area of the dress was decorated with feathers. The waistline was tightly gathered, and it was embellished with small diamonds to form a swan. The skirt of the dress was also decorated with white feathers.

Huo Zheng did not think that the dress looked warm at all. It exposed her arms and shoulders, and the hemline did not even reach her knees. The feathers were only decorations and did not have any warming effect at all.

Lin Xiaowan could tell that Huo Zheng was unhappy with her choice so she returned the dress to its original place with a regretful expression on her face. She rather liked the dress, after all. She did not know where the feathers came from, but they were soft to the touch. Finally, she said, “Why don’t you choose one then?”

Huo Zheng was not satisfied with the dresses, but before he could think of an idea, his secretary brought a stack of documents in and informed him that the project manager was waiting for him in the meeting room.

Lin Xiaowan did not want to disturb him so she quickly told him to get back to his work. She promised to send him a picture of the dress she chose and assured him that she would not catch a cold before ending the call.

After ending the call, Lin Xiaowan looked at the white feather dress again. She took it out again, planning to change into it to see how it looked.

After changing into the dress, she looked into the mirror. The more she looked, the more she liked it. She tiptoed before nodding to herself, thinking that it would look even better with high heels. The high heels would make her legs look even longer.

When Lin Xiaowan changed back into her original clothes, her phone suddenly rang. She thought Huo Zheng was done with his work so quickly, but she discovered it was Qiao You’an when she answered the call.

Qiao You’an had found out from Gu Yuwu that they would be going out tonight. She knew that Lin Xiaowan would need a dress so she called to see if Lin Xiaowan needed a stylist.

“Xiaowan, have you already decided on what you’re going to wear tonight?”

Lin Xiaowan replied, “I really like this dress with white feathers, but Huo Zheng didn’t seem to like it very much. He said that it didn’t look very warm.”

Qiao You’an thought about Lin Xiaowan’s description of the dress for a moment before she asked, “Is the dress from A Brand’s Swan Collection?”

Lin Xiaowan was completely clueless. She was not knowledgeable in this matter, and there was no tag on the dress. After a while, she replied, “I don’t know…”

Qiao You’an tried to stifle her laughter but failed. At this moment, she and Huo Cheng were accompanying her children to a cooking class, and they were learning how to make glutinous rice balls. The teacher was in the midst of a demonstration, and she decided to hide in a corner earlier before switching the call to a video call.

Upon seeing this, Lin Xiaowan turned her phone around and showed Qiao You’an the feather dress.

Qiao You’an recognized the dress with just a glance. It was indeed the dress from Brand A’s Swan Collection. She said, “That’s a good choice, Xiao Wan. if you wear this dress, you’ll look beautiful just like a swan princess.”

Lin Xiaowan smiled proudly when she heard these words.

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan really liked the dress, Qiao You’an did not dissuade Lin Xiaowan. Instead, she said, “I should have a white shawl there that will look good with the dress. I usually wear it with a cheongsam in autumn or winter.”

Lin Xiaowan listened to Qiao You’an instructions and quickly looked for the shawl. She soon discovered that she had the same shawl in three colors: dark green, brownish-red, and silver-white.

“Try them all, and see which one looks the best.”

Lin Xiaowan set her phone down as she looked at the shawls, unable to decide between the red and white one. She said, “The red and white ones look nice. However, is red a little too eye-catching?”

“So what if it’s eye-catching? You’re so beautiful, after all. When people see you, they’ll definitely praise you,” Qiao You’an said before she suggested, “However, I think you should wear the white one. The red looks a little mature, and it might age you.”

“Alright!”

Lin Xiaowan did not have any objections at all. She tried on the clothes and looked in the mirror, feeling very happy. Perhaps it was because she had never worn such clothes before.

‘It really does look good,’ Lin Xiaowan thought to herself happily. She was very satisfied with how she looked. Her skin was flawless, her waist was thin, and her legs were long. She could not help but praise herself inwardly.

However, Qiao You’an was not done. She quickly arranged for her makeup artist to go over. She would hire this makeup artist as well before attending formal events. As such, she was confident that the other party would be able to help Lin Xiaowan with her makeup and hair.

Before ending the call, Qiao You’an said “You can use the big dressing room. Most of your things aren’t here yet, and I have everything you’ll need there.” “Alright,” Lin Xiaowan replied with a nod.

It did not take long before the makeup artist arrived.

When Lin Xiaowan was informed of the other party’s arrival, she checked the time and discovered that only an hour had passed.

The butler asked Lin Xiaowan where she would like to meet the other party, and she quickly said, “Bring him to the big dressing room on the third floor.”

The makeup artist usually did Qiao You’an makeup and hair in his shop or Qiao You’an’s private residence in the city. He had only been to the Huo family’s old residence once. This was his second visit, but he was still shocked by the size of the residence. From the time he entered the gates to the time he entered the house, it took ten minutes by car. The yard itself looked like a small park.

As the butler led the makeup artist to his destination, the makeup artist asked tentatively, “May I ask if my client today is the second Mrs. Huo?”

Qiao You’an did not reveal much over the phone so he was rather curious..
