Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 804 - Best of luck.

Since there has been no time to do alterations, Feng Yi Lan has helped the dress on Li Xue with a few pin drapings which Li Xue was trying her best to carry on the stage, without letting anyone know about it.

But just when she had covered half-way of the ramp, her steps almost paused in her tracks when felt one of the draping opening on her sides. Her pupils dilated for the shortest second but just before anyone could notice it on her expressions, a gentle smile covered her lips, dazing everyone around while her hands went to press over both her h.i.p.s on the sides, revealing the confident side of the dress.???

The audience looked at her and then at the dress. No doubt the beauty was being carried well with just the perfect amount of gentleness, and smile.

"Impressive! Aurora has really well thought of designs. All their five main designs have come out perfect matching to the theme they have tried to present"

"I agree. This can be called this year's best-presented show. Though the year has just started, I am sure none would be able to manage the same coordination and well-thought theme as Aurora. They have really worked hard and perfect"

The fashion critics discussed with one another, nodding their heads with appreciation. But among them, there was one whose attention was solely focused on the stage, watching Li Xue's walk. "There seems like this Amaranthine is not as perfect as we think. There seems to be something wrong with the way Li Xue is walking" He said, drawing the attention of other critics with his words.

But before anyone could even get to realize it, Li Xue was already off stage, completing her walk in one tune. The source of this content is N(o)vᴇl(F)ire

"I didn't feel anything like Mr. Ling? Li Xue has been carrying it well. Did you find anything wrong? If you say we can …"

Ling Guoli has been the senior-most and the most experienced one among them, so when the others heard him saying something, they instantly got alert. They were about to suggest something but before they could the old man shook his head in disapproval, saying, "Since she has carried the dress that well, the dress must be worth her comfort. Nothing to check again". He said, his old, slightly wrinkled features holding a smile.

Seeing him like that, others nodded as well agreeing to his words. They have truly not felt anything such when they saw the woman presenting the dress on the stage. She has come out perfect.

While reaching backstage, Li Xue quickly walked to Feng Yi Lan. Her expressions have a smile of relief but also some nervousness. "Your draping ditched me on the stage. Quickly fix it, we would need to appear again together". She said, showing where the draping has gone loose.

"Darling, you saved the day! Do you know how pretty you were there? It was so hard for me to just keep standing here without going on the stage to hug you instantly" Feng Yi Lan said, quickly working her hands to fix Li Xue's dress. While the others around also appreciated her.

"Yes, you saved us on the stage."

"If there have been other models except you, I am sure today a piece of big negative news has been created there".

"We are really lucky to have you".

The other people chimed and Li Xue just smiled at them. "How can I not be there? Your Boss has signed me for a long term. You will be getting to see me more working with you".

"We would love that!"

"Am I not wise to do that? When would I have managed to get such a perfect model for my brand?" When heard everyone appreciating her friend, Feng Yi Lan could not stop herself from asking for some credits. "I have been such a far-sighted person. Come on, sing some praises for me as well" She said and the staff members around at once burst into laughter.

After some time, the show came to its perfect ending. Several cameras flashed, running to capture the last fragments of the wonderful show as Li Xue along with Feng Yi Lan and the other co-designer went to give the bow of gratitude to the audiences.

Several media people came to interview Feng Yi Lan and Li Xue about the show. But escaping everyone after a few questions, Li Xue was the first one to go back in her room to change. Since the dress was a little dangerous, she would better change into something else before coming again on the camera. Everything could turn wrong if even in the last second, things come spotted.

But just when she was about to enter her room, Xiao Meng came to inform her in a hurry. "Sister Xue, the legendary fashion commentator, Mr. Ling Guoli wants to meet you. He is waiting for you there?" She said, gesturing towards the corner at a distance.

Li Xue looked in the direction. "Me?" She asked a little suspiciously and her assistant nodded her head profusely in yes.

And just as expected, in the corner a man was standing all upright in his posture. Looking at him standing like that none could guess his right age if not seen the mixed grey hair on his head.

Li Xue looked at his back as her lips lifted slightly up in a polite smile. "You were looking for me, Mr. Ling?" She started and at the voice of her words, the man turned to look at her. His eyes were aged but sharp enough to see the reality in one blink.

His eyes sized Li Xue who was still in her last outfit, holding it well, yet not disclosing anything about the wrong in the piece.

Seeing the girl that way, Ling Guoli smiled with some meaning, before saying, "Yes, I wanted to come and praise you personally. You did your job well on the stage. Especially in the last outfit Amaranthine. Your talent is rare in the circle and from now on, I will be looking for more of you. Best of luck!" He said, giving a genuine smile of appreciation before turning and leaving at once.
