Chapter 190: Who Gifted the Dress?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yuan Shu was furious. She had been in this world for so long, but she had never seen someone like her! Not only was she foolish, but she also distorted the truth!
Not to mention that Yuan Shu disdained using shady methods to get close to anyone, she had never seen Jiang Chen before. She had only heard his name once or twice from others!
Yuan Shu stood up and looked at her coldly as she said in a sharp tone, “Miss Song, you should be careful with your words. Don’t spout nonsense and let others laugh at you for being so gossipy!”
Yuan Shu was already 1.7 meters tall, so when she stood up, she was half a head taller than Song s.h.i.+. In addition, she often exercised and had a good figure. When she stood there, she exuded an invisible sense of pressure.
Song s.h.i.+ was shocked by Yuan Shu’s words and couldn’t help but take half a step back.
One had to know that Song s.h.i.+ had been trained in taekwondo since she was young, so she was very bold and wasn’t even afraid of burly men, but now, she was actually frightened by a weak woman. If word got out, it would be embarra.s.sing for her!
Indignant, Song s.h.i.+ straightened her chest and glared at her. What was the use of having a glib tongue? She had evidence!
As Song s.h.i.+ stared at her gown, she sneered and said, “You’re just distorting the truth! If I’m talking nonsense, how are you going to explain where this gown on you came from?!”
Yuan Shu was stunned and didn’t know what to say.
Although the two of them were not loud and the banquet hall was very noisy, so it was difficult for people a few steps away to hear their conversation clearly, they were two beauties after all. At this moment, the atmosphere between the two of them was very tense, so more and more people couldn’t help but look at them.
This piece of clothing was directly delivered to their door after the delivery man picked it up from the designated place. Even the delivery man didn’t know who the delivery man was, but the recipient’s name was Yuan Shu, and the address was the s.h.i.+ family’s villa.
The clothes fit Yuan Shu very well. To be able to get her measurements so accurately, she guessed that it must be s.h.i.+ Yi’s design.
Unexpectedly, when s.h.i.+ Yi came to put on makeup for her the next day, she was stunned when she saw this outfit and praised her repeatedly.
Yuan Shu asked her curiously, “Didn’t you design this dress?”
s.h.i.+ Yi was surprised. “Recently, I’ve been overwrought because of Yushu Buyi’s new products. How can I have the time to design such an exquisite gown?! Moreover, it will take at least a month to make this gown. Even if I have the intention, I don’t have the energy.”
Yuan Shu tugged at the hem of the dress in front of the mirror as she looked at it carefully.
s.h.i.+ Yi leaned on her shoulder as she said enviously, “Maybe Brother custom-made it for you? Brother has been away for the past few days, so he might have been preparing a surprise for you!”
Although Yuan Shu wasn’t touched, she was still skeptical.
However, when s.h.i.+ Xiao took out the entire set of jewelry designed by a famous jewelry designer, Yuan Shu could tell from his gaze that this was the first time he had seen this gown. It seemed like it wasn’t him.
This dress was expensive in terms of design, workmans.h.i.+p, and fabric. Yuan Shu really couldn’t think of anyone who would spend so much money to give her a gown, so she thought that it was a gift from s.h.i.+ Lu and planned to verify it with s.h.i.+ Lu after attending the ball.
Now that she was suddenly questioned by Song s.h.i.+, she was baffled as well. Could it really be that someone she had never met gave her a gown?
However, this gown fit her so well. How could they have never seen each other before?
Yuan Shu felt a little confused. The development of the story was completely different from the plot she had read. Many characters and books didn’t match up at all. Yuan Shu tried her best to think of when Jiang Chen had appeared, but she couldn’t think of anything.
The uneasiness in her heart grew stronger and stronger, as if she was missing something.
Just as the two of them were in a stalemate, a cold male voice suddenly sounded. “I gave the gown to my wife.. Miss Song, do you have a problem with
