Chapter 26 Isn’t Huo Shiyan Yuan Xi’s husband?
At dusk, the sky gradually darkened and more and more guests came to the Chu family manor.
Chu Yan found Yuan Xi who was putting on makeup in the dressing room and said, "Sister."
Yuan Xi turned around and looked at Chu Yan and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Sister, the guests are almost here. Your little dress is really not suitable. I have prepared a high-end dress for you. Please change into it."
Yuan Xi said: "Thank you, I prepared it myself, and my husband helped me get it from the car."
Chu Yan frowned and said, "Sister, you know the occasion today, right? Those who come here are all well-known figures. If the dress you wear is not good enough, others will think that our Chu family is not doing well. I have prepared for you a DIOR haute couture dress from last autumn.
This dress was worn by artist Fan Yan when she attended an awards ceremony in March.
You know Chao Qing, right? The TV series she starred in is now popular, and the dresses she wore are very popular. I bought this high-end dress she wore because I know her stylist. I prepared it especially for you."
Yuan Xi didn't mind wearing dresses that had been worn by others. When she accompanied Gu Hanchen to banquets before, it was impossible for her to buy new dresses every time, so she rented them.
The exhibition hall that Liang Suisui introduced yesterday also displayed clothes that had been worn by others.
Yuan Xi grew up in an ordinary family, and was even poor during college. She couldn't accept spending five or six hundred thousand or even millions of yuan to buy a dress that she would only wear once.
Indeed, renting a dress that someone else has worn is more cost-effective than buying one.
But even though she seldom accompanied Gu Hanchen to banquets, she knew that in this circle, wearing high-end dresses worn by female stars was a taboo.
There are many reasons for this. The two biggest reasons are that after celebrities wear the dresses, major online shopping platforms will frantically copy and produce knockoff dresses.
Secondly, it will make other people think that wearing the same dress as a celebrity has no taste of their own and is just imitating. When Yuan Xi was only Gu Hanchen's female companion before, she would deliberately avoid dresses that were obviously worn by the rental girl.
The dress Chao Qing had worn would not add color to this dress. Even if it was the same dress, it would not be suitable to wear, not to mention that this dress was worn by Chao Qing...
Yuan Xi raised his eyes and glanced at her. "Chu Yan, this is not the first time I've attended a banquet like this. I know exactly what to wear. Thank you."
After Chu Yan went out with the dress, she ran into Yang Ying. She felt aggrieved: "Mom, I spent 300,000 yuan to buy a DIOR high-end dress for my sister. I just wanted her to look beautiful today, but she actually rejected my intention and said no...
Mom, I feel like my sister always hates me. I know everything I got should have been hers, and I tried my best to make it up to her..."
Yang Ying patted Chu Yan's shoulder and said, "I'll go in and take a look."
"Xin'er."
Yuan Xi raised his eyes and looked at Yang Ying and Chu Yan.
Yang Ying said, "Xin'er, don't you like the dress Yanyan prepared for you?"
Yuan Xi said: "Well, I have prepared something myself, John should be bringing it up soon."
As soon as Yuan Xi finished speaking, Huo Shiyan had already arrived at the dressing room on the second floor with the dress.
Yuan Xi unzipped the dust bag of the dress, revealing the style of the dress.
Chu Yan saw the dress and said, "Isn't this DIOR's new spring and summer model? I haven't even got it! How is that possible? Sister, you didn't pick a fake dress, did you?"
Yuan Xi: "I can't wear fake clothes on this occasion today, Mom, I need to change my clothes."
Yang Ying pulled Chu Yan out and said, "Your sister doesn't hate you. She has prepared everything. Go down and entertain the guests."
Chu Yan said, "Mom, has my sister been cheated? I also ordered this dress, and it's still being made. How come she received it so quickly? It can't be a knockoff dress, can it? Ask my sister to change it."
Yang Ying said, "Xin'er has been working as a secretary for Gu Hanchen for five years, so she wouldn't be so blind. Let's go and entertain the guests."
Dressing room.
When the stylist was about to help Yuan Xi change into her dress, Huo Shiyan said, "You guys go out, I'll help Yuan Xi change."
Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan and shyly asked Huo Shiyan to change her dress.
"Is Gu Hanchen here?"
Huo Shiyan took a deep breath and said, "He had a car accident." "Is it serious?" Yuan Xi asked nervously. Gu Hanchen must not get into trouble when Mi Chen goes public.
Huo Shiyan smiled faintly and said, "He's fine. He was rear-ended in the city. He wanted to do a good deed, so he sent the driver who rear-ended him to the hospital. He will be here later."
"Oh, that's good." Yuan Xi felt relieved.
Yuan Xi opened his cell phone and asked where Liang Suisui was.
Sui Sui Bai Fu Shou: Today Metro Line 5 was out of order, and it was rush hour, so I couldn't get a taxi. I just got on the taxi and it will arrive in about half an hour.
Mi Chen Game Yuan Xi: Be careful on the road.
Jiangcheng First Hospital.
Gu Hanchen was waiting in the corridor for Ren Tian, who was taking X-rays in the emergency room examination department.
Gu Hanchen saw the young girl running over: "Xiaoyi, why is it you? Didn't I ask Zhong's mother to come over?"
Zhong Xiaoyi panted and said, "My mother is old, and she doesn't know how to operate many of the machines in the hospital. I happened to be at home, so I came here in her place."
Gu Hanchen saw Ren Tian being pushed out and handed the phone to Zhong Xiaoyi, "Take a few photos of me and her."
Zhong Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, then took out her phone to take pictures of Gu Hanchen and Ren Tian.
Gu Hanchen took back the phone and said, "Xiaoyi, take good care of her and arrange the best ward for her. It's getting dark now. I have to go to Chu's house."
"Gu, Mr. Gu!" Ren Tian shouted repeatedly.
Gu Hanchen didn't even turn his head. Ren Tian looked at the young-looking girl beside him and asked in a bad tone, "Who are you to Gu Hanchen?"
Zhong Xiaoyi answered frankly: "I am the daughter of Mr. Gu's nanny."
Ren Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Hanchen called the driver and found out that the road was completely blocked and he couldn't make it to the hospital in time.
Gu Hanchen was waiting for a taxi at the hospital entrance, but every taxi that came was full of people.
Until a white tram stopped in front of Gu Hanchen: "Mr. Gu, are you going to the Chu family too?"
Gu Hanchen looked at the young woman in the car with delicate makeup and a dress, "Do we know each other?"
"I'm Yuan Xi's friend Liang Suisui. If you want to go to Chu's house together, please get in the car. Metro Line 5 is broken, so it's hard to get a taxi. The online taxi-hailing service has a queue of more than 100 people."
Gu Hanchen got in the car. His 1.88-meter height was a bit crowded in the online car-hailing vehicle. "Has Yuan Xi ever said anything bad about me in front of you?"
Liang Suisui asked, "Why do you think Yuan Xi would say bad things about you?"
Gu Hanchen touched his nose guiltily, "Have you met Yuan Xi's husband?"
"I've seen it before."
Gu Hanchen looked at Liang Suisui and asked, "Is he more handsome than me?"
Liang Suisui: "... Mr. Gu, don't you think it's a bit presumptuous for you to ask this question since we just met?"
Gu Hanchen said: "I know, Yuan Xi's husband is just not as handsome as me! If I had known, I would have done a hairstyling today."
Liang Suisui: "Even if you have a hairstyle, you are not as handsome as Huo Shiyan."
Gu Hanchen said: "Huo Shiyan? I am indeed not as handsome as Huo Shiyan, because he is the hero who saved Mi Chen from danger, but I am definitely more handsome than Yuan Xi's husband."
Liang Suisui: "Isn't Huo Shiyan Yuan Xi's husband?"
Gu Hanchen: “???”
