The white dress is completely opposite to this style. It has long sleeves and a high collar. The skirt covers all the way to the ankles. If there is anything exposed, it is probably the sleeves made of translucent lace.
Pei Xiao also looks good when she wears it. The long skirt looks tall and slender, like a white lotus, naturally carved with hibiscus from clear water.
Meng Jiao disagreed: "This one is not as good-looking as that one. It is wrapped tightly and does not attract the eye at all."
Xi Xiangdong stood up with satisfaction: "That's it."
Seeing him about to sign the bill, Pei Xiao quickly stopped him: "How can I let Mr. Xi pay for it? I'll do it myself."
He spoke very eloquently, but he was shocked when he saw the price: "Ten or 120,000?"
She calculated over and over again and realized that it was impossible for her to have so much money on her card. Finally, she shamelessly asked Meng Jiao: "Sister Meng...can you...rent the dress here?"
"Huh?" Meng Jiao blinked, as if she didn't understand.
Xi Xiangdong had already handed over the card: "Swipe this one."
"Mr. Xi..." she protested softly.
Xi Xiangdong glanced at her: "The company will pay a certain amount of costume fees to potential artists. Besides, you are helping the company make money, and your image is related to the company's reputation."
When he said this, Pei Xiao was speechless.
"Then... let it be deducted from my commission from advertising."
Meng Jiao put her own clothes into a paper bag and handed them to her. When they got outside, the cold wind was still biting, and Pei Xiao shrank her shoulders, not daring to take out her tattered coat and put it on.
When she returned to the hotel, almost all the artists present had finished walking on the red carpet. Yang Yunguang had not yet appeared as the finale. She waited anxiously, and saw Xiangdong's car driving over. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, and when she pulled the car door, she saw
I saw Pei Xiao sitting inside.
His eyes moved from Pei Xiao's face with little makeup to the dress on his body, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Who invited you? Are you also qualified to participate in tonight's celebration banquet?"
"It's me." Xi Xiangdong said calmly and pulled Pei Xiao out of the car. "I have already proposed to Director Chen that Pei Xiao should participate in nationwide publicity activities."
Yang Yunguang gritted his teeth, his pretty face almost turning blue in the cold wind.
Xi Xiangdong glanced at her and said to Pei Xiao: "Go to the backstage to find the makeup artist first. I'll wait for you there later."
Her heart was pounding, she said "Oh" and turned to leave, but he stopped her again.
"etc."
A suit jacket was draped over her shoulders: "Take it off when you get to the venue."
Pei Xiao was stunned for a moment, his lips trembling: "Thank you..."
He didn't speak any more, and walked into the reporters' flashlights with Yang Yunguang on his arm. The fans waiting outside the red carpet were excited by Yang Yunguang's appearance and reached a climax.
Backstage, the makeup artist nervously applied makeup to Pei Xiao. Xi Wanlai looked at her outfit. It was not bad, elegant and decent. Although there was nothing revealing, Pei Xiao had just made her debut, so her image was better to be healthy and conservative.
After the styling was completed, Xi Wanlai drove her back to the hotel's main entrance in the Maybach. They were probably the last ones to arrive, and the reporters had already dispersed to prepare for the entrance.
The staff came over to help them open the car door. Xi Wanlai stretched out his arms and said, "I can only feel sorry for you and come with me."
Pei Xiao nodded, as long as she was not alone, she would be satisfied.
Xi Xiangdong, who had arrived at the hotel, stood at the door, watching Pei Xiao walking toward him in a charming way.
On the other side, many reporters are chasing after interviewing Yang Yunguang. In the eyes of others, Pei Xiao may be just a dim and inconspicuous star, but in his eyes, she has already gathered thousands of stars and is destined to become the most dazzling star.
