My Lift As A Top Star In A Book

Chapter 40: I Will Work Hard and Become Even Straighter

[Lifetime of Stability]: Your mummy has the best taste in our entire family, and the gown I’ve picked is the most suitable for you. This long gray dress looks practically made just for you. The front of the dress has a subtle embroidery pattern, and it really brings out one’s figure. The skirt section cascades in waves too. This dress is made from three layers of real silk, and it’s been gradient dyed as well. My daughter will definitely look more beautiful than humanly possible in this dress.

Qin Nuan read how her parents and brother were fighting to market the gown they chose to her and couldn’t stop laughing.

She finally decided on the gray and white gown. Once she put it on, her aura became a lot colder and otherworldly. She was beautiful without going over the top.

Just like what her mother said, this dress seemed to be made just for her.

After she got changed, she stood in front of the mirror, took a photo, and sent it into the group.

[Warm Rays]: Thank you, Daddy, Mummy, and Brother, for your dresses. I love them all. So I’ve decided that I’ll wear the one from Mummy today, I’ll wear the one from Daddy tomorrow, and I’ll wear the one from Brother on the day after. I’ll strive to wear something different every day.

[Time]: Little sister, you’re so beautiful!!!

[Lifetime of Peace]: Little Nuannuan, you’re so beautiful!!!

[Lifetime of Stability]: The flowers aren’t as beautiful as a beauty, and the wind blows the fragrance of beauty into the palace. My precious baby girl, there’s definitely no moon in the sky tonight because you’d cover the brightness of the moon.

Ten seconds later, Qin Shi sent a photo to the group.

[Time]: But Mum, you can clearly see the moon in the sky tonight.

[Lifetime of Stability]: …

Qin Nuan sent a crying emoji from laughing too hard, then messaged Qin Shi privately: Brother, you’re really a straight man!

Qin Shi: Little sister, what do you mean by ‘straight man’?

He didn’t even know what that meant?!

Qin Nuan couldn’t stop laughing. Her fingers flew quickly over the phone keyboard as she replied very seriously: I’m complimenting you for being a clever and straight thinking man, a man who bravely moves forward in a straight line, a strong man who remains straight and doesn’t bend, an incorruptible man who is straightforward and honest, and you’d definitely be that man who will continue to rise and head straight for the clouds.

Qin Shi: Thank you, little sister! Your brother will work hard to become even straighter!

Qin Nuan: …

DING DONG!

The doorbell suddenly rang. Qin Nuan put her phone down and walked over to open the door.

The man outside the door saw Qin Nuan, and he looked stunned by her beauty for one moment before quickly lowering his head. He didn’t dare to look at Qin Nuan anymore and just held the gift box in his hand at her. “Miss Qin, I am Mr. Li’s assistant. He instructed me to bring an evening gown to you.”

Qin Nuan turned her nose up at the box and didn’t take it from him. “I’ve already changed into a gown, so you can just send me directly to the banquet venue.”

—

Li Group was holding their corporate gala at one of their own holiday resorts. When Qin Nuan arrived, Li Lingcheng had yet to arrive. Since some guests had already arrived, she took a glass of champagne from the waiter and sashayed into the crowd.

The moment she appeared, she drew the attention of a lot of people at the venue.

She had a gorgeous face, a nearly perfect figure, a confident air around her. Even when she was standing casually, it was enough to make everyone find it impossible to tear their gaze away from her.

The Qin Nuan of the past didn’t like such events, so very few people in the upper echelons of society had seen her before. Since she was new to them, many couldn’t help feeling curious, and they walked over to her.

Qin Nuan could see the curious and puzzled looks in their eyes. She curved her lips into a faint smile and generously and elegantly clinked glasses with them as she introduced herself.

“Qin Nuan from Qin Group.”

So she was the daughter of the Qin family.

After they heard Qin Nuan told them which family she was from, everyone immediately thought more highly of Qin Nuan.

This was exactly the scene that Li Lingcheng saw when he arrived at the venue.

Qin Nuan was standing in the midst of the crowd. The light shone down on her skin, making her so fair. It was as if her body could give off light.

She held a glass of champagne in one hand, and her other slim hand was resting on her waist. The light and thin long dress accentuated her curvaceous figure almost perfectly. She raised her chin slightly as she talked to the people around her with a faint smile at all times. She was confident and gorgeous, just like a princess born into nobility and grace.
