The Empty Bridal Chamber - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Designer of Huashe

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The next morning, Lin Wanmeng’s wrist still hurt from being held tightly.

After learning that the Ye Family’s management company was managed by Ye Lan, Lin Wanmeng gave up on the idea of starting from there.

After thinking for a long time, he had no choice but to look for He Yan.

As for He Yan’s condition, he wanted to invite Lin Wanmeng to meet Eden, Huashe’s most famous designer.

In the middle of the studio, a gown caught Lin Wanmeng’s attention.

The gown was pineal green from head to toe, and brown satin that looked like ribbons hung from the belt. It was dotted with silver threads and rhinestones, making one hold their breath at a glance.

“It’s Eden’s latest design. He calls it—Huan Sen.”

The assistant was Eden’s fanboy. As soon as he saw that Lin Wanmeng admired this set of clothes, he immediately tried his best to flatter her.

“President Lin, if you like this set of clothes, treat it as a deposit for our cooperation. How about that?”

Eden’s works had always cost millions, and they were all unique. Lin Wanmeng had never heard of such a precious deposit.

She instantly calmed down and retracted her hand. “You’re welcome. I’m just here to take a look. It won’t be good if CEO He spends money.”

He Yan was obviously used to Lin Wanmeng’s vigilance. He only smiled.

“It’s okay. I have a good impression of President Lin. A set of clothes is fine as a gift.”

Lin Wanmeng was silent. She took two steps back and suddenly said, “President He should know that I’m married, right?”

He Yan raised his eyebrows. “I also know that President Lin is about to get a divorce.”

“Mr. He should know about my family. I hate cheating the most.”

He Yan seemed to know what Lin Wanmeng wanted to say and gradually restrained his teasing expression.

“No matter what Ye Lingxiao did, I haven’t divorced him yet, so I can’t and I’m not worthy of accepting other people’s feelings.”

Although He Yan was still smiling, it was as if he had been slapped twice on the face. One slap for etiquette and one slap for shame.

“I’m sorry, it’s just that this gift doesn’t come with any ill intentions.”

Lin Wanmeng hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head and refused, “It’s too expensive…”

Before he could finish speaking, the door of the studio suddenly opened. A blond man with blue eyes and an Asian face was walking briskly in a pair of sheepskin leather shoes.

He Yan was obviously very familiar with Eden. As Eden hugged He Yan warmly, he winked and said, “Why did you bring this beauty to my studio? Are you trying to pick out a piece of jewelry?”

Eden looked around seriously and placed his gaze on Huan Sen. “I think this outfit suits you very well. Miss Lin, are you willing to give it a try?”

He Yan looked over with a smile.

The date of the latest release was about to arrive. Lin Wanmeng thought about it carefully and finally nodded.

After wearing it, she opened the curtain and slowly walked out.

Lin Wanmeng’s figure was very well-proportioned. Her neck was slender, and with the emerald necklace, it made her skin look even fairer. Her long hair was pinned up by the studio assistant with a golden olive barrette, making her look dignified and a little lively.

Eden watched from the side and could not help but praise, “It’s beautiful and mysterious. It suits you.”

Lin Wanmeng slowly walked out of the fitting room. The diamonds on her shoes shone under the light, and the corners of her dignified dress were decorated with a falling bow.

Her slim waist and brown belt made her look like a lively and small bird. The green dress was like her gorgeous feathers.

Eden could not help but be stunned. He took a few steps forward and reached out to lift Lin Wanmeng’s hand. However, he saw an inconspicuous plain silver ring on such a beauty’s hand.

How could such a ring appear on this lady’s hand?

He put the ring aside unhappily. When He Yan saw it, his face froze.

Eden took out his precious ring. The sapphire was carved into the shape of a diamond and placed on the hollowed-out silver ring. He held Lin Wanmeng’s hand, his eyes filled with amazement.

Meanwhile, He Yan picked up the silver ring when neither of them was paying attention.

Ye Lingxiao’s name was engraved at the bottom of the ring.

He was slightly stunned and looked at Lin Wanmeng with a complicated expression.

Lin Wanmeng didn’t know either. When she threw the ring, she threw two of them away. Ye Lingxiao didn’t check them when he picked them up, so she wore the wrong ring.

He Yan suppressed the amazement and pity in his heart and began to consider more benefits.

If Lin Wanmeng was destined not to become his woman, then it would not benefit him to interact with her now. Instead, he would be giving his weakness to Ye Lingxiao for no reason.

The Qinyu Company must be a rising star.

But what about Lin Wanmeng, who was working with the Ye Corporation?

In the end, Lin Wanmeng accepted it. However, there was a hint of worry between her brows, making one’s heart tighten.

“Did something happen?” He Yan asked in a low voice.

It was inconvenient for Lin Wanmeng to say anything more to a sensitive person like He Yan.

He Yan, who knew Ye Lingxiao very well, roughly knew what was going on. He was silent for a moment before saying,

“Some people say that marriage is a grave. Anyone that’s involved becomes more or less unlike themselves.”

Lin Wanmeng’s eyes flashed with surprise as she looked at He Yan.

“Why don’t you think about your original intention and enrich yourself? It’s better than throwing yourself at the other party.”

Lin Wanmeng opened the door. There was no one in the villa. The nanny had also gotten off work at this time. She came back a little late, and Ye Lingxiao was not at home.

The humid air entered her nose and Lin Wanmeng sat at the table and watched as the clock gradually turned to twelve.

She turned on her computer and logged into an account that had been sealed for a long time.

Shuangmu Dreams was Lin Wanmeng’s account name on the social media platform.

Back then, she had split her name up to create this name. It was very old-fashioned, but compared to the first name she came up with, it was already a huge improvement.

Before Lin Wanmeng became a designer, she liked to draw. That was why she chose this industry.

She looked at her previous few works and smiled knowingly. Just as she was flipping through them, she saw a very cute fangirl in her comments section urging her to update in a cute tone.

“Are you still not updating?”

“I’m starving to death. When will you be back?”

“Feed me!”

This persistent fangirl was still persistently urging her to update until a week ago. When she clicked on it, she realized that she was also an artist.

There were means to contact her on the top of her homepage. Lin Wanmeng added it out of curiosity, and it was approved instantly.

“Are you really Shuangmu Dreams?”

How could this be fake?

Lin Wanmeng replied with a smile. However, the fangirl was very vigilant and asked Lin Wanmeng to show a drawing in a similar art style to prove it.

It was a good thing to be vigilant on the Internet. Lin Wanmeng did not feel offended. She picked up her pen and drew a sketch of the dress she was wearing today and sent it over.

In less than five seconds, the other party’s tone instantly changed from a sharp boss to a sweet girl.

“Oh! You chose to speak to me, I’m dead!”

“Will you still update your story?”
