Chapter 66 – However, you had to be very careful when your opponent was Lu Beichuan (2)
Ye Qing did her best to hide her anger. It was killing her to have to smile as she said, “Aunty, thank you. That’s okay.”
“No need to be polite with aunty. You’re the same size as Qingqing, and I custom ordered these dresses with Qingqing’s measurements. You can definitely wear these. Go on, pick one. If you don’t pick one, you’ll disappoint aunty.
These words made it hard for anyone to refuse.
For lack of a better option, Ye Qing chose a mermaid wedding dress. “That one.”
“That one is quite nice. Once Qingqing come out, you can go over there to try it on.”
There was an embarrassed smile on Ye Qing’s face as she nodded.
Soon, Ye Zhen came out of the room. Unable to avoid Mother Lu’s task, Ye Qing could only go into the room and change into a wedding dress.
The professional watched as the other sister entered the room with a stony expression that warned others from approaching her. She was completely different from her sister, who had seemed gentle and soft. These two sisters were as different as heaven and hell. The professional was surprised that two identical twins would have such different personalities.
Not daring to joke around with her, the professional swiftly helped her put on the wedding dress.
Ye Qing looked at herself in the mirror. Although this mermaid wedding dress fit her body perfectly, it still lost to the stunningly beautiful wedding dress that Ye Zhen had worn.
She would either accept the best or refuse something completely if she couldn’t have that.
Ye Qing would never let herself be wronged by settling for ssecond best.
She forced herself to liven up her spirits and show a glittering smile as she leisurely walked out.
Mother Lu and Ye Zhen were sitting on the couch and chatting. When Mother Lu saw Ye Qing coming out, she looked at her from top to bottom. “This one is good too. It look quite suitable for you. Qingqing, what do you think?”
Ye Zhen glanced at Ye Qing and honestly praised, “It looks very good.”
Ye Qing looked at Lu Beichuan. Even if she was “Ye Zhen” right now, she still hoped that Lu Beichuan would look at her and be mesmerized.
But, from start to end, Lu Beichuan didn’t look at her.
Ye Qing could clearly see that Lu Beichuan’s gaze was always on Ye Zhen.
“Zhenzhen, what do you think of this dress?”
Ye Qing tightly grasped the dress so that the sequins on the dress would dig into her palms and cause her pain. The pain would remind her that she had to keep her emotions under control and not reveal her true feelings.
“It’s good.”
“Since you like it, we’ll take this one too.” After saying that, Mother Lu said to the professional, “We’ll take these two.”
“Sure, Mrs. Lu, I’ll process the order.”
Mother Lu gently patted the back of Ye Zhen’s hand. “We should change how Qingqing is addressed too. On the day of the wedding, I’ll have Beichuan formally introduce you to everyone as the Lu family’s daughter-in-law.”
Ye Zhen inwardly sighed a bit. The role of the Lu family’s daughter-in-law wasn’t an enviable one.
In the novel, “Ye Zhen” hadn’t been liked by anyone. In the end, she was implicated by Lu Beichuan’s deeds and sent to prison. It was simply suffering on top of more suffering.
Ye Zhen faintly smiled and stayed silent.
Seeing this exchange, Ye Qing couldn’t bear it any longer. She turned around and returned to the changing room. The professional that was helping her change out of the dress was shocked by her vicious expression. The professional couldn’t help but feel frightened.
This woman put on the facade of being gentle and beguiling in front of the Lu family. But, in front of someone that she thought was below her, she showed such a malevolent side. The professional didn’t know what this woman was thinking about, but it was really scary to see how she was able to switch between two very different personalities.
Ye Qing glared at the professional. “What are you looking at? Hurry up! Help me out of this dress!”
The professional quickly went forward and did as she ordered.
