Chapter 113  : Invitation Letter and Evening Gown

With this interlude, Mo Yan didn’t have to worry about whether she should go or not.

Seeing that it was almost time for the banquet, the three of them returned to the studio, but this time, there were two stylists instead of one.

“Excuse me, are you Mo Yan?”

Hearing someone call her, Mo Yan looked up and saw a woman standing in front of her with a box in her hand.

“I am,” Mo Yan replied.

“Hello, Mo Yan. This is a gown from a gentleman. He said that he hopes that you can wear this gown to the banquet tonight.”

Looking at the box in the woman’s hand, Mo Yan subconsciously moved back a little. She still wasn’t sure who had left them the extra invitation letter, and now someone was giving her a gown? What was going on?

Mo Yan felt paranoid.

Xu Tian and Li Guoguo also heard the woman’s words. As the two of them were still styling, they were unable to move and could only look behind through the mirror.

“A gentleman gave it to me? I want to meet him.”

Mo Yan was extremely cautious when it came to gifts from strangers. Moreover, she didn’t remember having any male friends who lived in Jing City who would give her a dress. He didn’t seem like a good person.

The woman felt a little awkward when she saw Mo Yan being so guarded. She held the gift box and didn’t know whether to put it down or take it away.

While the two of them were in a stalemate, a man who looked like a celebrity walked down from the second floor. He smiled at Mo Yan and said, “Hello, Miss Mo. I’m the manager of this shop, Du Jing.”

Mo Yan extended her hand and shook his. “Hello, Mr. Du.”

“Mr. Du, do you know who gave me this gown?”

Seeing that Du Jing was the manager, he probably knew who was the one who gave her the gown.

Sure enough, Du Jing opened his mouth and said, “Miss Mo, there’s no need to think too much. This gown is a gift from a friend of mine. He fell in love with you at first sight when he saw you in the shop this morning. I hope you can accept it.”

Mo Yan had never expected that there would be such a reason.

Not only was Mo Yan dumbfounded, Xu Tian and Li Guoguo were also dumbfounded. Strange things happened every day, but today was particularly strange.

Mo Yan composed herself and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Du. I’m already married, so I can’t accept your friend’s advances.”

She was determined to say no to anything that could negatively affect their relationship.

“You’re already married? Why don’t I see you wearing a wedding ring?” Du Jing said as he shifted his gaze to Mo Yan’s hand.

Mo Yan subconsciously touched her wrist and said, “Because I don’t like diamond rings. My husband gave me a jade bracelet when we got married. I don’t wear it out often in case I accidentally break it.”

In order to completely put an end to that unknown suitor’s thoughts, Mo Yan explained in great detail.

Just by looking at the packaging, she could tell that the gown was very expensive. He was willing to spend so much money just because of love at first sight? He must be someone with quite a prominent status. Mo Yan did not want to cause unnecessary trouble, so she explained to Du Jing.

“I will pass on your words to my friend. However, I still hope that you can accept it. This is the first time my friend has given a girl a present. It’s a gift from his heart.”

Mo Yan thought for a moment and opened the box. On the thick velvet bottom, a gorgeous and exquisite one-shoulder long gown embellished with countless diamonds was lying quietly in it.

With a light smile, Mo Yan did not reach out to touch the dress. Instead, she turned to Du Jing and said, “The dress is very beautiful. Please express my gratitude to your friend on my behalf. However, as a married person, I cannot accept this gift. I think I should reserve the privilege of giving gifts to me to my husband.”

Although Mo Yan’s words had a joking tone, they also expressed her sincerity. After Du Jing saw that Mo Yan would not accept the dress, he got someone to bring it away.

“Although you won’t accept the gown, you can still accept this invitation letter. I heard from my friend that you want to attend the banquet for work. You can accept this, right?”

Since Du Jing put it that way, Mo Yan couldn’t refuse anymore. She could only take it with a smile.

It was a good opportunity to be able to go to the banquet. As Mo Yan had her make up put on, she thought to herself about how good Du Jing was at negotiating.

Meanwhile, Luo Tao was thinking about Mo Yan being able to wear the clothes that he had personally picked out for her. Little did he know that his advances were rejected by her. Moreover, the reason was because of him...
