Capítulo 906: Chapter 906: [Extra] Whatever Others Have, We Must Have Too
As soon as An’an and Xu Weiran walked in, Mother Xu warmly greeted her, “An’an, come over here. This is Mr. Gu, whom I specially invited to help you and Ranran with custom dress fitting. Mr. Gu is quite famous in the fashion world, having won numerous domestic and international design awards. Many celebrity wives and wealthy ladies privately seek Mr. Gu for custom dresses.”
For her son’s engagement banquet, Mother Xu particularly reached out to her old friends and invited this young and renowned fashion design master from Jing City, urgently booking a slot for a high-end custom dress fitting and also had a few sets made for herself.
In essence, she was using all the connections she had for this engagement banquet.
Sheng Ning’an scrutinized the young man in front, who seemed under thirty.
Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he exuded a calm aura and appeared to be someone who doesn’t talk much.
“Mr. Xu, Miss Sheng.”
The two parties exchanged greetings.
After Sheng Ning’an and Xu Weiran sat down opposite on the sofa, they saw the man open a book of design drafts and hand it to them, saying, “Due to time constraints, these are some of my previous design sketches. Please have a look to see if any style catches your fancy. I’ll make modifications according to your specific requirements based on the overall style you prefer.”
Three months is quite rushed for custom dress making, starting from scratch might be infeasible.
Sheng Ning’an took the design drafts and flipped through them, noticing every dress looked stunning.
Every design was distinctive, truly worthy of a professional fashion design master.
Sheng Ning’an spent quite some time picking her favorite style and also chose a complementary dress for Xu Weiran.
After some discussion, the man stood up and took his leave, “I understand both of your preferences. I’ll expedite the making process. Once the sample dresses are ready, I’ll invite you to come for fitting.”
“Alright, given the tight schedule this time, we really appreciate it, Mr. Gu.”
After seeing off the designer, Mother Xu clasped Sheng Ning’an’s hand and said, “Thank you for the trouble, this time around, but when you two get married, I’ll definitely invite the master to design for you two well in advance.”
“No worries, Auntie, I think the dress we just chose looks great too.” Engagement is not quite like marriage, and considering the time constraints, the Xu Family has done remarkably well.
Mother Xu patted her hand with a smile, “As long as you like it. Oh, I’ve also arranged for the jewelry store’s consultants. They’ll be bringing some accessories over shortly. If anything catches your eye, just keep it.”
“That’s not necessary, Auntie, you gave me a bracelet last time, that will suffice.”
Receiving such an expensive bracelet last time, she felt quite embarrassed. Upon hearing that Mother Xu wanted to buy her engagement jewelry, she quickly declined.
“How could that be?” Mother Xu held onto her hand, “A woman marries only once in her lifetime, anything that needs purchasing must be bought, and these cannot be skimped. What others have, we should have too. Don’t be afraid to spend.”
Sheng Ning’an lifted her eyes, seeking help from Xu Weiran.
Xu Weiran chuckled, “Just listen to my mom, don’t worry, the old lady isn’t short on money.”
Mother Xu nodded in agreement, “Yes, yes, don’t try to save money for our family.”
Their family wasn’t lacking in money nor afraid of spending, as long as her beloved son could bring the bride home quickly, all was well.
“Thank you, Auntie!” Unable to refuse, Sheng Ning’an could only respond with a smile, feeling a stream of warmth in her heart. Follow current novᴇls on NovєlFіre.net
