Shen Yi arrived at the doorway of the wardrobe room with the intention of reminding Ye Wanwan that the makeup artist had arrived, but as he reached the doorway and saw Ye Wanwan happily admiring her gown in the mirror, he quietly watched without disturbing her.
It wasn’t until Ye Wanwan noticed Shen Yi standing at the doorway that she raised her voice and asked, "Does it look good?"
"Mhm," Shen Yi nodded without hesitation, his eyes full of tenderness.
Ye Wanwan also smiled, albeit a bit foolishly.
The designer, who witnessed this scene, didn’t think Mrs. Shen’s smile was silly at all; it was clearly brimming with happiness. Unfortunately, all she could do was envy.
"The makeup artist is here," Shen Yi reminded, although he too wished to give Ye Wanwan more time, but it really was getting late.
"Alright, I’ll be right there," Ye Wanwan replied cheerfully.
Originally, Ye Wanwan was feeling down about attending the banquet tonight.
There were many reasons, such as the cold weather. Although Shen Yi would never let her get cold, she simply didn’t want to go out, or that she couldn’t wear a normal gown and had to have it specially altered—just a lot of hassle, in short...
But now, dressed in a beautiful gown, Ye Wanwan’s mood had significantly improved.
Once the gown was confirmed to be problem-free, Ye Wanwan emerged from the wardrobe room, and the makeup artist was already waiting outside.
"Miss Ye," the makeup artist greeted Ye Wanwan with a smile; she had been doing her makeup since before Ye Wanwan got married, so it was a habit to address her as Miss Ye.
After exchanging greetings, Ye Wanwan sat down and the makeup artist began her work.
In the meantime, Shen Yi had changed his clothes. He didn’t need makeup, just a simple tidying up of his hair, which he could do himself.
Ye Wanwan’s necklace was chosen by Shen Yi for her. After he helped her with the necklace, Shen Yi looked at Ye Wanwan in the mirror and said very seriously, "You look very beautiful."
Ye Wanwan raised her eyebrows, struggling to suppress the corners of her mouth that were itching to rise, and said with feigned indifference, "You’re not too shabby either."
Shen Yi raised his hand and gently touched the top of Ye Wanwan’s head, his smile indulgent and helpless.
By the time everything was ready, it was already past four o’clock. Although it was early, Shen Yi had the kitchen prepare dinner since they probably wouldn’t get much to eat at the annual meeting, so he wanted to make sure Ye Wanwan had something in her stomach.
But because it was too early, Ye Wanwan wasn’t hungry and only ate a little before she stopped.
The makeup artist touched up her lipstick, and the handsome couple, arm in arm, left the villa to head to the annual meeting venue.
On the way to the hotel, Ye Wanwan sighed, and Shen Yi asked her beside, "Tired?"
Because of the annual meeting, Ye Wanwan had been busy since lunch and hadn’t had any time to rest.
"Just a little," Ye Wanwan gestured with two fingers.
Shen Yi smiled, "Then we’ll leave a bit early."
"Mhm," Ye Wanwan nodded in agreement.
This year’s Ye Corporation annual meeting was still held at a hotel owned by the Ye Corporation, and the hotel had already arranged everything in advance.
When Ye Wanwan and Shen Yi arrived at the hotel, the entrance was bustling with luxury cars, a clear sign of guests arriving for the annual meeting.
As they both got out of the car, the welcoming hotel manager recognized them and hurriedly approached to greet them, "Miss Ye, Mr. Shen."
Ye Wanwan and Shen Yi both nodded with smiles, and the manager quickly ushered them inside.
