Lin Chang Lu pulled herself altogether and placed a pleasant smile that was the utter opposite of the jealousy storming in her heart. "That an overpraise, I'm merely doing my best at work. How about you, Ms. Yu? I'm sorry if I sound rude, but may I ask what is your occupation?"
"I'm still a student currently." Xiao Yun replied confidently, ignoring the relaxed expression fleeting from her face.
"CEO Wang-" suddenly someone appeared from behind them to talk to Wang Li Lei about his works. Seeing the man's uncomfortable expression Xiao Yun thought that she shouldn't butt into their conversation and turned her eyes away to release her hand from his arm and heard Lin Chang Lu calling her. "We will be bothering him if we stay here, do you mind if we have a talk, Ms. Yu?"
Xiao Yun slanted her head down as a tacit agreement and walked with her. "It would be weird if you keep calling me Ms. Lin. I'm don't really find of formal names you see, it would be fine to call me Chang Lu."
Xiao Yun replied with a light chuckle, "alright then Chang Lu, I'm also not a person of formal speech you can call me Xiao Yun."
Lin Chang Lu didn't expect her to be so calm and marked her as a naive person. A young lady from a medium-high family who by chance caught Wang Li Lei's eyes. She felt relieved that Xiao Yun was gullible enough to follow her without any care.
"I have known Li Lei since he was ten." Lin Chang Lu began. "He has been a very cold person but actually deep down he is a very caring person."
"That's right." Xiao Yun replied in ease, letting Lin Chang Lu to continue in pouring vinegar which she didn't care about.
Seeing Xiao Yun not hitting to her words, Lin Chang Lu narrowed her eyes at her air-headedness. "How do you two meet?"
Xiao Yun heard her curiosity and kindly filled her questions, "He proposed an engagement to my family and of course I agree. Now here I am."
"He sent the proposal?" Lin Chang Lu questioned her words. his eyes almost turned white from shock. There was no way Wang Li Lei who she had been trying to seduce would easily send a proposal to a person who he never met! Since they were young she had tried many ways to melt his cold attitude but none works but she knew he does held a feeling for her. Yet how can such a little lady with no notable or praisable background receive the proposal form him?

She calmed herself down, 'No, Li Lei do love me! He once told me from his own mouth! This little lady must be the one who confused him at the moment.'
"Yes. He's quite a very passionate person in his work and private life. I truly admire him for many reasons." Xiao Yun heard Lin Chang Lu clicking her tongue faintly and smiled. She wanted to make her drink vinegar? She was too green in this matter. Xiao Yun kindly gave her a taste of her own doings.
Jealousy burned in Lin Chang Lu's eyes as they walked past a pillar, she spotted a group of foreigner that was her acquaintance and grinned. Sooner or later Xiao Yun would stay beside Wang Li Lei as his fiancée and have to attend many meetings with people from in or out of the country. Since young Lin Chang Lu had been studying many languages in order to fill that spot and now she would show her that their lives are far apart from each other.
Leading Xiao Yun's to the side, Lin Chang Lu met the eyes of one of the people and smiled to have them coming toward her. "Ms. Lin, what a wonderful day to be able to meet you."
Xiao Yun heard English words coming from the side and turned to see a man and a couple of women standing in a group while holding a champagne glass. When they spotted Lin Chang Lu, their faces looked overly flattered.
"Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Emily, and Mrs. Claire. What a nice coincidence to be able to meet you al here. How is your evening?"
"It is very pleasant. However, I really didn't expect you to be here, Ms. Lin, I was just thinking of wanting to meet you. The dress from your company is as magnificent as always. Is this piece that you wore is a new one for this season?" Mrs. Anderson had her eyes fixed on the dress that Lin Chang Li wore.
"Yes, it is inspired by one of the Europe styles."
"I can't wait to buy it immediately, right darling?" She looked over to Mr. Anderson to receive the agreement.
"Is this dress also from your company? It's very exquisite the embroidery and the color of the dress look very elegant. This dress is far beautiful than the Orestes that I've seen from your company." Mrs. Anderson praised the dress that Xiao Yun wore.

Lin Chang Lu was also curious about the dress that Xiao Yun wore since a long time ago, thinking that Xiao Yun wouldn't be able to answer Mrs. Anderson's question, she took the pity to reply. "No this is-"
"Thank you very much for your praise to this gown, madam. Unfortunately, this is not a dress from Ms. Lin's company. It's from a company that is currently on hiatus, Azure Company." Xiao Yun replied back in English fluently, having no single mistake or tacky accent.
Lin Chang Lu's eyes widened in surprise. She had not expected a single grain that Xiao Yun would reply back in a perfect English speech.
Mrs. Anderson gave a long interested oh and asked Xiao Yun again in intrigue. "Azure Company, I think I have heard it before."
"The company have once participated in a fashion roadshow in Europe and Paris. As a fellow comrade in a loving fashion, I would guess you to have heard the name once." Xiao Yun seemed to be forgetting something and extended her hand smoothly. "Excuse me for forgetting to introduce myself. My name is Yu Xiao Yun."
Mrs. Anderson returned back the hand that she reached out and introduced herself back in delight. "My name is Georgia Anderson and this my husband Neil Anderson. As you have said I'm a person who loves fashion and I'm also the head director of the fashion roadshow in Europe branch."
"No wonder you have heard the company name. It is very pleasant to be able to meet you, Mrs. Anderson."
"The pleasure is mine too. About the company you mentioned before, do you perhaps have the information when it would come back from the hiatus?"
"Around next week I would say. Ah, you can have this-" Xiao Yun relayed a name card of the company.
"I can't wait to see the company to reopen again. From the dress that you wore, I couldn't wait to see more from this company." Mrs. Anderson couldn't hold back her love for the dress that Xiao Yun wore. Although Lin Chang Lu's dress was also beautiful, the dress that Xiao Yun wore had a very vivid color that would make the person who wore it to stand out in a good way.
And although she couldn't say she specialized in the embroidery, she could see the amazing skill in the embroiders around her dress. Using the color of gold, it added the touch of elegance and serene to the dress and she couldn't praise the dress with only beautiful.
Lin Chang Lu passed an irked stare at Xiao Yun, she had thought that it would be the perfect trap for the naive girl but who would guess that she wasn't only good at socializing with socialites, she could also converse well in English. There wasn't a single nervousness written over her face and that made the foreigner to feel relaxed when talking to the girl.
"Well then, we will be excusing ourselves first, Mrs. Anderson. Thank you so much for your help last time."
"Likewise." Mrs. Anderson replied.
Lin Chang Lu quickly escaped from the place after losing from her own plan. Just as they walked off from Mrs. Anderson, the rest of the Chinese socialites came rushing toward them. They had been too curious about the person who was beside Wang Li Lei this whole time but didn't have the courage to come and ask. When they finally found they saw Xiao Yun walking beside Lin Chang Lu, they didn't let go of the chance and swarmed.
"Good evening Ms. Lin. We haven't met for a very long time, I hope you are in a very good mood."
"Of course, Mrs. Su." Lin Chang Lu replied the opposite of how her heart was. She had wanted to go away and found some peace where she could think of a way and school Xiao Yun that her place and Wang Li Lei are a world apart different. Instead, she found herself to be trapped by the fake people of the party, making the grayish could above her to began to storm.
"Your dress is very beautiful, I have never seen this dress anywhere before!" Suddenly a woman praised the dress. Lin Chang Lu felt her heart lighten from the praise that the woman gave but heard Xiao Yun replying instead of her.
"Thank you very much for your kind words, ladies."
