Chapter 372: Chanel Show
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
After they checked the show field, Chu Ling went to have people build the stage and arrange the seats. Tang Xi and Qiao Liang went to watch the Chanel show. Tang Xi wore the latest released Chanel dress and limited-edition Chanel high heels that was gifted to Tang Xi by Chanel’s design director and had the initials of Tang Xi’s name on it.
Wearing the skin mask, Tang Xi restored her original identity. Qiao Liang was waiting for Tang Xi in the living room of the hotel’s room. The moment he saw Tang Xi come out, he was stunned by her beauty. He casually put the magazine on the tea table, came up to her and asked in a low voice, “Shall I have a stylist come over and do your hair?”
Tang Xi shook her head with a smile, saying, “I have my own stylist, but I don’t want to use a stylist this time.” She was wearing a skin mask. People wouldn’t find out if they didn’t get close to her, but stylist might realise it. She couldn’t be sure that the stylist wouldn’t find out her secret.
“Then how about your hair…”
“I’ve prepared.” Tang Xi smiled, casually combed her hair and summoned 008. At the next minute, Qiao Liang saw that Tang Xi quickly did a hair that perfectly went with her clothes with her own hands, and then began to make up. It only took her about ten minutes to finish making up. Then she put down her lipstick and smiled at him.
Qiao Liang was speechless. “….” It was the first time he had seen her do her make up so fast.
Tang Xi took a look at the mirror and was startled when she saw herself. 008 was simply magical! This make-up was perfect! She looked flawless! No one would find any flaws in her makeup and clothes.

Although her makeup and clothes were perfect every time she showed up in public, that was due to the efforts of countless stylists and she had to change into many sets of clothes. To her surprise, 008 gave her the effect she wanted in such a short time. And she simply looked perfect.
Seeing Tang Xi happily appreciate herself in the mirror, Qiao Liang smiled and asked, “Would you like me to go with you?”
Tang Xi hurriedly shook her head. “No!”
Qiao Liang, “Hum?”
Tang Xi said hesitantly, “You know, we can’t show up together!” Qiao Liang cast a questioning glance at her, and Tang Xi immediately got angry. She shouted, “I’m Tang Xi now! Not Xiao Rou! You came to Paris with Xiao Rou, but show up in a show with Tang Xi. Do you want to hit the headlines?”
Then Tang Xi grunted, “Besides, you will make a bad impression on Mom and Dad then!”
Qiao Liang smiled, raised his eyebrows and looked at her. Then he dragged her into his arms, looked down at her and said in a low and hoarse voice, “Bad impression?”
Tang Xi looked up at Qiao Liang and smiled, saying, “Don’t you want to meet my mom and dad? In any case, you have to gain my mom and dad’s approval to marry Xiao Rou, right?”
“That’s true.” Qiao Liang took a deep breath and said, “I have to make a good impression on my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I can disguise as your bodyguard and go with you.”
Tang Xi blinked, turned her gaze to Qiao Liang and said angrily, “Are you trying to ruin my image?! People are already gossiping about ‘Tang Xi and her bodyguard’! How can I take you to the Chanel show? I’m going there to watch the show, not to play lovey-dovey with you.”

“But I’ve decided. I won’t change my mind.” Qiao Liang said and touched the tip of her nose, saying, “You fell into a coma yesterday. Although you woke up quickly and didn’t seem to have anything wrong with you, I’m still worried about your health. If you don’t want me to go with you with the identity of Qiao Liang, then I will go with you disguised as your bodyguard. Choose one.”
In the end, Tang Xi had no choice but to surrender and took Qiao Liang to the show. Perhaps because she had disappeared from the fashion circle for some time, as soon as she got out of the car, she was warmly welcomed by the media even more so than other A-listers. The journalists surrounded her and Qiao Liang ignored the A-listers. The corner of Tang Xi’s eyes twitched. She took a look at her ‘bodyguard’ who stood beside her expressionlessly, and said in a low voice, “Hey, my bodyguard, take me into the show field!”
But the journalists wouldn’t give Tang Xi the chance to leave. They rushed up and hurled continuous questions at her. Listening to the questions asked in different languages, Tang Xi felt her head was spinning. She smiled and said, “I’m not the star of this show. You should pay attention to the models and the beautiful garments and jewelry. I believe today’s show is worthy of your attention and the design director will present us a perfect show.”
“Miss Tang, you look gorgeous today. Who is your stylist? Or is it because you are in a good mood that you look so beautiful?”
Tang Xi smiled and turned her eyes to the journalist, asking, “Do you mean I was not beautiful and not in a good mood before?”
The crowd burst into laughter, and Qiao Liang led Tang Xi to walk towards the show field, saying, “Excuse me.”
Tang Xi gave an apologetic smile at the journalists, and followed Qiao Liang into the show field. When they entered it, Tang Xi walked past the stars who were having their assistants and staff taking photographs for them, found her exclusive seat and sat down only to find that the one sitting beside her was Xu Fang. Xu Fang sneered and looked away. Just then, a designer came over and greeted Tang Xi with a smile, “Tang, long time no see.”
Some small stars immediately gathered over, and Xu Fang put on a smile and said hello to the designer. He was the Chief Designer of Chanel and was on good terms with the design director. Tang Xi stood up and smiled at him. “Lehr, it’s been a long time.”
“Director just said to me that you might not come. He must be excited to see you here. Come on, come with me and meet the Director. He has missed you dearly.” Lehr took Tang Xi’s hand and walked towards the backstage.
As soon as Tang Xi left, the small stars exclaimed, “Oh, how I envy her. These big shots are all her friends and she is so beautiful. It’s said that her clothes are all gifted by luxury brands, and she doesn’t need to spend any money on clothes. Even if she buys any stuff, it’s very expensive. No wonder she is the VIP of these luxury brands. They all want her to wear the clothes they design.”

Like many of the young men attending KU for the first time, his sole desire, above all else, was to become a member of The Brotherhood. He's heard the many stories and rumors surrounding this mysterious and secretive organization. Jacob is eager to peel back the layers and discover The Brotherhood's secrets, to wield its power, but will he be able to handle the truth that is their reality? Can he step thru that door and never look back? Those are just some questions he will face on his journey of self-discovery. Will Jacob be strong enough to see it thru to the end? Are you? _______________________ ***Content Warning*** This story focuses on gay characters and places them in sexual situations. Although the sexual content is not the story’s main focus, it does appear throughout, especially in the earlier chapters. Feel free to give The Brotherhood a pass if it's not your cup of tea. But if you give it a chance, it might surprise you. The story is not what you expect. I first posted The Brotherhood online in 2001 and finished it in 2013. Over the years, it developed a loyal following that has been waiting for a sequel for many moons. That time has finally come. I want to release a more updated version of TBH before dropping the new chapters for the sequel. I hope you enjoy it!
