Sweet Heart in Honeyed Desire - C45
Despite of Tang Mi's bold words, she was still too nervous to sleep until the day before the party.
She rummaged through her wardrobe, but found no dress suitable for the occasion. She pursed her lips in frustration.
Although Yu Xin had helped her pick out a lot of designer clothes last time, they were all casual clothes that she normally wore. If she wore casual clothes to attend such a high level of party, would she be considered as being impolite?
It was not until Yu Yi called and told her that she would be getting her dress ready for tomorrow that she was relieved.
She lay still for a while, then got up again and crept into Fu Xin's room. She pushed aside her quilt and whispered, "Little star, little star …"
Fu Xin was woken up by her. She opened her mobile phone to take a look. It was 12: 03 in night, and she was immediately infuriated. "Tang Mi, is there something wrong with you!?"
"What do you mean by not sleeping at night?"
The corner of Tang Mi's mouth twitched as she sat down on the bed. "I'm so nervous for tomorrow's party. I'm even more nervous than when I participated in the college entrance exam."
Fu Xin rummaged in the drawer of the bedside table and handed her a business card. "Here, look for him."
Tang Mi glanced down. It was Doctor Zhang's business card, the same one she had given to Fu Xin.
Tang Mi: "…"
Fu Xin lay down to sleep again. "I have to work as a laborer in your restaurant tomorrow. Can't you take pity on me this lovely flower?"
Tang Mi blinked. "You still want to distribute leaflets tomorrow?"
"Young Master Luo said there will definitely be a lot of customers tomorrow at Qixi Festival. He lets me go to the kitchen to help wash the dishes!"
Tang Mi: "…"
She thought for a moment and said, "Actually, with your external conditions, you can also become a waitress in the front hall."
Fu Xin said agitatedly, "That's right, I said the same thing. But Young Master Luo said my professional skills aren't strong enough. I'm only fit to wash dishes in the kitchen!"
Tang Mi: "…"
"Well, what he said makes sense."
She patted Fu Xin's head before leaving the room. "Wash some more dishes and work hard tomorrow, so you will get rid of the pain as soon as possible."
Fu Xin: "…"
She was going to find a job!
After the Qixi Festival, she would find a job!
The next day, the two left for work together. Qi Xi was already rather busy day, and Tang Mi still had to attend the party in the evening, so she had to head to the restaurant earlier to prepare more pastries for today's sale.
There were indeed more customers coming to the restaurant today than usual. The shop manager said that there might be more customers tonight, so everyone should get ready to work overtime.
But Tang Mi no longer had such worries. Yu Yi found a reason to ask Tang Mi out at 3 PM.
The colleagues in the dining room watched the Bentley as it disappeared, spreading their imaginary wings.
Yu Yi's car drove all the way to the center of the city and finally stopped outside a working room called the Goddess's Kiss.
When Tang Mi got off the car, she was shocked by the name on the door. "The Goddess' Kiss?"
"Isn't it An Yi's private studio?"
An Yi is an internationally renowned stylist of clothing, and is also the private stylist for star king Mo.
Yu Yi's expression did not change at all, as if this was no different from an ordinary barber shop. "You also know about An Yi?"
"I made an appointment with him and asked him to do a simple styling for you. "
Tang Mi: "…"
A simple styling of her could be done in the small barber shop.
Did she need to come here and ask an internationally renowned stylist to do it?
At this moment, Tang Mi could clearly see the two golden words on top of Yu Yi's head —overbearing CEO. Oh, no, he was rich and willful.
Yu Yi saw she still stood in front of the door and gave her a puzzled look. "What's wrong? Don't you like it here?"
"An Yi was known as a magician. His work is not bad."
Tang Mi: "…"
Yu Yi's evaluation of the famous God An was "not bad".
She held Yu Yi's hand, and said with a joking smile. "Well, if he doesn't do it well, you're going to let him go bankrupt."
Yu Yi was stunned for a moment before he lowered his eyes and laughed softly.
The door to the Goddess's Kiss was pushed open by someone. A fashionable looking beauty walked out and said to Yu Yi with a smile, "Mr. Yu, why are you standing outside?"
"Master An is already waiting for you. "
Yu Yi slightly nodded, leading Tang Mi inside.
An Yi, who wore a pink shirt, was sitting in front of the mirror on the dressing table. Seeing Yu Yi pulling a woman in, he smiled and asked, "Mr. Yu, is this the female lead of today?"
Yu Yi nodded."It's a small business party. Don't make it look like a star for a red carpet."
"OK."
An Yi laughed. "But you have to formally introduce her to your family, so you can't be too casual about it."
He sized Tang Mi up before his gaze finally landed on the necklace on her neck. "It's a very unique necklace. I will choose a dress for you to fit it."
"Thank you, thank you."
Tang Mi was somewhat nervous as she had read about An Yi on the forum before. She didn't expect him to make her into a model one day.
This was truly the treatment of a Heavenly King Mo.
Before An Yi called Tang Mi away, Yu Yi added: "Do not show your back, the dress length
must be below the knee."
An Yi: "…"
Every time a man made such a request, he wanted them to find a curtain and wrap it around his female companion.
In the end, An Yi chose a blue dress for Tang Mi.
Her hair was tied up in a simple bun, and the rest of her long hair let it fall freely.
After finishing her makeup, Tang Mi followed An Yi down the stairs. Yu Yi looked at Tang Mi for a moment of absence before holding her hand. "I'm honored to have such a beautiful female companion."
Tang Mi smiled, mimicking his tone, "I am also honored to have such a rich male companion."
Even though An Yi hadn't dressed up too much for her, the pay for him was calculated on minutes. With such a simple appearance, it must have been worth quite a lot.
Actually, the small barber shop downstairs could still make such a style after some effort.
Tang Mi looked at Yu Yi as he took out his black card. This was what she thought.
The small party that Yu Yi mentioned was not really a small one. There were at least half of the wealthy businessmen in A City, but this wasn't important to Tang Mi as she didn't know any of them anyway.
All she had to do was to deal with Yu Yi's family.
Ever since she and Yu Yi entered the venue, they had attracted countless gazes of ridicule and inquiry. Tang Mi felt that these rich and influential people were no different from ordinary people when it came to gossiping.
Yu Yi had been holding Tang Mi's hand the entire time. He lowered his head and whispered into Tang Mi, "The two in front are my parents, and the ones standing beside them is my Second Uncle and Third Uncle."
Tang Mi nodded. She took a deep breath and adjusted her facial expression.
Yu Yi held her hand more tightly, and said in her ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The indifferent tone made Tang Mi feel less nervous.
Yu Yi brought her over and introduced Tang Mi to the four people who were chatting together. Tang Mi greeted them one by one.
Yu's father frowned and turned his face away, obviously dissatisfied with the way Yu Yi had brought Tang Mi here, but he didn't want to flare up.
More than half of City A's entrepreneurs were gathered here, Yu Yi was bringing her here, and tomorrow it would spread through the community.
By doing this, he was telling everyone about his relationship with Tang Mi.
Yu's mother sized up Tang Mi a few times and squeezed out a smile from beginning to end.
She didn't expect that Yu Yi would officially introduce her to the two of them. She chose this time to introduce them and didn't give them any path of retreat.
Second Uncle and Third Uncle didn't have much of a reaction and even started chatting with Tang Mi.
Second Uncle asked, "Which school did Miss Tang graduate from?"
Tang Mi pulled up a smile and said, "The Normal University of A City."
Second Uncle nodded, and did not look down on Normal University: "Then how did you become pastry cook?"
Tang Mi said, "Because I've always liked roasting, I went to France to study it systematically."
Second Uncle said, "Young lady, you are quite bold."
Tang Mi giggled.
Beside him, Yu's father finally couldn't help but stare at Yu Yi and said, "I don't agree with this daughter-in-law!"
The smile on Tang Mi's face stiffened, and Yu Yi was pulled her towards his side. "I brought her here today to introduce her to you. Whether you agree or not won't affect my decision."
"You …"
Yu's father was a little excited and wanted to say something, but he was stopped by a look from his second uncle.
Yu Yi greeted them and then left with Tang Mi in tow.
Tang Mi turned around to take a look. Yu's father still had an angry look on his face. She pursed her lips and looked at Yu Yi, saying, "Your father doesn't seem to like me."
Yu Yi turned around and looked at her. "I'm the one who's going to marry you. I'm the one who's going to spend the rest of his life with you. It's enough that I like you."
Those beautiful black eyes were exceptionally bright. Tang Mi met his eyes and unexpectedly felt an unprecedented sense of relief. Even her parents had never given her any.
Her ears were delicately pink, and she grunted Yu Yi the shameless man. "Who said I am going to marry you?"
Yu Yi raised her eyebrows and said, "Today, everyone here is a well-known person in A City. They all saw me introduce you to my parents. If you don't marry me, who else can you marry?"
Tang Mi: "…"
How scheming Chief Yu was. He could kill two birds with one stone.
Bai Ce led Bai Xiao forward to chat with them, looking at them happily.
Yu Yi knew that Bai Cee was doing this on purpose. He wanted others to see the scene, in order to tell them that the relationship between the Bai family and the Yu family had not deteriorated because of this matter.
For the Bai siblings was able to do this, apart from feeling grateful, Yu Yi felt a little sorry in his hearts.
He clinked his cup with Bai Ce and said, "I will agree to whatever price you want for the next purchase."
Bai Ce raised his eyebrows. "Aren't you afraid that I'll make your Yu's bankrupt?"
Yu Yi smiled but didn't answer.
Bai Ce smirked. "I'm not used to seeing you laugh."
Bai Xiao laughed and said to Tang Mi, "Uncle Yu and Aunty Yu might not be able to accept this for the time being, but sooner or later they'll figure it out."
Tang Mi nodded, she looked at Bai Xiao who was wearing a white dress. She was about to praise her a little when she heard a familiar voice from the side, " Tang Tang, why are you here?"
Tang Mi was stunned for a moment. When she turned around and saw the person behind her, she was even more stunned. "Mom?"
