Chapter 657 The Customized Gown
Everyone in Yuncheng knew Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng’s relationship.
So after Lu Feng announced their engagement, it naturally drew lots of public attention.
Some of those people were waiting for Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng to invite them to the engagement ceremony.
Shao Tianze and Gu Changle were among them.
And Lu Feng didn’t disappoint those people.
Lu Feng had told Song Yunxuan about the engagement before. Though Song Yunxuan said that she didn’t want a wedding, she didn’t say there shouldn’t be an engagement ceremony.
So after discussing with Lu Feng, Song Yunxuan scheduled the engagement half a month later.
Half a month later, it was the end of October.
While waiting for the day of their engagement, Song Yunxuan kept a close eye on the Shao Family’s movements.
Miaomiao’s life in the Shao Family was not bad.
Meanwhile, Gu Yi was freer in Harbor City as he no longer needed to be restricted by Gu Changle and Shao Tianze.
In the half a month, Song Yunxuan once secretly went to Harbor City to see Gu Yi.
But she didn’t meet Gu Yi. Instead, she just asked about how Gu Yi was doing in Harbor City.
The bodyguards who were responsible for watching and protecting Gu Yi fulfilled their jobs. They told Song Yunxuan that everything was fine with Gu Yi.
It relieved Song Yunxuan.
With the scheduled time of their engagement coming, Lu Feng visited the Song Family more often.
Seeing that, Song Yunxuan asked Lu Feng, “Is it improper for you to visit me this often?”
Lu Feng smiled, replying, “Why is it improper? You are my fiancée, so isn’t it normal for me to come to see you?”
Lu Feng said it affectionately.
Song Yunxuan was wise enough to know that Lu Feng was just putting on shows to the Yuncheng media, which could give the public a false impression that she and Lu Feng were deeply in love.
Zang Linger had been living in the Song Family and could see that Lu Feng came more often.
When Zang Linger was available, she would accompany Song Yunxuan to drink tea with Lu Feng.
Two days before the engagement day, Lu Feng came over to drive Song Yunxuan to try on the white gown for the engagement ceremony.
But Song Yunxuan hadn’t returned from the Song enterprise yet.
Zang Linger was at home. Seeing Lu Feng, she said to him smilingly, “You come here a lot more often lately.”
Lu Feng gave Zang Linger a thin smile, replying, “Isn’t it normal? I’m Yunxuan’s fiancé.”
“Right. You should visit each other often before the marriage.”
Zang Linger smiled, continuing, “You don’t need to play-act. Yunxuan doesn’t like it anyway.”
Lu Feng learned that Zang Linger was incisive when hearing her words, so he said with a smile, “I enjoy it.”
Rarely had anyone expressed their thoughts this capriciously.
Then Zang Linger directly said, “Yes, as long as you like it. After all, willingness is priceless.”
Lu Feng nodded with a smile, “Yeah.”
“But I suppose Song Yunxuan will divorce you shortly after you get engaged, right?”
When Lu Feng heard Zang Linger’s words, his eyes crinkled, “You don’t need to be this straightforward. As for such things, we only need to know what’s what.”
Zang Linger nodded, replying, “Fine. I’ll keep it to myself.”
Lu Feng didn’t respond, but he smiled briefly.
Seeing that, Zang Linger didn’t quite know what to say.
Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng were both taking advantage of each other. Zang Linger knew that Song Yunxuan only loved Chu Mochen.
And Song Yunxuan’s heart died when Chu Mochen pa.s.sed away.
Zang Linger still felt that Song Yunxuan’s hasty marriage with Lu Feng was a recipe for disaster.
Though Zang Linger didn’t say it aloud, she wanted to sound Lu Feng out.
But hearing Lu Feng’s answer, Zang Linger learned that Song Yunxuan had already told Lu Feng she would divorce him after their engagement.
Otherwise, Lu Feng wouldn’t have replied that evenly.
“Song Yunxuan will never let an outsider be her child’s father. You also know that, right?”
“Yes.”
Zang Linger nodded.
Of course, she knew it.
“She has discussed it with me, and I’ve agreed.”
Hearing Lu Feng’s words, Zang Linger sighed, saying, “You are really a good man.”
Lu Feng was really nice because he understood what his position was in such a win-win marriage.
“Glad to hear that.”
Lu Feng wasn’t angry when being friend-zoned. He just smiled.
Just at that moment, Song Yunxuan entered the door.
Seeing Lu Feng and Zang Linger chatting over tea in the living room, she felt a bit surprised.
Then Song Yunxuan asked Lu Feng, “Am I interrupting?”
Lu Feng smiled, replying, “No.”
Zang Linger said, “Of course not. After all, this is your fiancé. I just want to remind him to treat you well after your engagement. Or I won’t spare him.”
Lu Feng nodded tacitly, saying, “She’s really a good and considerate girl.”
Lu Feng took the chance to praise Zang Linger.
Indefinable embarra.s.sment appeared on Zang Linger’s face when she was praised.
And she cast a stern glance at Lu Feng.
Sensing that, Lu Feng couldn’t help shaking his head.
Song Yunxuan could also see that they two were not praising but mocking each other.
So Song Yunxuan said, trying to lighten the atmosphere, “Pack it up. What brings you here, Lu Feng?”
Song Yunxuan came to the point.
Lu Feng stopped teasing Zang Linger. He said, “To drive you to try on the gown for the engagement ceremony.”
A week ago, Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng customized the white gown for the engagement ceremony.
Though a week was a bit short, the gown was delivered safely before the engagement ceremony.
It was the first time Lu Feng had held an engagement ceremony with a woman, so he naturally wanted his fiancée to be decked out in the headlines of all kinds of newspapers.
Hearing Lu Feng talking about the gown, Song Yunxuan nodded, saying, “Let’s go. I’ll try it on.”
Hearing that, Zang Linger also wanted to see the gown, so she said, “Can you take me with you? I also want to see what Yunxuan’s engagement gown looks like.”
Song Yunxuan made no objections. She said, “OK. Come on.”
“OK.” Zang Linger didn’t feel bad about being a third-wheel. She directly went out with Song Yunxuan.
Seeing that Zang Linger was walking with him and Song Yunxuan without embarra.s.sment, Lu Feng gently raised his hand and rubbed his brows.
It was the first time he had felt there were too many third wheels around Song Yunxuan.
Every time Song Yunxuan kept the appointment, she would bring Mei Qi or Xiao Hong, who were enough to make Lu Feng uncomfortable.
And now there was one more third-wheel, Zang Linger.
Lu Feng was vexed on seeing the three persons.
It seemed that Zang Linger was intentionally trying to make Lu Feng vexed. After following Song Yunxuan to the store, Zang Linger was with her all along.
It made Lu Feng unable to speak to Song Yunxuan in private.
When Song Yunxuan finally went to the fitting room to swap her clothes for the gown, Lu Feng said to Zang Linger, “Miss Zang, don’t you feel any embarra.s.sment?”
“Me?” Zang Linger replied smilingly, “I think you are more embarra.s.sed.”
Zang Linger was right about that.
Lu Feng was indeed more embarra.s.sed.
Because there were certain things that Lu Feng couldn’t speak to Song Yunxuan while Zang Linger was around.
Zang Linger seemed to understand what Lu Feng was thinking about, saying, “You can ignore my presence. When Yunxuan comes out in that gown, you can tell her directly whether she looks beautiful or not. I’ll not make any objections.”
Lu Feng let out his breath in a long sigh, looking at Zang Linger and asking, “You are here to make trouble with me, aren’t you?”
“Of course not.”
Zang Linger immediately denied it.
But inside her heart, she admitted it.
Zang Linger did come to make trouble.
As for Lu Feng, she was trying to make trouble.
But as for Song Yunxuan, she was not.
Because every time Song Yunxuan went on a date with Lu Feng, she would bring someone.
Didn’t it show that Song Yunxuan did not want to spend time alone with Lu Feng?
And what Zang Linger did was exactly what Song Yunxuan wanted.
Though Zang Linger denied it crisply, Lu Feng didn’t buy it.
Lu Feng wanted to continue the conversation.
But just at that moment, there came Song Yunxuan’s voice, “The gown is much more beautiful than I thought.”
“It’s not that the gown is pretty, but you are, Miss Song.”
While flattering Song Yunxuan, the manager of the store drew back the drapes in front of Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan was wearing a pretty gown like a white wedding dress. As the drapes were drawn back, Song Yunxuan gradually appeared in front of Lu Feng and Zang Linger.
At the moment Song Yunxuan showed up in a gown, both Lu Feng and Zang Linger were a bit stunned.
And Lu Feng was like being stupefied. Words failed him to express how he felt.
Seeing that Lu Feng just looked at her without saying anything, Song Yunxuan asked him, “What? Not beautiful?”
Zang Linger immediately came to herself, denying, “No, no, no. You look gorgeous in that gown and words failed us.”
Song Yunxuan chuckled, “Come on, you are just exaggerating.”
“No, it’s true.”
Zang Linger was being so serious.
Zang Linger was of n.o.ble birth in Harbor City and had seen quite a few celebrities.
Most of them were beauties.
However, she could hardly recall anyone who was as eye-catching as Song Yunxuan.
Seeing Song Yunxuan in a lace-embroidered gown, Lu Feng wheeled over and reached out to Song Yunxuan, saying, “You’re beautiful, Yunxuan.”
Seeing Lu Feng’s fingers, Song Yunxuan hesitated for a moment.
Then she reached out and rested her hand in a glove on Lu Feng’s hand.
Feeling that Song Yunxuan rested her hand on his, Lu Feng gently closed his fingers and pressed Song Yunxuan’s hand.
