Chapter 801: Her Husband Was Definitely Far from It
“Well, you’re born and bred here, aren’t you?” Aries Ahol beckoned her over. “Quick, take a look at the main show outfit I’ve designed for you. You’re the opening and finale this time. You must be made beautiful. Look, isn’t it luxurious and suits you?”
s.h.i.+ Jin’s eyes lit up at the sight of the costume.
Aries Ahol lived up to his reputation as a fas.h.i.+on genius. The clothes he designed were indeed very stylish.
She could already imagine what she would look like in it.
Aries Ahol called his two female a.s.sistants over to help s.h.i.+ Jin change. “See if there’s anything that needs to be altered.”
When s.h.i.+ Jin came out, he clapped his hands and praised, “Perfect, perfect!”
It was hard to tell if he was praising his own design talent or s.h.i.+ Jin. Perhaps it was both.
“No need to change anything. No need at all. Excellent.” Aries Ahol was pleased.
“Then I’ll come over when you’re sure of the time,” s.h.i.+ Jin said with a smile. She was also very pleased with the main show outfit she was wearing.
“Can’t you talk to me more?”
s.h.i.+ Jin smiled and sat down. “Then let’s have coffee again.”
Aries Ahol shrugged. “What a surprise. I’ve only just arrived and I’ve already received news of your marriage. This is the wedding present for you.”
s.h.i.+ Jin accepted it graciously. “Thank you.”
She had a good chat with Aries Ahol. When s.h.i.+ Jin left, she had changed into her own clothes.
She stepped out. At the same time, Yue Xiu and Wen Qian were making their way inside.
“I heard this time that Aries Ahol chose the same model for the main show and finale,” Wen Qian said. “That’s rare on a lot of shows. I have to fight for at least one of them.”
“I didn’t prepare much of a gift for you this time that you’re back from abroad. As a friend, I’ll try to help you convince Aries Ahol,” Yue Xiu said.
The two had always been close and on good terms, so Yue Xiu was naturally willing to help Wen Qian.
At Aries Ahol’s level, Wen Qian and her agent were actually not up to his par. This time, Yue Xiu had to introduce her to Aries Ahol.
Wen Qian nodded. “It’s a good thing I have you, Yue Xiu. Otherwise I wouldn’t have the opportunity to come and fight for it.”
“Friends don’t talk about such things.”
The two of them walked forward and saw s.h.i.+ Jin coming out. An old man dressed very fas.h.i.+onably sent her out, their actions friendly.
Wen Qian recognized him as Aries Ahol.
And Yue Xiu recognized s.h.i.+ Jin.
Yue Xiu frowned. Why was s.h.i.+ Jin here?
s.h.i.+ Jin walked over and ran into them.
Wen Qian recognized s.h.i.+ Jin too.
Yue Xiu greeted her. “s.h.i.+ Jin, are you here to see Aries Ahol?”
“Yes.”
“To fight for the main show and the finale?” Yue Xiu asked with a smile.
s.h.i.+ Jin looked at her in surprise. “Fight for it?”
As if she heard a funny joke.
Yue Xiu immediately saw the true meaning in her eyes and said in disbelief, “Are you the main show and the finale?”
s.h.i.+ Jin felt that Yue Xiu had many misunderstandings about her.
She raised her eyebrows blandly, a slight mocking glint on the end of her eyes. “What else could I be?”
s.h.i.+ Jin rarely walked the catwalk anymore unless she wanted to. She had only agreed to Aries Ahol because she had known him for a long time.
Wen Qian was also surprised. Aries Ahol has already decided on someone? And it’s s.h.i.+ Jin?
Wen Qian had originally looked down on s.h.i.+ Jin. As supermodels, their status and everything else had been built step by step on the stage.
Although s.h.i.+ Jin had indeed partic.i.p.ated in very impressive shows, in their eyes, s.h.i.+ Jin was ultimately just an actor and a celebrity.
In the modeling industry, many people did not treat s.h.i.+ Jin as a compet.i.tor and looked down on her non-professional background.
Therefore, Wen Qian had never expected that s.h.i.+ Jin would be the main and finale of Aries Ahol’s show.
Yue Xiu was also surprised. “s.h.i.+ Jin, can you handle so many things at once?”
“I don’t think Miss Yue needs to worry about that, right?”
Yue Xiu choked.
Wen Qian couldn’t help but say, “s.h.i.+ Jin, are you that s.h.i.+ Jin who caused a commotion about your marriage some time ago? I haven’t congratulated you on your marriage yet.”
“Thank you.” s.h.i.+ Jin heard the sarcasm in her words, but she accepted it politely.
She was congratulating her on her marriage. She certainly didn’t object or mind.
Wen Qian said again, “I wonder who your husband is. When will you bring him out for everyone to see?”
“Who are you to me that I should bring my husband to you?” s.h.i.+ Jin asked.
Wen Qian: “…”
s.h.i.+ Jin said flatly, “My husband is busy. He doesn’t have the time to meet just anybody.”
With that, she headed straight out.
Both Wen Qian and Yue Xiu were annoyed.
“What kind of background does this s.h.i.+ Jin have to be so arrogant?” Wen Qian asked.
“Her family isn’t completely without background, but it’s been in decline for a long time. They slipped out of the four major families and are nothing,” Yue Xiu said disdainfully. “This husband probably doesn’t have anything. With s.h.i.+ Jin’s personality, if this husband of hers is very powerful, do you think she would still hide it and not market it? Compared to your husband, her husband is definitely far inferior. He’s not even worthy of carrying your husband’s shoes.”
Wen QIan smiled blissfully at the mention of her husband. Yue Xiu was right. Her husband was formidable. He was of mixed race, an investment elite on Wall Street, and his family was a family of U.S. state senators.
She had already marketed her husband several times. The outside world was full of envy for her happy married life.
‘Let’s go and see Aries Ahol first.’
***
After s.h.i.+ Jin came out, she drove away.
Just as she drove out, a figure walked out from the side and almost collided with s.h.i.+ Jin’s car.
s.h.i.+ Jin hurriedly stepped on the brakes. She immediately got out of the car to check.
A young girl had fallen to the ground, the thing she was holding falling as well.
“Are you okay?” s.h.i.+ Jin went to check on her.
“I—I’m fine. I—I’m sorry. I wasn’t paying attention to your car…” She quickly apologized. “I’m sorry.”
s.h.i.+ Jin picked it up for her. “Are you sure you’re not hurt?”
“Yes, yes, I don’t think I’m hurt.” She shook her head. She was a little timid, but she actually looked very elegant.
A light rain had started to fall, but she didn’t take an umbrella. The drops wet her hair, making it cling to her head in a pathetic way.
s.h.i.+ Jin turned and took an umbrella from the car. She pressed it into her hand.
The girl froze for a moment, then clutched the umbrella tightly.
Seeing that she seemed fine, yet not completely fine, s.h.i.+ Jin couldn’t decide what was wrong with her.
s.h.i.+ Jin left her her a.s.sistant’s business card. “Go back and get a checkup. If there are any problems, call this number.”
