Receiving the book from She Chao’s hand, Gu Jin casually glanced through a few pages.
She pulled over An Mingji, saying, "I want to custom-make a few outfits for my younger brother. There aren’t many requirents; as long as they fit his body shape, suit his skin tone, and feel comfortable to wear."
In Gu Jin’s eyes, An Mingji was already handso enough and didn’t need to rely on clothes; as long as the clothes were comfortable, that would suffice.
This was also why she brought him to get custom clothes made, simply for comfort’s sake.
Next, She Chao asured An Mingji and had an in-depth discussion with Gu Jin about styles, fabrics, and colors.
Since An Mingji was still growing, Gu Jin only ordered three suits for him.
One was light blue, one black, and another grayish-white.
The chosen design was a sketch Gu Jin drew on the spot, infused with the European and Arican styles she experienced in a previous life, breaking away from current conventional designs.
She Chao was extrely surprised, and directly asked Gu Jin if she studied fashion design.
Humbly, Gu Jin replied, "I’m a bit interested. I haven’t specifically studied it, just like to research won’s clothing in my spare ti."
Most of the cheongsams from National Beauty were designed by her based on her past life’s mories and styles that could be accepted in this era.
"You’re too modest."
She Chao was in the fashion business, so he could see through her modesty.
He asked, "Do the clothes need embroidery?"
Gu Jin glanced at the quiet young man beside her and casually said, "Embroider an ’An’ character on the cuffs."
"Alright."
She Chao agreed enthusiastically.
"The clothes need to be worn the day after tomorrow and require urgency; can Master She manage to complete them in ti?"
"..."
This urgent request left She Chao a bit dumbfounded.
"Miss Gu, the ti is too tight. If you need them the day after tomorrow, I’ll have to postpone all my work and rush through the night."
Gu Jin smiled gratefully, "Then I’ll trouble you, Master She. I’ll cover the rush fee."
Her attitude was friendly, yet commanding.
She Chao was helpless, knowing he couldn’t refuse. The guest before him was introduced by the eldest of the Wanqi Family, who specifically instructed him to treat her well.
With a helpless smile, he said, "Alright, you can pick up the clothes two days later."
"Thank you, Master She."
...
Two days later, in the evening,
Gu Jin and An Mingji arrived at the auction site.
Qiu Qianghai had been waiting at the entrance of the banquet hall all along, spotting Gu Jin and An Mingji from afar.
The reason they stood out in the dense crowd was simply because their appearances were so striking.
Putting aside their outfits, just their looks, which were enough to amaze most people, had already attracted many glances from those around.
These two were destined to be the highlight of the evening.
Gu Jin wore a side-slit, modernized black cheongsam.
Fashionable yet filled with classical grace, she exuded femininity without flamboyance.
This modern reinvented skirt was crafted with exquisite detail, using the finest threads woven by the most skilled workers at the National Beauty brocade factory, and after completion, the fabric was sent to Lu Jinrong, the top master of National Beauty.
Gu Jin provided the design sketches, and it was crafted by his hands.
As she walked through, Gu Jin’s attire and aura drew every gaze around her; won were staring intently at her... and her clothing with great envy and jealousy.
n were captivated, their eyes showing admiration and appreciation for the beauty.
Especially Gu Jin’s elegant and refined temperant, the subtle smile at the corner of her lips, gentle and serene, truly beautiful, making it hard for anyone to look away.
