Chapter 322: I don’t Wanna Hear That (II)
The bride came to SHE for trying the wedding dress on with Qin Muxuan the next day.
The back of the gown was cut open and replaced by a stretchy transparent layer of carnation which was embroidered with a string of pearls running down the back along the spine.
These changes added seduction to the dress which was worthier to be named “Pearl”.
Gazing at the ready-made gown, the store owner exclaimed, “Ms. Qin, have you studied costume design? Even a professional might not modify the dress in such way.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Especially the string of pearls, the gown will be plain if you remove a pearl while pompous if add one. That brings out the crucial point!”
“You’re giving me far more credit than I deserve.” Qin Muxuan gave him a modest smile, “Design has a universal principle. I just master that and apply it. Besides, George has done an excellent work. What I do is to add some flavors.”
The owner, who was amazed by her artistic talent, sighed, “You’re too modest. You can’t make the dress better without sturdy knowledge.”
They had a chitchat out of courtesies. Then, the owner took photos by using a single-lens reflex camera.
The live stream gave rise to a heated discussion online.
“Is it better or worse? I’m not specialized in design. Can some professionals tell me?”
“Well, I only know the gown looks more stunning than before.”
“As an exhausted designer, I’m startled. She really does a good job! Generally, we often widen its waist, but I didn’t expect that… It’s so gorgeous! I’ve learned from her! Thanks! I’m Qin Xuan’s fan now.”
“It’s perfect! She doesn’t change the original style, but add more flavors! Qin Xuan must be a hidden designer. I respect her!”
“Well, keep bragging and bouncing. I’m afraid that the show has asked others for help. If Qin Xuan really knows about design, she will advertise that. She will never wait until now.”
“Jesus! Anti-fans think everything is fake! It’s a live stream. How can she cheat?”
@GeorgeStroker: Qin Xuan and I graduated from the same school.
“George? Is it real? What the fuck!”
“For God’s sake! I know it! Qin Xuan’s great!”
George’s words proved that Qin Xuan was adept in design. Because of that, Qin Xuan had more followers. Her fans won the war of words against antis for the first time.
Jian Xi referred to George by using Qin Muxuan’s account on Weibo delightedly. They then followed each other.
This moment was recorded and posted on The Hotel’s official account.

Gu Zijin finally came back. He arrived at the wedding party in a mazarine suit on time.
He slowed his steps when he saw Qin Xin and Qin Xiaobai to be the flower girl and the page boy. The man became dove-eyed.
When he caught the sight of Qin Muxuan out of the corner of his eye, his eyes were filled with affection. Gu Zijin strode towards her. Holding her hand, he led her to a patio.
“What are you doing, Gu Zijin?” Qin Muxuan stared at him. Wrath surged in her heart. Scowling, she tried to get rid of him.
Noticing that, Yin Youting was about to rescue her. However, Gu Zijin stopped him, “Leave us alone. We need a private talk.”
Gu Zijin looked down at her eyes and said in a low voice, “Qin Xuan, let’s talk about Xin.”
His words petrified her. She glanced at Yin Youting to stop him from coming up, and followed Gu Zijin to the uncrowded patio in silence.
“Spit it out.” Turning her back to him, the woman put her hands on railings.
“Is Xin my daughter? Is she the baby you carried three years ago?” Gu Zijin’s eyes were glued to her. He was unwilling to miss every expression on her face.
Qin Muxuan’s heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t show it.
She couldn’t lose Qin Xin!
“Well, you must read lots of stupid romantic stories. I have a record from the abortion clinic.” She tilted her head. Sarcasm overflowed from her eyes.
Gu Zijin pursed his lips, “I’ve seen the DNA test results.”
Qin Muxuan could hardly maintain her smile, but she insisted, “It’s easy to falsify a report.”
“I can easily find the truth by testing her DNA.” Gu Zijin took off his coat and wrapped her, “I just wanna hear the truth from you.”
He looked so confident, which reminded Qin Muxuan that he had taken Xiaobai from her many years ago. Her eyes turned red out of the blue.
“Gu Zijin, is it funny to watch me lose everything?” She roared in a low voice, “I only have Xin. She’s my only family…”
While speaking, she could no longer hold her tears back. Streaming down her face, they fell onto the ground.
Gu Zijin felt that there was a knife cutting his heart. He pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him. “Xiaobai and I are not your family?” He asked in a hoarse voice.
“Muxuan, I’m not here to take Xin away from you. I just…”
He swallowed the word “reunion” when thinking of her hostility to him. Overwhelming emotions almost ate him up.
He closed his eyes and took in a deep breath, “I hope you wouldn’t stop me from getting close to her.”
Qin Muxuan couldn’t understand. She was like a hedgehog scrunching herself up into a ball and erecting her hair. “And then? You will take her away as you did to Xiaobai?”
“I don’t plan…”
Before he could finish his words, Qin Muxuan cut in, “But your family won’t allow your daughter to stay outside.”
She glared at him, “Your promise is worth nothing!”
‘You have eaten your words too many times.’
Her words hurt Gu Zijin badly. He was heartbroken.
The man’s eyes bulged. Holding her head, he pressed his lips against hers and bit her, so as to stop her from throwing harsh words to him.
Qin Muxuan didn’t struggle. Acting like a dead body, she didn’t refuse him.
Gu Zijin’s eyes became grimmer. He bit her harder. As she cried out because of pain, he slid his tongue into her mouth to enchant her. Qin Muxuan then couldn’t gather her wits.
After a long time, he loosened his grip.
“Qin Muxuan, I don’t wanna hear that.” He ordered possessively with red eyes.
However, he was beseeching her.
The woman relented, but she turned hard-hearted as she thought of Qin Xin.
She rubbed her lips violently with the back of her hand. “You force me to do so!” Qin Muxuan sneered.
