Chapter 23 (2/2)

“Secretary Liu, you need to take note. Print out all the popular phrases from the internet and make notes on them. Label them with their respective meanings. Then, send them to me.”

Secretary Liu was stunned. Soon, he thought that the CEO wanted to expand his business to the internet market so he had given an order like that to him. So, he replied solemnly, “Yes.”

It was the beginning of the month. There were a lot of meetings to attend. Pei Xiuyuan’s business covered a lot of areas. Surely, he was a busy man. It was the fifth day that he had not left with his wife or go home to dine with her.

Lu Man was the leader of a small team. She went to pick up her evening gown happily the moment she clocked out.

Both Hou Qingqing and Liang Feiyue were eager to see her in that evening gown. They accompanied her there.

“Wow!”

“Wow!”

“Wow!”

Lu Man changed into that evening gown and three excited voices were heard. They were from Hou Qingqing, Liang Feiyue, and the designer. They had felt that the evening gown suited Lu Man. In fact, it was beyond their expectations. She was indeed dazzling in that gown. She would surely capture everybody’s attention if she appeared in that gown.

Lu Man stood in front of the mirror and scanned herself. It was rather satisfying. It was just the dress she wanted.

It was Friday night.

They needed to attend the wedding the next day. Although they were satisfied with her dress, all of them were women. They shared the same taste. A man’s insight would surely be different. Luckily, Pei Xiuyuan did not stay overtime that night.

So, Lu Man wanted to show Pei Xiuyuan her dress.

After dinner, Lu Man went and changed into that evening gown when Pei Xiuyuan was watching a football game.

She even did a little bit of makeup when she was done. She even wore the heels she had prepared for that gown.

“Xiuyuan.”

She called and Pei Xiuyuan turned to look at her naturally.

He was stunned when he turned to look at her.

Pei Xiuyuan had seen quite a lot of charming women. He found them a bore. But, he had never stared at a woman like an idiot before. He was never as charmed as he was now.

Now, he simply stared at his wife like an idiot.

Lu Man was a beautiful woman. She was a high school sweetheart. She was pretty even when she did not dress up nicely. Now, she had appeared after making an effort to dress up.

Her evening gown was a beautiful red gown. It was a striking red. It was indeed a bright color. But, that color seemed inviting and sexy. If it was not suitable for someone, she might appear like a village girl or a loose woman.

But, it seemed like she was the only woman in the world who could be dressed in that kind of red when she appeared in that dress.

Her long and black hair flowed loosely behind her. Her white skin and her striking red dress gave quite a great visual impact. It was just like a plum blossom suddenly growing on the snowy land. It captured everyone’s attention.

“What do you think?”

“It’s gorgeous!” Pei Xiuyuan gave his appraisal without any hesitation.

Lu Man was relieved. She must be able to dazzle everybody there and become the main focus at the wedding. Wang Yunxi would regret inviting Lu Man to her wedding.

Pei Xiuyuan stared at her and scanned her from up and down. She saw her skinny white legs that were being exposed. His eyes darkened.

It was a dovetail dress. Her dress was long and wavy behind her but it was short up front. It was just slightly above her knee.

He soon lost focus on the football game. He got up and approached her.

“My dear, you are dressed up so beautifully to attend your ex-fiancé’s wedding, I’ll be jealous.” She did not dress up for him. Her beauty was not to be enjoyed by him solely.

She had never thought that he would think like that. Lu Man did not know how to respond to that.

“I’ll go and change now.” She did not want to appear awkward. She turned and went back to her room.

Pei Xiuyuan soon saw the secret of that dress the moment she turned away from him.

That evening gown revealed her beautiful back clearly though it did not expose her entire body. It outlined her beautiful back. He soon had a sudden urge to tear that dress apart!
