94 Black Baccara Rose (1/2)
Just as Hui Yin was deliberating her choices, a maid came inside her room carrying a large white box with a red velvet bow on top.
She handled it like she was almost afraid to touch it, and gently put it down on Hui Yin's bed.
”Madam, sir told me to give this to you.”
Seeing her questioning look, the maid answered in a polite voice.
Hui Yin shifted her gaze from the white box lying on the bed to the back of the departing maid that was now closing her bedroom door. So...Lu Shen had already arrived. Unable to resist her curiosity, Hui Yin pulled the end of the ribbon and slowly untied it.
As Hui Yin lifted the dress, she gasped in surprise. Without thinking twice about it, she flung off Sister Su's yellow dress and put on the one inside the box.
There was no denying that it was a haute-couture level design. With a Sabrina neckline that showed off her slender neck and shoulders, the dress ended just before her knees, flaring like a vintage A-line skirt. It was deep red in color, but the shade was so dark that it could almost be mistaken as black.
Somehow it reminded Hui Yin of a Black Baccara rose, and against her milky white skin, the dress was like a blooming flower atop a snowy mountain peak.
”Perfect,” she breathed.
Hui Yin had done her hair in a simple waterfall braid, leaving some tendrils to frame her face.
With a last look at her reflection on the mirror, she grabbed her purse and went out of the room.
She couldn't find Lu Shen on the ground floor, so Hui Yin made her way into the wide courtyard. A black Maybach Exelero waited there, while Lu Shen, dressed in a black suit, leaned carelessly against the car, as if he were lounging in a doorway.
