Chapter 383: Work Photos
Song Mian did not mean to use his power to suppress people or engage in the specialization.
This incident was not wrong on Yun Xiangxiang’s part from the get-go. They could not stop and wait for the police to arrest the people directly.
In these special situations, Song Mian did not feel the need to go through the procedures.
She did not stop him, of course. She was not at fault, and this was He Wei’s friend’s car. It would not be good if they involved him, not would it be great to have a demerit recorded.
After settling this matter, she still followed the agreement to let He Wei send her to meet Deng Yang to finish her promised work.
She looked at Song Mian, who was left all alone at home before she left. Even if he still smiled and looked the same, she still felt guilty somehow.
She ran back and threw herself into Song Mian’s arms, her slender arms hanging from his neck, “Something went wrong with Sister Yang, I may be delayed a little longer. Help me send the diamonds to MonRoe and take the Star of Peace on the way back.”
Although they borrowed a lot of jewelry from MonRoe this time since there was more than one theft in the film, they had to take away the Star of Peace themselves while the other companies would use their transportation channels to send the rest to China.
Song Mian felt inexplicably humored and warm by her tone that seemed like coaxing a child. It was as if she was worried that he would be pitiful if she were playing with others.
He could only respond with a good-tempered, “Okay.”
She finally walked away satisfied, as if she could get past her good conscience.
Deng Yang was still in the store. It was not yet time to go to court, even if the hospital sued. She did not commit murder or arson, so she still had her rights to personal freedom.
“Apologies to have worried you, I will take care of this.” She remained calm as if nothing happened.
She was a veteran that had been through so much. Yun Xiangxiang could not tell for a moment whether she was successful or if she was relieved.
But Yun Xiangxiang did not follow up. Deng Yang invited all the photographers, and the preparations were done. Even Zhou Jie rushed there from the hotel.
She took Yun Xiangxiang to see the outfit, “This gown is so beautiful!”
It was a bright red gown, at the bottom was a large irregular skirt. It was a little bit of a European court style.
On its back, it had a pattern of luxurious peony flowers like paper-cutting, and it looked like a peony flower in full bloom on its back.
It was glamorous and luxurious. Yun Xiangxiang liked it even from only seeing the back. Then she walked towards the front.
Its front was a tube top with a circle of diamonds dotted around the waist. On the left side of the chest area was paper-cut peonies stacked in layers. There were also diamonds decorating the sides of the peonies.
“This is also designed for you. It was done not less than two days ago. I plan to send it to you when you attend your next awarding ceremony.” Deng Yang let someone take it down, “Try it on, we will take some pictures. I will print it and hang it out after your debut.”
Listening to Deng Yang’s words, it was as if she was completely unbothered by the allergic issue, and that she was confident that the other party could not sue her.
“I’ll take you to see another one.” Deng Yang ordered people to take off Yun Xiangxiang’s gown and brought Yun Xiangxiang to her personal workshop.
Yun Xiangxiang was shocked by the wide hemmed skirt. This gown was completely like the robes of an ancient imperial queen.
With gold as the base, the seven-color thread embroidered phoenix was lifelike, spreading its wings in flight. Every detail was gorgeous to the extreme.
It was like a magnificent cloak, with a concealed buckle on the front. There was a body-hugging short skirt designed with gold silk, which was about the length of the middle of her thigh. This dress would be a moving luminous body when it was worn.
“There are a few more design drafts that have not been implemented yet. They are all prepared for you.” Deng Yang handed her drafts to Yun Xiangxiang.
There were various styles, all mixed with Chinese style. Every piece was quite delicate.
“There is nothing comparable when Sister Yang makes a move.” Yun Xiangxiang liked every set, “However you don’t have to prepare so many sets for me, Sister Yang. I have two sets a year.”
“It may be almost the same now, but not necessarily in the future.” Deng Yang disagreed. She was just planning before the need arrived.
A film would not necessarily only participate in one Film Festival. They might even participate in more than two or three Film Festivals. A particularly excellent work could most likely let one receive so many awards that their hands turned limp.
All of Yun Xiangxiang’s films were assured of quality. Moreover, the output was considered high. The most important thing was that she was lucky. Her films had not faced any disturbances, delayed broadcast, nor being oppressed.
Aside from He Xingzhou having some accidents in “The King’s Plan.” However, they were overwhelmed by surprises, and this instead promoted the film.
Therefore it was hard to foresee Yun Xiangxiang’s future. Deng Yang could not help but smile, seeing how Yun Xiangxiang seemed to feel like she profited from being able to work with Deng Yang, when in fact, it was the other way around.
However, the two skipped the business pleasantries but hurried the shot since Deng Yang knew that Yun Xiangxiang did not have much time.
This was just for the visual. Furthermore, the previous two times that Yun Xiangxiang had been styled, the stylist would do a shoot for her. Deng Yang asked to see the film and selected a few of them.
That was a red carpet look. This time, they helped Yun Xiangxiang shoot a few socialite-styled dinner party looks. Four sets were just enough for the visuals.
It was only about eleven o’clock after the shoot. Deng Yang mentioned that she had not treated Yun Xiangxiang to a meal before and wanted to bring her out for a treat.
Yun Xiangxiang and He Wei did not decline either, because it happened that there were things they would like to inquire about.
While waiting for their dishes, Yun Xiangxiang asked after much consideration, “Sister Yang, have you found the cause of the issue about the fabric allergy?”
“I have guessed it.” Deng Yang did not evade the question, “No one but him could do it.”
Deng Yang could tell that He Wei the person she suspected to be, but she did not want to be misled by her subjective thinking and insist that it was that person. If it were not for them, she would have missed the best opportunity to catch the real culprit.
So she immediately came back to investigate the insiders, and there could only be two problems with the gown.
One would be that there was a spy around her that sabotaged her; the other was that the gown left her area of control and something went wrong.
She checked internally as fast as she could and made sure no one was harming her people to help outsiders, so it was the latter.
The latter person was able to imitate the dress to this extent that even she almost wasn’t able to differentiate its authenticity. It could only be that scum.
“How are you going to face it?” Yun Xiangxiang still wanted to ask.
She did not mean to pry into Deng Yang’s privacy but was worried that Deng Yang would suffer a loss. Deng Yang’s ex-husband was not just an ordinary person. His plan was elaborate.
Moreover, he handled the timing quite right. He did not sabotage her just as her brand was being established.
Because at that time, it was not painful for Deng Yang, who had absolutely nothing. It would only arouse her fighting spirit even more.
It just so happened that Deng Yang had hit a certain achievement. He was aiming to destroy her confidence.
