Chapter 573 Analysis
Mu Chen did not mind being embarrassed as long as his grandmother was happy. When he returned to his room, he suddenly thought something and asked, “Song Ning, you already have a wedding dress. Why don’t we get Anran and the others to make one in a similar style for Jiahui?”
Song Ning pursed her lips before she said with a smile, “Look at what you’re saying. What do you mean by making one in a similar style? Marriage is an important thing; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. How can we be careless? Of course, I’ll get Anran to design a wedding dress for Jiahui, and my wedding dress can be used as a reference for hers.”
Mu Chen smiled sheepishly.
After a moment, realization dawned on Song Ning, and she asked, “Despite your words, you don’t want Jiahui to wear the same wedding dress as me, right?”
Mu Chen only smiled, but he did not say anything
Song Ning patted Mu Chen’s hand and allowed Mu Chen to hug her waist as she softly and solemnly said, “The wedding dress that my mother made for me is one of a kind. No one can imitate it. I can’t even imagine how much time she spent on it, sewing the pearls on the dress one by one.”
Mu Chen placed his chin on Song Ning’s shoulder and said, “I’m really looking forward to seeing you in a wedding dress. Why don’t we bring the dress back home first so you can look at it often?”
Song Ning knew Mu Chen was afraid she was sad so she tried to change the topic. She thought about it for a moment before she said, “Why don’t we bring it back and put it in Zhuang Ji? Let Anran have a look. Perhaps, she’ll be able to draw inspiration from it.”
Mu Chen nodded as he said, “That’s a good idea. I’ll hire some guards to guard the store and insure the dress.”
Song Ning felt like she was going to have a headache when she heard Mu Chen’s words. After a moment, she compromised and said, “Alright, alright. I’ll listen to you, and keep the dress at home.”
Mu Chen said, “That’s even better. Anran can come over to have a look if she wants to. We can’t keep such a precious thing in the store.”
Song Ning was quite happy seeing that Mu Chen was so cautious about the dress.
After Song Ning and Mu Chen retrieved the wedding dress and a few things from the safe, they brought the dress home.
The others could not help but sigh in amazement when they saw the dress for the first time.
Jiang Jin said with a hint of regret, “Your mother’s craftsmanship is second to none in this world. What a pity. She must have loved you so much to prepare such a wedding dress for you. Song Ning, you’ll definitely live happily for the rest of your life after suffering so much.”
Song Ning and Jiang Jin hugged each other emotionally.
After everyone left, Song Ning’s gaze fell on the empty box. She still could not understand why her mother left her an empty box.
Mu Chen, who seemed to have thought of something, pulled Song Ning to the couch before he said, “Ningning, recently I found out that someone’s trying to buy Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual from Ning Zhe at an exorbitant price. Previously, it’s not that Ning Zhe didn’t suspect Ye Xin. He knew that it could only be you or Ye Xin so he did not care. He only wanted a puppet that trusted him. What he truly wants is to gain control of Zhuang Ji so he can obtain the embroidery manual. However, I’ve never heard you mention anything about an embroidery manual.”
Although Song Ning was not surprised by Ning Zhe’s purpose, her heart still could not help but turn cold. She truly did not know what to say about that person’s greed. She said in a low voice, “I know about the embroidery manual, but I don’t know where it is. Even Lawyer Yang didn’t say anything about it. Now that you’ve mentioned it, I do think it’s strange. Logically speaking, the embroidery manual is the most important thing. The wedding dress holds my mother’s feelings for me, but the embroidery manual is different. It’s a priceless treasure. Where would my mother put it? Who would she entrust it to?”
Mu Chen said, “I don’t think she’d entrust it to another person. Did she have anyone she could fully trust? Think about it carefully. Perhaps, she had left clues for you. I think this is the most likely scenario, don’t you think so?”
