Redeeming The Golden Ticket To Life

Chapter 35: The Event

I drove us to the event venue. My heart has still not settled from the evening's confession. We just had our engagement. For some reason, even Xiao Wei too was giggling around. So I did the most sensible thing to do. I asked 'my wife' the reason for Xiao Wei's delight.

"Ohh That's because I incorporated his hand-made flower stitches in my dress design. Look here these flowers on the sheer fabric were stitched by him personally while he accompanied me during those days.

I found them to be incredible so I just incorporated in the final designs. One look and you know that they were specifically stitched for this particular dress. So when he saw the dress it delighted him and made him happy.

Why do you ask?"

I looked at the dress more closely, particularly Xiao Wei's handy work.

'I am so jealous.'

I am practically competing with my own son. We both wanted Bai Chang's affection as well as attention.

I realised my son just one-upped me.

I feel the pressure over me to increase by at least ten folds.

"Why are you so lost, this whole evening?"

"I am admiring my wife as well as our son's handiwork. Should we start training him as a designer?"

"No, let him choose as well as walk his own path."

"Hmm Sure."

"Are you serious?? You are jealous of our own son? Do you want to spend the rest of the week all alone?"

'Oh No, I got busted.'

"He spends more time with you and you love him more," I replied sullenly.

"Mr Hu Qiang, are you addicted to slavery? Do you have a masochistic tendency?"

"No, but even I want to spend more time with you if you allow."

"We will discuss this tonight."

"Are we going to spend our nights together?"

"If you don't want to, I would be happier."

"No, I want to." I quickly replied. Otherwise, I would be relegated to the guest room again on our return.

Unbeknown to us between our banters we reached our destination.

'The Grand Park Hotel'

Our event venue is its ballroom. Due to the huge scale of the event and the sheer amount of big names of Fashion and Showbiz industry attending, we arranged for a red carpet entry.

If I may say, the most sought out red carpet in the country.

You get invited to walk the carpet only if you managed to achieve something through relatively honest means.

I looked towards my mesmerising wife,(it seems I just couldn't get enough of her.) and drove the car to the parking area and walk towards the passenger seat to open the doors for 'My Queen'.

I offered my hands as I asked, "Are you ready to walk the aisle?"

She looked towards me in my eyes; all I can think of is how well the kohl accentuated her eyes, enlarging them. Drowning me in them. The blue tint on her wing lashes gave her a regal outlook, a Queen gracing the mortals.

"Let's go"

She held my offered hands and the stepped down the car, this one move of her made my heart palpitate.

Her aura changed, as she stepped down the car and came to step by my side; she turned into an authoritative figure like a literal queen. Looking down on others from her high grounds.

(Did I say it, I will still say one more time, I Love Her, and she is My Queen.)

I placed her hands in my arms and together we walked down the red carpet.

Our first public appearance as husband and wife.

Hopefully, not the last one either.

As we moved towards the red carpet, there are hordes of camera flashing with bright lighting trying to blind you while when viewed from a distance the glamour of this charged atmosphere attracts you towards it.

We walked towards the marked spot, while the lenses never left us for a moment,

I could feel the curious eyes of people looking at us.

They watched us as we glided through the Red Carpet and entered the hotel.

After we entered, we were ambushed by Donna at the gates.

She took a complete look of Bai Chang's outfit then turned to Master Shi, who was standing beside her.

"Cough it up, old man."

"After the event." Master Shi replied gently.

Bai Chang spoke up, "Did you people place bets on the dress design?"

"Yes, I bid that you would design a dress from the bespoke line that you told us about, while Master Shi bid on the fact that for this Fashion Show you would opt for a design in line to the collection."

"Ohh.. Interesting."

"Mr Hu, are you wearing a customised outfit for yourself?"

"As expected Master Shi's eyes are still the sharpest, they are designed and put together by Bai Chang here, it is also a part of our next season's exclusive bespoke collection," I replied humbly to Master Shi.

He turned to Bai Chang and said, "Good design, theme and presentation, after the event take some rest and then let's dive into it."

Donna pried her hands free from my grip and then left with 'My Queen'.

"Do not worry Mr Hu; Donna is taking her around to meet the respective industry giants."

"I understand, Master Shi."

"Fret not, she is talented, at some point she would have been exposed."

"Master Shi, please look out after her, while I greet a few people."

"Rest assured. Donna knows her limit."

"Thank you, Master Shi."

I left them and moved on to greet other people. While throughout the way people talked in hushed tones after I passed by them.

Bai Chang's seal of authority is flaunted to the extreme.
