126: EMPRESS

EMPRESS

"What?! My god! That necklace is the one and only precious gem from EMPRESS! How could she lose that?!"1

That necklace did not come easy. He had borrowed it from the director behind the president's back. If this were to be found out by his boss, he would end up in dire straits!

"Forget it. Let her come over first. It's still early, so we can go over to EMPRESS to select another gown." Qin Zhou had a plan.

Gu Xingze's extended Bentley parked at the entrance to Peace District. The expensive car drew much attention from the residents in the neighborhood.

This was a poor residential area, so the people in it had not seen such a luxury car before. They quickly gathered in one corner, gesticulating animatedly as they enviously observed.

Yun Shishi quickly got into the car, and it was soon on its way.

As they watched the car drove off, the neighbors started whispering to one another.

"Er? Isn't that the child from the Yun family?"

"Yes! That's Yun Shishi! I heard… she's Yun Yecheng's illegitimate daughter."

"Illegitimate child? I heard that she is the child he had with his first wife."

"Who can confirm if she's truly his daughter? In what way does she look like Yun Yecheng? This Ah Yun probably got cuckolded in the past and still helped others raise the b*stard child…"

…

The Bentley raced all the way to the capital's busiest shopping mall.

EMPRESS, a luxury fashion shop patronized by the socialites and movie stars in the capital.

The store was lavishly decorated. From Milan Fashion Week's top handmade dresses to Italy's range of luxury brands, EMPRESS was the capital's most well-known go-to fashion shop.

Not just anybody could enter the shop, and third-rate actresses would certainly not have the privilege of stepping through its doors.

This was precisely why, when Qin Zhou handed Yun Shishi over to the styling director, who only served superstars, Alan looked slightly sluggish.

"Agent Qin, what is this?"

"Alan, this is Xingze's companion," Qin Zhou explained with a smile, the expression in his eyes self-evident.

Alan naturally understood what Qin Zhou was getting at.

As the chief styling director, he had mingled with the rich and famous and knew many of them by heart, so he was stumped when presented with Yun Shishi, whom he did not know at all.

However, despite not knowing Gu Xingze's reason for choosing an unknown woman, since she was the superstar's companion, he would give it his best shot.

"Okay, leave it to me!"

He then turned to Yun Shishi with a gentle smile. "Miss Yun, please follow me."

Qin Zhou's interest was piqued when he noticed that one of the VIP rooms was locked. "Alan, you have another customer?"

He had just finished his question when the door to the VIP room was opened from the inside, and a man in a neat suit walked out.

Gu Xingze heard the shuffling noise and subconsciously turned to have a look. He was rooted to the spot.

It's her…

His handsome face froze.

Gu Xingze tried hard to mask his irk, but Yun Shishi still detected his slight shift in temperament.
