Chapter 437: Models
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Qiao Liang followed Tang Xi’s gaze and then said with a straight face. “I don’t know who she is.”
Tang Xi, “…You don’t know who Karolina is? She used to be the Number One supermodel. The fashion brands all wanted her to join their shows. Victoria’s Secret even begged her to be their endorser. How can you say you don’t know who she is?”
“Should I know who she is?” Qiao Liang frowned. Did this darn girl know what she was talking about? Did she hope for him to pay attention to other girls? With this in mind, Qiao Liang scowled.
Tang Xi blinked. She was just surprised that Qiao Liang didn’t even know who Karolina was. By rights, Karolina was an ideal girlfriend to all men. Even Xiao Sa used to say that his ideal girlfriend was Karolina who was hot as hell!
However, seeing Qiao Liang’s unhappy look, Tang Xi burst into laughter. She reached out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes. “Then who do you know among these models?”
Qiao Liang took a helpless glance at Tang Xi. “None.”
Tang Xi’s eyes had a sly gleam. “Very good. I’m happy to hear this.”
Qiao Liang glanced at her and took Tang Xi over to Chu Ling. Seeing Tang Xi, Chu Ling raised his eyebrows. “Oh, you’ve finally come. Are you satisfied with the models?”
“You’re my idol!” Tang Xi gave him a thumbs-up. “Seriously, you are my idol! You can even invite Karolina to our show? I bet the cast of our show will be the strongest in this Paris Fashion Week.”
Qiao Liang’s face darkened when he heard Tang Xi’s praise. Noticing Qiao Liang’s reaction, Chu Ling burst into laughter. He suddenly wanted to make a joke of Qiao Liang, so he pulled Tang Xi towards him, put his arms around Tang Xi’s shoulder, looked at Qiao Liang and said provocatively, “Hey, Young Master Qiao, you don’t have anything to do? Why do you follow our President Xiao all day long? Are you afraid that President Xiao will dump you?”

Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes and stared at the hand put on Tang Xi’s shoulder, snapping, “Let her go!”
Tang Xi, “…” My Young Master, can’t you see that Chu Ling is teasing you? Why do you take a joke so seriously?!
Chu Ling shrugged and said with a smile, “Why should I? Now it’s work time. You can go now. We have to do our work.”
Tang Xi was speechless at Chu Ling’s lame joke. She patted Chu Ling’s hand and said with a smile, “Hey, stop teasing him! You know he gets jealous easily. Aren’t you afraid of being hunted by him?”
“Well, if he hunts me down, I’ll run away for life. Then who will manage your company for you?” Chu Ling glanced at Qiao Liang and raised his eyebrows, asking, “Him? Come on, he doesn’t even have the time to manage his own company. He hasn’t even gone to see the show field of the Qiao’s International Group! He certainly won’t have the time to manage your company.”
“So you’re sure Qiao Liang can’t do anything to you?” Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Chu Ling.
Chu Ling shrugged and looked at Tang Xi. “Don’t you think Qiao Liang is so cute when he gets jealous?”
Cute!
Tang Xi tried hard to hold back laughter. Yes, she had the same feeling! She also thought Ah Liang was so cute when he got jealous.
“I’ll count to three.” Qiao Liang stared coldly at Chu Ling as if he was going to swallow Chu Ling alive.
Chu Ling still didn’t take his hand away. Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes and stepped forward when a model suddenly called Chu Ling. “Derrick, come over here.”
Chu Ling took a look at Qiao Liang, released Tang Xi’s hand and walked towards that model.

Tang Xi looked helplessly at Qiao Liang whose face was all dark. “I doubt how you can make friends. Why are you so mean to your friend? He was just joking. Why did you take his joke so seriously?”
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi. “Do you think I was not joking?”
“My Young Master, please, you almost punched him up. You didn’t look like you were joking at all! Do you think I’m stupid?” Tang Xi looked helplessly at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi and smiled. Looking at Chu Ling who was surrounded by a group of women, Qiao Liang said, “You don’t understand how we make jokes to each other.”
“Alright, I don’t understand.”
Tang Xi and Chu Ling helped the models try on the clothes who were all very satisfied with these clothes. The Queen’s designs were bold yet ingenious, perfectly integrating the essences of Eastern and Western garment cultures. These clothes fitted both Easterners and Westerners very well.
Tang Xi was also satisfied with the effects.
Now there was only one featured set of clothes that hadn’t been tried on. There were five featured set of clothes in this show. Tang Xi planned to let He Wanyi wear one of them, so she reserved this set for her.
This set of clothes was designed by Tang Xi and Chu Ling together, and she sewed the clothes with her own hands. This set of clothes was of Oriental style, so she wanted to choose an Asian model to wear it. Li Wen and Zhai Xue had worn some featured sets of clothes, so she wanted to reserve it for He Wanyi.
“Do you want to let He Wanyi wear it?” Chu Ling knew He Wanyi well. He frowned. “This set of clothes was designed by both you and me. I don’t think it suits He Wanyi. How about you? You can wear it. I’ve watched the promotion clip. I think this set of clothes is suitable for you. Why don’t you endorse for your own company?”
“Then you can also save the endorsement fee.” Chu Ling jested.
Tang Xi was amused by Chu Ling’s words. “Yes, you made a point, but I don’t have any fans. Even if I endorse for The Queen, there won’t be many people buying our products. Sister Wanyi has many fans and she is surely much more experienced than me on stage.”
“Walking the runway is different from taking photos. I bet He Wanyi is not suitable for this dress. Unfortunately, she is not here today. Otherwise, you would know this.”
Chu Ling was very devoted to this fashion show. From the accessories to the models’ makeup, he arranged for everything himself. Even a single screw spike on the stage was selected carefully by him. He would not allow anything to go wrong in his show field, let alone to let a model put on a dress not suitable for her.
Tang Xi frowned and looked at Chu Ling. “I’ll bring the dress to my hotel. How about letting Sister Wanyi try it on tonight?”
Sister Wanyi is probably worrying about that scandal…

Artemis
"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.
