Chapter 453: My Queen
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
After the women’s wear, it was the men’s wear and then the Haute Couture. Now all the women’s wear had almost been shown, and there weren’t many men’s wear left, so Tang Xi was in a hurry to change. Fortunately, the dress was not very hard to put on.
After she walked out in that dress, Li Manyan gasped… She came over and smoothed the dress for her, exclaiming, “President Tang, you look gorgeous! No wonder you are the last to go on stage! You’re way too beautiful! I have to say, you are a genius in design!”
Tang Xi smiled, stood in front of the mirror and let Li Manyan smoothen the dress for her. “This dress is not designed by me alone. President Chu designed it with me.”
Li Manyan exclaimed again, “God, President Chu is not only a genius in management but also in design! What a masterpiece! You look like a little fairy in this dress!”
“I’m flattered.” Tang Xi looked at herself in the mirror with a smile. This dress was beautiful indeed and she looked prettier in it. But… this dress was only suitable for specific people, so… Tang Xi wanted to cry although she was smiling.
This dress was not suitable for most people, which meant that even if someone liked it, she couldn’t wear it, especially when the buyer was plump… Then she would ask for a refund since she couldn’t put it on!
Just then, Chu Ling walked over. Seeing her in this dress, he led Tang Xi to sit down at the dressing table and used the cosmetics on the table to put on makeup for her as he said, “Don’t worry. I designed this dress not for it to be sold but so that others would create gimmicks. Then more people will notice our brand and its potential. After today, I will give this dress to a garment museum. So except you, no one else will have a chance to put on this dress, so no one will find its deficit.”

Tang Xi looked up at Chu Ling in surprise. “Oh?”
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi with a smile. “Are you doubting my makeup skill?”
The look from Tang Xi showed that was exactly what she was thinking. Chu Ling smiled. “This dress is designed by you and me. Since you’ve agreed to present it, I should also make a contribution.”
Then he continued to work on her face. Then he took a glance at Li Manyan who was looking at him with admiration blazing in her eyes, saying, “Keep an eye on the backstage. When the male models go on stage, help the female models change. Make sure they don’t make mistakes.”
“Okay, okay.” Li Manyan nodded and ran to the stage.
This dressing room was exclusive for Tang Xi, so only she was here.
When the male models all left the stage, the models for the Haute Couture were ready to go on stage. Tang Xi walked up to join the models. Everyone was fascinated by her beauty and some male models even wanted to come up to ask for her phone number, but they had to give up when they noticed that there was a man guarding beside her.
Li Manyan looked at Tang Xi in shock. “President Tang, I can’t believe it! How can you be so beautiful?!”
Tang Xi smiled and was ready to go to the stage.
This dress had a very high requirement on the wearer’s figure. Only Tang Xi who had a boyish figure fit it. Other girls would look fat in it. This dress hid the weaknesses of her figure and flaunted the attractive parts of her body. In this dress, she looked more beautiful, attractive and noble. She was in the limelight even in the crowd.

Ten minutes later, all Haute Couture wear had been presented and now it was time for Tang Xi to go to the stage. Tang Xi looked at Chu Ling and the latter winked at her and said, “We are counting on you.”
Tang Xi smiled at Chu Ling. “Since President Tang’s expectation is high, I surely can’t let you down.”
Chu Ling smiled, squatted down and helped Tang Xi wear a pair of crystal shoes. “Go, my queen.”
Tang Xi took a deep breath, gracefully stepped onto the stage and walked towards the runway.
The audience thought the show had finished and was about to leave. Carl and Lawrence looked a bit disappointed. Although The Queen’s clothes were not bad, at least much better than the common luxury brands, no piece of clothes did arouse their interests. Lawrence took a glance at the stage in disappointment, saying, “It seems that Alvin has disappointed us this time.”
Carl raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, when the music rang again. Then they heard people exclaim. Lawrence looked at the runway, only to see a stunningly beautiful girl agilely walked out of the backstage, and this scene made his heart miss a beat.
“Oh my god! Carl, tell me I’m not dreaming! Is this little fairy on the runway real? Is the dress she was wearing designed by The Queen?”
Carl was also stunned. He nodded. “I guess so. My God, she is so beautiful! This…” Carl looked at her again. “God, is this model… Xiao Rou? That Xiao Rou?”
Lawrence lunged to his feet. He shook his head and laughed. “Alvin never fails us. No wonder he insisted that I should give The Queen a special issue. It turns out that he had a trump card.”
“Oh, this is as beautiful as a dream. I swear this is the most beautiful dress I’ve ever seen! She is like a noble swan.” Carl raised his eyebrows. “I feel that my heart is touched.”
Lawrence smiled. “Your heart is touched by the dress or the girl?”
Carl shook his head. “My heart is touched by the girl in that dress, and my heart is touched by the dress put on that girl. I don’t know whether I’ll have the same feeling if someone else wears this dress, but I am sure that at this moment I’m moved.”
“Well, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Lawrence gazed at Tang Xi attentively.
Qiao Liang and Tang Xi’s friends who were watching the show were also stunned by her beauty, including He Wanyi. Although she had seen Tang Xi wear this dress yesterday, Tang Xi right now was more beautiful than she was yesterday!
