Real or Fake Missy : I Have a Piece of Godly Land Novel - Chapter 134
Chapter 134: The Dress
After class, Cheng Ling slowly cycled home. Since she had to go to the Cheng family’s home, she might as well go home later.
Therefore, the usual 20-minute journey became more than 40 minutes after the deliberate delay by Cheng Ling.
When she reached the Cheng family’s home, some people were already in the Cheng family’s banquet hall. He could see Xie Wan and Cheng Ming holding wine glasses, busy shuttling among these people.
Cheng Ling took a glance at the people inside, she didn’t recognize most of them.
When she reached home, Xie Ying wasn’t in the living room. She went to Xie Ying’s room and found out Xie Ying was busy picking out her clothes.
“Ling Ling, you’re back just in time. Help me see which dress I should be wearing today. I’ve been picking out clothes in front of the wardrobe all day.”
“Grandma, it’s not your birthday today. Why are you going through so much hassle to dress up?”
“You don’t understand. Old Master Cheng invited a lot of people for his birthday this time. Some of them are people I know from the past. Of course, I have to dress up nicely.”
The older generation always had the desire to compare. Cheng Ling nodded and helped Xie Ying pick out a dress.
Xie Ying was 63 years old this year. Due to her long years of work, her body was slim. Wearing this dress, she looked much more energetic and younger.
“By the way, the second young master of the Lu family came today and brought a bag. He said that the things inside are for you, so I didn’t open them. I put it in your room. You can go and have a look.”
Something for her?
Cheng Ling went back to her room and turned on the lights. A bag was indeed on her bed. The bag was quite big. It was in young girl’s pink and there was a bow on it.
A box was inside the bag. Cheng Ling took it out and was surprised for a moment.
The brand name was written on the box. It was the clothing store where Xie Wan had caused trouble that day.
Cheng Ling suddenly thought of something.
She opened the box and found a neatly folded dress inside.
Cheng Ling pinched the shoulders of the dress with both hands and picked it up.
The dress was pure white. It was in a single color but it was not monotonous at all.
The fabric of the dress was as smooth as silk. Even under the light of such an ordinary lamp, it still looked brilliant.
It was an off-shoulder dress with two suspenders on the shoulders. Thus there was no need to worry about the dress falling off.
The suspenders were in black, making the entire dress look a little playful and cute.
The waist-retracting design would also perfectly accentuate the graceful figure.
At this moment, Xie Ying had already changed her clothes and come over.
“This dress is so beautiful.” Xie Ying glanced at the opened box and bag on the bed. “This dress was given to you by the second young master of the Lu family?”
Cheng Ling nodded, feeling shy for once.
Xie Ying didn’t say anything. She had long noticed that Lu Qi’s attitude toward Cheng Ling was different.
Xie Ying took over the dress gently as if she was afraid that she might accidentally damage it.
“This dress is so beautiful. You will look beautiful wearing it. Go and change it.”
“But…”
Cheng Ling had initially wanted to wear a simple white blouse and jeans tonight.
Besides, she had never worn a dress since she was a child. She had often worked in the fields.
“What are you waiting for? Go! The second young master of the Lu family is so thoughtful. If you don’t wear it, Won’t you disappoint him?”
Cheng Ling was still hesitant. She put the dress on the bed and accidentally saw a card in the box.
She opened the card and there was only one sentence written on it: When I saw this dress, I thought to myself you would look beautiful wearing it.
The signature was Lu Qi.
It was the first time Cheng Ling saw Lu Qi’s handwriting. His handwriting was different from her delicate handwriting. It was a bit wanton and carefree, and the strokes were bold.
“What did he write? You’re so engrossed in it.”
Xie Ying leaned her head over to take a look, and Cheng Ling quickly covered the card.
“Nothing. Grandma, go out quickly, I need to change.”
“Okay, then change faster. Don’t be late. Otherwise, the people at the Cheng family will be dissatisfied again.”
Cheng Ling’s mind was still filled with the words on the card, so she just responded casually.
She picked up the dress and looked at it for a while before finally putting it on.
The size of this dress was well suited.
The young girl’s graceful figure was even more prominent under this dress. This dress didn’t make people look mature. Cheng Ling looked even more agile after putting it on.
