Shan Yue carefully took out the gown that Zhou Xuan had brought from the cabinet and went to the fitting room to put it on.
The unexpected beauty shocked her. She looked at her face in the mirror and felt completely refreshed. At the same time, she looked dignified and virtuous.
The corners of Shan Yue’s lips curled up into a smile. She gently stroked the material of the clothes. It felt completely like muslin and looked very relaxed and gentle when she wore it. It was indeed Zhou Xuan’s mother’s favorite clothes when she was alive.
Wearing this dress also represented a legacy. Since she had already decided to be with Zhou Xuan, she had to replace his mother and accompany him through the second half of his life. They would support each other and grow up together.
Suddenly, the phone on the table vibrated. Because the table was made of wood, the sound was especially obvious.
Shan Yue walked out of the room and saw that the caller ID was Zhou Xuan.
She picked up the call without hesitation.
“Don’t panic, President Zhou. There’s still two hours before the gala starts tonight. No matter how slowly 1 tidied up, I can still make it in time.”
At first, Shan Yue thought that Zhou Xuan was here to remind her of the time, so she instinctively said these words. “Besides, my place is very close to the gala. It’s only a ten-minute drive. There’s no need to be so anxious.”
Zhou Xuan suddenly realized that the two of them were already together, but Shan Yue still called him President Zhou. This gave him a strange feeling.
“Shan Yue, actually, my initial name was Zhou Shuoxuan. Later on, I treated Shuoxuan as a nickname and changed my name to Zhou Xuan.”
Only Zhou Xuan’s family knew about this, but he still told Shan Yue firmly because he had long treated Shan Yue as family.
“Since we’re already together, you can call me Zhou Xuan or by my nickname. It makes me feel awkward when you call me President Zhou now.”
After hearing Zhou Xuan’s words, Shan Yue felt that his words made sense and immediately changed her mind.
“Actually, I didn’t call you to rush you. I know you’re a time person yourself, so you definitely won’t be late. It’s because I’ve prepared a more practical gift for you. It’s already waiting for you at the door of your company.”
There was a hint of mystery in Zhou Xuan’s words, but he did not intend to hide it. Instead, he said directly, “With our identities, it’s inevitable that we will often participate in public events in the future, so you can’t drive that Ferrari every time. It doesn’t match the atmosphere of the event.”
Shan Yue nodded thoughtfully at the other end of the phone. She had indeed not noticed this in the past. If she was going out alone, driving a sports car was indeed fine.
However, just as Zhou Xuan had said, it was a gathering of famous people. They usually drove large business cars.
Before Shan Yue could reply, Zhou Xuan spoke again. “I’ve already asked the chauffeur to drive the company’s new car over. He’ll send you to the venue of the gala. After that, the car will be yours.”
“Then 1 thank you for your kindness. You’re still considerate,” Shan Yue said.
“Why are you thanking me? This is what I should do.”
Zhou Xuan’s deep voice sounded very pleasant. “I’ve already told the chauffeur in advance. When you arrive, he’ll bring you to your room first. There are shoes I prepared for you inside. I’ll look for you in the room later. The two of us will enter the venue together.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to your arrangements.” Just as Shan Yue and Zhou Xuan were on the phone, there was an urgent knock on the door. “Shouxuan, go and prepare first. I suddenly have something on. I’ll go over after I’m done.”
“No problem. You go ahead.”
Zhou Xuan did not say anything else. After all, both parties were no longer children. They had to report their schedules at all times. They were both pillars of the Federation’s central city. They definitely had a lot of things to do..
