CHAPTER 257: CHAPTER 257: WHOSE XIAO YUEYUE IS IT?

"Stick to your heart, being yourself is the best," Tang Yue said earnestly as she held Qin Anyu’s hand, not knowing the full extent of Sister An Yu’s story, but hoping that Sister An Yu could truly be happy and joyful.

In the evening, Qin Anyu and Tang Yue ended up chatting and simply shared a bed. The sheets and quilt covers had been changed by Tang Yue, no longer in that monotone color, but in her favorite warm shades of sunflowers, making the whole room feel warm and cozy.

The next day, Tang Yue and Qin Anyu went to the clothing store together.

"Brother Mo, little sister-in-law has gone out again," Li Wei said cautiously.

Li Wei thought that with the arrival of the little sister-in-law, she and Brother Mo could finally cultivate their relationship. However, the result was that the little sister-in-law left early and returned late every day, and apart from the food she brought back for Mo Siyu and Tang Jun when Tang Yue returned, they could only meet briefly, hardly able to have extended conversations.

Today, Mo Siyu got up early deliberately, but still didn’t get to see Tang Yue. His eyes darkened as he said, "Da Wei, take me to the office."

His leg was still healing, preventing him from driving outside, hence, the work from the office had piled up in front of Mo Siyu.

Li Wei looked at Mo Siyu in surprise and didn’t dare to ask more.

Star Bright.

The store began to see an increase in customers, but the styles of the clothes, sourced by Qin Anyu from other places, were not as luxurious as before, yet they definitely weren’t lackluster.

Tang Yue had called Tang Mingli yesterday, asking him to send over the drawings she had made previously from her room to Jing City.

"Sister An Yu, have you found the tailor?" Tang Yue inquired, ready to start producing clothes once the drawings arrived. By then, the entire Xingyao Clothing would transition to using their own clothes and would no longer import externally.

"We’re still in discussion," smiled Qin Anyu. "Don’t worry, Yueyue, the tailors I’m finding are all experienced and reliable. They definitely won’t hold you back."

Tang Yue nodded, then started to get busy. If the workshop was to start up, and Xingyao Clothing Store was to operate smoothly, these clothes were essential.

"An Yu." Zhao Rou and Cheng Ziqing had agreed to come early, and seeing the completely revamped clothing store, Zhao Rou just briefly looked at the clothes downstairs without finding anything she particularly liked. She and Cheng Ziqing naturally proceeded to find Qin Anyu.

"Rourou, Ziqing, you’re here," Qin Anyu was assisting Tang Yue and was delighted to hear Zhao Rou and Cheng Ziqing’s voices. "They are good friends I’ve grown up with since we were little, Yueyue, they’ve come especially for you."

Qin Anyu happily introduced them: "This charming and cute one is Zhao Rou, and this big... chested beauty is Cheng Ziqing."

"Qin Anyu, you’re proud of your small chest?" Cheng Ziqing instinctively straightened her chest, her impressive bosom compared to Qin Anyu was like heaven and earth.

"I..." Qin Anyu glanced at Cheng Ziqing’s, then looked at her own and couldn’t help but shrink back a bit.

"Hello, I’m Tang Yue." Tang Yue turned around, introducing herself. Today, for convenience, she wore casual clothing, her long hair tied up in a high ponytail exposing her smooth forehead, her bright smile carried a radiant and approachable aura, her sparkling almond eyes seemed to shine brightly.

"Wow, An Yu, I thought you were beautiful yesterday, but compared to the one in front of us today, there’s a big difference." Zhao Rou exaggeratedly circled around Tang Yue as she spoke. At first glance, Tang Yue was beautiful, but upon a second look, one would sense a tranquil quality about her, giving a feeling of peaceful years passing by.

That feeling, Zhao Rou didn’t know how to describe, but she couldn’t help wanting to get closer to Tang Yue.

"Sister Rou is also very beautiful," Tang Yue responded gracefully. Her gaze fell on Cheng Ziqing, who hadn’t spoken yet. Her chest...was indeed as Zhao Rou described, a big-chested beauty. If it were in modern times, she would probably reveal as much as possible and not hesitate to show those deep cleavages, but at this moment, the clothes on Cheng Ziqing were still quite conservative.

"You look very young, huh?" Cheng Ziqing crossed her arms over her chest, which inadvertently covered the fact that her chest was large. She looked at Tang Yue critically, "Are you over eighteen? Your designs from yesterday were very pretty, but do you know how many designs are needed to open a clothing store and a studio? Or do you think that designing a few beautiful pieces is enough to support a studio?"

"Sister Qiao," Qin Anyu quickly interjected, "It was I who asked Yueyue to collaborate. Don’t say it like that; I believe in Yueyue."

Qin Anyu was afraid that Tang Yue would be upset by Cheng Ziqing’s words, so she hurriedly explained.

Cheng Ziqing’s gaze remained firm, still pressuring Tang Yue.

It couldn’t be helped; given their status, too many people wanted to approach them, and Qin Anyu was too naive, so previous undesirable incidents had happened. Now, Tang Yue looked really young. Could she really handle everything with such beautiful clothes and her young age?

Cheng Ziqing knew fashion designers, but she had never seen one so young. Talent in fashion design is essential, but learning and experience are indispensable.

Designing a garment, from sketching on paper to the finished product, involves many complex processes. It’s not child’s play.

As for the money, Cheng Ziqing didn’t care so much, but Qin Anyu had recently become interested in clothes; what if chiding Qin Anyu hurt her feelings? How would they manage then?

"Yueyue, Sister Qiao doesn’t mean any harm; she just has a sharp tongue but a soft heart," Qin Anyu explained on the side.

But Tang Yue, the person involved, was always smiling gently, and even as Cheng Ziqing grew more aggressive, her smile seemed to deepen. She said, "I’m eighteen this year, Sister Qiao. I am aware of everything you mentioned. Perhaps you think I’m overestimating my capabilities, but I believe time will prove everything."

"Perfect, since you all are Sister An Yu’s friends, and as a promotion for my studio’s grand opening, I’ll give each of you a dress set for free," Tang Yue announced and then got back to work.

Cheng Ziqing felt like punching into cotton, looking dubiously at Tang Yue, her confidence seemingly boundless. Could she really have the expertise?

"Sister Qiao, I believe Yueyue can do it," Zhao Rou was very confident in Tang Yue, and Qin Anyu affirmed, "I do too. You have no idea, I think Yueyue is like a wizard."

Zhao Rou excitedly joined the conversation with Qin Anyu.

While Tang Yue worked, Qin Anyu and Zhao Rou stood by her side, and Cheng Ziqing didn’t leave either, closely observing Tang Yue’s skilled movements.

Zhao Rou’s initial interest grew increasingly as she followed Tang Yue around, almost like a little follower.

Causing Qin Anyu to exclaim, "Rourou, you’re not allowed to steal my Yueyue!"
