Mu Sensen regretted bringing Cen Shuang here. Originally, it was for homework and to gain some professional knowledge. However, she did not expect that they would spend the time waiting in front of this cabinet without even looking at the rest of the clothes in the exhibition or the runway show.
Cen Shuang turned and muttered, “I want to go to the bathroom.”
Mu Sensen hurriedly replied, “Go, don’t worry. I will keep my eyes on this. I won’t let you lose it.”
Cen Shuang nodded and turned to go to the bathroom. She did not look presentable right now. Even if she wanted to buy back this wedding dress, she needed to uphold the Cen family’s dignity.
Cen Shuang went to the bathroom. When she came back, she saw Mu Sensen pointing at the cabinet. She said angrily, “I just received a call. This dress was gone when I turned around.”
She had been watching it for the entire day, and had been gone for only five minutes. This was too much of a coincidence!
Cen Shuang’s face instantly turned pale. As expected, the phoenix coronet and gown were no longer in the display case. She could only ask the security guard here, “Where’s this exhibit?”
The security guard replied, “The owner of the exhibit came just now and took the exhibit back in advance.
There was a special passage for the transportation of the exhibit. Cen Shuang hurriedly ran out, hoping that she could still make it. Mu Sensen followed behind her worriedly. The two of them saw the box being moved onto the black commercial vehicle at the entrance of the transportation passage.
Cen Shuang hurriedly ran over. “Wait a moment, may I ask if the ‘Blue Comet’ from before is here?”
The middle-aged man in front of her was stunned for a moment. He sized Cen Shuang up and asked in surprise, “What do you mean?
Cen Shuang asked seriously, “The red wedding dress from the exhibit just now, the one with the flowing cloud crown, is it here?”
Only then did the man reply, “So this wedding dress is called the ‘Blue Comet’. Yes, miss, you are right. The dress belongs to my employer.”
So, he was just a butler. Cen Shuang could not help but ask, “Can you sell this dress to me? I can pay double the price.”
The man looked inside the car and replied politely, “I’m sorry, madam likes this dress very much. A gentleman does not take away what others like. You should not make things difficult for others.”
The black car drove away under Cen Shuang’s hopeless gaze.
Mu Sensen looked at Cen Shuang and advised her worriedly, “Shuang Shuang, don’t be sad. Let’s go home.”
Cen Shuang gave a sarcastic sneer. She did not have a home. The company was gone. Her parents had passed away. She could not even keep a wedding dress. Her home had long disappeared into thin air.
Ning Yong Cemetery.
A red car sped through the rain. The doorman took a look. The girl sitting in the car opened the door once the car parked. Soon, a figure came out of the car. The figure was wearing a blue dress. The girl walked slowly toward the cemetery in the rainy night. She did not have an umbrella, and soon, the rain soaked her clothes. The autumn wind rustled leaves under the night sky, bringmg with it the rain, making her look particularly desolate.
The girl deliberately walked towards a tombstone. She stood in front of it and looked at the woman in the photo who had a gentle smile on her face. She said through cracked lips, “Mom, I’m sorry. I said that I was going to get married in that dress, but I didn’t manage to. I even lost it.”
After Cen Shuang finished speaking, tears welled up in her eyes. However, the rain hit her face, blurring her tears and making it impossible to see her weak side. Cen Shuang looked at the man’s name, etched onto the tombstone. She muttered, “Dad, I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of mom. But now that she can be with you, you guys should be doing very well as companions for each other, right? My sister and I are doing very well. Has she come to see you guys? She’s divorced, but you don’t have to worry because the Lu family is giving her a lot of money. She can live comfortably. Forgive me for not coming to see you guys for so long. Don’t be angrywith me. I just don’t dare to visit you. I’m doing very well. Dad, mom, I’m married. I’m sorry for not bringing him to meet you. I didn’t tell him that I came to see you guys. My mother-in-law is very good to me. I also have a sister-in-law who is a few years older than me. She takes good care of me and often gives me gifts. The Zhuang family is very good to me. My mother-in-law gave me the car that’s parked at the foot of the mountain. No one has hurt me at all It’s just that I didn’t keep the things that you guys had before you died. I’m a little sad about that. Don’t worry, I’ll stop crying soon. I just wanted to come and see you guys. I just feel that you guys are still alive and by my side. Your daughter is very strong. I will definitely take back the Cen family’s house and bring you guys home with me. I miss you guys…”
In the late autumn and early winter night, the wind and rain had become bone-chilling. She seemed completely numb. After she voiced out the bitterness in her heart, she said, “I should go back. If I don’t, he’ll be anxious.” She blinked her teary eyes as she spoke..
