The hotel where the organizer invited the guests to stay was very close to the venue. After Ying Ruxing and Ning Meigui settled in, Ning Meigui went out to get her clothes.

In addition to a set of out-of-season dresses that she had borrowed before, she also borrowed a dress from a designer of a niche brand.

The designer of this niche brand is not well-known in China, but is very famous abroad.

Especially at this fashion week, her clothes also have catwalk styles.

Ning Meigui returned empty-handed soon after.

They had already made an appointment, but when she went there, the designer was not there and the assistant refused to lend her the clothes no matter what. Ning Meigui made several phone calls but the other party didn't answer, so in the end, the matter was left unresolved.

What is there to be unclear about at this point? The other party changed his mind at the last minute, probably because he felt that Ying Ruxing was not famous enough.

"It's okay, just one set. I'm not famous anyway, and others won't notice it."

It’s not that Ying Ruxing couldn’t get over it. Things had already developed to this point and there was no point in blaming anyone.

Ning Meigui looked guilty. She had intended to promote her well, but it turned out like this.

"Okay, we're tired after flying for more than ten hours. Let's adjust to the jet lag and take a rest." She comforted Ning Meigui and took out the dress from the suitcase.

The assistant helped with ironing while Ying Ruxing sat aside with his eyes closed to rest.

Ning Meigui had no intention of resting as she was still thinking about how to find the dress.

She walked out holding the phone, and Ying Ruxing could vaguely hear her voice.

Not long after, when she was about to fall asleep, Ning Meigui shouted excitedly, "There is a way!"

"What?" Ying Ruxing raised his eyelids lazily.

"I just met Mr. Xu. He heard that you didn't have a suit, so he asked someone to send you one."

"It's on its way now."

Hearing this, Ying Ruxing immediately frowned and looked at her with a gloomy expression.

Ning Meigui rubbed her hands and said flatteringly, "I know you don't want to owe anyone a favor, but there's nothing you can do about it now. Favors can be repaid, but if you miss an opportunity, you'll forget it."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Xu Ningchen delivered the dress personally.

"Mr. Xu, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, Ruxing would have had to hide in the crowd this time."

Ying Ruxing pursed her lips and said as usual, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. I just happen to have some connections with the person in charge of this brand. It's just a small favor."

"By the way, when you're done, let's have dinner together."

Ying Ruxing hesitated for two seconds and nodded.

A man who eats someone's food is soft-hearted, and a man who takes someone's favor is thankless.

She has it all.

Xu Ningchen knew that she had something to do in the evening, so he didn't stay and left after delivering the clothes.

Ying Ruxing looked at the clothes in her hands and felt that it was too much of a coincidence.

Even if Xu Ningchen had cooperation with the brand manager, could he complete a set of high-end custom-made clothes in such a short time?

"Ask someone how much the dress costs, and when the crew's pay comes in, transfer it to Xu Ningchen."

Ning Meigui nodded.

Fashion Week started on time at six o'clock in the evening.

This fashion week was specially held at sunset, on the beach, with the afterglow of the setting sun.

The out-of-season dress that Ying Ruxing borrowed was of a neo-Chinese style, with a flat collar, a folded waist, and a winding hem. The crabapple blossom pattern extended from the chest to the ankles. The pink and white dress made her skin look as white as jade.

Although it is not the sexiest or most charming, it is the most distinctive.

At the fashion week, the styles are very different, but in general there are only two major types: one is exaggerated style, and the other is dress style.

Ying Ruxing's appearance attracted the attention of everyone present. Her dress with oriental charm stood out among the dazzling fashions in the crowd.

Her long, ink-like hair was tied up, revealing her fair neck and pink earlobes. There was no extra jewelry decoration. Her hair was tied up with a simple jade hairpin, and the earrings were also simple jade pendants.

Simple and elegant yet exuding a mysterious oriental charm.

Many photographers turned their attention to her, pressing the shutter buttons quickly to capture her every smile.

After the show, the organizers held a dinner.

It is called a dinner party, but it is actually similar to a sales meeting. Female and male celebrities wear high-end fashion and luxury jewelry to dine with the capital. The clothes and jewelry that are favored by the capital can be sold to earn extra income.

They smiled and made money, and both sides achieved their desired goals in a decent manner.

Ying Ruxing was also there. She came just to show her face. Ning Meigui said that the effect today was quite good. Many photographers took pictures of her and asked her to come to the dinner to make herself familiar to the audience.

But she was wearing out-of-season styles and not many people liked them.

The organizer arranged her to sit in the back, where the lighting was dim. Several businessmen were sitting at a long table, chatting happily.

Not long after Ying Ruxing sat down, another person came.

The light was dim and she couldn't see clearly until the man sat down and the familiar scent of pine wood entered her nose.

Ying Ruxing trembled all over and turned her head just in time to bump into his sight.

Shi Jinyuan frowned slightly, as if he was unhappy about sitting at the same table with her.

She suppressed the grievance in her heart and explained to him, "This time it was really a coincidence. I didn't know you would come."

"I know." He said in a light voice, "You are not yet capable of leading the organizers of this event."

Upon hearing this, Ying Ruxing didn't know whether to laugh or be sad.

Ying Ruxing's out-of-season collection was not considered high-end in terms of resources, and she had no intention of flattering anyone. She sat there for a long time, but no one was interested.

Soft and melodious music was played at the banquet, and people in twos and threes were dancing on the dance floor.

A female CEO sitting at the same table asked about the jade hairpin on her head.

She used fluent English to introduce the origin and meaning of ancient Chinese hair accessories to the other party, and told the other party that they were only sold in China.

The other party was obviously disappointed, but also said that he would go if he had the chance.

Shi Jinyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Ying Ruxing with an ambiguous look.

He suddenly remembered what Old Lady Lin said, her knowledge of antiques, and the fact that she knew Old Lady Jing and was Ying Sheng’s sister...

Shi Jinyuan didn't know what he was thinking about, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

"Beautiful lady, may I ask you to dance with me?"

Fluent English was heard in her ears, and before Ying Ruxing could react, a hand had already landed on her shoulder.

The man's hand rubbed gently through the clothes.

Ying Ruxing twisted her body to avoid him, met the man's undisguised gaze, and refused directly.

"I'm sorry, I can't dance."

"It's okay, you just need to hold me and I'll leave the rest."

The man's words were very blunt, and Ying Ruxing's expression changed.

He smelled strongly of alcohol, which made her feel uncomfortable, and she subconsciously leaned towards Shi Jinyuan.

The man's hand reached out again, but before it touched her, it was grabbed.

"She said she wouldn't."

"Sir, please be a gentleman and don't force yourself." Shi Jinyuan said in a cold voice.

He stood up holding the man's hand. He was half a head taller than the man and looked down at him with an unquestionable aura.

In an instant, the man's arrogance was instantly extinguished.
