Shocking! A Hong Kong socialite gave birth to three heirs to a wealthy family.

Chapter 105 Competition Attire Completed

The acquisition couldn't be finalized in a day or two. With Shen Wancheng's engagement imminent, she personally went to the Lan family with Shen Yao the next day to discuss the wedding dress.

When Lan Qin saw Shen Wancheng arrive, she assumed that Shen Yao had told Shen Wancheng about the completion of the competition costume.

She smiled and said, "Shen Yao really can't wait a moment longer. I was saying that I would check again today to see if there were any problems with the details, and then I would tell you tonight that the competition outfit is finished."

Before Shen Wancheng could speak, Shen Yao cried out that she was innocent.

"I kept it to myself all night and didn't tell my sister, but she said she wanted to come with me today."

Shen Wancheng smiled and said, "Shen Yao is right. I came here to talk to you about something else. I didn't know the clothes were finished. I'm still very surprised to find out now."

"Oh? So what brings you here?"

"My business isn't urgent, let's go check out the competition outfits first."

Shen Yao said with a smile, "My sister is also full of expectations."

Lan Qin said, "The clothes are in the operating room. Let's go. I hope they meet your expectations."

It's a sunny day, around 10 a.m., and sunlight is streaming through the window, falling right on the hanging wedding dress.

The shimmering brocade is pure white and bright, resembling gauze but not quite. Its color contradicts the red commonly used in Chinese wedding culture, so Shen Wancheng suggested that the shimmering brocade be trimmed with gold and red thread and made into long sleeves with a train.

At this moment, the sunlight shines on the shimmering brocade, a gentle breeze stirs, and the room is filled with brilliance.

Shen Wancheng stood at the door of the control room, looking at the phoenix embroidered on the floating brocade, so lifelike that it seemed to be about to take flight, which was incredibly awe-inspiring.

"Ms. Lan, your technique is truly exquisite."

Lan Qin said modestly, "It's all thanks to you for generously sharing your techniques with me, and also your designs; both are indispensable."

"Haha, we're both great, no need to be modest with each other."

Shen Yao said with a smile, "In short, with this dress, we will definitely win the crown."

Shen Wancheng approached the dress and admired it for a long time before speaking.

"The competition is in two days. I have already registered. There will be no problem with the process. Everything is ready except for one thing."

Shen Yao asked, "What's missing?"

Shen Wancheng turned around and replied, "To showcase models."

Shen Yao and Lan Qin exchanged a glance, and Shen Yao spoke up, "Wasn't it you who was supposed to wear it for the display?"

Shen Wancheng was stunned. "Huh? I didn't think about myself?"

Lan Qin chuckled and said, "Shen Yao and I both thought you would be the show model, so I made the sizes according to your measurements."

Lan Qin paused for a moment, then added persuasively, "You have a great presence; I think you'd be perfect as a model for this dress."

Shen Wancheng still wanted to refuse.

She never even considered being a model for the exhibition.

After all, she had never heard of any runway model who was only 164 cm tall.

Speaking of which, Shen Wancheng had heard that some people grow taller during pregnancy, and she hoped that she could grow another two centimeters. Shen Wancheng felt that women's height did not need to be too tall, but it was best to be over 165 cm but under 170 cm.

In short, Shen Wancheng felt that she was not suitable.

"I'm a bit short, should we consider hiring a professional model?"

Lan Qin said, "It's only a couple of days left. It won't be easy to find someone with a great figure and temperament who can match this dress."

"We should give it a try. I'll ask someone in the film and television industry to recommend me this afternoon."

Shen Wancheng had already made it clear that she didn't want to be a model, so Lan Qin didn't force her and nodded in agreement.

"also."

After Shen Wancheng looked at the dress, the three of them came out of the control room and talked in the living room.

Lan Qin then asked, "What brings you here today?"

Shen Wancheng took out an invitation from her handbag.

"Please attend my engagement party."

As Wen Nan's old friend and elder, Lan Qin had already been invited by Wen Nan.

However, the fact that Shen Wancheng sent this invitation to Lan Qin separately showed that Shen Wancheng was close to her, which made Lan Qin very happy.

Lan Qin accepted the invitation with both hands, opened it, and glanced at it.

She smiled and said, "I've met Gu Jinxing a few times. He's handsome and a good match for you. I'll definitely be there on time."

Shen Wancheng smiled calmly, "Because I had something urgent to attend to, I didn't invite Jinxing. Please don't be offended."

"How could I be surprised? I'm already very happy that you went out of your way to send me this invitation."

Lan Qin was unaware that she had only sent out two invitations for Shen Wancheng's engagement; this was one, and the other was sent to Li Su.

During her time in Hong Kong, Shen Wancheng didn't know many people.

Shen Wancheng didn't plan to send an invitation to Shen Mei, so she definitely wouldn't send one to Guo Tao, who was hanging out with Shen Mei, either.

To be realistic, Shen Mei and Guo Tao are now from different social classes than Shen Wancheng.

Shen Wancheng continued.

"I've come today not only to deliver your invitation, but also to discuss two other important matters."

Lan Qin's expression changed drastically.

"You said."

"The reason I didn't tell you before that I came here specifically to ask you to participate in the competition is because I felt that whether you agreed to my request or not, Shen Yao and I were willing to support you in participating in this competition, and we didn't want to use the double-sided technique as a condition for my later goals."

"However, I need to tell you about my wedding now. My initial idea was to collaborate with you on a clothing brand that would focus on high-end custom-made clothing, without any mass-market products."

"Ms. Lan, are you interested?"

Lan Qin didn't hesitate at all and spoke directly.

“I will do it. I said back then that you and Shen Yao have done a great favor for my Lan family. Whatever your request is, I will agree to it.”

Shen Wancheng reiterated, "This collaboration will be long-term. The haute couture clothing we sell may not all be handmade by you, but all of them must meet your standards. I hope you will make a careful decision."

“I understand. To be honest, at my age, I can guarantee that the production quality won’t decline, but the efficiency has definitely decreased.”

"Once the competition is over, we can officially cooperate. I can bring all my apprentices who have graduated to work at your company. Of course, their pay will be higher than that of ordinary technicians. Their skills are excellent, and I can guarantee that the quality of their products will be absolutely high."

Shen Wancheng's expression revealed a suitable surprise.

"It would be even better if your disciple could join us. Since he has met your graduation standards, his skills must be exceptional. We must treat him well with generous pay."

Lan Qin was also very happy.

Although her apprentices have graduated, apart from that wretched Li Gang, the others would call to greet her every year during holidays.

Lan Qin also knew about their current situation.

These people are indeed skilled, but nowadays many people are blindly worshipping foreign things, and traditional crafts in all walks of life are declining, especially in the clothing industry. There are far fewer people willing to pay high prices to make cheongsams.

Therefore, Lan Qin's apprentices are only getting by, far from what they were when she was young.

Lanqin is very happy that they now have a stable job.

"Then it's settled. Is there anything else?"
