If you can't see it, go ahead and buy a few more chapters to see it. Please forgive me for causing trouble. When the next morning, she got up early again. Today, she has a party to attend. Open the curtains, the sun is shining outside, it's a good weather.

After having breakfast, cleaning the house and taking a shower, Cheng Ji'an opened the closet and began to choose clothes for himself. I just chose for a long time, and there is no suitable one. This month, she purchased several sets of clothes, but they were all for everyday wear, so they couldn't make it to the scene at all. Although Dean Wang said it was only a small gathering, he also asked them to prepare well.

There are also expensive and elegant versions, but they are the two bodies brought out by the Ji family. After buying other clothes, she never wore them again, she kept them aside, including the bag and the shoes.

The phone rang suddenly, and at first glance it was Zhan Ming.

"Cheng An'an, good morning." Zhan Ming's voice was a little lazy, as if he had just woken up.

Cheng Ji'an laughed, "It's still early, it's almost noon now."

"Really? I came to my relatives last night, and I played late..." Zhanming explained, and then said, "Have you picked out your clothes? If you didn't go shopping together in the afternoon, I thought about it for a long time and it didn't seem appropriate. clothes."

Cheng Ji'an laughed, and then replied: "Alright, I happen to have none."

"Then it's settled. I'll pick you up in the afternoon, go shopping for clothes together, and then go directly to the meeting place." Zhan Ming said again.

"Okay." Cheng Ji'an responded.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Ji'an looked at the clothes hanging in the cabinet again, but then closed the door of the cabinet.

"Dong, dong, dong—" When I was about to make lunch, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiao Cheng, it's us." Immediately, Teacher Feng's voice sounded outside.

Cheng Ji'an hurried to open the door. Old Feng and Old Lin were standing outside, still carrying things in their hands. He hurriedly entered the door and asked, "Teacher, Mistress, why did you come here?"

"I'll bring you something delicious." Lin Lao smiled and put the thing in his hand on the table and opened it, but there were two boxes of dishes - a box of sweet and sour pork ribs, a box of roast chicken with potatoes, and a small The boxed meal, "I asked you to go to my place to eat, but you refused to eat, so I had to make it and bring it to you."

"Mother" Cheng Ji'an was happy and moved. He didn't know what to say for a while, so he quickly let them sit down and poured water for them.

"Don't be busy, I have something for you here too." Elder Feng said after sitting down.

"What?" Cheng Ji'an took the water and sat down.

Feng Lao took out a plastic bag from his carrying bag, put it on the table and pushed it over, "You take these."

Cheng Ji'an looked extremely surprised. The plastic bag was nothing but wads of money.

"teacher……"

"This is the money from the sale of your painting. I know it will be left to you and you won't want it, so I just asked your brother Da Pan to take part of it. It's 100,000 yuan. It's not too much, but it's not too much. Quite a lot, but when you put it on your body, it is always a guarantee..."

Although she knew that she got a large amount of property after the divorce, she would not use it according to her appearance. He couldn't do anything but give her some protection as much as possible.

"You must take this money." Feng Lao said, his eyes were earnest.

Lin Lao stood on the side with a kind expression on his face.

Cheng Ji'an didn't know what the second old man was thinking, and his nose could not help sour, but he finally accepted it, "Okay, I'll keep the money."

She is not short of money, even if she doesn't have the Ji family's property, she is now enough to live and breathe. But this was the second old man's wish, and she couldn't refuse.

She can only repay them as much as possible to thank them for their care and love for herself.

Feng Lao and Lin Lao did not get up and leave until they watched her finish the meal, but Cheng Ji'an had no choice but to do so. When the second old man left, she sent them all the way to the bus station and watched them leave.

Back at the apartment, it was only one o'clock, thinking that it was still early, so I picked up a book from the bookshelf and prepared to read it for a while.

Zhanming's call came again, "Cheng An'an, I've already arrived, come down."

Cheng Ji'an walked out the window to take a look, and sure enough, Zhanming was already standing downstairs.

He quickly changed his clothes, put on some powder and lip balm in front of the mirror, then changed his shoes, picked up the bag hanging on the wall, and walked out.

"Why are you so early?" Cheng Ji'an asked again when he got into the car. She thought it should be at least three or four.

Zhanming said to her: "I originally thought about it later, but then I suddenly remembered that in addition to buying clothes, you girls also need to paint nails and do a hairdressing, anyway, my mother has to do a haircut every time. In two or three hours, I'll just come out earlier."

Cheng Ji'an was a little dumbfounded, she really only wanted to buy a piece of clothes. But also, in the past, before attending important gatherings at Ji's house, he always went to get his hair done first.

"Let's go shopping for clothes first." Zhan Ming had already turned around and said again.

"Okay." Cheng Ji'an retracted his thoughts and responded with a smile.

After driving for more than half an hour, entered the commercial area, surrounded by high-rise buildings.

"Let's go there and have a look first." Zhanming said, pointing to a shopping mall on the right.

"Okay." Cheng Ji'an glanced at it and nodded. It was a mid-to-high-end mall, and she should be able to handle the prices inside.

After getting out of the car, the two entered the elevator together. When we got to the inside of the mall, it was bright and splendid.

Cheng Ji'an has never been to such a place. Before marrying into the Ji family, she only went to some small shopping malls. After she married into the Ji family, she also went to some customized places. Even if she went to the shopping mall, she only went to some high-end places. Really never been there.

I thought the price here was still acceptable, but I just walked through the windows on both sides and looked at the prices of the clothes on the models on display, but I was still speechless.

"This house has dresses, go in and have a look." Zhan Ming said again.

Cheng Ji'an glanced around, only to realize that Zhanming had brought her directly to the first floor of women's clothing. He didn't refuse, he just responded, "Yes."

This brand is all about dress styles. Cheng Ji'an followed Zhanming in and took a look. It was full of colorful dresses.

The shopping guide has warmly greeted him, "Miss, what do you need?"

Zhanming let Cheng Ji'an out and smiled: "We need a dress that suits her."

The shopping guide glanced at Cheng Ji'an, but smiled: "Miss is so beautiful, all the skirts here are suitable. But I have some recommendations here, you can try them first." Having said that, he has taken out a white fishtail skirt from the side. , "This dress is very figure-flattering, and it is very pure to wear. The lady must be as beautiful as a goddess."

Cheng Ji'an was a little embarrassed, but Zhanming said, "Let's try it first."

Looking at the eager eyes of the two, Cheng Ji'an could only turn around and go into the locker room.

When he came out, he was already wearing a white dress. It's really beautiful, she's tall and thin, so she wears this dress with a cool and clean taste.

Zhan Ming didn't speak, just nodded.

Cheng Ji'an looked at himself in the mirror, but he was not used to it.

Seeing this, the shopping guide hurriedly said: "If you don't like this one, we can try something else. I have two more of these here, you can try them together." She didn't know when she had more black and one green Two skirts.

"Try it, it's still early anyway." Zhan Ming also said.

Cheng Ji'an returned to the locker room. The two skirts were tried, black, noble but melancholy; green, elegant but lost liveliness.

The shopping guide continued to praise, but Zhanming just touched his chin and never came to a conclusion.

Cheng Ji'an began to try again, long, short, silk, forged, and so on, but he was never satisfied.

Zhanming no longer let the shopping guide recommend, and Cheng Ji'an only followed him to choose. She thought that there were so many skirts here that she could always pick a suitable one.

"Cheng An'an, do you want to try this?" Just as she was flipping through the items on the shelf, Zhan Ming, who was beside her, suddenly shouted.

He held a skirt in his hand, and his eyes were extraordinarily determined, "Try it, I think you must look very good in this color!"

Cheng Ji'an also had a bright feeling, but when he saw the design behind, he was a little embarrassed.

But the shopping guide began to praise again: "Sir is really insightful. This skirt is our new product this season, and it is also the most stylish and most expensive one. If you like it, we can go in and try it again."

"Come and try." Cheng Ji'an was still hesitant, but Zhanming urged.

Had to enter the locker room again.

Cheng Ji'an felt a little cramped when he came out.

Outside the door, he couldn't stop exclaiming, "It's so beautiful!"

Zhan Ming also blurted out: "Beautiful!"

Cheng Ji'an turned to look at the mirror, and was stunned.

The person in the mirror is wearing a long burgundy dress with satin texture, thin and soft. The chest is pleated, revealing a delicate collarbone and a slender neck. The back is even more unique. The deep V shape perfectly shows the entire back, which is smooth, fair, and extremely slender.

Noble, and bright; generous, without losing style.

Cheng Ji'an has never worn clothes of this color or style, so he never imagined that he would look like this.

When she was a student, everything was simple, and when she married into the Ji family, it was only a cautious style.

With bright lights all around, Cheng Ji'an looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't be mistaken.

She was a stranger, but she was very happy.

"Just buy this one!" Zhan Ming had already made a decision.

"It's too expensive!" Cheng Ji'an came back to her senses when she heard this. Although she liked this dress very much, its price was almost equal to her salary for a month and a half. In the past, it might not have been worth mentioning at all, but now it is different.

"It doesn't matter." Zhanming didn't seem to care, "buy it if you like it. I forgot to tell you, but I got a sum of money for the installation from the dean. Although it wasn't enough to buy it, it was enough to offset part of it. already."

Cheng Ji'an was suspicious, but Zhanming took out a piece of paper from his pocket. It is indeed an approval form - installation fee: 5000.

"So buy it, don't worry." Zhan Ming has put the paper back into his pocket again.

Cheng Ji'an was still hesitant, "The money is used to buy this dress, what about your clothes?"

However, Zhanming smiled and said, "I just buy a suit, I wear it for occasions, it won't be wasted, it doesn't matter if I pay for it myself. If you wear less occasions, you will naturally have to pay for it. Come on, don't delay, I'll pay for it! "As he said that, he actually walked towards the cashier.

Cheng Ji'an naturally did not dare to ask him to pay, and hurriedly followed.

...

After buying the clothes, went to the men's clothing department on the upper floor.

Different from choosing carefully for her, Zhanming walked into a store and said, "I'll just pick one here."

Cheng Ji'an was a little stunned, and let him choose carefully.

Zhanming had nothing to do, and finally said: "Then you can help me with reference, I really have no problem with buying clothes for myself."

Cheng Ji'an had to pick up clothes for him.

Looking at the full layer of suits, she was a little stunned. She had never picked clothes for men before, but she quickly brushed them away, and then she just patiently picked them out for Zhanming.

Zhan Ming just looked at her with a smile in his eyes.

Cheng Ji'an finally chose a dark blue suit for him. Zhanming was young and fair-skinned. Wearing this color matched his temperament.

And when Zhanming came out of the dressing room, Cheng Ji'an nodded with satisfaction.

Zhanming is very handsome. He used to wear regular clothes to show only sunshine, but now he has a different kind of bearing when he puts on formal clothes.

...

After buying clothes, bought shoes, and finally hair was done. By the time finished all of them, it was a quarter past six.

Cheng Ji'an touched up his makeup in the bathroom, and after coming out, he said to Zhan Ming, "Let's go quickly, don't be late."

Zhanming looked at her for a while, but asked, "Do you have any other color lipsticks?"

"No." Cheng Ji'an shook his head blankly. She only has a bean paste color.

Zhan Ming smiled and said nothing, but suddenly took her by the hand and walked towards the layer of makeup.

When I got to the makeup area, I found the lipstick counter, Zhanming glanced around, picked a color, wiped it on his hand, glanced at her again, and immediately said to the shopping guide: "Take a lipstick of this color, thanks."

The shopping guide brought it quickly, Zhanming swiped the card, opened the package, turned around and said to Cheng Ji'an, "You try this color."

Cheng Ji'an never followed in his footsteps. Hearing what he said, he could only take it in a daze, and let him push him to walk in front of the mirror.

Unscrew the cap, roll out, and apply.

"Look, this color suits you better." In the mirror, Zhan Ming leaned over and said with a smile.

Cheng Ji'an looked at himself and was a little stunned. She has never worn a burgundy dress or bright lipstick.

Today, the people in the mirror, with snow skin, red lips, upturned hair, and gorgeous dresses, don't look like themselves.

"Okay, now we can go!" Zhan Ming finally said with satisfaction seeing that there was nothing missing from her.

Then he patted his chest and said, "Relax, everything is mine!"

Cheng Ji'an couldn't help laughing when he saw his excited expression.

...

At seven o'clock, a car stopped in front of a courtyard gate. The door opened and two people walked out.

One was wearing dark blue clothes, young and handsome; the other was wearing a long dress, beautiful and moving.

Zhanming walked up to Cheng Ji'an, with a smile on his lips and bright eyes, he bent his arms and said, "Come on."

Cheng Ji'an looked at him and smiled, but didn't refuse, just stretched out his hand and gently took his arm.

"Cheng An'an, we are going to meet the world together now!" Zhan Ming said finally.

...

The door opened and the party unfolded.

It is a spacious hall, and many people have come in it. The sound of the orchestra is moving, and there is laughter. Zhan Ming and Cheng Ji'an handed the invitation to the sign-in desk, and after confirming their identities, they walked inside hand in hand. Seeing that there were cocktails on the side, Zhanming took two and handed over another. Cheng Ji'an waved his hand.

"Do you know anyone here?" Zhan Ming took a sip and asked in a low voice.

Cheng Ji'an shook his head, there are men, women, young and old here, but they are all unfamiliar, and they are surrounded by twos and threes, they don't look like people in a circle. However, when passing by them, they all cast their eyes, with friendliness, and occasionally a few surprises.

"Do you know anything?" she asked again.

Zhan Ming confirmed it carefully, and replied, "A few of them look familiar." After speaking, he raised his glass in one direction.

Cheng Ji'an looked in that direction, but found that it was a middle-aged man. At this time, he was also raising his glass. When he saw her looking over, he also gestured to her. He looked a little respectful, but he didn't come over.

"Who is he?" Cheng Ji'an was a little puzzled.

"I've only met twice." Zhanming didn't answer carefully, but changed the subject and said, "This party is really small, no matter how many people there are almost a hundred people."

Cheng Ji'an was also sighed. At the beginning, the dean's estimate was thirty or forty people.

"Where is the master? Shall we go over and say hello?" she asked again. Since it's here, the etiquette must always be done.

At this time, several people surrounding the front suddenly dispersed, and one person came out. Forty or fifty years old, wealthy, wearing a Tang suit, he looks like a businessman, but he is not shrewd. At this time, he walked quickly, with a warm smile on his face. His direction is towards the entrance of the hall, and at first glance, there are distinguished guests.

"He is the overseas Chinese collector, Du Baosheng." Zhanming briefly introduced.

Cheng Ji'an understood.

At this time, a voice came from the side, "Look, who is this!"

"Isn't this Ji Chongjun, why is he here?"

The voice behind him was not loud, but the words came into his ears. Cheng Ji'an's heart jumped, and he turned around subconsciously. Then, the whole person froze.

Someone walked in at the door, wearing a suit and standing straight, but it was undoubtedly Ji Chongjun.

"Mr. Ji is here, Du Mou has lost his way to welcome him!" Du Baosheng shouted before he approached. When he came to him, he held the hand of the person in front of him again.

Then, he was taken in again.

Ji Chongjun showed no expression, just walked forward, but suddenly, he stopped.

As far as the eyes can see, Cheng Ji'an and Zhanming are standing in the crowd, but they are particularly eye-catching.

Sometimes, she couldn't even remember what Ji Chongjun looked like.

Cheng Ji'an felt a little bored, but soon sat up straight again, and exhaled softly and shallowly.

When she walked out of the bedroom, she was the dignified and peaceful Mrs. Ji again, with curly hair, a knee-length dress, and beige high heels stepping on the carpet, making only a slight screeching sound.

It was sunny outside, and the surroundings were silent, except for the sound of her footsteps, there was no sound. There are nearly ten rooms on the second floor, and she lives alone, and she is used to it.

He walked down the spiral staircase and came to the corner, but his eyes were still inadvertently looking towards the room facing south. After only one glance, he took it back again - it was Ji Chongjun's study, and he didn't know when it became him. bedroom, if he comes back.

They have been separated for a long time, or rather, they have never lived together like any other couple. They have slept together, but how many times? once? twice? three times? ...a handful.

And the first time...

The past appeared in front of her eyes, Cheng Ji'an lowered her eyes and pursed her lips slightly, but she quickly abandoned everything. She raised her head and looked at the door of the study again.

How long has it been since he came back this time?

The door to the study was closed, as if someone was there.

When she walked to the dining room, the servants were setting various kinds of breakfasts on the table. She had breakfast at 7:30. The servants had already mastered her habit.Only when she approached and was about to pull out the chair and sit down, she stopped again.

Wu Ma was really busy, but instead of setting breakfast for her, she was cleaning the dinner plate in the main seat.

Theme?That is……
