The third young master of the Zhan family and the only daughter of the Fu family was about to get married.
The wedding was held at the upscale Longteng Hotel in S city, which the Zhan family and Fu family had jointly booked. All the guests were elites of the business world and top-class tycoons.
The guests were having a merry time, as they chatted and laughed. Meanwhile, Zhan Qi followed Zhan Yuv and started socializing with the crowd.
As for Fu Qing, she was adjusting her wedding dress in the room as she waited for the toast.
The makeup artist applied the last layer of makeup for Fu Qing and clapped her hands in admiration.
"As expected of the daughter of the Fu family. You're the most beautiful bride I have ever seen."
Fu Qing smiled and blushed at the compliment. She was wearing a wedding dress designed by a world-class master. The entire dress was embroidered with white gauze and expensive diamond pearls, and it even reflected a bit of bright light. Under the light, the wedding dress looked as beautiful as a dream.
She was also wearing the most luxurious custom-made jewelry that was designed to complement her beauty perfectly.
Fu Qing's skin was fair, and her features were like a painting, exuding a myriad of amorous feelings. She gave off the youthful aura of a young girl, yet she had the maturity of a woman.
"Yes, Qing is the most beautiful."
Just then, Fu Wanwan happened to come in with a red veil. She smiled and placed it in front of Fu Qing, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Just this wedding dress and jewelry alone was worth the annual income of her own company.
Fu Qing flipped the veil in her hand and frowned slightly.
"What's this for?"
"You'll need to wear it later when we toast. It's to cover your face."
Fu Wanwan seemed understanding as she tried to explain it to her, "This is the wedding custom in S city. You might not know it since you just came back. On the day of the wedding, you have to wait for the groom to lift the veil for you for good luck."
"Is that so?" Fu Qing frowned. She had never heard of this tradition before.
She knew that a veil was required for a wedding, but this was a Chinese wedding. Furthermore, the red veil did not match her white wedding dress at all.
However, if there really was such a custom in S City, then she could only make do with it.
Seeing Fu Qing put the veil aside, Fu Wanwan left with grin on her face.
As soon as she left, Fu Qing looked at the makeup artist.
"Please find me a box of embroidery thread."
Not long after, the makeup artist came back with the embroidery thread she wanted.
Fu Qing took the box and thought to herself. After matching the embroidery thread with the veil, she started to thread the needle.
She slowly started to embroider and a pattern was being formed on the veil.
Red alone was too gaudy for a wedding veil. At least after embroidering the veil, she could slightly add some variety to it.
After all, Fu Qing didn't want to look ugly on her wedding day.
The wedding process began, and Fu Qing was sent out by the bridesmaids to exchange rings with Zhan Qi.
However, she heard the guests whispering and laughing as soon as she came out.
"Why is she wearing a red veil with a white wedding dress? It doesn't match at all."
"Who designed this for the bride? It's so ugly!"
Although they spoke in hushed tones, Fu Qing heard them clearly since they were all talking at the same time.
She couldn't help but feel angry at herself. She clenched her fingers tightly in humiliation and her face was dark.
Once again, she had fallen for Fu Wanwan's trick.
Just as she was wallowing in shame, a clear voice sounded.
"The embroidery on this veil is not bad. May I ask who embroidered it?"
The guests all quickly quieted down.
The one who spoke up was the famous design master, Yun Jin. Her designs were so beautiful that any one of her works would fetch a sky-high price.
Fu Qing finally gathered the courage to lift the veil and look at the person who spoke.
"I did it myself. The red veil is too monotonous. Even if it's for good luck, I couldn't stand it, so I embroidered some patterns on it."
"I see. It's been many years since I've seen such good embroidery work."
Yun Jin's eyes shone with interest as she continued. "Miss Fu, are you willing to be my disciple?"
