Strike Back, Proud Goddess!

Finally solving the “accident”, Xiao Jing left and Qiao Liang asked Tang Xi to go to sleep. Tang Xi took a look at her clothes, went to take a shower and then climbed into bed to continue to sleep. After she fell asleep, Qiao Liang went to take a shower. It was four am when he walked out of the bathroom, but Tang Xi’s eyes were opened wide and looking at him. “You are not going to sleep?”

“I’ll process some documents.”

Tang Xi nodded, turned around and said, “Then catch up on sleep tomorrow. Don’t follow me tomorrow.”

Qiao Liang, “…” He silently went to bed and lah down beside her. “Okay, then let’s go to sleep.”

Tang Xi hugged his waist in satisfaction and leaned against his chest. “You’re in poor health, so you should take more rest. Don’t stay up late.”

Qiao Liang kissed her on the forehead and Tang Xi whispered, “Leave the work of the Qiao’s to your subordinates. And then you just need to deal with those that they can’t handle. As for Long Xiao… Lu Li can help you, right? I heard that you have been working extremely hard these years. Can’t you take more rest?”

Qiao Liang’s eyes sparkled with affection when he heard Tang Xi’s whisper. He kissed her on the top of her head. “Okay, let’s sleep now.”

Tang Xi hugged Qiao Liang and fell asleep again. Qiao Liang who hadn’t felt sleepy at all, also fell asleep.

Tang Xi was woken up by her ringing phone the next morning. She turned around to reach for her cell phone. When she saw Qiao Liang still in sleep, she hurriedly took her cell phone and muted it. Then she crept out to the living room to answer the call. He Wanyi was relieved to hear she pick up the call. “Oh, you finally answered my call! Are you still sleeping?”

Tang Xi chuckled. “I slept late last night, so I got up late. Are you free now, Sister Wanyi?”

He Wanyi said, “Yes, shall I go to your room to try on that dress now?”

Tang Xi took a look at Qiao Liang who was still sleeping on the bed and said in a lowered voice, “No, no, I’ll go to your room. I’ll take the dress to your room.”

Tang Xi hung up, hurriedly washed herself up and stuffed the dress into a suitcase. Then she went to He Wanyi’s room with the suitcase. He Wanyi opened the door only to see Tang Xi standing in front of him carrying a big suitcase. She hurriedly said, “Come on in.”

Tang Xi nodded and walked in carrying the suitcase. “Sorry, Sister Wanyi, I should have let you try this dress on earlier. Please try it on.”

As He Wanyi closed the door, Tang Xi had taken out the dress. At the very moment that He Wanyi saw this dress, she had been attracted by it. She walked over and gently stroked the dress. “Oh my god, Rourou, this dress is gorgeous! Did you design this? It’s so beautiful! No wonder you treat this dress with such care.”

Tang Xi smiled. “No, it was designed by Chu Ling and I. He is more talented in design than me and has a great taste in fashion, so I view it as the most important dress of my first fashion show.”

“I think this dress will be popular and I have a hunch that people will rush to buy this dress once it’s presented on the runway.” He Wanyi liked this dress very much.

Tang Xi smiled. “I’m flattered. Can you try it on now?”

He Wanyi nodded happily. She was sure that she would look beautiful in this dress. She was going to win the bet! How dare Chu Ling laugh at her figure?! He was humiliating her!

“Just a minute. Let me put it on.” He Wanyi held the dress and walked into the bedroom.

Tang Xi sat on the sofa and waited for her expectantly. However, five minutes later, He Wanyi walked out in the dress and looked at her disappointedly…

Tang Xi was about to praise He Wanyi was so beautiful, but then she froze. She blinked, looked at the dress and didn’t know what to say…

How could this be?

He Wanyi knew this dress didn’t suit her from Tang Xi’s eyes. The corner of her eyes twitched and she said helplessly, “It seems that this dress isn’t suitable for me. I find that it’s a torture to me wearing this dress. I don’t present the beauty of this dress. In it, I even look terrible. Why? Is it because my figure is not good enough? Or… is it because I’m not beautiful enough?”

Tang Xi immediately shook her head. “No, absolutely no! Sister Wanyi, you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. Maybe…” Tang Xi looked at He Wanyi and the corner of her mouth twitched. She said, “Maybe there is something wrong with this dress. It… perhaps it’s not suitable for anyone but only for mannequin…”

He Wanyi almost wanted to cry. Why did she make the bet with Chu Ling?! Now it proved that he was right! What a shame!

He Wanyi felt she was trapped by herself…

But why was Chu Ling so sure that this dress was suitable for Rourou?

He Wanyi turned her eyes to Tang Xi whose figure was flat, and she narrowed her eyes. Tang Xi was embarrassed being stared by He Wanyi. She asked, “Sister Wanyi, what’s up?”

“Rourou, why don’t you try this dress on?” He Wanyi looked at her.

“Ah? No, I don’t want to try it on, Sister Wanyi.” Tang Xi refused.

She suddenly had a feeling that if she put on this dress… Maybe… maybe Chu Ling was right. This dress was only suitable for her…

“Why not? Come on, try it on.” He Wanyi pulled Tang Xi into her bedroom and helped her take off her clothes. Tang Xi could only surrender. “Alright, alright. I’ll try it on. I’ll try it on. Sister Wanyi, calm down. Please calm down. Let me put it on myself.”

She felt that if she didn’t agree to put this dress on, He Wanyi would do it for her, which was really embarrassing.

He Wanyi hastened to take off the dress and Tang Xi quickly put it on. He Wanyi randomly put on a nightgown and helped her smooth the dress. And then she became speechless…

Looking at Tang Xi in this dress, for the first time, He Wanyi began to doubt her own figure and face.

Tang Xi was also stunned looking at herself in the mirror. Who was this gorgeous little fairy in the mirror?!
