It Doesn’t Matter What You Wear

"Do you miss seeing him?" Jiang Beihan frowned and asked, his eyes showing a hint of annoyance.

"No… I'm just a tad curious as to why you guys are actually not together today," Song Wenxin explained, thinking about the relationship between Jiang Beihan and Shangguan, and she could not help smiling cheekily.

Although her smile had upset Jiang Beihan.

"He's on a business trip!" he replied curtly after giving her a look.

Obviously, he would not tell her that he had given Shangguan special permission to take a long vacation.

By doing so, he would not have to keep pretending to be close to Shangguan in her presence.

"Oh, so that's why," Song Wenxin said, accepting Jiang Beihan's explanation that Shangguan was away on business and nodded, not giving it further thought.

When Jiang Beihan's car approached the location of the launch event, Song Wenxin could not help feeling apprehensive.

Song Wenxin looked down at her simple outfit and raised her head to ask Jiang Beihan, "I'm wearing these clothes to attend the launch event. Do you think it's a little inappropriate?"

Jiang Beihan looked at her clothes and frowned.

"Didn't I instruct the help to prepare the new outfit for you? Why aren't you wearing those clothes?"

Song Wenxin nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, they did, but I figured that, since I'm still a student, for now, I'd prefer simple clothes to feel more comfortable."

At her explanation, Jiang Beihan relented and responded in a milder tone, "You are not the focus of this launch, so it does not matter what you wear."

"Oh." Song Wenxin nodded in agreement with what he had just said.

Indeed, in a new product launch, the focus was generally on the new products, the models, the designers, and the celebrities attending the launch event.

For someone as lowly as herself, nobody would pay her any attention.

…

At three o'clock that day, the JS Group's brand of men's wear would be launching that year's new line of winter wear at a high-end hotel in A-City.

This launch had been the buzz of the city for the past few months and was touted to be a showcase of the collective works of most of the leading designers from both the national and international markets.

In addition, a large number of celebrities and idols, including some A-list stars, had also come forward to support the launch!

And included among the celebrities were the most popular female star, Mi Lan, and male star, Qiao Zezhi, both of whom were the focus of the press present at today's event!

Especially Qiao Zezhi, whose current status—described as a star riding high and unrivaled on the popularity charts—was definitely not an exaggeration!

Every member of the press present at the venue this day was very enthusiastic and, judging by their equipment and state of readiness, seemed prepared, at any moment, to capture the headlines of the day.

"Here's Mi Lan!" a member of the press shouted excitedly.

Shortly after, a black car pulled up slowly and stopped at the entrance to the launch venue.

A beautiful woman with long, straight, pitch-black hair, clad in a long, black dress and very high stiletto-heeled shoes, alighted from the car.

However, the woman's face was almost devoid of emotion as she walked slowly toward the hotel where the launch event was to be held.

The cold and aloof beauty—that was one of Mi Lan's nicknames. In fact, it was because of this unique characteristic of hers—the charm of her cold and aloof beauty—that she had been able to gain a lot of attention and popularity in the entertainment industry!

At that time, another voice shouted, "There's Qiao Zezhi!" Once again, everyone raised their cameras, pointing them in the direction of another car that had just arrived on the scene and clicking away!

Qiao Zezhi, dressed in a grey suit, handsome and oozing charm from every part of his body, made his appearance shortly after.

He removed his dark glasses, revealing a strikingly handsome and cool face, working with the members of the press obligingly, enabling them to photograph him. Then, he turned and walked into the hotel.
