Zheng Min Is Such A Psycho!

After her long speech,she remain silent for a while then ask her master if there's anything she need or if she feel sleepy already.

After comforting her with some sloppy lines that a child hardly can come up, Bai Ruo smiled to the little kitten and said that if she need anything she just need to call her and she'll be staying outside the door waiting for an order. She then departed and leave. Leaving Bei Xi slow brain to comprehend her words.

What a cute little thing,i want to bite master's cheek and chew. @_@

Bei Xi on the other hand shrug her shoulders to her departing maid and continue reading books.

Ahhh,i need to learn more about cultivation.... +o+

....

Back to the present timeline,Bei Xi is currently enjoying the majestic sight in front of her face. Sparkly and unique clothes is displayed at her eyes to enjoy. Since they are currently waiting for the designer's arrival,she wandered around the store. Even after being here for some months,her eyes still can stop being amaze how luxuries people here and how beautiful their clothing and jewelries are.

She like the dress here more than those in her own world. Even if sometimes its some what feels hot and not that convenient wearing this toe length dress,everything here screams elegance and conservativeness.

What caught her sight is a purple dress with the spider lily design the same as her bed sheets. The same black vines almost dangerously spread out through the fabric and silk gives the impression of a mysterious aura. Come to think of it,this one really looks like the same weaving and the thread use is just as smooth and as pretty. But the weavings of her bedsheet is somewhat more like a calm waves easy going, and somewhat with a light theme than this one. This one gives a strong impression of darkness and danger. Like....like.... those of the Crown Prince.

No. That sounds wrong. Even with a serious and mysterious aura,the masked First Prince she first met doesn't have a personality to support any lurking darkness feels and impression. After knowing the said person,she can say that he is more like a gentleman than a bad guy. He treats Xiao Xi and Empress Dowager well and good and treats his subordinate with a slight indifference but not poorly. He even help her go back in her residence and then introduce her to a wonderful person called Grammy.

He doesn't really look like someone like that her brain and guts is telling her. He is like a kuudere? Slightly like that or something? Well,she doesn't know him enough to judge the Crown Prince.

...

As she was staring at one dress in the middle of the room which exudes fairy-like charm to her eyes,she then come closer and closer looking like those hypnotized touching the fabric feeling the silkiness underneath her fingers and staring at its design like its the most wonderful thing he ever seen. Her eyes looks like those people in comics with sparkly heart-shaped and dazed eyes. She caress it gently and trace the lines of the weavings with her fingertips. From her unconscious state a unknown figure strides closer to her position,also caressing the clothing intently and then quietly said near her ears the same exact words:

"You have a good eyes there,child. What makes you attracted to this piece?"

She is startled by the sound then turned her head around slightly only to be welcomed by a sight of a man in his mid 20's looking at her and smiling enigmatically. He has a thick sword eyebrows,thin lips,straight nose,and a thick eyelashes. His hair is kept in place by a jade hairpin excluding elegance. He has a figure of a well toned man under training. Not too bulky but not too slender with wide shoulder and well shaped body. Compared to the crown prince whose looks and stature are yet to mature to its prime,this one is mature enough to be called a man.This should be the designer who is also a cultivator by the looks of it. He has this playful aura around him that pulls you closer but makes you too afraid to do so.

And there it is.

He is now added to the enormous list of people Bei Xi encountered and found gorgeous then after that asked the blessing of heaven for her future growth.

Too are many handsome people ah....! My eyes just can't anymore. \(=_=)/

Throwing aside her childish thoughts,she then honestly answered the stranger.

"This one definitely looks mysterious and striking majestically. Do you by chance sell this one,Sir?" her eyes is sparkling looking at the man as if asking for pity but she politely ask.

Even if this dress doesn't fit her,her mother can still use this or she can put it under her lowest drawer below all her clothing and wait for years before she can finally use it. Base on its attractiveness, it will definitely not be outdated before she can finally wears this in the future but she is hoping she can grow at a faster rate for it to be in her hands.

The man smiled for the inquiry but then shook his head in disagreement to the proposal of purchase.

"This one is personally designed by my master. It is so much precious even after being compared to the worth of all the other dresses here combined." the man look at the piece with also sparkling eyes. His master randomly designs a set and even rarely make some by his own hands. This is the masterpiece he treasure and love to flaunt. This is a solid evidence how talented his master is.

Even with years of practice,he still can't imitate nor be halfway near the prestigiousness of this clothing classified as his master's work. Even if thats the case,he is still considered a talented and highly sought for designer since fancy clothing can even make a poor look noble and a noble look like a royalty.

Branded clothing is considered as a luxury by the nobles even with high position but in order not to look too ordinary or too plain compared to others in a gathering which may result to their standing and funds to be questioned by the other nobles always wanted to be a step ahead of everyone without bothering their position. They then purchase already made ones to save money in the process but also for them not to look too pitiful compared to others.

Good thing is that they are many designer's around the kingdom and many of them are fine designers with unique taste and styles. Some clothing are cheaper than the other and still all are pretty,but you need to visit a lot of stores for you to lessen the expenses. But if you really want the limelight,you need to visit one of the famous ones since their works are tier or two higher than the others.

Although sometimes even if you have the money, the designer may still refuse without a proper connection and good feelings. Be it noble or royalty. Since they are highly sought professionals and coaxing one is not an easy task. Blackmailing them is not an option since they are a lot of high figures they are friends with and acquainted of.

In contrast,this clothing is considered as a necessity to a royalty. Why? Because being a royal means you're high above almost all of the people and keeping low profile or dressing plainly may only have negative effects if not used to one's advantage properly. They normally purchase the one they personally been sized of and sewed to their liking and preference. This cost much higher that the already made ones but they are most suited and liked since it is made under their supervision. But it didn't exactly mean being a royal is being extravagant. Some other royals tend to dress more plainly than the others to lessen the attention they didn't seek and want. This is applied to some concubines keeping low profile to avoid being bullied by the others.

Also,some rich merchants and those noble who can afford or simply want to flaunt -even if it means poverty for a month- buy this service from a well known designers. This means that the more money and connection you have,the more you can stand out in a gathering and even in daily clothing you used in going for a walk. And it just proves more how his master is such a high existence that even royals are afraid to offend of.

Even just being a designer,he is rumored to be the Empress and Emperors of Bai and Luo Kingdom personal designer and sworn brothers by both the Emperor and some General. He is said to be a strong cultivator the same age with these oldies. But that is only what the rumor says. It doesn't give a solid evidence and solid conclusion either.

But still,he is the continent's most sought designer who royalties befriend of for means of connections and other benefits. Sadly,he disappeared leaving his sole disciple all by himself. This royalties then change their greedy eyes to this piece of cake hoping that coaxing younger generation is much easier and efficient. But they got it wrong. This man in front of her is much more proud than his master and even more crafty.

Unlike the master who is straightforward,he likes playing with them before turning them down. He always has this smile that you may find friendly early on but find it tricky later on. He decline works from those he dislike and play with those he found annoying. This way they learned their lesson to not bother him anymore and stop pestering his sight.

Only few nobles and royalties enter his eyes.

Luckily,one of them is the First Wife of the Prime Minister.

.....

"Move your arms upward slightly andddd... yes its done! The clothing that the prime minister manor will be delivered immediately upon completion and if we failed it on time we will compensate the customer. Is that to your satisfactory?" Zheng Min,the famous fashion designer negotiated.

My mother accept the offer and pay the deposit.

"We hope that the piece will be delivered exactly or earlier than the 2 weeks timespan before the celebration in the palace." she smiles and states her satisfaction.

Zheng Min smiled appreciatively and after that said that its nice working for us.

"Some nobles are just too stingy offering only money not even enough for the resources needed but expecting a one in a million set. The Mistress sure is a money bag and reasonable person." he smiled and shook his head chuckling.

Wei Shi also chuckled and even slightly punch the shoulder of the young man. She know what he called small amount of money offered by the nobles is definitely not small. This junior brother of her is sure the one stingy and picky. But other than that she found her feelings light when he's around unlike the suffocating and haughty airs the others carry. They immediately click after some series of accidentally bumping at each other. Her talent allowed her to enter an academy where they both studied and met. He is her junior but she considered Zheng Min friend and they pretty much have good relationship since Zheng Min also dislike those other nobles Wei Shi keeps away from.

It seems like almost all the dress and covers around their house is handmade by Zheng Min that makes Bei Xi more in awe of him. He can make a lot of thing using his hand that is intricate and complex to the point of perfection. She hardly see any mistakes. She even marvels her own bed sheets and curtain every morning the same with all of her dresses.

"So this is your little bun now. Come to this elder brother and let me see your face clearly." after his work at the fashion designer turning this time into a leisure time when he can inspect this little bunny,his previous professional and strict aura dissipated turning into much gentler and playful one.

He is staring intently at her,he suddenly pitch her cheeks hardly and then started laughing aloud.

Ouch >.< this man is a psycho!

He is squishing my cheeks like he is squishing a lemon dry!

My poor cheeks wuwuwuwu

(///>3>///)

She then pull the hem of the dress of her mother asking her about when are they going home making both the adults chuckle.
