Chapter 142 - 142: A Revolt
The hem of the dress was embellished with many fine diamonds in the shape of water droplets. When the hem of the dress danced, it was like a light rain in a green forest, looking exceptionally beautiful.
The men’s gown was inspired by the male Elf King. Not only did it follow the same green color as the women’s gown, but it also added gilded silver and white embellishments. It looked noble, cold, and unattainable.
As for the other two individual pieces of clothing, she designed two women’s daily wear.
One of them was a long gauze dress inspired by ink painting. The hem of the dress was dyed in black, which gradually faded from the top. It was also matched with a gauze coat with large sleeves printed with lotus leaves. It was full of ancient charm.
Hai Tang liked this gauze dress very much. Once it was designed, she couldn’t wait to wear it, so she asked Auntie Lu to make another one according to her size. Now that she was wearing it, it really made her look graceful, demure, and gentle.
Coupled with the white veil covering Hai Tang’s face, she looked as mysterious and beautiful as if she had walked out of a painting.
Another piece of women’s clothing was a short skirt with a rose skirt. The skirt was stacked with layers of rose patterned fabric, and there was a small tail behind it. When it swayed, the posture of the skirt was like a rain of roses.
Just by looking at this dress, one could imagine how bright and beautiful the girl would look in it. The inspiration for this dress came from the huge rose field that Gu Yun had given Hai Tang.
Hai Tang wanted to preserve the beauty of life in her designs and paintings.
Sure enough, after she displayed her dresses behind the glass window, more customers entered the store. Many people lingered in front of the clothes she designed and praised them.
However, most people would flinch when they heard the price. Only a few people showed the intention of considering it and left after adding Hai Tang’s contact information.
Hai Tang had originally wanted to do independent ready-to-wear custom-made clothing. She wanted to design suitable clothes for a specific person. Therefore, although she did not get a single order for the whole day, she was still very happy. Having customers meant progress, which also gave her the motivation to continue working.
Thus, before the sun set, Hai Tang called Gu Yun.
“Hello? Gu Yun, don’t come to pick me up today.”Hai Tang said.
Gu Yun was a little confused on the other end of the phone.” What’s wrong? Do you have something to do?”
“Yes, I need to stay in the shop to organize the new mannequins. I also need to quickly draw out the new design inspiration.”Hai Tang said.
Gu Yun could hear that Hai Tang’s tone was very relaxed and happy, so he did not dampen her spirits. Instead, he asked,’”‘Then do you mind if I go to the shop with you?”
Hai Tang shook her head and said,” Don’t worry. I don’t need anyone to accompany me. Besides, Hai Yuan is still at home. You should go back early to look after him. Otherwise, he will turn the house upside down. ‘”‘
“Alright then.” Only then did Gu Yun agree. After a pause, he added,”Then remember to tell me when you’re done.”
“Yes, yes.” Hai Tang quickly agreed. As soon as she hung up the phone, she threw herself into the matters in the shop.
They were busy until nightfall.
Hai Tang raised her head from the table and stretched lazily. Then, she picked up the flowers from the flower shop beside the table and prepared to put them in a big vase and place them at the door of the shop.
Making the Moon Breeze Shop clean and beautiful would also make her feel better.
Just as Hai Tang was bending over to arrange flowers at the entrance of the shop, a black shadow appeared from the corner of the street. It looked around, as if it had locked onto a certain target, and quickly headed in Hai Tang’s direction.
Hai Tang, on the other hand, was oblivious to this and continued humming her song as she busied herself with her own matters.
Suddenly, a low and hoarse male voice rang in Hai Tang’s ears. At the same time, a hand covered her mouth with great force.
“Oh!”
Hai Tang’s body stiffened, and then she quietly stopped moving.
The stranger warned her as he pressed a dagger against her neck.” Don’t scream. If you make a sound, I’ll kill you.”
Hai Tang was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. Hearing this, she chose to remain silent and watched the strange man’s every move with fear…
