Chapter 711: The Best Time to Marry You

Qin Zhuoning pushed the door open and entered. The huge cloakroom was spacious and bright. A dazzling array of clothes, shoes, hats, and jewelry in layers of glass cabinets greeted her eyes.

Currently, there were four service staff carefully choosing a gown for Pei Jiao to wear to today’s engagement.

Pei Jiao sat on the sofa, leaning forward slightly. She reached out and fiddled with the bouquet of beautiful red roses in front of her absent-mindedly, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.

“Miss Pei, look at this set. It’s a Chinese cheongsam with Su Xiu’s pattern. The buttons are low and won’t hurt your neck. It’s mainly comfortable.”

Pei Jiao glanced at it and shook her head. “l don’t like the style.”

The last time she wore a very beautiful Chinese cheongsam, Pei Jiao took a look and said that she didn’t like it, but the reason was not the style, but the abrasive buckle and high collar. Wearing it for a few more minutes would be a burden.

This Chinese cheongsam did not have a high collar, and the style was 90% similar to the previous cheongsam. However, the reason Pei Jiao did not like it this time was because of the style.

Wasn’t that obvious enough? She just didn’t want to wear it. The service staff felt it.

“Then I’ll go and match two more sets.” The waiter thoughtfully poured Pei Jiao a cup of coffee. After pouring the coffee, she stood up. Seeing the man who came in, the waiter was about to remind Pei Jiao when Qin Zhuoning waved his hand and the waiter left silently.

Pei Jiao retracted her hand and stretched. Her curly hair, which had been rolled up in advance, flowed down. Two strands hung down on both sides of her forehead, making her look lazy and beautiful.

After choosing nearly a dozen sets, she was already tired of choosing. She wanted to nestle on the sofa and sleep, but her mind was repeatedly pulled by the engagement today. She was feeling frustrated when someone sat down beside her. She was stunned at first, but she quickly sat up straight and perked up. “Brother Zhuoning, why are you here?”

“To pick you up, of course.”

Qin Zhuoning was wearing a white suit. His broad shoulders and narrow waist perfectly matched this suit. He was very formal.

Pei Jiao had always known that Qin Zhuoning was very handsome, but today, Qin Zhuoning seemed to have reached a new level of handsomeness.

Qin Zhuoning did not mind Pei Jiao’s fearless gaze at all. He even asked her, “How do I look today?”

Pei Jiao replied affirmatively, “Very handsome!”

Qin Zhuoning raised his eyebrows. “Very high praise.”

Pei Jiao replied, “You’re not only so handsome today. It’s just that I rarely see you in a white suit. It’s rare to see this on our engagement day.”

“If you think I look good in a white suit, I’ll wear it often in the future,” Qin Zhuoning said.

Pei Jiao smiled. “Don’t wear a white suit every day just because I say that it looks good. Don’t look good for others, but yourself.” With that, she picked up the cup of coffee in front of her and sipped.

Qin Zhuoning looked at her quietly for a moment, then raised his hand to look at his watch and reminded her gently, “It’s half past nine, Jiaojiao.”

Pei Jiao put down the coffee. “Are the people at the hotel rushing you?”

Today was the day of their engagement. The entire Shengshi Hotel was extremely lively. The head of the Pei family and the head of the Qin family were already preparing guests in the hotel.

Qin Zhuoning had already arrived at the hotel. When he found out that Pei Jiao was still choosing her gown, he specially rushed over. He answered Pei Jiao,

“Half of the guests are here, but we should go over.”

“Half. There are already so many people…” Pei Jiao was still a little distracted. She stood up. “Then I’ll change into my gown and go with you as soon as possible.”

Qin Zhuoning also stood up. “Do you want me to help you refer?”

“Okay,” Pei Jiao agreed happily. “This patient with severe indecision needs your help.”

“l remember that you didn’t have indecision in the past…” After pausing for a moment, Qin Zhuoning quickly changed the topic. “Do you want to wear a long dress or a short skirt today? I’ll give you a suggestion based on the length.”

Pei Jiao knew that Qin Zhuoning immediately ended the topic of indecision. It was his sense of propriety. She didn’t want to make things difficult for Qin Zhuoning. What was the point of delaying the engagement? She said to Qin

Zhuoning, “A long dress! I prefer a long dress.”

Qin Zhuoning nodded. “Okay, I’ll take a look for you.”

Pei Jiao thought that Qin Zhuonings aesthetic taste was probably the same as most men’s. Her long dress was mainly white and beautiful, and it was best to look fairy-like.

However, she did not expect Qin Zhuoning to choose a light lake-green feather dress for her. It had a small V-neck back and a strapless design. The skirt reached the ground, making Pei Jiao’s eyes light up.

At first, when the waiter helped Pei Jiao match it, she thought that Pei Jiao might not want to choose a slightly brighter and exaggerated style, so she did not take out this feather dress. Now that she saw the amazement in Pei Jiao’s eyes, the service staff regretted thinking so much.

Qin Zhuoning also took in Pei Jiao’s shock and smiled. “It seems that you like it very much.”

“At least I like it at first glance.” Pei Jiao walked forward. “I’ll try it first.” Qin Zhuoning gestured to the waiter. “Help her put it on.”

With a swish, the champagne-colored curtain was pulled closed, separating Pei Jiao from the two waiters who helped her change into her gown. While waiting, Qin Zhuoning received a call from the hotel. After answering, the person on the phone said, “Mr. Qin, that person came to the hotel.”

Qin Zhuonings eyes darkened. “No matter what, we have to stop him.”

The person on the phone said, “We haven’t made a move yet. Mr. Pei’s men have stopped him so far.”

Qin Zhuoning said unhurriedly, “If he dares to barge in, don’t worry.”

The person on the phone replied, “Understood.”

After the call ended, there was the sound of a curtain opening behind her. Qin Zhuoning turned around and his gaze landed on Pei Jiao, who had changed into a feather dress. He was immediately stunned and could not look away for a long time.

“From your expression, I guess this feather dress should look good on me?” Pei Jiao walked over with the dress.

Qin Zhuoning was a little dazed. There were thousands of words in his heart, but in the end, they only gathered into two words. “Very beautiful.”

Pei Jiao looked at herself in the mirror. “The effect is better than I expected. You have good taste.”

Qin Zhuo slowly walked behind Pei Jiao and looked at her bright reflection in the mirror. He murmured softly, “Jiaojiao, you’ve really grown up.”

Pei Jiaoyang smiled. “Please, I’m almost 23 years old, okay?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Zhuoning couldn’t help but hold her hand. “To be able to have a grand engagement with you in your best years, it’s worth dying.”

When Pei Jiao heard him mention the word ‘death’, her expression changed.

“Brother Zhuoning, you have to avoid saying those things. Don’t mention these unlucky words on such an auspicious day.”

With that, she naturally pulled her hand out of Qin Zhuonings. “Let’s go to the hotel to hold our engagement.”

Qin Zhuoning stared at Pei Jiao’s back and hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, he raised his voice and asked her, “If today wasn’t a fake engagement but a real engagement, Jiaojiao, would you still go?”

Pei Jiao stopped in her tracks. She turned sideways and slowly turned to look at Qin Zhuoning with a faint smile. “Of course.”

A hint of hope rose in Qin Zhuonings eyes. “Are you also…”

Pei Jiao said, “Didn’t we agree on the fake engagement from the beginning? So there won’t be this if..
