Chapter 321: Seeing Han Chun Again

Although they were reluctant, Zong Xingtao and Bai Qinghe ultimately bought half of the Moonlight Grass each.

Lin Yan produced the sales contract he had already prepared. After confirming the contents, both parties signed it.

Yun Zijin gave them the seeds, and the payment would be transferred to her within two days.

For an organization like theirs, any expenditure required filling out paperwork, getting a superior’s signature for approval, and then going through the finance department for processing.

The whole process would take at least two days to complete.

Yun Zijin wasn’t worried they would cheat her out of her money. After all, she knew their office address. If they really reneged on the payment, she could show up at their door to collect it in a heartbeat.

The three of them came and went in a hurry. After signing the contract and taking the Moonlight Grass Seeds, they left Xingyu Mansion without a moment’s rest.

Yun Zijin put away the two contracts and began looking through the dress lookbooks her SAs had sent her, preparing for the Situ family’s banquet on Saturday.

「Friday night, on the eve of the Situ family’s banquet.」

Yun Zijin sat on her bed, waiting for Randomly Spend to distribute her weekly rewards.

[Congratulations, Host, for completing this week’s cumulative spending task. You have received your rewards: A 5x cash rebate. ¥125,000,000.00 has been deposited into your savings account. You have also received Moonlight Grass Seeds x20 packs, Beauty and Slimming Baonu Tea x20 jars, Nourishing and Anti-Hair Loss Ginger Tea x20 jars, one Randomly Spend brand Moonlight Goddess Dress, and Intermediate Piano Skills.]

This was one of the rare times Yun Zijin hadn’t received a real estate reward.

However, it wasn’t as if she was short on real estate, and these rewards looked quite nice.

It was just a shame that the Beauty and Slimming Baonu Tea didn’t come with a recipe; Yun Zijin found that a bit of a pity.

Seeing the dress among the rewards reminded Yun Zijin of the Starlight Dress the system had given her before.

’Looks like I don’t need to pick out a dress after all. I can just choose between these two.’

Yun Zijin also contacted Han Chun.

She remembered that Han Chun had been her stylist for the Lu family patriarch’s birthday banquet. He had seen the Randomly Spend brand Starlight Dress in her walk-in closet and insisted that she absolutely had to contact him when she decided to wear it. He’d even do the styling for free.

Although Yun Zijin hadn’t decided whether to wear the Starlight Dress, she figured the Moonlight Goddess Dress would also appeal to Han Chun’s aesthetic tastes.

In any case, Yun Zijin decided she would choose one of these two dresses for the Situ family’s banquet on Saturday.

Han Chun received Yun Zijin’s message and replied almost immediately. He made it abundantly clear that he would be there and was eagerly anticipating the moment she would wear the dress.

Yun Zijin confirmed the banquet time with Han Chun. Once she was sure he was available, she booked him as her stylist for the Situ family’s event.

On Saturday, Han Chun arrived at Xingyu Mansion bright and early with his team. When Wang Minli opened the door and saw the massive entourage, she nearly jumped out of her skin.

However, Yun Zijin had mentioned that a styling team would be coming over today, so she quickly composed herself.

She stepped aside, letting Han Chun and his team inside.

Arriving at Xingyu Mansion again, Han Chun couldn’t help but marvel inwardly. ’The places rich people live are truly enormous.’

"Miss Yun, we meet again."

Han Chun set down his toolbox and greeted Yun Zijin.

"Teacher Han, are we starting on the styling now?"

The last time, Han Chun had also arrived very early, and the styling process had taken several hours.

’For some reason, just doing one look could take that long.’

"Whenever you’re ready, Miss Yun, we can begin."

This was the second time Han Chun was styling Yun Zijin, so they were a familiar pair. He was noticeably more relaxed with her than the last time.

"Let me show you the dresses first. As for which accessories to pair with them, you can use anything in the walk-in closet."

Yun Zijin led the team upstairs and into her walk-in closet.

The walk-in closet in Yun Zijin’s suite had been created by combining two rooms. It was accessible from her bedroom and displayed all of her clothes, jewelry, shoes, hats, watches, and more—it had everything imaginable.

Han Chun’s eyes were immediately drawn to the Starlight Dress and the Moonlight Goddess Dress, which were displayed separately in the walk-in closet.

He had seen the Starlight Dress last time but had regrettably not been able to see Yun Zijin wear it.

To his surprise, after just a short time, another dress just as magnificent as the Starlight Dress had appeared in Yun Zijin’s closet.

"Miss Yun, are you planning to choose between these two today?"

As he spoke, he looked at Yun Zijin with great anticipation.

Yun Zijin nodded. "Yes, but I haven’t decided yet. Teacher Han, which one do you think would be more suitable?"

The Starlight Dress had a midnight-blue base that revealed a glittering, star-like pattern under the light, making it absolutely dazzling.

The Moonlight Goddess, on the other hand, appeared to be a pure white, strapless, mermaid-style gown. But under the light, fine gilded lines became visible, making it incredibly beautiful.

With the two dresses side by side, even Han Chun couldn’t decide which was better.

However, judging by the design of each dress, the Moonlight Goddess Dress was the more understated of the two.

After all, the Starlight Dress had a grand, full skirt. Wearing it to a banquet might risk outshining the host.

"Why don’t we go with the white one? It’s very formal without being too grandiose."

"You’re the professional. I’ll listen to you."

Yun Zijin didn’t have a preference, so since Han Chun had made a suggestion, she readily agreed. It saved her the trouble of having to decide for herself.

With Yun Zijin’s approval, Han Chun could relax and focus on designing her makeup and hairstyle.

As for the accessories and shoes, those could be chosen at the end.

Since the dress’s base color was white, Han Chun aimed for a more natural look when designing Yun Zijin’s makeup.

The final result was a look that seemed as if she wasn’t wearing any makeup at all—what’s commonly known as a high-end "no-makeup" makeup look.

’However, having watched Han Chun’s hands move across her face with all sorts of tools, Yun Zijin knew this "no-makeup" look was actually quite heavy.’

The foundation Han Chun applied was much thicker than what she usually wore.

’If she wasn’t sure it was her own face, Yun Zijin would have thought he was spackling a wall.’

Lu Yunque arrived at Xingyu Mansion at ten o’clock.

At that point, the makeup on Yun Zijin’s face wasn’t even finished.

However, when she saw the gilded patterns on the cuffs and lapels of the black suit Lu Yunque was wearing, Yun Zijin immediately saw through his subtle intentions.

The members of Han Chun’s team exchanged bewildered glances when they saw Lu Yunque. ’Have those two... taken their relationship a step further?’

To be fair, they usually moved in entertainment industry circles and knew very little about the goings-on of high society.

However, neither Yun Zijin nor Lu Yunque had any intention of explaining.

Lu Yunque sat on the sofa in Yun Zijin’s walk-in closet. He sat casually, yet he had a presence that was impossible to ignore.

Just then, Aunt Wang came up with some tea.
