Chapter 478: Chapter 477: Changing How One Addresses Someone

After Zhuang Caixin left, Zhuang Xinhai’s face immediately turned sullen. He clenched his fists, a malevolent look in his eyes. But soon, he burst into laughter, his eyes filled with a sense of determination. This time, he wanted everyone to know what kind of woman Ding Yuejun was and see which decent family would still be willing to marry into the Ding Family.

Ding Yuejun had no idea that someone was scheming against her. At the moment, she was taking her fashion design sketches to find Shao Hui.

"Director Shao, these are the clothing designs I’ve come up with so far. Take a look. If they’re good, we can start making them. I still need to think more about the other clothes."

Upon hearing this, Shao Hui hurriedly replied, "No rush, no rush. Let me first take a look at the outfits you’ve designed." Saying this, he started to flip through them, and when he saw the sketches, a smile spread across his face, "Yes, yes, this is exactly what I’m looking for. They look fantastic."

Hearing Shao Hui’s praise, Ding Yuejun chuckled, "As long as you’re satisfied, then we can start the production of these few outfits by tomorrow. Let’s take it slowly on the others."

"Okay, these designs really look great. Let’s make them just like this."

At this point, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but ask, "Should we show them to Mr. Huang?" The other day, Huang Yanquan mentioned wanting to see the sketches, but she forgot about it, and he left without seeing them.

Shao Hui shook his head and said, "It’s probably not necessary. Mr. Huang invested in our drama, so he only needs to see the final results of the drama’s success."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun was slightly puzzled, but in the end, she didn’t ask further. Just as she was about to stand up, another person entered from outside.

The man was Huang Yanquan. When he saw Ding Yuejun, he was momentarily stunned, then smiled and said, "Boss Ding, what brings you here today?"

Before Ding Yuejun could speak, Shao Hui had already said with a smile, "Boss Ding brought over the design sketches for me to see, and since you’re here, why not take a look too? I’ve just checked them and found Boss Ding’s designs to be excellent, and I plan to have the first batch produced at once."

Upon hearing this, Huang Yanquan immediately said, "There’s no problem with Boss Ding’s designs."

At this time, Ding Yuejun handed over the sketches to Huang Yanquan.

Huang Yanquan carefully looked at them for a while before nodding and praising, "Boss Ding is really talented. These outfits are beautiful and distinct from the costumes in other period dramas. They’re really impressive."

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but smile.

"I’m glad you like them.

While flipping through the sketches, Huang Yanquan suddenly noticed a date written on one of the pages.

Seeing the date of December 16, he asked curiously, "Boss Ding, is there something special about this date? It looks like it’s the day after tomorrow."

It was then that Ding Yuejun noticed the date. She smiled and said, "I noted it down casually. That day happens to be my birthday. My father called and asked me to take that day off, and when he called, I was sketching, so I just noted it down."

Hearing this, Huang Yanquan murmured, "So the day after tomorrow is Boss Ding’s birthday. Are you planning a birthday party?"

It hadn’t occurred to Ding Yuejun that Huang Yanquan would ask this, but she nodded and said, "Yes, there will be a small celebration."

"I wonder if we might be lucky enough to attend it?" Huang Yanquan said, looking at Shao Hui, "Director Shao probably wants to attend as well."

Shao Hui looked bewildered, but when he saw Huang Yanquan’s look, he instinctively nodded and said, "Yes, I’d love to go too."

Seeing Shao Hui saying so, Ding Yuejun nodded and said, "Alright, then both of you can come by. It’ll start around eleven o’clock."

"Great, we’ll make sure to be there on time."

Seeing that the two genuinely intended to attend, Ding Yuejun continued, "Alright, I’ll send you both invitations later." After a few more words, she went back.

After Ding Yuejun left, Shao Hui glanced at Huang Yanquan with some suspicion. He finally realized something was off. Mr. Huang seemed overly interested in Boss Ding, and now he even planned to attend her birthday party. It was quite intriguing.

Noticing Shao Hui’s scrutiny, Huang Yanquan didn’t mind at all. Instead, he said to Shao Hui, "Director Shao, I’ll leave the rest to you. When Boss Ding’s outfits are ready, I’ll come over to take a look."

Shao Hui nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll call you then."

Despite his suspicions, he said nothing because he had no right to interfere in Huang Yanquan’s matters.

Meanwhile, after returning home, Ding Yuejun remembered about Huang Yanquan and Shao Hui, so she promptly sent out two more invitations. On her birthday, both Huang Yanquan and Shao Hui indeed came to the party.

Mr. Ding had already been told about the event by his daughter, so he wasn’t surprised. He merely greeted them both with a smile as they entered.

Seeing them arrive, Ding Yuejun greeted them with a smile and took them inside before stepping out again.

However, when Yiyi saw Huang Yanquan, she couldn’t help but frown. It seemed like Mr. Huang had been seeing her mother quite often lately.

But before Yiyi could ponder further, someone ahead called out.

"Yiyi..."

Hearing the voice, Yiyi turned around to see that Gu Tingyu’s family had arrived. But when she saw Gu Yaohua and Yu Qiulan, she hesitated, recalling what Gu Tingyu had said to her last time.

Yet, addressing them as mom and dad all of a sudden felt a bit hard for her.

Seeing the little girl, Gu Tingyu was naturally delighted. He also noticed her hesitant look as she glanced at his parents. So he smiled, looked at Mr. Ding first, and called out, "Grandpa."

Then he looked at Yue Jun and called out, "Mom."

Hearing Gu Tingyu call Yue Jun "mom," Yiyi couldn’t help but give him a sidelong glance, but then she decided to go for it and directly addressed Gu Yaohua and Yu Qiulan, "Mom, Dad, please head inside."

Upon hearing this "Mom," Yu Qiulan was instantly overjoyed. She wanted to hear Yiyi say it again, but seeing Mr. Ding and Ding Yuejun were still there, she was too embarrassed to ask and could only excitedly pull her husband inside.

Once they were through the main door, Yu Qiulan couldn’t help but turn to her husband and say, "Yaohua, did you hear that? Yiyi called us Mom and Dad."

Gu Yaohua was all smiles as well. He glanced at his wife and said, "Of course I heard. But try to tone it down a bit; your smile is about to reach your ears."

Yu Qiulan couldn’t help but glare at her husband, saying, "You’re the same way."

The couple happily took their seats.
