After Divorcing, She Became An Absolute Beauty

Chapter 48: One Must Be Wary of Others

“I’ll say it again. Apologize to my Master,” Du Jiuyuan patiently repeated.

It would have been fine if it was only her own effort, but she also had her master’s help in creating the cheongsam.

“Are you crazy? Why should I apologize?” Loki felt incredulous.

“Because you are the one who cut my cheongsam,” Du Jiuyuan quickly replied.

Loki became even more flustered. He steadied his mind and said with conviction, “You don’t have any evidence. How can you say that I am the one responsible for this? As a stylist, you didn’t fulfill your responsibility of protecting the cheongsam, and now you are falsely accusing me? Not only do you have no professional ethics, but you also have no morals!”

“For your information, I sprinkled a special powder on the cheongsam. Anyone who comes into contact with it will be contaminated by the fragrance. The smell won’t dissipate for a long time. Since you destroyed the cheongsam, you would have definitely touched it,” Du Jiuyuan said slowly.

Everyone present understood what she meant. Judging from Loki’s condition, he was definitely the one who destroyed the cheongsam. Loki subconsciously sniffed his hand and quickly hid it behind his back.

“Ridiculous! I helped you out of kindness, but you turned around and bit me. I… I won’t forget this!” With that, Loki fled.

Luoluo wanted to chase after him, but Du Jiuyuan stopped her. Now was not the time to pursue the matter.

“Forget it. I’ll tell Master the truth about this.” Du Jiuyuan was no longer Mrs. Ji who used to swallow her pride.

“But what should I do about my dress?” Everything happened too quickly. The naive Luoluo was caught off guard.

“Time is tight. Even if I borrow some other dress now, I won’t be able to deliver them in time,” Brother Yang looked at the time and said in defeat.

Du Jiuyuan was silent. She walked to the side and took out the bag that she had brought over. There was actually an identical white cheongsam in it.

“Master and I made two of them together, just in case we need them.” Du Jiuyuan really had to thank the Ji family for all those years she spent with them. Not only had they honed her ability to adapt to changes, but they had also helped her maintain a sense of calmness during a crisis at all times.

Luoluo was elated. She hugged Du Jiuyuan and cheered.

“You’re really good. I knew I made the right choice!” Luoluo was an innocent and kind child by nature, and she was also a narcissist.

Du Jiuyuan was speechless.

Brother Yang let out a sigh of relief. “Miss Du is really prepared for a rainy day. It’s truly Luoluo’s honor to meet you.”

“Yuanyuan is still as good as before!” He Lili praised generously.

“Was Yuanyuan this good in the past?” Luoluo’s big, twinkling eyes were full of curiosity.

“That’s for sure. Yuanyuan was an influential figure in school. Many people tried to defame her, but in the end, she defeated all of them.”

Luoluo immediately looked at Du Jiuyuan like a little fangirl. This was the first time she admired someone so much.

“Alright, alright. Don’t listen to her nonsense. Someone once told me that a person should not have the heart to harm others, but they should still be wary about potential dangers.”

“Who is the one who told you that?” Luoluo asked curiously.

“Lili, hurry up. Let Luoluo change her clothes first before doing her hair. I’m going to get something.” Du Jiuyuan did not answer and changed the topic instead. After saying that, she walked out without looking back.

Ji Jingchen was the one who had said those words. When she was in school, she had signed up for a design competition. Her clothes had been destroyed, and there wasn’t enough time to get another one. She anxiously looked for her master to seek justice.

Her master ignored her and only said, “This is the most important lesson in your life. If you can’t even protect your own work, how can you talk about the future?”

At that time, she had lost her fighting spirit and returned home with her clothes. She didn’t eat or drink and locked herself in her room to secretly wipe away her tears.

At that time, Ji Jingchen appeared. He brought some food and stood in front of Du Jiuyuan before saying, “This is how society works. You can’t have the heart to harm others, but you need to always be wary of dangers. If you can’t adhere to this simple principle, you’re not suitable for this sinister society.”

Du Jiuyuan remembered those words clearly. No matter what, she would always be vigilant. She retrieved a piece of jewelry that she had borrowed from a jeweler and dressed Luoluo up properly. A beauty from the Republic of China period appeared in front of everyone.

“Wow! It’s almost like I walked out of a painting. Yuanyuan is really amazing!” Luoluo praised sincerely.
