But what was puzzling was that the living room light seemed to be on.
Jing Mian turned around and went to the small yard to open the door.
However, the person who appeared at the door was someone Jing Mian didn’t recognize, and there were three of them.
One of the shorter men smiled and said, “Mr. Jing, it’s me, do you remember me?”
Jing Mian was slightly stunned, the voice was somewhat familiar.
And since they were knocking on Mr. Ren’s door, they must know Mr. Ren.
However, the number of mutual friends between him and Ren Xingwan was almost countable on one hand. Apart from Mr. Ren’s assistant and agent, Jing Mian couldn’t think of a third.
The man wasn’t angry, he kept smiling, and reminded Jing Mian: “That time at the school anniversary, I helped you measure…”
Jing Mian remembered: “The tailor?”
“Yes! It’s me.”
The two reached a consensus, and the tailor pointed to the person next to him and introduced: “This is my master.”
Jing Mian nodded slightly and shook hands with the other gentleman: “Hello.”
The man who hadn’t spoken also shook hands with Jing Mian: “I have nothing to do with them, I just happened to run into them. I’m the chief planner for the wedding.”
“Are you looking for Mr. Ren?” Jing Mian hesitated, obviously at a loss for what to do with the visitors, so he took a step back and said, “Please wait, I’ll go call…”
Before the young man could turn around,
His back suddenly pressed against a broad and thick chest.
Mr. Ren held Jing Mian’s waist to steady him.
The man’s voice came from above his head, almost close to his ear, low and deep: “They’re here to try on our wedding clothes.”
“Just come in directly.”
“Alright, Mr. Ren.”
Jing Mian was led by Mr. Ren and entered the house first. He was a bit confused as he hung up his coat, changed into slippers, and prepared slippers for the guests.
Jing Mian thought, didn’t they already take measurements at the school anniversary?
Later, the clothes at the engagement banquet fit perfectly, so he thought the wedding would be the same, at least there wouldn’t be much trouble.
The tailor seemed to see Jing Mian’s confusion and explained: “The wedding will be more formal, such as the lighting and camera, the texture of the clothes will be more demanding, even down to every fold.”
Jing Mian suddenly understood.
The three followed Jing Mian to the living room, and the tailor placed the box of clothes on the sofa, saying: “So we made them in advance for you to try on. If there are any flaws that need to be improved, we can still make adjustments in the next few days.”
The taller one said: “Because it’s the first time, I’ll explain the general process of the wedding to you. It won’t take too much time, just to give you a mental preparation in advance.”
Jing Mian suppressed his surprise.
He thought, under normal circumstances,
Such trivial matters as confirming the process and trying on wedding clothes would require the person to go to the site or the store, everyone is like this.
But Mr. Ren… actually moved this process directly to the house?
Just like the private booking during the first meeting, this special treatment, Jing Mian could already imagine Mr. Ren waving money to make the other party submit.
As a partner, although he was holding a huge sum of five million, Jing Mian couldn’t help but feel a bit heartbroken for Mr. Ren.
Before they could sit down, Jing Mian suddenly heard the man speak in his ear:
“I’ll take a call.”
Mr. Ren’s voice was slightly deep, without any fluctuations. It was originally thought to be said to the guests, but when Jing Mian looked sideways, he realized that Mr. Ren was talking to him.
Jing Mian nodded.
The tall man was obviously well-prepared. Even though the wedding process he was describing was a bit boring, he was much more humorous and vivid than the usual planners. While describing the general layout of the current wedding, he also projected the simulation diagram onto the iPad.
So that Jing Mian didn’t have to imagine, he could roughly construct the wedding scene on the day.
And the scene that appeared in his mind was obviously much more dreamy and romantic than the rigid and boring wedding scene Jing Mian had imagined.
For example, their wedding was not set in a hotel, but outdoors near the coast. When night fell, exquisite hanging lights would light up, like embedded in tender green leaves, accompanied by the soothing performance of the band.
A treasure place that avoids the cold of winter and the boring heat of summer, romantic to the point of suffocation.
Completely the venue of Jing Mian’s dreams.
Jing Mian couldn’t help but ask: “Did you choose these?”
The tall man said: “No, I’m just helping to plan the scene. Most of the choices were made by Mr. Ren.”
Jing Mian was a bit surprised.
He originally thought that if Mr. Ren chose, the man would follow the rules and hold it in a solemn and rigid hotel.
Then, the tall man didn’t reveal all the details of the wedding to Jing Mian, but only roughly told Jing Mian the time to appear and the position on the scene, so that Jing Mian wouldn’t feel flustered and at a loss when facing the crowd coming to the wedding.
At the same time, it also appropriately preserved the mystery of the wedding for Jing Mian.
And the tailor next to him, after Jing Mian roughly understood the wedding process, also carefully took out the wedding clothes that had been prepared from the box. Even if there were slight wrinkles, the man smoothed them out one by one.
“There are three sets of clothes to wear for the wedding. This set for the ceremony is the main one, and there are two more for facing the guests, and another one for leaving the wedding scene, which doesn’t need to be so gorgeous and formal, but more comfortable.”
“The sizes of the three are not exactly the same, so Mr. Jing can try each one. If any one of them is uncomfortable to wear, you can tell us, and we can make changes before the wedding.”
Jing Mian understood: “Okay.”
The tailor smiled and said: “Then let’s try the wedding clothes for the ceremony first? This suit is different from the other two, it’s white.”
Jing Mian took it, took off the somewhat obstructive coat, revealing a more fitted undershirt, and put on the clothes prepared by the tailor.
No matter what style of suit, white is always the most challenging one, because it can’t make the figure look as powerful as black, but shows the most original and pure style of the owner of the clothes.
However, after Jing Mian changed,
The two sitting on the sofa, and the tailor standing next to them helping to smooth the clothes, were all stunned, as if they couldn’t suppress their shock, and didn’t react for several seconds.
Jing Mian: “…?”
He couldn’t help but ask: “What’s wrong?”
“No, nothing…”
The chief planner, who had been eloquent just now, was now a bit tongue-tied. He scratched his head and said: “It’s just… too beautiful, this is not a derogatory term, probably no one would wear this dress so appropriately.”
“Yes, this is not even controlling white, but a perfect match.”
The tailor couldn’t help but praise.
A while passed like this, until Jing Mian was almost sweating. The boss of the tailor finally shifted his attention and asked, “The cuffs and underarms seem like they could be tightened a bit? How does it feel, Mr. Jing?”
Jing Mian thought for a moment and replied honestly, “I’m not sure, but it feels just right for now.”
The tailor asked, “Mr. Jing, do you still have the suit you wore at your engagement banquet? That one was a tightened version; we could bring it over to compare.”
Jing Mian recalled that after the engagement banquet ended, he had left the hall with Mr. Ren to move things to the dormitory together.
However, before that, he had changed out of his clothes because they were inconvenient, and that suit had been packed into a bag and placed in the back seat of Mr. Ren’s car.
So Mr. Ren definitely knew where it was.
Jing Mian said, “Please wait a moment, I’ll ask my husband.”
He then turned and went upstairs.
Mr. Ren was probably in the study at this moment, Jing Mian thought. If Mr. Ren didn’t have time to answer, he would just look for it himself.
However, unlike usual, the study was not lit at this time.
It seemed the man was just making a quick phone call here.
The door was not closed, so Jing Mian knocked twice but received no response from Mr. Ren. He leaned in and gently walked inside.
To his surprise, the study was completely empty.
Just as Jing Mian was about to leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks because Mr. Ren happened to come in from outside.
The two of them met face to face, unable to avoid each other in time.
Jing Mian’s white suit was perhaps still on him because he was in a hurry and hadn’t taken it off.
His almond-shaped eyes were shadowed by the soft light, and his neck extended to the white collar, outlining the young man, with a few strands of hair falling, backlit, resembling a still painting.
Clearly beautiful and clean, without a hint of impurity, the elegant and fair neck and shoulders were accentuated by the white suit, highlighting his slender waist, making it particularly eye-catching.
It stirred an uncontainable tide of emotions.
Jing Mian also sensed that the atmosphere had suddenly become subtle.
It felt as if it was silently heating up, gradually becoming intoxicatingly difficult to articulate, even his breath felt inexplicably dry, and… they were a bit too close.
The last time this happened was when he was caught tying a tie for Xiao Chen, and then that unfinished kiss.
His throat involuntarily moved, and Jing Mian felt Mr. Ren grip his forearm, his back pressing against the wall.
—Mr. Ren was going to kiss him.
In a daze, he silently confirmed this in his heart.
It was hard to think, as Jing Mian’s mind was nearly unable to function.
Only his heart was pounding wildly.
However, Mr. Ren suddenly stopped, his voice somewhat restrained and deep:
“Wait, let’s go downstairs first.”
Jing Mian’s throat moved slightly, feeling a bit dazed: “…What?”
……
“Just say that the wedding attire is very suitable.”
Mr. Ren tightened his throat and said in a low voice:
“Let them go.”
