Chapter 750: Ji Kunlan's Wedding

By the time they arrived, the Ji household was already crowded with people, and joyous celebration filled every corner.

Hearing they were Kunlan's colleagues, they warmly escorted the two to the room for the bride-to-be.

As soon as Ji Kunlan saw them, she excitedly tried to stand up, but her eldest sister, who was combing her hair, stopped her: "You can't move around like this now; your hair will be done in a moment."

Everyone presented their gifts and monetary offerings one by one.

Chuxue didn't follow the crowd; she simply placed her items in a corner, planning to find an opportunity to give them to her later.

Even though the style of the dress had been slightly altered, there was still some resemblance; since a contract had been signed with the garment factory, it was better to be cautious.

Ji Kunlan had been watching Chuxue all along, so her entrance and actions naturally did not escape her notice.

The two seemed to share a telepathic understanding.

After chatting with everyone for a while, Ji Kunlan found an excuse and led Chuxue into the inner partitioned room.

Everyone knew the two were close, so they didn't pay it much mind.

Upon entering, Chuxue carried the items straight in: "You understand me best."

Saying this, she first handed over the pickles and preserved vegetables she had made: "Put these away safely, and remember to take them with you when you leave."

Ji Kunlan hadn't expected her to still remember this matter and was deeply moved.

Seeing her expression, Chuxue quickly spoke up: "No, no, no, don't go giving me those teary-eyed 'Wang Wang' eyes, or you'll smudge your makeup; that would be a huge sin on my part."

Her playful manner directly made Ji Kunlan laugh.

Seeing the other person smile, Chuxue then continued, taking out that dress: "This is my wedding gift for you."

Before she even finished speaking, Ji Kunlan cried out: "Ah, this dress is too beautiful; I really like it so much."

Seeing that she liked it, Chuxue said: "I thought since you are going south soon, you might be able to wear it for a few days there, so I thought to give you a dress."

"Chuxue, you are truly too good."

People were still waiting outside, and the groom would be arriving to fetch the bride soon, so Chuxue got straight to the point and briefly explained the situation to Ji Kunlan: "So, it's best if no one sees this dress before you leave the capital; once you get to the south, it won't be much of a problem."

After all, she had mentioned this matter to the garment factory and had even proactively altered some details; furthermore, Ji Kunlan wouldn't have been free for many days anyway, and she wouldn't be able to wear it again until after the New Year.

By that time, the Capital Garment Factory would likely have already shipped its goods, so there would be no impact whatsoever.

Ji Kunlan hadn't expected this dress to be specially designed for her by Chuxue and was even more moved.

However, with Chuxue blocking her, she held it back just as before: "Chuxue, once I arrive, I will definitely keep the matters you told me about in mind."

Fearing she might really shed tears, Chuxue playfully pouted: "Clearly, I prepared this wedding gift with my whole heart, but with you saying that, it sounds a bit like a transaction of interests."

Having spent so much time together, how could Ji Kunlan not know she was doing it on purpose: "Oh dear, I was wrong, okay? I was just too happy, that's why I said that. Rest assured, even if you didn't give me this dress, I would still definitely help you get things done; after all, you are my best friend and sister."

After the two exchanged a few more playful words in the inner room, they heard someone shout from outside: "The wedding party has arrived; the groom is here to fetch the bride."

Ji Kunlan's face instantly turned red, and she was somewhat at a loss.

Seeing this, Chuxue laughed directly: "What are you still staring for? Hurry up and go wait on the bed in the outer room."

This time, Ji Kunlan also reacted, smilingly glaring at Chuxue, put the dress into the red cloth bag Chuxue had specially prepared, and quickly went out to the outer room to get on the bed, waiting for the wedding party to enter.
