Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 231 Too Beautiful

Mu Zhi stood rooted to the ground, staring at the man who called himself her father.

Just as Mu Zhi was flustered to manage her thoughts and emotions, the man closed into her unwaveringly. “I understand that it might be hard to accept that I’m your father. But I’ll slowly prove myself.”

He turned back to glance at the wedding gown designer’s studio, then checked his time and said, “Mu Zhi, I was too anxious to rush here upon receiving the news. There should be something you need to do, and I shall not disturb you for now.”

Following that, the man who called himself her father straightened his back and left.

Mu Zhi gazed at the man as he walked away doubtfully. She hesitated for a long while before deciding to enter the designer’s studio.

Not long after, Lu Jinye showed up. Mu Zhi had picked several designs of wedding gowns by the time he got there.

As soon as he stepped through the door, Lu Jinye pointed at the gown with the royal cathedral train, “This one.”

That was similar to what the princess of England wore during her wedding.

The designer created two versions for the princess with some differences in the details.

The princess’ wedding gown was magnanimous and eye-catching, while this one skewed towards modesty.

Mu Zhi traced her gaze along the direction Lu Jinye pointed at and found the wedding gown. Her eyes widened with a twitch when she did, and she strode towards Lu Jinye to say, “Let’s not go with that.”

Moments earlier, when she just entered the bridal studio, the same wedding gown caught her attention.

However, the assistant designer mentioned that it was a priceless piece of work. One could not buy it just with money.

The assistant’s tone told Mu Zhi that it was a difficult feat to purchase that piece.
