Guan Suling held Li Xiwu’s hand and sighed. “Actually, you’re more like your father, be it in temperament or demeanor. It’s just that when you wear this cheongsam, I seem to see your mother in a daze.”

Li Xiwu asked, “Did you custom-made this cheongsam for Mom back then?”

“Yes,” Guan Suling said gently. “I personally measured your mother’s size and custom-made this moon-white cheongsam back then. After she wore it back then, she didn’t take it with her.”

At the mention of MO Zhu, tears flickered in Guan Suling’s eyes. “I’ve always carefully treasured this moon-white cheongsam. I always thought that I could put it on you one day. Now, I’ve finally fulfilled my wish.”

MO Yan walked over while eating an orange and said, “That year, Aunt and Uncle were both at the MO residence for the New Year. I’ve seen Aunt wearing this cheongsam. Even now, I think it’s stunning.”

Li Xiwu glanced sideways at MO Yan. “Was I there too?”

“Of course.” MO Yan nodded and said with a smile, “We’re about the same age, just a little younger than you. Every time you and Aunt come back, we’ll play together. ”

As she spoke, MO Yan reached out, wanting to touch the cheongsam on Li Xiwu’s body. However, before her hand could touch it, Guan Suling gently slapped it away. “You just peeled an orange. Go wash your hands before touching it.”

MO Yan smiled awkwardly. “Okay, okay, okay. I’ll touch it after I wash it.”

MO Yan finished the orange in her hand and waved at the servant at the side.

The servant went forward and MO Yan said, “Bring water. I’ll wash my hands.” The servant nodded and turned to get water.

Guan Suling pulled Li Xiwu over and sat down. During this time, she could not bear to let go of Li Xiwu’s hand. She gestured to Dao Xi, who was standing at the side. “Go get that sable from my cabinet.”

Dao Xi nodded and turned to get it. At first, Guan Suling looked forward to Li Xiwu wearing this moon-white cheongsam. Now, she looked forward to the purple mink on Li Xiwu’s moon-white cheongsam even more.

She adjusted Li Xiwu’s shawl. “The cheongsam is suitable for early February spring. Although it’s covered by the shawl, it definitely won’t be able to withstand the winter wind. That sable is warm. It will definitely look good on you.”

Li Xiwu smiled back. “I’m fine now. I’m not that cold.’

“You won’t feel cold after changing into it. You’ll know it’s cold later.” Guan

Suling smiled. “Purple will definitely suit you, and purple has a charm.”

MO Yan teased from the side, “Of course purple has a charm, especially on Cousin. I think when Cousin-in-law comes later, he’ll probably stare straight at her.”

Guan Suling gave MO Yan a look. “Don’t tease your cousin.”

MO Yan chuckled. “I know, I know. Cousin’s ears are red.”

Li Xiwu looked slightly uncomfortable.

Guan Suling waved at MO Yan. “Alright, alright. Go do what you need to do.”

“It’s rare for me to take a day off from my manager today. If there’s nothing to do, I won’t leave.” MO Yan sat down and insisted on staying.

Li Xiwu smiled faintly, then asked MO Yan, “Have you accepted the parent-child variety show you mentioned previously?”

MO Yan’s eyes suddenly widened. She had wanted to find a suitable opportunity later to talk to Li Xiwu about her work. After all, Li Xiwu was a manager. Some suggestions could be referenced from Li Xiwu.

At this moment, Li Xiwu took the initiative to ask. MO Yan immediately sat up straight. “Cousin, are you paying attention to this variety show?”

Li Xiwu replied, “I didn’t pay attention. I just suddenly remembered and asked.”

“Oh, I didn’t take it. Last time, I listened to your suggestion and asked my manager to find out who was invited to this variety show.” With that, MO Yan leaned towards Li Xiwu. “It’s all thanks to your suggestion this time. My manager went to find out that Mr. Lu was also invited to the show.”

Afraid that Li Xiwu would not be able to remember who the Best Actor Lu in the entertainment industry was, MO Yan quickly added, “It’s Lu Jia. The show invited him and his wife.’

Li Xiwu nodded. “Yes, I know.”

MO Yan said, “Right… Huh! You know!”

Li Xiwu gathered her shawl. As she sat there, she could gradually feel the coldness. “I’ve been in contact with Lu Jia’s wife recently and know that they’re participating in this parent-child variety show.”

“Oh, I see.” Although MO Yan was very curious about how Li Xiwu interacted with Lu Jia’s wife, on second thought, Li Xiwu was a manager. It was not surprising that she knew everyone in the entertainment industry.

MO Yan continued, “The actresses are all rising, or those with a status comparable to mine, I have to avoid them. But it’s the same for the male actors. Lu Jia’s wife has never made it public on any platform. All the popularity and attention is on Lu Jia. If I go, I’ll just be a foil, so I simply rejected the invitation.”

Li Xiwu nodded in agreement. “This variety show is indeed very suitable for you from the perspective of a newcomer. The national popularity will increase a lot, but you have a certain status in the entertainment industry now. It’s best to avoid being a foil.”

MO Yan chuckled. “Yes, that’s why I’ve decided to take on the love variety.” Li Xiwu raised her eyebrows. “The script has been handed over?”

MO Yan said, “Yes, I’ve seen it. It’s a blind date variety show. I’m looking forward to it.

Guan Suling listened to Li Xiwu and MO Yan chat with a smile and did not speak until she heard MO Yan say that she was going on some blind date variety show. She immediately asked, “Is it a real blind date or a fake blind date?”

MO Yan said, “Grandma, guess.”

“I have nothing to guess. In any case, if you ask me, you’d better go on the kind of blind date variety show that can really bring back a boyfriend. You’re not young anymore. You have to think more about your marriage,” Guan Suling reminded.

MO Yan patronized the old lady again. “This must be a real blind date variety show. I went to this show to resolve my marriage.”

Guan Suling said, “You better be serious.”

At this moment, Dao Xi brought the sable over. “Madam, the clothes are here.”

Li Xiwu and MO Yan looked at Dao Xi at the same time. Dao Xi, who had returned, was carrying a walnut-colored vintage box. Not to mention how expensive the clothes in the box were, the box was already worth a fortune. Guan Suling raised her chin slightly. “Open it and take out the sable.”

Dao Xi nodded and carefully placed the box on the stone table. First, he took a pair of white gloves from his shirt pocket. After putting on the gloves, he slowly opened the box. After opening the box, what entered Li Xiwu’s eyes was a violet cross mink. Its fur color was visibly luxurious.

With gloved hands, Dao Xi carefully removed the sable from the box.
