Chapter 46: Chapter 44: The dress

As Jiang Yixuan and Qin Rui step inside the mall, the bright lights and colorful displays catch their attention. They start walking towards the store they had planned to visit, passing by a smiling assistant who greets them warmly, "Welcome to our store, may I help you with anything?"

Jiang Yixuan smiles back and replies, "Yes, please. I need a dress for an upcoming banquet." The assistant nods and gestures towards the women's clothing section, "Right this way."

Jiang Yixuan starts browsing through the clothes, carefully inspecting each piece as Qin Rui stands beside her. Suddenly, a voice interrupts her concentration, "Jiang Yixuan, is that you?" She turns around to see Cao Lingling and Ma Yanan, her old classmates from high school. These were the last people Jiang Yixuan wanted to run into.
