Ou Ximing clenched and unclenched his fists.
After a long while, he suddenly took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. A mocking smile appeared on his face.
“Back then, you said that you wanted to be the most beautiful woman in the world. I was willing to learn styling for you and accompany you to participate in the competition. I was the one who turned you into the school belle bit by bit. I was also the one who helped you win the championship. In the end, you said that Liang Chenyi had never abandoned you?”
“With your current reputation, so many people are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself. So you think that if you’re with me, you’ll become a joke in the eyes of others, right?”
Zhao Zimo’s expression was a little ugly. She bit her lips and finally said, “… Sorry.”
Ou Ximing couldn’t help but sneer. “Alright, I understand.”
He let out a long sigh, his throat still full of sarcasm.
“The doubts that have been in my heart for so long have finally been resolved, and I can finally relax. However, I still have to thank you. Because of you, I chose to be a stylist, which can be considered to have set a direction for my life. I feel that I don’t owe you anything, so I won’t be stingy with my thanks. Then from now on…”
Ou Ximing’s eyes were filled with determination and coldness, causing Zhao Zimo’s heart to turn cold. She couldn’t help but take two steps back.
In her panic, she heard Ou Ximing’s cold voice.
“Then from now on, we’ll have nothing to do with each other! You’re right. You and I, be it now or in the future, will not be from the same world.”
Zhao Zimo’s face relaxed slightly. “It’s great that you think that way.”
Ou Ximing sneered and let out a long sigh.
In the fitting room, the door was half-opened.

Lan Xianxian bit her lips and looked at Zhao Zimo and Ou Ximing angrily.
“How can Miss Zhao be so ungrateful? Mr. Ou treats her so well, but she actually said such words? She’s too much!”
Shen Fanxing retracted her gaze and adjusted her gown.
Unlike Lan Xianxian’s indignation, a faint smile appeared on her face.
“There are always a few unreasonable people who give you the urge to trample on them.”
Lan Xianxian clenched her fists tightly as she stared at Ou Ximing. She couldn’t see his expression clearly, but she couldn’t help but feel sad.
She had only heard Shen Fanxing’s words, but she hadn’t digested them.
In less than two minutes, a man in a white ink-print suit pushed the door open.
When Mother Zhao saw the man at the door, she looked at Ou Ximing’s disdainful face and smiled. Just as she was about to greet him, the man was surrounded by a few people.
“You’re Director Liang, right?”
“I’m the assistant designer here. I like you very much!”
“I’m Ahern, the stylist here. Mr Liang, it’s an honor to meet you. I participated in the International Beauty Expo last time and was lucky enough to win fifth place. However, Mr Liang is still the champion. I’m convinced.”
When they saw Liang Chenyi, the designers, stylists, assistants and even customers crowded around him.
Liang Chenyi had a polite and humble smile on his face, but the way he was surrounded by people and treated with respect made him look arrogant.
“The style that Mr Liang has designed for Miss Zi Mo during the fashion week over the past two years has always been eye-catching. It has attracted the attention of the international fashion industry. Many international designers want to collaborate with you!”
“At Paris Autumn and Winter Fashion Week in two days, I believe Mr. Liang’s work will definitely make Miss Zi Mo the most dazzling existence in the fashion week.”
“Although I really want to win this year’s International Beauty Expo, I heard that Mr Liang has also signed up for it. I’m afraid the chances are slim this year.”
Liang Chenyi smiled gently and said, “You flatter me. I’m just trying my best. All the best.”
The stylist in the shop nodded in surprise. “I hope I can consult Mr. Liang when I have the chance.”
Liang Chenyi took it and glanced around before his gaze landed on Zhao Zimo.
Seeing this, the surrounding people retreated tactfully.
Under Liang Chenyi’s gaze, Zhao Zimo blushed shyly.
Mrs Zhao patted her hand in relief and smiled as she watched Liang Chenyi walk over.
Then, she looked at Ou Ximing and shook her head.
“See, Ximing? This is the difference between you and Chenyi. Zi Mo is a famous celebrity and Chenyi is an internationally renowned stylist. The two of them are the most compatible. But you…”
Disdain flashed across her face again.
“Mom, Zimo…”
Liang Chenyi had already arrived and greeted Mother Zhao and Zi Mo with a smile.
In the end, she looked up and was pleasantly surprised as if she had just seen Ou Ximing.
“Senior Brother? What a coincidence to meet you here! Why are you in Ping Cheng?”
Ou Ximing looked at him coldly without saying a word.
Liang Chenyi raised an eyebrow and pulled Zhao Zimo into his embrace. He then tucked her hair behind her ear.
“Or are you here to attend my wedding with Momo? Senior Brother is really considerate.”
Ou Ximing looked at him expressionlessly and said, “Congratulations.”
Liang Chenyi raised an eyebrow and smiled disapprovingly.
She whispered to Zhao Zimo, “Have you chosen a wedding gown?”
Zhao Zimo shook her head. At this moment, the shop assistant immediately said,
“The wedding gown section is not here. Please follow me.”
Ou Ximing watched as the couple hugged each other and walked towards the second floor without any change in expression.
Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly and followed behind them.
Ou Ximing closed his eyes tightly. The stylist, who had been complimenting Liang Chenyi, had appeared out of nowhere. He glanced in Liang Chenyi’s direction and asked Ou Ximing,
“You’re a stylist too?”
Ou Ximing slowly opened his eyes and looked at him indifferently. “Yes.”
“You know Mr Liang.”
“No, I don’t.”
Ahern frowned and sized him up with disdain.
“That’s true. How can an unknown nobody like you know the famous Mr Liang?”
After saying that, he was about to chase after Liang Chenyi and the rest when the door opened again.
Yu Song pushed the door open and entered. He held the door and stood respectfully.
Then, a tall figure walked in with steady steps.
