Chapter 549 Your Man

The moment Ning Ran alighted, she saw Sunny, who had dyed his hair purple.

He was wearing a pink tapered trench coat and a pair of white leather trousers. With his flawlesswhite skin, one wouldn't be faulted for thinking that he was a girl

Sunny saw her too. “Ding Mi, my baby, come over here.”

His voice was so gentle and feminine that it made Ning Ran envious.

“Sunny, it's been a long time. I see you're as... fashionable as always.”

Just when Ning Ran walked over and shook his hand, she caught a whiff of the elegant perfume hewas wearing.

"Are you saying that I look slutty? Just speak candidly instead of telling me that I'm fashionable,”Sunny replied with a smile.

"I was worried about getting on your nerves,” Ning Ran returned his smile.

She truly liked Sunny a lot. Although he was weird, he was never hypocritical and always wore hisheart on his sleeve.

By being himself, it made him someone approachable. Nonetheless, it required a lot of couragefrom him to behave that way.

As a result, Ning Ran admired him for his attitude toward life.

“I won't be angry because I don't care about what others think of me. Even though more than halfof those in showbiz ridicule me for being crazy, they cannot do without my expertise, especially formajor events. After all, I excel in making people look amazing.”

While speaking, Sunny gestured with one hand and placed the other on his hip. It was an animatedsight indeed.

“I never said that you are crazy. Instead, I admire you for how unique you are,” Ning Ran added.

“I knew that you have good tastes. Come, let me take you to a tailor to get your evening gowndone,” Sunny remarked.

Half an hour later, Ning Ran met Sunny's tailor.

Assuming she was going to meet someone old, Ning Ran was surprised to see a young man instead.He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a grey suit. He also had his hair tied up in aponytail and a huge diamond ring on his finger.

Tall and dashing, he even had a vibrant look to his face.

“This is the famous designer, Giorgio. And this is Ding Mi. She's here to tailor a gown,” Sunnyintroduced them to each other.

"Pleasure to meet you, Giorgio,” Ning Ran greeted with a smile.

Without saying a word, Giorgio approached Ning Ran and scrutinized her from top to toe.

Ning Ran naturally felt uncomfortable being eyed by a man like that.

However, on Sunny’s account, she bore with it without protest.

"You have a very good figure, but why were you wearing such an ugly costume on the show? Whodesigned that ugly piece?” Giorgio asked a strange question all of a sudden.

Briefly stunned, Ning Ran quickly realized he was talking about The Sound of Thunder 2.

Having thought that the costume looked decent, she was surprised by Giorgio’s comment.

“I'm not really sure who designed it.” Ning Ran laughed awkwardly.

“I'm not saying you're ugly. In fact, you're pretty like an angel. I'm just criticizing the costume forbeing ugly. If I had designed it, you would have definitely looked divine!” Giorgio declared.

“That's enough. Considering how high your fees are, the production team can't afford you,” Sunnyinterjected.

Giorgio pondered a moment. “It's true that they can't afford me.”

“That's all there is to it. Anyway, take a look at her and design something for her to wear to theGolden Flower Awards,” Sunny instructed.

"What's your budget?” Giorgio asked.

“There's no limit. All that matters is that she looks stunning,” Sunny replied.

“No limit? That's not acceptable. The clothes I make have always been expensive. What if shedoesn't pay up?” Giorgio questioned.

“I'm here on Sir Chen's instructions. Do you think money is going to be an issue?” Sunny gave him acondescending look.

“In that case, there's no problem at all. Nonetheless, I have to let you know first that I don't tailoranything for less than a hundred thousand,” Giorgio reiterated.

Ning Ran was astounded. A hundred thousand?

"A hundred thousand for a gown?” Ning Ran stared at Giorgio.

“Yes. I only use the best fabric and accessories in the market. Hence, there's no way I can makeanything for less than that. Also, there's no ceiling for my prices,” Giorgio explained.

“Well...”

“Don’t worry. You don't have to pay for it. Sir Chen has asked the company to take care of it,” Sunnyreassured her.

“Isn't it too expensive still? Is it worth it just for a gown?” Ning Ran couldn't believe her ears.

“It's definitely worth it. In fact, it's not expensive at all, as clothes are everything to one’s beauty. Ifthat weren't the case, you would've gotten something from the mall instead of coming here to seeme. Actually, I'm in the midst of an order for one of the royal families. If it weren't because of Sunnyand Sir Chen, I wouldn't have bothered with you.”

Giorgio was visibly displeased.

Ning Ran apologized with a smile, “I'm sorry that my words have come across the wrong way. It'sjust that I have never worn anything this expensive before.”

“It's all right. Let's take your measurements now. When do you need the gown?" Giorgio asked“Next week,” Sunny answered.

“Next week? That's not possible. I'm sure that you're aware that the entire process, from design tothe final product, takes a long time. How am I going to finish the gown in only a few days?” Giorgiolamented.

“I don't care. All I know is that the awards ceremony is upon us, and she needs to be wearing yourgorgeous dress by then,” Sunny declared.

“Forget it. You should just get one from the mall. There's no way I can come out with a gown in justa few days.” Giorgio shrugged his shoulders.

“Sir Chen insists that you take the job. If you don't, I can’t guarantee that nothing will happen toyou. After all, you too are familiar with his temper,” Sunny threatened.

"Sir Chen is a reasonable man. Call him, and I'll explain it to him myself,” Giorgio replied, unfazed bySunny.

“Sure. Give Sir Chen a call.” Sunny turned to Ning Ran.

"Me?"

“Isn't it obvious? You should be the one calling because he’s your man, not mine,” Sunny remarkedsarcastically, causing Ning Ran to feel a chill down her spine.

It was terrifying to her when men spoke coquettishly, more so than watching a horror movie.

Left without a choice, Ning Ran gave Nan Chen a call, to which he quickly answered. “Speak.”"Giorgio wants to talk to you.”

Ning Ran handed the phone over to Giorgio like a hot potato after putting it on speaker.

“Sir Chen, it's been a long time. When are you dropping by to tailor some clothes?” Giorgio greeted.“You only do female clothing. They suit Sunny more than me,” Nan Chen quipped.

It sounded to Ning Ran that they knew each other well. Otherwise, Nan Chen wouldn't have saidsomething like that.

"Sir Chen, I'm unable to take this job. Although I feel the urge to tailor a gown for a beauty like her,there's just not enough time.”

“That's your problem,” Nan Chen countered.

“No, if you had let me know earlier, I would have been able to do it. But now, there isn't enoughtime. Why don't you get one from the mall this time? And I'll do it for her next time. Sir Chen, Iknow you're someone reasonable—"

“No, I'm not,” Nan Chen snapped.

Meanwhile, when Sunny tried to hide his smile, he did it with such elegance that Ning Ran couldn'thelp but feel impressed.

"Sir Chen, you're putting me in an impossible position—"
