One Useless Rebirth

Chapter 57: He was Screwed (2)

Ten minutes later, an honorable lady from G district with some political background posted a picture on her Weibo, and she @Yi Ka apparel and the official account of Little Mermaid. She thanked Yi Ka apparel for the sponsorship of her daughter’s engagement dress, which was highly appreciated by her daughter.

There was a slim lady with her back to the shot in the picture. She was wearing a white-pink gradient fantasy tulle dress, with her hair coiled, and a pink diamond ring on her finger hanging by the side, holding flowers in her hand.

Spectators online soon recognized that the dress she wore belonging to the Princess collection launched today, and was the most expensive one named Cinderella among the whole collection. The masses were truly shocked.

Netizen one: This is the first one who wears the princess collection. How quick! Amazing.

Netizen two: The ragging dress that Miss Di Chunhua disliked is truly lovely. The bride is gorgeous in her dress. Though targeting at maiden consumers, the apparel of Little Mermaid seems to be suitable for young girls in their early twenties.

Netizen three: If the bride can put it on so quickly, the honorable lady must have got the dress from the Little Mermaid in advance through some special channels. Maybe she has signed some kind agreements. I can’t tell what the honorable lady may think at the moment if she knows that her daughter’s engagement dress is said to be rags worn by beggars.

Netizen four: The lady must be feeling annoyed. What a happy thing it is for her daughter to get engaged. She even got a special dress that’s off the market for her daughter, who shall be as beautiful as a princess’s, and to be the unparalleled first “princess”. To her surprise, someone brings contempt upon herself.

Netizen five: Haha...no wonder the Little Mermaid did not lend the dress to Di Chunhua, such a bad-mannered playgirl. How could she match the daughter born by the combination of a scholarly family and a political bigwig? Who is the real princess and who is not can be differentiated at a glance. Haha...

Qin Li’s face was twisted with anger when she scanned the comments below the Weibo post.

She just couldn’t believe that! This was this ultimate goal of this trap! Recently, the Qin family was planning to develop the market in district G, and had invested quite some money to pull strings and make contact with the officials in that district. Now her daughter had offended the local bigwig by saying that “ragging dress for beggars”. The Qin family was bound to be targeted against!

“Di Bian!” She clenched her fist and shook her hands in anger. “I always value our couple’s mutual affection, I’ve never doubted you. But you, treating my Qin family as a thorn in the eye, set us up. For the sake of disgusting my family, you went so far as to take advantage of our daughter!” Now our daughter was bearing the name of a fake princess who had offended the genuine one. It would be difficult for her to marry a good man in the future.

It was the first time that Di Chunhua saw her mother mentioning her father in such a hateful tone, she felt more frightened than ever before. Then she rushed to hug her mother in a panic. “Mom, please don’t. Dad would never do that to me. He loved me so much. No, it must be a mistake. I know, it is Di Qiuhe!” Right, Di Qiuhe must have had instigated dad! Mom, don’t quarrel with dad, I’m afraid, I’m afraid...

Qin Li came back to herself and saw her daughter was frightened. She subdued her anger and hugged her daughter, comforting while gnashing her teeth, “Yes, it’s Di Qiuhe’s fault. Mom and dad are at peace. Don’t worry. You are our little dove. Don’t be afraid...” No way! The kids were far from being matured. Their surname was Di. They should get whatever they deserve. I had to endure everything. Di Bian, if you dare to reap profit at our children’s cost, then you shall not blame me for not caring about our couple’s mutual affection anymore!

Day by day, there were new hot topics online. With the cancellation of Di Chunhua’s Weibo account, the bubbling and gurgling gossip of “a playgirl of the slack rich family” had finally came to an end.

Though it was over, Di Chunhua earned a bad reputation in the views of people concerned in the long run, while Qin Li’s image of a “good wife” had also been shadowed by a “vicious stepmother”.

The Qin family began to take a low profile approach, while Di Bian was retreiving the rights of Huangdu step by step. Qin Li concentrated less on dealing with Di Qiuhe and more on family issues.

“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is off.”

He Bai put down his mobile phone and frowned.

It had been nearly a week that he failed to get through Di Qiuhe or receive any text messages...Was the training come to the final sprint?

He had no idea, and he shook his head and sent Di Qiuhe another text message, asking where Di was going to celebrate his birthday. Then he went to Yi Ka with his camera.

For princess and elf collections were sold in limited editions and had no restocking if sold out. Thus the Little Mermaid had recently launched several other capsule collections to make up for the vacancy. Furthermore, for the autumn was coming, he had to prepare a new round of publicity for new autumn clothes. He kept busy once again.

At the end of August, the sales of Little Mermaid kept rising steadily. The photograph for autumn clothes had shot while the effect of these finished photograph was excellent. These photographs were even employed by a fashion magazine abroad, which was a good chance for the Little Mermaid to make a free publicity. Lin Xia was so delighted that she applied for a large bonus for He Bai, and then gave him a vacation in advance, telling him that he could come to the company only on weekends or when he had no classes in the later term on the priority basis that he had finished his due work.

He Bai thanked her and accepted it with gratitude, he stopped going to Yi Ka every day after finishing his work.

September approached, students returned to school one after another, and the school was getting busy.

On September 1st, He Bai and Niu Junjie picked up Wang Hu and Chen Jie, who had returned to school on the same day, in the airport and the railway station. They had a good meal outside, chatted about their vacation experiences, and then came back to school to unpack their stuffs for the coming junior year.

On Friday, September 5th, the classes of first week in junior year ended. He Bai parted his roommates and took a bus to the airport.

He landed at ten pm, and then he cabbed toward a hotel nearest to Di Qiuhe’s training base. After checking in, he had a good sleep.

He got up early On September 6th, rented a kitchen from the hotel manager and set about baking cakes.

He made a plain fruit cake after quite a flurry. He looked at the cake with disappointment, put it in a box and started to cook “birthday noodles”.

It was dark when he was ready. He then went out to buy two fireworks, called a car, moved everything to the car, and told driver the address of the training base.

He took out his mobile phone as the car started, there were several missed calls from Di Qiuhe. He thought for a while, replied Di a text message.

He Bai: I was stayed by my teacher at night, and I didn’t pay attention to the phone. What were you calling for?

Di Qiuhe dialed him right away, but he hung up, and then sent Di another text message.

He Bai: I can’t answer your call right now. I’m in the library.

Di Qiuhe: May you come to celebrate my birthday? Shall I book you a ticket?

He Bai looked sideways at the unfamiliar city scene outside the window, smiled and typed back: I have my weekend off, and it is convenient to see you. You should concentrate on your training. I have bought the ticket. Don’t worry.

Di Qiuhe: When? I’ll send a car to pick you up.

He Bai: Ten a.m. tomorrow. Just in time for lunch there.

Di Qiuhe: OK, I’ll wait for you.

Di Qiuhe: Don’t get conned by strangers if you come. Don’t accept water and food from others. Keep your wallet and certificate close.

Di Qiuhe: Keep me updated about your itinerary. Do you come to stay with me or in a hotel?

Di Qiuhe: Stay with me. Hotel is not safe for you.

Excuse me? The hotel owner shall be pissed off by these words.

He Bai couldn’t help laughing and answered, “You amah.”

Di Qiuhe: What did you say?

Di Qiuhe: What do you mean?

Di Qiuhe: You pup want to be punished again? You know what you are gonna get for being naughty!

He Bai: Then I won’t come. Happy birthday, bye.
