The Rebirth Of A Fashion Mogul

The contrast from a chilly temperature to a comfortable warmth was experience by the two teenage girls that entered the building.

Elegant European Architecture , and delicious western desserts were Catherine 's Tea Room speciality .It also had facilitates for events on the upper floors and was an elite gourmet desert shop on the west side of G City.

Jin Yu and Song Xia were given the tasks to bring the desserts to the Mei Li for the grand opening. Aunt Mei had promised that her nephew would soon arrive to help them bring it back to store in time for the grand opening at 3:30 p.m.

While paying for the delivery at the counter Song Xia felt a piercing gaze but she brushed it off as paranoia.

" Miss, here's your receipt.Will you'll like to take a seat while we get the parcel ready?" The well dressed hostess smiled and took them to a table.

Coincidentally, today was Gao Hong's birthday. Luo Jingfei and Pei Su had taken her out to celebrate with an expensive family lunch at Pengfei Hotel. After ,which an elaborate sweet 16 party that was meticulously planned at Catherine 's Tea House where all of her classmates attended.

In a cream hall decorated with pink balloons , ribbons and streamers a girl wearing a bright pink dress and a tiara glared hatefully at the second floor.

For Gao Hong her 16th Birthday had began wonderfully. Her mother spoiled her and her new stepfather had the money to treat her like a princess. She had received a new computer, a closet full of new clothes and a Claire diamond bracelet worth almost 100000 yuan!

+++

Initially ,when she noticed Song Xia and Jin Yu at the building she Gao Hong felt they were beneath her. Now she had a father who had a company and properties worth millions of yuan. So ,what if Song Xia came here?She was just a poor ,orphaned scholarship student who would have to work hard and get good grades.For one item on the menu they would have to save for months.

Gao Hong even considered inviting them Jin Yu and Song Xia up for a piece of cake. Since ,it was her birthday wouldn't she would get good karma for helping the poor?

" Waiter! Do you see those two girls at the the bottom table? Serve them a slice of my birthday cake and we'll pay their bill! Tell them it is an act of charity !"

Gao Hong snickered with and Wang Ju next to her let out a loud belly laugh.

" Well doesn't she deserve it? She embarrassed me at school and spoke badly of my mother !"

Gao Hong clenched her fist as she remembered the humiliation of being suspended.

' Song Xia just you wait! Today , I'm being nice since it's my birthday . Soon, I will return this humiliation a hundred times!"

+++

The waiter frowned but complied with Gao Hong's orders.

" Good afternoon. It is Miss Gao Hong's Birthday today and she wanted me to pass you this note.She also wanted to pay your bill and offer you a slice of birthday cake."

Song Xia and Jin Yu exchange glances across the table that clearly questioned what Gao Hong was up to now.

Jin Yu frowned as soon as the waiter left, " Xiao Xia, what tricks does Gao Hong want to play now?"

Song Xia glanced at the badly cut pieces of cake on the table before opening Gao Hong's note.

" What does she mean? Why does she always pick on you? Does she have nothing better to do besides trying to bully people?"

Jin Yu was furious.

Song Xia lifted an eyebrow and despised Gao Hong's childish antics.

" Relax ,Xiao Yu. Today is an important day for Mei Li and we shouldn't ruin our mood because of insignificant people."

+++

'Everything was perfect until that stray ruined it!'

A handsome, tall young man who drove a Rolls-Royce worth millions of dollars walked in to talk to Song Xia and Jin Yu before helping the staff load parcels in the car.

" Hong Er, isn't that the rich hottie we saw outside driving a Rolls-Royce? Is he with those girls? Do you think he's single?"

Wang Ju's heavily made up face inched closer to Gao Hong as she excitedly pointed out said person.

'Who is that guy? Was he interested in Song Xia? First ,Shen Xue, then Mo Zixuan and now another rich person! Why does everyone like Song Xia!'

The rest of the party Gao Hong was miserable. Obviously today was her birthday but Song Xia the cause of a misery left without a second thought.

+++

Aunt Mei's nephew was very polite, quiet and distant. He only greeted them and confirmed who they were before helping load the car .

" Hello, I'm Tao Zhiqian. My Aunt sent me to pick up the delivery ."

A tall boy with very fair skin and sword like eyebrows spoke. He was very striking and had classic handsome features . However , his serious demeanor made him seem mȧturė and strict.

A bit intimidated and voice softly sounded

" Hello, I'm Jin Yu"

" Hello, I'm Song Xia. Thank you for your help."Song Xia greeted the him after which the trio walked towards the back entrance where a staff member was prepared to ȧssist them.

In the car Jin Yu was nervous that perhaps Aunt Mei's nephew disliked them and didn't want to give them a ride to Mei Li.

" Xiao Xia, do you think he doesn't want to give us a ride? Should we get a taxi instead?"

Jin Yu whispered while looking at the stoic expression on Tao Zhiqian's face.

" Xiao Yu, I know that he seems a bit quiet but I don't think he's unwilling. Remember, how I was before... Maybe he's just a bit awkward around new people."

+++

Mei Li was bustling with activity as everyone was getting ready for the opening ceremony.

Tang Bai was arranging the seating g while Qian Mei and Shi Qi had finished arranging the desserts table .

" Mei, why did you want the cupcakes at the entrance?"

" Qiqi, there are only 50 cupcakes. The first people who arrive will get a special prize in the center of the cupcake. I decided on a sterling silver coin with a special design. Each design corresponds with a free gift, voucher , membership card or discount ."

Shi Qi grinned.

" Qiqi, your so annoying! I did attend sometimes!"

Qian Mei pouted at Shi Qi's teasing when suddenly an arm wrapped around her waist.

" My wifey, Master Dai is here."

Tao Xiaowen 's deep voice and breathes tickled Qian Mei's ear making her blush a bit .

" Husband, behave!"
