Yun Shishi blushed at his reaction, but soon, she pursed her lips with a stupefied look. “How beautiful?”
Her husband slowly walked toward her and halted in front of her. Reaching out his hand, he tucked the hair wisps, dangling beside her cheek, behind her ear.
He was not an articulate man, nor did praise come easy for him.
Deep down inside, the man knew very well that this wedding dress could only be worn by the right woman to bring out its charm.
After seeing her in this dress, he could no longer think of anyone else who might be able to pull it off.
This dress was made for her, no doubt!
Other than the two words that came from his mouth, he really could not find a more appropriate phrase for her right now!
The two boys circled around their mother twice as they let out repeated cries of astonishment.
“This wedding dress doesn’t look as stylish as the mermaid dress, but it turns out to be very beautiful on mommy! Now I can’t wait to see how she’ll look in the mermaid dress! I’m sure she’ll look absolutely captivating in it!” said Youyou.
His older brother also exclaimed, “Mommy, you are actually this beautiful!”
That amused and vexed his mother at the same time. She could not help pulling her older son’s ear and demanding an explanation from him. “Tell me: What do you mean by me actually being this beautiful? Are you saying that I don’t look good when I’m not wearing a wedding gown?”
Little Yichen dodged her mommy’s hand playfully and muttered, “Well, you aren’t conscious with your dressing at home! You are always walking around in your jammies and pay no attention to your looks! I’ll think of you as an auntie soon!”
His mother was thoroughly vexed by then when her younger son retaliated, “Mommy will never become an auntie in my mind! She’ll never grow old!”
“Alright, I’m only making a joke!” The older one begged for mercy.
She was teased by the twin’s exchange again.
She would be a freak if she never grew old. Although there were a number of actresses who claimed to have stayed youthful for life in the entertainment industry, they could only pull off that claim by outrageous image packaging stunts and superb cosmetic procedures. Their looks had aged in reality, but the stars would not admit to the fact; that was all.
As for her, though, she was determined to age gracefully.
Her younger son suddenly exclaimed, “Mommy, why don’t you try the mermaid dress now? I really like that dress a lot; I’m sure you’ll look good in it!”
She did not know what to say to his enthusiasm.
The boy continued in all seriousness. “Actually, I’ve studied wedding dresses for quite some time. I believe that mermaid-style suits you the most! I even drew a sketch of you in a mermaid gown!”
The boy had a flair in drawing, and with his vivid imagination, he had drawn his mother wearing a mermaid dress. The sketch turned out to be so good that he was absolutely besotted with the look. He could not wait to see his mother wearing one.
The store clerk immediately walked over to the protagonist with the mermaid dress in her hand and suggested eagerly, “Ms. Yun, why don’t we try the mermaid dress next?”
The lady glanced at her younger son and then nodded.
“Alright,” acquiesced Yun Shishi before poking Youyou’s head teasingly. “I will grant your wish this time!”
“Yipee!” The boy let out an excited scream, asking vivaciously thereafter, “Do you need a helping hand, mommy?”
She pointed to a signage on the door and reminded, “Do you see that? It reads: ‘No males allowed.’”
Her son hung his head in disappointment before he was energized again by a thought. “Well, then; I’ll just wait for you here to appear in the mermaid dress!”
