Chapter 297: Are All Designers As Puckish As You?

Once Lucy brought Chen Zhao and Fali into Baron Mansion, she said, “Chen, I’m leaving. Bye.”
“Goodbye.” Chen Zhao and Lucy had a handshake, after which they separated.
“She’s pretty.” Fali sounded rather jealous.
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. “But not as pretty as you.”
He would never praise another lady before his girlfriend.
If he really continued Fali’s words, he would probably have to attend his own death anniversary next year.
Fali rolled her eyes back, but her face was filled with a sweet smile.
“Where do we go now?” Fali asked.
“Let me ask.”
Chen Zhao called Zola, “Zola, we’re already at Baron Mansion.”
“Are you inside? I forgot to tell you that you need an invitation card to enter…”
“We’re already inside. Met a friend at the entrance and she brought us in. We don’t know where to go now.”
“I’ll go and fetch you.”
Very soon, Zola found Chen Zhao and Fali. She first stared at Fali with a judgemental look.
“You must be Fali. You’re beautiful.”
“Hi, Ms. Zola.” Fali did not want to embarrass Chen Zhao in front of his friend, so she shook Zola’s hand.
Zola was glowing with health and energy.
In the past, she had truly been a female devil in her company.
Recently, however, she seemed to have changed completely.
“By the way, take this card, so that you won’t be stopped at the entrance again.” Zola gave Chen Zhao a gold card.
No matter how common the card looked, gold was a symbol of status.
“Thanks.” Chen Zhao took the card.
“Let’s go and meet my designers.”
When Chen Zhao and Fali entered the mansion, they looked like two farmers entering a big city.
The place was filled with lavish decorations. When they passed by the stage, Chen Zhao saw many hot models rehearsing with various kinds of clothes.
The stage was not a usual catwalk. Instead, it was circular with a very unique design.
The models were also not catwalking. They were moving in another kind of slow and elegant way.
Chen Zhao did not dare to stare at them. He had only glanced at the models briefly and Fali was already pinching the side of his waist.
When Zola saw this, she only smiled gently.
Soon, they reached the backstage. Zola took out a walkie-talkie. “Tris, Nat, Cooper, come to the backstage.”
Nobody dared to be slow toward the female boss.
Even the chief designers of Baron Mansion had to tremble before Zola.
Soon, Chen Zhao and Fali saw three designers with strong personal styles walk in.
Tris’ hair was very messy, as if she had not tidied it before. She had two dark patches near her eyes, but they were only part of her smoky makeup. She had a slim body and a purple lipstick.
Nat was a sissy. From his fancy clothes, it was obvious that he liked to display himself. He was bending his pinky and applying makeup on his face even before Zola.
Cooper had an orthodox handsome face with some beard. His hair was neatly combed into a braid.
Zola introduced the three designers to the two. “They’re the chief designers in my company. Which of them do you want your formal wear to be designed by?”
“Maybe Tris for Fali’s formal wear.” Chen Zhao appointed Tris to design for Fali.
“How about you?” Zola asked.
“Hey, handsome young man.” Nat blew Chen Zhao a kiss.
Chen Zhao shivered. While he was not homophobic, he could not get used to it. He could get along with people like Robio more.
“Mr. Cooper.”
“Thank you.” Cooper looked serious, maybe a bit too serious.
Nat did not mind it at all. He approached Zola and massaged her shoulders. “Zola, I made a new lip gloss recently. Do you want to try it?”
“Sure… Chen, Fali, excuse me for a while.”
Tris brought Fali to another room, while Cooper stayed in the same room with Chen Zhao.
“Sir, how should I address you?”
“Mr. Cooper, just call me Chen.”
“Chen, I’ll measure your sizes first. Remove your clothes.”
“All of them?”
“Except for your underwear.”
When Cooper saw Chen Zhao’s body, his eyes glowed. “God, your body is simply perfect!”
Chen Zhao felt as if Cooper had turned into Nat. He can’t be gay too…
Chen Zhao subconsciously covered his groin, thinking that the place was too dangerous for him.
Cooper extended his hand toward Chen Zhao’s chest. Chen Zhao immediately dodged. “Cooper, stop.”
“Err…” Cooper suddenly realized his inappropriate behavior. “Sorry, I was just too excited. You have the most perfect body I’ve ever seen.”
“Really? Those male models are all tall and muscular. They can’t be worse than me?”
“No, it’s a completely different feeling.” Cooper shook his head.
“This is the body proportions a man should have. You’re Venus!”
“Although I’m Chinese, I know that Venus is female.”
“That’s not important.” Cooper shook his hand.
“Of course it is.” Chen Zhao widened his eyes.
Cooper kept measuring Chen Zhao’s body and scribbling on a piece of paper with a pencil.
If someone asked Chen Zhao what was the most painful experience in his life, he would surely say it was being a stationary model.
Especially when he was the model for a paranoid designer.
Chen Zhao thought that Cooper looked normal, but he changed completely after starting to work.
While it showed how professional Cooper was, Chen Zhao still felt uncomfortable.
Very, very uncomfortable…
“Chen, what color do you like?”
“Just choose the most suitable color in your opinion.”
“You’re attending the show tomorrow with Ms. Fali, right?”
“Yes.”
“According to my understanding of Tris, she will probably design a white dress for Ms. Fali, so you should get something black.”
“Sounds great to me.” Chen Zhao did not know anything about it. Listening to a professional designer surely could not go wrong.
“This is my design. What do you think?” Cooper gave Chen Zhao his design diagram.
It was only a simple sketch, but the clothes looked really matching and comfortable.
Chen Zhao had to admit that Cooper was indeed an excellent designer.
Even though it was only a brief design, Chen Zhao felt that the formal wear would really suit him.
“If you have any objections, let me know.”
“Will you change it?”
“No.”
“…”
“Are all designers as puckish as you?”
