Chapter 285: Game of Thrones (3)
Cheng Xiaoyu went home to change dresses at almost the same time as Su Yuxi in the afternoon, Cheng Xiaoyu's wardrobe was full of various dresses customized by Qiao Sansi according to Cheng Xiaoyu's latest figure, Cheng Xiaoyu was also a little dazzled for a while, and he didn't know which set to wear.
Qiao Sansi picked out two sets of dresses from the wardrobe and introduced, "You must wear formal dresses to attend the dinner party, ordinary people in China generally can't tell the difference between dresses and suits, or simply think that dresses are tuxedos, but in fact, tuxedos are just a type of dress." ”
"The scope of dresses is quite wide, and they are worn during the day and at night, and they can also be classified according to large dresses and small dresses. They are divided into: morning dress (daytime dress), tuxedo (evening dress), director suit (daytime dress), and tashido (evening dress). There is also a regular dress that spawns between a suit and a tuxedo. In addition, there are some standards that ordinary people don't wear, such as acting dresses, etc., so I won't introduce them to the young master. ”
Cheng Xiaoyu knew that he had very little understanding of Western aristocratic culture, and why Huaxia wanted to use the Western upper class was because Huaxia had not established a complete set of aristocratic social etiquette and details, and the complete set of high-bentry social etiquette in the West just filled the vacancy in Huaxia in this regard.
Cheng Xiaoyu tried two sets of dresses suitable for dinner parties, he was not suitable for wearing a tuxedo, in fact, most Chinese people are not suitable for wearing a tuxedo designed for tall Europeans, so he chose the less formal Tuxedo. Because of his slightly chubby figure, he avoided the crescent collar and the open placket gown, and the color was naturally dark navy blue.
Because you don't wear a waistcoat, you have to wear a waistband. And the white shirt with pleats on the chest is a choice that will never be wrong and will not be outdated in the dress, but the shirt chosen by Cheng Xiaoyu is a black jewel button, which can shine with colorful light in the light, which is quite dazzling.
Qiao Sansi helped Cheng Xiaoyu tie the waist seal, and said to Cheng Xiaoyu, "The difference between Tushiduo and other dresses is that the forged gun lapels or green fruit collars used are used, and even the side pockets must be forged if they are truly standardized, and there can be no pocket covers." The clasp must be wrapped in forging. And remember to wear a waist band when wearing, if you don't wear a waist band, you can't wear a belt, it's a very shameful thing. ”
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded and took the silver retro carved cuffs inlaid with gems handed over by Qiao Sansi. Then Qiao Sansi put Brioni's silk scarf in Cheng Xiaoyu's jacket pocket, tied a black dolce & Gabbana bow tie, turned his head to look at Cheng Xiaoyu in the mirror and said, "It's so handsome! ”
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled, Buddha relied on gold. People want clothes, this is the modification that people with imperfect looks and figures need, as for a girl like Su Yuxi, who looks against the sky, she will look good in whatever she wears, he looked through the window in the corridor wearing a blue-purple off-the-shoulder evening dress and a coat, carrying the skirt carefully, her navy blue hair was coiled high, and a tender yellow camellia was inserted in the back, just the back had already eclipsed the sky.
Qiao Sansi had already left the room at this time, and Cheng Xiaoyu walked to the desk and took out a round European-style court-style hollow carved jewelry box, which he also used to discarded wood and gold. Some of the excess diamonds were also set on it. And what's inside is the Midwinter Feather.
Cheng Xiaoyu put the box in the pocket of his suit, put on pointed scalp shoes with laces, and walked downstairs, because it was a gathering of juniors, Zhou Peipei and Su Changhe would not go.
Su Yuxi sat in the back seat of Maybach Zeppelin and waited for Cheng Xiaoyu, Cheng Xiaoyu was holding a jewelry box in her hand, turning her head to look at the Cartier diamond necklace around her neck but didn't know whether to give it to her now. I don't know why I gave my sister a birthday gift, but it became difficult here for Cheng Xiaoyu.
Wang Huasheng started the car, the slender Maybach quietly slid out of the villa gate, and Su Yuxi looked at Cheng Xiaoyu, who was sitting upright. smiled slightly, "I'm so handsome today!" and stretched out his hand to straighten Cheng Xiaoyu's bow tie, which was a little crooked.
Cheng Xiaoyu felt that Su Yuxi's smile was a little insincere, and looked at her side face with her noble hair bun and replied, "Is it just today?" I thought I was handsome every day in your eyes!"
"Do boys always mind the image in girls' hearts?"
"No, in fact, most guys only mind the image he has in the heart of the girl he likes. Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and said, that tone was so natural.
"In fact, sometimes it is a kind of luck to be born in an ordinary family. Su Yuxi said lightly. "When Qiao San taught me how to laugh in social situations, I felt like a fool. People often say that laughter is the lubricant of interpersonal relationships, which can make people get along more harmoniously and naturally, but the social smile of high society is so hypocritical. I will always remember when I was in an etiquette class, he said with a lot of humor: "Upper class people see laughter as a sign of verbal embarrassment." Remember what the Earl of Chesterfield taught his son: one has only ever seen the smiling face of a gentleman. But I never heard him laugh out loud. If you really can't contain your laughter, try to mislead people into thinking it's a cough from chronic bronchitis or a winter cold. ”
Seeing Su Yuxi imitating Qiao Sansi to speak, imitating in a similar way, Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing, "So people like me are destined not to become upper-class people." ”
When Su Yuxi heard Cheng Xiaoyu say this, he turned his head and said, "The Chinese people just misread the spirit of aristocracy, and forget that real aristocratic gentlemen look down on money." They don't know that nobility means honor, they think they are nobles if they attend a few charity auctions, they think they go to a few high-society dinners, they think they wear expensive jewelry in a luxurious dress, and they talk about red tape. But in my eyes, a person like my brother deserves the word "gentleman". ”
Cheng Xiaoyu's face was feverish, and he lowered his head and said, "I'm far from good enough, in fact, there are many moments when I can't resist the temptation of materialism, and I can't sacrifice myself for the weak, and my life is more hedonistic, and I don't necessarily have the courage to say no when I encounter power." ”
"I feel like there are times when I understand you better than you do. What you say is all about yourself on the surface, but in fact, your self-restraint everywhere and your careful care for the weak people all show that you are spiritually noble. Su Yuxi did not approve of Cheng Xiaoyu's self-analysis, thinking that he was just modest. But Cheng Xiaoyu felt that he was willing to become a person recognized by Su Yuxi, a person with an aristocratic spirit.
The two chatted with each other, seeing that the Yingge Hotel, the venue of Pai Duì, was about to arrive, and the Yingge Hotel on the South Bund was one of the most fashionable and creative hotels in Shanghai.
The doorman opened the car door for Cheng Xiaoyu, Cheng Xiaoyu got out of the car, the yellow spotlights above his head made him feel a little dazzling, Cheng Xiaoyu squinted his eyes, stood on the side, and Su Yuxi, who was waiting to get out of the car, came up and held his arm.
Su Yuxi carefully carried the long swing of the blue-purple evening dress skirt, stepped on bright silver high heels, and got out of the car elegantly, like the most noble and beautiful princess. But the moment she held Cheng Xiaoyu, she felt that she was not stepping on the vain clouds, but walking on the ground with support.
The butler in the tuxedo accepted Cheng Xiaoyu's invitation. Lead them towards the direct elevator.
The pie is held on the 29th to 31st floors at a restaurant called "Cha". The location chosen by Gu Xuewei is naturally the place where the center of SH City is located. Occupying the top 3 floors of the Singa Hotel, CHARGrillandBar offers the most beautiful views in Shanghai, and is designed by HBA/HirschBedner Associates, a world-renowned hotel interior design firm. The high consumption and membership system here are natural protections that cut off ordinary people, and the best bar terrace on the 30th floor, with a 270-degree panoramic view of the surging Huangpu River, and the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Pujiang River, is destined to be open to only a few people.
The elevator door opened, and Gu Xueren was waiting at the door in a tuxedo, obviously he knew that Su Yuxi was coming.
Looking at Gu Xueren, who is tall and handsome, like the number one male in the movie, Cheng Xiaoyu was upset for no reason, no matter what angle he looks at, Gu Xueren and Su Yuxi are a pair of wall people who are so compatible, fortunately, Su Yuxi is holding his hand now, but these hands will never be held until he is old, thinking of this mileage Xiaoyu began to be stunned.
