Young girls were different from vulgar tycoons who didn't pay the slightest attention to fashion. Young girls were at the time of their prime and they should wear the very best clothing! After all, their youth only lasted so long; if they didn't dress nicely now, what other time would they get to dress up?

That was a viewpoint Zhong Jiangnan had always strongly believed in.

After he saw that Liu Man's clothing were all cheap and bought from low-quality Taobao stores, Zhong Jiangnan felt pained because the cheap clothing discounted Liu Man's beauty!

But this could also prove that Liu Man was indeed struggling finically, which would explain why she wanted to make money as a cyber star. Being a cyber star was not exactly the most high-tiered profession, but it did make quick money.

The truth showed, the older one gets, one's perceptiveness and experience grew as well. Zhong Jiangnan was right; after Liu Man moved out of her original house, she did not bring the clothes of the former owner with her. So all her latest clothes were bought on Taobao.

Besides, she basically had no money left in her pocket at this time. Her most recent income had been spent on the makeover of the new warehouse. The weather was hot and she had to pay the workers' cooling fee. Last week, she transferred the remaining 50,000 RMB to Lawyer Sun's account and finally paid off her debt. Too much spendings and expenses required in every aspect of her life, and she couldn't save any money. She didn't have any time to go shopping and buy her clothes like other girls, and online shopping was the money-saving and time-saving alternative.

However, Zhong Jiangnan did not show his disgust for the cheap clothing. He patiently led Liu Man on a tour in his workshop.

The large space on the first floor of the villa had no internal walls. There was a fairly large table in the center. The tabletop was very clean, and the design drafts were placed in their respective folders based on their different types, clear at first glance.

Behind the table was a row of wooden shelves standing upright against the wall. The wooden shelves were covered with a dazzling array of fabrics. There were several plastic dummy by the left side of the table, which were covered with half-finished clothes. On the other side, there was a row of hangers with all kinds of clothes on them.

Zhong Jiangnan pointed at the black and red hanfu on a plastic dummy and said to Liu Man, "This is the fourth edition of 'Autumn Moon over the Han Palace', and it is very close to the sample clothes I am making. I only had to adjust the color and neckline. The actual color requires the red part of the clothing to be slightly darker, which will make it the deep jujube color."

Among all the hanfus in the studio, this hanfu was, indeed, the most gorgeous and luxurious one; in Liu Man's perception, these two colors were the colors worn by the queen.

Liu Man walked closer and saw that dragons and royal birds were embroidered with gold threads on the placket and cuffs. She whispered to herself, "It really is the queen's Hui Yi, and it really is the true color of the 'Han Palace'."

TL's Note: Hui Yi = an ancient kind of traditional Chinese coat.

Zhong Jiangnan heard her and was surprised that Liu Man actually knew about Hui Yi. This kind of technical term was unknown to people who had not studied the culture of the the Han Dynasty in depth.

He felt even more fond of Liu Man. This was the case with artists. Whether it was music or clothing, they had worked hard to create the resulting pieces. So they always hoped to meet people who understand their inspiration and intentions. Even just a few words could make them feel joyful and surprised.
