The Eye-Catching An Xiaowan
Inside the makeup room.
A row of five costumes was pushed into the room.
An Xiaowan looked up and was amazed for a moment.
These five sets of clothes were the most expensive and dazzling costumes for the show. The problem was that they consisted of either an extremely heavy pair of large wings or metal attachments mounted with jewels.
“The weight…” She looked at the label beside the clothes and flinched.
“These are by the orders of Young Master Huo.” Assistant Luo still had a friendly smile on his face. “All the best in taking everyone’s breath away.”

Taking breath away? Instead, he was deliberately making things difficult for her.
But she was fine with this. The fact that he was doing all this intentionally also meant that she had caught Huo Shen’s attraction!
An Xiaowan smiled bitterly.
As a model, other than maintaining a good body shape and practicing how to walk on a runway, it was also crucial to keep herself fit and build up her stamina.
The costumes worn by the models on the catwalk may seem cool and dazzling, but they often weighed a lot. It would not even be possible for a typical woman to carry them on their body.
Not to mention, the balancing of weight while walking on the catwalk.
An Xiaowan had left the modeling industry for slightly more than a year now.
A year was neither too long nor too short.
But it was still enough for her stamina to depreciate.
Assistant Luo asked profoundly, “Is there any problem?”
A typical model would not be able to last through the ordeal of donning five such heavy weighted costumes and walking on the catwalk. It was clear that Huo Shen was making things difficult for her. He was probably waiting for her to surrender and apologize to him.
An Xiaowan looked away and smiled. “There is no problem.”
To die, or to live?
She chose to live!
She chose to live radiantly!

Everyone at the show venue was busy.
In the VIP seating area, An Xue and Huo Shen were seated at the two seats with the best view, yet the expressions on their faces were poles apart.
Huo Shen was seated with his legs crossed, in a calm and composed manner.
An Xue’s face was as ashen as someone who had been force-fed rocks.
Instead of being replaced, An Xiaowan got a chance to be the first and last model walking in the show. How could An Xue not be furious!
The surrounding lights suddenly dimmed, indicating the commencement of the show.
Background music started.
The stage was decorated with fragments of diamonds, covering it with awe-inspiring radiance. Amidst the background music, a tall and slender figure slowly made an entrance onto the runway.
It was An Xiaowan.
Huo Shen’s dark and narrow eyes stopped gazing lazily and immediately focused on her.
Her long and straight legs were a breathtaking scene for the spectators. She was wearing a set of undergarments, embedded full of rubies. A pair of wings extended from behind her, looking like an icy cold glacier encompassed in flames. It was an affair of hot flames and freezing ice, coming together to form a strange beauty!
Her face glowing with a subtle but elegant smile, as her every step in those high heels created an extraordinary grandeur. Her steps light and graceful.
“What a perfect cross-step!” Someone gasped from behind An Xue.
On the stage, An Xiaowan moved gracefully as her torso was steady, while her legs had perfected the use of extremely difficult cross-steps in an exquisite manner.
In recent years, the modeling industry had changed drastically and the glorious days of the fashion industry were long gone. In the current scenario, the old ones have been replaced by models who are professional moneymakers or celebrity models on the Internet. No matter whether it’s An Xue or other models, the extremely high-level cross-steps have long been forgotten due to the complexity in pulling it off on a catwalk.
Not to mention, to be able to walk in cross-steps with such flawlessness.
Yet An Xiaowan did it!
Huo Shen’s cold eyes, narrowing slightly.
An Xue gritted her teeth, annoyed at the situation, as her palms clenched into tight fists beside her, digging her nails into her soft skin.
A show, for 40 minutes.
An Xiaowan had to walk five times in total during the entire show. The heavy costumes, coupled with continuous changing of clothes in a haste left her breathless. By the third set of costumes, she was already drenched in sweat.
An Xiaowan was covered in a thin layer of sweat, sparkling her smooth skin and displaying a distinctive kind of beauty.
By the time she changed into her fourth set of costumes, she could no longer hide the tiredness in her eyes.
Huo Shen looked at her fatigued eyes and frowned.
Looking at Huo Shen’s expression, Assistant Luo walked over and asked, “President, should we change to an even heavier pair of wings for Ms. An?”
Huo Shen ordered coldly. “If she can no longer continue, let the other models take over her.” He paused for a moment and grunted coldly, “She might ruin my show.”
