Chapter 271 - 102: Clothing Brand Qingyan LAVUE (Part 2)

Sheng Mingyue tapped away on her phone before finally turning off the screen. "No problem."

With everything settled, the two of them left the study one after the other.

Outside the study, Shen Yanzhi was already waiting with a glass of water.

Sheng Mingyue nodded at Shen Yanzhi, then left without looking back.

Only then did Shen Yanzhi hand the glass of water to Jiang Li, asking in a low voice, "What were you and Xiao Sheng talking about?"

Jiang Li gulped down several mouthfuls of water, nearly finishing the glass, before handing it back to Shen Yanzhi. She shrugged. "Nothing much. Just some company business."

Jiang Li had told him that Sheng Mingyue wasn’t just her caregiver, but also her executive secretary.

So Shen Yanzhi wasn’t at all surprised by what she said.

’It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell Shen Yanzhi about her plan to acquire a company; she just didn’t think it was necessary.’

With the idea of designing maternity wear on her mind, Jiang Li let Shen Yanzhi know and returned to the office.

She stayed in there for more than two hours, producing around ten design sketches. Jiang Li was very satisfied.

She gave the sketches to Sheng Mingyue, telling her to find someone to make prototypes and, while she was at it, to register the copyright for the designs.

’After all, one can’t be too careful. What if the clothes took off and people started making knockoffs?’

’Registering the copyright is the safest bet.’

’Want to sell my clothes? Fine. Pay up first.’

Sheng Mingyue was very efficient, securing the copyrights that very day.

Half a month passed, and more than a dozen outfits were all delivered to the villa.

Jiang Li had been quite satisfied when she was sketching the designs.

But now, seeing the actual garments, she absolutely adored them.

’I really am a little genius.’

She immediately had one of the outfits washed and dried, then picked one out.

The inner layer was a loose, blue, floral-print slip dress, and the outer layer was an asymmetrical, breathable batwing top. It perfectly concealed her belly—you couldn’t even tell she was pregnant.

’My fans have been bugging me to stream, and now I’m thinking of opening a clothing shop. This is the perfect chance to see if there’s an audience for it.’

She set up her phone off to the side, tapped the "Go Live" button, and waved at the screen. "Hellooo, darlings! Good morning, everyone~"

[Sister Jiang, where did you buy the outfit you’re wearing? Is there a link?]

[We haven’t seen Sister Jiang in a while, how come you look even more beautiful?]

[AHHHH, MOM, THE STREAMER YOU STAN IS FINALLY LIVE!!!]

The moment she went live, viewers started flooding in.

Jiang Li read the comments and replied, "There’s no link for this outfit, sorry! I actually designed it myself and had it custom-made."

"As for why you think I look more beautiful, that’s because I do my skincare every day. If it didn’t have any effect, all that effort would be for nothing, right?"

"I’ve just been really busy these past six months, but I have been reading your comments whenever I get the chance. I just haven’t had time to reply."

Seeing so many people in the chat asking about her outfit, Jiang Li smiled. "Alright, how about this? I just received over a dozen new outfits today, so I’ll try them all on for you. If you guys like them, I’ll do a giveaway, and the winners will each get one."

There were eighteen outfits in total; besides dresses, there were also matching sets.

Sometimes, dresses just aren’t as practical as pants.

Jiang Li tried on every single outfit, one after another. Eventually, a few sharp-eyed viewers noticed that her belly seemed a little rounded and started asking if she was pregnant.

Jiang Li looked down and gently rubbed her belly, replying without a hint of hesitation, "That’s right, I’m pregnant. Eight months along."

Not wanting the focus to remain on her pregnancy, Jiang Li looked up at the camera. "Okay, I’ve tried on all eighteen outfits! Let’s start the giveaway for the first one. I’m about to launch a red packet draw. Whoever wins gets this outfit."

Realizing it would be tricky to send the red packets from the phone she was using to stream, she turned and held her hand out to Shen Yanzhi, who promptly handed over his own phone.

She sent out a red packet with a value of 1000.

Once the red packet was fully claimed, she took a screenshot of the page for verification later.

When sending the second red packet, Jiang Li worried that people who had already won a share would try to grab another, so she quickly said, "To the darlings who already got a packet, please give others a chance! Next up is the draw for the second outfit."

Just like that, she sent 18 red packets in a row, spending over ten thousand yuan in a flash.

By the time all the red packets had been sent, Jiang Li’s hand felt like it wasn’t even hers anymore.

She stretched languidly, returned the phone to Shen Yanzhi, and then looked back at her camera. "To all the lucky winners, please message me your address, phone number, name, plus your height, weight, and body measurements. Once they’re all made, I’ll ship them out together."
