I put on the skirt that Aviana gave me and walked out of the inner room. Because the skirt was too short and I didn't wear safety pants inside, I felt very insecure.
"Why are you so slow?" Aviana came over.
Seeing her coming over, I subconsciously pulled the skirt down. "It's better not to wear it, right? Such a short skirt doesn’t have safety pants, it doesn't feel very good."
Aviana walked around me and praised, "It's not that short. Look at all the little girls on the street now. All of them are wearing dresses that have just covered their butts. You are quite beautiful. Besides, this dress is pretty good-looking on you. You are totally different from the dress you wore just now. When you wear makeup, you will definitely look better."
As soon as she finished speaking, Aviana pulled me to sit in front of the mirror and began to put makeup on my face and so on. I quickly turned around to stop her. "Miss Zeng, do you have safety pants here?"
"This is a hotel, not a home. The dress was left by me when I tested the clothes yesterday. How could there be safety pants?" Aviana said with a smile.
After listening to her words, I shook my head and stood up from the chair. "Then I'd better take off my skirt, or I'll be fine after walking outside."
"Ah, don't be like this." Aviana comforted me. "There are so many people here. Who has time to stare at the bottom of your skirt? Besides, can't you be more careful?"
Despite what she said, I was still worried.
"But..."
"Don't say 'but'. Don’t you think that there are all kinds of people at this gathering? You're dressed like a yellow-faced woman and you're in front of Harrison. When others see you, they'll definitely laugh at you behind your back. Aren't you worried at all?"
Aviana put me on the stool, put her hands on my shoulders, and looked at me in the mirror.
From the moment I learned that I was going to attend the party, I began to feel uneasy in my home clothes. After listening to Aviana's words, my uneasiness was completely confirmed, and I also completely listened to what Aviana said.
Aviana did it for the good of Harrison and me. He didn't want me to lose face or be laughed at by Harrison. In short, it was all because of Harrison. But no matter why Aviana helped me, as long as it was for Harrison's good, I wouldn't refuse.
I sat on the chair obediently and looked at me, who was dressed up by Aviana in the mirror.
"When the party is over, I will wash my skirt clean and return it to you." Before leaving, I said to Aviana.
Aviana replied indifferently, "I have a lot of dresses like this, and I haven't worn them once. Don't take it to heart."
Hearing this, I had a different feeling in my heart, so I didn't say anything more. Anyway, when the party was over, I would send it to the convenience store and then give it back to her. Whether there were too many dresses or not, I must do what I had to do.
When I went downstairs, I followed behind Aviana. Because I didn't have a good look at the road when I went upstairs, people kept greeting Aviana on the road. Most of them were men. Every time I went upstairs, I was worried that the skirt would be too short.
Aviana didn't stop until she took me to the hotel lobby. She pointed to Harrison over there and said, "See? The people around him are all local officials and company executives. They are all helpful to her business. If you dress like what you did just now..."
Aviana didn’t finish her words, but I knew what she meant. "Thank you. If I hadn't met you today, I really wouldn't know what to do."
"It doesn't matter. The relationship between me and Harrison is not ordinary." Aviana said with a smile.
