The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof

Chapter 51: Chapter 51: The Charm of Antiquity_1

After finally reaching the E-Fashion Building, Qiao Xiaren took off her headphones, handed a hundred yuan bill to the driver, and got out of the car.

The E-Fashion Building was located in the prime area, a 35-story skyscraper with each department clearly demarcated and in perfect order. The grand atmosphere was accentuated by sharp-dressed men and white-collar beauties coming and going in professional attire.

The photoshoot location was in the southwest position. When Qiao Xiaren arrived, the photographer team and a few managers were discussing something.

The photo studio was an oasis of its own. Beautifully folding carved screens obscured half the view, behind which lay an intricately patterned ancient zither. The wisps of fragrant incense smoke gently rose.

A pendant was barely falling onto the ancient zither, inviting wanderings of a beautiful scene of a captivating beauty playing the zither with a fan in hand.

This was one of the scenes they were shooting today.

Abby was still communicating with the chief photographer, Zhuang Xiao. When she saw someone walk in, she glanced up without thinking. Upon recognizing her, she was once again utterly stunned by Qiao Xiaren in person.

“Are, are you Miss Qiao?” Abby looked excited and stared at the person in front of her. As if afraid to offend the beauty before her, she was so nervous she hardly knew where to put her hands.

“Hello, I’m Qiao Xiaren.” Xiaren gave a slight smile and extended her right hand. Perhaps because of her young age, her face was full of the visual sensation of collagen, and her porcelain-white complexion also carried a hint of naivety, pure and flawless.

Seeing the hand extended to her, Abby seemed somewhat flustered.

“Hello, Goddess! I finally see you in person! My name is Abby, I’m the editor of E-fashion.” Abby’s eyes shone like light bulbs, even her breathing became unsteady due to excitement, she kept repeating, “So perfect, so perfect… this face is a work of art.”

As a photographer, she had always been particularly keen on capturing beauty. Having been in the entertainment circle for so long, this was the first time she had seen a real-life muse. Not putting up her picture for worship would be a waste!

“Thank you.” The deep black of her eyes was like a stream under the sun, which once again sent Abby into a new wave of amazement.

“Abby, aren’t you going to quickly introduce today’s shoot to Miss Qiao,” Amy reminded Abby, who was losing her composure, somewhat helplessly.

“Ah, I almost got carried away! Goddess, follow me.” Abby smacked her own forehead, leading Qiao Xiaren to the front of the camera.

It must be said, E-fashion was a very professional and responsible leading magazine brand. The props inside were genuinely antique.

Just looking at the intricately carved step bed, the finely engraved design made it look elegant and grand. The richness of the antique style gave people a sense of being in the scene.

“This bed is nice.” Xiaren gave a slight smile at the corner of her lips, her hand lightly touching the surface of the bed, “The sandalwood is top-grade material, the carving is incredibly intricate, utterly different from ordinary beds. It’s not only made of robust material and stands tall, but the legs, denticle, bedposts, rails, and headboard are all carved with cloud and dragon patterns. The bed canopy has a nearly 40-centimeter-high purple sandalwood cloud dragon pattern viśheṣakuṇḍalas, the craftsmanship is exceedingly complicated and exquisite. Altogether, it is delicate, imposing and gives a sense of solemn magnificence.”

The person in charge was somewhat surprised: “Miss Qiao indeed has a good eye, this is an antique bed reproduced by a modern master, it can nearly pass off as the real thing.”

“Did you think my Goddess would be shallow? Of course, she is knowledgeable and beautiful!” Abby moved in, grinning.
