The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 397: Disdaining Jiang Man’s Status?

After the fireworks that lasted for over ten minutes, the wedding car slowly drove into Disneyland.

The entire park was decorated in Chen Anna’s favorite style.

Jewel-made decorations were everywhere, and along the road leading to the castle, the lampshades beside the road had been replaced with jewel-shaped ones.

Chen Anna was surrounded by thousands of supporters as she entered the castle.

After the bride’s arrival, following a brief rest, the Chen Family and the Hu Family got busy again.

In the bride’s exclusive European-style mansion, stylists were racing against time to change her look,

because she and the groom were to take wedding photos around various corners of Disneyland.

"Did you call your cousin? When will the wedding dress be delivered?"

While Wu Ming was greeting guests, Mrs. Chen came over, at her wits’ end.

Wu Ming patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Mom, don’t worry, I called Manman, she knows what she’s doing, and she definitely won’t delay Anna wearing the dress for the wedding."

"You two need to take photos, right?" Mrs. Chen furrowed her brows, "Press her a bit more; I’ll go and talk with Anna."

She glanced at Wu Ming and shook her head, feeling that Wu Ming was frivolous and didn’t take the matter of the wedding dress to heart.

He still had the mind to entertain guests. With so many brothers in his family, who couldn’t handle it?

Mrs. Chen was incredibly anxious, left the outdoor lawn, turned, and rushed into the castle straight to the bride’s room.

Inside, the bridesmaids were also very anxious, continually checking the time.

The chief bridesmaid and best friend, Yang Yiyi, couldn’t sit still and paced back and forth in the room.

"Yiyi, stop pacing; you’re making my eyes blur," Chen Anna let the stylist style her hair but was somewhat worried.

According to the schedule, the wedding was to warm up half an hour early.

Plus the time needed for photos, there wasn’t much time left for Jiang Man.

"Anna, call your cousin personally and ask when the wedding dress will be delivered. If not, just wear the spare wedding dress."

The spare wedding dress was also beautiful, but not what Chen Anna wanted.

She felt that this was the only wedding she’d have in her lifetime and definitely wanted to wear a unique, favorite dress.

"Isn’t there more than two hours before the ceremony starts? Worst case, we skip the photos and take them later."

"Your absence won’t do, Mrs. Mayor, Mrs. Jervin, and the Duchess Lai are all waiting to meet you, photographers are specially arranged to take photos. You can’t keep them waiting."

"I know, but I don’t want to wear the alternative dress!" Chen Anna was upset by her mother’s meddling.

She had a lot of faith in Jiang Man, but now she was wavering.

She wasn’t even sure if the wedding dress could be properly cleaned.

"Did you find out who ruined my wedding dress?"

"Yesterday when I checked, it was fine..." Yang Yiyi hurriedly tried to disassociate herself from the blame.

"Now is not the time to investigate the culprit. Let’s settle that after your wedding!" Mrs. Chen was so angry she clenched her teeth.

She looked up at the wall clock, "Wait another five minutes, if no one arrives, then you put on the spare dress and go greet the guests."

With that, she clapped her hands.

Two smartly dressed waitresses immediately entered carrying a heavy wedding dress.

"Fine, fine," Chen Anna had no choice but to compromise.

The grand wedding was not just a ceremony. For both the Chen Family and the Hu Family, it was a full-force promotional event for the family.

A lot is done in the guise of the wedding, much like invisible advertising and networking.

The ladies she was about to meet later were actually maintaining contacts on behalf of the Chen family.

These ladies were all behind-the-scenes financial backers for the Chen family’s commercial empire.

In recent years, the entertainment industry had become increasingly competitive, especially the state of the industry in Harbor City, almost entirely dependent on the older generation.

They had to work on the quality of their film and television productions.

Now movies often had investments of hundreds of millions, needing a favorable business environment from the political sphere and substantial investments from wealthy businessmen.

Additionally, they needed to promote the company’s celebrities, show their faces in front of them, and secure some high-profile endorsements.

"Don’t wait any longer. Get the lady into her wedding dress!"

Mrs. Chen wouldn’t wait even a minute longer, and as soon as the time arrived, she immediately gave the order.

Two waiters holding the wedding dress were surrounded by bridesmaids rushing to help Chen Anna.

"Here it comes! Here it comes!"

Wu Yingfan led the way like a loudspeaker.

"The wedding dress has arrived!"

Chen Anna’s eyes lit up, and she stood to greet it.

She saw Jiang Man and Hu Xianyun walking side by side.

Each one on either side gripping a gift box, its presence magnificent.

Those in the know understood it was the wedding dress, while the uninformed thought they were carrying some cultural relics!

"Is the stain removed?" Chen Anna asked, full of hope.

"It’s cleaned." Jiang Man was succinct, "Hurry and try it on."

"Okay!"

The men discreetly left, while the women helped Chen Anna put on the wedding dress.

Because the wedding dress was long and heavy, it was troublesome to wear.

Eventually, it took about seven or eight people together to get Chen Anna into her dress.

In front of a full-length mirror, a woman in a stunning wedding dress adorned with a silver crown shone with a twinkling light all around her.

The red stain that was originally on the front was now completely invisible, the wedding dress appearing just like it was initially.

It even gave the illusion that the diamonds on it were brighter than before.

"Is it really cleaned? There are hundreds of tiny diamonds, wasn’t that hard to clean?"

Indeed, when they saw the dress stained, their minds went blank, utterly crashing.

The gaps between the tiny diamonds had been stained, and the dress couldn’t be machine washed.

"Manman, how did you manage this?" Chen Anna was delighted beyond expectation, looking at her radiant reflection in the mirror, she could hardly believe it.

"I brushed them one by one," Jiang Man’s tone was nonchalant, "so it took a little longer." freēnovelkiss.com

"Brushed them one by one? There are hundreds of tiny diamonds!"

Others thought she was joking.

Jiang Man didn’t dwell on this matter, and with a lift of her eyebrows, said, "If there’s nothing more for me to do, I’ll go downstairs for some food."

"I’ll join you, I need to meet the guests as well," Chen Anna took the initiative to take Jiang Man’s hand.

As she stepped forward, the servants and bridesmaids followed behind, holding up her long train.

Mrs. Chen saw this and immediately felt uncomfortable.

"We are about to meet some important people, why are you bringing your cousin?"

The implication was clear; Jiang Man wasn’t considered high status enough to greet these distinguished ladies.

"What’s the issue? I might as well introduce Manman to them."

"Bring A-Wen with you," Mrs. Chen hinted with her eyes.

This A-Wen was the starlet pushed forward by Chen Corporation in recent years, proficient in singing and acting, and also possessed a pure Eastern beauty.

Chen Corporation intended to push her towards the Oscars.

"Got it," Chen Anna pursed her lips, then immediately let go of Jiang Man’s hand: "Manman, I’m sorry."

"It’s okay." Jiang Man’s expression was calm, unfazed.

But Chen Anna felt bad, realizing her mother’s snobbery too late. Jiang Man had just helped clean her wedding dress, and she hadn’t even had the chance to thank her before her mother rejected her for not being high status enough.

Her mother was really something, blinded by a lust for status!

Surrounded by people who were calling before and behind her, she knew nothing of the ways of the world.

No, to be precise, she only knew how to deal with people of higher status!
