(Listening, thank you to the book friends 孤独 and 慢跑 for your support)

The plane stopped at Newark Airport in New York. After exiting the VIP passage, Xiaoming directly got into the Lincoln car arranged by Jack.

When they arrived at the Vera Wang store on Fifth Avenue, Charlie and Robert, who had been notified in advance, were already waiting there.

On the day Xiaoming proposed to Michelle, they had taken over the duties of best man.

"Let me introduce you. These two are my friends from China, very close younger siblings." Liu Yunxuan pushed away Charlie, who was about to give him a warm hug, and introduced the Li siblings to the two.

Liu Yunxuan was not used to men hugging, and in the past, he did it for the sake of etiquette. Now that he was familiar with Charlie and Robert, there was no need to be so formal.

Charlie fooled around with Liu Yunxuan for a while before introducing himself to the Li siblings. Compared to Charlie, Robert was much more composed and had already finished his introductions.

"Alright, everyone has met. Don't block the entrance. Let's go inside and take a look." Liu Yunxuan said, leading the way into the store.

The store's interior gave a feeling of simplicity and luxury. On the way, Liu Yunxuan had listened to Michelle introduce Vera Wang's wedding dresses. Vera Wang, a famous Chinese-American designer, named her brand after herself. From the beginning, she pursued a high-end and luxurious style, combining modernity and elegance, which somewhat aligned with Liu Yunxuan's development philosophy.

Li Xinyue reported her name to the store attendant who came to serve them, saying that she had made an appointment with Vera Wang and asked for assistance.

"Yes, Miss Li, we have received your notification. The boss is waiting for you in the studio," the attendant said politely.

Led by the attendant, they went to the second-floor studio. It wasn't very large, and there were some half-finished dresses on the plastic mannequins around the room.

Wang Weiwei was bent over, drawing something on a piece of paper. Hearing the sound, she looked up at everyone.

"Aunty, it's been almost a year since we last met," Li Xinyue walked over quickly, holding Wang Weiwei's arm.

"You, you're still as impulsive as ever. You didn't even tell me you needed a wedding dress. Luckily I'm here today, or what would you have done?" Wang Weiwei said with a scolding tone, but it was clear she was fond of Li Xinyue.

"Aunty, I'm sorry for the trouble." Li Xinyu also came forward to greet her.

"If it weren't for the wedding dress, you two probably wouldn't have come to see me. I only found out you were here two days ago when I talked to Daniel." Wang Weiwei didn't give Li Xinyu a good face.

"Aunty, you must know that Xinyue is going to study in the U.S. She will have plenty of time. I planned to visit you before we left," Li Xinyu explained quickly.

Liu Yunxuan, who was listening, was a bit surprised. This relationship was solid.

"Alright, introduce your friends. I need to know who the groom is if I'm going to make the wedding dress," Wang Weiwei said, looking at Liu Yunxuan.

Among the group, besides Li Xinyue, Michelle was the only other woman, so she guessed the other Chinese person might be the groom.

"This is the groom, Liu Yunxuan," Li Xinyue pointed to Liu Yunxuan, "the owner of a 5,000-acre ranch in Texas."

Then she pointed to Michelle, "This beautiful Michelle is the bride."

Liu Yunxuan and Michelle hurriedly came forward to greet her.

"We'll call you Aunty too. We're really sorry for the trouble," Liu Yunxuan said apologetically.

"It's no problem. I'll design the wedding dresses for you two. The best man and maid of honor can choose their outfits from the store. Otherwise, we might not have enough time," Wang Weiwei said, taking out a measuring tape to measure Liu Yunxuan and Michelle.

She was quite curious about Liu Yunxuan, as owning such a large ranch suggested a good family background.

Moreover, seeing the Li siblings' behavior, they must have a good relationship to call her at the last minute for the wedding. She knew the Li family's influence in China.

Michelle was excited. Only top celebrities and people with social status could have Wang Weiwei personally design and measure their wedding dresses. She never thought she would have this opportunity.

Wang Weiwei measured very carefully, and it took over an hour to measure both of them.

"When is your wedding date? Where will it be held? Outdoor or indoor?" Wang Weiwei asked after measuring.

"We plan to have the wedding in April next year at my ranch in Texas," Liu Yunxuan answered honestly.

Wang Weiwei wrote something in her notebook and then asked, "Do you have any specific requirements for the wedding dresses?"

"No, we trust your design," Michelle shook her head and answered quickly.

"OK, there's plenty of time by April next year. Leave your contact information here, and we'll let you try on the dresses when they're ready. If there are any issues, I'll make adjustments," Wang Weiwei said, noticing Michelle's nervousness and smiling.

"Thank you so much for the trouble," Michelle said.

"It's no problem. Otherwise, Xinyue would pester me to death. I might not be able to attend your wedding, but these two wedding dresses will be your wedding gift," Wang Weiwei said, looking at Li Xinyue and smiling.

Hearing this, Liu Yunxuan felt the favor was too big and wanted to decline.

But seeing Li Xinyu giving him signals and considering the relationship between the Li family and Wang Weiwei, he accepted it.

"Aunty, thank you so much. I'm sorry for taking up your time and causing you trouble. Here is a vegetable delivery card from Walmart. The vegetables are grown on our ranch. You can try them," Liu Yunxuan said, taking out a card from his pocket and handing it to Wang Weiwei.

Wang Weiwei took the card and found it quite interesting. It was a green card with "Delivery Card" written in the middle at the top, and a line of small text indicating it was valid at all Walmart stores.

What was interesting was the three cartoon animal patterns on the card: a turtle, a deer, and a red horse.

When Wang Weiwei looked further, she saw the USDA logo in the bottom right corner, followed by the name of the ranch and the Walmart logo.

Wang Weiwei knew what USDA represented. Although she didn't need to spend money on organic vegetables, she could feel Liu Yunxuan's sincerity through the card.

Sending health was better than any other gift.

Actually, this card was designed after signing the agreement with Walmart. Liu Yunxuan thought that if he had some close friends, it would be troublesome to send vegetables from the ranch, but with Walmart stores all over the U.S., these cards would be convenient.

Now, both Robert and Charlie had one. There was no limit on the amount, and the cost would be deducted from Liu Yunxuan's account. When negotiating with Walmart, Liu Yunxuan stated that these cards were for close friends and family, so Walmart didn't worry about the vegetable consumption.

"I didn't expect the latest USDA-certified ranch to be yours, Yunxuan. You are truly young and talented," Wang Weiwei praised.

"You're too kind. Compared to you, my achievements are nothing," Liu Yunxuan said humbly.

It was true. He had only grown some vegetables, while she had designed the wedding dress for the daughter of former President Clinton, as Michelle had told him on the plane.

"Alright, I know you young people like to have fun. I won't keep you. When you have all the best man and maid of honor, come back with this card to try on the dresses," Wang Weiwei said, taking out a VIP card from the drawer of the design table.

"Xinyue, call me often. Come to see me when you have free time at school," Wang Weiwei added, looking at Li Xinyue.

Li Xinyue nodded obediently and stuck out her tongue when she turned around.

Liu Yunxuan didn't refuse anymore. Since he had accepted the wedding dresses, refusing the card would seem pretentious.

After saying goodbye to Wang Weiwei, they left. On the way out, they invited her to visit his ranch when she had free time.

"Brother Yunxuan, let's explore New York tonight," Li Xinyu suggested as they walked out of the store.

"Sure, we have nothing else to do. Let's enjoy New York tonight," Liu Yunxuan agreed.

He also wanted to explore. Last time, he was too tired and went straight to sleep in the hotel. The next day, he rushed to Palm Springs. This time, with Michelle by his side, it would be nice to explore.
