When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 817: The College Entrance Exam Tomorrow
During the meal, amidst their conversation, the perceptive Chase Fletcher sensed that Rachel Sherman was feeling a bit down. It wasnβt related to Jasmine Quinn; she seemed to have something else on her mind. π§π³π¦β―ππ¦π·π―ππ£π¦π.πΈπ°π
"Rachel, are you adjusting well to the job?" he asked with concern.
Rachel looked up and smiled, "Itβs going well. Ben is very attentive and has made a detailed study plan for me." She didnβt want him to worry; he was really too busy.
"If you donβt understand something, you can ask him or me."
"Okay, okay."
"Do you like this braised fish?" Chase Fletcher said to her, "Itβs a specialty dish in our cafeteria."
"Itβs delicious," she commented.
"Our cafeteria isnβt divided by rank; itβs just one cafeteria where everyone is treated equally," he said. "I mostly eat at the cafeteria too."
He is still a very down-to-earth CEO.
Chase Fletcher only thought she was feeling a bit overwhelmed due to her first day at work, so she seemed a bit tired and worn out.
He didnβt know that there were already unkind rumors circulating about Rachel Sherman in the company.
And sometimes, this kind of online trolling can really crush a person.
Time flew by, and tomorrow was the day Milo Turner would take his college entrance exams, a very important day.
"Sis, do these clothes of Adrian fit me?" Milo Turner asked, feeling rather pleased as he admired himself.
Yes, he had asked Adrian Lancaster for the set of clothes he wore the most during his senior year of high school. They were obviously a bit big on him because he wasnβt as tall as his brother-in-law.
"They donβt fit. Canβt you see itβs too long?" Faye Turner turned his shoulders to face the mirror, "Take a look."
Milo Turner was initially very happy, but after seriously examining himself, he felt a bit dejected. Wouldnβt his classmates laugh at him?
The shoes were too large, the pant legs were too long, and the clothes were way too big.
The whole thing was quite comical!
Nearby, Adrian Lancaster didnβt want to dampen his spirits, so he patted his shoulder with a smile, "Itβs okay, let your sister alter them for you. Sheβs a designer; itβs a piece of cake for her."
Reminded by his brother-in-law, Miloβs eyes immediately lit up, and he eagerly grabbed his sisterβs arm, "Sis! Can you? Help me alter them?"
"Your brother-in-law already said so; how could I not?" Faye Turner doted on him, "Take them off. Iβll help you adjust them."
"Thank you, Sister!" He quickly dashed into the bedroom.
Faye and Adrian Lancaster exchanged a smile. He wrapped an arm around her shoulder, "I said Iβd buy him a set, but he insisted on wearing mine."
"He believes in exam blessings, I get his mindset," Faye thought youth was wonderful. Reflecting on her own college entrance exam years, it felt both so near and so far away.
Milo Turner packed the clothes into a bag and handed them to his sister as she and Adrian said goodbye to Teacher Gable.
"Mom, Iβll drop them off later."
"Okay, thank you."
Adrian Lancaster left with Faye, and after making the alterations at home, they delivered the clothes and stayed for dinner.
"Faye, come help Mom take a look." Chloe Gable brought out three cheongsams, her good mood evident, "Which one do you think I should wear tomorrow to send him off for the exams?"
All three were in modern Chinese improved style, each with a different color and slightly different design. Cheongsams are meaningful; on the day of the college entrance exams, many mothers wear cheongsams.
The symbolism is to rise victoriously.
Faye Turner took them from her mother, smiling as she carefully admired them. Her fondest memory of cheongsams was of those elegant women in the Republic of China era.
The simple patterns, gentle bag sleeves, and vintage handmade buttons made each one very beautiful.
"Mom, how about wearing this one with the diagonal collar?" Faye picked one, "The bamboo pattern has a good meaning too, symbolizing steady progress."
