As you can imagine, once this piece of clothing is worn outside, the number of people asking where to buy it is trendous.
Tang Yue simply took those dozen or so design sketches and sent them to Wei Jiajia to have them produce the clothing.
Maternity wear, being fairly common styles with prices that aren’t exorbitantly high, is best done by Mingyue Clothing.
Mingyue Clothing targets the mid-range market with prices that aren’t expensive but slightly higher than those of ordinary clothing.
While it’s still sumr, they set up a separate production line dedicated to maternity wear.
As a new product, each garnt isn’t made in large quantities, just sold as part of a mix, but unexpectedly, maternity wear is selling well and orders are coming in non-stop.
When Tang Yue heard this news, she couldn’t help but laugh. This might be a case of an unintentional success, but surely she can’t be expected to design maternity wear by herself, right?
They were short of people!
Tang Yue was quite vexed. Peng Yufei and the other two were good, but they were still short-staffed; it would be much better if a few more designers joined them.
When calling back ho, Tang Yue specifically ntioned the recruitnt of designers to Tang Mingli, and also asked him to hire a children’s wear designer if he could find one. After all, one can never have too many good designers.
Tang Mingli took the request seriously. Knowing Tang Yue had a lot on her plate, he earnestly started hunting for designers—and indeed, Tang Mingli found so.
Designer Guan, in his thirties, had a particular fondness for maternity wear, not to ntion kids’ clothes. When he heard Tang Mingli was hiring designers, he decided to give it a shot.
Tang Mingli, being out of his depth, let Peng Yufei and the other two oversee the vetting process.
Peng Yufei, Xin Jiaren, and Sun Qing were still novices themselves, but having learned a fair bit under Tang Yue’s tutelage, the three of them followed their instincts, assessed Designer Guan, found him to be quite good, and advised Tang Mingli to hire him.

In Country F, Tang Yue was also bustling about during the sumr vacation, even busier than when she was in China.
"Miss Tang, Shen Yunfei is looking for you," Wu Xin called from the doorway.
Wu Xin stood at the entrance, barring Shen Yunfei from entering.
Shen Yunfei grumbled about Wu Xin, but didn’t dare to barge in forcibly.
Ahem, since he was not as skilled, even if he did try to force his way in, it wouldn’t work and would just be embarrassing.
"What’s the matter?"
Tang Yue walked out from inside the house, dressed in a simple set of loungewear—loose and comfy, her hair lazily tied in a ponytail. She looked sowhat more relaxed and leisurely than usual.
"Last ti, you called an ambulance for and I haven’t had the chance to thank you," Shen Yunfei said in a jiffy. "I’ve made a dinner reservation; could I have the honor of inviting you to dinner tonight?"
"Qingyang is here, too," Shen Yunfei added.
Tang Yue looked shocked, her disbelief evident as she turned to Shen Yunfei. Lian Qingyang has been too busy with his computer business to touch the ground during the sumr break. He had ti to co to Country F?
Shen Yunfei confird confidently, "Tang Yue, Qingyang is definitely here. Will you do the honor?"
"Okay," Tang Yue nodded. If Lian Qingyang was there, then having a al together wasn’t a big deal. She said, "But you really don’t need to worry about last ti. Whether it was you or soone else, we wouldn’t just walk by without helping in such a situation."
"If you hadn’t found , I might have died there. To be saved by you and only repay you with a al, I’m getting the better deal," Shen Yunfei said nonchalantly, a roguish smile on his face, his peachy eyes brimming with mirth.
If it were not for Lian Qingyang’s visit, Shen Yunfei would never have co to talk about this. Tang Yue’s attitude was obvious, his dropping by, even if just to show gratitude, could be humiliating if Tang Yue kicked him out!
Once Tang Yue agreed, Shen Yunfei estimated the ti and went to the airport to pick up the guest.
"You actually ca to the airport?" Lian Qingyang was stunned.
This ti, if it weren’t for Lian Qingqing ntioning that Lian Qingyang was coming to F country, Shen Yunfei probably wouldn’t have known so coincidentally. One is his cousin, the other his second cousin, but Shen Yunfei’s relationship with Lian Qingqing was just a tad better.
"I’m here to pick you up." Shen Yunfei smiled and said, "Let’s have dinner together tonight, I’ve invited Tang Yue as well."
"Since when are you and Sister Xiao Yue so close?" Lian Qingyang asked suspiciously, "You’re not harboring any inappropriate thoughts, are you?"
"How could I? She’s married, you know , I never touch married won." Shen Yunfei was earnest; he might like won and change girlfriends frequently, but there was a premise – mutual willingness was essential.
He was really not into married won.
"That’s good. If you were eyeing Sister Xiao Yue, brother-in-law would skin you alive." Every ti Lian Qingyang ntioned ng Siyu, he did so with imnse pride. It was about ti, so they went straight to the restaurant, and Lian Qingyang even brought his luggage along.
"By the way, whom did Tang Yue marry?" Shen Yunfei was curious, Tang Yue was very low-profile at school, but she stood out with her looks in a predominantly Western school, and Wu Xin’s presence by her side ant no one could get close to Tang Yue.
"————." Lian Qingyang boasted proudly.
Shen Yunfei curled his lips.
Lian Qingyang couldn’t be bothered to elaborate further, and said, "Out of consideration that we are cousins, just a word of advice – don’t provoke brother-in-law."
Shen Yunfei wanted to ask more, but Lian Qingyang refused to reveal anything. He was waiting for Tang Yue’s arrival and had no interest in Shen Yunfei.
"Sister Xiao Yue, over here."
Lian Qingyang spotted Tang Yue instantly and waved energetically.
"Qingyang, how did you co to F country? When we talked on the phone a few days ago, you didn’t ntion it." Tang Yue was sowhat surprised.
"Hehe."
Lian Qingyang grinned and said, "I wanted to surprise you. Look, what did I bring for you?"
"Pickled ginger and sour Yangi, all your favorites." Lian Qingyang opened the bag and showcased the treats.
Tang Yue was a bit surprised and asked, "Did you go to my mom’s place?"
"Yes, Aunt Tang and Uncle Tang were so welcoming, and Uncle Tang’s dishes are the best." Lian Qingyang couldn’t stop praising the als prepared by Tang Zhengde.
Tang Yue took a piece of pickled ginger, shared so with Wu Xin, and then treasured the rest. The sour and crunchy treat, with tender ginger that almost tasted like radish and had the spicy ginger kick, sweet and sour, was sothing Tang Yue enjoyed imnsely.
Zhang Hualian had made it by hand, which made Tang Yue cherish it even more.
"The dishes my dad cooks are indeed delicious." Tang Yue said with pride.
Shen Yunfei eyed the pickled ginger, longing for a taste, but Tang Yue was too reluctant to share.
Shen Yunfei felt embarrassed to ask, and Lian Qingyang, watching from the side, almost burst into laughter holding it in. Fortunately, the dishes were served, hot and steaming Huaxia cuisine had arrived, and Shen Yunfei’s attention was diverted.
