Courtyard House: Wudang Disciple Sweeps Through the Compound

At this moment, Chen Xueru, dressed in an exquisitely tailored cheongsam and with a graceful figure, had just seen off several customers who had finished selecting fabrics.

She turned around, and her gaze swept across the room, where she saw Chen Wenqi, who had parked his bicycle and was about to enter the store.

Chen Xueru's eyes lit up instantly, and she was secretly amazed.

Unexpectedly, in just one month, Chen Wenqi, this little brother, has grown even more handsome and his temperament has become even more outstanding.

She thought to herself that this boy was probably only about fifteen years old. In a few years, when he grew up, she wondered how many girls he would charm.

Unfortunately, I am already 23 years old and have had a failed marriage and a divorce.

If I had been born a few years later and was around his age, I would have pursued him no matter what, even if it meant throwing myself at him.

Although Chen Wenqi is only fourteen or fifteen years old, he is already 176 centimeters tall, far exceeding the height of boys his age.

His features were handsome and elegant, his figure was tall and slender, and his lines were smooth and beautiful.

In addition, the confident and composed demeanor emanating from his face is like a deadly poison to the opposite sex, possessing an irresistible and powerful attraction.

If it weren't for the youthful innocence and naivety still lingering on his face, people would easily overlook his real age and mistake him for an adult man.

"Little Wenqi is here."

Chen Xueru quickly raised her hand to straighten the hem of her cheongsam, a warm smile blooming on her face, and strode towards the shop entrance to greet them.

"We agreed to pick up the clothes on the 5th, but you've postponed it to the 10th."

"I was thinking a few days ago that if you don't come to pick it up soon, I'll have to try sending the clothes to you."

"But I don't know your exact address, and I'm afraid of delivering it to the wrong place, so I haven't dared to act rashly."

"I've been quite busy with things at home and in the secret realm these past few days, and I completely forgot about picking up my clothes. I'm really sorry."

With a hint of apology on his face, Chen Wenqi explained to Chen Xueru.

"Hehe, I never expected that such a little kid like you would have so many things to do."

Chen Xueru covered her mouth and chuckled softly, speaking in a teasing tone.

Then, she naturally reached out and took Chen Wenqi's hand, smiling as she said, "Come in with me, the clothes you ordered have been prepared for you and are just waiting for you to come and pick them up."

Chen Wenqi felt the touch of Chen Xueru's soft, warm hand, and his cheeks flushed slightly. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

To be honest, Chen Xueru is indeed very beautiful, exuding the unique charm and allure of a mature woman.

This charm was indeed quite attractive to Chen Wenqi, who was in his adolescence.

However, Chen Wenqi always kept Hua Youlin, whom he had met by chance that day, in his heart, and had no other feelings for Chen Xueru.

Therefore, he subconsciously and gently pulled his hand back from Chen Xueru's hand.

Seeing Chen Wenqi's slightly shy gesture, Chen Xueru smiled and thought to herself, "This little guy is quite easily embarrassed, and he looks really cute."

She immediately turned around, walked quickly to the shelves in the back room, took out several sets of clothes that had already been sewn, and gently placed them on the table in the center of the store.

"Your custom-made clothes are all here. Please check the workmanship and fabric carefully."

Chen Xueru looked at Chen Wenqi and said softly, "If there's anything that doesn't fit, or if you're not satisfied with the workmanship, just bring it back to me, and I'll personally make alterations for you."

"By the way, why don't you try it on now? That way you can see more clearly whether it fits or not."

As she spoke, she picked up the top coat and was about to hand it to Chen Wenqi.

"Well... never mind, I'll try it on when I get back."

Chen Wenqi waved his hand somewhat awkwardly and said.

"Just try it on here, what's there to be shy about? How old are you?"

Chen Xueru said with a hint of teasing, as she picked up the coat and reached out to help Chen Wenqi put it on.

"No need to trouble you, I can do it myself."

Chen Wenqi quickly took the coat from Chen Xueru and put it on in no time.

Chen Xueru quickly stepped forward and carefully adjusted Chen Wenqi's collar and cuffs, trying to make the clothes fit his body better.

Looking at Chen Wenqi wearing the clothes she had sewn herself, she couldn't help but marvel.

This little brother is a natural clothes hanger; no matter what style of clothes he wears, he always looks exceptionally smart and upright.

For a moment, she was so engrossed in watching that her gaze lingered on Chen Wenqi for a long time.

It was only because Chen Wenqi had cultivated the Pure Yang Limitless Skill to the ninth level that the awe-inspiring masculine aura emanating from him was like a strong, mellow liquor to a mature woman like Chen Xueru, making her intoxicated and unable to extricate herself.

Chen Wenqi keenly noticed that Chen Xueru's expression was a little strange, and her eyes were staring straight at him. He quickly pulled himself out of his thoughts and started to straighten his clothes, trying to break the awkwardness.

Chen Xueru suddenly came to her senses and realized that her behavior just now was somewhat inappropriate, and a faint blush instantly appeared on her pretty face.

"Yes, the size is just right, it fits perfectly, it's like it was tailor-made for you."

Chen Xueru quickly looked away and smiled as she spoke, trying to cover up her earlier embarrassment.

"Xue Ru, who is this?"

Just then, a slightly gloomy male voice suddenly came from the shop entrance.

A man in his thirties, dressed well and looking respectable, walked in with a displeased expression and a questioning tone.

When Chen Xueru saw the person walk in, her smiling face immediately darkened, and she said irritably, "Fan Dehai, what are you yelling about here? You startled me!"

"And another thing, you think you can just call me 'Xue Ru' like that? Behave yourself and call me Manager Chen!"

Upon hearing this name, Chen Wenqi turned his gaze to the man who had walked in and immediately understood.

It turns out that the guy in front of me is Fan Dehai. In the original story, he originally wanted to seduce Xu Huizhen, but failed.

Later, he turned to pursuing Chen Xueru. After successfully marrying her, he meticulously planned to embezzle all of Chen Xueru's hard-earned assets and abscond with the money. He was a complete scumbag with a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Fan Dehai had always coveted the still charming Chen Xueru and had been trying to pursue her.

Now, seeing a handsome and charming young man suddenly appear in Chen Xueru's shop, and the two interacting quite intimately, his anger instantly shifted to Chen Wenqi.

But then he thought again that now was not the time to break ties with Chen Xueru, so he suppressed his anger and said in a serious tone, "As the manager of this silk shop, you should be mindful of your reputation and not let people gossip behind your back."

What impact should I be aware of?

Chen Xueru retorted without hesitation, "This is my adopted brother. He's here to pick up some custom-made clothes. What business is it of yours? Who gives you the right to tell me what to do?"

"Sister Xue Ru, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now."

Chen Wenqi noticed the tense atmosphere between the two and spoke up, intending to take the opportunity to leave.

"What's the rush, little brother?"

Chen Xueru quickly tried to persuade her to stay, saying, "I just received a few new styles of clothes, all of which are the most popular styles this year. Could you help me try on a few more outfits so I can see how they look?"

It would be a real shame not to take this opportunity to let Chen Wenqi, such a perfect clothes hanger, try on a few more new outfits and showcase the store's latest styles.

And for some reason, she just wanted to spend more time with this sunny and handsome young man, even if it was just to say a few words.

This scene, witnessed by Fan Dehai, fueled his jealousy and made his blood boil.

He felt that this pretty boy dared to be so intimate with Chen Xueru right in front of him; it was as if he was trying to steal Chen Xueru from him, and he was simply asking for trouble.

Thinking of this, Fan Dehai could no longer suppress his anger. He snorted coldly, turned around and left in a huff without even saying goodbye.

Chen Xueru completely ignored Fan Dehai's ugly expression and pulled Chen Wenqi to try on the new clothes in the store. These were all the latest styles that had just been made.

Sure enough, these meticulously designed clothes, when worn by Chen Wenqi, instantly accentuated the crispness and beauty of the garments, making Chen Wenqi's temperament even more outstanding and extraordinary.

"Yes, this outfit suits you very well; it makes you look exceptionally smart and sharp."

"This set is also very nice, Wenqi. I'm giving you all these outfits as payment for helping me try them on," Chen Xueru said to him with a smile.

"Don't do that, Sister Xue Ru. These clothes look quite valuable. You should keep them and sell them to the customers in the store," Chen Wenqi quickly waved his hand and refused.

"What? Do you look down on your sister's handiwork, or do you think your sister can't afford these clothes?" Chen Xueru deliberately pretended to be a little angry. "Since you called me 'sister,' I'll accept you as my brother. You have to accept these clothes; you can't refuse!"

Before she finished speaking, Chen Xueru stuffed all the new clothes into Chen Wenqi's arms without saying a word.

"Oh, right, I'll go pick out two more pairs of leather shoes for you. Clothes need to be paired with suitable shoes to make you look more stylish." Chen Xueru said as she turned to get the new leather shoes that had just arrived at the store.

"Sister Xue Ru, really, it's not necessary. I have my own shoes, so there's no need to trouble you any further," Chen Wenqi said with a helpless expression.
