A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.
Chapter 239 Wasn't the plan to keep a low profile?
Li Xixue stared at herself.
Lu Yang quickly waved his hand and said, "I just feel that if you go, everyone's attention will be on you, and I'll become invisible."
After thinking about it, Li Xixue realized that it wasn't impossible. After all, her presence in that kind of setting would indeed cause quite a stir.
Lu Yang rubbed his chin.
"It's not impossible for you to go, just try to keep a low profile."
What does it mean to be low-key?
Li Xixue was somewhat bewildered.
To be honest, she has never known what it means to be low-key in all her life.
After careful consideration, Lu Yang spoke:
"It's just that... it's best if people don't recognize you too much."
"You don't quite recognize me?"
Li Xixue frowned.
These words were a bit abstract for her.
"How am I supposed to make sure people don't recognize me?"
Lu Yang thought for a moment: "Wear light makeup? Dress casually?"
Li Xixue looked down at herself.
"I usually dress very casually."
Lu Yang's lips twitched.
"I mean...be more down-to-earth."
Li Xixue remained silent for two seconds.
Grounding gas.
She wasn't very familiar with those three words either.
"Just tell me what to wear."
Lu Yang looked at Li Xixue.
She sat on the sofa, legs crossed, her beautiful eyes looking directly at him, waiting earnestly for his answer.
Lu Yang opened his mouth.
To be honest, the idea of asking Li Xixue to keep a low profile is a false proposition.
Even if you make her wear a burlap sack, people will still recognize her.
"never mind."
Lu Yang ultimately chose to give up.
"Just wear whatever you like, whatever you want."
Li Xixue raised an eyebrow: "Weren't we supposed to keep a low profile?"
"I've thought about it, and I realize I can't keep a low profile."
"Why? Aren't you afraid of being ignored?"
"There's probably nothing we can do about it."
Lu Yang rubbed his face: "I can't exactly tell you not to go, can I?"
Li Xixue didn't speak.
But the area around her mouth was loose.
This shows that he still wanted to go himself.
He's just being stubborn.
The two remained silent for a while.
Lu Yang looked down at his phone and read the text message Zhang Ran had sent him again.
Linjiang Youth Business Association.
To put it bluntly, it's just a circle.
It's easy to get into a social circle, but difficult to make a name for yourself in it.
Moreover, the cards he holds right now aren't particularly strong.
In that context, it wouldn't be considered top-tier.
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Xixue noticed his expression.
"Thinking about tomorrow."
"What is it?"
"I'm thinking about how to use you."
Li Xixue frowned.
Lu Yang quickly added, "Just kidding."
Li Xixue snorted, looked away, and continued looking at her phone.
A few seconds passed.
"When is the dinner?" she asked.
"I haven't received the email yet; it should be tomorrow night."
Li Xixue hummed in agreement, swiped her phone a couple of times, and opened a shopping app.
Lu Yang caught a glimpse of her looking at clothes out of the corner of his eye.
To be precise, I was looking at men's clothing.
"What are you doing?"
"Let me show you what to wear tomorrow."
Lu Yang was stunned.
"Are you picking out clothes for me?"
"None of the clothes in your closet are presentable, and besides, this is a major event. If you dress too shabbily, wouldn't you lose face?"
Lu Yang opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but couldn't say anything.
It seems so.
After all, this wasn't some small gathering, so I had to dress more formally.
Li Xixue crossed out several pages.
Lu Yang leaned closer to look at her phone screen.
A row of suit jackets slid past my eyes.
"You have good taste."
Lu Yang pointed to one of the fitted suits.
Li Xixue swiped her finger and skipped it.
"This one won't do."
Why?
"The fit is too tight; you'll look like a real estate agent in it."
Lu Yang: "..."
"And this one?" he asked, pointing to another item.
Li Xixue glanced at it and said, "It's too loose, like my family's old butler."
Lu Yang: "..."
Ok.
This won't work, that won't work.
Li Xixue scrolled through a few more pages, her pace slowing down.
Lu Yang leaned against her, watching her picky expression.
"If you keep picking and choosing like this, I might as well just wear a bathrobe tomorrow night."
Li Xixue turned her head and glanced at him.
The meaning in his eyes was clear: You dare?
"Just kidding."
Lu Yang quickly raised his hands in surrender.
Li Xixue looked away and continued scrolling through her phone.
Two more minutes passed.
She finally stopped on one of the items.
The dark gray suit set has a slightly glossy fabric that is not ostentatious. The collar is a neat and clean style, not a traditional business suit, but more casual.
"This one."
Li Xixue tilted her phone to show him.
Lu Yang glanced at it.
Okay.
At least he doesn't look like a real estate agent or a housekeeper.
"How much?"
Li Xixue didn't answer, but clicked on the link directly.
Lu Yang leaned closer to take a look.
Price: ¥38,800.
Lu Yang's lips twitched.
Thirty-eight thousand?
A suit costs 38,000?
Lu Yang pointed to the string of numbers on the screen: "Is the collar made of gold, or are the buttons made of gold?"
Li Xixue rubbed her chin.
Is it expensive?
Lu Yang stared at her profile.
This person genuinely thinks it's not expensive.
Okay, he forgot.
For someone of her status, 38,000 yuan was no different from 3.8 yuan.
But Lu Yang still felt a little uncomfortable.
"I'll buy it myself."
"You'll buy it?"
"right."
Lu Yang sat up straight: "I'm a grown man, I can't exactly go out to a social event wearing clothes my girlfriend bought me, can I?"
Li Xixue looked at him for two seconds.
Then, quite naturally, I asked a question.
"Is that not allowed?"
Lu Yang opened his mouth.
It doesn't seem like a bad thing for a wife to buy clothes for her husband.
"Alright..."
Lu Yang ultimately did not refuse.
Thirty-eight thousand it is.
Anyway, it wouldn't be appropriate to dress too shabbily for that kind of occasion tomorrow, so I'll just consider it an investment.
Li Xixue placed the order directly.
"Express delivery, will arrive tomorrow."
Lu Yang glanced at her fingers as she typed the information.
The old ring is still on the ring finger of my left hand.
She hasn't picked them since she got them from her mother's house.
Lu Yang looked away and yawned.
"Tired?" Li Xixue asked without looking up.
"A little."
"Go to sleep."
Aren't you going to sleep?
"I still have a few emails to reply to."
Lu Yang hummed in agreement and stretched.
"By the way, what are you planning to wear to the banquet tomorrow?"
Li Xixue glanced at him.
"What I wear is none of your business."
"Of course it matters," Lu Yang said matter-of-factly. "If you dress too nicely, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"What can't be controlled?"
"I can't control... the way people look at me."
Li Xixue paused, feeling a slight heat in her ear.
Lu Yang leaned against her, his head resting on her shoulder in a very cheeky manner.
"Are those emails of yours really that important?"
Li Xixue swiped the screen: "Mm."
How important is it?
"I must reply by tomorrow morning."
Lu Yang simply said "oh" and didn't say anything more.
A few seconds passed.
Li Xixue could feel the head on her shoulder moving.
It's not the kind of movement that slides downwards.
They're just taking advantage of the situation.
