Jiang Wenxi's joy froze instantly.

She stared straight at Ji Yuhuai.

He finally asked the question.

"Ah Huai, are you really just here to help me pick out a dress?"

Jiang Wenxi lowered her head with a self-deprecating smile. She asked the question calmly, even with a hint of scrutiny.

"You still want to send Lin Qingyi a dress, and you want to use my name?"

Ji Yuhuai frowned, his disgust evident in his eyes.

"Why would I have thought of giving her a dress?"

He paused, then added, "I don't even want to see her at the banquet."

"If you hadn't asked her to protect you, I wouldn't have let her go."

Seeing his furrowed brows, Jiang Wenxi's displeasure seemed to dissipate. "Now that you mention it, I do think it's necessary to send her a dress."

"Um?"

"What if she tries to sabotage me at the banquet?" Jiang Wenxi rolled her eyes. "She's the kind of person who holds grudges, Ah Huai, you know that, right?"

Ji Yuhuai smiled indulgently, "I'll do whatever you say."

"I need to buy her the most old-fashioned outfit possible, otherwise she'll look more elegant than me in it, and that would be a problem."

Jiang Wenxi pouted.

Ji Yuhuai pinched her cheek, his tone full of indulgence and doting, "Okay."

"Let's go with that black velvet gown." Jiang Wenxi's gaze fell on the plain dress in the display case.

But when she got back to her car and saw the receipt after paying, she was stunned.

"This black dress has no style whatsoever, why is it priced at 99,000?"

Jiang Wenxi is unhappy again.

The dress she carefully selected only cost a little over 30,000 yuan.

The dress I casually picked out for Lin Qingyi was surprisingly expensive.

Unfortunately, she was thinner than Lin Qingyi, so she couldn't wear this size.

Actually, her figure fits the aesthetic standards of young girls.

Because he was always hungry and cold as a child, he was very thin.

Lin Qingyi is not fat. She has eaten well since she was a child, and she has curves in all the right places.

She had seen it all, and even when she saw Lin Qingyi's figure, she felt a slight urge to swallow.

Since the money had already been spent, and with the idea of ​​making the dress achieve its maximum value, Jiang Wenxi asked Ji Yuhuai to drive her to deliver the dress to Lin Qingyi.

"Pretty auntie!"

Lin Qingyi heard children's voices, but when she turned around, there was no one there.

She thought she was hallucinating, but the next second, a tiny little one got out of the car parked on the side of the road.

"Pretty auntie, do you remember me?"

The little girl, holding a doll, ran towards her.

Looking at the child's features, Lin Qingyi quickly squatted down.

"It's you, little one."

The little girl wearing a UM vest at the airport earlier.

"So, did you find your dad?"

At that time, the child was unattended and said that his mother had died and he had come to find his father.

"Found it." The little girl nodded. "Daddy came here to visit a friend, and the driver and I are waiting for him in the car."

Lin Qingyi touched the ends of her hair. "Why is your hair so messy?"

She had previously saved many hairstyle tutorials for little girls online.

She imagined that when Xiaoyundou grew up, she would comb Xiaoyundou's hair in different ways every day.

Seeing how cute the little girl was, she suddenly wanted to try her hand at it.

"I just woke up and kept fidgeting around in the car," the little girl chuckled, "and that's how I got all messed up."

The two stood by the roadside, Lin Qingyi combed her hair, and she chatted with Lin Qingyi.

"Auntie, can I come visit you sometime?"

"Of course." Lin Qingyi took out a sticky note from her backpack and wrote down her current address. "My phone number and address, we can also add each other as friends."

"Can you comb my hair again next time?"

The little girl looked up at her.

Lin Qingyi saw the joy in her eyes and smiled along with her.

When Ji Yuhuai and Jiang Wenxi returned, this was the scene they witnessed.

The smile on her face was warm and vivid, radiant and beautiful.

Ji Yuhuai couldn't remember the last time he saw her smile so happily.

A smile like that is much more pleasing to the eye than her aggressive and confrontational manner.

Ji Yuhuai curled his lips into a smile.

Jiang Wenxi followed his gaze and looked over.

"I haven't seen Sister Qingyi smile so happily in a long time."

Jiang Wenxi sighed, "Indeed, loving the right person makes you shine."

She told me this afternoon that she felt so relaxed and happy when she wanted to marry Pei Heng.

Now it seems she's genuinely satisfied with the current situation, which is why she's smiling so happily.

Ji Yuhuai's eyes darkened instantly. "Go deliver the dress. I won't go down."

"Okay." Jiang Wenxi gave Ji Yuhuai a meaningful look, then opened the car door and walked towards Lin Qingyi.

After saying goodbye to the children, Lin Qingyi gave Jiang Wenxi a look.

When Lin Qingyi learned that her mother had bought her such an expensive dress, she didn't believe it.

She had a feeling that there was some kind of trap involved that she wouldn't be able to avoid.

So, after taking the dress home, she found the store's contact information through the brand.

"Madam, the dress you mentioned is a city-limited edition; there's only one of its kind available in our store."

The sales clerk explained softly, "Someone bought this dress before, but hasn't come to pick it up yet."

When we contacted the customer later, he told us to do whatever we wanted with him.

We were afraid that customers would come back to pick it up, so we kept it in the display case.

Today, that customer made it clear that she no longer needed this dress.

That's why we're reselling it.

If the size is not suitable, our designers can provide alteration services.

"I just tried it on, and it fits perfectly." Lin Qingyi looked at her curvaceous figure in the mirror and was very satisfied with Jiang Wenxi's taste.

With the store clerk's verification, her doubts were dispelled.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Qingyi couldn't help but exclaim, "Perfect!"

The next day, the weather was bad.

Lin Qingyi's arms were a little sore, and she didn't want to move.

But she needed to wear high heels with the dress, so she had to go to the mall.

Pei Heng appeared at the door right on time, saying he was there to hand in his homework.

In reality, he was just looking for an excuse to see her.

The two went out for a meal, and Lin Qingyi took a look at the project proposal he had made.

There were two obvious data errors, which made Lin Qingyi frown.

"Qingyi, pinch my ear."

Pei Heng leaned his head over, "Only when it hurts will I learn my lesson."

In his senior year of high school, he went to Ji Yuhuai to do his homework, and Lin Qingyi tutored both of them.

The same mistake Lin Qingyi would make, treating Ji Yuhuai's ear like a switch to turn.

For him, it became a mild and insignificant reminder.

At that time, he secretly vowed that one day, Lin Qingyi would twist his ear!

Helpless, Lin Qingyi reached out and twisted his earlobe ninety degrees. "Have you learned your lesson?"

"It's grown, it's grown." Pei Heng rubbed his ear, which she had twisted, in disbelief.

It didn't hurt at all, just a tingling, numb feeling, like I was getting an electric shock.

No, something feels creepy behind me.

He turned slightly, his gaze meeting Ji Yuhuai's as he walked into the restaurant...
