Chapter 142 Don’t Want to Wear the Same Outfit as a Dog
She was dressed rather casually today. When the shop assistant came out to greet her, she looked her up and down and said indifferently, “Hello, welcome!”
“May I know what kind of clothes you need? We can give you some suggestions.”
Xu Wanwan shook her head politely. “I’ll take a look by myself.”
The style of this clothing store was very simple. Most of the clothes hanging in the store were long skirts. The style was elegant and very suitable for an important occasion.
Xu Wanwan walked around the store, and her gaze finally landed on a pure white satin dress.
This dress was designed with the simplest design, but the shape of the waist was very good. If the figure was good, it would appear very high-class. Her eyes lit up. Just as she was about to call the shop assistant over, she heard a familiar voice behind her–
“I’ll take this one!”
Xu Yue’s lips curled into a smug smile. She walked over hastily, pointed at the dress that Xu Wanwan wanted, and said to the shop assistant, “Wrap it up now.”
The shop assistant’s eyes lit up. She did not care whether Xu Wanwan liked it or not. She said eagerly, “Okay, please wait a moment.”
As she said that, the shop assistant quickly went to get the clothes.
Xu Yue raised her chin and walked up to Xu Wanwan. “How come you’re still in the mood to come here and buy clothes?” Xu Wanwan had quietly distanced herself from her and gave her a cold glance. “You’ve harmed Xu Yuchu so badly, but you’re still shopping for clothes?”
“That’s right.” Xu Yue smiled without hiding anything. “If you want to blame someone, you can only blame Xu Yuchu’s bad luck. Anyway, everything has happened. Didn’t Mom and Dad not blame me?”
Xu Wanwan furrowed her brows.
She really did not know why this person could be so shameless.
“I advise you to think about what you should do about tomorrow’s apprentice ceremony.”
Xu Yue sneered, “Do you think that by relying on disgraceful methods to succeed, you will be free of worries in the future?”
“Let me tell you, an unfathomable thing like art is not something that a country bumpkin like you can learn. If I were you, I would have run away with my tail between my legs.”
Xu Wanwan laughed lightly and retorted, “Why are you in such a hurry? If you really have the ability, then let’s not disturb each other and let each other shine. We wouldn’t have to use such a narrow-minded way to judge others, would
we?”
“Hmph, I’m telling the truth!” Xu Yue gritted her teeth and said unhappily, “A country bumpkin like you should just stay in the countryside. How dare you embarrass yourself?”
“What I do has nothing to do with you.” Xu Yue was speechless. “Just wait and see!”
She did not believe that Master Nanshan would really appreciate a country bumpkin like Xu Wanwan.
“Miss, your clothes are wrapped. Would you like to pay by card or cash?” Xu Yue knew that this was the one that Xu Wanwan wanted. She smiled with satisfaction. “Swipe my card!”
“Okay, please follow me.”
Just as Xu Yue left, she heard another shop assistant behind her ask Xu Wanwan, “Miss, we still have the last item of the same style in our shop. Would you like to try it?”
“No need, I don’t want to wear the same clothes as a dog.”
When Xu Wanwan said this, she deliberately raised her voice so that everyone in the shop could hear her.
She turned around and left gracefully. Xu Yue was so angry that her face turned black, her fists tightly clenched.
How could a country bumpkin be so arrogant!
“Stop right there!”
Xu Yue was so angry that she rushed forward and grabbed Xu Wanwan. “You country bumpkin, what right do you have to criticize me?”
“Am I wrong?” A trace of sarcasm flashed across Xu Wanwan’s lips. “You can even hurt your own family, I think you’re worse than a dog.”
“Animals all know how to reciprocate and have feelings. You’re indeed worse than them.”
Xu Yue was so angry that she took a deep breath and raised her hand to slap Xu Wanwan.
However, this slap was stopped in mid-air.
Xu Wanwan used a bit of strength and directly shook off her arm. She said coldly, “Don’t touch me.”
Xu Yue staggered a few steps back, almost falling to the ground.
She completely lost her mind and screamed, “Xu Wanwan, just you wait!”
Xu Wanwan did not want to argue with her. She put her hand into her pocket and turned around to walk back.
Xu Yue looked at her carefree back and almost suffocated with anger.
Xu Wanwan, you’ll see tomorrow!
After walking out of that clothing store, Xu Wanwan was not in the mood to continue shopping.
She looked around a few more stores and was about to leave when she suddenly found a qipao store.
The qipao in the store was simple, elegant, and classical. Every single one of them had a different charm, exuding the unique charm of a Chinese woman.
Xu Wanwan’s eyes flashed with a hint of amazement as she walked into the store.

She immediately took a liking to the pure black velvet qipao. Whether it was the Chinese knot at the collar or the exquisite embroidery on the cuffs, they were all perfect.
The shop assistant said enthusiastically, “Miss, your taste is really good. This is our new product. You can try it on.” Xu Wanwan’s eyes lit up. “Okay, take it down and let me try it on.”
After she entered the changing room and changed into the qipao, she was shocked when she stood in front of the mirror.
This qipao had a slit at the side of the leg, but it was not revealing at all. The good cut accentuated her beautiful waist.
The dress was really dignified. After wearing it, she looked as if she was a young girl from the Republic of China.
Xu Wanwan smiled in satisfaction. “I want this
one.”
The shop assistant enthusiastically praised her and then took Xu Wanwan for payment.
After buying the things she needed to buy, Xu Wanwan took a taxi and went home.
Although there was a small incident on the way home, she was still in a good mood when she got home.
She hummed a tune and was walking toward the living room when she saw Li Jingran sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper. “You’re home?”
Xu Wanwan was delighted. She looked at the time and realized that it was already seven o’clock in the evening.
However, Li Jingran always worked overtime during this period of time and would not come back for dinner most of the time.
“Well, where did you go?”
Li Jingran heard the voice, put down the newspaper, and leisurely leaned on the sofa, narrowing his eyes slightly.
Xu Wanwan walked over with a smile. “The apprenticeship ceremony is going to be held tomorrow. I went to the mall to buy a dress this afternoon.”
“You only bought one piece?” Xu Wanwan nodded in satisfaction. “Yes! This style is my favorite, so just buying one piece is enough.”
Li Jingran frowned imperceptibly and looked down. He noticed the brand on the girl’s hand-held box and took note of it.
Why did his girl have to live so frugally?
“Butler, find this brand of clothes and get someone to send the new ones here on time every month.”
“Yes…”
The Butler held his forehead and took out a small notebook. He carefully wrote down the brand of the clothes and then ran to the side to make a call.
Xu Wanwan’s eyes were full of astonishment. “What are you doing?”
“You don’t have to save me money. If you like it, then buy it all,” Li Jingran said lightly.
Xu Wanwan sighed lightly.
What a rich guy.
“But that’s the money you worked hard to earn. There’s no need to spend so much on me,” Xu Wanwan said seriously. “Besides, as long as there are enough clothes to wear, there’s no need to be so extravagant.”
