Chapter 93 Is he Lu Chi?

"Lu Chi, what do you think of this outfit?" Yu Qing held up a white shirt in front of the mirror, comparing it to herself, and casually glanced at Lu Chi beside her.

"Either is fine," Lu Chi said.

Yu Qing held up the short-sleeved shirt against Lu Chi, nodded in satisfaction, then looked Lu Chi up and down curiously, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Why do I feel like you've grown taller recently?"

"No, we need to get a different size."

"Try them on... this one... and this one too, there's bound to be one that suits you."

Lu Chi obediently carried a pile of clothes into the fitting room.

A moment later, he came out wearing a white shirt with the collar slightly open, revealing his delicate collarbone, paired with black trousers, looking very casual and natural.

The sales assistant came over, her eyes lit up, and she praised him repeatedly: "Wow, this gentleman looks so handsome in this outfit, his temperament comes out immediately, his figure, his frame, he's simply a natural model."

"Thank you..." Lu Chi stammered.

Yu Qing looked at Lu Chi and couldn't help but lean closer, chuckling, "See? I told you, he becomes handsome when he takes off his glasses. Once you become handsome, you look good in anything."

“I… am not handsome.” Lu Chi shook his head.

These words reached the ears of the waiter, who smiled and said, "Sir, you are too modest. You have the best temperament I have ever seen in all my years in the industry. Your friend has excellent taste; the outfit is just right. He looks like a male protagonist straight out of a comic book."

Yu Qing winked and grinned mischievously, "Did you hear that, handsome guy?"

Lu Chi's face showed no emotion; he was simply unaccustomed to such sudden praise.

"Alright, let's take this set."

After saying that, Yu Qing went to the front desk to pay the bill. Her eyes fell on the bill that the waiter had just printed out from the computer, and she was dumbfounded the next second: "1098..."

Damn, how can it be so expensive?

Yu Qing couldn't help but take a deep breath.

No wonder the waiter was praising me so much just now; that's what he was waiting for.

However, looking at the handsome figure beside him, Yu Qing felt relieved.

A beautiful woman is given a rouge, a fine sword is given to a hero.

It's worth the price.

Yu Qing swiped her card with great satisfaction, then pulled Lu Chi directly outside, while Lu Chi was somewhat bewildered.

He knew the clothes were expensive, but he didn't expect them to be this expensive.

“I will pay you back this money,” Lu Chi said softly, secretly memorizing the amount.

Yu Qing raised an eyebrow: "So you don't consider me a friend?"

"No," Lu Chi immediately denied.

"Since you consider me a friend, then don't stand on ceremony with me." Yu Qing casually put his arm around Lu Chi's shoulder and said with high spirits, "From now on, as long as you follow me, I'll treat you to the best of everything, understand?"

"I understand." Lu Chi huddled under Yu Qing's arm like a chick, nodding as if he understood but not quite.

The two walked out of the mall.

"Are you alright? Should we take a taxi home?" Yu Qing suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Chi with concern. He noticed that Lu Chi was walking slightly unsteadily and couldn't help but feel worried.

“It can be done,” Lu Chi said with a determined look in his eyes.

Yu Qing knew that Lu Chi liked to show off, and was about to walk to the side of the road to hail a taxi.

But their steps stopped abruptly.

His gaze swept across the bustling crowd and suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

"Lu Chi, look, isn't that Yuan Xiu?"

Yu Qing pointed across the street, unconsciously raising her voice, her tone tinged with surprise.

Lu Chi followed his gaze and saw Yuan Xiu leaning on a heavy cane, as if he had suffered a major accident, his steps slow and labored.

"What happened to him?" Lu Chi asked curiously. He remembered that Yuan Xiu was perfectly fine on the day of the teacher appreciation banquet. How could his leg be broken just a few days later?

"Who knows? We'll find out by asking around." Yu Qing shrugged. He wasn't as surprised as Lu Chi, after all, Yuan Xiu always liked to come up with new tricks.

"Xiuer!" Yu Qing shouted, his voice cutting through the noise of the traffic.

Upon hearing this name, those around couldn't help but look at Yuan Xiu.

Yuanxiu had actually seen Yuqing long ago, but he was afraid that Yuqing would call him by his nickname, so he kept his distance. However, he still could not escape the fate of being killed by the gang.

He felt so embarrassed by the stares he was getting from the people around him that he wanted to disappear into the ground.

He didn't dare to respond, pretending not to hear, and quickly tried to leave, leaning on his cane.

Because they were walking too fast, they had only taken a few steps when they heard a scream, and the cane flew into the air.

Upon seeing this, Yu Qing and Lu Chi quickly crossed the road and ran over.

"Xiuer, are you alright?"

Yu Qing and Lu Chi rushed to Yuan Xiu's side, each grabbing one of his arms and carefully helping him up.

Yuanxiu was filled with bitterness.

He knew that Yu Qing was his nemesis.

If you encounter this living devil, nothing good is sure to come of it.

He is now utterly terrified.

But he still managed a smile: "It's nothing, a minor problem."

Yu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at his leg, which was in a cast, and asked, "What happened to your leg?"

Yuanxiu's eyes darted around, trying to hide his embarrassment and make his tone sound relaxed: "Oh, this? I twisted my ankle while playing basketball. It's nothing serious. Men get injured all the time."

Yu Qing stared at his feet with some suspicion: "I'm very curious, how wide did you twist your leg to break it?"

She truly lives up to her reputation as a beauty!

Yuan Xiu felt a little awkward. Then he noticed Lu Chi next to him and quickly changed the subject: "And who is this person next to you?"

"What? You don't recognize me after just a few days?" Yu Qing teased with a smile.

Yuan Xiu scrutinized Lu Chi for several moments before finally realizing what he was doing, her eyes widening in disbelief: "He...he's Lu Chi?"

My God, is this really Lu Chi?

Or is he dreaming?

He simply couldn't believe that the 1.8-meter-tall, aloof, handsome man in front of him was Lu Chi.

Lu Chi used to always wear a blue and white school uniform, old-fashioned glasses, and a conventional hairstyle. Now, with a change of clothes, the removal of his glasses, and a haircut, he's a completely different person.

"How about it, handsome, right?" Yu Qing asked smugly.

"He's barely a little bit more handsome than me," Yuanxiu said, pursing his lips.
