Chapter 246 The Boss Gets Jealous



Although the style and quality are better than the white top.

However, besides symbolizing celebration, bright red is also a very powerful color that most people cannot pull off.

If you can't pull off the boldness of bright red, or if your personal style doesn't match, you'll just look more like an ordinary passerby.

In more serious cases, they are portrayed as clowns.

Bai Lu is confident that she won't be made to look like a clown, but it's hard to say whether her temperament will be suppressed or rebounded if the style doesn't match.

"Acheng, this outfit doesn't suit me very well. Can you help me pick out another one?"

She didn't want to conduct experiments in front of Xiao Cheng; she had to maintain her image. No matter when or where, she had to remain composed, dignified, and refuse any behavior that would damage her image.

Xiao Cheng didn't leave. Instead, he opened the door and put the clothes directly into Bai Lu's arms, saying, "You'll only know if they fit if you change them."

Bai Lu: "..."

He even considerately closed the door.

Even a second before closing the door, he gave her a fleeting, irresistible smile.

His eyes, however, held a cold, threatening command—'Change your clothes obediently, or else…'

Bai Lu wasn't afraid of anything; she just suddenly wanted to see what she would look like in red.

After quickly changing her clothes, Bai Lu opened the door and took her first step towards the full-length mirror.

"My goodness! Is it really that beautiful?" The proprietress rushed over, her eyes shining as she looked at Bai Lu.

"You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in red since I opened my shop, and the most suitable woman to wear red!"

"You have a special kind of charm. Whether you wear red or white, you look stunning. Especially this bright red one, it blends perfectly with you, giving you the feeling of Empress Wu Zetian, who ruled the world, with an aura that no one can match!"

The female boss is ultimately a step ahead of the male boss; she praises people relentlessly, to the point of exhaustion.

Her expression was very serious, and she spoke with certainty. The way she looked at Bai Lu was so stunning that it seemed as if flowers could bloom from her eyes.

Bai Lu looked at her radiant reflection in the mirror and was a little surprised and astonished.

It's actually quite pleasing to the eye.

"Beautiful." A compliment from a big shot.

Unprecedented, he made his assessment before even asking Bailu, and his tone was quite credible.

A piercing gaze... that seems quite believable.

The proprietress, seizing the opportunity, smiled and said to Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu, "You two are the most compatible couple I've ever seen. You're a perfect match, a golden couple, handsome and beautiful. You look good in anything, and you're a perfect couple no matter what you wear."

"I've run a clothing store for so many years and have seen countless young couples. Many of them look alike, but none are as perfectly matched as you two. You two are truly a couple, a match made in heaven. This must be a blessing from a past life!"

A predestined relationship from a past life...

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu was overwhelmed with emotions, unable to distinguish between sorrow and joy.

Whether it's bittersweet or joyful, whether to take a step forward, maintain the status quo, or follow your feelings.

Is it the Golden Triangle of cases, or Xiao Cheng right in front of us?

Xiao Cheng withdrew his gaze from Bai Lu's face, said nothing, paid the bill for the proprietress, took the bag of clothes in one hand, and left with his other arm around Bai Lu.

"I still need to buy clothes for Xiao Wei; he'll be home from school later."

It was indeed Bai Lu who suggested buying clothes for Xiao Wei; it was planned before we went shopping, and we were going to buy clothes for both Xiao Cheng and Xiao Wei.

After buying clothes, I also bought groceries on my way home. Bai Lu's clothes weren't on my itinerary, but I still bought them anyway.

Bai Lu quickly calmed herself down and went to a children's clothing store with Xiao Cheng to buy clothes for Xiao Wei.

One person picked out an outfit for Xiao Wei, from head to toe.

This time, Xiao Cheng didn't remain silent like last time. Instead, he chose a set from the same series as Bai Lu, but in a different color.

Bai Lu laughed at his laziness: "Why don't you choose one yourself? These two outfits are exactly the same inside and out, except for the color. What if Xiao Wei doesn't like them?"

"He dares?" Xiao Cheng asked with a cold expression.

Bai Lu couldn't help but laugh when she recalled the little guy's pitiful look as he waited for his older brother's favor: "He wouldn't dare."

Putting aside whether he dared or not, even if Xiao Cheng gave him a sack, Xiao Wei would treasure it like a precious gem.

Not to mention sending clothes, Xiao Wei must be laughing in his dreams at night, he's so happy.

As Bai Lu had predicted, she returned home.

Xiao Wei was so happy to receive the clothes from Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng that he ran ten laps around the yard.

The innocent, childlike face was full of joy and laughter, radiating carefree childhood moments.

Looking at the happy little guy, Bai Lu still felt lingering fear when she recalled what Liu Zhenguo had said.

This world contains not only light, but also darkness; people can be good or bad, and there are also heartless scumbags.

There's a saying that's true.

Hell is empty, all the devils are here on earth.

Going to jail is too lenient for scum.

It is impossible for people to truly empathize with each other. Only by experiencing it firsthand can one feel whether "pain" is just a word or a burning pain, a dull pain, a pain like being pierced by a thousand arrows, a pain like being cut by a knife, or a pain that tears one's heart apart.

Since they've committed the crime themselves, they should use the force of justice to teach them a lesson and bring them retribution.

"Knock knock knock—"

Suddenly, a knock sounded at the door. Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng were washing vegetables, and Xiao Wei, who had run ten laps, went to open the door.

Standing outside the door was a petite, smiling girl with red lips and white teeth, holding a notebook and a pen in her hand. She asked Xiao Wei in a soft voice.

Is your brother home?

Xiao Wei remembered her; Yang Sisi, the town mayor's daughter, was a senior in high school this year and went to the same school as Yu Xiaoling.

Yang Sisi used to have a crush on the older brother. She would often ask him about the older brother and even asked him to deliver love letters to him.

After being rejected by him once, I stopped sending them.

"My brother and sister-in-law are both home." Xiao Wei opened the door, which was only slightly ajar.

Let Yang Sisi see the situation in the yard clearly.

Bai Lu didn't move when she heard that the person was looking for Xiao Cheng, and Xiao Cheng didn't move when he heard that the person was looking for him.

So the two of them continued washing vegetables.

"Brother Cheng," Yang Sisi called out.

Bai Lu snatched the unwashed lettuce from Xiao Cheng's hand: "They need to talk to you, why don't you hurry up and go out?"

Xiao Cheng stared at Bai Lu, who was still washing vegetables, and saw that she had no expression on her face and was washing vegetables quite happily. He then grabbed her hand and walked out.

Bai Lu hadn't even finished peeling the lettuce when she was suddenly pulled away, looking completely bewildered: "What are you doing?"

"They're looking for you, not me. I haven't finished peeling my lettuce yet, I need to go back and peel it..."

"I'll shave it later."

"The sun has already set. Aren't you hungry? I can go back and peel the meat and then cook. You can talk about what you need to talk about, and then you can eat, okay?"

"not good."

"I think it's great."

Say it again.

Bai Lu: "..."

"Actually, the sun has just set, and there's no rush to cook. Maybe they really have something important to do. Should I go and see them?"

Xiao Cheng readily agreed: "Go ahead."
