With Lu Yunxi around, the fitting room became bustling with activity. Lu Anning picked out two simple satin dresses and sat quietly by the side, watching Lu Yunxi navigate through a variety of dresses, transforming herself into a dazzling butterfly.
The complicated design and too many diamonds would make you tired after just a few glances, but Lu Yunxi enjoyed it and wished she could pile all the dazzling things on herself.
After the final selection, the two people's dresses were put together, and Gu Yue frowned.
"Mom, isn't the style Yaoyao chose a bit too much?"
Lu Yunxi's smile froze, and she suddenly lowered her head: "It's my fault! I ignored my sister. She is the protagonist of the party. I should have considered her feelings. I'll go change it right away!"
As Lu Yunxi was speaking, she was about to change into another dress, but was stopped by Ji Yan.
"No need to change. If you like, then choose these."
Ji Yan turned around and looked at Lu An Ning: "You are the protagonist of the banquet. Are you trying to embarrass the Gu family by choosing these plain colors? Gu Yue, come with me and choose for her."
Lu Anning ignored Ji Yan's impatient tone and continued drinking tea. What to choose was their business, and what to wear depended on their mood.
"Lu Anning, how can you still be in the mood to drink tea here? If I were you, I would have been unable to sit still. I can't win over my family, and now I can't even control my own man. How dare you go out with such an obvious green hat on your head?"
Lu Anning glanced at her and didn't respond.
Lu Yunxi was furious and stepped forward sarcastically, "You can't even beat a college student. You're nothing but a loser. It won't be long before you're kicked out of the Tang family. When that happens, I'll see what you can still be arrogant about. Don't think you can do anything to me just because you're back at the Gu family. You saw it all just now! They'll do whatever I say. And look at you, you don't even have the freedom to choose a dress. What can you compare with me?"
Lu Yunxi leaned over and glared at Lu An Ning. She really wanted to strangle her to death so that she wouldn't have to worry about her status in the Gu family.
The next moment, before she could straighten up, a cup of hot tea was thrown in her face.
Lu An Ning calculated the distance just right, pouring the entire cup of tea onto Lu Yunxi's arrogant face without leaving a drop, without staining his clothes.
She leaned back in the rattan chair, her eyes cold: "Can you shut up? No, I'll give you another drink."
Lu An Ning discovered that when facing Lu Yunxi, he should never use words instead of hands, as it was too tiring.
The hot tea, which is less than 60 degrees, is just right, hot but not bubbly, and is the best way to deal with Lu Yunxi's chattering mouth.
A shrill scream filled the entire fitting room. Ji Yan and Gu Yue rushed over, only to see Lu Yunxi's face covered in tea stains, her delicate makeup smudged beyond recognition, and her red skin vaguely visible.
Lu Yunxi couldn't control her voice: "My face! It hurts. Mom, brother, my face... Sister, she splashed hot tea on my face. Will I be disfigured? I don't want to become an ugly monster."
At this moment, Lu Yunxi was really panicked.
Nothing must happen to the face she was so proud of.
Ji Yan's face was as cold as frost as she glared at Lu An Ning: "Are you crazy? How dare you throw hot tea in Yaoyao's face?"
Gu Yue pursed her lips, glanced at Lu An Ning, and said nothing. Lu Yunxi kept crying, and both mother and son were panicked.
"Mom, now is not the time to blame, let's send him to the hospital first!"
Ji Yan took Lu Yunxi away in a hurry, and before leaving, she did not forget to scold Lu An Ning a few words.
"You'd better think about how to explain this."
Gu Yue's face also looked unhappy. He wanted to say something several times but stopped himself. Finally, he hurriedly took Lu Yunxi away.
Only after the farce ended did Lu Anning feel that the world had finally quieted down. As for explanation, she felt that it was done, and there was nothing to explain.
What Lu Yunxi owed her couldn't be repaid with just a cup of hot water.
The trainee clerk witnessed all this and was too frightened to speak. Seeing Lu Anning was about to leave, he mustered up the courage to step forward.
"Miss, what about these two dresses?"
"Not for now. Thank you!"
There were many dresses here, but none that Lu Anning liked. They were not as good as the ones Tang Jingyuan had prepared for her at home. She might as well go home and choose. After leaving the studio, Lu Anning returned to the company to continue working.
Before getting off work, Lu Anning received a call from the Gu family, asking her to go back.
It was hard to tell whether Gu Zhiwei's tone was happy or angry, but Lu Anning guessed what it was about.
"good!"
As soon as Lu Anning left the company, Tang Jingyuan came to Haitian’s office building with a gloomy face.
After not going home all night, Tang Jingyuan had hoped to wait for Lu Anning to contact him. If she sent him an emoji, Tang Jingyuan would give her a way out. But he waited all day and didn't even get a single punctuation mark.
He can't sit still!
When the people in the company saw that it was him, they immediately lowered their heads and dared not stop him.
He came over with a cold face to arrest someone, but was reminded by Zhong Ling: "Third Master, Mr. Lu is not in the company."
Tang Jingyuan didn't believe it: "Zhong Ling, are you trying to play this trick on me too?"
He had used this excuse many times before.
"Really? Mr. Lu just left. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."
He pushed open the office door and left without seeing anyone. He looked out the window and vaguely saw a familiar car pulling into traffic and disappearing at the end of the road.
"Where is she going?"
That direction is not the way home. Does this woman want to stay out all night for two consecutive days?
Zhong Ling thought about it carefully: "She left after receiving a call from the Gu family. It seemed that they asked her to go back to the Gu family."
Tang Jingyuan frowned, said nothing more, turned and walked towards the elevator.
The Gu family asked her to go back, could there be any trouble again?
