Wen Lu smiled gently when she heard Wang Jinyu's teasing words. She hadn't expected that Wang Jinyu's casual remark would actually become true. She gently squeezed Wang Jinyu's large hand under the table.
Watching the interaction between Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu, Yan Luo felt that he was superfluous standing there. He didn't say anything more. After having breakfast in the room, he left Wen Lu's ward after she started her IV drip.
He still had to go home to handle the birthday banquet. Recently, the Yan family had been overwhelmed with trouble because of the Wen family's meddling, so these matters had to fall on his shoulders.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Xiuyi walked in from outside carrying two suits. Wen Lu looked at the suit boxes in Wang Xiuyi's hands and shook her head at him.
"I don't want to wear a formal dress tonight; I don't want to be too conspicuous at the banquet."
Wang Jinyu, who was processing emails, heard Wen Lu's words, raised his eyes and glanced at the box of the top-tier dress in Wang Xiuli's hand. He raised an eyebrow, remembering that the dress he had customized for Wen Lu was not a formal dress.
In fact, Wang Jinyu had ulterior motives. He couldn't imagine how beautiful Wen Lu would look in a formal dress, and he wanted to hide Wen Lu's brilliance.
"Just bring her the outfit I prepared. Formal dresses... aren't suitable for her."
When Wang Jinyu said that the dress was not suitable for Wen Lu, he unconsciously looked in Wen Lu's direction. He could say those insincere words so easily now.
Wen Lu leaned lazily against the bed, playing a game and not even glancing at Wang Jinyu. Subconsciously, she felt that Wang Jinyu was right. Although Wen Lu was stunningly beautiful, she was still too immature. A formal dress would be more suitable for her two years from now.
"No, Fourth Master, Miss Wen specifically instructed that her status is special tonight. The outfit you prepared is too casual. This outfit is more suitable for Miss Wen's status."
Wang Xiuyi rarely refuted Wang Jinyu's words, but it was when he met Wang Jinxian at the place where he picked up the dress that he saw the clothes Wang Jinyu had prepared for Wen Lu and realized how outrageous the clothes Wang Jinyu had prepared were.
Although it's expensive, it's really not suitable for today's occasion.
Wen Lu didn't know what clothes Wang Jinyu had prepared for her. After finishing a game, she looked at Wang Xiuyi, who looked troubled.
She reached out her hand to Wang Xiuyi, gesturing for him to bring the dress over so she could take a look at its style. If she could accept it, it wouldn't be out of the question.
Seeing that Wen Lu did not refuse, Wang Xiuyi excitedly placed the dress by Wen Lu's bedside. Wen Lu opened the lid of the dress, glanced at the dress in the box, and narrowed her eyes slightly. She never expected that the dress she had been saving at the bottom of her trunk would end up in her hands.
Looking at the dress she had designed, Wen Lu no longer felt any resistance. She raised an eyebrow at Wang Jinyu, who was looking at her, and spoke in a detached tone.
"This dress is quite nice, let's wear this one."
As she spoke, Wen Lu sat up from the hospital bed, looked at Wang Xiuyi, and asked in a calm tone, "You came to deliver this dress to me, didn't you bring a makeup artist? You're not going to make me do my own makeup, are you?"
Wen Lu is someone who never likes to wear makeup, so if she has to do her own makeup while wearing this dress, it would be quite a challenge for her.
"Of course not, Miss has already arranged a professional makeup team for you. They're waiting outside and can come in to serve you at any time..."
Without Wen Lu's consent, Wang Xiuyi dared not bring anyone in, especially since he knew his master's temper well and was worried about causing unnecessary trouble.
With Wen Lu's permission, Wang Xiuyi immediately invited the makeup artist in from outside.
The moment the makeup artist saw Wen Lu, combined with the dress Wang Xiuyi had brought, she could already picture what Wen Lu's makeup should look like.
Wen Lu narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the makeup artist team that came in with Wang Xiuyi. She thought that Wang Jinxian had really gone to great lengths to make such a complicated event for a casual banquet.
Half an hour later, Wen Lu's makeup and dress were all done. In Wang Jinyu's eyes, Wen Lu looked like an angel who had fallen to earth.
Wang Jinyu looked at Wen Lu, narrowed his eyes slightly, stood up and walked to Wen Lu's side, casually picked up the coat placed by the bed, draped it over Wen Lu's shoulders, and spoke gently.
"It's cold, so wear more clothes when you go out to avoid catching a cold."
The makeup artists present were all extremely surprised by this side of Wang Jinyu.
Although it was their first time meeting Wang Jinyu in person, they had heard too many rumors about him from various socialites, the most common of which was that Wang Jinyu was not interested in women.
But seeing how gently Wang Jinyu treated Wen Lu, they all felt that the Wang Jinyu those people talked about was not the same person they were seeing now...
Unable to watch any longer, the makeup artists hurriedly packed up their things and left Wen Lu's ward after receiving the red envelopes from Wang Xiuyi.
At this moment, only Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu remained in the ward. Wang Jinyu had one arm around Wen Lu's waist, and his slightly calloused fingers gently caressed Wen Lu's back as he spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice.
"You are a little enchantress, whether before or now, you are so beautiful that it's impossible to look away."
Looking at Wen Lu at this moment, Wang Jinyu couldn't help but think of the figure of Mei Ying, dressed in a bright red dress.
Looking into Wen Lu's alluring eyes, he felt as if the two figures had naturally merged together.
Looking into Wang Jinyu's burning eyes, Wen Lu reached out, hooked her arm around Wang Jinyu's neck, and revealed an innocent smile.
"Wang Jinyu, you didn't already have feelings for Phantom a long time ago, did you?"
When Wen Lu asked him this question, Wang Jinyu smiled slightly. He unconsciously tightened his grip on Wen Lu's waist, leaned down, and whispered in Wen Lu's ear.
"If I didn't know you were Phantom, I wouldn't have had so many feelings for her. But ever since I learned your identity, I can't help but think of that striking red figure..."
Before Wang Jinyu could finish speaking, Wen Lu raised her finger and pressed it against Wang Jinyu's thin lips. Soon after, there was a knock on the door.
Wang Jinyu released Wen Lu, walked to the door, opened it, and saw a man holding a dress box standing outside. The man spoke to Wang Jinyu politely and respectfully.
"Hello sir, I'm here to deliver a dress to Miss Wen Lu. Please sign for it."
Wang Jinyu looked at the dress in the man's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought of the man who had delivered the package that Wang Xiuyi had mentioned that morning. He reached out and took the dress from the man's hand, but before he could say anything, the man hurriedly left.
