When Ni Sitian heard him say that, she realized that he had been bothered by this matter all along.
She was both amused and exasperated. She considered herself to be very conservative, and this dress, if worn normally, should have revealed two centimeters of cleavage. She had even asked Battis to alter it that day, and now it only revealed a tiny bit of cleavage.
Xu Tingchuan was still arguing about this, so she couldn't help but laugh and say, "This is not low at all. Secretary Lin's car is almost up to her navel. Look at the others. I'm considered very conservative."
"What does it matter to me if she doesn't wear it?" Xu Tingchuan didn't understand why she was using other people as examples.
She is his wife. What does it matter to him if other men see her? He only cares whether she has been seen by other men.
"Mr. Xu, don't be so stingy. Just like you said, as long as you're by my side, how dare they look at me?" Ni Sitian smiled sweetly with her eyes narrowed, her tone slightly coquettish.
Xu Tingchuan was still a little bothered, but he couldn't really let her change her clothes. He could only secretly think that he should keep a close eye on her tonight.
As the two were talking, Ni Sitian heard someone call her from behind, so she turned around.
Xiang Zhilan walked over arm in arm with Feng Jingxian. Today, Xiang Zhilan was wearing a simple crimson dress, revealing her shoulders, and she was already the most beautiful woman in the world.
Ni Sitian had to admit that in front of such a radiant beauty as Xiang Zhilan, even though she was dressed in gorgeous and exquisite clothes, she was only as delicate as a lotus emerging from water, while Xiang Zhilan was as vibrant and colorful as a peony.
Being friends with such a beautiful woman must be incredibly stressful for her.
All the gazes that had been wanting to look at her but not daring to were suddenly focused on Zhi Lan. Even though Zhi Lan's long dress was not form-fitting and only revealed her collarbone, her beauty alone overshadowed all the women present.
Ni Sitian once joked that it was a waste of Xiang Zhilan's good looks not to become a star, and she still thinks so now.
"Sitian, Mr. Xu." Xiang Zhilan approached with Feng Jingxian, smiling as she greeted them.
Ni Sitian smiled, said a few words to Zhi Lan, and then looked at Feng Jingxian, who was talking to Xu Tingchuan.
Feng Jingxian was dressed in a light gray suit today, looking elegant and composed, which suited Xiang Zhilan well.
She glanced at him briefly, then turned back to speak with Zhi Lan, asking in a low voice, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhi Lan wore rather heavy makeup today, and Ni Sitian knew that she was probably trying to cover up her pale complexion from seasickness.
"It's alright." Xiang Zhilan smiled faintly at Ni Sitian, afraid that she would worry.
Ni Sitian wanted to ask a couple more questions when she saw Shen Muzhi and Pei Yang walk in from outside the hall.
Pei Yang wore a light blue casual suit, still sporting his signature dashing and suave style.
What caught Ni Sitian's eye was Shen Muzhi beside him.
Unlike other men who dress formally in suits and ties, Shen Muzhi is dressed quite casually in a dark red velvet handmade suit with a black shirt underneath, the top two buttons undone to reveal his smooth collarbone.
Although his temperament was somewhat cold and aloof, his features were very handsome. His attire reminded Ni Sitian of a particularly romantic phrase: charmingly wicked and arrogant. He was different from everyone else here.
When Xiang Zhilan saw Ni Sitian looking behind her, she couldn't help but turn her head away.
Her gaze met Shen Muzhi's cold, dark eyes.
