Chapter 204: Insist on Shopping
Grandma Huo looked at Lin Yilan's cautious look. In fact, she saw everything that had just happened, but she knew that if she said it out loud, Lin Yilan would definitely not be able to save face.
Moreover, regarding Lin Yilan's behavior, Grandma Huo actually thought that Lin Yilan was quite cute. It turned out that this was how Lin Yilan behaved when she was jealous.
"It's okay. Grandma saw that breakfast was almost ready, and since you hadn't come out yet, I came to call you. After all, skipping breakfast isn't good for your health. And since you've just come out of your room, go wash up and come over to eat with Grandma later."
"Um."
Lin Yilan responded obediently, feeling lucky that Grandma Huo didn't notice her actions. At the same time, she also lamented that she had to wash again.
She had already washed her face and brushed her teeth, and now she had to do it again, which was quite sad. But thinking that Grandma Huo hadn't noticed her little trick, she felt more relieved than sad.
…
After breakfast, Lin Yilan didn't plan to stay at the Huo family any longer. She went straight to find Chu Siran, intending to go to the Mo family's banquet with her. Chu Siran had long known that Lin Yilan was going to attend the Mo family's banquet with her, so when she saw Lin Yilan, she was not too surprised.
Chu Siran knew that Lin Yilan had never liked these things of the upper class, and the reason why he wanted to attend the banquet with her this time was also because of the endorsement of the milk tea shop.
only……
Chu Siran looked at Lin Yilan's casual outfit and frowned a little dissatisfied. Chu Siran thought Lin Yilan would gradually get used to wearing skirts, but looking at Lin Yilan's wide-leg pants...
She really regretted not recommending those beautiful dresses to Lin Yilan every time they went shopping.
Lin Yilan noticed Chu Siran's micro-expressions and moved a little unnaturally, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face, or is it that my clothes don't look good?"
"You guessed right, it's not very pretty."
"Really? I was wearing this dress a few days ago. Why didn't you tell me then? Why are you discussing clothes with me now? The main thing is to discuss going to the Mo family banquet."
Chu Siran could hear the impatience in Lin Yilan's words, but he didn't take it seriously. He still casually stroked his hair, his eyes still fixed on Lin Yilan's trouser legs.
This time, I couldn't help but click my tongue twice.
"Of course I know you wore this dress a few days ago. I also know you bought these pants when we went shopping together. But the point now is, are you going to wear this dress to the Mo family banquet?"
Lin Yilan didn't expect that this was what Chu Siran was talking about. She nodded in understanding, "Of course not. Although I really don't like those dresses, I also know that I can't wear such casual clothes to a party."
"So, are you planning on wearing a skirt?"
"Forget about skirts. There are many kinds of formal wear, right? You can also wear a suit."
When Chu Siran heard Lin Yilan say this, her eyes, which had just lit up with excitement, dimmed instantly. She knew there was no way Lin Yilan would wear a skirt. It was a pity that she had been a little bit expectant at the beginning.
Of course Lin Yilan noticed the disappointment in Chu Siran's eyes, but Chu Siran knew that she didn't like wearing skirts. It was okay that he encouraged her to buy skirts every time they went shopping in the mall, but why did he expect her to wear a skirt now when attending a party?
"Siran, are you really looking forward to me wearing a skirt?"
"Of course. You have such a great figure, it's really a waste to wear oversized skirts every day. What girl doesn't like skirts? You just can't get used to it. It's okay normally, but this time you must listen to me. You must wear a skirt to the Mo family's banquet. Don't let Mo Yanran outdo you."
After hearing Chu Siran say this seriously, Lin Yilan finally understood why Chu Siran was so persistent and asked her to wear a skirt this time.
Was he worried that Mo Yanran would steal the spotlight? But Lin Yilan never cared about such things. Besides, it was the Mo family's banquet, so shouldn't it be normal for Mo Yanran to be the center of attention?
Even without Lin Yilan saying anything, Chu Siran knew what she was thinking from her expression. "Have you forgotten that Mo Yanran went to such great lengths to meet Huo Juncheng? It's very likely that she likes him. What if Huo Juncheng and Mo Yanran really fall in love at this banquet? I'm doing this for your own good. I absolutely cannot let Mo Yanran lose out."
"Huo Juncheng shouldn't be so unsteady, right?"
"Who can say for sure? Mo Yanran is a rich girl after all, so her temperament is definitely very good. Plus, she has been working in the entertainment industry for many years. She is a goddess that everyone pursues, and she has a lot of halo around her. I'm just taking precautions. Besides, what's wrong with you dressing up beautifully?"
Chu Siran said this seriously and glanced at Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan knew that what Chu Siran said made sense, but who said that you have to wear a skirt to look good? She thought those beautiful suits looked good too.
"Don't worry, I know you are doing this for my own good, but Huo Juncheng will not go to the Mo family's banquet this time." Lin Yilan couldn't persuade her, so she had to bring up the fact that Huo Juncheng would not attend the Mo family banquet.
But Chu Siran didn't seem to believe it, staring at Lin Yilan, "How do you know Huo Juncheng won't go? What if he goes? What if..."
"There's no such thing as that," Lin Yilan shook her head helplessly, "The Mo family's invitation to Huo Juncheng is in my bag right now, so even if Huo Juncheng wants to go now, he can't."
"That won't do either. What if he really goes? What if he doesn't have an invitation? Everyone knows Huo Juncheng. He can just show up and show his face. Why would he need an invitation? Come with me and buy a little dress, and then steal the show!"
Originally, Lin Yilan was still determined to wear a suit, and the Huo family still had a few clothes to wear to the banquet, which were all bought by Huo Juncheng's servants at the time. However, Lin Yilan rarely attended these banquets, so she never had the chance to wear them.
But Chu Siran didn't give Lin Yilan any chance to say these things. After chattering to Lin Yilan, he directly dragged Lin Yilan to the commercial street where they usually went.
Lin Yilan thought Chu Siran was exaggerating. She felt that although Chu Siran said this for her benefit, in essence, it seemed that he just wanted her to wear a skirt. But she couldn't understand why Chu Siran had such a deep obsession with her wearing a skirt?
Lin Yilan really had no interest in shopping, but Chu Siran dragged her shopping together once or twice, and she gradually developed some interest from being bored at the beginning.
It was just a coincidence that Lin Yilan and Chu Siran met Chu Xi and Li Mu in the mall again. It was really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. The more you don’t want to see someone, the more you run into them every day!
"Li Mu, I'm just asking you why you weren't invited to the Mo family's banquet. If the Li family wasn't invited, it would be fine, but why did they invite Li Xiang but not you? What does the Mo family mean by this? Are they treating you differently?"
