On Saturday morning, Lu Zhe woke up, brushed his teeth and washed his face, and felt refreshed, but then went back to bed.
He drew back the curtains, leaned against the pillows, picked up a programming textbook, and began to read by the light of day.
It was a cloudy day, and he felt quite comfortable reading quietly in this dark room.
But this peaceful time was not long before it was disrupted by an uninvited guest.
The uninvited guest who suddenly barged into the bedroom was Tang Qi.
The young lady, carrying a large bag, said excitedly, "The clothes I bought for you have arrived. Try them on!"
Lu Zhe looked up at her, his eyes filled with confusion: "Why did you buy me clothes..."
"Oh, never mind, we've already bought it, hurry up and try it on! The clothes are here, I'm going out now, come out and show them to me when you're changed!"
After saying that, Tang Qi actually turned around and left.
Lu Zhe looked at the bag on the table, remained silent for a while, then got out of bed and walked over.
Then he realized that the bag looked big, but it actually only contained one suit. However, to avoid wrinkling the suit, it was laid flat. In other words, the bag looked big, but it was actually quite thin.
This suit includes a dark shirt, trousers, and a jacket. The shirt, trousers, and jacket are all quite thin, suitable for the cooler weather of September; as long as you don't get directly in the sun, you won't sweat much. Besides being thin, the quality of this suit is also quite good.
Then Lu Zhe couldn't help but think of the outfit he had hidden in the closet.
The clothes Xia Xiaobing gave him, along with the boots, had been hidden in his closet, and he hadn't worn them for days. He could easily make up an excuse, like saying he'd finally figured out how to dress and wanted to buy some nicer new clothes—that wouldn't be unreasonable. But the thought of wearing Xia Xiaobing's clothes in front of Tang Qi and Xue Xiaodie was enough to make him feel uneasy.
These past few days, he felt he had enough psychological pressure and really didn't want to add any more.
After hesitating in the room for a while, the bedroom door suddenly opened again.
As soon as Tang Qi pushed the door open, she saw that he was only wearing shorts and quickly asked, "Why aren't you dressed yet?"
Lu Zhe: "I..."
Tang Qi: "Don't tell me you don't know how to wear a suit."
With an excuse readily available, Lu Zhe immediately seized the opportunity: "Yes, because I saw a tie here, so I was thinking about how to tie it."
Tang Qi: "Then why didn't you use your phone to check?"
Lu Zhe: "Because I suddenly felt that it might be okay not to wear a tie... Okay, don't rush me, I'll put it on now."
Tang Qi nodded and pulled on the doorknob to back away. However, just as the door was about to close, she paused, then pushed it back.
The young lady returned to the bedroom, closed the door behind her, and stood there with her back against the door.
Lu Zhe: "Any other questions?"
Tang Qi chuckled to herself, "I want to see you."
Lu Zhe raised an eyebrow: "Please, I'm getting dressed, what's so interesting about that?"
However, Tang Qi nodded seriously: "Yes, it looks good."
Lu Zhe: "..."
Under the girl's watchful gaze, Lu Zhe put on a shirt and trousers, picked up his tie, looked at it, and then put it back.
Then he picked up the suit jacket, compared its length, and said, "This looks like a trench coat."
Tang Qi nodded and said, "It's a trench coat. I bought a trench coat suit."
Lu Zhe: "There's such a combination?"
Tang Qi laughed and said, "Of course, this kind of combination is very popular lately. Of course, it's understandable that you don't know, since you're not usually someone who pays attention to clothing styles."
Lu Zhe put on his trench coat and asked, "So you'll pay attention to your clothing style then?"
Tang Qi nodded: "Besides playing games, I sometimes browse Xiaohongshu and other places to learn about fashion. Actually, I know quite a lot about fashion styles, but my style might be a little monotonous when I'm with you."
Lu Zhe casually asked, "Why?"
Tang Qi: "Because you like me wearing cute clothes. Because I like you."
This spontaneous confession in everyday life caught Lu Zhe off guard. He looked at the young lady and saw her sweet yet slightly shy smile.
He cleared his throat, trying to change the subject: "Why did you suddenly decide to buy me clothes?"
Tang Qi: "Because I like you."
Lu Zhe: "..."
Tang Qi walked over in a few steps, straightened his collar, and smiled, "Liking you is only one aspect. The key is that you have a new job. This outfit is the work uniform I bought for you."
Lu Zhe: "What job requires a uniform?"
Tang Qi: "Because I'm about to register at school, and of course I'll have to trouble my personal assistant with the enrollment procedures and such. What, don't you like this job?"
While explaining her new job duties, the young lady was also watching his expression closely, afraid that he might be unhappy.
Lu Zhe shrugged: "I don't dislike it. Besides, it's just part of my job, so it should be fine."
Tang Qi added softly, "But the reporting date isn't a weekend, it's a weekday... Is that still okay?"
Lu Zhe fell silent.
He started thinking about how to ask Xia Xiaobing for leave on a weekday. Would Xia Xiaobing be willing to go and help Tang Qi if he simply said he needed to?
So what should he do if President Xia is not willing?
Tang Qi said cautiously, "Actually, I've thought about it. If you really can't get away, we can keep in touch online. I'll go alone, and if anything happens, I can contact you anytime... Besides, it's just the start of school registration, so there shouldn't be much to do. I can also call a bodyguard to help me with my luggage."
Lu Zhe: "Your father hired all those bodyguards, right? Can you even command them?"
Tang Qi: "It should be okay..."
Lu Zhe pondered for a long time in silence.
Tang Qi stared at him quietly.
Finally, Lu Zhe spoke up, "Let me think about this. Taking leave might be a bit troublesome, but there should be a way. If all else fails, we'll have to have the bodyguard carry your luggage, and you can contact me online. But this is just a last resort."
The young lady's big eyes blinked: "You really want to come with me?"
Lu Zhe nodded and smiled, "Of course I want to go with you, my little princess."
For some reason, Tang Qi felt her heart race when she heard him call her "my little princess." And, in her eyes, Lu Zhe, wearing this new outfit, seemed even more embarrassing.
So Little Rainbow blushed and snuggled into his arms, whispering, "Should we go out tonight? I feel like I've almost fully recovered, I'm fine..."
Lu Zhe: "Of course, no problem."
