Chapter 97: This Is a Strapless Dress
In the living room, Mr. Lin was chatting with an old friend on WeChat. He noticed Lin Gantang leading Wen Yanqing downstairs and heading straight for the door.
“Dad, we’re leaving,” Lin Gantang said, slinging on her small backpack.
Mr. Lin observed that Lin Gantang had changed her clothes and asked, “Where are you two going so late?”
“On a date, Dad. Otherwise, what should we do, save the earth?” Her daughter’s straightforward response left Mr. Lin speechless.
Mr. Lin grumbled in dissatisfaction, “It’s late at night, what kind of date is this?”
Why was it considered late? The nightlife for young people had just begun, and Lin Gantang retorted, “Dad, you need to keep up with the trend. Auntie Cen has long grasped the essence of square dancing. She dances ballroom dancing with everyone in the villa’s small square every night. Dad, you should go dance when you have free time.”
“Go, go, go, just leave quickly. I’m an old man, what am I going to dance for?” Mr. Lin, who was never too happy to see her, hurriedly ushered her out.
Lin Gantang got into Wen Yanqing’s car, fastened her seatbelt, and said, “My mom isn’t around anymore, and my dad has taken over my mom’s role. Don’t mind his nagging.”
Wen Yanqing couldn’t help but laugh. “I won’t. Uncle is very amiable.”
The villa’s location was excellent, and if they drove, it wouldn’t take too long to reach the food street.
Lin Gantang glanced at Wen Yanqing’s attire. He had just returned from a social gathering, dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He looked very handsome, but he might not be suitable for shopping.
“Let’s go buy some clothes first,” Lin Gantang suggested.
Wen Yanqing thought Lin Gantang wanted to buy clothes for herself, so he was quite surprised when she led him to the men’s clothing section.
“You have quite a few formal outfits. Add a few casual ones,” Lin Gantang said, taking him inside the store. The enthusiastic salesperson immediately approached to introduce them.
With such a vast selection, Lin Gantang didn’t need to ask for Wen Yanqing’s measurements this time. She simply showed him the items she liked. She always felt that everything suited him.
The sharp-eyed and shrewd salesperson noticed her indecision. The handsome man beside her was all smiles, letting her take the lead. The salesperson then suggested, “Miss, the item you have in your hand is also quite nice. It complements your outfit very well. When you two wear it together, you’ll look like a couple.”
Lin Gantang was wearing a loose beige sweater that reached her thighs. She wore it as a dress, paired it with an exquisite bag, and tied her hair into a lively bun.
Upon closer examination, Lin Gantang found that it was indeed a good match. She asked, “Would you like to try it?”
Wen Yanqing smiled and took it to the fitting room.
When he emerged, Lin Gantang’s eyes lit up. She was used to seeing him in a white shirt, but now that Wen Yanqing had changed his attire, he reminded her of his youthful and inexperienced self back when he wore sweaters.
Lin Gantang looked up and helped him adjust his sweater and hat. Her fair and tender hands occasionally brushed against Wen Yanqing’s neck, and his gaze darkened.
“It looks great. Let me go pick out a pair of pants for you,” Lin Gantang said with a smile.
Wen Yanqing’s gaze remained fixed on her.
The couple’s intimacy caught the attention of the salesperson, who was now full of enthusiasm. Young love? Young love was great! She wasn’t afraid to enjoy the benefits of their romantic spark!
The salesperson wore a beaming smile, showing all eight teeth. She was enthusiastic and said, “Miss is right. It would go well with a pair of casual pants. Additionally, we have some new shoes here. Would you like to take a look?”
Lin Gantang didn’t buy any clothes for herself. Instead, she focused on selecting items for Wen Yanqing.
Afterward, she handed the clothes to Wen Yanqing and looked at him with satisfaction. “Now you look ready for the food street. Go ahead and put on the clothes. Just remember to wash the others before wearing them.”
Wen Yanqing was in a great mood. He lowered his gaze and noticed that half of her shoulder was exposed. His gaze darkened as he adjusted her neckline.
“This is an off-shoulder outfit,” Lin Gantang said and pulled it down..
