Mrs. Gu brought Sheng Tang a dress, a cloak, and a pair of ankle boots.
The dress is the latest style from a luxury brand, the cloak is custom-made by a designer, and the boots are a classic style from another luxury brand.
Sheng Tang thought they all looked great.
Mrs. Gu specially chose sizes that would fit her and urged her to quickly put them on.
Sheng Tang went to change.
A moment later, she came out, and Mrs. Gu’s eyes lit up. The dress is short, making young girls look playful and showing off her legs.
Sheng Tang is not skinny at all, but she is firm and her legs are long and well-proportioned, with no extra fat overall, making her have some definition. Winter is very cold, so Mrs. Gu had a servant find a pair of flesh-colored leggings for her.
The effect is like having bare legs, but it covers the bruised and scratched knees.
"It looks even better than I expected." Mrs. Gu exclaimed, "I knew this skirt would suit Tangtang, and sure enough, it does."
Sheng Tang smiled, "It’s neither big nor small, the tailoring is perfect, Auntie, you have an excellent eye."
The ankle boots had a circle of fur, adding a playful yet slightly wild touch.
Sheng Tang put on the cloak as well.
The cloak is black with a bit of glitter, very large, enough to wrap Sheng Tang entirely, making her appear even slimmer.
"This coat is really slimming." Sheng Tang said.
Mrs. Gu replied, "You have become much thinner. However, this outfit indeed hides any excess flesh."
Gu Shiting sat silently by the side, watching.
He watched Sheng Tang change clothes, watched his mother’s smiling face, and felt very secure.
It seemed like this was his home, with his wife and mother discussing shopping details joyfully.
Winter was very cold, but inside the house was warm, and Gu Shiting’s heart felt even warmer.
"Ting, do you think it looks good?" Mrs. Gu asked him.
Gu Shiting snapped back to reality, "Tangtang looks good in whatever she wears."
Sheng Tang couldn’t help but laugh, "Thank you, senior brother, you really know how to compliment."
Mrs. Gu also laughed.
Then, Gu Shiting added, "But the skirt is a bit short, not suitable for wearing outside, it will freeze her legs."
Mrs. Gu and Sheng Tang laughed uncontrollably.
What kind of straightforward male thinking is this?
Gu Shiting unintentionally showed a cute and silly side, which was extremely amusing.
He didn’t quite understand why the two women were laughing so hard.
But their happiness made him very happy as well.
Once again, the Gu Family villa was filled with laughter.
Later, Mrs. Gu also took a look at Sheng Tang’s hand.
"It’s really nothing, just a little scrape." Sheng Tang said, "By tomorrow morning, it will be completely healed."
Mrs. Gu felt a small flame of anger.
According to Song Chen, Yang Mingming initially did not know that Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting were very close. The reason she targeted Sheng Tang was probably because Sheng Tang had recently been in the limelight at school.
Sheng Tang’s last essay "Cinderella" caused quite a stir and was highly regarded at school.
Yang Mingming bore a grudge because of it.
If she can’t match someone’s skills, she resorts to personal revenge, proving she is petty and her methods are inferior, incapable of achieving great things.
"Don’t be afraid of her." Mrs. Gu said, "If she causes trouble for you, just tell Song Chen, I’ll have him arrange for her to transfer to another school."
"No need, no need, I’m not afraid of her." Sheng Tang quickly replied.
She remembered Gu Jiahui telling her that the Yang Family was very prominent, and even the Gu Family had to show them some respect.
It’s not worth it to make the two families unhappy over a small matter.
"... I’m not afraid of anyone, those little kids’ tricks are so crude they don’t pose any threat to me." Sheng Tang said.
Mrs. Gu replied, "That’s the spirit of a great person, Tangtang, you really are just like me."
Gu Shiting: "..."
He had never seen someone so self-flattering as his mother.
Sheng Tang also laughed out loud.
