Ye Wanwan’s personality is the quirky and eccentric type, so her clothing style tends to be more lively and cute. It’s quite rare to see her in a sexy and charming spaghetti strap maxi dress that accentuates her figure.
Shen Yi just stared at Ye Wanwan with intense eyes, until she stopped about two or three meters in front of him. Only then did Shen Yi snap back to reality, feigning nonchalance.
"How is it? Does it look good?" Ye Wanwan let go of the hem of her dress, twirled in front of Shen Yi, then looked towards him.
Shen Yi carefully scrutinized Ye Wanwan from top to bottom, seemingly assessing in his mind whether the gown suited her.
After more than ten seconds, Shen Yi asked earnestly, "The weather is getting colder. Aren’t you cold dressed like that?"
Ye Wanwan frowned slightly, puzzled, and said, "Is today’s banquet being held outdoors?"
Shen Yi was taken aback, then said in a stiff tone, "Indoors."
"Then how could it be cold," Ye Wanwan reassured herself, as she disliked outdoor banquets, especially in winter.
If it were outdoors, some girls who feared the cold would choose to wear a heavy coat over their gown, but others would prefer style over warmth, braving the chill in a thin dress.
Ye Wanwan, on the other hand, desired both style and warmth.
Shen Yi regretted his earlier excuse, which was obviously too feeble, but he didn’t want Ye Wanwan attending in such attire for others to ogle.
Shen Yi wanted Ye Wanwan to change into something else, but noticed an employee nearby holding another dress with a different style—one was an off-the-shoulder, and the other was a spaghetti strap.
Shen Yi could even imagine how she’d look wearing it.
He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you want me to help you choose?"
"Uh..." Ye Wanwan was somewhat hesitant, but what was with Shen Yi’s expression of eager anticipation?
In the end, Ye Wanwan agreed rather reluctantly, "Alright then!"
Shen Yi put away his phone and got up, walking straight towards the area where Ye Wanwan had been selecting her gown earlier.
The store didn’t have a wide variety of gowns, mainly the latest seasonal styles. Shen Yi quickly glanced over the dresses and then noticed an A-line long-sleeve satin gown.
"How about this one?" Shen Yi turned to ask for Ye Wanwan’s opinion.
Ye Wanwan slightly furrowed her brow—not that the gown wasn’t pretty, it was just standard without anything particularly alluring to her.
But Shen Yi seemed to think it was quite nice and asked the staff member to give it to Ye Wanwan to try on.
Ye Wanwan went to try on the dress and when she came out, Shen Yi meticulously inspected her from head to toe. Although he was still not completely satisfied with the neckline, it was much better compared to the previous one.
"It looks very good," Shen Yi complimented sincerely.
Ye Wanwan glanced at herself in the mirror, thinking it seemed alright. Seeing Shen Yi’s satisfied demeanor, she decided to trust him this time.
"Then let’s go with this one," Ye Wanwan told the staff member.
The staff member responded with a smile, "Okay, let’s go do the makeup now."
While Ye Wanwan went to get her makeup done, Shen Yi didn’t sit in the resting area. Instead, he followed along and stood to the side, watching her as the makeup artist applied her makeup.
"Go sit over there and wait," Ye Wanwan said, feeling self-conscious about being watched, plus the makeup wasn’t going to be done quickly.
"Alright," Shen Yi agreed but didn’t move. He stayed there, watching the whole time.
