Xia Qingwei was a bit stunned. When did she become the main character?
But one of Wang Juhuai’s sentences hit Xia Qingwei’s heart directly.
Even if it was just for Lu Man’s sake, she also needed to go.
Xia Qingwei was not someone who liked being in the limelight. She was used to being low-key, but for Lu Man, this time, she decided that no matter what, she could not appear weak.
Xia Qingwei nodded her head heavily. “Alright, then, I’ll follow you there.”
However, what was with the future Mrs. Wang?
“It’s a dinner on Friday night, right?” Lu Man asked.
“Yes.” Wang Juhuai nodded.
“Mom, you don’t have any suitable clothes, right?” Lu Man said.
Xia Qingwei noticed only then that she really didn’t seem to have any.
She’d never had the chance to participate in this sort of events, and naturally, she’d had no occasion to need such clothes.
“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to shop and find a suitable dress for you,” Lu Man said.
“Alright.” Xia Qingwei agreed very readily.
Going with Wang Juhuai to participate in a gala dinner, she could not embarrass Wang Juhuai, and she needed to make Lu Man look good as well.
So she very readily agreed.
She changed her clothes, took her bag, and came out.
“I’ll go with you two.” Wang Juhuai had also changed his clothes and was excited to go.
Xia Qingwei laughed. “Us two girls shopping will be very troublesome. What will you do even if you follow us?”
“I’m going to be in charge of swiping my card,” Wang Juhuai said. “Furthermore, I want to go shopping with you.”
“…” Lu Man said helplessly, “Then aren’t I going to be the third wheel?”
“No, no,” Wang Juhuai hurriedly said. “I’m in charge only of using my card to pay. What is currently fashionable for women right now, I have no idea, so what Xiao Xia looks good wearing, you have to be in charge of judging.”
And so, the three of them went out together to buy clothes.
Wang Juhuai parked the car, and Lu Man brought Xia Qingwei to the boutique to look around.
Wang Juhuai very understandingly followed behind, leaving space for Lu Man and Xia Qingwei.
Seeing how Lu Man was holding on to Xia Qingwei’s arm and chatting with her, he was following behind like a little assistant.
Yet he was still smiling. He was very happy with this and was not feeling like anything was wrong at all.
Xia Qingwei smiled at Lu Man, patted the back of her hand, and exclaimed, “I haven’t shopped with you in so long.”
“In the future, if there is a chance, then I’ll leave it to Uncle Wang,” Lu Man said, teasing.
Xia Qingwei glared at her, embarrassed. “You even dare to tease your mom!”
“I’m not teasing, I’m serious. Mom, Uncle Wang is really not bad,” Lu Man said in a low voice. “I did not think that he’d treat me well because he loves you. He is taking every chance to be with you, even coming with you for shopping.”
“How could he not like you? If he treats you badly, I won’t agree to being with him!” Xia Qingwei said in a low voice.
“Yes, yes, I know. But in fact, I have always been mentally prepared as long as he is good to you. To demand that he be kind to me as well is too much. After all, people have their own selfishness.” Lu Man laughed and said, “But Uncle Wang can do this. I am really surprised and moved. This shows that he really loves you. Otherwise, why doesn’t he mind me at all?
Xia Qingwei also smiled happily. “Yes. That’s why I don’t regret my decision.”
“Mom, you need to keep a hold on a good man. You’ve already missed each other for over 20 years, don’t delay it any longer. If you’re a bit later, there’ll be more regret,” Lu Man said in a low voice.
Xia Qingwei was moved by her words and could not help but turn back to look at Wang Juhuai.
Wang Juhuai did not look impatient at all and was still looking at her with deep emotions even when she was not looking.
