After the meal, Lu Nanze continued to lead the way and drove to a shopping mall nearby to buy his clothes.
Qiao Lian did this with the mindset that she was about to complete her mission. Her intentions were just to pick something… anything… and hand it over to Lu Nanze.
Upon entering the shopping mall, she scanned her surroundings.
Eventually, Lu Nanze led them to an upscale bespoke fashion store.
They sold clothing of an immensely broad range of styles, it was exceptionally brilliant and varied.
As this was a shop of bespoke tailoring for men, the attendant took a step forward and looked at Lu Nanze and Shen Liangchuan. He asked with uncertainty, “How are you today? May I know which gentleman we might be serving today?”
Lu Nanze stepped forward and said, “Me.”
Qiao Lian’s gaze swept across the shop and suddenly, her eyes lit up. “That suit isn’t bad!”
She was referring to a suit hanging right in the middle of the shop.
Its swallowtail design added a dash of mischief to the formality of the suit.
Moreover, certain ties could add more color to the formal suit, making it stand out among others.
Qiao Lian dashed over to have a close look.
Lu Nanze and Shen Liangchuan exchanged a glance and followed.
Studying the suit, Lu Nanze said with approval, “Yes, this is not bad.”
Whatever she picked out for him would be great.
However, as he was thinking this, Qiao Lian excitedly turned around to grab Shen Liangchuan’s arm, saying, “I think this suit would look especially good on you. Go try it on and let me have a look, hurry!”
Lu Nanze was flabbergasted.
He frowned and, without thinking twice, he pointed at the suit and said to the attendant, “I’d like to have this.”
The attendant immediately looked troubled. “Mr. Lu, this is a limited edition suit, so we only have one in our shop.”
Lu Nanze came up to Qiao Lian and said, “I—”
Before he could get started, Shen Liangchuan handed the suit to the attendant and said to him, “I’ll take it.”
Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes at once and said, “I think we are here today to shop for me?”
With a raised eyebrow, Shen Liangchuan said, “So? Who made the rule that I’m not allowed to make any purchases?”
Lu Nanze scowled.
Qiao Lian defended Shen Liangchuan and added, “That’s right. And this suit doesn’t go that well with you. However, I do feel…”
A crafty look suddenly flashed across her eyes. She reached for an alternative outfit on the rack and held it out to Lu Nanze, saying, “You would look better in this.”
He looked at the suit given to him and gritted his teeth with anger.
The colorful shirt completely contradicted his image.
But looking up, he saw the mischief in Qiao Lian’s eyes and at once, his anger died down.
He stood there staring at her steadily.
Her teasing, for some reason, made him feel that he was finally back to where he had been in the past.
His smile gradually disappeared as his expression turned icy.
Immediately, he held Qiao Lian’s chosen outfit out to the attendant and said, “Wrap this up.”
His response shocked her.
It was obviously out of spite that she had picked the ugliest outfit in the shop for him.
But he had bought it just like that?
This was not the Lu Nanze that she knew.
She gave a cough and said nothing.
After both Shen Liangchuan and Lu Nanze paid for their items, they headed back to the mall’s underground car park, each man holding their own purchase.
They had parked side by side.
And now they were to part ways.
Without saying much, Qiao Lian made a move to get into the car.
But at this point, Lu Nanze suddenly reached out to grab her wrist.
