When Lin Xiaowan brought the gift to Xiao Han and told him that she would not be coming back in the future, Xiao Han felt a little disappointed and even tried to persuade her to stay.
However, Lin Xiaowan was not persuaded by him. She only gave him the gift and expressed her gratitude.
“You’re too polite. There’s no need for this.”
Lin Xiaowan naturally insisted that he accept the gift. She said, “No, 1 feel extremely sorry for troubling you for so long. Moreover, I bought this for you. I don’t have any use for it.”
With this, Xiao Han finally accepted the gift. After that, he told her that she could look for him if she ever needed help.
Lin Xiaowan thought he was only being courteous because of the gift so she only nodded perfunctorily.
It was not difficult to set up a studio at all. In just two days, Huo Zheng told Lin Xiaowan she could use the studio. He also prepared all kinds of drawing paper and canvases for her and installed professional lighting.
The easel had been moved to the studio. There was a small desk at the side, and a daybed near the window so she could rest. There was also a shelf filled with all kinds of art-related books.
Lin Xiaowan was quite satisfied with how it turned out.
After the studio was completed, the driver would pick Hong Minhua up two days a week. When she came over and saw the studio, she nodded in approval.
Huo Zheng decided to take a day off and go shopping with Lin Xiaowan. Initially, he planned to ask his assistant to make arrangements and get designers to send the clothes to the house. However, Lin Xiaowan thought that was boring so she pestered him and asked him to go shopping with her.
Huo Zheng naturally did not refuse her, especially when he saw how much she wanted it. Moreover, it had indeed been a very long time since they had gone shopping together. However, it was completely beyond his expectations that his sister-in-law, Qiao You’an, would also join them.
When Qiao You’an learned from Lin Xiaowan that Huo Zheng wanted to change the way he dressed, she was very excited and decided to join in the fun.
When he saw Qiao You’an at the entrance of Burberry, he could not help but stiffen.
“Sister-in-law.”
Qiao You’an came alone since her two sons had to go to school. However, when the two children heard she was going shopping without them, they were naturally unhappy.
Lin Xiaowan let go of Huo Zheng’s hand and happily ran to Qiao You’an’s side, holding Qiao You’an’s arm.
Huo Zheng walked behind them, looking like an aloof bodyguard.
Although Lin Xiaowan went shopping often, she still found it difficult to adapt to the shopping experience in a luxury store. Instead of trying on the clothes, they picked out the clothes they liked before models would model the clothes for them.
Huo Zheng stood next to the two women and acted like a human pillar. He allowed Lin Xiaowan to select all kinds of clothes and measure them against him. If they liked it, the sales assistant would note it down and let the model change into the clothes.
Qiao You’an casually picked out a baseball cap, thinking that it would suit Huo Cheng. When she saw how enthusiastic Lin Xiaowan was, she said teasingly, “Previously, you weren’t so enthusiastic when I invited you out shopping. Look at how enthusiastic you are now that you’re shopping for Huo Zheng.”
Previously, Lin Xiaowan had casually downloaded a game of dress-up on her phone. She did not think too much of it and felt that it was good to kill time. However, today, she really felt the fun of playing dress-up.
Apart from Burberry, they also went to many other stores.
In the end, Qiao You’an teased Lin Xiaowan again. “Wow, Xiaowan, you complained after walking a few steps when we went shopping. However, you don’t seem tired even after walking 10,000 steps today, huh?”
In fact, this was normal. This was the difference between doing something one was interested in and something one had no interest in. One would have no patience at all when doing something one was not interested in. On the contrary, no matter how hard it was, one would enjoy it if one was interested.
“Let’s see if you still dare to act like the next time you come out with me,” Qiao You’an warned jokingly.
Lin Xiaowan smiled sheepishly and said, “I don’t dare, 1 don’t dare!”
When they were home, Lin Xiaowan made Huo Zheng try on the clothes.
The 1.9-meter-tall man felt slightly uncomfortable when he put on his new clothes. He was wearing a black T-shirt, a dark brown vintage jacket, black pants, and a pair of brown boots, revealing his wide shoulders and long legs. Just a casual glance was enough to attract people’s attention.
Lin Xiaowan’s eyes lit up when she saw him. She clapped her hands and exclaimed, “You’re so handsome!”
Lin Xiaowan circled him, studying him. She thought he looked fresh. The way he was dressed made him look gentler, and his aura softened a lot as well.
Lin Xiaowan kept praising him. They had shopped for half a day, and it seemed like it was all worth it. She quickly instructed him to change into the other clothes so she could have a look. She had bought shirts and sweaters in different colors such as dove grey, white, and yellow-and-blue. She also bought casual khaki pants for him.
As time passed, Huo Zheng no longer felt uncomfortable. He began to feel as though he was back in school. After all, when he was in school, he did not have to dress rigidly. His habit of dressing formally only started when his parents passed away in his third year of university and he had to take over Huo Corporation.
Every time Huo Zheng changed into a new set of clothes, Lin Xiaowan would take a photo and send it to the Huo family’s group chat so Huo Cheng and Qiao You’an could have a look.
Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao were also in the group chat, but they were not good at typing. As such, they would usually send voice messages or call directly. The two children were not very interested in what Huo Zheng was wearing. Instead, they were more interested in asking when they could play with Lin Xiaowan.
Lin Xiaowan’s excitement lasted until she went to bed at night. She praised him again, “You’re like a walking clothes rack. You look handsome no matter what you wear. Don’t just wear suits all the time.”
Huo Zheng asked, “Since I’m so handsome, can 1 be Miss Lin’s boyfriend?”
“Ah?”
Lin Xiaowan was briefly stunned.
“You haven’t agreed yet.”
Only then did realization dawn on Lin Xiaowan. Previously, she had told him to pursue her when she was in the hospital. She also told him to confess to her again.
Lin Xiaowan laughed before saying arrogantly, “That’ll depend on Mr. Huo’s performance.”
Huo Zheng stared at her for a moment before he lowered his head to kiss and asked, “What do you think of this performance?”
When he spoke, his lips were very close to Lin Xiaowan’s ears. She felt that his magnetic voice seemed capable of bewitching people. She quickly shrank back and pushed him away as she said, “That’s not what I meant!”
Then, Lin Xiaowan continued to say, “You’re being a hooligan now!”
“What if 1 insist on being a hooligan?” Huo Zheng asked with a chuckle.
Lin Xiaowan pretended to look troubled before she finally said, “Then I guess I can only let you be Miss Lin’s boyfriend. That way, you won’t be a hooligan.” Huo Zheng’s smile widened immediately. He felt that the woman in his arms was really cute..
