My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 88 - 072 Alcohol doesn’t intoxicate, tea does (2-in-1)
Chapter 88: 072 Alcohol doesn’t intoxicate, tea does (2-in-1)
Xu Chang’an, while preparing tea, looked at his wife in a floral green dress and after a moment said, "Miss, go change your clothes."
Yun Qian nodded, got up and walked towards the boudoir. She paused and then turned back to ask, "What kind?"
"Something you can wear out."
"Got it."
"..."
Xu Chang’an noticed Yun Qian seemed a bit disappointed when she turned, and his eyes twitched slightly.
He had mentioned that wine and tea are two different things.
Wine brings joy, tea clears the heart, it seems that Miss Yun didn’t take it to heart.
Xu Chang’an sighed softly, his gaze falling on the Fire Stone of the wall stand in the room. Before coming here, he went to Steward Hall to report, he knew that Qinling had sent better Fire Stones, but he didn’t mention it, Yun Qian didn’t bring it up, which was normal... Yun Qian never took the initiative in such meaningless matters.
Steward Qin had said they didn’t quite resemble a couple.
Xu Chang’an introspected about his lack of initiative, possibly even being too passive...
Could it be that all his courage was used up when he confessed to Miss Yun?
He’s not such a pure-hearted person.
Even if he planned to be more proactive, he still had to entertain Senior Wen, and he had a pile of cultivation matters awaiting. At such times, inviting her to go boating or do something else... Xu Chang’an couldn’t bring himself to do it.
——
Not long after, Yun Qian came out from the boudoir wearing a white dress, with a hint of black lining underneath, the glow from the Fire Stone reflecting on her dress absorbed the brightness, projecting a subtle coolness.
This scene was beautiful; like the light of the bright moon and the stars, the most harmonious pair, the most beautiful scenery.
She walked into the tea room and asked Xu Chang’an, "Going out?"
"Going out for what? I said tea time."
"Then why did you ask me to change clothes?"
"A guest will be coming soon." Xu Chang’an said, lifting his gaze to look Yun Qian up and down, his pupils trembling, unable to hide the admiration in his eyes.
Having good appearance is important, but the saying that clothes make the man rings true. Yun Qian’s colorful dress was somewhat ridiculous but exuded more of an unworldly coolness.
Now in a black and white long dress, her true elegance was revealed.
At this moment, Yun Qian exuded a quiet grace; the dark waist cincher was broad, cinched tightly, adding to her tall stature, yet upon closer inspection, one could feel a restrained beauty.
The black and white mixed with Yun Qian’s temperament achieved a weak balance.
Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, as if she had just emerged from a bath like a fairy.
Xu Chang’an suddenly realized, in the past Yun Qian’s clothing style on the island was flamboyant, but since being close with him, she became increasingly restrained.
Xu Chang’an knew he wasn’t the one who drew the spotlight. His personality and ambitions made it certain he wouldn’t become someone too conspicuous.
If Yun Qian were still how she was initially, staying by her side would feel mismatched.
Thus, Miss Yun lowered herself to become the current refined and subtly radiant form.
"?"
Yun Qian looked at the tea sets beside Xu Chang’an and blinked: "What are you looking at?"
Xu Chang’an looked at this girl who was slightly taller than him, and said: "Sometimes, I think, indeed still doesn’t match."
"Doesn’t match? I think so too." Yun Qian thought and said: "I’ve been learning ’Dianzhuang’."
She uses makeup to become more likable to Xu Chang’an, to be a match for him.
"Are we talking about the same thing?" Xu Chang’an asked, feeling he needed to work harder to be a match for his wife.
"Should be the same thing." Yun Qian nodded, she had always been changing, learning ’Dianzhuang’, aesthetics, all to make Xu Chang’an like her more.
Xu Chang’an realized Yun Qian’s intentions.
His feeling of not matching Yun Qian wasn’t about inferiority, but his motivation to move forward.
Miss Yun should not have such thoughts.
It must be his lack of success affecting her.
"... Forget it." Xu Chang’an went into Yun Qian’s boudoir, took out a tassel hairpin, gently gathered Yun Qian’s long hair, combing some up, leaving the lower hair down, then took a silver ribbon and softly tied a loop around the end.
Yun Qian didn’t question or resist, just sat there letting Xu Chang’an do her hair, and shortly her aura had slightly shifted.
Simply styled into a bun, the black-as-ink long hair quietly draped down to her waist as usual. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Compared to the previous cold aloofness, Yun Qian now appeared more gentle, as this bun style was mostly used by married women or those with suitors to indicate they already had someone in mind.
——
"Why the bun, it’s somewhat heavy." Yun Qian said.
"Because it calls for a couple’s toast, with ’A Cup of Spring’ tea contemplating lengthy thoughts." Xu Chang’an sat beside Yun Qian and said, "Like this... we sit together, so no one would mistake us for other relations."
In one glance, one could see they were a couple.
"For Miss Wen to see?" Yun Qian asked.
"What does it have to do with Senior Wen." Xu Chang’an sighed, thinking this was just his own wish, like having an appetizer with wine... seeing Miss Yun, who obviously is his wife, certainly makes the tea more enjoyable.
"Enjoying tea."
Having Yun Qian seated, he used the tea spoon to scoop the tea leaves from the tea holder into the pure white Jade-like teacup; evenly scattered, hot water poured from the pot straight into the cup, the tea leaves inside the cup rolled with the water waves, immediately, the aroma of tea came rushing to one’s face.
