Reborn with Consumption System-Chapter 363 - 185 All Because of Chen Yanfei!_3

But this was already a very good physique in the conventional sense.

At a height of 185 cm and a weight of 72.5 kg (145 jin), he lacked some muscle mass. However, his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs were all well-defined. Dressed in a slim-fit suit, he filled out the shoulders and appeared extremely slender, very eye-catching.

The reason he was not described as "handsome" was that Han Lie’s overall demeanor indeed surpassed his good looks. A man in a suit is all about presence, angles, and lines, rather than just a handsome face.

Of course, Han Lie’s face wasn’t bad either. He had a strong jawline that particularly suited suits, exuding a very masculine charm.

If he hadn’t looked good, Chen Yanfei and Ding Xiang wouldn’t have let him try on suit after suit. It was precisely because he looked so striking in them that their desire to dress him up was ignited, leading to the current situation.

"Turn around!"

"Lift your arm!"

Chen Yanfei directed him while discussing with Ding Xiang.

The two girls murmured together and finally decided that the overall style should lean towards Italian—not blue or black, but rather something younger and more distinctive.

So, together they presented what they considered the best choice—the suit that had been set aside to be tried on last.

Han Lie, with frustration written all over his forehead, entered the dressing room again.

When he came out, they both clapped enthusiastically, like seals.

"Looking sharp, Brother Lie!"

"Perfect! This is the one, tough guy!" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Han Lie looked at himself in the mirror. Ugh, even though I’m exhausted body and soul, I have to admit, this suit really is sharp.

It was an atypical Armani casual suit with a notch lapel, a slim-fit design, two central buttons, slanted pockets, and a lightweight, finely woven fabric with a subtle sheen.

The color on the label was "gray-blue"—gray predominant, with blue undertones.

But to Han Lie, it looked more like a dark teal, though not quite that dark... Ding Xiang, however, called it peacock blue. It was all rather baffling.

Regardless of its official name, Han Lie really liked the texture and feel of the jacket once he put it on, even if it was just a single top.

Well, it at least boosted my looks and physique by 5 points each.

Clothes really do make the man; that saying certainly didn’t deceive me.

"Let’s pay!"

Ding Xiang went off gleefully to pay, while Chen Yanfei rummaged around, trying to get Han Lie to try on a few more matching shirts.

"No way! Impossible! This is where it stops!"

Han Lie shut her down with three firm refusals.

Consequently, when Ding Xiang returned, she was pouting and looked sullen.

"Only a little over thirty thousand... Mass-produced, ready-to-wear clothes really aren’t good enough."

"It’s great," Han Lie quickly reassured her. "Price doesn’t matter; liking it is what’s most important."

Ding Xiang still seemed a bit unconvinced and looked around.

Then, Chen Yanfei suddenly called over the seller who had been assisting them and nonchalantly pulled a card from her bag, "Please, wrap up that formal suit we looked at earlier for me as well. Here, use my card."

Well now! Several men nearby immediately gazed at Han Lie in astonishment, sizing him up from head to toe, their minds reeling with silent expletives.

Probably every man there wanted to ask: Brother, are you offering courses? How do you manage to be a kept man with such swagger? Not only is one gorgeous woman chasing after you and showering you with gifts, but damn, there are two of them!

A middle-aged man, with a reasonably pretty young mistress on his arm, looked from Chen Yanfei and Ding Xiang back to his own companion, and suddenly, his ’honey’ didn’t seem so sweet anymore.

The one I spend my own money on isn’t even as pretty as the ones throwing money at him... Damn it!

Han Lie, suddenly the public enemy of all men, strutted out of the Armani store with an arrogant, ’I-recognize-no-one’ gait, like a crab.

Sure, it was a bit tiring, but this feeling is incredible... I ask you, who else?!

Strictly speaking, this situation could be interpreted as Chen Yanfei and Ding Xiang not wanting to take advantage of Han Lie, a way of clearly defining boundaries.

However, Han Lie preferred to see it from another angle—both girls were independent and self-respecting. They didn’t want to owe him anything before their relationship was clear, nor did they want to mix other factors into pure feelings. Wasn’t this an expression of beautiful anticipation? In short, they were both good girls; it would be a shame if they ended up with someone else...

Comforted by this thought, Brother Lie, despite a throbbing headache, accompanied them shopping for a good while longer.

To be more specific—he accompanied them until after 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

By the time they reached the ground floor, the two girls were ecstatic, having enjoyed their shopping spree so much they didn’t even want to think about returning to school.

Han Lie thought for a moment and asked with a smile, "Do you two have class tomorrow morning?"

"No, why? What’s up?" Chen Yanfei turned around, puzzled.

"In that case, don’t be in a hurry to leave. I’ll get you a double room at the Ritz-Carlton next door. You can continue having fun and just take a cab back tomorrow morning."

Chen Yanfei’s eyes brightened. "Are you going to keep having fun with us? We were just saying we want to watch a movie!"

"I can’t. I need to go work out."

Han Lie looked regretful on the surface, but inwardly, he was terrified.

These two are something else; they look like they could shop for another five hours without a problem. But my stamina isn’t meant for this!

Chen Yanfei immediately deflated and rolled her eyes hard at him. "If you don’t have time, why are you stringing me along with such nonsense? Two girls like us staying out alone—how could you even suggest such a thing!"

Huh?! Brother Lie’s heart suddenly warmed. "Then how about we get a suite and stay together?"

"Pfft! Little Liezi, you can just get on your knees and see yourself out!"

Chen Yanfei, pulling Ding Xiang along, turned and walked away, not leaving Han Lie the slightest opening. She generally didn’t play along with jokes of this nature.

Shyly, Ding Xiang waved at Han Lie. "Brother Lie, we’re heading back then. You go work out. Bye!"

TSK TSK TSK, so obedient and adorable...

Han Lie saw them to a spot where they could easily hail a cab. While Chen Yanfei was getting into the car first, he sneakily teased little Ding Xiang.

"Don’t be stingy with wearing those stockings, but don’t wear them for others to see!"

Ding Xiang’s little head felt like it was steaming. Flustered, she scrambled into the car, her small hand clutching the shopping bag so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

By the time Chen Yanfei had settled in and turned back, Han Lie had already stepped back a little, waving goodbye to her with impeccable, courtly manners.

"Bye-bye! Think carefully about how you want to celebrate your birthday, and let me know in advance!"

The perfect gentleman.

Thus, Chen Yanfei, ignoring the fuming Ding Xiang, bid a satisfied farewell to the rascal.

"Okay, bye~~~ But you better not buy such an expensive gift again, you hear me?"

Han Lie smirked and suddenly made a gesture as if pulling up stockings. Chen Yanfei’s smiling face instantly froze.

Damn it! He just had to get one last jab in before leaving... How could I ever have mistaken you for a decent human being?!

After fuming for a good while, she glanced aside and suddenly noticed the dazed Ding Xiang. A chill ran down her spine.

It’s over! I can’t hold her back anymore! She’s completely smitten, falling for him so easily, more and more readily...

*****

Ah, yesterday I was just joking with everyone, just shooting the breeze a bit.

Which of my old friends doesn’t know I’m only 21 this year?

I don’t even know how I’ll find a job after graduating next year, let alone where I’d find a girlfriend...
