After the seamstress master measured Su Xiyan's waist, she moved her hands up and started measuring the bust.
In contrast to the slender waist was the towering peak.
Chen Shuo was curious about what size Su Xiyan's figure was.
But even when he pricked up his ears, he couldn't hear the size reported by the seamstress.
As expected of a high-end boutique, the experienced female seamstress would never reveal a female customer's private measurements. Instead, she held the measured tape measure and showed it to the assistant in charge of recording measurements.
The assistant took a look and made a record.
Looking at the direction of the assistant's handwriting, it seemed to be two numbers - 36.
After the numbers, there was also a vertical line and half a circle? Put together, it looked like a capital letter - D.
Chen Shuo immediately understood, not too big or small, just right!
It was said to be a perfect figure, not excessive at all!
After taking measurements, Su Xiyan also chose the style and fabric, as well as some small details of the workmanship.
Chen Shuo sat on the sofa, playing with his phone, a little bored.
Although the clerks in this store were all young men.
However, Su Xiyan didn't even glance at them.
After all, these men were full of powdery air, and really couldn't attract Su Xiyan's attention.
Chen Shuo took a look at the extremely effeminate male clerk, and thought that they probably all had boyfriends already. Looking at himself in the mirror, handsome yet full of masculine aura a man should have, Chen Shuo suddenly felt quite confident.
Inwardly, he was also inflated beyond words: Su Xiyan would be jealous, which showed she had good taste.
The ball was the day after tomorrow. Tang Zhiyuan's order was quite rushed.
Custom tailored evening gowns took time. Fortunately, the styles Su Xiyan chose were relatively simple and elegant. With her looks and figure, even wearing a sack would make her look good.
With Su Xiyan's magic of money, all the master-level tailors in the store made time to work overnight to make evening gowns for Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo.
After settling the matter of the evening gowns, Su Xiyan finally relaxed a lot.
After a whole morning of hassle, she was a little hungry.
"What do you want to eat?" Chen Shuo had just gotten into the car and hadn't started the engine yet when he asked Su Xiyan where she wanted to eat.
Su Xiyan thought about it and said, "Let's eat something light! What I eat these next few days will determine the condition of my skin on the night of the ball."
"I don't want to become a big oil field that night."
In Chen Shuo's memory, it seemed Su Xiyan had never looked oily.
Girls who were extremely disciplined were actually quite scary, because they knew very clearly what they wanted and would work hard to achieve it, without ever letting themselves relax.
Su Xiyan was such an unassailable disciplined girl, but she also had a soft spot.
The daily chats between her and Chen Shuo were like those of a longtime married couple.
Eventually, the two chose a Cantonese restaurant.
The fresh ingredients and lightness of Cantonese cuisine suited Su Xiyan's requirements very well.
During the meal, the two chatted casually.
Chen Shuo asked while gnawing on a chicken claw, "It's just a ball between companies, why do you seem to attach so much importance to it?"
Su Xiyan drank soup impassively: "I take everything I do seriously. Either don't do it, or do it to the utmost when I do."
Stupid little brother! It's because I have to take you along! That's why I attach so much importance to it.
Su Xiyan kept these words to herself. She didn't know when would be the best time to tell Chen Shuo.
She also didn't know whether she should say it at all.
"Chen Shuo, attending this ball may be a bit dangerous, are you still willing to go with me?"
"Ah? Dangerous? How dangerous?"
Su Xiyan lowered her voice and said, "According to the demon hunters' intelligence, there may be vampires with considerable combat power inside."
Chen Shuo thought about it very seriously: "So the danger level is quite high too?"
Su Xiyan: "Well, so if you don't want to go, there's still time to back out."
Unexpectedly, Chen Shuo answered directly: "The evening gown has been custom made, if I don't go, wouldn't I miss the chance to wear such a handsome gown?"
"What was the name of that company again? Haiyuan Group right? I, Chen Shuo, will be the most dazzling guy at their company ball."
Su Xiyan: "......"
This matter could be considered an oversight on Su Xiyan's part. She meant to protect Chen Shuo well, but when she needed a dance partner for the ball, Su Xiyan's first reaction was to think of Chen Shuo.
It was just a ball with suspected vampire appearances, as long as it wasn't the Vampire King, Su Xiyan was still very confident that she could protect Chen Shuo well.
What's more, protecting someone she cared about was also a kind of happiness. Su Xiyan felt that she should enjoy the process very much.
"Chen Shuo."
"Hmm hmm??"
"Now that you know there are risks in attending the ball, why do you still want to go?"
Chen Shuo didn't pause eating while answering the question: "Because you asked me to go!"
"Wherever you ask me to go, I'll just go! Why think so much about it?"
The seemingly casual words caused huge waves in Su Xiyan's heart.
As long as it was a place Su Xiyan asked him to go, regardless of whether there was danger to life, he didn't even think about it and just followed her directly.
What trust was this?
Su Xiyan felt as if something was blocking her chest.
In the future, she had to be nicer to Chen Shuo.
If there was a chance, how should she express her true feelings?
How should she break through this seemingly thin but as vast as the ocean relationship between them?
Su Xiyan was immersed in feeling touched for the entire meal, thinking about this problem.
Chen Shuo, on the other hand, ate with great relish. The Cantonese restaurant Su Xiyan found was too high-end! So the food had very fresh ingredients! The chefs were also awesome, bringing out the best flavors of the ingredients.
After the meal, Chen Shuo's stomach was round and full.
Su Xiyan ridiculed: "Your evening gown was custom tailored, don't eat so much these two days that you can't fit into it."
Chen Shuo didn't mind: "Don't worry, even without clothes, my deadly charm is still handsome."
Under the table, Su Xiyan raised her foot, originally wanting to step on Chen Shuo again to stop him from being so arrogant.
But remembering the disregard for life and death that Chen Shuo had just moved her with, Su Xiyan's raised foot slowly lowered again.
Just then, Chen Shuo's foot moved slightly to a different position.
Su Xiyan's foot that she put down happened to rub against Chen Shuo's calf, slowly sliding all the way down.
Chen Shuo's calf felt the rubs from Su Xiyan's beautiful leg,
and instantly felt goosebumps all over his body.
Was Su Xiyan giving...an unambiguous hint?
Chen Shuo's eyes widened as he looked at Su Xiyan.
Faced with the rubs from such an extremely beautiful woman, Chen Shuo's words came out haltingly:
"This...isn't appropriate right?"
"Wouldn't it be...progressing too quickly??"
