Reborn with Consumption System-Chapter 679 - 292: Taking Director Dai to Shop_2
There have been many girls deceived by scumbags. Most of them can pick themselves up and live a normal life; only a very few become world-weary, self-destructive, or go crazy.
Even if such girls don't encounter scumbags, they are prone to extremes; they are, in fact, unconsciously using repeated hurts to stimulate the missing part in their souls.
The old Han Lie didn't realize this, but the current Han Lie saw it all too clearly.
That's why he didn't stop Xi Luting from going to save Fang Feifei. Some situations that seem unreasonable might not actually be what they appear.
You are not the fish; how can you know the joy of the fish?
As a beneficiary, the most important thing for me to do is… shut up and lie down!
Xi Luting drove fiercely to the nearest Sheraton. Then, with one look from her, Han Lie cheerfully summoned the lobby manager to book a presidential suite.
Then they went to the gym, where Xi Luting planned to show off her fitness results to that dog of a man.
Next, oh, I can't write that, can I?
Anyway, the next morning when Han Lie woke up, Xi Luting and her little maid had disappeared without a trace, already gone back to school early. He, however, had to get out of bed holding his waist to take Yu Yun shopping.
Alas, so fucking stupid…
It's not the act of flirting with Xi Luting that's stupid; it's that I wasn't willing to chew that last piece of gum, so I didn't seize the initiative and ended up being humiliated by her!
Han Lie gritted his teeth hatefully, pondered for a while, and finally determined—
The little minx is on a roll!
Her consistent fitness strategy had finally paid off with the replenishment of her core Strength.
Yet I still regarded her with old eyes, so careless and underestimating. How could I not be defeated?!
And just judging by her Physique, she had gone through a huge transformation since the beginning of school.
It was mainly the growth of her butt and legs; they had obviously increased in dimension. She was slim but not bony, with astonishing curves.
Come this summer, when she wears shorts or skinny jeans, she'll pretty much be a standard siren.
—You can say she's slim, but you can't complain she's a stick; she's meaty where it counts. Every drop of sweat has paid off!
Xi Luting's total release not only refreshed Han Lie physically and mentally but also filled him with anticipation for the future.
So much so that when Yu Yun timidly asked Han Lie to pick her up at the school gate, he readily agreed.
「It was the weekend.」
Assistant Liang had given the driver, Xiao Cheng, a break and came to pick up the boss personally from the hotel.
They then turned around towards the humanities building entrance, picked up the extravagantly dressed Yu Yun amid many peculiar glances, and settled her into the backseat of the luxurious Mercedes.
Once in the car, Yu Yun's "green tea" act naturally kicked in.
"Brother Lie~~~ What's the matter with you? Yesterday, when I asked you which outfit looked good, you only replied once after several messages... I know you're busy, but I don't care! If I'm embarrassed today, it's all your fault!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's all my fault!"
Han Lie was in a good mood, so he didn't snap at her, casually agreeing.
Then he turned to appraise her outfit…
PFFT!
Sorry, sorry, I'm usually very professional, but I just can't help it looking at you now…
Yu Yun's attire today was completely different from her usual campus wear.
Maybe because she valued the occasion too much, she deliberately wore a black leather miniskirt with an asymmetrical wrap design and a row of copper buttons on the side.
She wore black stockings underneath, which made her fleshy thighs look snug.
On her feet, she wore a pair of brown high boots common in those days.
Up to this point, everything was fairly normal.
But her upper body was covered with a high-neck sweater with a heart-shaped cut-out at the chest, made of pure white wool. Then, with a slight bow and lean forward, the cut-out revealed a little bit of black lace and the deep cleavage visible between the patterns…
It was spicy, alright, but a bit too tacky.
Combined with her slightly poufy, center-parted long hair and a rather out-of-place Swarovski swan necklace hanging outside her sweater...
And because she was either cold or shy, she wore her usual long red down jacket over it all…
How to describe it?
A small-town barbershop girl, all dolled up and ready to entertain clients?!
Pure, yet not entirely so; flamboyant, but not thoroughly. In short, utterly twisted.
Naiyun blushed deeply at Han Lie's laughter, her hands twisted tightly together, her head almost buried in her chest.
But her true strength lay in her mental fortitude, outclassing Fang Feifei by several orders of magnitude.
Despite the shyness, despite the humiliation, she still managed to act normally.
"I know I'm unsophisticated, but there's nothing I can do. My savings were hardly ample to start with, and you've taken so much already... Anyway, just handle it. I don't care anymore!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Wow, I have to say, this side of Naiyun is actually pretty cute…
And she spoke the truth. Dressing appropriately requires vision and taste, which are both underpinned by money.
Without money, you see a lot but buy little, and you surely wouldn't dazzle anyone when it mattered.
Han Lie suddenly saw his own past clumsiness and naivety from his early days after graduation reflected in her, and his gaze became deep and distant.
He didn't tease Yu Yun any further and said softly, "It's fine, there's still time. I'll take you to get a new outfit as a reward first."
Yu Yun's peach-blossom eyes immediately sparkled with delight, and she sweetly cajoled Han Lie, "Really, Brother Lie? HEE HEE~~~ You're so kind!"
From the looks of it, if it weren't for the armrest between them, she would have almost pounced to give him a kiss.
But it was all a facade.
Seducing men was something that came naturally to Yu Yun.
Don't believe it? Just watch her move to adjust her sweater—ostensibly pulling it up to cover more, yet with each movement, isn't that subtle suggestion somehow more irresistible than being straightforward?
Unfortunately, all her preparations had been effortlessly crushed by Queen Luting without her even realizing it.
Han Lie's gaze passed over her chest; far from being captivated, he remained cool and pure.
You think these small provocations are enough to test me, Liu Xialie? Ridiculous!
"Assistant Liang, let's get going."
Han Lie tapped the back of the seat casually, and Assistant Liang, who was driving, immediately started the car, stifling all of Yu Yun's subsequent moves.
Oh no!
If Brother Lie doesn't take the bait and won't make a move, what should I do?
Naiyun pondered and decided to wait and see how things unfolded.
She differed from Tang Xintian in that she had even less confidence in herself and placed Han Lie on such a high pedestal that she was in no rush to achieve anything.
A little progress is fine; I'm playing the long game!
So she started a serious conversation, asking about Han Lie's plans for the day.
"Brother Lie, what exactly are you going to buy? For yourself, or…"
"Two small items, as return gifts."
Han Lie answered casually, putting Yu Yun at ease.
The last time, Han Lie had purchased a 2.88 million yuan Cartier bracelet right before her eyes, nearly electrocuting her with shock on the spot—that feeling, she both craved and dreaded.
She craved it because the thrill of such extravagant spending was intoxicating, even if the gift wasn't for her. Just being a witness satisfied her fantasies about luxury goods.
The dread was naturally because such delights were tantalizing yet out of reach.
If it happened again, who knows if I would go crazy.
Small gifts are good. Return gifts typically aren't too cheap, but they also wouldn't be too extravagant.
Thus, Yu Yun started giving suggestions enthusiastically, "Who are these return gifts for? You brought me along because I can offer some advice, right? Is it for a woman? If her Physique is similar to mine, I can help try them on~~~"
Suppressing his laughter, Han Lie nodded gently.
"Yes, that would be helpful."
Yu Yun, gleeful, cupped her cheeks in her palms and blossomed into a smile like a peony flower. "It's no trouble at all! No matter when, I am always willing to help Brother Lie unconditionally!"
Han Lie looked at her intently, his expression a mix of amusement and seriousness.
Really?
If that's the case, then I'll have to entrust the company's legal representative role to you, huh… President Yu!~~~
