The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop-Chapter 148 - 21: Prestigious Families

Tang Wanwan’s mouth twitched violently. She reached out her finger, pointing at Yan Bin, who looked like he was facing death unflinchingly: "Alright, alright, I’ll take you there. You win!"

"I knew our Tang Wanwan is the best." Yan Bin grinned.

"Idiot. I don’t want to talk to you, I fear it’ll lower my IQ." Tang Wanwan rolled her eyes at Yan Bin, turned around, and left.

Yan Bin huffed at Tang Wanwan’s back, then dramatically flipped his head to turn away, only to meet Dong Xiao’s beautiful eyes right as he did.

"Mr. Dong, Dong, Dong," Yan Bin stuttered, oh god, Mr. Dong Xiao saw him acting so dumb, it’s over, it’s over!

"Mr. Yan Bin, do you have time now?" Dong Xiao’s face didn’t show any sign of it, but he asked this politely.

"Yes, yes, of course. Ah, calling me so formally, you can call me Yan Bin, can I call you by your name, Mr. Dong?" Yan Bin was so excited that his tongue almost tangled.

"Sure." Dong Xiao nodded, being called Mr. Dong did sound strange. Using the full name was much better. As for his original name, it had been buried deep in his heart for many years and he had never thought of it. That name, burdened with far too much... doesn’t deserve to exist. Dong Xiao was a name given to him by his master, he liked it and cherished it very much. As for his original name, he wouldn’t forget or abandon it either. One day, he would rightfully reclaim that name, and then, he would only have the name Dong Xiao from that day forward!

"Dong... Xiao?" Yan Bin looked at Dong Xiao in front of him, hesitatingly calling out. For some reason, in that moment, Dong Xiao felt very sad and wistful, but more than that, there was a fiery feeling of being reborn from the ashes.

What the hell, Yan Bin wanted to smack his head. How could he have such a weird feeling? What’s with this being reborn from the ashes, why does he have such peculiar sensations?

"Ah, Yan Bin, if you have time, I’d like to discuss the requirements for the series of clothing designs." Dong Xiao snapped back to reality and said with a smile.

"Alright, alright, let’s go to the study." Yan Bin watched the smile on Dong Xiao’s face, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside because Dong Xiao’s smile was too perfect, perfectly unreal, the smile didn’t reach his eyes at all. Having roamed around outside, he’s put on such a perfect façade often and seen many such smiles. But with Dong Xiao smiling at him like that, Yan Bin felt a bit stifled inside.

"Okay, I hope we can decide on the clothes as soon as possible." Dong Xiao nodded.

"No problem, once we’ve discussed it, I can finalize everything tonight." Yan Bin assured confidently.

"Thank you." Dong Xiao expressed his gratitude.

"No, no." Yan Bin hurriedly waved his hand.

"What are you guys doing?" Kong Hou’s voice suddenly interjected, "What are you doing standing in the hallway? We’re going skiing tomorrow, I need to go out shopping with Tang Wanwan, do you guys have anything you need?"

"No, just don’t buy too much." Dong Xiao felt a bit helpless.

"I won’t! We’ll just take everything with us." Kong Hou squeezed between Yan Bin and Dong Xiao. When he reached Dong Xiao, he stomped hard on Dong Xiao’s foot.

Dong Xiao’s mouth twitched: "You little..." He almost described Kong Hou in human terms as a naughty child, but considering Kong Hou’s intelligence, if he said that, Kong Hou would surely retort immediately that she wasn’t a naughty child, she was a dragon child. So, the words caught in Dong Xiao’s throat.
