Zhai Jingkai noticed her gaze and grabbed his open collar somewhat embarrassedly. This subconscious action made him look even more charming.

"Don't you think it's strange?"

Zhai Jingkai, who had been used to wearing black, white and gray since childhood, was very uncomfortable with the turmeric color in the mirror.

"There's nothing strange about it." Le Wan shook her head repeatedly, "It should be said that it is more charming than strange."

Zhai Jingkai smiled.

"What kind of weird adjective is that? Isn't charming usually used to describe women?"

Le Wan held her face in her hands and nodded.

"You're like this, aren't you?"

Zhai Jingkai's ears turned red after being praised so directly by Le Wan.

"So, do you like this style?"

Le Wan thought about it.

"I like them all. Different you have different tastes."

She wanted to taste it.

But the last sentence was too awkward and she was embarrassed to say it out loud.

Fortunately, she can feast her eyes today, and Le Wan is already very satisfied.

At this time, Le's mother had just changed her clothes and pulled her out, so Le Wan had to hang up the phone in a hurry.

"Sir, would you like this royal blue suit?" the salesperson asked Zhai Jingkai while holding the suit in his hand.

Zhai Jingkai looked at the ginger-colored clothes he had just changed out of, hesitated for a moment, pointed and said:

“Pack this for me, too.”

"Well, sir, you have great taste. These suits have been arriving for a while, and you're the first customer I've seen wearing them so well. They look even better than the originals."

The salesperson couldn't help but praise him.

Zhai Jingkai nodded slightly and said nothing.

This is not to his taste, but since Le Wan likes him wearing this outfit, he can find time to wear it for her again.

After buying clothes, Zhai Jingkai went to the gift shop to pick out a few pieces, then left the mall and prepared to return to the company.

Compared with his clear purpose of buying things, Le's mother obviously spent more effort and energy on it.

In order to choose a dress suitable for evening wear, Le's mother took Le Wan to about 20 or 30 stores. After selecting many clothes, they finally chose a dress with good texture. It was a formal dress, lively and energetic.

"Okay, let's pick out a pair of suitable shoes."

So the mother and daughter went to the shoe store.

The two of them finally walked around the mall for three or four hours. Le Wan felt that her legs were no longer her own, so she packed the clothes, shoes, and jewelry she was going to wear tonight.

Le Wan was a little surprised to see that Le's mother was still in high spirits.

"Why are you so energetic?"

Mother Le didn’t think much about it.

"It's nothing. We just picked mine. You haven't picked out what you're going to wear tonight, babe."

"I don't think it's necessary," Le Wan refused, "I brought back a lot of clothes last time, and I haven't worn many of them yet. I think this skirt should suit me very well."

"Why don't you use it?" Le's mother disagreed, "Girls always lack new clothes in their wardrobes, especially for such an important occasion. It's natural to wear the latest style and the best quality new clothes."

Le Wan couldn't persuade her mother, so she had to run with her for nearly two hours before she bought all the things she needed to wear.

It turned out that what Le's mother said made sense, especially when she saw Le Ziyan holding Fu Sui's hand and the two of them walking in wearing gorgeous clothes. Le Wan felt that this family dinner was less and less like a family dinner.

She asked Le's mother angrily,

"Why did she drag Fu Sui along to join in the fun?"

Isn’t it weird for exes and current ones to get together?

Mother Le was holding a glass of champagne.

"There's nothing we can do. Le Ziyan said that we can't think about the past. If you bring your boyfriend to the family dinner, she will bring Fu Sui with you."

"Are you sure they are not here to cause trouble for me?" Le Wan asked.

Mother Le opened her arms.

"Who knows?" But since it's a family dinner, you can't just say that people from the second house are not allowed to attend. But this time, it's obvious that Le Ziyan is not the only one who wants to make things difficult for Le Wan.

Zhai Jingkai changed into the royal blue clothes he had specially picked out today, holding a gift in his hand, and got off the taxi. He saw the huge manor in front of him and was thinking about how to get in when suddenly a figure appeared.

"Hello,."

She stood on the steps with her hands behind her back, looking youthful and lively, leaning slightly towards him.

It took Zhai Jingkai a while to recognize her. She was one of Le Wan's cousins. He nodded and said:

"Hello."

"I'm Le Zi'an. I've been here to greet you."

Zhai Jingkai thought that the Le family was afraid that he didn't know the way, so they specially sent a guide to lead the way. Unexpectedly, before he even raised his foot, Le Zian had already jumped down from the stairs. When he was still a few steps away from him, Le Zian suddenly tripped with his left foot and fell directly towards Zhai Jingkai.

"Ah!" Le Zian was about to pounce on Zhai Jingkai like a frightened rabbit.

There are stairs above and below where he is standing. In this case, in order to prevent the other person from falling and rolling down the stairs, he usually chooses to catch the other person instead of dodging.

But Zhai Jingkai's way of thinking was obviously different. The first thing he thought of was that he had something in his hands and had no time to hug her, so he cleverly moved to the side, and in front of Le Zian's shocked gaze, he stretched out one foot and placed it horizontally on the stairs.

As a result, Le Zian, who was thought to be about to throw herself into his arms, saw Zhai Jingkai dodge and was about to hug the steps with her face, but a foot stretched out and blocked her body.

This is why, although Le Zian fell down, he did not fall down completely.

Fortunately, she did not hit the ground face first and roll down the stairs, but unfortunately, in order to reduce the impact, she subconsciously used her knee to block the stairs, resulting in a broken knee.

Le Zian looked at Zhai Jingkai in disbelief.

"How could you do that?"

At such a critical moment, he actually dared to dodge. Isn't this a gentlemanly behavior?

How could such a tasteless man have such a face? How could he make so much money? Le Zian needed help to understand.

Zhai Jingkai became even more confused.

"Didn't I save you?" Then why didn't she thank him but blame him instead?

"What's wrong?" Le Wan and others heard the noise and came out. They saw Le Zian sitting on the ground crying with his knees hugged, while Zhai Jingkai stood aside as if nothing had happened.

Le Ziyan was startled and shouted:

"Zhai Jingkai, did you make An An cry? She is still young. If she has done something wrong and offended you, just tell us brothers and sisters. There is no need to target her."

Le Wan glanced at the chattering Le Ziyan, thinking that this pair of real and fake daughters might cause trouble again today. Without even looking at Le Zian who was sitting on the ground, she immediately went to pick up Zhai Jingkai.

In the end, Zhai Jingkai, who had been silent all the time, saw her actions and quickly stopped her.

"The stairs are a bit slippery. Don't come down. I'll go up."

Le Wan was stunned for a moment, then she understood what had just happened. She looked at Le Zian with a faint smile, and then smiled at Zhai Jingkai.

"It's okay. Aren't you down there? I'm sure you'll catch me if I fall."

Zhai Jingkai had no choice but to walk up to her, put the gift in his left hand into his right hand, and hold Le Wan's hand with the other hand.

“Why does falling sound like a good thing?”
