Lu Jinyan was very satisfied with Chuchu's cooperation and picked out several outfits for her, including cloaks, capes, shoes, and so on. She also bought several outfits for herself. Isn't it said that a woman's wardrobe is always missing one outfit?

She now feels that it makes a lot of sense. She already has a lot of clothes in her online space, but she still can't stop.

Just as I was about to pay and leave, I suddenly remembered that there was still someone at home. Although he wasn't part of her household and wasn't under her care, he was still living there, and everyone else in the family had new clothes, but he didn't, which seemed a bit inappropriate.

Moreover, the system is right. Mo Xuan's injuries are almost healed. If he leaves before his favorability rating is maxed out, all my efforts will be in vain. I still need to flatter and coax him properly. Maybe I'll succeed?

So Lu Jinyan picked out two new outfits for Mo Xuan. She didn't know Mo Xuan's clothing size, so she could only describe his figure roughly. Fortunately, the shop owner was very professional.

After picking out the right size for her, Lu Jinyan happily took a bunch of things home. When Lu Jinyan got back, Mo Xuan was sitting in the courtyard reading a book.

The book was a collection of storybooks that Lu Jinyan bought when she was bored. Since Mo Xuan had contacted Chu Li, he no longer needed to go out. Feeling bored, he picked up a book to read at random.

The grapevines on the trellis had almost all their leaves fallen off, and the late autumn sun was exceptionally warm. He sat on the steps under the trellis, leaning against the pillar behind him, with one leg bent and the other casually lying flat.

Sunlight shone on his profile. When Lu Jinyan returned and saw this scene, she was completely stunned. Sure enough, good-looking people look good no matter what. Mo Xuan's appearance was so good that it was almost against the heavens.

She's starting to have second thoughts about giving him back to the female lead; he's so handsome, she wants to keep him for herself...

"Mo Xuan! We're back! I bought you a gift!" Lu Jinyan shook her head, clearing her mind of all those random thoughts, and pulled Chu Chu toward Mo Xuan.

Mo Xuan had already noticed her when she arrived at the door, but he didn't show it.

"Quick, quick, Mo Xuan, come and see, I bought you new clothes!" Lu Jinyan said with a fawning expression as she took out the clothes.

"new clothes?"

"Yes, the weather is getting colder, and I noticed your clothes are quite thin. Today, Chu Chu and I went to buy winter clothes, and we bought you two outfits as well. Come and see if you like them!"

Lu Jinyan had great confidence in her own aesthetic sense; she believed that Mo Xuan would definitely like the clothes she chose.

"I'm not cold." Although Mo Xuan said that, he still obediently walked over.

"Oh dear, you still need to wear clothes even if it's not cold. Look at all you're wearing, you don't even have anything to change into. Come on, try these on and see if they fit. If they don't, I'll go get you a change."

Lu Jinyan ignored Mo Xuan's refusal, stuffed the clothes directly into his arms, and then pushed him into the house.

"Go and give it a try, we'll wait for you here!"

Mo Xuan was holding the clothes, and before he could refuse, he was pushed into his room. Looking at the clothes in his hands, he felt something was touched in his heart. From childhood to adulthood, no one except his mother had ever bought him new clothes.

The fabric of the clothes in his hands was only average in his opinion. He was born with a weak body, so his mother and father favored him and always thought of him first when there was something good.

So whether it was food, clothing, housing, or transportation, he was in a better position, even better than his older brother. His mother and father went to great lengths to ensure his health.

Until he grew up safely, perhaps it was because this was always how they behaved, so he got used to it, or perhaps his parents really felt that he was more suitable than his older brother.

In short, when his mother said she wanted to pass the position to him, she was very happy. His father even said that after all this hard work, his mother could finally relax and enjoy some time alone with him.

But I never expected my brother to...

Mo Xuan sighed, stopped thinking about those things, and obediently changed into the new clothes that Lu Jinyan had bought for him. He had to admit that the owner of the clothing store was really professional; the clothes fit Mo Xuan perfectly, as if they had been tailor-made for him.

Mo Xuan changed into both outfits in a row, and Lu Jinyan's eyes almost sparkled with excitement. Mo Xuan's own clothes were all black, and although the ones Lu Jinyan chose for him were also black, they weren't pure black. One outfit had a black base with gold embroidery, and the other had a black base with red trim.

The pure black color looked somewhat lifeless, and coupled with Mo Xuan's own aloof and unapproachable demeanor, this all-black outfit made him look even more frightening.

The original text once mentioned that Mo Xuan preferred black, so when she chose clothes, she also chose black to please him and make him happier, which would make it easier to increase her favorability.

Although the fabric wasn't great, the style was nice, and Mo Xuan liked it quite a bit. After all, this was the first time she had given him something besides that little red stone.

"Ding! Mo Xuan's favorability +1, current favorability 79!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully raised Mo Xuan's favorability to 79%. Reward..."

Lu Jinyan ignored the system's announcement and thought to herself, "As expected, playing to their preferences worked well! I've already gotten a point! Twenty-one more to go, I'll keep trying!"

Lunch was a hot pot made by Lu Jinyan. The vegetables in the backyard had been growing well these past few days, and she was also in a good mood today, so she decided to cook a hot pot meal. The hot pot base was bought from the system store.

She has accumulated a lot of points now, and she buys things from time to time to appease the system and prevent it from nagging her to hurry up and complete tasks.

Mo Xuan's tastes were similar to hers and Chu Chu's, so there was nothing to hesitate about. He took out some meat from his storage bag, cut it up, and arranged it on a plate. He also went to the system shop to exchange for some tripe, meatballs, and other items.

A large table was prepared with plenty of ingredients, and the three of them enjoyed a warm hot pot meal under the grape trellis. Surprisingly, Mo Xuan and Chu Chu were of the same mind and did not ask about the unfamiliar dishes on the table.

Instead, they chose to keep quiet and eat heartily, not for any other reason than that it was so delicious. This was their first hot pot meal in their lives, and they were both very satisfied.

Seeing the two people engrossed in their food, Lu Jinyan smiled. Sure enough, no one could resist the temptation of hot pot!
