Chapter 1487: She Seems to Be Acting Like a Fan-Girl

~7 min read 1,330 words

After finishing her daydream, Jiang Baobao curled her lips and smiled: "You, you should have changed your style a long time ago. With such a good figure, you would definitely look great in a dress."

Xu Xiaoxiao froze.

The next second, she asked tentatively: "Really?"

"Of course. I know a clothing brand whose style is very suitable for you. If you're interested, shall I take you to see it?"

Xu Xiaoxiao was very interested and nodded quickly.

The place Jiang Baobao mentioned was not inside a shopping mall; they had to drive to a small two-story building.

From the outside, this small building looked completely unremarkable.

But once they walked inside, they discovered... it was a world of its own!

The first floor was hung with many uniquely designed clothes, while the second floor was where the designers and tailors worked.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked around curiously, and the staff members had already taken the initiative to greet Jiang Baobao.

Jiang Baobao nodded and arranged: "Help this lady get a dress, the Cuiyan Green one."

"Very well, please wait a moment, both of you."

Soon, the clerk returned holding a long, emerald green dress in both hands.

When the dress was unfolded, Xu Xiaoxiao felt as if she had seen a shimmering green light!

It was too beautiful!

Seeing Xu Xiaoxiao touching the hem of the dress cautiously, Jiang Baobao smiled and said: "Go and try it on."

Hmm...

Xu Xiaoxiao liked it, but she always felt she would look strange wearing it, so she shook her head and refused.

Jiang Baobao, however, pushed her straight into the changing room.

She even helped her change into the dress on the side.

The moment she put on the dress, Xu Xiaoxiao straightened up unconsciously, and her eyes also became gentle.

Looking at herself in the mirror again...

Intellectual and elegant.

This was truly magical; it was clearly just a dress, so how could it make someone change so much?

Xu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, looking at herself in the mirror with novelty.

Jiang Baobao was also looking at the woman in the mirror and praised: "Look, how well it suits you."

"Does it really suit me? It feels... a bit too formal."

"Not at all, you're just not used to it. But why did you suddenly want to change your dressing style?"

Xu Xiaoxiao rubbed her brow with her fingers and replied: "My colleagues at the office always say I dress too much like a man and am not gentle at all, so I thought I'd try a different style."

"Since it's a change of style... then let's change it completely. Come, I'll take you to see some other things!"

Saying this, Jiang Baobao grabbed Xu Xiaoxiao's hand to go pick out new clothes together.

It had to be said, the clothing style here was truly unique; even the dresses that embodied feminine beauty were not made to be flashy.

And Xu Xiaoxiao just liked that kind of simple and grand beauty.

So she couldn't help herself; she bought almost every piece she tried on.

Jiang Baobao didn't stop her, just watched from the side with a smile.

She had previously thought that Xu Xiaoxiao wasn't interested in shopping for clothes.

Now it seemed... every woman had a shopaholic living in her heart.

Tired from shopping, the two sat in a corner on the first floor to rest.

The clerk brought over two drinks.

Xu Xiaoxiao was truly thirsty and drank half of it as soon as she picked up the cup.

After she put down the cup, she heard Jiang Baobao say: "I heard from Xin'ai that you recommended a Beauty Device to her that is especially good to use."

"Yes, I'll give you one another day too."

"Then I'll return the favor; I'll treat you to the clothes you picked out today."

This offer startled Xu Xiaoxiao, and she quickly refused: "That won't do, how much does a Beauty Device cost anyway."

"The clothes don't cost much either. This shop is one I opened with a friend, so I count as half an owner. What's a few pieces of clothing?"

Oh, this...

Jiang Baobao was actually the owner here?

No wonder then; the clerks were very respectful to her, and she seemed very familiar with the place.

Since that was the case...

Xu Xiaoxiao curled her lips and smiled: "Then I won't be polite!"

"Mm, you must bring your colleagues to patronize us more in the future."

"No problem! But come to think of it, why is there no sign outside your place?"

"Because it hasn't officially opened yet. I estimate it will be in the next two days; the sign will be hung up."

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly.

And Jiang Baobao took the opportunity to ask: "Do you have time on Sunday?"

"I'm free for now."

"Then come attend a banquet. I'll have someone send you an invitation card later."

An invitation card?

Usually, only fairly formal events required an invitation card, so...

Xu Xiaoxiao asked curiously: "What kind of banquet is being held on Sunday?"

"The Charity Auction will have celebrities, and there will be delicious food."

Celebrities?

Gourmet food?

Xu Xiaoxiao was wildly tempted!

Then, thinking about how she now also had beautiful clothes...

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and gave her answer: "I'll go!"

Oh my, a banquet, I'm so looking forward to it!

But what Xu Xiaoxiao looked forward to even more... was her date with Jiang Chenghao.

Xu Xiaoxiao had to think first about which one of these new outfits to pick to wear when eating with Jiang Chenghao.

Hmm... Xu Xiaoxiao felt that Jiang Chenghao would like that emerald green dress.

Just now, Xu Xiaoxiao had worn the dress without makeup; if she put on some light makeup and made her hair a bit more voluminous...

The effect would definitely be great!

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but fantasize about what she would look like after her transformation.

And what kind of reaction Jiang Chenghao would have when he saw her...

She fantasized about it so beautifully that the corners of her mouth couldn't help but lift into a smile.

Jiang Baobao had already been watching from the side for a long time.

Seeing that this woman had no intention of coming back to her senses, she reached out and waved her hand in front of Xu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes regained their focus, and then she asked: "What's wrong?"

"I should be the one asking you what's wrong; why are you smiling so happily?"

Ah, did she smile?

Xu Xiaoxiao raised her hand to touch her face; it seemed... she could really feel the curve of her smile.

This discovery made Xu Xiaoxiao immediately feel awkward.

She even stood up and said rather abruptly: "Um, it's getting late, I'll head back first!"

After saying that, Xu Xiaoxiao carried many shopping bags and hurried out of the clothing store.

Jiang Baobao did not follow her; she just sat where she was, staring suspiciously at Xu Xiaoxiao's back.

In her mind, she couldn't help but think of that woman's smile just now...

Hmm...

That smile, why did it look so much like she was acting lovesick?

As soon as this hypothesis popped up, Jiang Baobao immediately shook her head.

She felt that she had thought wrong.

With a personality like Xu Xiaoxiao's, if she liked someone, she would just say it directly.

Jiang Baobao was deeply convinced of her own deduction.

Yet she had no idea that this time, she was completely wrong.

Inside the restaurant—

Pushing the door open and walking into the restaurant, Xu Xiaoxiao adjusted the hem of her dress, feeling a bit uneasy.

Then she looked around and quickly spotted Jiang Chenghao's figure.

Xu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, then stepped in her high heels and walked toward Jiang Chenghao.

Because Xu Xiaoxiao's gaze remained fixed on Jiang Chenghao, she didn't notice that along the way, she had already garnered countless stunned gazes.
