1581. Chapter 1581 Joint Examination 25

Tonight I slept soundly, sleeping straight through until broad daylight.

The next day, when I got up, I put on the clothes Shangguan Yun bought for me.

Putting them on and standing before the mirror, I could see they really were different.

Whether it was style, demeanor, or appearance, everything seemed to have changed.

"Very pretty..." Shangguan Yun said from behind me.

I smiled and said, "Indeed, the Buddha relies on gold adornment, people rely on clothing."

"Yeah, look at my wife—just a little dressing up and she's this pretty, far prettier than those stars." Shangguan Yun kept staring at me as he said.

"You're talking nonsense again. If anyone heard that, they'd surely laugh at me. How could I compare to those stars? I'm just a yellow-haired girl." I said with a giggle.

Before we left for school, Shangguan Yun handed me the bag.

Suddenly it occurred to me: if I took these clothes home, what would Mom think?

"No, Shangguan Yun, if my mom asks where these things came from, what should I say?" I asked.

"Um, just say I bought them for you." Shangguan Yun said with a smile.

"What nonsense—we can't let him know these are from you buying them for me; if he found out, he'd surely suspect." I thought this excuse was too melodramatic, really too melodramatic.

"What does it matter? This week I'll go home with you, and I'll say I've eaten at your place before, so I'm buying you clothes, and I'll let you tell your mom I'm your adopted brother—brother buying clothes for sister is perfectly natural." Shangguan Yun came up with this melodramatic excuse again.

Although it's melodramatic, it seems to work pretty well.

Otherwise, I really couldn't think of a better plan.

PS: Cough cough cough.... Shangguanjia is rich, 'rich enough to rival a country' is just a nickname, why worry so much? Also, it's just a student's clothing, over a thousand, isn't that expensive? How could a high schooler need to wear tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands worth of clothes? Here they say Yangyang is exaggerating, there they say shabby. To me, clothing over a thousand is already quite expensive. After all, I'm a high schooler; if someone were out in society, saying wearing a thousand‑dollar brand is shabby would still be passable. Moreover, Yangyang has never worn clothing over a thousand; the most is the skirt my mom bought me this summer for 689 yuan. Do you high schoolers really wear thousands or tens of thousands of clothes every day? Yangyang doesn't believe that we Chinese are now especially rich, that high schoolers all wear tens of thousands of clothes. Or if it's a single item—if now high schoolers at school are all wandering around wearing tens of thousands of clothes, then Yangyang can only admit that we from the poor mountain valleys have come out, and we've never seen high schoolers wear such expensive clothes. Moreover, if a classmate of yours just has one skirt 【if a skirt costs over a thousand, would you feel it's ordinary? If it were me, if my friend wore a skirt over a thousand, I'd definitely say her skirt is super expensive. Maybe I'm just behind the times.
