“Whoa! Little Long! You’re just taking advantage of the situation!” Chu Tingting let out a sigh of relief when she heard Huang Xiaolong’s request. After all, watching a movie wouldn’t cost much, and as far as eating goes… well, whether it’s a fancy dinner or a $10 fast food meal, who’s afraid!
“Alright! Little Long! I agree! You’re helping me out this time, so I’ll treat you to ten meals and ten movies!” Chu Tingting nodded seriously. “But, Little Long, you mustn’t give your game away tonight. Don’t mess it up, understand?”
“Don’t worry, pretty teacher. with my intelligence, your classmates won’t see through me,” Huang Xiaolong declared confidently, thumping his chest.
After dinner, the two left the western restaurant.
The afternoon was sunny, and there were a few hours left before the class gathering.
“By the way, Little Long…” Chu Tingting suddenly began to look Huang Xiaolong up and down.
“What’s wrong, pretty teacher?” Huang Xiaolong asked curiously.
“Uh… Little Long… What I mean is… You see, I can’t control how you dress. However… with the reunion happening tonight… It seems, it seems a bit out of place, right? Hehehe~~~” Chu Tingting laughed awkwardly.
“Oh! Pretty teacher, are you suggesting that I should change my outfit?” Huang Xiaolong reacted.
In fact, Huang Xiaolong had long thought about buying new clothes. His current outfit, including his shoes, all carry different formations and are clean and comfortable. However, wearing the same clothes all the time does get a bit tedious.
He had been planning to go shopping for new clothes with Song Yuru, but her family had faced some issues which had delayed their plans.
Today, everything was falling into place as if heaven-sent.
“Little Long, rest assured, I’ll cover the cost of your clothes. I’ll buy them for you.” Chu Tingting asserted.
“This…” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “Pretty teacher, that would embarrass me…”
“Enough, enough, Little Long, I’m asking for your help today, and naturally, I’ll handle the clothes. I certainly can’t ask you to pay now, can I?” Chu Tingting rushed. “We should hurry to pick out an outfit. Little Long, there are lots of clothing stores on this pedestrian street, I’ll take you!”
Apart from eateries, this pedestrian street had the most clothing stores.
However, they mostly carried common brands, not the high-end men’s wear like Versace, Armani, or Dior.
They only carried brands like Cabbeen, GXG, Jack & Jones… The slightly pricier brands were no more than St. GOFI, BOSIDENG.
Being new to her job and also having to pay rent and eat, Chu Tingting naturally couldn’t afford much.
Thus, she brought Huang Xiaolong to a Cabbeen store.
In the end, Chu Tingting chose a plain round-necked T-shirt, khaki casual pants, a pair of casual leather shoes, and a belt for Huang Xiaolong. The total bill came to around 2000 dollars, making her feel a little pained.
As the saying goes, “clothes make the man”. Dressed in new clothes, Huang Xiaolong looked like a different person!
With his height of 178cm and a well-proportioned body, he could pull off any outfit.
Gazing at Huang Xiaolong, Chu Tingting was slightly in awe.
The Huang Xiaolong of that moment had strikingly handsome features. The clean face occasionally broke into a carefree smile. Underneath his long and slightly curled eyelashes, were a pair of eyes as clear as morning dew, and a prominent nose…
He truly had the look of a charming young man now!
However, in his eyes, there was a sense of irreverence and audacity that these young idols lacked, a mature look that occasionally slipped through. Even a hint of a domineering air.
‘I…I’m dizzy… Little Long, Little Long…once he discarded those farmer clothes…He…he’s so dashing! His looks are off the charts! How did I never realize before that Little Long could be so handsome?’ Chu Tingting found her heart racing, pounding like the beating of a startled deer’s hooves, she took a deep breath. ‘Chu Tingting! Stop daydreaming! Little Long is only pretending to be your boyfriend today, and besides, he is your student! You can’t harbor these fangirl notions! Get a hold of yourself!’
“Pretty teacher, does this suit look good?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a playful grin.
“Um…” Chu Tingting feigned seriousness and responded, “It’s so-so, barely passable. All right, let’s settle for this one.”
Having said that, Chu Tingting hurriedly went to swipe her cards for payment. The cashier and the store assistants all looked at Chu Tingting with a strange glint in their eyes.
It was only when Chu Tingting and Huang Xiaolong left the store together that they heard faint whispers from behind—”Never would have thought, a goddess like her would actually go for a farmer… But after he changed his clothes, his attractiveness is not bad.”
Chu Tingting then took Huang Xiaolong to get his hair done, which made Huang Xiaolong look even sharper and more handsome.
With time almost up, Chu Tingting said to Huang Xiaolong, “All right, Little Long, let’s head over to the reunion now. Remember, don’t call me teacher. You…you can call me Tingting.”
“Sure, Tingting.” Huang Xiaolong’s response was smooth. “Tingting, shall we just drive over?”
“Okay.” When Chu Tingting heard Huang Xiaolong call her ‘Tingting’, she felt a strange sensation in her heart. “Oh, and Little Long, there’s something else I need to remind you about… You see, social trends are not exactly healthy these days, and reunions have all become venues for putting on airs and posturing… Almost everyone who attends a reunion will try their best to show off, to express their own sense of superiority… In short, there are lots of snobs. Little Long, if you hear any unpleasant words later, don’t take them to heart, don’t stoop to their level. Okay?”
“Oh, Tingting, I understand.” Huang Xiaolong gave Chu Tingting a bright smile that nearly made her swoon, his eyes twinkling flirtatiously.
The Shu River Spring Entertainment City.
The Shu River Spring Entertainment City was a super entertainment city that combined dining and leisure, located in the prime area of Binhai’s new @cheng@ district. The people who came here to spend money weren’t exactly the rich and mighty, but they were definitely well-off. The variety of middle-to-high-end brand cars and SUVs in its parking lot spoke volumes.
Huang Xiaolong drove to the parking lot of the Shu River Spring Entertainment City, parked the car, and got out with Chu Tingting.
Looking around, Huang Xiaolong saw that the main building of the Shu River Spring Entertainment City was a high-rise building of more than ten floors, with a large open-air teahouse and barbecue stalls on the ground floor.
They also had lush vegetation, ivy, coconut trees, French plane trees, camphor trees, iron trees… along with some swings and such.
The environment was indeed very comfortable, giving one a sense of tranquility amidst chaos.
Just as Chu Tingting was leading Huang Xiaolong to the bottom of the building, she spotted several women conversing.
“Huh?” Chu Tingting called out suddenly. “Qi Lili, Tian Fang, Chen Juan…”
“Wow The great beauty of the school, Chu!” Hearing Chu Tingting’s voice, the women turned around and greeted her with smiles.
Old classmates meeting up naturally led to chit-chat.
Finally, one by one, Chu Tingting’s female classmates turned their eyes to Huang Xiaolong.
“Great beauty Chu, who’s this?” A round-faced woman with a few freckles, winked at Chu Tingting and asked.
