FMLWRS Chapter 165

Certainly, she couldn’t wear such a simple outfit to gatherings like that.

 

Moreover, it would be her first time meeting her in-laws as the “ugly daughter-in-law”. She couldn’t afford to be careless.

 

She only has so little money in hand, and a dress needs to be customized in advance. Her bank account had only one million, which may not be enough for a good dress at the moment.

 

It was a bit troublesome.

 

While Luo Xi was feeling worried, there was a knock on the door outside.

 

Thinking it was Leng Minhang who had returned, she hurriedly went out and opened the door with a smile. To her surprise, it was a maid holding an exquisite gift box.

 

“Young Madam, this is the dress Young Master asked someone to deliver to you.”

 

Luo Xi’s eyes brightened. It seemed like what she needed had arrived just in time!

 

She quickly looked downstairs but didn’t see Leng Minhang. She frowned and asked, “Your young master hasn’t come back yet?”

 

Normally, when she finished class, he would have almost finished work and returned home. Why was he taking so long today? Could something have delayed him?

 

“No, he hasn’t.” The maid smiled and replied, “Perhaps the young master is still busy. Before you came here, he rarely used to come back.”

 

Luo Xi’s heart stirred slightly and she looked at the maid in surprise. “You mean, before I came here, your young master seldom came home to rest?”

 

The maid didn’t notice the change in her expression and instinctively answered after hearing her question. “Yes, that’s right. Before you arrived, he rarely came back. Sometimes he’d stay late at work. Although we’ve worked here for a long time, the number of times we saw the young master was few. But ever since young madam came, it’s like the young master has transformed. He comes home every day, and he comes back early too.” The maid spoke happily.

 

A glint of excitement flashed in Luo Xi’s eyes. Does this mean she is special?

 

She took the gift box and couldn’t wait to open it in her room.

 

Ly is the current favorite brand among young girls. It is unique. Each dress was crafted and designed by Jenny, a very famous designer both domestically and internationally. It is really sought-after and rare!

 

As she unwrapped it, Luo Xi found the dress to be a perfect fit. The only downside was that it was a bit too conservative with its round neckline and long sleeves.

 

Luo Xi preferred dresses with a V-neck, especially when paired with a necklace. It simply looks stunning.

 

However, the overall design of the dress is still excellent. The fabric felt incredibly comfortable to touch. Although the purple color is more difficult to carry, it exudes an elegant and noble vibe.

 

This kind of dress is indeed suitable for occasions with older people who usually disapproved of revealing and flamboyant clothing.

 

Tomorrow, she will be meeting many people.

 

After comparing the dress in front of the mirror for a while, she took numerous photos. It wasn’t until dinner that she changed out of the gown.

 

Heading out, Leng Minhang still hadn’t returned.

 

Luo Xi couldn’t shake the feeling that something was amiss, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed normal. As the night approached, the other party still hadn’t returned. She became a bit anxious and decided to call him.

 

After a couple of rings, the man’s cold voice finally answered, “What’s the matter?”

 

Luo Xi felt that these two words coming out of his mouth sounded particularly cold.

 

It wasn’t his usual way of talking. Her sensitive nature senses that something is wrong.

 

“Are you not coming back tonight?” Luo Xi furrowed her brow and asked. Noticing his silence, she quickly added: “I mean, we’re supposed to go to your family’s place tomorrow. I just wanted to know when you plan to go, so I can prepare accordingly.”
