“If it wasn’t for your mother, I wouldn’t have spent this money.”
Qin Zhiyou, with his legs crossed and hands spread out, seemed to be giving her a serious accounting, “My mom only took you to buy clothes. Even if you didn’t spend any money, she couldn’t have forced you.”
“Come on, she’s your mother and she asked, how could I refuse?”
Qin Zhiyou nodded, leaning back in his chair, “I’m being completely logical. First of all, these clothes are for you to wear. Moreover, my mom didn’t force you to pay. Even though it’s a lot of money, it’s your personal choice. You’ve got no right to demand reimbursement from me. Otherwise, you should ask Ms. Yang and see if she’s willing to foot the bill.”
Lu Weixi was at a loss for words. She knew this wasn’t right, but she didn’t know how to argue back.
She glared at the pile of stuff on the bed, the more she looked at it, the angrier she got. She grabbed them and began to head towards the trash can.
She’d hardly taken two steps when a casual voice echoed, “If you insist on me paying, I’m not against it.”
Lu Weixi stopped in her tracks. She turned back to see Qin Zhiyou sitting on the couch, toying with his fingers and not even looking at her. He wore an indifferent expression, “How about this, I’ll give you ten thousand each time you wear them.”
Lu Weixi was a little stunned. For a moment, she couldn’t make out what Qin Zhiyou truly meant. His tone was so casual, his expression so detached, he didn’t even glance at her. His words could easily lead to misunderstanding. She put the clothes down and furrowed her brows, “What do you mean?”
Qin Zhiyou, still without looking up and leaning against the couch with his legs straightened, settled into a more comfortable position, “Don’t get me wrong, I’m not interested in you. I’d rather reject my mother staying here long-term since it’d mess up my plans.”
He seemed sincere in that. If Yang Mogui’s around, she would definitely make him return home. How could someone like Qin Zhiyou stand for that?
“Like I said before, we should pretend to be affectionate over the next two months to alleviate her worries sooner. The more affectionate we appear on the outside, the less you’ve worn these clothes she bought specifically for me to see. She might check the room, you know, and if she opens the door and sees you never changed clothes, what is she going to think?”
He did make sense, and Lu Weixi couldn’t refute this. But the idea of her donning these clothes… lace, transparent, leopard print, it made her scalp tingle thinking about it.
She instantly shook her head, “How am I supposed to wear these clothes. These… these undergarments…”
Qin Zhiyou pursed his lips. He knew it would be hard to convince her to wear a sexy bra, but those revealing dresses on top could work.
He purposefully frowned, a look of “why are you so dumb” on his face, “I’m not telling you to wear all of them. Occasionally wear one of the outer garments at home just to appease my mom, don’t wear the inner ones. It’s not like she’s going to strip your clothes off to see your underwear.”
Lu Weixi slightly knitted her eyebrows. She felt like something was off… Could it have been a trick by Qin Zhiyou? Was he tricking her into wearing these clothes?
Sensing her resistance, Qin Zhiyou casually added, “This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a woman in these clothes. Besides, I’ve seen you without clothes countless times.. What’s there to be shy about?”
