Chapter 321 - Too Pretty to Shop

Ye Fan waved his hand to interrupt Lu Xiaoman and said, “It’s fine.

Just an extra pair of chopsticks.”

Yet, was it really just an extra pair of chopsticks?

Ye Fan had already foreseen that it would definitely be lively in a bit.

Since Mo Xiaoyan was coming over to mooch a meal, Ye Fan had the waiter come over and ordered a few more dishes.

The Vienna International Hotel was also in Liujiachang District, so in less than fifteen minutes, Mo Xiaoyan had “hurriedly” arrived at the dining table.

“Heehee, brother-in-law!” Mo Xiaoyan called out to Ye Fan with sparkles in her excited eyes, “Wow, brother-in-law, you’re so handsome today.

Did you get all dressed up for a date with my sister?”

A countless number of black lines instantly popped up on the back of Ye Fan’s head.

This little niece’s attitude had changed too drastically, a complete one eighty.

Upon hearing Mo Xiaoyan’s words, Lu Xiaoman blushed with both embarrassment and shock, utterly puzzled by the sudden one-eighty change in Mo Xiaoyan’s attitude towards Ye Fan.

“Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?!” Lu Xiaoman couldn’t help but scold.

Mo Xiaoyan’s pretty face was full of innocence as she replied, “I’m not talking nonsense.

Brother-in-law really does look handsome today!”

Lu Xiaoman, unable to help her embarrassment, stood up and pulled Mo Xiaoyan to sit down next to her, whispering in her ear, “Although I don’t know why your attitude towards Ye Fan has changed, don’t keep calling him brother-in-law, it’s embarrassing.

If you keep calling him that, I’ll really get mad!”

Seeing Lu Xiaoman speak so seriously, Mo Xiaoyan could only respond sullenly, “Got it.”

Ye Fan watched Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan whispering intimately with a smile, the two women looking exactly alike and both exceedingly beautiful, making for a very pleasing sight.

As the twin sisters whispered together, Mo Xiaoyan turned to face Ye Fan and giggled, “Sis…uh, I mean that’s not right, my sister told me not to call you that.

From now on, I’ll just call you Ye Fan; you won’t mind, right?”

“Call me ‘bro,'” Ye Fan said, a bit annoyed that she had previously wanted to break him and Lu Xiaoman up.

Mo Xiaoyan laughingly replied without a care, “Okay, I’ll call you ‘Bro Fan’ then.”

Ye Fan nodded in satisfaction.

Then, the three of them started to dine.

“Sis, you two are going shopping after dinner, right?” Mo Xiaoyan asked Lu Xiaoman.

Lu Xiaoman’s face turned slightly red and said, “Yes.

You should go back after you finish eating.”

“No way!” Mo Xiaoyan protested, “You promised to go shopping with me last night.

You can’t just ditch me for your…cough, Bro Fan!”

Lu Xiaoman’s face was even redder as she said in a shy voice, “What are you talking about?

Didn’t I say we could go shopping tomorrow night or the night after?”

“Why not tonight?

We’re all eating together anyways.

After dinner, we could go shopping together; it would be nice,” Mo Xiaoyan said lightheartedly, then turned to ask Ye Fan, “Bro Fan, you wouldn’t mind, would you?”

“Hehe, not at all,” Ye Fan said, thinking to himself that apparently walking around with a pair of top-class twin beauties should be quite a nice experience.

Mo Xiaoyan immediately seized the advantage and said, “Sis, did you hear that?

Bro Fan doesn’t mind.”

Lu Xiaoman could only respond helplessly, “Alright then.”

Today was the day Ye Fan was to officially confess his feelings to her.

She had wanted to enjoy a romantic and cozy day out with Ye Fan—shopping, playing, watching movies, and such—but now her little sister had become an almighty third wheel, and the atmosphere was utterly ruined.

During the meal, the mood wasn’t somber; in fact, it was quite lively, because Mo Xiaoyan knew how to keep things interesting, completely unlike Lu Xiaoman in temperament.

Since they were going shopping shortly, Mo Xiaoyan had left after eating for only about half an hour.

After paying the bill, they prepared to go shopping and had to make a quick visit to the restroom first.

Entering the tidy and spacious restroom, Lu Xiaoman immediately asked, “Little sis, how did you suddenly become supportive of me dating Ye Fan?”

She had been suppressing this question in her heart with great difficulty.

“Hehe, is it really that sudden?

I don’t think so,” Mo Xiaoyan said.

“Haven’t you always told me about Ye Fan’s many profound and positive qualities?

So, I seriously considered it and finally realized that Ye Fan is truly excellent.

Of course, I couldn’t chase away such an outstanding brother-in-law.”

Lu Xiaoman was skeptical and thought this explanation was pure nonsense.

She asked, “Have you had any private contact with Ye Fan?”

“No way.

I used to not be able to stand him, so how could I have had any private contact with him?

Besides, he’s your boyfriend.

How could I possibly get in touch with him privately?” Mo Xiaoyan immediately denied it.

Lu Xiaoman was a bit exasperated at Mo Xiaoyan’s tangential answers, and said, “Where did that come from?

I’m asking if you’ve ever gone behind my back to cause trouble for Ye Fan?”

“I couldn’t beat him even if I tried; how could I find trouble with him?” Mo Xiaoyan said guiltily.

Seeing that Mo Xiaoyan hadn’t given a direct answer, Lu Xiaoman guessed that her sister must have gone to Ye Fan with trouble and had been won over by him, now obediently calling him brother-in-law.

Thinking of this, she felt a little guilty towards Ye Fan.

Fifteen minutes later, they were on a pedestrian street where colorful neon lights were everywhere and crowds surged like waves, with streams of passersby.

Ye Fan walked on the pedestrian street with Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan, Lu Xiaoman was in the middle, Ye Fan on the left, Mo Xiaoyan on the right, and they intimately linked arms with Lu Xiaoman.

As soon as Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan appeared, they caused a sensation.

Countless people stopped to watch, and many even turned to follow along and observe.

As their guardian, Ye Fan felt immense pressure; countless eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred shot at him like arrows, nearly piercing him to shreds.

After walking a short distance, Lu Xiaoman finally couldn’t get used to being followed and watched by so many onlookers while shopping.

Therefore, Ye Fan and the others turned back toward the parking lot.

Once they reached the parking lot, although there were still many strangers looking at them, it was after all a parking lot with far fewer people than on the street, significantly reducing the pressure on them.

Regretfully, Lu Xiaoman said to Ye Fan, “There are too many people, let’s not go shopping tonight.

I’m not used to being watched like a monkey.”

Mo Xiaoyan immediately opposed the idea, “Sis, this is our first time shopping together; we can’t be defeated without even starting.

Besides, we’ll face this kind of situation a lot in the future.

You’re not going to avoid shopping with me from now on, are you?”

Ye Fan also didn’t want to end their shopping outing quite so soon and suggested, “Let’s not shop here; let’s go to a mall instead.

If we go to a more upscale shopping center, we probably won’t encounter the situation we just experienced.”

Shopping in an upscale shopping center, where customers are mostly well-to-do second-generation rich kids, government officials’ kids, and successful individuals, meant encountering people who were more concerned with keeping up appearances and wouldn’t follow them around.

Moreover, these people had seen plenty of beautiful women and wouldn’t be too amazed by Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan’s looks.

At this suggestion, Mo Xiaoyan’s eyes lit up with excitement.

“Right, right, let’s go to an upscale shopping center.

We can buy nice things without worrying about being surrounded and stared at.”

“Alright then.” Though Lu Xiaoman was not fond of upscale shopping centers, feeling that the things there were too expensive, she agreed since Ye Fan had suggested it and her sister was so keen on the idea.
