From Runaway Bride to Global Queen-Chapter 27 - This Outfit Looks Bad

Chapter 27: Chapter 27 This Outfit Looks Bad

Lu Xiaohua looked at Qiao Yi and Qiao Xin with suspicion, as they appeared very close and intimate. She had heard before that their relationship wasn’t that good, and now they suddenly seemed like loving sisters.

Qiao Yi noticed Lu Xiaohua looking at her and made a face at Lu Xiaohua, who instantly got the hint.

This guy must be up to no good, probably just waiting for a chance to prank Qiao Xin.

One’s her younger sibling, the other her niece by marriage, Lu Xiaohua didn’t hesitate for a moment to take Qiao Yi’s side and took her to try on the evening gowns.

Three women make a drama; four women can destroy the world.

What was supposed to be a simple dress fitting turned into an open yet covert struggle once Wang Zhen joined, leaving Lu Ming, who accompanied them, utterly confused.

...

To say they got along well was an understatement, as every word and sentence was charged with tension.

To say they couldn’t bear each other also didn’t fit, as they still managed to sit together and discuss clothes. The world of women is indeed incomprehensible.

As dusk approached, the women finally left the dressing room, satisfied with their hearts.

“Let’s hurry up; the banquet is about to start.”

The biggest difference between men and women lies here. Qiao Yi spent the whole afternoon trying on gowns, doing her makeup, and styling her hair until she was all set.

Meanwhile, Lu Yanchuan just changed into a simple outfit and was ready to go.

He even scrutinized Qiao Yi’s carefully chosen pink, tight-fitting, long dress with a critical eye, as if to say she spent all afternoon for just this?

Qiao Yi felt the implication behind Lu Yanchuan’s gaze and got furious.

Suppressing her anger, Qiao Yi deliberately sashayed up to Lu Yanchuan with a snake-like twist of her waist, stretched an arm to rest on Lu Yanchuan’s shoulder, leaning in as if to snuggle into his embrace.

“Yanchuan~ Does my dress look good?”

Even Lu Xiaohua felt a shiver hearing that voice, curious whether her brother, who had always been immune to women since childhood, could resist such an approach.

Lu Yanchuan did not disappoint Lu Xiaohua’s expectations, successfully resisting Qiao Yi’s charm, and even discontentedly pulled up the fabric at the chest of Qiao Yi’s dress.

“Dressed in such little clothing, not afraid of catching a cold?”

Qiao Yi nearly spat blood; all this time Lu Yanchuan was looking at how little clothes she wore!

Qiao Yi was infuriated, utterly dead with frustration!

Insiders are often confused, while onlookers see the game clearly.

Lu Xiaohua stood by with disbelief in her eyes.

She knew Lu Yanchuan all too well. This man lacked any sense of concern for strangers!

Let alone strangers, even amongst the Lu Family aside from Old Mr. Lu and Old Madam Lu, she was probably the only one who could have a proper conversation with Lu Yanchuan. The rest were like mice in front of a cat.

And now he’s concerned about her catching a cold?

Lu Xiaohua could guarantee that if it were any woman other than Qiao Yi standing in front of Lu Yanchuan, even if that woman stripped naked, he probably wouldn’t spare her a glance!

However, saying she might catch a cold was a bit insincere. Although it wasn’t the peak of summer yet, wearing an evening dress definitely wouldn’t cause one to feel cold.

Suddenly, Lu Xiaohua thought of something, noticed Qiao Yi’s perfect figure outlined by the evening dress, then looked at her brother’s gloomy face, and a sly aunt-like smile appeared on her face.

“Lu Yanchuan, are you deliberately picking a fight?”

The bandeau dress was almost pulled up to the collarbone by Lu Yanchuan!

Qiao Yi smacked away Lu Yanchuan’s paws angrily, pulling her neckline back to where it was supposed to be.

Lu Yanchuan furrowed his brows at the sight.

“This dress looks ugly, go change it.”

“I won’t change it! If I think this dress looks good, then it looks good; it’s none of your business!”

Qiao Yi rolled her eyes, but the next moment her vision suddenly went dark.

It wasn’t until Qiao Yi struggled out of the clothes pulled down over her head that she realized Lu Yanchuan had taken off his coat to drape it over her.

“What on earth are you doing, Lu Yanchuan!”

Qiao Yi got angry; not only did Lu Yanchuan never say anything nice, but he now even dared to grope around. Did he really think she was such a pushover that she wouldn’t get mad!

Lu Xiaohua, seeing Qiao Yi seemed really annoyed by Lu Yanchuan, was about to try and mediate, only to see Lu Yanchuan calmly and deliberately helping Qiao Yi put on the coat and even took the trouble to fasten the buttons for her.

“This piece of clothing looks unattractive; don’t wear it again.”

“If you like it, just wear it at home; not outside.”

Qiao Yi looked at her dress, now securely covered, and then at Lu Yanchuan’s relaxed face, seeming to understand something.

“You…”

“Sister, why are you so slow? Didn’t we agree to go to the venue together? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”

Qiao Xin’s voice interrupted what Qiao Yi was about to say. Qiao Yi looked towards the elevator, displeased, only to see Qiao Xin swaying her hips as she walked over.

She was no longer wearing the gown she had initially chosen, but a nearly translucent dress which, under the flickering lights, made it crystal clear what kind of underwear she was wearing.

Instinctively, Qiao Yi went to block Lu Yanchuan’s line of sight, but before she could act, Lu Yanchuan had already turned away.

“Ah, brother-in-law is here too. Earlier Yiyi said that she wanted to ride with you to the banquet. I think it’s about time; shall we go?”

Qiao Xin seemed not to notice that Lu Yanchuan had turned away, bypassing Qiao Yi and walking straight to Lu Yanchuan’s side intending to link arms with him.

Qiao Yi didn’t expect her to remember that matter; wasn’t it enough that she made a scene the whole afternoon? Now she’s wearing such a revealing outfit in front of Yanchuan, has she no shame!

“It is indeed time to go; Yanchuan, let’s go.”

Qiao Yi stepped ahead and took Lu Yanchuan’s arm first, and Lu Yanchuan followed her, standing beside her without glancing aside, heading out together.

Qiao Xin stamped her feet, ignoring Lu Xiaohua still there and immediately chased after them.

“Sister, you walk so fast; wait for me…ouch!”

Qiao Xin hastened her steps, almost catching up to Lu Yanchuan, when her eyes rolled and she leaned onto him.

“Sister, how could you be so careless? If you had fallen, that would have been bad.”

Qiao Xin opened her eyes, only to meet Qiao Yi’s eyes, which were filled with mirth.

It was Qiao Yi who had caught her!

And Lu Yanchuan had already moved several steps away!

The smile on Qiao Xin’s face was terribly ugly; Qiao Yi looked at her with unrestrained eyes, almost setting her ablaze!

Qiao Yi sneered inwardly, after all, she was the eldest daughter who had been painstakingly raised by her father for over twenty years; how did it come to be that she was just a fool who only knew how to seduce men!

“Sister, if your clothes or shoes are uncomfortable, you should go change them quickly. It’s still okay to fall down here at big sister’s place, but if you fall like that at the banquet, that would be interesting.”
