Girls never dislike being complimented.
Zhu Yulan quite enjoyed being called a beautiful woman, "I'll take that as sincere, but... I don't really have any money to buy gifts for our meeting right now."
"Anything is fine. My little boss isn't that petty. She won't kick people out for not bringing gifts," Xu Musen laughed heartily.
Zhu Yulan watched his smiling face, seeming as though the very mention of An Nuannuan made his smile unwavering. It was truly sweet to see.
Zhu Yulan looked at the lemon she was slicing... Pfft, she wondered why her mouth felt bitter.
Xu Musen took care of things and then left.
He still needed to get ready for the parent-teacher meeting he was attending for his younger aunt.
When he got home, Xu Musen thought about sneaking in to see how Nuannuan was preparing.
But as soon as he entered the house, he heard voices coming from the bedroom.
"Aiyah, isn't this dress a bit small?"
"It's not exactly small… it's just a bit snug in some areas."
