Hidden in the lingerie section were several particularly distinct outfits – fishnet, lace, leopard print… Just at the sight of these dazzling designs, his Adam’s apple involuntarily bobbed up and down. Thankfully, Lu Weixi deemed the transparent ensemble too embarrassing, not placing it amongst these, but stowing it deeper in the wardrobe; otherwise, seeing it would have been… really… something.

For a moment, Qin Zhiyou wanted to praise God.

He picked up some clothes, turned around to look at Lu Weixi, purposely choosing the most exaggerated styles, “Did your mom buy these for you today?”

Lu Weixi glanced at them and didn’t respond, instead tilting her head to the side.

“My goodness…” Oh how no man could resist seeing his woman in these kinds of clothes. Ms. Yang really did a commendable job!

He took several deep breaths, striving to control his emotions, laying out the clothes by the bed. “Did your mom buy all of these for you?”

Do you think I would buy these kinds of clothes? Lu Weixi grumbled internally but still held her silence.

Qin Zhiyou glanced at the lingerie once more. If it weren’t for the need to maintain an unaffected facade in front of Lu Weixi, he would have fallen in love with them immediately. But then his eyes fell onto the price tags and his brows furrowed slightly. Suddenly, he brought up a surprising query, “Did you buy these clothes, or were they bought using your mother’s money?”

His question was spot on. The whole batch of clothes that Lu Weixi bought this time added up to a whopping hundred thousand yuan. This price was nearly enough to cover her mom’s medical expenses for a month.

Back when she was still a pampered young mistress, she used to buy skirts worth two to three hundred thousand yuan. But even when she was spending back then, she’d buy clothes she could and liked to wear. As for these items, she guessed she would never wear them again in her lifetime. So buying them was purely wasteful.

Although Qin Zhiyou always came back recently, providing a lot of living expenses, she still needed to save something up. She sighed a little, “Of course, it was me.”

What broke her heart was that she spent so much money on a bunch of clothes she couldn’t actually wear.

Now, Qin Zhiyou had a clue, yet he asked deliberately again, “These clothes shouldn’t be expensive, right?”

He casually picked up a leopard-print piece, looking at the price, even gesturing nonchalantly, “Just a few thousand yuan.”

Please remove the word “just”. Back in the day, she had no idea about the cost of living. As a spoiled young lady, she only knew how to spend money, having no concept of how hard it was to earn money. Her most typical business, from design to supervision, could take more than a month to complete, and she would only earn a few thousand yuan at the least.

Qin Zhiyou turned to see her mildly indignant expression and knew that she had taken the bait. He purposely put on a calm face, placed the leopard-print piece back neatly, and said nonchalantly, “Put the clothes away.”

Lu Weixi turned to look at him, his face as calm and undisturbed as always. Her legs carried her before the nearby sofa where she sat down. Qin Zhiyou, who had been with many women, probably had seen even more outrageous garments, she reckoned.

But a hundred thousand really was a large sum for her at the moment.

She looked at the pile of clothes on the bed, distressed, she couldn’t help but ask, “Can you reimburse me for these clothes?”

Qin Zhiyou slightly lifted his head. His face remained as always, utterly unflappable, even displaying a hint of surprise, “Why should I reimburse you? I’m not the one wearing these clothes.”

“Qin Zhiyou!” Lu Weixi was furious, yes, he wasn’t the one wearing the clothes, but they were bought to please him. “Your mother wanted me to buy these..”
