Chapter 261: Chapter 140: Su Ran: Both of Them Are My Girlfriends

Su Ran noticed her hesitation. He picked out a beautiful dress and handed it to her. "This one would look great on you. Go try it on."

"Mhm." Xiao Wanqing took the dress and went into the fitting room. She could hear the cheerful chatter of several sales associates talking to Su Ran outside. They had likely recognized him as ’Young Master Su’ and struck up a conversation. Some wanted a picture with him, some wanted his WeChat, and others asked if the person in the fitting room was his girlfriend—all questions that girls were very curious about.

Of course, Xiao Wanqing trusted Su Ran. But whenever girls flocked around him, trying every which way to get close, a woman couldn’t help but feel insecure. ’After all, once a girl gives herself to a man for the first time, she starts to feel like he has all the control. She worries he’ll get tired of her and leave her. It happens all the time.’

"...The person inside is my girlfriend. You can have a photo, but no WeChat. My girlfriend will get angry if she finds out."

When Xiao Wanqing heard Su Ran say this, her heart warmed. She parted the curtain, holding the hem of her dress, and walked out. "Su Ran~"

Hearing Xiao Wanqing call his name, Su Ran turned to look. His bright eyes reflected her white figure, which, like a lotus flower blooming from the mud yet remaining unstained, made everyone else around them pale in comparison.

Xiao Wanqing gave a faint smile, tucking a stray strand of hair that had fallen across her delicate, pretty face behind her ear with a fair hand. Her eyes conveyed an indescribable tenderness and shyness.

"How do I look?"

She approached him, confidently walking toward Su Ran, who stood in the middle of a crowd of women. The group of saleswomen instinctively took a step back, as if repelled by the girl’s stunning beauty. They moved away from Su Ran’s side, naturally feeling that only someone like Young Master Su was worthy of such a gorgeous woman.

Only Wang Xiaoxiao remained standing by Su Ran’s side. Seeing him staring intently at Xiao Wanqing, she smiled and said, "Miss Xiao, you’re so beautiful. Look, Young Master Su is completely stunned. I’m so envious of you. This is the first time I’ve ever seen him with a look like that in his eyes. You’re so lucky."

Flattery always sounds good.

"Su Ran..."

Xiao Wanqing called out his name softly, her face blushing. "Come help me with the zipper."

Su Ran walked up to Xiao Wanqing’s side. Seeing her in this beautiful dress, she was already perfect.

"You’re so beautiful, Wanqing."

"As long as you like it. Help me with the zipper."

Xiao Wanqing turned to face the mirror, gathering the hair scattered across her back and draping it over her left shoulder. The hairstyle itself was dangerously alluring.

Su Ran reached out and slowly pulled the zipper up, enclosing her beautiful back bit by bit.

Through the mirror, Xiao Wanqing watched the serious expression on Su Ran’s face behind her. ’My youth was worth it.’

"Done."

"Mhm."

Xiao Wanqing nodded, turned to face Su Ran, and simply smiled. If no one else had been around, she would have stood on her tiptoes and kissed him.

Xiao Wanqing didn’t know why she’d become so fond of kissing Su Ran lately.

’Can you get addicted to something like that?’

But sometimes, Su Ran wouldn’t kiss her. Even if she offered a kiss, he would just keep his mouth closed.

Like last night, after she showed him the place where she’d been kicked.

But Xiao Wanqing didn’t mind. For Su Ran, whom she loved, she was willing to do anything in private.

’This is true love.’

...

After buying a dress and a wool coat to go with it, Xiao Wanqing looked even more perfect. Fine feathers make fine birds; the saying was absolutely true.

A woman’s greatest asset is showing off her man, making others burn with envy.

A man’s greatest asset is the woman by his side—the kind that others can only envy.

As they walked out of the International Finance Center, many male customers turned to stare at the stunning woman on Su Ran’s arm. Looking back at their own partners, they found them plain and uninteresting by comparison.

Xiao Wanqing was the kind of woman you could proudly show off, one who could command any room.

"Did I make you look good?"

"Of course. So many people were envying me."

"Heh, of course. I’m Xiao Wanqing, after all."

"Let’s go. My cousin said he’s coming to pick us up."

"He’s coming all the way here to get us? Tell him not to bother, we can just grab a cab."

"He’s almost here."

Regarding his cousin, Zhou Bailin, before they had met, Su Ran had thought of the old saying: "First-generation cousins are close, second-generation cousins are distant, and by the third or fourth, you don’t even know each other."

Su Ran and Zhou Bailin hadn’t reached the third generation; they were still second-generation cousins.

One was in Jiangning, the other in Shanghai.

They had never met, and Su Ran had assumed his cousin would be the type of Shanghainese who felt superior and was hostile to outsiders.

But that wasn’t the case. Zhou Bailin was very friendly.

After waiting a short while at the entrance of the International Finance Center, an Audi Q5 pulled up. Zhou Bailin, sporting heavy dark circles under his eyes, got out and greeted Su Ran with a warm hug.

Su Ran caught a whiff of perfume on him. That, combined with the dark circles, meant he didn’t need to guess what his cousin had been up to.

’A true time-management master.’

"Cousin."

"Not bad. You’ve gotten even more handsome, kid."

Zhou Bailin clapped Su Ran on the shoulder, looking him up and down before turning his gaze to Xiao Wanqing beside him.

"Hey, Xiao Wanqing. We meet again."

His cousin had been street racing before, and the four girls had gone to cheer him on. They already knew each other, just not well. She knew Zhou Bailin was a scumbag.

"Hello, Zhou Bailin."

"Hello."

His cousin gave Su Ran another look, thinking to himself, ’Well, well. Didn’t you say your girlfriend was Liu Jinyu from the Four Young Actresses? How did she suddenly turn into Xiao Wanqing?’

"Ahem. Uh, Xiao Wanqing, why don’t you get in the car first? I need a word with Su Ran."

"About what?"

"I’m his cousin, just having a little chat with my cousin. Do you need to manage that, too?"

"Tch."

Xiao Wanqing got in the car, pressing her ear against the door to eavesdrop on their conversation. She cursed under her breath, "This new Audi Q5’s soundproofing is too damn good!"
