After Gu Yan dealt with Jiang Jingcheng, he checked the time and took a taxi back to his home, ready to dress up and go to see Xiangyan beautifully.
"Manla, what do you think I should wear tonight?" Gu Yan looked at the clothes in the cabinet, frowning, looking embarrassed, unable to choose. These clothes were the clothes she usually wore, and they seemed to have nothing special about them.
She picked out the clothes one by one, but none of them seemed to be satisfactory. These were all popular styles last year, and would be a bit out of date if she wore them today. But this year she didn't have extra time to dress herself up carefully. She was too busy with things in the studio, so she couldn't spare any time to change the clothes in the wardrobe.
Gu Yan took out a long white dress with a cute little yellow flower embroidered on the chest, but it looked a bit old. When Gu Yan put on this dress, she looked listless, with twinkling eyes. A little resentful, Gu Yan scratched her head, feeling a little irritable.
Gu Yan looked at herself in the mirror, intoxicated in the sea of narcissism, unable to extricate herself, but she did not expect that her dream would be shattered by Manla's words.
Manla looked at the helpless Gu Yan next to her, the muscles on her face were tense, and she felt helpless about her current state. Poor woman, for the sake of her love, she worked hard to please her mother-in-law who didn't like her. Manla knew that Gu Yan was in a difficult situation and sympathized deeply with her. She did not want to say anything to hurt her anymore. She just hoped that Gu Yan could be happier in the future and not be like her last marriage.
Manla held the water glass in her hand and stared at the woman in front of her who kept dancing in front of the mirror. She slowly walked towards her, placed the water glass on the table next to her, and looked up and down Gu Yan with interest.
"Although this dress is very beautiful, and when it is put on, the whole person looks very beautiful, capable, and most importantly, it is full of femininity and looks like a good wife and mother. You know, it creates such a... An illusion, you know, and..." Manla was leaning on the sofa next to him, his thumb kept touching his chin, and the muscles on his face drooped, looking very disgusted.
"Illusion, the slave family is originally very virtuous, okay? I am proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I can do everything the woman next door can do. Why can't I be a good wife and mother? It's still an illusion!"
"Yes, yes, you are a hard-working person." Manla looked at Gu Yan, who was plausibly speaking, and treated her perfunctorily.
"Moreover? What do you want to say next? Do you really dislike this dress?"
Gu Yan's expression was obviously a little ugly. This was the dress she had carefully selected, and she had spent a lot of money to buy it last year. It was a limited edition. Compared with the clothes in the closet, this dress was more noble than one level!
"I said, this dress of yours is old. You can see that it has been polished all over. It looks like you have worn it for a long time. I said that you are really wasting your clothes. A good dress has been worn by you even after wearing it for a long time. It’s been tortured like this.”
Manla stretched out her fingers and pointed at the white dress Gu Yan was wearing. The disgust on her face was simply unspeakable and could not be described in words.
"I think it's pretty good. Although it's a bit polished, it looks good to me. It's not as bad as you said." Gu Yan followed Manla's fingers and found the place she described as bad, and stared at it carefully. observe.
She had a ferocious face and looked very troubled. Manla was her best friend, and her opinion played an important role in her heart. Even though she said this, she still felt a little unreliable. It's not like she doesn't know Li Yunhong's attitude towards her. If she catches something again tonight, Gu Yan won't be the only one who will be embarrassed!
"Okay, okay, whatever you think is good is fine. I can't control you anyway. Just wear this dress and go see your future noble mother-in-law. What will she think of you?"
After hearing what Gu Yan said, Manla didn't want to continue. She understood Gu Yan's temper and it would be useless to talk more. On the contrary, such a decisive attitude would affect the sensitive nerve in her heart.
Manla looked at Gu Yan again with melancholy eyes, lowered her eyes slightly, sat on the sofa next to her, crossed her legs, and looked at her phone. While looking at her phone, she picked up the fruit on the table and ate it.
Gu Yan's heartstrings were indeed touched. After all, she was meeting her future mother-in-law this time. She had to act more solemnly. Although she knew that Li Yunhonghua didn't like her, she had to try her best to change her attitude towards him. In this way, the relationship between her and Mo Yichen could get closer.
Gu Yan looked at herself in the mirror and her body stiffened for a moment. As expected, the self in the mirror was still not capable enough. She was a little behind Chen Qian. If Chen Qian stood in the crowd, she would definitely be the best among the girls. , but she is different, maybe she is passerby A.
"Manla, what do you think we should do? I don't have any decent clothes. What do you think I should wear to meet Mo Yichen's mother? And what gifts should I bring? I don't have any of these. I understand, what do you think I should do? And I’m embarrassed to ask Yichen about this kind of thing.”
Gu Yan hesitated for a moment, then ran to Chen Qian, squatted down, and shook her crossed legs. Her eyes were full of longing. Seeing her helpless look, Chen Qian felt a little distressed.
"Okay, okay, what's so rare about this? Come on, I'll go shopping with you. It should be too late now."
"There's really nothing we can do about you." Manla stabbed Gu Yan's forehead with her finger, expressing her deep helplessness and giving her a deep look.
"I knew you were the best, and our Manla is the best. I promise that if everything goes well this time, I will give you the lipstick you liked last time." Gu Yan jumped happily. He stood up, his face filled with joy, teasing Manla, who was still pretending to be sulky.
"Really? You want to give it to me, why didn't you tell me earlier?" The expression on Manla's face instantly became very happy, but she immediately realized something, scratched her head in embarrassment, and stopped asking any more questions.
Gu Yan packed her things, put on her hiking shoes, and prepared to go out to buy clothes.
The two of them quickly took a taxi to the mall. Gu Yan looked at the large piles of clothes of various colors in the mall, and her brain was hit by 10,000 points. With so many clothes, which one is the most suitable for her
Gu Yan has always been a casual girl and doesn't like to go to the mall to buy clothes. Unless she is buying clothes for Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan, her assistant usually chooses her clothes for her. She has no interest in these clothes. , I feel that choosing clothes is really a huge challenge for her!
