It seemed like he had just taken a shower and was now absentmindedly using his phone, engaging in a conversation with someone.

Lu Weixi was startled by his appearance and furrowed her brow slightly, “Zhiyou, you…”

Qin Zhiyou glanced at her indifferently, “My mother is at the door, you’d better change into the nightgown we bought the other day.”

Lu Weixi understood. Mrs Yang was here for inspection again. No wonder Qin Zhiyou had come rushing over wrapped just in a bath towel. He probably hadn’t planned on sleeping in the bedroom at all initially.

Having had time to calm down and after having a bath, Lu Weixi was feeling better. The current pressing matter was to get Mrs. Yang to leave as soon as possible, so she needed to put on an affectionate act with Qin Zhiyou.

She turned around to get the V-neck garment they had bought earlier, but Qin Zhiyou immediately shook his head, “Wearing the same outfit every time? My mother is very observant, she’ll know something’s up. You have to pull out all the stops when you’re putting on a show. If we’re going to make it look like we’re in love, we have to do it convincingly.”

Lu Weixi hesitated, but Qin Zhiyou dropped another comment, “Change into something else this time, or I won’t give you the money.”

“Or I won’t give you the money” was the clincher. Lu Weixi mulled it over, and went back to pick out a long dress from the pile of clothes. The dress was fine from the front and side, the problematic area was the back, where the slit ran dangerously low. Looking at it from the front, Lu Weixi couldn’t find any issues and even thought it was overly formal.

If Mrs. Yang’s idea of clothes for her to buy were all like this, she’d change into them one by one right away.

Changing into a new outfit for ten thousand yuan each time. She could keep changing until Qin Zhiyou went bankrupt.

Qin Zhiyou hurriedly swallowed, drawing in a deep breath, desperately averting his gaze and closing his eyes.

If it weren’t for Mrs. Yang’s impending arrival, he would absolutely let her stay in this dress. There would be no need to undress. He could just go over to her.

Mrs. Yang and her were not here to rescue him. It was clear they were here to torture him and test his willpower.

Sure enough, someone knocked on the door shortly after. It was Aunt Hao coming to collect the bowl from her finished medicine. However, Yang Mogui also “just happened” to come over with her. She didn’t think much when she saw her daughter-in-law in the dress, until Qin Zhiyou walked over only wrapped in a bath towel.

“There is nothing wrong, right?” Qin Zhiyou’s face remained indifferent, but there was a hint of annoyance in his voice.

Yang Mogui replied, “There’s nothing wrong, it’s just…”

Before she could finish speaking, the door was slammed shut. If there was nothing wrong, why was she babbling on? It was clear that Qin Zhiyou couldn’t be bothered any longer to listen to her prattle, so he closed the door.

Yang Mogui was left flabbergasted by her son. Her face instantly darkened. If Qin Zhiyou had dared to treat her like this normally, she would have kicked up a fuss. She wanted her son and daughter-in-law to get closer, but not at the expense of her son disrespecting her, especially in front of Aunt Hao and her daughter-in-law. She initially wanted to demand an explanation, but considering that Aunt Hao was still there, she swallowed her anger, turned on her heel, and left.

Inside the room..

When the door was closed just now, Lu Weixi was standing by the door and Qin Zhiyou was behind her, his long arm stretching out to shut the door. Once the door was closed, she was boxed in a cramped space between the door and Qin Zhiyou..
