Chapter 1410: Chapter 810: Has the Little Girl Been Led Astray? The Veteran Driver Tempts the Naive Girl (Part 2)
Inside the menās clothing store
Lin Luyou had never selected menās clothes before. When it came to clothing matching or tie selection, she was completely clueless, so she listened very attentively to the store clerkās introduction.
"Who are you choosing for? An elder, husband, boyfriend? Whatās the price range?" The clerk was very professional, but Lin Luyou felt a bit bewildered.
"How about you tell me about his usual style, and Iāll recommend something for you." The clerk smiled.
Lin Luyou pursed her lips and said, "Something simple, usually a lot of black, white, and gray color."
"How about taking a look at this tie? Itās been selling very well this year."
"And since you mentioned he usually wears more black, white, and gray, actually choosing some brighter colors to change it up a bit could also be nice."
"And thereās also this one, which is selling extremely well this year."
...
Lin Luyou took a closer look; it was a dark red tie, this color...
Tang Wan was standing not far away, watching as the clerk recommended colors like yellow and sapphire blue. To be honest, the tie colors were nice, but pairing them with their familyās third brother...
It just felt a bit flashy.
Likely, Lin Luyou wouldnāt choose, nor would she know how to match them, yet in the end, she actually picked a red tie that completely mismatched Jiang Shiyiās temperament.
Even during celebrations at the Jiang Family, Jiang Shiyi had never worn a tie of such color.
"Mr. Tang." Lin Luyou seemed to doubt her own judgment and turned to Tang Wan, asking, "Do you think this color looks good?"
"It looks good."
Any tie taken alone looks good, but itās all about matching styles.
Lin Luyou handled matters similarly to her work, decisively and swiftly, buying promptly without hesitating.
"Why pick a tie? Not going to look at other things?" Tang Wan knew whom she was buying for but didnāt expose it.
Lin Luyouās answer left Tang Wan speechless:
"In this store, only the ties are relatively cheap."
"..."
Shirts and suits, many are sold in sets. For menās watches and shoes, thereās no need to mention further. Tang Wan never thought the reason she chose a tie was...
Because itās cheap!
Lin Luyou rarely shops, and she couldnāt imagine that childrenās wear and menās wear could be so expensive, especially things used for kids. No wonder so many people nowadays say they canāt afford to raise children.

After shopping, Lin Luyou bought a neck massager and an electric fascia gun for her parents but nothing for herself.
"Arenāt you going to pick something for yourself, like clothes or jewelry?" Tang Wan noticed Lin Luyou didnāt even have pierced ears.
"Even if I buy it, I wonāt wear it, itās quite wasteful."
"If you donāt dress up at your age, when do you plan to? Even after work, you should present yourself nicely." Ruan Mengxi was curious about how Jiang Shiyi found such a gem.
She seemed distant yet was simple-minded, possessing a beautiful and sweet face while lacking self-awareness. Perhaps she was too focused on academia, not understanding many things, which was rather endearing.
"Come on, youāve been with us all day, buy yourself something as well."
Lin Luyou felt she could spend 360 days of the year in the lab, barely needing these things. However, she couldnāt resist Ruan Mengxiās enthusiasm, allowing her to drag her into several shops.
Tang Wan and Ruan Mengxi had good taste, picking out a few dresses that looked great on her.
The love for beauty is inherent; Lin Luyou ended up buying several sets of clothes, which caused Tang Wan to worry.
When Jiang Jinsang called in the middle, she seemed troubled.
"Did anything unpleasant happen during shopping today?"
"Not really, itās just that Team Leader Lin bought quite a few things today. How much do you think her monthly salary is?" Tang Wan was worried about her overconsumption.
"Youāre worrying too much, I think she might be wealthier than you think."
"What do you mean?"
"Grandma sometimes asks about Third Brotherās work situation. The project they were busy with in the latter half of last year reportedly had funding of several million. After completing the experiment, there were considerable bonuses, and various welfare benefits and treatment should be better than you think." Jiang Jinsang explained.
Tang Wan nodded, realizing her worries were in vain.
...
As Ruan Mengxi needed to go to the Qi Family in the evening and Tang Wan had to go home for dinner, the group parted ways in the early evening. Lin Luyou originally planned to call a car to go back, but Tang Wan informed her:
"Iāve told Third Brother, heās coming to pick you up."
Lin Luyou suddenly felt awkward, as she was still wearing the newly bought dress. It was a fresh style and looked beautiful, though not her usual style.
