Chapter 88 Black Formal Attire
Cui Yi and Xue Luo sat in the back seat, Cang Mu drove, accompanying them on a stroll.
The weather outside is great, perfect for a family outing.
Starting from Leggett in the north of San Francisco, it winds along the Pacific coast, with its unique geographical environment, one side is the vast Pacific Ocean and the other side is steep cliffs, the scenery is breathtaking, known as the most beautiful highway in the world.
It is a hub connecting San Francisco and Los Angeles.
There are several small towns like bright pearls between this highway, scattered along the Pacific coast, known for their tranquility and unique beauty.
In fact, on the highway, it is often possible to see villas built on the top of mountains or cliffs by the sea, far away from human habitation, hidden in the woods, facing the sea, and with a high price.
Along the way, there are also high-level golf courses, Jin Yin Island, Municipal Center, Union Square, Fisherman's Wharf, Chinatown and so on.
"Beyond that, it's the BIXBY Bridge. This bridge spans a massive deep gorge, and from afar, it looks magnificent, in the grandeur of natural scenery, its beautiful arched bridge hole is not inferior at all, so the place where you can gaze out at the big bridge is the most popular spot for tourists to stop..." Xue Luo pointed ahead at the bridge, saying to Cui Yi.
Cui Yi listened attentively and then exclaimed in surprise: "Xue Luo, how did you know all this?"
Xue Luo was taken aback by the question, these places were all so familiar to her.
Having lived in California for four years, all the places to go, all the beautiful scenery, someone has taken her there. All have left behind her smiling figure.
"Because I've been here before..." she replied softly, her eyes involuntarily glancing at the rearview mirror again, he still didn't have any expression.
Aunt Cui didn't ask any further because of time constraints. They had walked halfway and used up their lunch break, then headed back again.
It was already very late when they returned to California, but Cui Yi was in high spirits. After finishing dinner outside, she insisted on dragging Xue Luo out to stroll the streets.
Women always end up going into clothing stores when they go shopping. Those beautifully decorated big stores, rarely visited by them in their daily lives. To be honest, they don't often buy clothes because everything they eat, wear and use is already prepared for them by certain people. When she goes shopping with Qianqian and the others, it's usually just sitting in an ice cream shop chatting or hiding away in a coffee shop gossiping.
Cui Yi takes good care of herself, and it's impossible to guess her age from her appearance. She looks like she's in her early forties at most.
The young lady in the store saw Cui's aunt coming in and warmly welcomed her with a smile, and enthusiastically helped her choose clothes.
Cui Yi took out a black silk little dress and turned her head to call out to Xue Luo: "Luo, come over and try it on..."
Xue Luo was shocked: "No... Aunt Cui, you see for yourself..."
"Listen... go quickly!"
Reluctantly, she had no choice but to take the evening dress and go change into it.
Very simple design, smooth lines, silky drapery just clinging to her perfect figure, only...
She brushed the snow off her arms, and the design of the suspenders made her chest reveal too much. Although it's true that in this open country, many people wear revealing clothes, she still felt quite uncomfortable with it.
When she went out of the door, she covered her chest with her hands. Aunt Cui exclaimed: "Too beautiful, Snow... this dress is really fitting..."
"Yes, miss, this one matches perfectly, and it also goes well with the gentleman's black..." The shop assistant chimed in.
Snow fell, and she couldn't help but look at him. He was standing by the door, making a phone call, but his eyes were fixed on her. She quickly looked away, lowering her head.
Provide you with the best online service.
"I...I think it's too revealing..." She murmured, then hastily went inside to change her clothes.
In the end, I didn't buy it.
Cui Yi insisted on buying it, but Xue Luo refused and pulled Cui Yi out.
Just as she walked out of the store, her phone rang. Snow heard the ringtone and paused for a moment, but didn't reach out to answer it.
"It's snowing, why aren't you answering your phone?" Aunt Cui asked her from the side, and she hastily took it out.
Saw the "heaven" character jumping on the mobile phone screen, and pressed the hang-up button with a trembling hand.
"Why didn't you answer?" Cui Yi was puzzled, but the person on the other end just glanced at her and continued walking forward.
"Uh, wrong number..." she said softly, fortunately Cui Yi didn't ask her again, and the phone also stopped ringing.
It was very late when I got home. Aunt Cui had a flight tomorrow afternoon, so she took a bath and rested afterwards.
The snow fell and I took a look at the snowy white scene. Qianqian called me on the phone, we chatted for a while before I went to take a shower.
As she entered the bedroom, however, her eyes fell upon a box on the bed. Her hand, which was wiping her hair, froze in mid-air as she stared at the label on the box, afraid to open it.
She certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to think that Aunt Cui bought it for her, but... hadn't he always been with them? Where would he have had the time to go shopping?
Although she didn't speak with a sarcastic tone like the previous days, she knew it was because of Aunt Cui's presence, but did she have to make it so obvious? And still had to consider Aunt Cui's face and send her clothes?
Snow fell staring at the box in front of her for a long time, that black silk dress was quietly placed in front of her, like a blooming rose, no need to do anything, it would pierce people's eyes.
There was a rustling sound behind him, and the snow fell in a flurry as he hastily turned around.
These past few days, I've been updating relatively late, and I also saw some of you expressing dissatisfaction in the comments. Tomorrow, I'll try to update earlier because I don't have time to stockpile drafts - everything is written and posted on the spot. Additionally, I'm not very fast at writing, and sometimes I need to look up references for certain parts, or I might not be satisfied with a particular section, so I end up deleting over 1,000 words and rewriting them from scratch, which slows me down even more... So please bear with me and understand!
Regarding comments, I have seen them all, it's just that I really didn't have time to respond. Starting from tomorrow, I will try my best to find some time to reply, thank you everyone!
