Chapter 620: 620, Illegitimate daughter?
Shi Huan instantly nodded, “It’s beautiful.”
“I found it pretty too, I didn’t realize that I look so good in professional attire!” Mo Weiyi boasted.
I initially thought if I ended up becoming a lawyer after graduation, wearing these monochromatic work clothes, It’d be so dull and ugly!
Turns out, as expected, looks matter in how clothes look on you.
As long as the person and figure are beautiful, even a sack looks fashionable!
Next, Mo Weiyi tried on several more outfits, each fitting perfectly.
Meanwhile, Little Luoluo behaved herself all along, not causing any fuss whatsoever.
After handing the tried clothes to the salesperson, Mo Weiyi picked up a black suit and said, “Huanhuan, I am sure you will look fabulous in this outfit. You should try it on.”
“No need, I’m not buying clothes.”
“It doesn’t matter if you’re not buying, I’ll gift it to you.”
Shi Huan was taken aback, and quickly refused, “I genuinely don’t need clothes. I have a lot of professional attire at home.”
What she said was the truth.
Over these five years, her size hadn’t really changed, so the several identical professional suits she had bought earlier still worked well for her.
Mo Weiyi said, “No, you’ve spent so much time shopping with me. I’d feel embarrassed if you left empty-handed. Hurry up, if you do not want to try it on, then let’s just straight away buy it?”
After saying this, she glanced at Shi Huan’s chest, “I noticed the size, I’m just afraid the bust might not be big enough.”
“Huh?”
Before Shi Huan could comprehend, Mo Weiyi quickly said, “I’m so envious of you. You have such a big chest size, just like Wanwan. Why doesn’t my bust grow bigger?”
Saying this, she looked down at her own small B-cup.
Shi Huan was extremely embarrassed.
Even though this was a women’s clothing shop, and all the shoppers were women, but…
Openly discussing breast sizes like this, to be honest, was a bit awkward.
“You should really try it on; if the bust turned out to be small, it’d be very inconvenient. Hurry and go try it on.” Saying this, Mo Weiyi shoved the clothes into her hands.
Shi Huan had no choice but to go inside.
As soon as the door closed, she took a look at the price tag on the dress and almost dropped the clothes in shock.
The price of this professional attire and the ones she usually wore was almost the same, except for the brand name and a bit better quality fabric. But it cost more than 20,000 yuan?
Indeed the Mo family’s Little Princess, splurging money even while shopping for clothes!

When Shi Huan came out after trying on the clothes, Mo Weiyi clapped her hands, “Perfect! Please bill this one as well, and I’ll pay with card.”
“Sure, Miss Mo.” The saleswoman was extremely pleased.
Mo Weiyi was an old patron of this mall, but it was her first time purchasing from their store.
The first time and she spent over tens of thousands! If she visited occasionally from now on, they wouldn’t have to worry about their store’s sales!
“Weiyi, this suit is a bit too expensive,” Shi Huan felt somewhat uneasy.
She didn’t need to dress so extravagantly for her daily commutes to work.
“It’s not expensive. As long as you look good in it.” Mo Weiyi had a carefree attitude. She casually swiped her card, then handed the shopping bag to Shi Huan, “I’ll be doing an internship soon and there will be a lot of things I will not understand. I’ll need your help then. So consider this as a consultancy fee. Do not refuse it!”
Shi Huan had to laugh at this, and she accepted it.
When leaving the mall, she checked her phone again.
Little Luoluo was right beside her, but that couple hadn’t made a single phone call.

Rong An drove Shi Huan back to the Huangyou Building.
Once she got off, Shi Huan called Shi Minyan.
Nobody answered.
Fearing the child might get anxious, she still had time before her shift ended, hence she decided to take her to the office.
In the elevator, Shi Huan told her, “Luoluo, once we get to the office, you need to behave and stay quiet, okay? Your parents will pick you up in the evening, understand?”
Little Luoluo obediently nodded, “Okay.”
But when they reached the top floor and the elevator doors opened, a flamboyant man was standing outside.
Little Luoluo blinked her eyes and opened her mouth wide, “Brother-in-law!”
Shi Huan felt thunderstruck.
However, Chu Xiuhuang looked delighted and walked in, pressing the button to close the elevator doors and hit the basement button.
Shi Huan hurriedly said, “Mr. Chu, I need to go back to the office.”
“No need.”
“What do you mean?”
Chu Xiuhuang pursed his lips, his smile, radiant as ever, “Since my niece has come over, shouldn’t I invite her for a feast?”
Niece?
Shi Huan could only feel her eye twitching.
“It’s almost 5 p.m., I’m starving. Aren’t you two hungry?” Chu Xiuhuang spoke in a caring manner, “Luoluo, are you hungry?”
“Hungry!” Little Luoluo nodded eagerly, “Huanhuan, let’s go grab some food together.”
Chu Xiuhuang affectionately patted her little head.
Right.
Her fondness wasn’t in vain.
The red envelopes he had sent earlier had indeed been useful!
People’s hearts can be bought with money, and kids are no exception!
Looking at the time, Shi Huan hesitated and then agreed, “Fine, let’s have dinner, and I can drop her home afterwards.”
“OK.”

In the underground garage, Chu Xiuhuang got into the back seat of the car with Little Luoluo.
Shi Huan was in charge of driving.
When they reached the restaurant he’d mentioned, a waiter came up to greet them as they entered.
He must have recognized Chu Xiuhuang because he immediately bowed at an exaggerated ninety-degree angle and said, “Welcome, Young Master Chu!”
Little Luoluo, clutching Shi Huan’s hand, curiously watched the waiter.
With her delicate features, dressed in a pink cashmere coat with polka dots, she was so adorable with her wide, innocent eyes that the waiter couldn’t help but sneak glances at her.
Young Master Chu actually brought a mother and daughter to dinner!
The woman may be ordinary-looking, but the little girl is genuinely beautiful. No wonder they say “daughters take after their fathers.”
However…
How did this woman ensnare Young Master Chu?

The private dining room on the second floor.
When it was time to order, Chu Xiuhuang asked, “What do you want to eat?”
Little Luoluo didn’t say a word.
Therefore, Shi Huan said, “Luoluo, tell us what you want to eat.”
With her mouth open, Little Luoluo promptly said, “Braised pork! I want braised pork!”
Shi Huan: “…”
This little foodie!
Chu Xiuhuang smiled, “Luoluo, do you really love braised pork that much?”
Little Luoluo eagerly nodded her head, “The braised pork that Huanhuan makes is the best!”
“Just like me, I also like braised pork.” With beautiful fingers deftly manipulating, Chu Xiuhuang turned a knowing look towards Shi Huan, “You should make braised pork for me more often.”
Shi Huan coughed lightly and pretended not to hear.
Chu Xiuhuang then asked, “Little Huanhuan, what do you want to eat?”
“Whatever.”
“There’s no dish called ‘whatever’ here.”
The corners of Shi Huan’s mouth twitched.
So Chu Xiuhuang switched his attack to Little Luoluo, “Luoluo, do you know what your sister likes to eat?”
This little girl had received a large red envelope from him!
Indeed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Huanhuan likes to eat abalone mushroom!” Little Luoluo blurted out.
“Abalone mushroom?” Chu Xiuhuang’s elegant eyebrows arched. When he looked at Shi Huan again, his thin lips curved into a smirk, and there was a trace of playful banter in his eyes, “So, Little Huanhuan has such a strong taste.”
Shi Huan frowned.
What was his expression about?
And…
How come abalone mushroom constitutes a strong taste?
She didn’t get it.

Soon, the waiter began to bring up the exquisite dishes one by one.
During the meal, it was mainly the little girl chattering away, and she seemed to be getting more familiar with Chu Xiuhuang and was talking quite a lot.
By the time they finished eating, it was past six o’clock.
Shi Huan took out her mobile phone and glanced at it.
Those two supposed parents hadn’t even called to check in yet.
Did they really trust her that much with their daughter?
Even if they did trust her, shouldn’t they at least call to check in?
“Damn!”
Suddenly, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a strong smell of smoke and alcohol wafted in, followed by…
“Second brother, you really are eating here?”
After saying that, Nangong Ci, with his mischievous eyes, looked at Shi Huan, “Hey, if it isn’t Secretary Shi?”
Left with no choice, Shi Huan greeted him, “Doctor Nangong.”
When he finally noticed Little Luoluo, Nangong Ci uttered another “Damn,” “Second brother, this can’t be your illegitimate daughter? She’s grown so big?”
Chu Xiuhuang: “…”
Shi Huan: “…”
Little Luoluo blinked her beautiful big eyes, and remembering what Chu Xiuhuang had told her, she opened her mouth and said, “Brother-in-law said that he is my brother-in-law.”
At that comment, Nangong Ci’s cigarette fell straight to the floor.
Shi Huan helplessly touched her forehead.
Meanwhile, Chu Xiuhuang raised his eyebrows in satisfaction.
Once outside, Chu Xiuhuang had barely put the little girl in the back seat when Shi Huan closed the car door quickly to prevent Little Luoluo from hearing their conversation.
“Master Chu, can you please not teach the child to talk nonsense?” She didn’t even know when these two became so close, calling each other “brother-in-law” all the time, utterly shocking.
“What nonsense did I talk?” Chu Xiuhuang narrowed his eyes, “Aren’t you my girlfriend? Since you’re my girlfriend, isn’t your sister supposed to call me brother-in-law? Did I say anything wrong?”
