Ch.274 Can't you be a little romantic? (7)
Not only was Lu Ting's family of three in front of them, but also Song Renze and his son, Song Mu.
Song Renze was also in a suit, while his son, Song Mu, was in a smaller one. He and Tuantuan were sitting next to each other. The boy was seated with a straight back and an aloof expression.
Le Xiao swept a glance at the family of three, the hatred in her eyes unable to extinguish. Zhuang Boshan noticed her undisguised gaze and reminded her, "You should watch yourself. You don't have to hate someone so openly. Their family's here for a show tonight, and the big show is still waiting for them."
Zhuang Boshan was Lin Yueqi's old boss who once broke his contract with her in order to sign with Qin Xue. After Lin Yueqi became famous, Zhuang Boshan tried to sign Lin Yueqi back, but he was disastrously rejected.
When Qin Xue failed miserably and turned into her later appearance, the matter couldn't be removed from Lin Yueqi. After Qin Xue's collapse, Maice was implicated, and their stock prices kept on falling and falling. Zhuang Boshan decided that Lin Yueqi wanted to get back at Maice using Lu Ting's power, so he saw her as an enemy.
Le Xiao's daughter, Liu Xue, also saw Tuantuan. She deliberately said aloud, "Mama, Lu Junyi's dress is the same as mine!"
Le Xiao did not say anything. She was watching the family of three from the corner of her eye.
But Zhuang Boshan took the little girl's chin and teased, "Oh? Little cutie. You're so pretty, who would dare to wear the same dress as you? Besides you, all others are just imitations!"
Other people were afraid of the Lu family, but he, Zhuang Boshan, was not.
Lu Ting was just a rich second generation without any ability, relying on his ancestors' money. He had the Qiancheng Group in his hands, but he may not be able to survive for a long time.
Lu Ting's ears moved when he heard that, but he didn't turn around.
He was a petty person, so he was definitely going to remember this. If he remembered correctly, Zhuang Boshan invited several friends to join him in gambling on the island tonight.
It didn't matter whether the debt was settled sooner or later.
...
When Tuantuan heard Liu Xue's voice in the back room, she looked back, but then she hung her head. She clutched the hem of her skirt in shame, tip of her chin almost sinking into her collarbone.
Lin Yueqi noticed Tuantuan's actions and turned back to look at Le Xiao and her daughter.
She patted Tuantuan's back and leaned down to ask, "What's wrong?"
"Liu Xue's dress is the same as mine, but she's skinny and pretty. I don't look as good as her." Tuantuan's voice was very quiet as she said that, as if she was feeling very ashamed.
Lin Yueqi whispered words of encouragement to her. "Silly girl. Pretty clothes can look the same, but the people wearing the clothes are always different. You two have different figures so you can flaunt different styles. Isn't that a good thing for clothes? And why should you feel inferior because of a dress? Money can buy the same clothes, but money can't buy talent and character. These are what truly makes a person, and they are the clothes that truly adorn you."
"Well..." Tuantuan felt that her Mama's words made a lot of sense, so she nodded. "Mama has a point. Tuantuan will learn and get better every day! Tuantuan will have a dress that is the one and only and most unique one in this world, only for Tuantuan!"
"Yeah!" Lin Yueqi stroked the child's head and turned back to look at Le Xiao, exchanging looks with her.
Tuantuan's dress was specially tailored just for her. As for why Le Xiao had the same one, she couldn't help but think about it.
This woman truly is ruthless. She was clearly aiming for Tuantuan's self-confidence.
Based on traditional beauty values, Liu Xue was better than Tuantuan in her outer appearance. Even though Tuantuan was cute, she was on the heavy side.
It was inevitable that they would compare with each other when two little girls wore the same dress. And, they were raised with the traditional beauty standards, so Tuantuan would definitely feel ashamed.
When she thought of this, Lin Yueqi clenched her fists, causing her knuckles to crack.
