Chapter 232: Aesthetic Overdraft in the ’Extra’ Episodes

Chapter 232

Xu Yan nodded deeply: "Sister is indeed the most impressive!"

Ye Jin didn't want to talk and pinched Xu Yan's cheek.

Xu Yan held his hand, baring a row of small white teeth fiercely as if to bite him.

The Wolf King paid no attention to the human's little teeth attack. He held Xu Yan's cheeks with one hand: "Open your mouth, let me see your teeth."

Xu Yan pursed his lips and shook his head: "Hmph!"

As they playfully bickered, they arrived at the mall and got out of the car in perfect sync.

Xu Yan swung his arms, looking around at the nearby stores.

Ye Jin spotted a clothing store and pinched Xu Yan's face: "Yan Yan, what do you think of that store?"

Xu Yan looked over with a confused expression, then frowned in distaste: "No, let's look around some more."

Ye Jin sighed inwardly as Xu Yan dragged him along. After walking almost halfway around the mall, he finally heard Xu Yan's excited voice: "Ye Jin! Look at this store!"

Ye Jin felt a slight unease, but when he followed his girlfriend's gaze, he found himself surprisingly calm.

"Yan Yan, are you sure you don't want to look elsewhere?"

He really didn't want to tell his dear Yan Yan that the store was clearly meant for elderly customers!

Xu Yan looked at Ye Jin with pleading eyes: "Can't we just take a look inside?"

Ye Jin's heart melted: "Alright, alright, let's go take a look."

Since there were quite a few young people shopping for their elders, the store clerk wasn't too surprised when they entered.

Xu Yan scanned the store with her discerning gaze, finally settling on a sequined floral shirt in one corner.

She tugged at Ye Jin: "Ye Jin, isn't that shirt nice?"

Ye Jin: "...Yan Yan, why don't you send a picture to your family group chat and ask your mom's opinion first?"

The nearby clerk kindly suggested: "Yes, if you're buying clothes for your elders, it's best to get their opinion first."

Xu Yan tried to explain: "I'm not..."

Ye Jin smiled and pulled Xu Yan behind him: "Thank you for the advice."

Xu Yan muttered softly: "I'm not buying clothes for my mom, it's for us."

She reluctantly took out her phone, snapped a picture of the shirt, and sent it to the group chat with a message: "Mom, what do you think of this shirt?"

Ye Jin, not wanting the clerk to give his precious Yan Yan strange looks, led her to a bench in the corner: "Yan Yan, if you really like it, we can buy it."

Xu Yan nodded earnestly: "Okay!"

Just as she was about to say more, the group chat exploded with messages.

Xu Yan played the voice message from Bai Hua, hearing her mother's impatient and somewhat exasperated voice.

"Xu Yan! Don't buy clothes like that! Go to a different store! Even your grandmother wouldn't wear this!"

Xu Yan meekly replied: "Mom, I'm with Ye Jin, we're choosing couple outfits..."

Bai Hua responded quickly: "...Buy it if you must, but if you dare to wear it outside, our mother-daughter relationship is over."

"Don't choose the clothes! Let Ye Jin choose! Let Ye Jin choose!!!"

Xu Yi finally chimed in: "Couple outfits?" He mused, "@Xu Mo, Xu Mo, why don't you have a girlfriend yet?"

Xu Mo replied calmly: "I love my work."

Bai Hua's voice was full of disdain: "Don't wait until your sister gets married while you still don't have a girlfriend!"

Xu Yan hurriedly interjected: "Wait a minute, weren't we talking about clothes? Don't change the subject!"

Bai Hua's tone turned cold: "I've said what needed to be said. Just one thing: don't choose the clothes. I think you've used up all your taste in finding a partner!"

Xu Yan: "..." *whimper*

She hung her head dejectedly: "But why?"

Ye Jin's heart ached: "Yan Yan, buy whatever you want, it's okay."

Xu Yan sighed: "Ye Jin, let's just go to the store you mentioned earlier."

Ye Jin felt at a loss: "Yan Yan..."

Xu Yan looked utterly dejected: "Why don't I like the same things you all do?"

Ye Jin led Xu Yan back to the cashier: "Please package all the clothes in the store and deliver them to this address. Someone will sign for them. I'll pay by card."

Xu Yan looked bewildered: "Y-Ye Jin, what are you doing?"

Ye Jin looked at her seriously: "Yan Yan, maybe your taste is different from ours, but that doesn't mean you can't like what you like. If Auntie Bai doesn't want us to wear these outside, we'll buy them all and wear them at home, okay?"

It took a moment for Xu Yan to process this, but she finally responded slowly: "Okay!"

Her eyes welled up with emotion, as if she'd been wronged: "Ye Jin, you're the best!"

Ye Jin ruffled her hair: "Come on, let's look at some other clothes."

His taste was more in line with popular fashion. After picking out a few white dress shirts and t-shirts with cartoon prints, their clothes shopping was complete.

This time, they had the store deliver the packages to the pub. Ye Jin gave a few instructions before taking Xu Yan out for dinner.

Xu Yan was in particularly high spirits, almost bouncing as she walked.

Ye Jin watched her, unable to suppress a tender smile.

Given that Xu Yan had mentioned buying couple outfits with Ye Jin in the group chat, Bai Hua worried that Ye Jin might spoil Xu Yan by buying her everything. So, with a wave of her hand, she invited the couple over for dinner that evening.

Ye Jin took Xu Yan back to the pub, where they changed into adorable matching outfits before heading to the Xu family home.

Xu Yan couldn't stop laughing at the cartoon pig on Ye Jin's shirt: "Ye Jin, you look... not so serious, hahaha!"

There was something endearingly mismatched about seeing this tall, occasionally cold-looking man in such a cute outfit.

Ye Jin didn't mind at all. He patted Xu Yan's head: "Send a message to Mu Heng and the others, tell them we're having dinner at your place tonight."

Xu Yan grinned and obediently took out her phone: "Got it!"

She tapped away on her phone while Ye Jin held her close as they slowly made their way to her family's home.

When Bai Hua opened the door for them, she first looked them up and down before nodding with satisfaction. "Come in. Dinner's almost ready."

Ye Jin let go of Xu Yan's hand and asked, "Auntie, is there anything I can help with?"

Bai Hua waved her hand dismissively. "No need. Everything's pretty much prepared. Why don't you two sit down and rest for a bit?"

Xu Mo came downstairs with a water glass in hand, eager to stir things up. "Yan, didn't Ye Jin buy you any clothes you like?"

Xu Yan lifted her chin proudly. "He did! He bought me tons of stuff!"
