"Okay, we'll see the opera tonight. For now... let's do something else." Lance whispered something to Jack, and Jack's expression abruptly changed—quickly returning to normal—as he took his leave to carry out the command.
Mu Lan felt uneasy, her delicate brows slightly furrowing.
With a wicked glance at her, Lance strode forward, "I'll go ahead first. See you at Yani Shopping Mall."
After Lance left, Mu Lan's unease grew, but this was the first time Lance had asked her out—how could she refuse? She lifted her hand to smooth down the hair by her ear and followed.
In broad daylight, what could Lance do?
After all, she was a lady of the Gu family—didn't the royalty show her a modicum of respect?
...
At Yani Shopping Mall, Lance went on a shopping spree for clothes.
By the time Mu Lan arrived, he had already bought a pile. Mu Lan's heart felt as though it had been slashed by a sharp blade, the pain acute.
He did it on purpose!
