Chapter 873: The scapegoat
Chapter 873 The Blame-Baker
As expected, Xia Ling smiled a little ferociously: "Destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces."
She didn’t want Su Tang to keep these clothes. How could her man’s things be left in another woman’s hands? Even if you don't wear it, you still have to grab it. Yes, he is such a robber.
She leaned over, opened the large and small paper bags, took a casual look at the small silk dress that Su Tang bought her, then threw it aside, and concentrated on rummaging through Li Lei's clothes. There are suits with very exquisite workmanship, and they are thoughtfully matched with shirts, ties, and cufflinks.
Xia Ling felt even more unhappy and sneered coldly: "Hmph, you are showing your courtesy indiscriminately."
Li Lei had a headache and coaxed her with gentle words: "How come the one you bought looks so good?"
"You haven't seen what I bought and you know it looks good?" Xia Ling felt a little happy, but she also knew that these were sweet words and couldn't help but expose him.
Li Lei continued to coax: "I believe in your vision."
Xia Ling felt a little happier, and a smile bloomed on her lips.
She rummaged through the pile of clothes critically. It had to be said that Su Tang had very good aesthetic taste. From texture, color to style, everyone was amazed. But...she dug out the size label from a pile of wrapping paper bags and looked at it. It was one size smaller than the size she sent to the tailor.
"I'm just telling you," Xia Ling said proudly, "She still insists on making a suit for you. She doesn't even know if the size is too small. Suits are no different from other things. If they are bigger or smaller, they feel completely different. That kind of thing. How can you wear clothes that don't fit?" Now, he even had a reason to reject Li Rui, saying that the clothes his mother sent didn't fit and couldn't be worn, which was a perfect solution to the little kid's clamoring to wear parent-child clothes. Installation problem.
Li Lei also smiled: "Even if it fits me, I won't wear it."
Xia Ling was in a high mood. It was so wonderful that she knew things but her love rival didn't. She happily handed the paper bag she brought to Li Lei and said, "Take a look, do you like it?"
Li Lei took it and opened it. What came into view was a very gorgeous haze-colored suit and dress. It had a rare color and texture, and had a special charm. He was not very particular about dressing up at first, but his eyes lit up after seeing such beautiful clothes. So what if Su Tang had good taste? It’s just the accumulation of previous experience. The only one who can truly create a unique style is Xiao Ling.
“I like it very much,” he said to Xia Ling, “This is the best suit I have ever received.”
Xia Ling felt a hint of sweetness in her heart and urged him: "Put it on and let me see."
Li Lei did not avoid her. He took off his clothes in front of her in the office and put on the beautiful haze-colored suit. He was born handsome and looked good no matter what he wore, especially when he wore such unusual and provocative clothes, he really looked energetic and handsome, making people blush and heartbeat.
Xia Ling unconsciously reached out to hold her cheek and looked at him without blinking. She was really more handsome than she imagined. "Turn around and show me." She said unconsciously.
Li Lei actually turned around in a circle and said with a smile, "Do you like it?"
She nodded vigorously, with a look of infatuation on her face, and secretly made up her mind to dress him up well in the future. If such a handsome man didn't change three sets of clothes a day, he would be simply overbearing.
"She's tall, has long legs, and her chest muscles are very strong..." Xia Ling continued to hold her face up with starry eyes, "Paired with the clothes I picked, it's perfect! Wait...that's not right."
Suddenly, she stopped.
Li Lei was confused: "What's wrong?"
She frowned slightly, stepped forward, stretched out her slender white fingers and gently touched his shoulders, and then touched his waist: "It seems a little big..." Her voice was a little heavy, as she had been a doctor for two lifetimes. A big star, her research on clothes is as good as anyone's. No matter what kind of clothes, as soon as she puts them on, she can immediately find out whether the size is suitable. And the suit in front of her was "just one size too big..." She even had dark eyes this time.
“No way,” the straight student Li Xiaolei said without realizing it, “It’s obviously my new measurement, so I asked Arnold to send it over. There’s no way it’s wrong.”
“You’re right, you’ll know after you try it on.” She bent down, picked up a random piece of clothing from the pile of clothes Su Tang had sent, and said to him, “You can put it on and try it.”
Li Lei was in a daze. She had already taken off his suit and put on the one given by Su Tang.
This time, not too loose, not too tight, just right.
“How does she know your size?!” Classmate Xia Xiaoling went crazy.
"I, I don't know either." Li Lei was also confused. Although Su Tang bought most of his clothes in the past, since he got together with Xia Ling, in order to avoid suspicion, he had not let her go for a long time. Su Tang took care of his personal affairs. "Even if Su Tang has my size, it should be the old size..."
As he spoke, Li Lei suddenly stopped talking.
Yes, it is true that Su Tang only has the old size on his hand, but that woman has a delicate mind. Maybe just like he can tell a woman's measurements at a glance, Su Tang can also tell his precise size at a glance? After all, she had been the one buying clothes for him since he was a child. Doesn't she know exactly how his figure has changed over the years?
Xia Ling didn't think that deeply. She just stared at him and asked, "Tell me! Did you leak the size?"
"I really don't have one." How could Li Lei dare to admit it, let alone tell Xia Ling that Su Tang could tell his size at a glance, because the cute classmate Xia Xiaoling couldn't tell! Isn't this meant to irritate her?
Li Lei racked his brains and came up with a far-fetched explanation: "A coincidence, it must be a coincidence."
"How could it be a coincidence?!" Xia Ling was angry, "Why did the one she made for you fit so well, but the one I made for you was one size too big? Do you hate me and don't want to get engaged to me, so you deliberately take advantage of Su? Tang came to stimulate me? Did you deliberately give her the correct size and leave the wrong one to me?”
Classmate Li Xiaolei had no place to complain, so he blinked and looked at her: "Am I such a cold-blooded, ruthless and heartless person?"
“That’s you! Woo hoo hoo.”
Then classmate Li Xiaolei coaxed her for a long time...
His wife-to-be is becoming more and more arrogant, but he is happy with it, knowing in his heart that she cares too much and is making trouble unreasonably. If she was as cold and distant as when they first met a few years ago, he would not even cry. Too late. He hugged her gently and said all the sweet words before she finally calmed down.
"Then what's going on?" She sniffed, knowing that she was being unreasonable, but she enjoyed the feeling of being pampered by him and stayed in his arms, unwilling to leave.
“Perhaps Arnold made a mistake?” Li Xiaolei racked his brains and finally found a scapegoat.
"Yes, it's Arnold!" Xia Ling's eyes lit up and she thought it was very possible, so she urged him to call Arnold into the office.
As soon as the tower-like strong man Arnold walked into the office, he noticed that the atmosphere was wrong. Mr. BOSS and the future Mrs. BOSS looked at each other with strange and solemn expressions.
