I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!
Chapter 654: Bizarre

Chapter 654: Chapter 654: Bizarre

Lin Qi looked utterly bored and deep in thought. Shen Dong watched her and couldn’t help but smile; this girl really knew how to perform. He had been worried that she might be bullied, but now it seemed there was no need for concern at all. It was already very good that she wasn’t the one bullying others.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong? Just you wait and see, let me give you a show, and watch what that woman looks like in it. See if she looks as good as me. I can guarantee you, no other woman can pull it off like I can. You do have good taste indeed, knowing that dress was meant for me."

After saying that, Lin Qi wore a particularly smug expression. That was typical of her; sometimes she really liked to joke around. Though the words might sound arrogant, you could tell she was joking, and most people wouldn’t take it seriously. Now, she said it all with a beaming smile.

Shen Dong raised an eyebrow; now he was curious to see what Lin Yun looked like in it. Just as this thought crossed his mind, the curtain at the door parted, and a beautiful woman walked out. It was clear to see that it was Lin Yun. While she looked stunning and the makeup suited her perfectly, something about the outfit felt distinctly odd, an oddity that was hard to place. For now, he’d just have to wait and see. The figure had certainly caught everyone’s attention. If Lin Qi hadn’t drawn all the gazes with her outfit earlier, this one would definitely have looked pretty on Lin Yun, and would surely have earned applause.

But, having seen the more beautiful person wear it before, Lin Yun’s attempt seemed just so-so. In fact, it felt rather dull, as though Lin Qi in that outfit would have looked much better. Everyone thought this but no one showed it, fearing it would upset Lin Yun.

It seemed better to just keep quiet and say nothing. Moreover, they were familiar with Lin Yun’s abilities, particularly her excellent dancing. Perhaps one day she would climb higher socially; such a crucial talent wasn’t someone to offend lightly, so everyone remained silent.

Lin Yun felt a bit out of place the moment she put on the outfit.

But, wanting to outshine the other woman, she forced herself into it, fully aware that this style was far inferior compared to what she usually wore. But she was determined to make a point, not giving up until she did.

This led to her current predicament. When Lin Yun stepped out, she noticed that the looks she received weren’t of awe, nor was there any applause. It was clear that she wasn’t a success, definitely not as good-looking as Lin Qi in it, and this made her incredibly angry. How could this be possible, when she also wasn’t bad-looking?

Why couldn’t she pull off this type of outfit? She felt like she might break down, but still thought she should show herself to Shen Dong, hoping his taste might differ from others’. If he found her attractive in the outfit, then it would be a win for her. Thus, she approached Shen Dong with a swaying, slender waist.

Lin Yun’s behavior disgusted Lin Qi. So she was just a seductress, huh? Why even compare with her then? There was no point. While the outfit was seductive on her, Lin Qi made it absolutely stunning instead of just passable like Lin Yun. If Shen Dong fell for such charms...

Then he really had no clue about beauty. Thinking this made her even more composed, standing there silently. Shen Dong didn’t understand why Lin Yun suddenly approached him; he hadn’t said a thing, and now seemed to have drawn the fire. Feeling resigned, he thought it looked terrible. Why couldn’t she accept his opinion?

She kept arguing, even trying to persuade him to buy it. This was a joke; not everyone suited this kind of outfit, and this mess was instigated by her. He hated these kinds of scenes the most, swearing inwardly that if it happened again, he would straightforwardly give her the boot.

She might look good and have a nice figure, and while these traits were adored in the bar scene, if she wasn’t obedient, then forget it. He wasn’t keen on keeping such a woman around, as it would only disturb his main business. Shen Dong thought this, showing nothing outwardly.

All he did was give a very cool "Hmm", and left it at that. Anyone who didn’t know any better might think Shen Dong was angry. Lin Yun felt disappointed; she hadn’t expected such a reaction. Somehow, she should have attracted some attention, but this man seemed genuinely uninterested, which was really depressing. Lin Qi found the whole situation hilarious.

So her seduction had failed yet again. Such a woman really didn’t qualify as her rival, fighting over what? It was as if she lived in some royal palace—although even a palace wouldn’t have so much intrigue.

"Mr. Shen, are you so cold because I embarrassed you, so now you’re acting this way? It wasn’t intentional. You know how it is with girls—when we see beautiful clothes, we can’t help but be drawn to them. That was the case just now; I couldn’t help but speak up.

It wasn’t to argue with you or everyone else, not to stir up trouble; I purely wanted to try this outfit on. If you dislike it, Mr. Shen...

I won’t do it again. This was an impulsive act on my part, maybe because I don’t look good in this outfit. I won’t do it again, Mr. Shen, and I hope you can forgive me."

Having said this, she genuinely lowered her head in a crestfallen manner, appearing as if everyone was bullying her. If a stranger had walked in, they would have been utterly shocked by her pitiable appearance.

Someone might have even walked over with a softer heart to offer a few comforting words. Fortunately, the women present had seen through Lin Yun’s true nature, and just laughed silently, particularly Lin Qi who thought this woman was just too funny. With her around, the upcoming days were sure not to be boring.
