Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Young Master Seems to Have Developed a Love for Beauty Lately

"Lu Youbang, he’s really gone awry!" Deep anger filled Lin’s voice. "When he was in our village, he seemed like such an introverted and delicate young man, polite and good at his studies. How did he end up like this after coming to the Imperial Capital?"

"It’s not that; his roots are bad. With parents like his, how could he turn out good? It’s just that no one could see through his disguise in the village. Once he got to the Imperial Capital and met no one he knew, he started to show his true colors," Aunt Lin added.

"He took your family’s money, leaving you unable to pay even your own tuition, and now he has the gall to accuse your family!" Aunt Lin, though fond of gossip, was a person with clear loves and hates.

It angered her to think of how honest Lu Youxi’s parents were, and yet Lu Youbang at school had portrayed them as narrow-minded and scheming people.

"My classmates, most of them believe me, but a small part still believes him," Lu Youxi said. "Anyway, I can’t let him slander me like this. So, when my grandparents and Aunt Yao come over, everything will become clear."

"I get it, so you want them to go to the Imperial Capital, but you don’t want your grandparents and Aunt Yao to know the real reason they’re going, right? When they meet Lu Youbang, his lies will expose him," Aunt Lin finally understood.

"That’s right, exactly," Lu Youxi said with a smile and a nod.

"Okay, leave it to me. I guarantee I’ll handle this clearly and straightforwardly for you," Aunt Lin promised, patting her chest.

Lu Youxi hung up the phone and saw her three roommates staring at her, dumbfounded.

All three of them gave Lu Youxi a thumbs up in unison: "Clever!"

Lu Youxi was silent for a while, then asked, "Have you guys eaten yet?"

"No, we were waiting for you to come back to eat. Didn’t you say you were coming back for a meal?" Lu Xiaohui said.

"Let’s go, let’s go eat," Lu Youxi stood up and said.

At the same time, Zhou Shuyan, accompanied by Yu Zeqin, went to the office rented for his team outside, to hear the team’s progress report.

After the meeting, the two had a working lunch outside.

"What’s the style of young people’s clothing these days?" Zhou Shuyan suddenly asked Yu Zeqin.

Yu Zeqin was stunned for a moment, then responded, "CEO, you’re only 25 years old, not old at all."

Zhou Shuyan: "..."

Having lost his father early, he was groomed by Old Master Zhou from a young age, familiarizing himself with the family and corporate affairs.

Maturing too early, spending all day in suits and leather shoes, with a serious expression, he had forgotten that he was only 25 and still a young man.

"Thanks for the reminder," Zhou Shuyan said, nodding towards the impassive face across from him. "That’s why I just realized that aside from these formal outfits, I don’t have any clothes suited for my age outside of work."

"I’m not very clear either," Yu Zeqin had to admit. "I spend more time working overtime and less time resting."

"Are you complaining that your work hours are a bit long?" Zhou Shuyan raised his eyebrows.

"No, I mean I don’t have much experience with casual clothes. As for the working hours, after all, the salary and bonuses you give me are quite considerable, so I have no complaints," Yu Zeqin said expressionlessly.

Zhou Shuyan saw that he wouldn’t get any helpful information from Yu Zeqin.

He simply went to the mall after getting off work.

Choosing a men’s clothing store with casual looks displayed in its window, he went inside.

"Sir, what do you need?" a salesperson approached him.

Zhou Shuyan took a private glance and pointed directly at the poster on the wall, where the male model wore something quite nice.

A T-shirt with jeans, simple and convenient.

"I want something like this, you can mix and match for me," Zhou Shuyan said. "Don’t be limited to the styles in the poster."

Seeing Zhou Shuyan’s attire, the salesperson knew a big spender had arrived, and happily put together ten sets for him.

There were shirts and T-shirts.

There were jeans and cargo pants.

"Try these on and see how they fit, and if they’re not right, I’ll get you something else," the salesperson said with a smile.

Zhou Shuyan tried them on and, indeed, they weren’t bad.

He looked at himself in the fitting room mirror and nodded, affirming his body’s ability to serve as a clothes hanger.

"I’ll take all ten sets," Zhou Shuyan told the salesperson after coming out.

"Okay," the salesperson walked faster, almost as if afraid Zhou Shuyan would change his mind if she delayed.

Xu Jingmin saw Zhou Shuyan return carrying several bags with clothing brand logos and initially thought her son had suddenly become so considerate to buy her clothes.

Then she worried that if her son, with his straightforward male aesthetic, had chosen something she didn’t like, what would she do?

Not wearing them was out of the question, as it would hurt her son’s feelings.

But if she wore them and they looked bad, she really couldn’t go out in them.

As she was tangled in thought, she heard Aunt Yao say, "Young master, why did you buy so many men’s clothes?"

Men’s clothes?

Xu Jingmin took a closer look and recognized them. "That’s the casual wear brand! You never wear casual clothes, why suddenly now?"

Aunt Yao said with a chuckle, "The young master is only 25. Usually, a suit is too formal; it makes him look older than his actual age. Perhaps it’s time to wear some younger-looking clothes."

Zhou Shuyan suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to ask Aunt Yao, "Aunt Yao, do you think I look older than I actually am?"

"No, no," Aunt Yao waved her hands and said, "It’s just that you always wear a suit and keep such a stern face, looking so imposing, which makes you seem a bit older than you are. But actually, you don’t look old, not at all."

Zhou Shuyan: "..."

Aunt Yao, do you hear what you’ve just said?

Once Zhou Shuyan went upstairs, Xu Jingmin asked Aunt Yao in a whisper, "What’s going on with him? Suddenly he’s taking notice of his own appearance? And buying so many clothes for himself? Usually, those clothes are delivered directly to him by the brands to his size, and he couldn’t be bothered to pick the styles."

"Yes, I also think the young master has become more interested in looking good lately," Aunt Yao said quietly. "When I was tidying up his room, I found that there were quite a few skincare products on his table."

"Hisss!" Xu Jingmin gasped, "He couldn’t have suddenly realized that he... likes... likes men, could he?"

"That can’t be," Aunt Yao felt Xu Jingmin’s imagination was running wild. "You’ve always told the young master to pay attention to skincare, to sun protection, and he never listened."

"That’s true. If he really liked men, he’d have started paying attention a long time ago," Xu Jingmin reasoned, touching the side of her fingernail. "So why is he suddenly paying attention now? And it’s all his own initiative; he didn’t even need me to remind him. Today he even went and bought so many clothes on his own."
