Chapter 156: When will 152 have its second update?
Xu Xi went first, and Qin Xi, holding clothes, went back to change into the trousers that Li Xianglu had tailored for him, as well as a short-sleeved shirt. Once he changed, he waited at the cabin’s door.
Several sounds came from inside before the cabin’s door was opened, and Qin Xi’s eyes lit up.
Li Xianglu was wearing a casual cheongsam with slight cuffs. It was made of real silk bought from a Shanghai department store, in pale pink, just below the knee, and slightly slit.
Her hair was tied in a bun at the back of her head. She wore no necklace or earrings, just a glass bangle on her wrist, and a pair of white low-heel leather shoes on her feet. Li Xianglu’s face always looked rather childish, often revealing a bewildered expression, which made her seem not fully grown-up. Her attire resembled a child dressing in adult’s clothes, but far from being odd, it was indescribably pretty.
When Li Xianglu saw the amazed look from Qin Xi, she proudly tilted her little chin up, extending her hand to link arms with him as they walked toward the corridor.
Qin Xi slightly bowed his head and sniffed, a faint orchid fragrance; the girl had sprayed on perfume.
The large dining room on the lower level to the west was available to all who had bought cruise tickets, offering buffet meals three times a day and a late-night snack. Drinks were out-of-pocket.
Being young is a capital on its own. Under the dazzling lights, the two attracted much attention—one tall and one petite, one mature and one dainty.
Li Xianglu was unfazed, calmly finding a seat with Qin Xi. She placed her knife and fork crossed on the plate before heading over to the food area with a large plate to make her choice.
