Shen Lei, after an intense internal struggle, finally changed Li Xiao Yue into a clean set of pajamas. Exhausted, he fell asleep.
The next morning, Shen Lei was awakened by a shriek.
He opened his eyes and saw Li Xiao Yue lying beside him, her large eyes wide with anger. "Shen Lei, you jerk!" she yelled.
"What did you do to me last night?"
Shen Lei realized it had been a long time since he had collected someone's resentment. Seeing Li Xiao Yue puffed up with anger, looking like an angry pufferfish, he found her quite adorable.
He decided to tease her, raising an eyebrow and asking, "What do you think I did to you last night?"
Li Xiao Yue gritted her pearly white teeth and shouted, "You jerk! You pervert! You bastard! You must have done something naughty to me last night! I thought so highly of you, considered you a confidante, and you took advantage of me! You ruined my good impression of you! I hate you..."
"Ding dong! 888 points of resentment received from Li Xiao Yue!"
"Ding dong! 999 points of resentment received from Li Xiao Yue!"
Seeing that Li Xiao Yue was practically about to bite him, Shen Lei pulled out his phone, smirked and said, "Li Xiao Yue, you seem so intelligent, but you're actually quite naive. How could I possibly take advantage of you? Just look at this video..."
Li Xiao Yue took the phone and clicked on the video. She saw herself lying in the bathtub, covered in vomit, looking extremely disheveled.
The video then showed Shen Lei taking off his clothes, showering, and changing into pajamas...
Seeing herself so completely exposed to Shen Lei, Li Xiao Yue blushed deeply, gave him a playful glare, and snorted, "You still say you didn't take advantage of me? You did! At least your eyes took advantage of me, your hands took advantage of me..."
Shen Lei couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head and saying, "My dear, you said you couldn't hold your liquor, so why did you drink so much? You ended up vomiting all over yourself. If I had left that vomit on you all night, wouldn't you have blamed me to death tomorrow? So, I had to take your clothes off and give you a bath. You know, I took a big risk, and you're still blaming me. It's truly like 'a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not recognizing a good heart.'"
Li Xiao Yue's bright eyes gave Shen Lei another huge glare, and she snorted, "You're the dog! You really are! Just tell me what risk you took?"
"Ding dong! 999 points of resentment received from Li Xiao Yue!"
Shen Lei sighed deeply and said, "I haven't officially finalized my divorce with Xie Mei Lan yet. We are still technically married. Giving a stunning beauty like you a bath, taking off your clothes, I was constantly being tested. I was afraid that I would make a mistake, lose control, and commit adultery within my marriage. Tell me, isn't that a big risk? You nearly got me killed..."
His words sounded like he was complaining about Li Xiao Yue, but in reality, he was praising her immense charm, which had almost caused him to make a mistake.
Hearing Shen Lei's words, Li Xiao Yue couldn't help but turn her anger into amusement. She chuckled, "Looks like you didn't actually commit adultery, so I forgive you!"
However, when she thought about her entire body being exposed to Shen Lei, Li Xiao Yue still couldn't help but blush and feel her cheeks burn.
She was a little afraid to meet Shen Lei's gaze. She lowered her head shyly and whispered, "I don't have any clothes to wear. How can I go to work?"
Li Xiao Yue's clothes had been washed in the washing machine the previous night, but because the machine didn't have a drying function, they were still damp and couldn't be worn.
Shen Lei thought for a moment and said, "I'll just buy you a new outfit, the same style as your current one, from the store downstairs."
Li Xiao Yue lowered her head shyly and said, "That's the only way, I'm very grateful."
Shen Lei quickly washed up, changed clothes, and went downstairs to buy clothes for Li Xiao Yue.
He walked into a designer boutique, and a woman in a black uniform, with bold red lips, walked over and said with a smile, "Sir, what can I help you with?"
Shen Lei looked at the woman and recognized her as Gu Jia's friend, Wang Man Ni. She was now working as a sales associate at this brand's boutique.
Although Wang Man Ni was somewhat vain, she had once dumped her boyfriend for being poor.
However, Shen Lei didn't have a particularly bad impression of her.
After all, Shen Lei simply saw Wang Man Ni as a sales associate serving him. He didn't have any intentions of getting involved with her.
As a sales associate, Wang Man Ni was quite competent. She didn't look down on Shen Lei because of his simple attire and greeted him warmly with a smile.
Seeing Wang Man Ni's good attitude, Shen Lei decided to give her a boost in her performance.
He said, "I'm going to buy a few suits for myself and a few dresses for my girlfriend. She's rather petite, she likes hanfu, and she prefers clothes in plain colors."
Wang Man Ni smiled sweetly, "Sir, you have a great physique, you're very refined and handsome. I recommend these suits for you... And for your girlfriend, I recommend these dresses..."
Shen Lei was very satisfied with Wang Man Ni's recommendations and nodded, "Go with your recommendations, then add matching underwear, shirts, sweaters, pants, shoes... Three sets of everything..."
Wang Man Ni quickly put together the outfits. After calculating the total cost, she found that the six outfits would come to nearly 1 million yuan! This was because Shen Lei had asked Wang Man Ni to choose the highest-quality items!
After all, now that Shen Lei was making over ten million yuan a day, he didn't bat an eye at purchases under a million.
After making the recommendations, Wang Man Ni felt a little apprehensive.
Based on Shen Lei's clothing, she estimated that all of his clothes combined probably cost less than 1000 yuan.
So, she was worried that Shen Lei would be like many male customers who come in, try on clothes, and then leave without buying anything.
But to her surprise, Shen Lei very readily pulled out his bank card and swiped it! Wang Man Ni was immediately impressed by Shen Lei. She hadn't expected this gentle, handsome, and low-key man to be so wealthy - spending 1 million yuan on clothes without blinking an eye.
She was especially envious of Shen Lei's girlfriend. What kind of little enchantress was she, to have such good fortune to find a boyfriend who was so refined, handsome, and generous?
Shen Lei was holding so many shopping bags, he couldn't manage them all. He wasn't a three-headed, six-armed being, after all.
Seeing Shen Lei struggling, Wang Man Ni smiled kindly and immediately took some of the bags to help him carry them to his room.
