Chapter: 2752
He Zhiqiu felt a mix of shame and anger when she heard Charlie Wade speak. It was embarrassing enough that Charlie had bought her personal clothes, but now he was asking about it directly. This made her feel even more ashamed.
What made her angry was the type of clothes Charlie had chosen. They were either too revealing or completely unwearable. The strap from the top was still hanging awkwardly on her body, making her feel uncomfortable. However, He Zhiqiu understood that Charlie’s actions were unintentional. Even though she was upset, she couldn’t be mad at him, especially since he had saved her life.
Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to respond, “Um, that will be okay.”
Charlie asked, a bit surprised, “Are you sure it’s okay? Didn’t they all fall apart?”
He Zhiqiu blushed and replied, “How do you know?”
Charlie looked a bit embarrassed and said, “I’m really sorry about this. I didn’t think it through when I bought them. I should have gotten a bigger size instead of a small one. A big one would have been easier to deal with. A small one is definitely awkward.”
He Zhiqiu felt her cheeks heat up and didn’t want to keep talking about it.
At that moment, Charlie pulled the underwear he had just bought from his pocket. He wanted to hand it to her, but it felt strange to offer underwear directly. So, he placed it on the dinner table and pushed it toward her, saying awkwardly, “This is new. I made sure to buy it two sizes larger. Do you want to go to the bathroom and change now?”
He Zhiqiu couldn’t believe Charlie had actually taken out the underwear.
He Zhiqiu was surprised when Charlie Wade pulled another piece of underwear from his pocket. What shocked her even more was that it was the same brand she had seen earlier in the car.
“Does this mean Charlie said he had something to do, but really went to buy me underwear? He must be thinking about me,” she thought, feeling very touched.
She hadn’t expected Charlie to be so thoughtful. At that moment, she didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Quickly, she took the underwear he handed her, stood up, blushing, and said, “Thank you, Mr. Ye.” Then, she hurried to the bathroom in the box.
Inside, she quickly took off the ill-fitting underwear. It was uncomfortable, and she was eager to toss it in the trash. But then a thought crossed her mind: this was the first piece of underwear a man had ever given her. So, instead of throwing it away, she carefully rolled it up and kept it.
Next, she took out the new underwear Charlie had bought for her. This one fit perfectly, and she felt relief wash over her. It was like wearing the right size shoes after a long day in the wrong ones.
A few minutes later, when He Zhiqiu stepped out of the bathroom, she felt completely different. Before, she had been cautious and tense, but now, with the new underwear, all her negative feelings faded away. She felt lighter and more at ease.
As she walked out, she held her changed clothes behind her back, nervous about being seen.
Charlie Wade noticed something unusual. The Chanel dress he had bought for He Zhiqiu didn’t have a pocket. Because of this, she didn’t know where to put the dress and ended up carrying it on her back. When she saw Charlie, He Zhiqiu felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Mr. Ye, thank you so much.”
