1404 It Was Not Like He Was Seeing Her In These Clothes For The First Time

However, it was also Long Xuans palm strike that had forced the venom out of his body.

Therefore, he was only in a coma now because of internal injuries.

After hearing the physicians diagnosis, Lin Qingyuan exhaled in relief. Thats good to hear. Thank you!

Long Xuan narrowed his eyes in displeasure at the sight of her smiling face.

Why? Do you care about him that much? His words were dripping with sarcasm.

Lin Qingyuan stared at him in bewilderment and, after a moment, said, Chen Xuping got himself into this state because he was trying to save me. Its only reasonable that I show some concern for him. Remembering what Bai He had said in the suburbs, she added, Dont you think I should show concern for him, Hubby?

Long Xuan, who had been seething with jealousy, was stunned when he heard her nickname for him. Narrowing his eyes, he asked, What did you call me?

Lin Qingyuan fidgeted bashfully. The nickname had slipped out of her mouth unknowingly just now; it would be embarra.s.sing to say it again in front of him.

However, when she met the mans predatory gaze, her lips moved and she said softly, Hubby.

Long Xuans face softened, and the gloom in his heart vanished. Taking her hand, he looked her over and frowned in disapproval when he noticed that she was dressed in mens clothes. What on earth are you wearing?

Lin Qingyuan immediately lowered her head and gave her outfit a quick scan.

Was there anything wrong with her clothes?

She had dressed like this during their previous visit to Peony Pavilion too. It was not like he was seeing her in these clothes for the first time.

Whats wrong with what Im wearing? She pouted in annoyance.

Its all dirtyyou dont look like a proper lady at all, Long Xuan chided her. Before she could throw a fit, he ordered Bai He to look after Chen Xuping, then led Lin Qingyuan out of the medical hall by the hand. We need to get you changed at once.

Before Lin Qingyuan could protest, he pulled her into the nearest clothing store.

Then, he swiftly picked out an entire set of clothes and asked the worker to wrap them up.

Lin Qingyuan wanted to object. She had not even tried them onwhat if they did not fit her?

However, one look at the mans determined face was enough to stop her from voicing her doubt despite the dissatisfaction in her heart.

How could he buy her clothes without letting her pick them out herself or try them on? What a domineering man!

After that, Long Xuan chose an inn, booked a guest room, and ordered the server to bring them hot water.

Dont let your foot get wetjust give it a simple wipe. Ill be outside guarding the door. Long Xuan stuffed the cloth bundle containing the new clothes into Lin Qingyuans arms and pushed her into the room.

Lin Qingyuan was still in a daze as she watched the door close behind him.

She was astonished by his unusual behavior.

For the first time, he did not follow her into the room.

However, the thought that he was outside guarding the door put her at ease.

After unwrapping the new clothes, she undressed herself, wrung a towel out, and wiped herself from head to toe. Then, she changed into the clothes Long Xuan bought for her.

It was a light purple gown. Although it was quite formal, the modern design added a touch of friskiness to it.

What surprised her the most was how well it fitted hereven more so than the specially tailored gowns that she usually ordered.

She could not help wondering privately how Long Xuan knew her measurements so well.

After getting dressed, she opened the door and walked out.

Long Xuan was leaning against the banister outside, his face impa.s.sive. He seemed to be thinking about something.

When he heard the door open behind him, he turned around nonchalantly.

Amazement flashed through his eyes at the sight of the woman standing in the doorway,
