All eyes turned to Tomoko Suzuki.
"What are you looking at me for?"
Suzuki Tomoko, with a confident and composed expression, said:
"Actually, I've already asked the family fashion designer to prepare a suit for Xia Ye. Oh, and Ran has one too, similar to the one Sonoko is wearing~"
"Okay!"
Yukiko said angrily:
"Why didn't you say so sooner when you had everything prepared? You just watched us argue for so long, weren't you? You just wanted to make things worse, didn't you?"
"Um... there's one for me too?"
Xiaolan was a little surprised, and her pretty face flushed with embarrassment as she said:
"Actually, I can just wear my uniform..."
"How can that be done!"
Sonoko, who was standing next to her, immediately retorted:
"This is a wedding! How can she just wear a uniform? My Xiaolan has to dress up beautifully, otherwise how can she outshine everyone else? If you ask me, she should outshine the bride!"
"Garden~"
Xiaolan rolled her eyes at her best friend.
However, he no longer refused the gifts from the mother and daughter.
only--
"I'll tell Ms. Sayuri what you just said, and then you can explain it to her yourself!"
"do not want!"
The two sisters are bantering here.
Tomoko Suzuki had already picked up her phone and given the instructions:
"Bring in what I've prepared!"
A short while later, several bodyguards in black carried in two clothes racks full of clothes.
"Why so many?"
Everyone present was shocked.
There were a total of ten suits and three women's dresses on the two hangers, all kinds of styles, and they all looked very valuable!
"Since we've already ordered them, we might as well make a few more sets!"
Tomoko Suzuki waved for the bodyguards in black to leave, then pointed to the suits on the hanger and said:
"Alright, you guys pick one out for him."
"and many more!"
Seeing that these women were eager to speak their minds, Xia Ye tried to struggle.
"Let me choose!"
He planned to pick something randomly and pretend he really liked it, thus avoiding what would happen next—a scene far more terrifying than a battlefield!
"turn down!"
Yukiko waved her hand, directly rejecting the idea:
"You should probably give up on your taste!"
"Yup!"
This time, even Xiaolan and Mingmei, the two usually understanding and well-behaved girls, didn't side with Xia Ye.
"Row!"
Xia Ye gritted her teeth and resigned herself to her fate.
"You'd better be on the same page!"
however--
How can this be.
The women present, regardless of age, all had their own personalities, so how could they possibly agree on anything?
then--
Less than half an hour.
Xia Ye has already tried on all ten suits twice.
Why twice?
Don't ask that question, Xia Ye doesn't want to answer it!
Xiao Lan had already changed into a cute and elegant dress during the break from giving her opinions, while a group of women on Xia Ye's side were still chattering away.
but--
It's not like we've achieved nothing after all this time.
Currently, a flamboyant faction led by Yukiko and a low-key faction led by Eri Kisaki have emerged on the field.
The flamboyant style advocated wearing that deep blue suit, symbolizing the azure starry sky. That thing was both gorgeous and eye-catching, adorned with gold threads and silver stars. Wearing it was like draping the night sky over your body. Combined with Xia Ye's muscular physique, it was simply amazing.
Those who prefer a low profile are much more pragmatic.
I hope Xia Ye wears that black suit with white stripes, which is all about understated luxury and sophistication.
"All right!"
Seeing that opinions could not be reached, Xia Ye decisively displayed the "authority" of the head of the family:
"It's almost 8:30 now, and you all still have things to do. Why do you seem so free?"
"I've decided, I'll choose this black one. It's not like I'm getting married, why would I wear something so eye-catching?"
"Humph!"
Yukiko, who inexplicably lost to Eri Kisaki, huffed:
"Everyone just wants you to look smart, after all, it's a wedding, and maybe you can even snag a few beautiful girls!"
"I don't have that kind of free time!"
Xia Ye said speechlessly:
"I'd rather spend more time with you guys instead of that~"
"cut!"
Yukiko pouted:
You better keep your word!
Oh, right~
Sonoko suddenly interjected:
"Xia Ye, you just said you wanted to dress modestly since it's not your wedding. Does that mean you'll dress extravagantly for your own wedding? And—who's the bride?"
"Ah this..."
Sonoko's dark green eyes sparkled with a mischievous glint, as if she wanted to stir up trouble. Natsume was completely stumped by this deadly question.
"Cough cough!"
Tomoko Suzuki coughed lightly and said casually:
"Yukiko, Eri, the opera is about to start, we should leave, or we'll be late!"
"okay!"
Yukiko and Eri readily complied, greeted everyone, and then quickly slipped away...elegantly.
"Mom, Sister~"
Ai picked up her Prada handbag and calmly greeted Elena and Akemi:
"We should go too!"
After saying goodbye to Xia Ye, Xiao Lan, and Yuanzi, the family of three left the villa hand in hand.
The topic of marriage is a bit sensitive for this family, and no one wants to discuss it for the time being.
In a moment.
The once lively living room was now empty except for three people.
"that....."
Sonoko raised her hand timidly:
"Did I say the wrong thing?"
"No~"
Xia Ye smiled wryly, touched her little face, and said self-deprecatingly:
"This is all my fault, it has nothing to do with you~"
"It's getting late, we should get going!"
"Okay~".
Chapter 255 Xiaolan: Elbow, let's register tomorrow and have the wedding the day after!
The wedding venue is not in Beika Town.
Instead, it's in the neighboring city of Beika.
After cleaning up.
Xia Ye drove Xiao Lanyuanzi that way.
On the way, Xiaolan and Yuanzi chatted in the back row. Xia Ye didn't pay attention to what they were talking about, but their chattering was enough to make her feel happy.
but--
"Why isn't Xia Ye saying anything? What are you thinking about?"
Sonoko looked up at Natsume in front of her. Normally, when she chatted with Ran, he would always chime in with a few words. Why was he so quiet today, not saying a single word?
"I was thinking about the question you just asked!"
Xia Ye held the steering wheel without turning around.
"what?"
Sonoko stuck out her tongue, feeling a little guilty.
"Actually, you don't need to think too much about it. I was just joking. You don't need to take it to heart."
Sonoko felt a little regretful.
It's all my fault for being so careless with my words; marriage is a very sensitive topic for Xia Ye.
Marriage? With whom?
He searched around Xia Ye's surroundings but couldn't find a single woman suitable for him to marry right now.
Ai is his official girlfriend, but she's a little girl now. If he were to actually hold a wedding with her, Natsume's colleagues at the Metropolitan Police Department could immediately charge him with being a lolicon and send him to jail for a few years.
Those older women won't do either; they all have husbands. Ugh, even someone as carefree as Sonoko couldn't help but mentally complain at this thought.
Xia Ye's wickedness is really obvious!
Oh, and Xiaolan too.
Ran is a good choice, since Xia Ye likes her the most besides Ai. However, if it's Ran, although I have no objection, Ai will definitely have some reservations.
As for myself.
I don't have that idea for now.
