\u201cI need a partner. How about you come with me to rob a bank and act as my lookout? We\u2019ll split the money fifty-fifty. Sound good?\u201d<\/p>\n

Lan Ruoruo frowned and replied, \u201cI\u2019m a law-abiding citizen. I don\u2019t do illegal things.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, if I can\u2019t find a partner, I won\u2019t rob a bank. I\u2019ll just rob you instead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei\u2019s shamelessness made Lan Ruoruo even more irritated. She snapped, \u201cMen like you shouldn\u2019t fall in love. You\u2019d only end up hurting the girl. And Sister Tong even asked me to help find you a girlfriend!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not in a relationship. Isn\u2019t it obvious? I\u2019m still single at 31.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei smiled as he looked at her. \u201cMy sister-in-law asking for your help? That\u2019s probably the most humiliating thing I\u2019ve experienced. I bet she did it on purpose just to let you mock me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut luckily, when we\u2019re both fifty, we\u2019ll still have someone to laugh with. I\u2019m unmarried, you\u2019re unmarried\u2014we\u2019re both single dogs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lan Ruoruo shot him a glare, grabbed her clothes, and turned to leave. She didn\u2019t want to argue anymore, but in her heart, she\u2019d already made up her mind to go out with that blind date from last time.<\/p>\n

Still being single and unattached at 29 made it easy for people to gossip.<\/p>\n

She could date, and marriage could come later\u2014if she wanted it. Honestly, she still thought living alone was quite nice.<\/p>\n

As their quarrel wound down, Serenity spoke a few words to Zhan Wei. \u201cSeventh Brother, don\u2019t always provoke Ruoruo. She only asked you to try on some clothes to see how they looked. It wouldn\u2019t have hurt you to cooperate a little.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou made her so mad she doesn\u2019t even want to talk to you anymore. If you keep this up, how am I supposed to report back to Grandma? You\u2019ll be single for life at this rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow about taking ten days off and going home for some blind dates?\u201d<\/p>\n

Lan Ruoruo was already walking away but still heard their conversation. She called back over her shoulder, \u201cSister Tong, we\u2019re both women\u2014we shouldn\u2019t harm each other. Letting someone like him stay single is the best outcome.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo need to waste any good girl on him. If it were up to me, I\u2019d rather be a lifelong old maid than end up with him.\u201d
\n\u201cIt makes me want to be with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei couldn\u2019t help but respond, which sparked another round of bickering between the two. Eventually, both became so frustrated that they turned away from each other\u2014neither speaking nor making eye contact.<\/p>\n

Serenity, caught in the middle, found herself in a difficult position.<\/p>\n

It had been Lao Qi\u2019s idea for her to invite Lan Ruoruo out shopping, as he wanted a chance to see her. But once they met and started walking together, his behavior left Serenity both amused and exasperated.<\/p>\n

Perhaps, after years of butting heads, the two had simply grown used to this dynamic.<\/p>\n

As Lan Ruoruo once said, whenever the two of them met, if they didn\u2019t argue, she\u2019d feel uneasy\u2014always suspecting Zhan Wei was planning something big to catch her off guard.<\/p>\n

In the end, Lan Ruoruo purchased several sets of the same style as the suit she had liked, complete with a matching tie and belt.<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei watched with envy and frustration but didn\u2019t say a word.<\/p>\n

Instead, he bought himself a few new outfits with his own money.<\/p>\n

Before marriage, the young masters of the Zhan family were accustomed to wearing custom-made suits, designed by tailors specifically assigned by the family. But once the Red Luan Star started to stir, they began to prefer store-bought suits.<\/p>\n

Of course, what they really hoped for was to wear clothing picked out by the woman they loved.<\/p>\n

Not that it mattered where the clothes came from\u2014their sweethearts were all wealthy, and the items they gifted were typically high-end brands. Still, even if a beloved woman bought a cheap outfit from a roadside stall, they\u2019d wear it proudly and show it off.<\/p>\n

By the time they left the store, Beibei had already fallen asleep.<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei had shopping bags in both hands. If they continued browsing, he wouldn\u2019t be able to help the two women carry their purchases.<\/p>\n

Naturally, Lan Ruoruo had already passed him everything she bought\u2014leaving him to do the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n
