Instead of repeating the question again, Lu Yunye turned his head to look at him.
In the late afternoon, before sunset, the light outside was still fierce. Lu Yunye’s features were blurred with the sunlight streaming behind him, shadowing the faint corners of his raised lips.
“How about…” Shi Yi paused, “Why don’t you come to Feiyi someday so we can take your measurements and make you a full set of custom-made clothes.”
Lu Yunye thought for a while. It seems this proposal isn’t too bad. “It doesn’t have to be ‘someday’, let’s do it tomorrow.”
“…” Shi Yi was at a loss for words, he didn’t expect him to respond so simply. Although Feiyi is aimed at the mid-to-high-end market, it’s still far away from being a luxury brand. Even Lu Yunye’s casual clothes are more expensive than Feiyi’s high-end set.
To put it bluntly, Lu Yunye might lose face wearing Feiyi’s designs when going out.
But he also can’t retract what he said, so Shi Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet. “Then let’s make an appointment for tomorrow.”
Lu Yunye continued to ask with great interest: “What does a set include?”
Shi Yi: “Undershirt, a jacket and a pair of trousers, and matching scarf and cufflinks.”
Lu Yunye said calmly, “It doesn’t seem like a complete set.”
Men’s haute couture is relatively simple, and it’s almost always three-piece suits. Just as Shi Yi was about to say that they don’t make shoes, he suddenly paused.
Lu Yunye can’t be referring to… underwear?
Lu Yunye’s waist is narrow and thin, but his size is considerable. Ordinary underwear may indeed be tight…
Shi Yi opened his mouth blankly before recovering his voice, “We don’t make underwear.”
Seeing that he understood, Lu Yunye raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, “Didn’t Designer Shi learn tailoring before? Can’t you do it yourself?”
What Lu Yunye said is right, every student majoring in fashion design must learn how to make and modify clothes. When Feiyi was still a small studio, Xiao Yi often went to help his dad, and was able to make clothes himself by the time he was thirteen or fourteen.
But underwear…
Lu Yunye’s tone was too calm, so Shi Yi wasn’t sure whether he actually wanted to order underwear or was deliberately teasing him. He pursed his lips and remained silent.
“The Lu Group has just placed five orders to be sent to different branches.” Lu Yunye calmly flipped through the forms just submitted by the finance department. “I signed them all.”
Shi Yi: “Okay…”
Underhanded.
Perhaps it was because Shi Yi rarely had such a tangled expression, Lu Yunye chuckled lightly.
The sound fell into Shi Yi’s ears. It was soul-stirring and extremely magnetic, catching him off guard. Then, he heard Lu Yunye ask, “Are you free next weekend?”
Shi Yi: “What?”
“I have a few friends who want to see you,” Lu Yunye said.
Shi Yi: “Okay.”
Seeing it was already late afternoon, Shi Yi directly handled the rest of his work in Lu Yunye’s office.
Looking at the omega who was typing on the keyboard opposite him, Lu Yunye clicked into the small family group chat and sent a message.
[Lu Yunye: Go to Feiyi to measure clothes tomorrow]
[Father: Not bad]
[Elder Sister: Brother is gloating, you haven’t sunk yet?]
[Elder Sister: Why is there no omega asking me to measure the clothes [thinking]]
[Elder Sister: Why is it a little sour]
Lu Yunye raised his chin calmly. Just as he was about to close the dialog box, he saw a new message from Xiao Ting.
[Mother: Hey, didn’t Xiao Yi say that he would also make some clothes for us? Let’s go together?]
[Elder Sister: That’s right! Let’s go together @Lu Yunye]
[Mother: There’s also a few of my girlfriends, let me ask them if they have time tomorrow!]
[Mother: Son, please tell Xiao Yi @Lu Yunye]
[Lu Yunye: …]
[Father: Add Xiao Yi into the group too]
[Mother: Yes, yes, I have Xiao Yi’s WeChat account]
Lu Yunye: …
He raised his head and said to the person opposite, “My parents said they would pull you into the family group.”
“Ah? Okay,” Shi Yi paused, “no problem.”
Speaking of which, he has never joined any family group. Shi Jinpeng will call him directly, and his half-brothers hardly contact him. Those Shi family members are useless to him.
He has only one relative, Shu Wen.
[Yi: Hello, mom and dad. Hello, sister]
[Tingting Yuli1Xiao Ting – aka LYY’s mom’s username. You can set nicknames which should’ve been what the earlier chat was: Welcome Xiao Yi to the group! [Scattering Flowers][Scattering Flowers][Scattering Flowers]]
[Kaixue Shiqing: Welcome brother!]
[Lu Feng: [Transfer 50000]]
[Lu Feng: Sent a small red envelope]
[Yi: No need, no need, thank you dad]
[Tingting Yuli: Ah, this kid, accept it]
[Kaixue Shiqing: Just take it!]
[Lu Yunye: [50000 received]]
[Lu Feng: ?]
[Tingting Yuli: ? ?]
[Kaixue Shiqing: ? ? ?]
Shi Yi raised his head. Lu Yunye was blocked by the computer, so only the top of his head was exposed.
[Lu Yunye: [Transfer 66666]]
[Kaixue Shiqing: You won this time, Lao Liu2teasing LYY for being the 6th child]
[Lu Yunye: Take it]
He was embarrassed to accept the red envelope sent by Lu Feng, but it was justifiable that it was sent by Lu Yunye.
Shi Yi couldn’t help smiling, and accepted the red envelope.
[Tingting Yuli: Let’s get down to business, Yunye said that tomorrow he will go to Feiyi to measure clothes. Do you have time to measure a few sets for us too?]
Shi Yi remembered that he had promised to make Xiao Ting some clothes at the family banquet before, but he forgot after a long time.
[Yi: Yes, that works]
[Tingting Yuli: Alright, let me ask a few girlfriends. I’ll tell you after confirming the number of people]
[Tingting Yuli: Just collect their money [cover mouth and laugh]]
[Yi: Ok]
Although Lu Yunye was a little cold, the Lu family was easy to get along with. The chat in the group continued until there were 99+ unreads, and Lu Yunye never appeared again.
When the two returned home after work, Shi Yi made an appointment with his personal doctor to check his glands again.
When it was almost bedtime, Shi Yi changed into pajamas in the guest room and came to Lu Yunye’s bedroom. Although they share a bed, he is still not used to showing his body in front of Lu Yunye, and chose to go back to his room to change clothes and take a shower.
Lu Yunye walked out of the bathroom while wiping his hair. His upper arm muscles were raised high, strong and smooth.
He stood still beside the bed, looking down at Shi Yi who was pretending to be calm and swiping his phone, “Do you want to take the measurements now?”
Shi Yi: …Huh?
