{Chapter: 67 Let's go to the amusement park!}
Qiu Wanxi looked absolutely stunning in the long white dress.
Her long, silky black hair cascaded down her back, blending effortlessly with the purity of the dress. Despite the dress being pristine white, her skin remained as pale and flawless as fresh snow, making it seem like she had been carved by the gods themselves.
Her slender neck, paired with a small, narrow waist, was a perfect complement to her graceful and curvaceous figure. The soft, radiant hue of her skin enhanced the dress, making her resemble a delicate fairy that had just stepped out of a painting.
As she stood before Lin Yuan, Qiu Wanxi's cheeks flushed a soft pink, and her eyes—wide and shimmering—could captivate anyone. In that moment, she was nothing less than breathtaking. The only thing that could have completed her perfect form was a little more fullness in certain areas, but perhaps that was a result of her having gone through some hardships.
Lin Yuan's gaze lingered on her for a moment too long, making her blush even harder. Realizing what he was looking at, Qiu Wanxi felt a wave of shyness wash over her, deepening her embarrassment.
"Young Master, how do I look?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.
"You are stunning," Lin Yuan replied, his smile warm as he gently ruffled her hair. His praise came so naturally, as if he were admiring a priceless treasure.
It was true—Qiu Wanxi had a natural beauty that no dress could overshadow. Even though the original outfit she wore was rather plain, it only served to highlight the extraordinary charm she carried effortlessly.
In fact, her beauty was comparable to Yan Ruyue, one of Jiangbei's four great beauties, though Qiu Wanxi was softer, more innocent, and exuded an irresistible charm that made her even more alluring than the cold elegance of Yan Ruyue.
After a bit of shopping, Lin Yuan, not wanting to miss the chance, bought dozens of outfits for Qiu Wanxi. He made sure the clothes were packed carefully for delivery before they prepared to leave the store.
Just as they were about to head out, Qiu Wanxi hesitated for a moment, asking if she could change back into her old patchwork clothes.
Lin Yuan, however, insisted she remain in the elegant white dress.
"You can keep the dress as a souvenir. You can take it off later, but not now," Lin Yuan said, his voice firm yet kind.
Qiu Wanxi felt a bit helpless but obeyed, continuing to wear the dress.
As they exited the store, they once again found themselves face to face with the jealous girls from earlier.
The moment they saw Lin Yuan and Qiu Wanxi together, they couldn't help but notice the striking beauty at his side. A few women who had been whispering behind their backs earlier now found themselves lowering their heads in embarrassment.
"Isn't it just amazing? To see such a handsome man with such a beautiful girl. But, you know, he's probably a womanizer. He changed his female companion in less than an hour."
"Wait, isn't that the same girl from before?" one girl remarked, recognizing Qiu Wanxi.
"Wow! She looks so different now. She used to look so plain. I was about to say the same thing—that he changes women too fast! But, now that she's all dolled up, I think I missed my chance."
"Forget it, we don't have a shot. Let's go," another one muttered, all traces of their earlier confidence disappearing as they scurried off.
The girls walked away in a rush, realizing just how much they had misjudged Qiu Wanxi. Their earlier mockery seemed even more foolish now that she had transformed into a beautiful swan.
Qiu Wanxi couldn't help but smile at their reactions. Her cheeks remained flushed, but there was a twinkle in her eyes. For the first time, she felt a bit more confident, as if she might be somewhat worthy of standing beside Lin Yuan.
"What are you smiling about?" Lin Yuan asked, glancing at her with a knowing grin.
Qiu Wanxi froze, unsure of whether she should speak her mind. She nearly blurted out the words she had been holding in her heart for so long—how she felt about him. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she hesitated, unsure if she was worthy of such feelings.
"It's nothing. I'm just… really happy," she finally said, a little too quickly.
Lin Yuan understood her inner turmoil. He knew what she was thinking—she felt unworthy of him, and that was exactly what he wanted to happen.
But it was time for that to change. He didn't want her to feel insecure anymore. He wanted her to be happy, to feel special and cherished.
"We'll head out now. I'll take you to the amusement park," Lin Yuan said, a soft yet confident tone in his voice.
"The cake shop…?" Qiu Wanxi asked, still concerned.
"Don't worry. Xiao Lian and Xiao He will handle things just fine. We'll have a little fun today," Lin Yuan replied, pulling her into the car.
Soon, the two arrived at the largest amusement park in Jiangbei.
