Seven years after my death, the male protagonist of the substitute novel was criticized

Chapter 22 You sir?
Pei Yizhou had just come out of the fitting room and was standing in front of the mirror buttoning his clothes. He saw Lin Lu coming over in the mirror and turned around to show her.

"How is it? Is it ok? The size you chose is just right. It fits me well."

"It looks good," Lin Lu praised sincerely. His admiring eyes were first attracted by the dark blue vest that bound his waist, and then moved all the way to his collar. "Do you want to try the tie on?"

Pei Yizhou was buttoning his cufflinks with one hand. He bent down and gestured to her, "You can try it. Help me button it up."

His collar was slightly open, and his bent posture exposed his collarbone and a small piece of skin under the shirt to Lin Lu's eyes. His prominent Adam's apple slid up and down in his sight.

If he is an hourglass with two ends, the quicksand belonging to the "brother" end is now flowing rapidly to the "man" end.

Lin Lu felt that he was being too offensive, so he could only move his gaze up a few centimeters, pretending that his 5.2 eyesight was squinting and half-blind, and put the tie around his neck like a rope.

Pei Yizhou laughed grimly: "Are you going to make planned reductions in the family? You almost shaved the back of my head off."

She pursed her lips and whispered awkwardly, "I don't know how to tie a tie."

She was only eighteen years old, and she still remembered a little bit about how to tie a red scarf, but she had never touched a men's tie, let alone helped to tie one.

This kind of thing has only been seen in TV dramas where the heroines do it to the heroes.

"It's okay." Pei Yizhou fastened his cuffs, held her hand loosely, and asked, "Shall I teach you?"

No, that’s the drama for the male and female protagonists.

Lin Lu chose to ask the shopping guide for help.

The shopping guide was very good at observing people's expressions. He had been standing next to her without offering any help just now, but now that she asked for help, he immediately stepped forward to give instructions and even tried to teach her several different ways to tie a tie.

The other party demonstrated on a mannequin, and Lin Lu followed suit and practiced on Pei Yizhou until he tied his first beautiful four-hand knot.

Pei Yizhou cooperated by bending over the whole time, his lowered eyes filled with a gentle smile. When the tie was tied, he clapped seriously and praised her for tying it very well.

Just like when I was in high school and praised her for her clear and beautiful handwriting.

Lin Lu smiled and patted his tie proudly: "It's okay, the model is just obedient. Well, this outfit is good, look in the mirror again."

Pei Yizhou turned around and faced the dressing mirror. His eyes seemed fixed on his suit, but in fact his peripheral vision was always on the person diagonally behind him in the mirror.

He hoped that this moment would pass slower and slower.

After trying on one set of clothes, there were still a few sets waiting. Lin Lu became addicted to choosing and wanted to see him try on all the good-looking clothes.

Pei Yizhou also cooperated without any impatience, even though this time buying clothes for him had turned into Lin Lu buying clothes.

While trying on a casual suit with a scarf, she patiently tried to arrange the scarf into perfect pleats. She studied the collar of Pei Yizhou's shirt for a long time, and her eyes almost became cross-eyed.

Finally it was done, she breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had completed a math problem, and she did not allow Pei Yizhou to touch it without permission.

The salesperson smiled and said, "There's actually more than one way to use a scarf. If you can't arrange it the way you want before going out, you can just fold the tie and put it in the pocket of your husband's suit jacket. It will be very fashionable if it sticks out a little bit."

gentlemen?

Lin Lu's eyelids jumped, and she subconsciously glanced at Pei Yizhou's expression, and found that he was still lowering his head to adjust his collar as if he didn't hear her, so she was silent for two seconds, nodded in agreement as if nothing had happened, and then tried to be calm and said: "It is indeed fashionable. But this is my brother." Shopping guide: "Huh?"

The other party did not question much, but immediately apologized and admitted his mistake, and gave a branded scarf as an apology.

It seems that they are very good at handling incidents of mistaken identity of a couple. Lin Lu doesn't dare to wonder if they are thinking some terrible thoughts like "I know, I know, some couples who can't be in public like to use brother and sister as nicknames."

After buying the clothes, Lin Lu spent all the salary he had worked hard for a month.

The few coins left in my wallet from buying snacks were also used to buy a tomato as proof that my sister was officially earning money to supplement the family income.

The salary passed through her fingers for just a second.

But she was only heartbroken for a moment. On the way back, she was in a very good mood, lowering the car window and humming a song in the wind.

When they stopped at a red light, the sound of her humming became more obvious. Pei Yizhou tilted his head to look at her long hair blown by the wind, and touched the ends of her hair inadvertently. Seeing that she seemed to have noticed and turned her head, he smiled gently and asked, "You've run out of money, are you still happy?"

"I'm happy. When I was making money, I was thinking about buying you a gift. Now that I've earned enough, I actually bought it for you. I got what I wanted, so of course I'm happy." She leaned against the car window again and winked at him as she spoke.

Pei Yizhou's heart was about to melt into a puddle of water. The annoying horns, conversations, and curses outside the car window were all blown away by the wind. He reached out his hand again, and Lin Lu cooperated with him and moved closer to the driver's seat, letting him gently stroke his hair.

That familiar feeling of security returned to his body again. It was as if the whole world was running frantically to avoid the rain, but only Lin Lu was holding a black umbrella in his hand. In order to hide under the umbrella, he could push aside other people and run forward.

Peel off her smiles, anger, elation and depression, and what lies beneath is always calmness and tenacity, just as when she stood a few meters away and said calmly, "We can depend on each other in the future."

They really depend on each other for life. She can give her all for the one she loves. Once they have tasted the sweetness of her efforts, no one can bear to go back to the time when they are not related. Rather than saying that he made money everywhere to take in and support Lin Lu, it is better to say that Lin Lu took in him who had been wandering between his parents, society, abandonment and being abandoned.

Pei Yizhou wished he could stay at this moment forever.

But when the green light came on, this frozen second was shattered by the honking of the car horn behind.

Lin Lu moved away a little, and their body temperatures were separated.

She didn't notice Pei Yizhou's eyes suddenly turned deep and gloomy. She reached out to poke the tomato with special significance, wondering what dish it could be made into.

When they were almost home, Pei Yizhou suddenly asked her, "Do you want a car?"

Lin Lu immediately perked up: "Really? Can I really afford a car without working for 30 years? And then drive my dear and respectable brother around the city?"

It was like a magic potion. Pei Yizhou's bad mood was blown away by the wind, and his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.

"If your car is used to pick up your brother, the garage downstairs can be filled for you. In addition to the car, do you want a flat or a small villa? You get off work early, so you can make an appointment with Sister Chen and others to help you look at houses later and find a property that you like in a good location."

Lin Lu screamed: "My dear brother! I knew you would not forget your sister when you became rich!"

"A good brother is one who buys a house and a car? The card I gave you can buy three cars, but you haven't used it yet."

"That's different."

"Why are they different?" The car stopped in the underground garage. Pei Yizhou turned his head and looked at her under the light from the car interior. "What's mine is yours. Whether it's property or inheritance, you are the only heir."
