Lu Shao is cunning; Miss Nan has fallen for his tricks again.

Chapter 40 This store only has Miss Nan's size.
Nan Xu got up early to wash up, put on a black skirt and a white shirt, and wore a brown suit jacket over it.

She needed to tell Sang Tingwan the news, and she also needed to go to Zhou Zan's studio today to finish what she hadn't finished saying yesterday.

After breakfast, Lu Zhiyan went to work.

Nan Xu started the car and went to the residential area where Sang Tingwan lived.

Nan Xu knocked on the door, and Sang Tingwan, with dark circles under her eyes, opened it.

"Sister Nan? What brings you here?" Sang Tingwan asked in surprise, turning aside to let Nan Xu in.

Nan Xu skillfully took out slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them on. "Today, the director of 'The Sound of the Other Side' called me. The new drama will start filming in three days, but we need to prepare for the opening ceremony on the third day a day in advance."

"You could have just called me. There's no need for you to make the trip."

Nan Xu waved her hand. "It's nothing. I just happened to be passing by when I told you."

Nan Xu frowned as she noticed Sang Tingwan's dark circles and redness. "What happened to your eyes?"

Sang Tingwan sighed, unsure where to begin.

Last night, after she hung up on Sang Qingyun and was about to go to sleep, Yuan Anqi called her again.

Sang Tingwan frowned and hung up the phone, but Sang Qingyun and Yuan Anqi kept calling her.

She thought that after Chen Xiaoyan exposed their scandalous affair, they had completely broken off all ties. She never imagined they were still entangled.

Unwilling to be disturbed, she blocked all of their contact methods.

But the two of them kept switching phones to talk, which kept Sang Tingwan up all night.

Sang Qingyun knew she had signed with Xinghe Media and threatened to expose her illegitimate daughter's identity if she didn't help him.

Sang Tingwan tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.

Seeing that Sang Tingwan had some concerns, Nan Xu didn't delve into it further.

She was merely Sang Tingwan's boss and agent; she had no interest in Sang Tingwan's private life.

"There's another bad thing," Nan Xu said hesitantly.

Although it wasn't a big deal that she offended Zhang San, she still wanted to give Sang Tingwan a heads-up beforehand.

So that Sang Tingwan wouldn't be caught off guard if Zhang San made things difficult for them later.

Seeing Nan Xu's hesitant expression, Sang Tingwan's heart jumped into her throat. "What's wrong, Sister Nan?"

Nan Xu gritted her teeth and said, "When the director called me today, I hung up on him twice. My boyfriend answered the third time."

“I’m afraid he might make things difficult for us later, so I’m telling you in advance so you can be mentally prepared when he makes things difficult for you.”

Sang Tingwan's lips twitched. "Director Zhang isn't that kind of person, is he?"

On the day of the interview, she felt that Zhang San was a very amiable director. He might lose his temper occasionally, but he wouldn't be so mean as to make things difficult for her.

Besides, Zhang San isn't some big-name director. Does he think he can just play hard to get?
"How would I know? Just take it as a precaution."

Sang Tingwan nodded. "Okay, I understand, Sister Nan."

"Okay, that's good to know. Alright, I have some things to take care of, so I'll be going now." Nan Xu stood up and said goodbye to Sang Tingwan.

“Okay.” Sang Tingwan also got up from the sofa, preparing to see Nan Xu out.

Nan Xu waved her hand. "No need, I'll go out myself."

Nan Xu drove her own car and arrived at Zhou Zan's wedding dress studio half an hour later.

The studio is decorated in a French style, exuding understated luxury and romance.

As soon as I pushed open the studio door, Xiao Chen, the receptionist, came up to me and said, "Ms. Nan, our boss is waiting for you in the meeting room on the third floor."

Nan Xu nodded and went up to the third floor via the dreamy spiral staircase.

Nan Xu found the reception room, knocked on the frosted glass door, and then pushed it open to go inside.

Zhou Zan was hunched over the table drawing design sketches.

Seeing that the visitor was Nan Xu, she lowered her head again and continued drawing. "Go to the tea room next door and pour yourself whatever you want to drink."

Nan Xu clicked her tongue, turned around and opened the door, only to be stopped by Zhou Zan, who called out, "Give me a cup of coffee."

Helpless, Nan Xu opened the door and went out.

In the tea room, Nanxu searched through the drawer for a while before finding the coffee powder, and then brewed herself a cup of herbal tea.

Nan Xu gently kicked open the door to the reception room and placed the coffee beside Zhou Zan. She then sat down to drink her herbal tea.

"What we didn't finish talking about yesterday, we can talk about now," Nan Xu said softly, sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed.

Zhou Zan took off his glasses, picked up the coffee on the table, and sat down next to Nan Xu.

"Actually, it's nothing much, it's just that my dad is acting too strangely," Zhou Zan said with a sigh.

"He can't be nice to me just because I argued with him once. This...this doesn't make any sense at all, right?" Nan Xu didn't understand either.

"I don't understand either," Nan Xu said helplessly.

"By the way, are you busy today? If not, let's go shopping together," Nan Xu asked Zhou Zan.

She will be setting off for Yaocheng the day after tomorrow. Yaocheng is in the south, and although it is already autumn, it is still very humid and hot.

She didn't know how long the filming would last, so she should at least prepare some daily necessities, skincare products, and clothes.

Zhou Zan got up, picked up the folder on the table, and flipped through two or three pages.

The design drawings for the next week are almost finished.

"I'm not in a hurry. I'll just buy a few clothes too." Zhou Zan couldn't even remember the last time she went shopping.

The two went downstairs together, and Zhou Zan got into Nan Xu's car to go to the department store.

Nan Xu and Zhou Zan first went to their usual cosmetics store. They bought several bottles of sunscreen and two moisturizing sets.

Upon arriving at the clothing section, Zhou Zan's eyes were drawn to a French-style floral dress for a tea break in the T store window.

Zhou Zan pointed to the dress and said, "A-Xu, let's go to that store and take a look."

Nan Xu followed Zhou Zan's finger and saw that the dress was indeed very nice.

Nan Xu then nodded.

As soon as she arrived at the store, Zhou Zan couldn't wait to ask the sales assistant to take the dress off the mannequin so she could try it on.

The sales assistant handed the clothes to Zhou Zan, who went to the fitting room to try them on, while Nan Xu sat in the rest area playing on her phone.

The sales assistant skillfully presented the snacks to Nan Xu. "Miss Nan, these are snacks and desserts. Would you like coffee or champagne?"

"Champagne." Nan Xu didn't even look up.

She was used to this kind of service when she was abroad.

However, she had just returned to China and didn't seem to have shopped at this store yet.

The sales assistant placed two glasses of champagne on a tray in front of Nanxu.

"I don't think I've ever spent any money here yet?" Nan Xu asked, voicing the question that had been on her mind.

The sales assistant stood aside and explained, "We haven't been here before, but our mall belongs to the Lu family."

"The president gave us advance notice."

Nan Xu nodded; Lu Zhiyan's thinking was indeed thorough.

At this moment, Zhou Zan came out wearing a dress and looked in the mirror. "A-Xu, come and see, do you think it looks good?" She even twirled around twice as she spoke.

The skirt was cinched at the waist and reached to the calves. It perfectly accentuated Zhou Zan's figure.

Nan Xu put down her phone and stood up.

"It's really good."

Zhou Zan admired herself in the mirror one last time. She finally decided to buy it.

Nan Xu was about to leave with her newly purchased items when she was stopped by the sales assistant, "Miss Nan."

Nan Xu turned around. "What's wrong?"

"Oh, is that so? Would you like to take a look at the new autumn clothes that just arrived today?"

Nan Xu hesitated for a moment, then decided to take a look.

This trip to Yaocheng will likely involve staying with the film crew. Opportunities for shopping will be extremely limited.

"Then, shall we take a look?" Nan Xu said, looking at Zhou Zan.

Zhou Zan nodded.

The sales assistant led them to the second floor, which was more like a VIP lounge.

The sales assistant pulled back the curtain, and the latest autumn clothes caught the eyes of Nan Xu and Zhou Zan.

New dresses, pants, suits, coats—you name it, they have it.

A hint of amazement flashed in Zhou Zan's eyes, and she couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you let me see it earlier?"

The sales assistant chuckled, "I'm sorry, miss. The runway show just ended recently. The headquarters' inventory is also very tight. Currently, we only have Miss Nan's size available in this store."

Zhou Zan looked at Nan Xu with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

This shop only has Miss Nan's size.

The man surnamed Lu should spoil Nan Xu as much as he can.
