Chapter 628: Seeing My Brother is Like Seeing a Rival in Love!
Bao Gucheng felt that there was nothing in the world he couldn’t learn just by taking a look.From childhood to adulthood, he had an exceptional ability to learn on his own. Back in school, he was always a top student and a genius.
Later, he joined a special unit and, with his extraordinary talent and comprehension, he earned merits and promotions, becoming the Empire’s youngest General.
However, at this very moment.
He was staring at a simple pair of hooks that joined a piece of fabric, and somehow, sweat was dripping down his forehead.
He could assemble the most complex gun in one second with his eyes closed.
Yet, facing a girl’s bra, he had fumbled for a whole minute without any progress!
This was utterly embarrassing!
Unbelievable.
He couldn’t forgive himself!
He really wanted to open his eyes and see what exactly the hook’s structure was, how could it not clasp even after trying so hard? No matter how complex it was, could it be more complicated than a combination lock?
But he had promised Xi Zuzi to keep his eyes closed, a man’s word is his bond; how could he sneak a peek?
Moreover, Xi Zuzi was undressed, and if he opened his eyes... he couldn’t guarantee what might happen next.
"Xiao Chenger, is it done?"
"Just... a moment."
Bao Gucheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He held his breath and focused intensely in his mind, studying the structure of the hooks under his fingers... finally, by the third minute, he had helped Xi Zuzi fix her bra.
"Xiao Chenger, you’re amazing," Xi Zuzi marveled.
Bao Gucheng: "..." It was the first time being praised by the little lady, and he felt quite guilty!
Xi Zuzi started putting on her school uniform again.
Bao Gucheng took a deep breath and exited the changing room like a gentleman.
Looking up, he saw several familiar faces in the store—
Wu Qianman was surprised, "Mr. Bo! What a coincidence..."
Xi Langyue frowned, "Why is it you? What are you doing here?"
Gu Jingyan’s tone was slightly mocking, "This place sells women’s clothing, who would have thought Mr. Bo had such a hobby?"
Bao Gucheng: "..."
Even though his heart was racing at the moment, he struggled to maintain a calm expression, glanced at the few of them, and said, "Miss Zuzi is trying on clothes, keep it down!"
Only then did Xi Langyue notice that Bao Gucheng had come out of the fitting room, and since this flagship store of Suyu was customized for women’s clothing, then the one inside... would be Xi Zuzi?
What was Bao Gucheng doing in Xi Zuzi’s fitting room?
He immediately became vigilant, "A girl is trying on clothes, why is a grown man getting involved? Bao Gucheng, you’ve lived long enough to have some decency, haven’t you?"
Bao Gucheng said calmly, "Helping her fasten the clasp. If not me, should you go?"
One sentence left the straightforward Xi Langyue speechless.
Damn, even though he is her brother, it indeed wasn’t suitable for him to enter his sister’s fitting room.
Instead, Gu Jingyan rolled his eyes and haughtily said, "Wu Qianman can go help."
Bao Gucheng glanced at him indifferently, "No need, I’ve already helped her fasten it."
What kind of clasp needed someone else’s help to fasten it?
It must be on the back, of course!
For a moment, the two men opposite had veins subtly throbbing on their foreheads, and their eyes on Bao Gucheng were filled with a bit of a desire to fight.
Seeing this made Wu Qianman quite apprehensive; after all, these men will be brothers-in-law or prospective brothers-in-law in the future, so why do they always seem like rivals whenever they meet?
She had no brothers, no boyfriend, and couldn’t quite understand the situation.
Just when the atmosphere was tense.
The door of the fitting room suddenly creaked open.
Xi Zuzi stepped out with a cheerful smile, "Wow, it’s so lively here, Xiao Yueyue, Xiao Yan, Xiao Man, you’re all here?"
Everyone: "..."
No matter how angry they were, Xi Zuzi’s string of "Xiao Xiao Xiao" words extinguished their anger!
