The coat was slightly long, reaching down to about one-third of Shen Wan's thighs. Its edges had two neatly sewn lines, which conveniently intercepted and stabilized the billowing dress.

"Why are you asking like this?"

Shen Wan paused her steps, turned, and gazed steadily at him. Her eyes seemed perpetually void of too much emotion, calm and indifferent.

Zhou Chi felt somewhat awkward but managed to conjure a reassuring smile tinged with embarrassment. "If you don't like it, you don't have to answer."
