Chapter 547: I Want to Maintain a Good Figure

Such a straightforward compliment, without any embellishment, caused a blush to spread across Shu Pan’s fair face. Just as she was about to say thank you, Gu Shaoting whispered again in her ear, “I really don’t want others to see you like this. If only I could keep you in my pocket.”

His expression was serious, showing no signs of joking.

Shu Pan felt like her face could almost drip blood.

She looked at him with a hint of annoyance. Judy was still there, wasn’t she? Wasn’t he afraid of being laughed at for saying such things?

Unable to resist teasing him, she said, “If that’s the case, maybe I should change into something else.”

“No, I want this outfit,” Gu Shaoting firmly refused, then turned to Judy. “Pack it up, and put it on my account. I’ll take it with me later.”

“There might be some adjustments needed. If you’re attending the banquet the day after tomorrow, have someone come to pick it up at noon,” Judy, a perfectionist, treated her designs like her children—everything had to be flawless.

“Okay, thank you,” Gu Shaoting rarely expressed gratitude to clients.

“As long as you’re satisfied,” Judy said happily.

After seeing them off, Judy got to work on perfecting the outfit.

Gu Shaoting and Shu Pan stepped out of the studio and checked the time—it was almost dinner time. Gu Shaoting decided to take Shu Pan for a meal to fill their stomachs.

Gu Shaoting was worried that Shu Pan might be hungry, so he ordered a table full of dishes. However, Shu Pan didn’t seem to appreciate it much; she barely touched anything, just sipping water occasionally.

At the dining table, Gu Shaoting was elegantly eating his meal when he noticed Shu Pan hadn’t touched her food. His expression darkened, and he asked displeasedly, “Are you full from drinking water? Why aren’t you eating?”

Shu Pan looked at the table full of delicious food and then looked at the water in her hand. Shu Pan glanced at the table filled with delicious food, then looked down at her glass of water. Involuntarily, she swallowed and stubbornly said, “I’m not hungry.”

As soon as she spoke, her stomach let out a loud growl.

Gu Shaoting looked at her intently, waiting to see if she had anything else to explain.

Shu Pan felt extremely embarrassed; her stomach was being so disobedient.

“Hmm?” Gu Shaoting raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing her words. The body’s reaction was the most honest.

Knowing she couldn’t hide it anymore, Shu Pan pouted and honestly admitted, “I just don’t want to eat too much. The dress is very fitted, and if I eat too much these days, I might not fit into it or end up with a big belly, which would be embarrassing.”

Hearing this, Gu Shaoting couldn’t help but chuckle. “I don’t mind, and I don’t think it’s embarrassing.”

Why care about other people’s opinions?

Seeing how earnest he was, Shu Pan couldn’t help but smile. “But what if I become really fat? Would you still not mind?”

Gu Shaoting was taken aback, genuinely considering the question. It was hard to imagine Shu Pan becoming overweight. She was always so careful with her meals, counting every grain of rice and occasionally making a fuss if she ate a bit more.

“Do you need so much time to think about it? Are you really going to mind?” Shu Pan couldn’t help but feel disappointed. It seemed like all men were the same—they would mind if their woman became fat and ugly.

“I won’t mind. Eat as much as you want, just don’t ruin your health by trying to control it,” Gu Shaoting quickly replied, inwardly sighing at how women cared so much about their figures. Even Joy, occasionally eating a bit more, would worry about getting fat, which left him feeling amused and exasperated.

Ah, women were really a handful.

Ignoring Shu Pan’s objections, Gu Shaoting served her a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup, then watched her closely, insisting that she eat.
