My sister-in-law has impure intentions (GL) - Chapter 8

At three o’clock in the afternoon, after finishing the meeting, Lin Ruoyan directly took a car to the place she had agreed upon with Xu Jingyi. The evening banquet was important for both of them; she needed to make an appearance at such a formal occasion, and Xu Jingyi needed to let the outside world know about their relationship.

Although the Lin family no longer had Lin Ruofeng, it was still the same Lin family.

When Lin Ruoyan arrived, Xu Jingyi had already finished most of the work and was changing clothes in the changing room.

“Xiao Li, could you please come in and help me with the zipper at the back?”

When she entered, she happened to hear Xu Jingyi’s voice. After thinking for a moment, she waved her hand to stop Xiao Li’s action and quickly stepped into the changing room herself.

Xu Jingyi was facing away from her, so she didn’t know the person who came in was her. The back of the dress was cut quite low, almost exposing the entire back.She looked voluptuous, but in fact, the areas that should be slim were very slim. The exposed back showed shoulder blades that seemed ready to take flight, and below were dimples rarely seen on women.

“Sister-in-law, it’s me.” She said as she walked over there.

Xu Jingyi heard her voice and turned around abruptly. Despite her disheveled appearance, she didn’t seem flustered, just a bit puzzled. “What are you doing here?”

“I came to help you, sister-in-law.” She said as she moved behind Xu Jingyi, one hand pulling up the zipper and the other tugging at the bottom of the dress, “Sister-in-law, you wouldn’t want news of our discord to get out, would you?”

When she said that, Xu Jingyi understood. This place indeed had more than just her styling team; many from their circle of wives would come here. Putting on a show outside wasn’t enough; if someone were determined, this place could also become a monitored spot.

“Then it will be hard on Ruoyan.” She actually didn’t think it was a big deal. She and Lin Ruoyan were both women, and such behavior between women wasn’t a problem. It wasn’t like it was her brother-in-law who needed to be avoided.

“Not hard at all.” Lin Ruoyan zipped up and took a step back, “Alright, sister-in-law.”

Xu Jingyi released her hands from her chest, stretched her waist, and turned around next to Lin Ruoyan, “How do I look?”

She is a mature woman, and her dressing style is equally mature. The dress she chose is a sexy, bright red one. Just now, Lin Ruoyan was standing behind her, and with Xu Jingyi’s hands covering her chest, she couldn’t see the front clearly.

Now that she saw it, she couldn’t help but be taken aback. The color of the dress seemed a bit gaudy at first glance, but on Xu Jingyi, it looked just right—gorgeous yet not vulgar, very suitable for her.

But soon her eyes dimmed a bit; her brother had just passed away not long ago, and she had just lost her husband. It was neither appropriate nor reasonable for her to wear such ‘showy’ clothes. Was she really in such a hurry to find someone new?

“Sister-in-law, isn’t this outfit a bit too much?”Her somewhat subdued voice spoke up, not very straightforwardly, but she believed Xu Jingyi would understand.

Xu Jingyi’s smile froze on her face as she looked down and scanned the area, “Is there a problem? I’ve always dressed like this.”

Today’s banquet is very important, and she needs to dress up. After Lin Ruofeng’s death, so many people have been watching her. She has been low-key lately, so today she must be more extravagant.

She didn’t understand, but Lin Ruoyan received the message. After holding back for a while, she finally spoke up, “My Brother just passed away not long ago, I don’t think sister-in-law should dress so flamboyantly today.”

Her words left Xu Jingyi momentarily stunned. She hadn’t thought about these things; she had been too busy lately, and the preparations for today’s banquet were done according to previous habits, without considering any extra matters.

But she didn’t think there was anything wrong with her outfit. First, she was going to a banquet, not a funeral, so she could wear whatever she wanted. Second, Lin Ruofeng had passed away, but her life would go on. If she kept being affected by this matter, how would she live her life in the future?

In the end, she is nominally her sister-in-law, but in reality, they are just business partners. What right does she have to say such a thing?

“Ruoyan, we’re going to a banquet today, not a funeral.” Her face was still beaming with a smile, but her words were already quite straightforward, “I don’t need any help here. If Ruoyan has nothing to do, she can leave first.”

Lin Ruoyan didn’t expect her seemingly gentle sister-in-law to speak so sharply. Her face turned from blue to white, her expression fluctuating between anger and frustration. She had only intended to remind her, but hearing such a response made her somewhat angry. “Sister-in-law, the Lin family hasn’t split yet, and you haven’t established your own household. There’s no need to be so anxious.”

What’s the rush? In a hurry to find a new partner!

The implied meaning of her words was very clear, and it was immediately apparent. Xu Jingyi’s expression also turned cold.

“Legally speaking, I am single now, so whether I’m in a hurry or not doesn’t require Ruoyan to worry about me.”

The two were not giving in to each other, and the atmosphere had turned icy. Lin Ruoyan snorted coldly and turned to leave the changing room, saying, “I’m just reminding you, sister-in-law, take care of yourself.”

Xu Jingyi said from behind, “Wait a moment.”

Lin Ruoyan stopped pressing down on the doorknob.

“A widow’s door is full of gossip. If Ruoyan still considers me your sister-in-law, please be cautious with your words in the future.”

“I don’t want some rumors to spread from Ruoyan.”
