"Alright, stop it!" Fang De finally spoke. Then, with Jiao Yuebai's help, he sat down on the sofa. When his gaze landed on Lu Youyou's light red dress, his smile deepened. "This is the new material that your Cerulean Textiles Company created?"
As soon as his words left his lips, all three brothers of the Fang family focused on Lu Youyou's long dress. The texture of the long dress should be between silk and chiffon, but it was more breathable than silk and softer than chiffon. They noticed that there weren't any creases on the dress even when she sat down and got up several times. The dress remained smooth as glass.
Under the light, dark patterns that were hand-embroidered appeared on the cloth and as the light refracted from different angles, different sceneries appeared. Using extremely light silk to weave such dress material and to be able to embroider such a special dark pattern was a unique patent that the Cerulean Textiles Company held. It was said that the entire cloth was handmade from lotus silk. If one used too much strength while weaving or in the embroidery process, the entire material would be ruined. Therefore, the creation process was cumbersome, and the material was relatively expensive. It would be even more expensive to make a finished garment.
Fang De was indeed a crafty businessman. It was his first time meeting his new daughter-in-law, and he had talked about business directly.
Lu Youyou smiled. "It's indeed a new material, just taken from the factory in fact. My mother asked the master tailors in the factory to make it for me according to my measurements."
Fang De quickly asked. "I heard that your family applied to patent the process of making fabric from lotus silk. The process is complicated. Does the lotus species matter?
Lu Youyou's smile deepened. "I don't know about that. I'm not interested in the family business. Uncle, you should talk to my father for the details."
Fang De nodded slowly.
Fang Shenggang and Fang Xuyan were extremely surprised. "You're the only daughter of the Lu family. It's natural that you would inherit the family business in the future. What would happen since you're not interested in it?"
Lu Youyou shrugged indifferently. "We'll talk about it later, but I'm not interested in the family business for now. I just want to sleep whenever I see matters concerning my father's business."
Fang De asked. "Did you study business in university?"
An unnatural look flashed across Lu Youyou's face. "I… went to medical university."
Fang Jianan became excited again. "A female doctor. What a sacred profession! My heart has been hurting for the past two days. Why don't Miss Lu take a look at me?"
Lu Youyou coughed awkwardly. "I'm sorry. I'm afraid I won't be of much help with Third Brother's problem. Because… I studied forensics at the Medical University. I can't treat living people."
Everyone fell silent yet again.
Jiao Yuebai stared at Lu Youyou in disbelief. "You're a girl and you studied forensics?"
Lu Youyou nodded. She thought to herself that her major had been discriminated against, yet again. In order to salvage her image, she couldn't help but to rebut. "Actually, I'm not studying forensics alone. I also have another major. When I graduate, I'll have a double degree."
Fang Shenggang originally had intentions of snatching her from Fourth Brother to be his wife, but he was a little afraid now. A forensic doctor! What if she picked up a scalpel in the middle of the night, casually took a few swings in the middle of the night and said that she wanted to know more about human anatomy… This scene was terrifying just thinking about it. Now that he heard that she studied another major, he felt happy and quickly asked. "What major?"
Lu Youyou looked sincere as she replied. "Criminal psychology!"
Everyone fell silent yet again.
Lu Youyou immediately blushed. Faced with the strange and conflicted expression on everyone's face, she chose to shut up this time. Before she came, she had promised her mother to talk less. Now, it seemed that the more she said, the more mistakes she had made.
"Ha-ha."
Just as everyone felt awkward, the man who had been sitting silently in the wheelchair chuckled out of the blue.
Fang Yichu was absolutely dashing when he smiled. Even Jiao Yuebai and Chen Fengxia were enthralled by his smile…
But when they thought about how it had been twenty plus years since they heard Fang Yichu make a sound and coupled with Lu Youyou's words on how she is studying forensic and criminal psychology, the atmosphere became eerie.
Chen Fengxia held Fang Xuyan's arm uncomfortably while Jiao Yuebai looked away. Even the young masters' gazes darkened as they stared straight at Fang Yichu.
"Fourth Brother, are you also frightened by your wife's major?" Fang Shenggang decided to give up on courting Lu Youyou and called her as his sister-in-law. When he thought about the possibility of bringing her out as his wife in the future to socialize and when others asked what his wife does, his reply would be that she's in forensics and that she does autopsies… How unlucky would that be even though she's a beauty!
Although Lu Youyou was young, she was extremely sensitive. She whispered into Fang Yichu's ear. "Had I embarrassed you?"
