Was that a sneer?
Lu Yun looked amusedly at the somewhat haughty woman before her and scrutinized her in return. The woman was dressed in a white wool coat adorned with a diamond-studded dragonfly brooch on the collar. Beneath the coat was a red turtleneck sweater, and on her feet were a pair of black sheepskin boots.
The whole ensemble was simple and crisp, with an air of sharpness typical of modern career women.
In her hands, she carried a small bag along with several shopping bags, whereas Duan Muhong had nothing in his hands.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Before Lu Yun could respond, Duan Muhong's face reddened with embarrassment as he looked at the woman, then he apologized to Lu Yun, "Xiaoyun, don't take it to heart. My eldest sister can be a bit harsh with her words, but she doesn't mean any harm. Go ahead and enjoy your shopping; we have to get going."
Without waiting for Lu Yun's reaction, he pulled the woman along and quickly strode forward as if in a rush.
