Chapter 404 - Jang Shin and Tang Xinyang: Long Legs (II)
Tang Xinyang felt that this strange remark was full of doubts about her 'feminine' existence.
Jang Shin had been making this strange remark many times recently.
And she somehow didn't like it. She had already made all kinds of efforts to become a proper 'woman' for him.?In these past two years, she made sure to show her 'feminine' side to him and created various situations to be with him and presented those 'qualities'.
Tang Xinyang fell into contemplation. So 'those' things she did in the past two years had no effect on him?
'It can't be...'
She glanced at the man who had his eyes away from her.
Despite her tremendous efforts, Jang Shin could not still see her as a 'woman'...
It was alright if other people don't see her as a woman but coming from him...
It was an entirely different matter.
Tang Xinyang suddenly felt down. How many times she had been rejected and felt hopeless about it?
"If you have trouble with your clothes, you should have told Butler Gong to call your attendants in. Why call me?" Jang Shin patted his burning face and calmed his breathing. "Where is Butler Gong?"
Tang Xinyang answered in a dispirited tone, "He left. He said he had an emergency."
Of course, that was a complete lie and they both knew it.
Jang Shin bit his lips. Butler Gong must be probably tied and hidden somewhere.
"And your attendants? The make-up artist? The maids?"
"They went out. They said they will be back soon. But that's an hour ago."
The maids likely were threatened to not come to this room.
Jang Shin sighed. What kind of trick was this woman was playing? From one-sidedly beating him up long ago, she suddenly changed to this form of tormenting him.
And this kind of torment...was simply torture to a healthy young man like him.
He learned from experience that in this situation, he should just go with the flow and do what she wanted.
'Fine. I am his butler anyway.'
He felt that it was alright to turn around now. So he did.
"Then what do you want me to do? Why call me..."
Jang Shin's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Tang Xinyang's face was just a few centimeters away from him. Her hazel eyes looked at his eyes directly. Her gaze was hot and direct, scrutinizing him and scorching him. Her warm breath fell on his face.
Her tempting pouty lips were slightly open. And they looked soft and moist like red jelly...
"I want you..."
His breathing hitched.
'Want me?!'
Thump. Thump. Thump.
"To pick a dress for me."
'...Pick a dress...'
'Pick a dress?'
"Huh?"
Tang Xinyang held his eyes for a moment, then stood up straight, patted her chest like she was cheering for herself, and pointed at the rows of dresses on the bed. "I don't know what to choose since it is an immediate decision. You know me, I don't have an eye for fashion."
"...."
Tang Xinyang glanced at the stiff man. "Shin?"
The tall man closed his eyes, took a deep breath, exhaled, and opened his eyes again.
"You tied Butler Gong somewhere, threw the maids off, and called me here just to...pick you a dress?" Jang Shin gritted his teeth.
The dense man did not know why he felt down and disappointed.
What was he expecting anyways?
Damn! He was really getting dirty-minded with the passing of time.
"Ah, I didn't do that to them!" Tang Xinyang's eyes turned wide. How did Jang Shin knew that she did all of those? She averted his eyes to come up with excuses.
"S-since there was no one around me, of course I will call you for help! Because you are my butler!"
What kind of answer was that, that was not a satisfying answer at all. Jang Shin sighed helplessly. He did not really know why he found the answer so distressing.
"So it just happened that because I am one of your butlers, you called for my help?"
Tang Xinyang blinked. She directly answered. "No. That's not the main reason. I called you because I want you to pick a dress that you want me to wear. You know I hate dresses. But if it's the one you picked, I can patiently wear it until the end of the banquet."
"..."
Jang Shin felt his ears and his chest grow warmer. He looked at her serious eyes that was not telling any lies. His own eyes unconsciously softened.
He scratched his head. Strange, how come with Tang Xinyang saying this, it made him happy?
He quirked his lips. The depressing mood was instantly gone. "Fine. I will help you pick one. But you need to prepare quickly."
The woman grinned. "Alright."
Tang Xinyang was feeling upbeat. Even Jang Shin knew that she just made up this situation, he let her do what she wants.
'Was it the same as the husband spoiling his wife? Kyaahhh. '
Well, since the man she loved was so thick-headed that no matter what moves she did, either confessing to him directly or giving hints in these past two years, nothing would work. Then she should take her time and strengthened her resolve!
After all, she was her family's butler. And Jang Shin had been tied to her since young. He could not go anywhere and leave her.
'Yup. I would not give up! He is already mine and all I need to do is to make him realize it!'
"...." Jang Shin glanced at her shining eyes. Was really choosing a dress for her already make her happy? So easy.
But his heart was not less happy than her. He did not even realize that he was currently smiling while approaching the bed.
Jang Shin went to the bed and looked at the dresses. After inspecting for a while, he frowned. Why were these dresses so revealing? If it was not backless, it was off-shoulder and exposed half of her chest. Then this one here had a long slit to the upper thigh.
'Hmm. These dresses are no good...'
Eh? Hold on…
His mind suddenly imagined these dresses worn by Tang Xinyang. She had a seductive body and her light honeyed-milk skin would looked good in all these colors. With her hair braided in updo style and just a pair of earrings, she would look like a temptress who could seduce any man.
…On the second thought, these clothes would actually look good on her.
'Let's try this one.' He kind of wanted to see her wearing this.
Jang Shin picked the dress with a long slit. He already imagined Tang Xinyang wearing the dress.
"This one I think is the best that will look good on you. Actually, all of them should fit you. But you have long legs, so you'd look wonderful on this." And I really like your long legs, he silently added.
Tang Xinyang took it. She nodded happily. "Alright." She went inside the dressing room.
He waited for her to change.
After a while, she came out.
Jang Shin's eyes were immediately glued on her.
Beautiful face, swan neck, full chest, tiny waist, curvy h.i.p.s, and s.e.xy long legs.
As expected, she was truly fascinating and gorgeous in that dress. He could not help but let out a sigh of admiration, his eyes shining. "Looks really good."
Tang Xinyang was happy with his small praise.
She smiled and bent her neck slightly like a swan examining her feathers. "Well, even though many eyes will probably stick on my legs later downstairs, I think I can keep up with it," she said thoughtfully while gazing at the s.e.xy thigh and slender legs shown bare by the long slit on her gown.
Jang Shin: "!!!!!"
His dense mind was suddenly thundered. He just realized that indeed, many people, especially perverted men, would surely glue their eyes on those beautiful legs. Some might even be tempted to touch it!
Why did he forget it?
No! He could not allow that!
"Actually, thinking about it, I think it d-doesn't look good. Let's change to something else."
"Huh? But you said it looks good..."
"No. You actually look like a stilt walker*."
"...." That bad?!
Jang Shin hurried fast to the bed and looked for a more 'normal' dress, leaving Tang Xinyang looking disappointedly at her 'stilt-walker' legs.

(A/n: Stilt walker- is the one you see in circus. The clown with long legs. They walk stepping on a stilt.)
