Chapter 54: Buying Lingerie

  "Stop messing around, come out quickly!" Gu Xi pressed the hang-up button with some impatience. Is today April Fool's Day? Why was she being fooled like this? Unknowingly from when, she didn't allow herself to be defeated by him so easily.

  Ling Hao Yu heard her straightforward words and, as expected, appeared in front of her at lightning speed. He pulled up a chair and sat down across from her, saying, "Eat something to fill your stomach first, I cooked a lot of delicious food at home, we can eat more when we get back."

  "Aren't you just having breakfast?" Gu Xi continued playing with his phone on WeChat without lifting his head to look at him.

  The words that just popped out, completely despising my own IQ. What time is it now, it's already dark. Breakfast? Maybe there's a hidden meaning, didn't they have a great conversation while eating when they first came out?

  "Aren't you having a fever?" Ling Hao Yu reached out and touched her forehead, with that mischievous smile and a face full of evil intentions.

  "You look like you're running a fever?" Gu Xi shook off his hand, hating the evil smile on his face that still insisted on playing this role.

  As soon as the words fell, the eyes of the surrounding customers cast a curious glance at them. Originally, there was no other meaning, but when it reached everyone's ears, it was different.

  It was an awkward scene, she really wanted to find a hole to hide in, but with Ling Haoyu being such a popular figure, there were people everywhere trying to get a glimpse of him. Fortunately, he was low-key and not too showy, as more and more customers came in, the noise of ordering food could distract many people's attention.

  Gu Xixin thought that she really couldn't stay here any longer, otherwise tomorrow the one on TV would be her, and she didn't want to be slapped in the face everywhere.

  "Waiter, I want to take away my dumplings. 'Rebirth of Urban Little Flower Arranger' looks good." Gu Xi just called out, and the waiter happened to bring out a steaming bowl of boiled dumplings. After hearing her words, he turned back to the kitchen to re-pack them.

  "Why don't we eat here?" Ling Haoyu said softly.

  He faintly heard his stomach growling, this girl was doing something very considerate of his face, just like him in the past, everything seemed perfect.

  "Here you go!" The young man came out carrying a bag and handed it over to Gu Xi with a smile.

  "Let them come and eat you!" As the waiter got up and left, she stood up and beckoned to Ling Hao Yu with a hooking motion of her hand, but when he happily approached, he was stunned by this sentence.

  It felt like his blood vessels had been pricked, his stiff face gazing blankly at her cold expression until she walked out the door before he said again, "Oh yeah!"

  They walked away from the dumpling house for a while, and Gu Xi only discovered that he had accidentally dropped his chopsticks on the ground. He thought to himself that he should also throw away this box of dumplings.

  "Wait a minute!" Ling Hao Yu saw that she was biting her lip with some displeasure, so he went back to the dumpling house and took two pairs of disposable chopsticks.

  But Gu Xi seemed to have not heard his words, and didn't stay in place waiting for him. She just looked a bit distracted, suddenly feeling a slight pain in her lower abdomen, the feeling was very vague, as if it was stomachache again.

  When he walked to the zebra crossing, he forgot to look at the traffic light. When a white bus passed by and blocked Ling Hao Yu's line of sight, his face was already covered with blue veins. Three seconds later, he saw her in the convenience store across the street, taking out cash and pointing at the cigarettes in the glass cabinet in front.

  "Come here!" Ling Hao Yu grabbed her hand that was handing over the bill and pulled it back with force. His expression was very serious, with a somewhat solemn atmosphere.

  "What's wrong with you? I'm warning you, don't look for trouble!" Just as Gu Xi thought he could break free, his hand relaxed and the dozen or so yuan worth of dumplings fell to the ground. This time it was really over, no need to waste any more useless thoughts in his head.

  "What's with the 'something on your mind, nothing on your mind'?! Did you know how worried I was when you were walking in the middle of the road just now? All day long, all you do is smoke and drink!" Ling Hao Yu only felt that the two pairs of chopsticks behind him had been gone for a while when he saw the fast food box fall.

  "Let go!" Gu Xi shouted at him with a glare.

  As the crowd walked by, they started to gather more and more, as if this bustling area was always filled with people chatting after dinner. They pointed and whispered behind their backs, seeing Ling Hao Yu's gesture of stretching out his hands. A thread of fear crept into her heart, he wouldn't actually pick her up and walk away on the spot, would he?

  "Stop! I'll go myself!" Gu Xi is now very cautious in everything she does, afraid of slapping herself in the face. She had already fallen into a pit and jumped back out several times, saying so as she took a step forward with a gesture.

  This district has many small streets with numerous intersections. According to tradition, it's a pedestrian street, where vehicles rarely pass by, making people feel more relaxed.

  After messing around for half an hour, Gu Xishi occasionally turned his head to look back and saw Ling Haoyu following him foolishly, secretly laughing in his heart, sometimes thinking that he looked like a child was very cute.

  "Hey, since you like following me so much, why don't we go to that store?" Gu Xi said, looking at the Urban Beauty lingerie store next to them, with its pink decorations and a colorful array of underwear on display.

  "Alright!" Ling Hao Yu wondered in his heart about the clothes and accessories he had bought for her before, which she had never accepted, filling up the closet. But today, why did she let him pay so easily?

  "Welcome to Urban Beauty, please come in and choose at will, wish you a happy shopping!" Inside, there were five or six young girls as sales guides, wearing light makeup, uniform pink T-shirts, and white skirts. They were all dressed up like dreamy girls, with bright smiles. The store was divided into small areas, including the Pink Girl Zone and the Sensual Mature Woman Zone.

  "Come here, the latest chapter of Min Guo Xiao Meng!" Gu Xi was actually just probing his reaction, deliberately ignoring several sales staff leading to the girls' section, while he himself walked straight into the sexy mature women's section, which was actually the lingerie area. There were transparent and sexy ones, and the sales staff were preparing to introduce various styles and their performance and advantages to customers, but when they turned around, they only saw the man standing beside them with a somewhat shy expression.

  "Oh!" Ling Hao Yu was completely bewildered, thinking that the situation wasn't good. His underwear had been seen through by her, and indeed, his taste had changed, there must be a conspiracy behind it. He carefully walked to Gu Xi's side, but was attracted by a promotional page as big as A4 paper.

  Inside is a wild model, wearing black lace see-through lingerie lying on the bed, with eyes that can kill many men, dressed like a cat.

  "Do you want to scare me to death?" Ling Hao Yu said with a slight chill, taking away the single page from her hand.

  "Miss, you have a great eye for this! This is the limited edition of this season. If you like it, welcome to try it on!" The young sales assistants chimed in unison.

  Maybe they think the man next to them is too charming, or this series of underwear is very expensive and can earn a lot of commission when sold, so everyone is scrambling for this business!

  "Then I'll take this one!" Gu Xi took the limited edition underwear and pants from the salesperson's hands, with a price tag of 1288 yuan. It was indeed a bit too expensive for such a small street. For Gu Xi, this price could buy many clothes. When she picked it up from the shelf, she deliberately handed it to Ling Haoyu first and smiled mischievously.

  "Ah, miss, wrap it up!" Ling Hao Yu had never refused her before. If she asked him to buy her a few houses, he would be willing, let alone just this small lingerie. But when he touched the smooth underwear, his heart trembled. Is this even considered clothing? It's almost like a small piece of cloth, what can it cover?

  He handed a gold card to the cashier and looked at Gu Xina's lovely ponytail, asking softly, "Do you want to buy anything else?"

  "There are many more, but not in this place. Take the things and let's go!" Gu Xi looked at the sales staff standing next to the cash register with a dazed expression, then pulled Ling Hao Yu out.

  "Welcome next time!" The sales staff all said in unison as they saw them off.

  "Where is your car?" Gu Xi asked with an unusual amount of words today, somewhat pretentiously.

  "Let's just go home." Ling Hao Yu put his arm around her shoulders, the sudden change making him worried and intoxicated.

  "Alright, I'll go get something from over there, you wait!" Gu Xi surprisingly patted his butt before walking away. Was she really flirting with him?

  "Great! Haha!" Ling Hao Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing, yet he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her.

  Gu Xi had already taken the car key and phone from his pocket in the store, and this time he slapped his butt to cover up taking his wallet again. He didn't notice, still smiling foolishly.

  She walked to the opposite street, next to the parking lot in front of the Silver Hotel, and drove out Ling Haoyu's car. She drove it to Ling Haoyu's side, rolled down the window, and sneered, "Let's go! You're so capable, right? Figure out a way to sell that dress and get home, I'm leaving first, bye!" Then she sped away like a flying bird.

  "Hey, you little scamp! Wait for me!" Ling Haoyu heard her words and habitually patted his two pant pockets, only to find that he really had nothing left, with only the lingerie he just bought in his hand.

  In the crowded crowd, he looked out of place with a dejected look, standing out from those who were in a hurry. This girl is ruthless, even taking away his phone. This time I really don't know what to do? Should I let him take it back to the store for a refund, but that would definitely be drowned by the saliva of those little girls.

  He turned a corner and saw a small phone booth next to it, thinking of calling his assistant for help by borrowing some money from the person in front. He rarely asked people for help, but standing behind him couldn't open his mouth, stuttered and walked out again, suddenly seeing KFC store in front, about 200 meters away from himself, didn't see a car next to her, in front of a police uncle showed very pitifully, but didn't know why he rushed over at the right time, heard the police comforting said, "Little sister don't cry, I'll take you home!"
