The landlord has multiple personalities and wants everyone to pay him.

Ye Shu finished her cake and her plum juice. The feeling of the big windmill spinning in her head was gone. Now she just wanted to hold hands with her happy friends.

Chen Hui did have something to do. After finishing the cake he had ordered, he glanced at his sister.

Seeing that she really didn't want to talk to him, he gave a wry smile, said goodbye to the others, and left.

Chen San San can really eat a lot! This is absolutely not meant to be derogatory; it's out of genuine admiration.

Ye Shu herself has no liking for creamy things; she feels nauseous after just a couple of bites.

But watching Chen San San eat until her cheeks were bulging, and she kept eating without stopping, he couldn't help but grin.

This kid has great potential as a mukbang streamer; watching her eat is truly delightful.

To be honest, Ye Shu really liked this girl. She was about the same age as Xiao Tao, straightforward and perceptive, and most importantly, she had no bad intentions. He genuinely treated San San like his own little sister.

Thinking of this, Ye Shu couldn't help but chuckle. Was this Corner Tea House cursed again? Like the kind that treats employees like younger brothers and sisters?

Chen Xing treated him this way back then, and now he treats Chen San San the same way; this can be considered a cultural inheritance.

Ye Shu was sighing over this, while Chen San San was showing off on the other side.

She's eating so fast now, not because the cake is so delicious, but because she's starting to regret it.

I should have listened to my brother and ordered less. Now all I can think about is helping the shop manager and Sister Xiaoxue choose wedding dresses. This pile of cakes seems like I'll never finish it...

If it's really like you said, that you can't handle the consequences, then with the weather outside so hot, you'd be ruined after a whole day of shopping...

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, and the faster she ate. As a result, she choked on a piece of cake instead of swallowing it, making her face turn red and causing her to keep pounding her chest.

"Eat slowly, no rush, there's plenty of time."

Zhi Qiu smiled and gently patted her back.

Chen San San picked up her drink and took a sip before swallowing the piece of cake. She couldn't help but burp, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I'm just in a hurry...hehe."

After Chen San San stuffed the last bite of cake into her mouth, the group left the dessert shop.

It was just past ten in the morning, and the sun was still gradually warming up. Ye Shu felt that if he stood on the ground for any longer, the soles of his shoes would melt.

Zhi Qiu held up the parasol, but Ye Shu argued that Zhi Qiu should just shield himself from the sun and let him continue to be in the sun.

Although my shoulders are a little sore from the sun, it's still better than suffocating.

Chen San San followed behind the two, holding a small notebook in her hand, writing down her own fanfiction material as she walked. Because she had created her own fanfiction, she couldn't help but let out a somewhat eerie "hehehe" laugh.

Hearing the sound, Ye Shu turned around to see what the child was doing, and then saw Chen San San looking at the notebook and chuckling.

"Don't you care about your eyes under this blazing sun?"

Ye Shu reached out and closed her notebook, saying:

"Watch where you're going, put it away, and study harder when you get home."

"oh."

Chen San San put her notebook into her small bag and followed behind the two, but her mind was still filled with all sorts of random thoughts.

Although it was hot, the wedding dress shop they were going to was in the area, and they arrived in about ten minutes.

As soon as I pushed open the door, the cool air, mixed with the indescribable scent of the shop's aromatherapy, greeted me before the shop assistants could even enter.

"Welcome! Do you have a reservation?"

"have."

Zhi Qiu gave her phone number, and the shop assistant checked it:

"Miss An, this way please."

Chen San San followed behind, her eyes lighting up as soon as she entered the store. She had missed out on her older sister's wedding dress selection for various reasons, and she had been feeling frustrated about it for half a month. Today, she could finally have her fill.

Zhi Qiu and Chen San San went inside to look at wedding dresses with the shop assistant, while Ye Shu didn't rush to join in the fun.

He found an empty seat and sat down, carrying Zhi Qiu's small bag. He first took out an opaque plastic bag, the kind used for clothes, which contained a pair of soft-soled slippers, a strapless bra, and safety shorts.

Ye Shu's personality dictates that she must do thorough research before attempting anything she has never done before.

He had prepared this plan well in advance. He read online that most wedding dresses are off-the-shoulder and that it doesn't look good if the bra straps are showing, so he specially prepared strapless bras and safety shorts.

Seeing that he had noticed his feet hurt from wearing high heels while changing into a wedding dress, he also prepared soft-soled slippers.

After taking out these, he mysteriously pulled a small plastic device from his pocket. It had a red plastic piece on it, which was specifically for checking for hidden cameras.

It's not that Ye Shu has a heart condition, but one should always be wary of others.

He grabbed his bag and the detector and went into the fitting room. He held the little thing in front of his eyes, opened it, and conducted a thorough, 360-degree search inside.

They checked things like doorknobs, tile grout, the back of hooks, and even tapped on mirrors to see if they were one-way mirrors. They were very thorough in their inspection.

Damn it, I've been holding back for so long and I haven't seen it yet, and you guys managed to peek?!

Zhi Qiu and Chen San San were still outside picking out wedding dresses, unaware that Ye Shu had already slipped into the fitting room.

Zhi Qiu carefully examined the cuffs of a wedding dress, and without turning her head, whispered:

"Little Shu, what do you think of this? The pearls on the neckline... um?"

Her words dissipated in the cold air of the air conditioner, and no one responded.

She turned around, only to find her little brother, Xiao Shu, who had been following her just moments before, suddenly gone.

"Little Shu, my brother?"

She took two steps to the side, went around to the other side, and saw Chen San San also looking down and carefully studying the lace on the wedding dress.

"What's wrong, Sister Xiaoxue?"

Chen San San raised his head and muttered:

"The train is too long, and the waistline is too high...it doesn't look very good."

Have you seen little Shu?

Hearing Zhi Qiu ask this, she also looked around:

"No, maybe she went to the restroom?"

After saying that, she didn't seem to care much and went back to picking out her wedding dress.

"Oh dear, the shop manager is a grown man, how could he get lost? Don't worry."

But Zhi Qiu felt inexplicably flustered.

She had never done this before when she went out alone.

But now, just because he couldn't see Ye Shu when he turned around, he started to feel uneasy, as if a piece of him was missing.

She lost interest in choosing a wedding dress and wanted to call Ye Shu, but then remembered that her phone was still in her bag. So she could only stand there and look towards the bathroom, waiting for Ye Shu to come out.

Just then, the door to the fitting room next door opened, and Ye Shu emerged from it carrying her bag.

The moment Zhi Qiu saw Ye Shu, her unease vanished. Instead, she felt a strong urge to go over, hug him, and whisper a complaint, "You scared me to death," before demanding that he never disappear without a word again.

Ye Shu walked over and, seeing Zhi Qiu's somewhat complicated expression, asked:

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell due to a cold?"

"Little Shu, where did you go? You suddenly disappeared."

Zhi Qiu looked up at him, her voice softer than usual, with a hint of grievance.

Ye Shu smiled and gestured with her chin towards the fitting room over there:

"I just went to clear mines. You can go to the one on the left to change in a bit. I've checked it all, there's nothing wrong."

Looking at Ye Shu's face, Zhi Qiu felt a warmth in her heart. She reached out and touched his chin, where a few stubble peeked out and felt a little prickly.

"Little Shu's heart is still so thoughtful..."

She withdrew her hand, walked back to the wedding dress, and slightly lifted it to ask Ye Shu:

"How about this one? Does it suit... Xiaoxue?"
