Su Qing'an brought the two of them to the mall to solve this problem.
[Master Su, do you have enough money?]
The boy glanced at the message on his phone and at Fu Hua beside him, then typed a reply:
[It's alright, Hua doesn't need to look at the price when helping this child choose.]
The reason the girl used the message to convey her concerns was naturally to prevent Seele from experiencing any psychological burden.
She had originally planned to use her own living expenses to help the little guy, but Su Qing'an's confident reply not only made her withdraw the idea, but also made Fu Hua curious about what he had done in one day.
This person was so penniless before that he couldn't even afford a taxi fare.
This detail seems a bit too much to ponder, otherwise it seems like there's a corresponding possibility in UN law...
In short, if there are no more concerns, let's go in together.
She naturally took the little girl's hand, and after a brief, subtle struggle, Seele chose to give up.
If you slap this woman's hand off here, there will definitely be a lot more green peppers tonight.
So Seele was led into the mall by one of the two men, each holding one of her hands. This way of treating a child so thoroughly made her feel a little ashamed, but at the same time, a warmth slowly rose in her chest. This warmth, along with the mall's heating, permeated her whole body, making her very well-behaved the whole way.
Seele was overwhelmed by the constantly flashing virtual billboards around her. Various service robots were in charge of their respective positions, and the sales staff and customers coming and going only made the mall seem rather vast.
The little girl raised her head and asked:
"Sister Xiaohua, where are we going?"
Fu Hua used her phone to navigate to the map of each floor of the mall, then returned her gentle gaze and said softly:
"Now we're taking Xier to the children's underwear store."
Upon hearing this, Seele lowered her eyes. She seemed to notice something subtle, her expression shifting slightly. Her lips moved for a moment, then she murmured softly, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"That probably won't work, Sister Xiaohua."
At this moment, Fu Hua only thought that she was shy, so she gently squeezed her palm, as if to comfort the little girl and tell her not to worry.
Ten minutes later.
She and Xi'er went into the store alone, while Su Qing'an stood alone outside, her gaze distant.
In the deliberately heated changing room, Fu Hua watched the little girl's posture after she untied the layers of shackles and fell silent.
Pale, unhealthy skin came into view, and looking down from the prominently defined shoulders and collarbones, the soft, undulating curves exposed to the air displayed remarkable size and shape.
The rest of the little girl was too thin, which made this part of her stand out even more.
Fu Hua finally understood just how profound the little girl's words were.
Under her slightly amused gaze, Seele's face turned even redder, and she displayed an extremely embarrassed expression, her voice naturally becoming excessively soft and sweet.
"Sister Xiaohua, in short, a children's underwear store is probably not a good option."
Fu Hua helped her put on her initial thin clothing, her cool fingertips accidentally tracing across her tender skin and smooth flesh. As the little girl tried to stifle a soft moan, a gentle smile appeared on her lips.
"Of course, the children's size is AA."
"If it's Xier, it's probably a B. I need to tell Master Su that I'll take you to an adult lingerie store."
"You're an adult now."
After Xier finished dressing, the blush on her face gradually faded as her skin was covered by the heavy clothing. The little girl, suppressing her shame at the possibility that Su Qing'an might know her body data, said softly:
"Yes, Xi'er is not a child anymore. So, Sister Xiaohua, are you sure you're comfortable with me living with my brother like this forever?"
"Who knows when brother will commit an unforgivable crime against Seele. At that time, Sister Xiaohua will only be able to watch Seele suffer with tears in her eyes. She will definitely be very sad."
Fu Hua's mind was shocked like never before. The girl, who had always treated the other person like a child, suddenly realized that what the other person said made a lot of sense.
However, Fu Hua immediately shook her head, pinched Seele's cheek in an annoyed tone, and said softly as if amused:
“Master Su is not that kind of person. I lived with Master Su for a long time before and nothing dramatic happened. In short, he is a very proper guy. Xi’er can trust Su Qing’an.”
The little girl said with a puzzled look:
“Of course Seele knows about that kind of thing. If she didn’t trust him, she wouldn’t call him brother.”
"The 'unforgivable crime' that brother committed refers to forcing Seele to eat green peppers, Sister Xiaohua, are you getting the wrong idea?"
As she spoke, her tone became softer and sweeter, and a smile appeared on her lips.
Oh no, it's a trap within a trap.
Looking at Seele's innocent and pure expression, Fu Hua felt as if steam was emanating from her brain, releasing unparalleled heat. Her face flushed, she silently got up and pulled Seele out of the fitting room without saying a word.
This little guy is surprisingly a bit mischievous.
39. My roommate is lost in the sea of people.
These past few days have been special for the girl who just turned 15 this year.
She just entered high school yesterday and will officially begin her classes and a brand new life tomorrow.
The girl's home is in Changkong City, so it's only natural that she should enroll in a school in Changkong City.
But in reality, she went to a prestigious girls' school located in Canghai City.
The girl's family was only of average means, so after learning that the tuition had already been paid, she could only come to the distant Canghai City with a long face and obediently enroll in school.
Fortunately, her luck wasn't too bad. This wasn't the pure aristocratic academy full of rich young ladies that she had imagined. Even though the surrounding buildings and facilities exuded a silent weight of time and simple luxury, the girls of her age weren't all like cold, white towers. Instead, they all had their own vitality, which made her feel at ease.
Then, on the first day, I met a seemingly aloof but actually just a bit introverted girl as my roommate, which made it even more of a cause for celebration.
Anyone who has experienced school dormitory life knows how much energy a good roommate can save.
So today she originally wanted to invite that girl to come shopping at the mall together, partly to get closer to her.
The other reason is that classes will officially start tomorrow, and if we want to leave school after that, we can only wait for the weekend. So, taking this opportunity to see the local customs and culture of Canghai City is the right thing to do.
As it turns out, Xiao Hua disappeared without a trace, and when he sent messages, he only said that he had something to do.
It's no fun for me to wander around such a big shopping mall all by myself.
Although these facilities are all very new, there are very few places in Changkong City with such luxury, and the shopping malls here even have special smart services.
Once the relevant agreement is signed, all body data can be scanned directly using the device for electronic calculation, thereby analyzing dozens of clothing combinations available in the mall that best suit you within three seconds.
It can even predict customer preferences and recommend products after they fill out some forms and quizzes. Rumor has it that the accuracy rate of this service is as high as 97%. Purely from the perspective of efficiency and energy conservation, these features are indeed very convenient.
However, this kind of service can actually diminish the enjoyment of shopping.
It's important to understand that when girls go shopping, it's not about completing a rigorous shopping task. What they buy isn't the most important thing; what matters is enjoying the interesting things they see while shopping, the natural joy of touching and trying on dresses they like, and the surprise that comes to mind when they encounter something they truly desire.
The pleasure that requires a bit of luck and romance to create will completely disappear if that machine scans it.
To her roommate, this would be a complete nightmare, so she naturally didn't choose to experience the service. Instead, she wandered aimlessly by herself, idly looking at the chat history of Fu Hua's responses on her phone, feeling that there was more to it than met the eye.
Oh, Xiaohua must have gone on a date.
When thinking is on the right track, the rapidly flowing fragments of information instantly come together in one place.
Then, a look of sudden realization appeared on my roommate's face.
Xiaohua, you still say you don't have a boyfriend!
You still say you're not a "social butterfly"?
You've only just arrived in Canghai City, so who would come to accompany you when you go out?
Given her inexplicable blushing and smile yesterday, the most likely explanation is that someone else is outside.
The moment her roommate discovered the truth, she turned around in a flash of inspiration and saw a familiar figure strolling around the corner of the shopping mall downstairs.
A cool-looking young man in a black trench coat stood on the far left, holding the hand of the little girl in the middle. Fu Hua stood on the right, holding the little girl's other hand. The three of them, who looked like a family of three, were shopping with a clear purpose. Two seconds later, the three of them disappeared from her sight and walked into an unknown store.
In that fleeting glimpse, the roommate did not immediately feel the joy of confirming the truth.
She recalled the boy's unfamiliar profile, as if a beam of light was slowly swaying in her soul, evoking countless emotions. Then, after blooming with sorrow and joy, it swept everything away, leaving no room for anything else.
Sadness, grief, despair, joy.
All of this passed by in a blur, vanishing without a trace, like a dream that disappeared before you even woke up.
So in the blink of an eye, the girl naturally attributed it all to a mental daze caused by surprise, like a dragonfly skimming across the surface of a lake and leaving, at most leaving only a few faint ripples.
Now the ripples have subsided, and the lake is as if no one had ever been there.
Her face continued to display a carefree smile, while her turquoise eyes narrowed slightly as if she were starting to plot something wicked.
My roommate quietly followed the three of them, humming a piano piece. She felt that her originally dull and lonely life had suddenly been infused with new vitality and color.
Things seem to be getting interesting.
……
……
Ten minutes ago.
When Su Qing'an took Xi'er home, he didn't pay any attention to her size because her eyes and actions were always very proper.
This left the boy completely bewildered when he saw them walk out of the children's underwear store empty-handed.
However, seeing Fu Hua's flushed face and Seele's seemingly cheerful mood, Su Qing'an roughly guessed the truth of the matter.
Given Hua's personality and thin skin... she really isn't suited to compete with Seele on the same stage.
When we first brought the little guy home, he was still very gentle.
Well, it's a good thing, I guess.
Seeing Fu Hua's shy appearance was actually a very pleasant thing for Su Qing'an.
If you experienced the time of the Celestial Fu Hua, you will understand the reason for this joy.
It wasn't simply because the contrast was so stark that it was funny and interesting; rather, it was because he could see her everyday life before she encountered those hardships, and the boy genuinely felt a fleeting yet undeniably real joy and happiness.
This is why his phone's photo album is full of photos of the other person. Six months later, Su Qing'an may better understand the precious value of these images.
In short, the boy had no intention of disciplining Seele.
In his view, this might be a process of two girls who were not originally familiar with each other interacting and communicating.
What appears to be Hua being bullied by Seele now will later become a precious memory.
