He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

Even the honest and unassuming Xiaobai couldn't hide his joy.

These two guys...

"Where did you go, Xiaobai?"

Li Mei finally saw Xiao Bai. She was carrying a bag of clothes and hurriedly went up to him, complaining that he had come out on his own without waiting for her.

"Hmm... I thought Shun-ge might be getting impatient, so I came out to find them first."

"Then wait for me to come out together! Here, this is the coat I picked out for you."

Li Mei was about to hand the bag of clothes in her hand to Xiao Bai, but seeing that he was already carrying large and small bags, she had no choice but to continue carrying them herself.

"You picked this out for me? Li Mei, didn't we agree that you would pick one out for yourself and I would give it to you as a thank you gift for troubling you so much today?" Xiao Bai's face showed a hint of anxiety, clearly displeased that Li Mei had taken it upon herself to ignore his feelings.

"No, the clothes here are too expensive. I can't accept this as a thank you gift," Li Mei said seriously. "And you can't tell anyone your mobile payment password like you did today!"

"What's going on?" Chen Shun and Yun Yi curiously leaned closer, having smelled the melon.

"Let me speak..." Li Mei, holding her clothes, sat down on a chair to rest.

"After we entered the store, we went to the men's clothing section and picked out some suitable clothes for Xiaobai. Then Xiaobai said that I should also pick out some for myself, and he could pay for them together later..."

Li Mei cleared her throat, her face showing a hint of helplessness.

"Then Xiaobai said he wasn't very good at operating the system, so he gave me his password and asked me to make the payment. He also told me to choose some things I liked, and then he ran away..."

"Of course I couldn't accept it, so I went back and picked out another coat for him before chasing after him out..."

To be honest, when she saw the long string of zeros on the balance, she almost dropped her phone, which she had only bought a day ago!

"It's just some clothes, Li Mei, you..."

“Okay, there’s a discount section over there. All the clothes I like are there. Let’s go there and pick some out. You can take me there, okay?” Li Mei quickly suggested.

This is where you can find exclusive stores of major brands, where the goods are relatively expensive.

If he were to give it to me, I wouldn't feel comfortable accepting it.

Although I had told Xiaobai beforehand that these prices were relatively high, he didn't seem to care much.

"Your favorite things are all over there, right... Okay then." Xiaobai's slightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

The two barely reached a consensus.

"Don't give your payment password to others so easily in the future, okay? If you keep doing this, you might get tricked into marrying someone and being kept as a gigolo without you even knowing it!" Li Mei earnestly warned.

Although he knew Shun-ge and had met Xiaobai through Shun-ge, he was too trusting.

Who would tell someone their payment password, which shows a long string of zeros in their account, on the very first day they meet?

If I were a gold digger, wouldn't I have him completely under my thumb?

"You tricked him into coming home?! And kept him as a pet?!" Xiaobai looked terrified.

Then, as if remembering something, she suddenly looked at Chen Shun, and then at Li Mei.

Isn't what she said exactly what Shun-ge did?

I want to sell myself to this Meimei!

Why did I trust her so easily? Just because she was Shun-ge'er and his wife's friend?

Do people in Los Angeles play such perverse games? They even keep people as pets?

"Li Mei, you...you wouldn't have tricked me into coming to your home and keeping me as a pet, would you?" he asked in a panic.

Li Mei was slightly taken aback, then tugged at the corner of her mouth and looked away into the distance.

"Haha... How could that be? Of course I wouldn't trick you into coming home to raise a football team... Haha~"

"That's good. I even thought you were the buyer that Brother Shun found..." Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest.

"What buyer?"

"No...it's nothing."

Chen Shun and Yun Yi squinted and shook their heads in unison.

Mei Mei is such a proud and arrogant person.

They clearly wanted to take her home immediately.

Yun Yi secretly nudged Chen Shun with her elbow, leaned close to his ear, and whispered with her eyes darting around:

Would you try to trick me into taking me home and raising me?

"I won't raise you, you eat so much."

"Then I'll take care of you?" Yun Yi wasn't angry, knowing that Chen Shun was just being a little shy.

He's all talk and no action.

"You can barely feed yourself, how can you support me?"

"Hmph, I can make fried rice, okay!" she said indignantly.

It just doesn't taste very good, but it's still enough to fill you up.

"I won't trick you into coming home."

"So how do you plan to bring me home?" Yun Yi chuckled, guessing that Chen Shun probably meant to marry me.

Hey.

If he proposes to me now, should I say yes?

"I'll find a sack, put it over your head, and carry you home!" Chen Shun said with a grin.

"Oh...then you'd better find a sturdy one, a regular burlap sack won't do, I'll struggle."

"Ok?"

"Of course, you'd better prepare some good food and put it on the ground. I'll go and eat it when I see it. It would also be best to bring some rope to tie my hands and feet so I can't move around..."

"Not bad, very effective," Chen Shun praised.

"By the way, should we go in and buy some clothes too? I'll buy them for you."

"I don't want to, I want to buy it from the discount section!" Yun Yi shook her head firmly.

"What?"

"Saving you money!"

"You seem to really enjoy saving me money."

"Of course! I have to prove to you that I'm easy to take care of so you can take me home!" Yun Yi blinked, nodded slightly, stuck out her tongue, and made a cute face at Chen Shun.

Chen Shun swallowed hard, wanting to pull her close and kiss her passionately.

"By the way, what were you doing here just now? I think I saw someone here?" Li Mei suddenly asked.

"Oh...they, they worked together to protect the dream of a grown man?" Yun Yi looked up and murmured.

Ultraman Tiga had already packed away all his filming props, and even went to the bathroom to take off the suit.

He hid the magic light stick that Chen Shun had used in the pocket inside his left breast, muttering incantations.

Then, with trembling hands, he took out the phone that had been set up earlier.

The bizarre and fantastical things I've experienced are now just memories, and I can't tell whether they were illusions or reality. But what's recorded by a mobile phone camera can't be faked, right?

His heart was pounding. As an Ultraman fan for over a decade, he firmly believed in the power of light.

I recorded a video that was a few minutes long on my phone.

He exhaled hot breaths, forced himself to calm down, and pressed play.

However... the camera seemed to be broken; although it recorded sound, there was no video at all.

It's as if some kind of dark magic has enveloped the lens.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the phone's camera lens was completely clean, with nothing on it.

What a strange thing...

……

……

"Yiyi, shall we become nuns?"

"Meimei, what's wrong with you? I'm not going to become a nun, I'd rather get married."

"But being a Taoist priest is a lucrative profession..."

“They are Taoist priests with a thousand-year-old tradition. You, who have become a monk, are at most just a little nun,” Yun Yi said, pouring cold water on the idea.

The four chatted as they arrived at the mall's discount section.

The number of products here is naturally much greater than in the specialty stores Xiaobai visited before.

As a country bumpkin from a small county, Xiaobai even felt a little dizzy watching it.

Fortunately, Li Mei is a fashion expert and keeps up with the trends. The clothes she chose were neither flashy nor unflattering, which made Xiao Bai praise her and sigh that it was fortunate that she was there to guide him on this trip.

Li Mei blushed and worked even harder to pick out clothes for Xiao Bai.

As for his promise to give her clothes, she had long forgotten about it.

Chen Shun also accompanied the little witch to stroll around the women's clothing section.

She skipped and hopped forward with her hands behind her back; it was clear she was in a good mood.

Yun Yi picked up a light blue dress, stroked the fabric, and began to speak to herself:

"Don't let my intention to save you money fool you; I'm actually quite extravagant with my own money."

She knew Chen Shun was right beside her.

"Many of my witch costumes are actually custom-made by specific shops, and they're very expensive."

"Chen Shun, does this look good?" She held the dress up against her body and asked, tilting her head.

"It doesn't look good."

"why?"
