It is said that shopping is a woman's nature, and even assassins like Gu Yue are no exception.
When Ye Cangtian proposed to lure the three quasi-S-class assassins lurking in the dark into the open, Gu Yue expressed her desire to buy a set of clothes.
After all, she was still wearing the home clothes Xu Weiwei had given her.
The two went to the mall and shopped for a full two hours, during which Gu Yue bought two sets of clothes.
It's unclear why she loves black so much; she wore a black stealth suit before, and the two new outfits she bought were also black.
As it was getting close to mealtime, and the two were about to leave the mall, Gu Yue suddenly remembered something. "Wait, I still have one more thing to buy!"
"What else do you need to buy? Can't we get it next time?" Ye Cangtian touched his stomach speechlessly. He had been shopping all morning and was getting hungry!
Shopping with women was indeed a test of endurance!
Gu Yue didn't say anything and walked directly to another section.
Seeing her walk into a lingerie store, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but smile. "So that's what she's buying!"
He didn't feel embarrassed at all and followed her in. The first thing he saw were various dazzling and colorful intimate apparel.
Several women browsing for intimate apparel in the store cast strange glances when they saw a man walk in, and some of the more shy ones even blushed.
Gu Yue didn't notice Ye Cangtian following her. She picked up an intimate garment and examined it.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind her. "This kind of underwear doesn't suit you. The size is too small, and the fabric is too stiff. The color is also too mature. It's suitable for middle-aged women, but not for you."
Gu Yue was stunned, and then her pretty face turned a little hot. She couldn't help but hold the item she was holding behind her back, turn around, and say angrily, "Why did you follow me in?"
This was a lingerie store, and she never expected a grown man to follow her in.
Ye Cangtian smiled brightly and said nonchalantly, "Is there a sign outside saying 'No Men Allowed'? Why can't I come in?"
"..." Gu Yue was speechless. This guy's nerve was really unusual!
"I'm not lying to you. Intimate items, whether they are clothes or pants, must be comfortable and breathable, otherwise it will affect your development!"
As Ye Cangtian spoke, he took down a pink one from a nearby shelf and glanced at Gu Yue.
He nodded critically, "This one suits you well. It fits your figure and age. The fabric is thin, and it feels good... Don't look at me like that, I'm just speaking the truth!"
The sales assistant who had just walked over couldn't help but smile. "This gentleman is right. This piece of underwear is especially suitable for a figure like yours, miss. Your boyfriend has really good taste!"
Gu Yue's pretty face instantly turned red. She couldn't help but glare at Ye Cangtian in anger. "Get out!"
This girl was actually getting shy!
Ye Cangtian couldn't help but laugh. "There's no need to be embarrassed about these things. I, a grown man, am not awkward, so why are you blushing?"
You're thick-skinned! I've never met anyone as shameless as you! Gu Yue gritted her teeth, her face red, and couldn't help but push Ye Cangtian's shoulder, saying angrily, "Go out! Go out!"
This girl was getting agitated!
Ye Cangtian turned and walked out of the lingerie store helplessly, a smile playing on his lips. The way this girl looked when she was shy was quite charming.
While waiting outside the store, he scanned his surroundings and muttered to himself, "We've been shopping all morning, shouldn't they have found us by now?"
As he observed his surroundings, Ye Cangtian's brows suddenly twitched, and the corners of his mouth curved upwards.
For a brief moment, he felt a gaze upon him, which disappeared almost as quickly as it appeared.
This meant someone had been secretly watching him and had very cautiously withdrawn their gaze.
Although the other party was cautious, Ye Cangtian had still captured it in an instant.
He chuckled and thought to himself, "They're quite careful, but let's see how long they can hold out!"
Inside the lingerie store!
As Gu Yue was choosing intimate apparel, she subconsciously glanced at the door. Seeing that guy standing obediently outside, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss, your boyfriend is really good-tempered. He doesn't get angry even when you scold him!" the sales assistant said with a smile.
"He's not my boyfriend!" Gu Yue retorted, but couldn't help a smile from appearing on her face.
Soon, she took out two sets of intimate apparel from the shelf. "I'll take these two sets!"
...
By the time the two of them left the mall, it was already one in the afternoon, so they found a nearby restaurant at random.
As soon as they walked into the restaurant, they heard the owner yelling angrily, "You want to eat without money? Are you an idiot?"
"Boss, I can work for you. I'm strong and can do the work of two or three people," said a honest and kind-looking burly man being pushed by the restaurant owner, pleadingly.
The restaurant owner sized up the man and saw that his clothes were unfashionable and had several holes. He immediately pushed him forcefully.
"With your appearance, customers won't have an appetite to eat at my place. How can I do business? Get out!"
"You!" The burly man was angry but dared not retort.
Just then, Ye Cangtian's voice suddenly rang out. "Boss, that's not how you do business. My friend, if you don't mind, I'll treat you to a meal!"
Ye Cangtian smiled at the burly man. He had seen this person at the police station that morning.
It was said that he had fought with some hooligans at the train station and ended up taking down over a dozen people. Of course, there were many people who could take on ten opponents alone.
Ye Cangtian simply helped him because he saw that the man was honest and kind.
"Brother, we don't know each other, but you..." The burly man was tall and honest, like a simple giant.
"Who said we don't know each other? I saw you at the police station this morning. Let's go, come in and eat with me!"
After Ye Cangtian finished speaking, Gu Yue, standing beside him, looked at the restaurant owner and said coldly, "Arrange a private room for us, would that be acceptable?"
The restaurant owner, who was a bully of the weak and a coward before the strong, nodded. "Then please come in!"
A moment later!
In a private room at the restaurant, Ye Cangtian ordered several dishes.
The simple giant seemed to have not eaten all day and ate three large bowls of rice continuously out of hunger.
Ye Cangtian smiled and said, "Don't just focus on the rice, eat more dishes!"
"Thank you... thank you, big brother. I don't have any money on me and don't want to take advantage of you. Once I find a job and earn money, I will definitely treat you to a meal!" the burly man said somewhat reservedly, putting down his bowl.
"It's just a meal, a small matter!"
Ye Cangtian shook his head with a smile, then asked, "What's your name? When I saw you this morning, I heard you got into a fight."
"My name is Li Dazhuang. I'm from Lajiao Village, Hongshan County. I originally came to the city to find my sister, but I didn't expect my wallet to be stolen on the train."
