"Senior, this doesn't seem to be the way to the rented apartment."

In the car, Lin Xun asked with some confusion.

Su Qingshi said calmly, "Let's go to another place first."

Lin Xun nodded: "Okay, senior."

About ten minutes later, the two arrived at the bustling city center.

"The wet market?"

Lin Xun suddenly realized that his senior had come to buy groceries.

"We're out of vegetables at home, so I'm here to buy some and see what we can have for lunch today."

Su Qingshi's voice was calm and gentle, like a clear spring.

For a moment, Lin Xun had the illusion that the two of them were like family, chatting about everyday things.

"What are you spacing out about?" Su Qingshi looked at Lin Xun, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Lin Xun snapped out of his daze and shook his head: "There's no senior here. Let's go see what dishes are good to eat."

He had an urge to hold his senior's hand, but he didn't dare.

The two strolled through the market. Su Qingshi was very beautiful, so even the older men and women in the market frequently cast their gazes at her with curiosity and amazement.

This girl is so beautiful! And her hips are perfect for bearing a son!

Su Qingshi wasn't wearing a mask; she was completely without makeup. Even so, her natural charm was undeniable.

Of course, Lin Xun's looks aren't bad; in this vegetable market, he could be described as looking like a male celebrity.

Handsome men and beautiful women!

The two instantly became the focus of the entire event.

Su Qingshi was used to the stares and pointing fingers of the crowd, but Lin Xun felt somewhat embarrassed and nervous.

"What are you so nervous about?" Su Qingshi's amused voice came over.

Lin Xun's face stiffened slightly. He leaned closer to his senior and whispered, "Senior, I feel something's off. People are looking at us like we're rare animals."

Su Qingshi glanced around and said, "You're overthinking it. It's just that the presence of two young people like us here is a bit conspicuous. Just treat it normally."

Lin Xun was both amused and exasperated; his senior was so confident.

At this moment, Lin Xun felt his left hand being covered by a warm, soft sensation.

He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked down to see that his senior had actually taken his hand!

!!

No way, no way? Is he dreaming?

Su Qingshi looked away, as if she wasn't the one holding Lin Xun's hand, but her earlobes inexplicably turned red.

Are you still nervous?

Lin Xun didn't know how to answer. He was already nervous, but now he was even more nervous!

Being led by his beloved, he was flattered yet incredibly nervous, as awkward as a startled deer.

However, my senior's hands are so small and soft, they feel so comfortable to hold.

Lin Xun unconsciously increased the force slightly, but his expression remained unchanged.

She paused, feeling her heart race, then lowered her eyes and said, "It seems you're not nervous anymore."

After saying that, she subtly freed herself from his large hand.

For a moment, the two of them felt a tacit sense of emptiness.

"Senior, I still want to hold your hand."

Lin Xun opened his mouth subconsciously, his words sounding somewhat drunk.

Su Qingshi glanced at him indifferently, a half-smile on her face: "Dream on."

Lin Xun had a bitter face.

Upon seeing this, Su Qingshi's lips curled into a smile, her beauty breathtaking.

Since their last meeting, their relationship has inexplicably reached a special stage, like a windowpane that will break if you try to poke it!

However, the aloof goddess is not good at expressing her emotions, and she is more passive in matters of the heart.

Our Comrade Lin Xun is still planning how to confess his feelings to his goddess, and for the time being, he is also following the rules and not overstepping them.

However, the two shared an unspoken understanding.

"Let's go, if we dawdle any longer, we'll be in time for dinner," Su Qingshi said promptly.

Lin Xun smiled and said, "Okay!"

He was now in an extremely happy mood, and the tension from before was long gone, because now, in his eyes, only his senior sister was shining brightly!

"Boss, how much is this fish?"

"These crucian carp? Young lady, you've come to the right place! Our place is the most affordable fish shop around here, eleven yuan a pound, and they're definitely freshly caught this morning!" The owner was an older woman wearing a waterproof coat, and she was quite easy to talk to.

Su Qingshi looked at the fish in the pond, a thoughtful look flashing across her beautiful eyes, as if she were choosing which one was better.

"These fish are delicious. The crucian carp alone weigh at least three pounds each," the older woman told Su Qingshi.

Su Qingshi nodded, about to speak, when suddenly...

"Boss, how much is this tilapia per pound?"

Lin Xun pointed curiously at a tilapia.

The shop owner chuckled and said, "Tilapia is cheaper, seven yuan a pound. It's suitable for braising, frying, or steaming, and it tastes great."

Lin Xun's eyes lit up with interest; Luo Fei was one of his favorite dishes.

"Then let's have one."

At this moment, Su Qingshi suddenly spoke.

Lin Xun was a little surprised. He looked at Su Qingshi and scratched his head: "No way, senior. You like to eat crucian carp. Let's buy some crucian carp."

He was just asking, knowing that his senior was interested in crucian carp.

The senior student said calmly, "I'm not picky, as long as you cook... well, as long as you cook well."

Lin Xun's eyes lit up, and he looked at the shop owner: "Boss, I'll have a tilapia, not too big, please process it for me."

"Okay!"

The boss deftly grabbed a tilapia weighing about a pound and began scaling and processing it, while chatting with Lin Xun at the same time.

"Young man, is this your girlfriend? She's really pretty!"

Lin Xun glanced at Su Qingshi subconsciously; the latter's expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened.

He chuckled and said, "Not yet, this is my senior."

"Oh! So you two are still single? I thought you were a couple. You look like a perfect match," the boss said in surprise.

One sentence made them both a little embarrassed.

Lin Xun dealt with his boss, but he felt something was off, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Soon, Luo Fei was treated. At Lin Xun's request, all that was needed was to cut open his stomach, remove his internal organs, and clean him.

After paying the bill, the two continued shopping.

"Boss, can you make this pork cheaper?"

"Girl, there's been a swine fever outbreak lately, so pork is all priced like this!"

"Everyone else sells it for twenty, but you're selling it for twenty-four, that's a bit expensive."

"The quality of our meat is much better than other brands."

"Then I'll go check out the next place."

"Wait! Twenty it is, how much do you want!"

"..."

Lin Xun looked at the senior student who was haggling with the shopkeeper in surprise. He didn't expect that the senior student had this side to her.

It has to be said that with her hair tied up in a ponytail, standing in the market, the senior student really exuded a more down-to-earth and approachable vibe, and looked even more virtuous.

Su Qingshi calmly handed the pork to Lin Xun.

"Senior, you're amazing!"

Lin Xun praised without any reservation.

Su Qingshi glanced at him indifferently: "Don't you know how to bargain?"

It seems the other party's family is the richest in the world?

Lin Xun immediately replied firmly, "Yes! I used to bargain all the time. Senior, you take a break and watch my performance!"

With a confident look on his face, he walked towards a vendor.

Su Qingshi watched his retreating figure, a hint of a smile appearing in her eyes.
