Just as I was walking back with the basin, I saw Gu Lingxiao coming from the other end, carrying a bag in his hand, looking like he had bought something again.
So she hurried over.
When Grandpa Bai saw Gu Lingxiao arrive, he was overjoyed. The more he looked at them, the more well-matched they seemed. He stroked his beard and thought to himself, "At this rate, I'll definitely be able to attend their wedding next year."
There's no way around it; at his age, every day he lives is a day more, and he wants to see the next generation live a good life.
Lu Zhixia looked at Gu Lingxiao, who was dressed in casual clothes. If he were to wear a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he would be incredibly abstinent.
"Why did you buy something again?"
"You always wear the same few outfits. When I went shopping, I happened to see these two nice pieces, so I bought them for you." Gu Lingxiao handed over the cloth bag.
"Go inside and try it on to see if it fits. I asked the waitress to help me try it on because she's about the same height and weight as you."
Lu Zhixia didn't take the bag. Seeing that Sister Su Lan and Grandpa looked like they were watching a good show, she quickly grabbed his sleeve and pulled him back into the house.
She then closed the door and decided to talk to Gu Lingxiao, reminding him that people should have some boundaries.
Looking at the tightly closed door.
Su Lan and Grandpa Bai couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Zhixia looked at Gu Lingxiao and said, "Clothes aren't something anyone can just buy for whomever they want. Don't do that."
"I only want to buy it for you," Gu Lingxiao said.
“But this is not appropriate,” Lu Zhixia said.
Gu Lingxiao took a step forward, and Lu Zhixia took a step back. They took turns taking steps until they had nowhere left to retreat, and she leaned against the wall.
Then the man reached out and trapped her in place.
The two were so close that they could feel each other's breath.
Thinking of her grandfather and Sister Lan outside, Lu Zhixia could only whisper.
What are you going to do?
"I want to know why it's inappropriate?" Gu Lingxiao asked directly.
"It's not appropriate for us to buy clothes together given our relationship."
"But I think it's suitable."
"I can't accept the clothes."
"I've already bought it, so I can't return it."
"Then I'll give you the money."
"If that's the case, then should I give you money too? You've helped me a lot these past few days." Gu Lingxiao reached out to tuck a stray hair behind the woman's ear.
"Comrade Lu, why don't you calculate who owes whom between us, settle all the money, and then settle the accounts?"
The man's voice lingered, and Lu Zhixia gazed at his face, which was so close to hers.
"Could you please not stand so close to me?"
After hearing this, Gu Lingxiao withdrew his hand, took two steps back, and asked in a pressing tone,
"Have I caused you any trouble?"
“Gu Lingxiao! You need to think about your family. There are some things you can’t do,” Lu Zhixia said, mustering her courage.
Gu Lingxiao frowned. Why should he think about his family?
He was pursuing his own happiness. Did Lu Zhixia dislike his overly proactive attitude? She then adopted a serious expression.
"I see."
Lu Zhixia felt that she had made herself very clear, and since he had already agreed, she could turn the page.
Considering that he joined the army at a young age, he probably didn't know much about relationships between men and women, so he didn't understand what boundaries were. Thinking about it this way, everything makes sense.
The clock struck 8 o'clock, and they all looked over.
"Shouldn't we set off?" Gu Lingxiao asked.
"Okay, I'll change my clothes. You go outside and wait for me."
Gu Lingxiao put the bag on the bed. "Well, I've already bought these clothes, so you can keep them! I'll be more careful next time."
After saying that, he walked to the door, opened it, and went out.
Looking at the bag on the bed, Lu Zhixia walked over and opened it. Inside were two long-sleeved shirts, one red and one made of gauze, and two pairs of pants, one black and one blue.
This girl has a good eye for choosing clothes; she likes the styles.
As I've already explained, since I've already bought the clothes, it would be a bit odd not to wear them, so I picked out an outfit to wear.
Gu Lingxiao stood outside waiting, and when the door opened and he saw Lu Zhixia in her new clothes, his eyes lit up.
He felt that this red dress suited her perfectly!
Delicate yet not seductive, beautiful yet not gaudy!
"This dress is really beautiful," Su Lan complimented.
"Little Gu has good taste," Grandpa Bai said.
Lu Zhixia hadn't looked in a mirror before, so she turned around and went back into the room to look at herself in the mirror. Indeed, this outfit suited her very well. She touched the fabric and guessed that it wasn't cheap.
Gu Lingxiao was very satisfied with the result; it seemed his judgment was correct.
