After realizing that Gu Qingze had let go of the warm embrace, Chu Lingxiao rubbed himself hard in his arms again as if he was still clinging to the last bit of warmth, and then left reluctantly.
"Qingze, so... am I really special?"
Chu Lingxiao's eyes were sparkling, and his pure black pupils were staring straight at him.
"Yeah." Gu Qingze looked straight into his eyes without hesitation and nodded solemnly.
He had never thought of hiding it in the first place, and now that Ling Xiao brought it up, he had the chance to confide in him.
"Then...what's special about me?" Chu Lingxiao looked curious, moved closer to him, and asked impatiently.
"Hmm... I guess every place is special."
Gu Qingze pondered for a while and simply answered, "The Son of Fortune" is favored by heaven in all aspects, so there is nothing wrong with his answer.
"Everything about it is special..." Chu Lingxiao seemed to be lost in thought. After a moment, he suddenly laughed softly.
Facing Gu Qingze's doubtful gaze, Chu Lingxiao gently patted his shoulder, no longer insisting on this topic, but instead brought the conversation back on track and reminded:
"Qingze, noon is almost here. We only have one hour left. If we want to prepare, we must hurry up."
"Ling Xiao is right, but... what are we preparing for?"
"Didn't Helan Feng say that we must dress solemnly and have thorough etiquette? We just need to pay attention to etiquette and other things when we go there. The only thing we can prepare right now is probably the clothes."
Chu Lingxiao provided ideas in an orderly manner.
Gu Qingze nodded in agreement, but then a new question arose: "Are the standards for respectable clothing in the demon world the same as in the human race?"
Chu Lingxiao pondered for a moment and replied, "It should be pretty much the same. Look at Song Jinnian's mother, Song Ya, she's dressed very gorgeously. The expensive clothes in the cloth shop are also very consistent with the human aesthetic."
After hearing this, Gu Qingze gradually felt relieved. He took out sets of clothes from his storage bag and controlled them with his spiritual power, making them float around for them to choose from.
"Ling Xiao, which of these clothes do you think can be considered solemn?" He put his arm around his shoulders affectionately and asked with a smile.
"Huh?" Chu Lingxiao looked incredulous. "Qingze, are you asking for my opinion?"
He is usually not picky about clothes, as long as they are comfortable and convenient. Unlike Qingze, he changes his clothes almost every few days, and there is even space in his storage bag specifically for storing clothes.
Although he is quite confident in his own aesthetics, Qingze is still more familiar and adept at this aspect, right?
"Yes." Gu Qingze looked at him softly, "After all, these are clothes for yourself, so it's better for you to choose them yourself."
Chu Lingxiao heard some deep meaning in his words and asked tentatively, "Qingze, you don't mean to ask me to choose a set for myself from here, do you?"
Gu Qingze blinked, looking confused. "Isn't it possible? Most of these clothes are still brand new, or have only been worn a few times. Ling Xiao and I have similar body shapes, so there won't be any problems with them not fitting properly."
He seemed to have thought of another possibility, staring at him with a look of grievance: "Could it be that... Ling Xiao dislikes me?"
Chu Lingxiao quickly waved his hands and explained anxiously, "Of course not. I'm just... a little curious. Why did Qingze suddenly have the idea of asking me to choose an outfit from yours?"
"Because... most of Ling Xiao's clothes are casual, not particularly formal. But if I go buy some now, it's too late, so I came up with this idea."
Chu Lingxiao nodded: "Is that so? Then these... can I choose whatever I want?"
"Of course." Gu Qingze's tone was somewhat matter-of-fact.
Chu Lingxiao raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He carefully selected for a while and finally picked out a piece of clothing that caught his eye. He tried it on himself a few times.
"How is it?" He turned and looked at Gu Qingze.
"It looks very good." Gu Qingze nodded in agreement without hesitation.
A smile flashed in Chu Lingxiao's eyes, and he quickly made a decision: "Then I'll wear this one."
After saying that, he pretended to take off his clothes.
Gu Qingze came back to his senses instantly and stepped forward quickly: "Ling Xiao, you don't have to do anything. Let me help Ling Xiao change. It's quite troublesome to put on this dress by yourself."
He took the clothes and walked behind Chu Lingxiao, putting them on him very carefully.
“It’s perfect.”
Gu Qingze moved a little further away and looked at it carefully for a while: "I even think that it would be more suitable for Ling Xiao."
Upon hearing this, Chu Lingxiao teased him deliberately: "Since it suits me better, why not give me this suit?"
After hearing his words, Gu Qingze actually began to think seriously: "It's not impossible. After meeting the Demon King and coming back when you have time, Ling Xiao, you can try a few more sets. If you think you like it, just take it away."
Seeing his serious expression, Chu Lingxiao wanted to tease him even more: "What if you like all these clothes of mine?"
Gu Qingze said without hesitation: "Then give them all to Ling Xiao. It is a great honor for these clothes to be favored by Ling Xiao."
Seeing that he was getting more and more exaggerated, Chu Lingxiao smiled helplessly, covered his mouth with his hand, and changed the subject:
"Qingze, you haven't chosen yet, right? Hurry up and pick one too."
Gu Qingze nodded obediently, and then made his choice almost without thinking. It seemed that he had already decided on the clothes he wanted to wear.
Seeing that he wanted to change it himself, Chu Lingxiao imitated his previous actions and pretended to help him change it.
Gu Qingze noticed his movements and waved his hand with a smile: "Ling Xiao, I can do it myself. This suit has many little tricks and is not easy to wear."
Seeing this, Chu Lingxiao didn't force him, but just stood aside and watched him with a smile on his face.
Gu Qingze quickly changed his clothes and stood in front of Chu Lingxiao. He asked with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, "Lingxiao, how do you like my outfit?"
Chu Lingxiao looked her up and down carefully, his eyes full of admiration, "It suits her very well, it makes Qingze look even better."
Gu Qingze smiled and gladly accepted Ling Xiao's praise. He estimated the time and said, "Now that everything is ready, let's go gather."
