Chapter 1666 Sweetheart
But Li Chi quickly withdrew his gaze and said lightly,
"Once we enter the city, let's go buy Fuyi some clothes first."
Xia Fuyi then remembered that she hadn't changed her clothes for several days. Her ears suddenly felt hot. She turned her head away with a cold face and stopped looking at Li Chi, but she didn't know that this action just brought her red ears into the man's sight.
His lips, which were three points lighter than those of ordinary people, curled up slightly under the mask, and he lowered the curtain calmly.

The carriage slowly drove into the green city wall.
It was as if a barrier had been silently broken through, and the bustle and prosperity that was completely different from that outside the city came into Xia Fuyi's eyes.
There were vendors hawking their wares, begonia branches sticking out from the walls on the roadside, men and women coming and going with swords or other weapons at their waists, and even martial arts arenas arranged in circles everywhere.
"They're making a bet,"
Lian Tang saw that she was staring at the circles, so he explained to her,
"Many people who participate in martial arts tournaments will find someone to compete with beforehand to warm up, just to get a feel for the other person's strength. And these small-scale competitions usually attract a lot of people willing to watch."
Xia Fuyi nodded and withdrew her gaze from the person who was pushed down by a palm, with a somewhat bored expression.
Lian Tang followed her gaze and smiled.
"Of course, there are also many people who cheat in bets like this because they don't want to expose their strength. Who knows if tomorrow's opponent might be among those watching?"
The carriage passed through the busy streets and stopped in front of an inn.
The waiter quickly took the carriage away, and the three of them put their luggage away and went out to the street.
Following the directions of the locals, they found what was said to be the best clothing store in the entire Feihua City.
For some reason, Xia Fuyi's ears never stopped burning as she listened to Li Chi asking people for directions.
She was a little dazed when she was directed to change clothes after entering the store. When she came to her senses, the heavily made-up proprietress had already handed her a light blue dress.
Xia Fuyi looked at Li Chi. The man was dressed in a dark black robe and stood beside her with his hands behind his back. He was looking up at the women's dresses hanging on the wall. Noticing her gaze, Li Chi turned around and raised his chin at her, probably meaning "take the clothes and change inside."
Xia Fuyi then turned around and was obediently pulled away by the proprietress.
After fiddling with it for a long time, she was finally pulled out.
Lian Tang, who was yawning out of boredom, couldn't help but be stunned when he turned his gaze.
From the first day they met, this girl had been wearing a white Taoist robe that had no gender identity. Moreover, her expression was always cold, and her fighting skills were incredibly strong, much stronger than many men. She didn't look like a girl at all, so he had always ignored her gender. He even leaned on her shoulder accidentally when he was sleeping on the shaft of the cart, without any regard for gender identity.
However, now, when Xia Fuyi came out in a light blue long dress with her head lowered, being pulled by the proprietress, her figure alone made people feel that she was well-proportioned and very attractive.
The hem of her skirt rippled as she walked, the white corset outlined her slender waist, and her slender white neck was revealed above the lace-embroidered collar.
She stopped in front of Li Chi with the sword in hand. When she looked up, her eyes wandered around, but she didn't look at the man opposite her.
But the boss lady refused to let her go, and she covered her mouth with her paddle and giggled.
"I'm not saying anything, but the girl is the most beautiful and the best-looking, yet also the shyest heroine I've ever seen in all my years in Feihua City."
She turned her eyes to look at Li Chi who was opposite Xia Fuyi, and her smile became more and more meaningful.
"But I can understand that even the most powerful heroine will always turn back into an ordinary girl in front of her loved one."
