Chapter 53 Girl or Boy
The afterglow of the setting sun bathed the entire street in a magnificent glow, and the number of pedestrians gradually decreased.
On the streets of Xuzhou, a woman in a red shirt led a handsome young man straight to a small tavern.
"Doggy, what do you want to eat?" I asked with a smile.
The dog looked at me obediently, with an adorable expression that said, "Anything is fine."
I smiled and patted his head, my maternal glow beginning to grow infinitely... I really like this feeling.
"Yuan Shu is dead, have you heard?" Several people at the next table were whispering among themselves.
"Yes, I heard they suffered a defeat at Lord Liu's hands!"
"That kind of person deserves to die."
"It is truly a blessing for the people of Xuzhou to have a magistrate like Lord Liu who loves the people like his own children!"
A chorus of agreement erupted from all around.
I listened intently, but couldn't make heads or tails of it.
Who is this Lord Liu they're talking about? In this era of war and devastation, everyone abhors war. For a court official who leads troops to fight to have such a good reputation, if he isn't truly honest and upright, then his deep cunning is truly chilling.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Gou'er asked, looking at me.
"There's an inn across the street. Let's stay there tonight." After swallowing the food in my mouth, I pointed to a small inn across the street. After days of traveling and sleeping outdoors, it was a rare treat to be in the city. I really wanted to take a good bath and then get a good night's sleep.
The dog nodded, naturally having no objection.
only……
"Sister, the dress I saw on South Street was so pretty," the usually quiet dog suddenly said.
I smirked and looked at the dog with a grin. "Dog, you like it? If you like it, I'll take you to buy it tomorrow." I said it like a real spendthrift, since the money wasn't originally mine anyway; I was just being generous with someone else's money.
The dog looked at me helplessly, "Sister..."
I laughed, no longer pretending to be stupid, knowing that he disapproved of my strange outfit. It was still the modified red skirt from that day, and the sash that Gou'er had tied to my calves and arms was still there.
Good heavens, I'm so used to wearing jeans and big T-shirts, and suddenly having to wear those complicated and cumbersome clothes is really frustrating. I didn't feel that way a few days ago, but then one day I had a sudden inspiration and this modified short skirt is really comfortable, and it's also much easier to escape in case of danger.
Thinking of this outfit reminds me of Hua Yingxiong. That guy is so mysterious; who exactly is he?
After having dinner and paying the bill, I crossed the street and took my dog to the small inn across the street, where I asked for a room.
"Hot water is prepared in the small private room inside," the shopkeeper said with a very responsible smile after taking the money.
Finally, I can take a hot shower...
As soon as I entered the room, I couldn't wait to close the door and start undressing.
"Sister... Sister..." Gou'er stammered and took a step back, his fair cheeks flushed red.
I laughed and said, "Don't worry, I don't have the habit of running around naked." With that, wearing only a single layer of clothing, I walked into the small private room and felt completely refreshed as soon as I immersed myself in the water.
I took a nice, relaxing hot bath, then glanced at the dirty shirt hanging next to me. I really had no desire to put it on.
"Doggy! Doggy!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.
"What is it!" Gou'er rushed in, then suddenly stopped at the doorway, asking nervously through the curtain, "What's wrong?"
"My clothes..."
Before I could finish speaking, a hand reached in through the doorway, and incredibly, I saw a dress on that hand. "Wow, Doggy, when did you buy this?"
The dog just laughed and didn't answer.
I pursed my lips, took the dress, and put it on. It was the same scarlet dress I'd seen on South Street that afternoon. How cunning! He didn't even say when he secretly bought it. Without a doubt, he'd destroyed the evidence of my modified short skirt…
After putting on the dress, I walked into the room feeling refreshed, stretched, and asked the shopkeeper to change the water for the dog's bath.
After being terrified and refusing my offer to rub his back, Gou'er hurriedly rushed into the private room.
What a shy child.
I laughed out loud.
Looking down at the dress he had tricked me into wearing, I still felt resentful. I stood up furtively and tiptoed towards the private room, intending to scare him and get my revenge.
Suddenly, I flung open the curtain, put my hands on my hips, and prepared to enjoy the sight of the beauty emerging from the bath in a state of panic.
Who knew... I was shocked...
The dog wasn't the only one startled...
"Ah! Sister!" Gou'er was startled and jumped up.
Then……
I was dumbfounded.
It's still a dog's face, but...
I can barely accept that her breasts haven't developed; it's probably due to malnutrition. I've recently started giving her extra nutrition, hoping to cultivate a petite beauty with full breasts and a curvy bottom… 75
But……
I stared fiercely at something—what was that?! What the hell...what was that thing?!
The dog stared blankly at me, then slowly lowered its head as I looked at it. Its face then turned as if on fire, and it hurriedly sat down in the water to hide what it shouldn't have seen.
In that instant, my illusions shattered… My plan to raise a beautiful girl was ruined. (Xiao Sheng: Pei Xiao, mind your image. At this moment, you should let out a shy scream and gracefully cover your face as you run away. Pei Xiao glances at Xiao Sheng: It's just a little kid, is it really that big of a deal?)
"Hey, look up!" I tapped on the wooden bucket.
The dog didn't move.
I gritted my teeth, reached my hand into the water, and rescued the dog from the warm bathwater, which was about to suffocate.
His handsome face was flushed, and his eyes darted around, but he didn't dare to look at me.
"How long are you planning to stay in the water?" I asked impatiently, tapping the wooden tub again.
"Achoo!" came a loud sneeze in response.
Knowing he was shy, I shook my head, turned around, and walked out of the room. "Hurry up and clean yourself up before coming out." (The young man shook his head and sighed: Is this still a woman? Her nerves are incredibly thick...)
