Chapter 113 Hiding



But no, it doesn't.

Could it be... last night...?

What did I do to deserve this? How did my aloof male lead become like this?!

-007, what happened?

[I'm sorry, Master. Details that affect the plot cannot be viewed.]

Also, Master, 007 is going to undergo a system update. Therefore, you will lose some cheats for a period of time. Correspondingly, hidden quests will also disappear.

During this period, you will only hear about the changes in the male lead's favorability rating.

Sorry, Master... 3... 2... 1... Ding!

Luo Jiu was a little confused. She called its name in her mind, but there was no response.

No wonder 007 has been appearing less frequently lately; has it entered a hibernation period?

A sense of unease gradually rose in Luo Jiu's heart, and a feeling of loneliness welled up inside her.

Although she hated the sudden hidden quests, she couldn't deny that the system that had been accompanying her on her journeys through the worlds had alleviated a lot of her loneliness, making her realize that...

This is not a pipe dream; it is my own experience, and it truly exists.

Luo Jiu felt down for a moment.

"Jiu'er, Jiu'er?"

Xu Shaojun called out from the side, "What's wrong with this woman? She suddenly started daydreaming."

"ah?"

Xu Shaojun glanced at her helplessly and said softly, "I just asked you if you wanted to buy some clothes. What's wrong? You look unhappy."

"Oh... buying clothes! Buy!" Women love shopping when they're happy. If they're unhappy, they'll just go shopping a few more times! There's nothing shopping can't solve.

Then, Luo Jiu was stunned.

Xu Shaojun took her to a time-honored clothing store in Shanghai.

Although Shanghai was economically prosperous at the time and was among the first to come into contact with new things from abroad, some long-established shops had not yet been replaced by Western mechanized assembly line production.

This long-established clothing store makes all its garments by hand, crafted by master tailors. It was renowned in Shanghai's high society at the time.

Apart from the price being a bit high, everything else is great.

However... the price is the biggest problem.

Given Luo Jiu's financial situation, if she were to buy a piece of clothing here, the little money she had left over for the month would only be enough to eat white rice.

Luo Jiu was taken to the store by Xu Shaojun, who accompanied her as they wandered among the dazzling array of ready-made clothes and jewelry.

"Is there anything you like?"

Xu Shaojun is tall, and standing behind Luo Jiu, he made Luo Jiu appear even shorter.

His voice was deep, and the hot breath he exhaled sprayed all over the back of Luo Jiu's ear, making her feel itchy.

"I actually really like how you look in a cheongsam."

Luo Jiu was somewhat surprised and turned to look at Xu Shaojun.

"Oh? Why?"

The first time I met this man, he didn't even give me a second glance, and now he says he likes how I look in a cheongsam?

"Because it has enough flavor."

So alluring, I want to hide you away, day and night, so that only I can see you.

Xu Shaojun's gaze was deep, his pupils like black diamonds, containing many emotions that Luo Jiu couldn't understand.

This made her hesitant to investigate further, as she was somewhat afraid.

Luo Jiu quickly turned her head away, avoiding Xu Shaojun's gaze. Her slender fingers moved among the many garment rooms.

How about this one?

Luo Jiu pulled out one of the items, a dark green cheongsam.

"You look good." In my opinion, you look good in anything.
