Chapter 023: An Uninvited Call

I followed Cheng Xiaoman and took the elevator to the department store on the second floor. Everywhere there is a golden splendor wafting with soft music, although it is not as majestic as the palace of Luoyang City, but it is a magnificence that I have never seen. The dazzling array of goods, wading in them, made me a little dizzy.

I was dizzying, looking around, and had to sigh that today, a thousand years later, is more than 100 times more prosperous than Luoyang in its heyday.

Cheng Xiaoman slapped me with his elbow and said with a smile: "Don't be in a daze! ”

I see that this place is extremely luxurious, and the price must be very expensive. Although in that dynasty, the Xiahou family was rich and powerful, and I never worried about money, but at this moment, I was in a foreign country and had no money, and I couldn't bear to let her spend more money for me.

I whispered, "The clothes here are very expensive, why don't we change them?"

Cheng Xiaoman glanced at me curiously, and then laughed heartily: "This ability to pay is still there, one or two sets are not a problem." ”

I was grateful and said, "Thank you, Miss Cheng!"

Cheng Xiaoman stopped, his expression was very serious, "I want to explain two points to you." First, you are not allowed to call me Miss Cheng in the future. Suddenly, she smiled weirdly, patted me on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Second, all the money I spent for you will have to be repaid to me in the future." ”

I hurriedly replied: "All the opportunities it has in the day, I will return Miss Cheng ten times and a hundred times!"

Cheng Xiaoman asked: "Huh?"

I hurriedly changed my words: "Oh, little man!"

Cheng Xiaoman waved his finger: "Girl, get it!"

I'm not good at socializing with men and women, so she made her blush and heartbeat a little, and stammered, "Little ...... Spreading. ”

Cheng Xiaoman nodded with satisfaction: "Well, let's go!"

Then it became Cheng Xiaoman's home field, and I was pulled to try various styles of clothes. But I'm also enjoying it, and I'm at the mercy of it, because I haven't worn any of these clothes before.

"This one, and this one! Well, give it a try!"

"Well, no. ”

"No! it doesn't match your style. ”

"This set, go in and try it again. ”

"And these shoes!"

……

Cheng Xiaoman suddenly covered his nose and said in a low voice: "It stinks!" A burst of stench came to my nose, it was indeed extremely stinky, and I almost fainted.

The shopping guide made a crying face, made a "hmm" sound, and pointed to my boots: "Yours!" After speaking, she quickly held her breath and flirted her collar to cover her nose.

I'm so embarrassed that I want to change back. Cheng Xiaoman threw me a bag, held his breath and said in a thick nasal voice: "Don't wear it!

I hurriedly wrapped my boots with my hands and feet. Cheng Xiaoman dared to approach and asked in a low voice, "You haven't changed it in the past few days?"

I smirked, "I don't remember." ”

Cheng Xiaoman rolled his eyes and was speechless for a while.

For almost an hour, I carried a large bag in both hands. At the same time, he also changed into newly bought clothes, looking at himself in the mirror and smiling silly. To sum up, this person does rely on his appearance for three points and his dress for seven points.

Cheng Xiaoman circled around me as if admiring his own artwork, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad! 9 points, I'm afraid of your pride." ”

I was grateful, but I didn't know how to express it, I just smiled at her in return. I feel that it is difficult to express my emotions at the moment, except for the most sincere smile.

Cheng Xiaoman also laughed and said, "Look at you stupidly!

I reached out and pulled my jeans at my thigh, and said bluntly, "It's a little tight!"

Cheng Xiaoman smiled: "It's good to get used to it." ”

We walked around casually twice, but Cheng Xiaoman didn't buy anything for himself. I asked about her, and she said she was not lacking. Looking at the time, Cheng Xiaoman said, "It's almost time, let's go back." ”

Outside the mall, the road seems to become more crowded with pedestrians and vehicles, and the air is being squeezed out.

"Follow me, this way!" Cheng Xiaoman took the lead, shuttling through the crowd, turning back to greet me from time to time. I stumbled with my bag, a little clumsy compared to her swallow-like figure.

Cheng Xiaoman fanned himself with a hand-made fan, and said to me: "Wait here, it is estimated that the bus will arrive in a while." ”

β€œHello darkness my old friend.” A cell phone rings. Cheng Xiaoman took out his mobile phone from his satchel, and when he saw the caller ID, his face changed, and he hurriedly answered: "Editor-in-chief, hello!"

Unable to hear what the other party said, Cheng Xiaoman said in a hurry: "Oh, editor-in-chief, there was a delay last night, I will go back to revise it immediately now, and I will send it to you tonight." ”

The more Cheng Xiaoman said, the more anxious he became: "I will definitely send it to you before eight o'clock tonight!"

"Editor-in-chief, ...... at eight o'clock" Cheng Xiaoman didn't finish his sentence, and the other end of the phone should have hung up. She stood in place eating and eating in a daze with her mobile phone in her hand, her eyes filled with tears, but she endured it and did not slip.

I whispered, "What happened?"

Cheng Xiaoman glanced at me, teary-eyed, pursed his lips, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I was expelled." ”

Before I could speak, I saw Cheng Xiaoman slowly squatting down with blank eyes, holding his head in both hands, burying his face between his knees, his shoulders trembled, and he cried silently.

I stood beside her and tried to reach out and pat her on the shoulder several times, but I didn't know what to say to comfort her, and I shrank back again.

We just froze in place, I don't know how long it took to do this. The lights on the side of the road began to come on, and the buses passed one after another, and the people on the platform walked in waves and waves.

Cheng Xiaoman finally raised his head, his face was still a little ugly, and his mood seemed to be much calmer. looked at me, and said with a smile: "Anyway, we are going to take a taxi back, why don't we eat something here." Are you hungry?"

I looked at her eyes, which were still a little red, and asked, "Is it because of the ......?"

Cheng Xiaoman interrupted me with a wave of his hand and said with a smile: "It has nothing to do with you, it was because I was too excited last night and forgot to revise the draft." Let's go, take you to something you've never eaten before. ”

Cheng Xiaoman walked over, pulled my sleeve slightly, and then walked out of the platform silently. Facing the sunset in the sky, the shadow behind her was stretched very long. The twilight breeze gently ruffled her hair, and the autumn was cool.

I sighed and followed.

Continue shamelessly asking for recommendation votes and collecting.

I picked up a QQ number that I hadn't used for many years, and I created a QQ group like someone else, but there was no one yet.

Hahaha, I can't help but want to laugh. So shy!

If anyone likes Little Page's "General, Smoke a Cigarette," you can add it in and let me know you. That way I'll be more motivated.
