Chapter 10: Shopping

Time flies by imperceptibly. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info waited until Peter finally had a little more time to find out to his horror that the school had started a full three weeks ago.

At school, Peter's condition barely changed. In terms of academic performance, he still occupies the leading position in the class, and he is still alone in terms of personal relationships, only Harry, a close friend. But Peter found himself not distressed at all by now. Saying goodbye to singleness was one of the reasons, but the main thing was that Peter didn't have time to worry about these little things now.

For three weeks, Peter's schedule was almost overwhelmed. At the same time, they have to study, train, work part-time, occasionally do nocturnal activities, and maintain a relationship with Gwen. Peter found his life and time increasingly difficult to manage. Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person, and this level of pressure may be able to drive most people crazy.

I don't know if it's because of my mental strength, but just five or six hours of sleep is enough for Peter to face the new day in a full state. And so far the homework was fairly easy for Peter, which allowed him not to spend much time on his own studies. This series of gold fingers allowed Peter to barely bear it.

But even if he could bear it now, Peter didn't know how long he would last. He felt like he was sinking deeper and deeper into the swamp, to the point where he couldn't breathe. He wanted to use every second of his life as if it were two seconds, but he still felt that he didn't have enough time. Peter had already begun to consider whether to fire his job with old Jimmy, but he was hesitant to look at the little savings he had managed to accumulate.

It will be difficult to find such a high-paying job in the future.

And in this aspect of his own strength growth, Peter also has a new development. After that night's sparring between the two, Matt officially announced that Peter had graduated from the most basic parrying training and could learn some more advanced techniques. As for what exactly he wanted to learn, Peter didn't know yet. Peter has been training for the last two weeks, while Matt is nowhere to be seen. In his own words, he is now preparing for the next round of training.

But for the first time in his mind, Peter's mind was not thinking about these tedious things. His mind had been completely drawn to something else.

And this matter started seven hours ago.

-----

First of all, Peter encountered an annoyance that would make many people envious and jealous.

After such a long period of exercise, Peter's body has grown a full circle stronger than before, and he can no longer wear many of the clothes he bought last year. He didn't take it to heart at first, but when Peter accidentally had a real muscle pop in class, he knew it couldn't be delayed.

By the way, after Peter exposed his body at that time, many of the girls in the class had green lights in their eyes. Harry also approached Peter afterwards and blamed him for not telling him such a good way of pretending. When Peter apologized with tears and laughter, Harry's wardrobe had a few more clothes that were one size smaller than him.

Peter needs a lot of clothes, and a big purchase is inevitable, and Gwen also wants to add a new dress to herself. And when Peter jokingly told her about it, Gwen suggested going shopping together on a next date.

Peter agreed quite cheerfully. Now he is not as casual about how he dresses as before. Gwen was quite particular about dressing up, and Peter was naturally embarrassed to stand next to him in a sloppy manner. Gwen had already protested Peter's dress several times. As for Gwen's vision of fashion, Peter is quite convinced.

After getting off work, Peter rushed to the meeting point agreed with Gwen. Naturally, he took Gwen's hand and pulled her in the direction of the shopping street.

Gewen's face was slightly red, and she was still a little uncomfortable with making too intimate gestures in public. Peter, on the other hand, had apparently less scruples than she did. After confirming the relationship, he will always make something that makes her quite... Headache thing. He always gets fussy on every date, which makes her a little embarrassed sometimes. But for some reason, she doesn't completely reject this feeling.

"This one should be good, right?" Gwen walked out of the dressing room in a dark blue dress and circled around in front of Peter.

"Hmm... This one goes well with your hairstyle. And the waist is very good here, which can set off your figure very well. Peter, who didn't know anything about it, began to ramble on nonsense, and after the initial perfunctory was exposed by Gwen, he began to try to fool the past in this more technical way. And this time it was clearly a success, and Gwen smiled brightly, turned and looked in the mirror again.

"Hmm... I'm worried it's going to make me look fat. Great, that's it! Gwen ran into the dressing room again, and Peter wiped the sweat from his head, glad he had said the wrong thing.

A few minutes later, Peter had one more shopping bag in his hand. The phrase that men and women are not tired of working together is obviously not tried in any scene. As a glorious porter, Peter had no less than ten shopping bags in his hands. At the beginning, Ge Wen, who clearly said that she only needed one skirt, not only had two new dresses, but also bought two pairs of jeans, a shirt and a pair of high heels. And Peter's own clothes had already been bought an hour earlier.

"Hehe, it seems like I got it all of a sudden." Gwen stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and reached out to take a few shopping bags. But Peter was rare in his machismo for a moment. He flexed the muscles in his arm, indicating that he had no problems at all.

After the things were purchased, the sun did not know when it had set. It was now close to dinner time, and the original goal had been achieved, and the two set out on their way home under the sunset. They laughed and talked all the way, and just as Gwen said that she was a little greedy, a dessert shop suddenly appeared in their sight.

"Wait a minute, I'll buy you a cold drink. What flavor do you want? Gwen's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked this Peter with great interest. Peter had a lot to complain about drinking cold drinks in the winter, but he nodded. After more than three hours of walking around the street, he was indeed a little thirsty now.

"Give me a pineapple-flavored one." After a difficult inner struggle, Peter finally gave his choice. Gwen nodded, and asked Peter to rest in the chair on the side of the road. Within a few minutes, she came back with two large cups full of milk tea. She sat down beside Peter and handed his share.

Peter took a big puff, and the cold, sweet smell ran down his throat, chilling his chest. He narrowed his eyes in contentment, and his body relaxed. He can usually run more than ten kilometers with weights, but he is inexplicably tired enough by this shopping that does not exercise much. Gwen was also enjoying her drink, and Peter's hand fumbled a few times and took her hand. The two of them didn't speak for a moment, and a warm sense of tranquility enveloped them.

Gwen was the first to break the silence. "Peter, are you free any afternoon next week?"

Peter counted on his fingers before giving the answer. "Thursday, I should be out of school until eight or nine o'clock in the evening, I don't have any plans."

"Can you come to my house? My dad wants to see you again. ”

After saying this, Gwen's neck became a rosy blush. And Peter, who reacted, almost squirted out the milk tea in his mouth. Choking, he coughed a few times in a row, and quickly hammered his chest.

"Huh!?"
