Yao Mingyue's eyes trembled, perhaps this was what he ntioned, the real feeling of liking soone.
It's wonderful, very beautiful, it's just that she realized it might be a bit too late...
She watched Xu Musen's departing figure.
Xu Musen was at the front desk, asking the clerk to tally up his bill.
She couldn't help but pout her lips slightly again. Although she was happy to be complinted, she really hadn't received any costics from him ever since she was little...
Even a lipstick would have been nice, after all, giving a girl costics, regardless of the price, signifies a special kind of thoughtfulness.
She fiddled with various costics on the counter, but seed sowhat distracted.
"Sir, I've tallied it up, will it be cash or card?" the clerk asked with a smile, having packed everything.
Xu Musen took out his card and was about to hand it over when he caught sight of Yao Mingyue, who seed to be a bit down on the other side.
He thought for a mont and then said to the clerk, "Wait a mont."
In no ti, Yao Mingyue noticed that Xu Musen had suddenly disappeared from the counter.
She approached the clerk and asked, "Excuse , where did that man go?"
"That gentleman just went..."
Before the clerk could finish speaking, a hand stretched out from behind Yao Mingyue, carrying a bag filled with various carefully selected skincare products.
"Add this to the bill as well."
Xu Musen said as he spoke.
Yao Mingyue glanced inside the bag, and though she rarely used makeup, with skincare usually limited to masks and moisturizers.
There were items she frequently used, as well as many she had yet to try.
She looked at Xu Musen, with a hunch that he might be buying them for her, but she still deliberately asked, "Wow, so many things, are you buying them for your little girlfriend?"
"If you don't need them, I could give them to her instead."
Xu Musen raised an eyebrow teasingly at her.
Yao Mingyue's smile curved upwards, and she quickly took the bag. She inspected the contents again, and although so were unfamiliar, her intuition told her that they were quite suitable for her.
"I don't need them and won't give them away, what's mine is mine."
Yao Mingyue handed the bag to the clerk: "Go ahead and charge it, put it on his card."
Since Xu Musen was wealthy now, it wouldn't hurt to take a bit of advantage of him.
After all, it was the first ti he bought her costics.
The clerk looked at the pair, who appeared to be a couple, yet found their conversation quite complex.
But considering the commission she would earn today, she was very happy.
"Alright."
The clerk took the bag and went to verify the contents.
Yao Mingyue looked at Xu Musen with sparkling eyes, drawing close to his side with her bright and beautiful gaze.
She whispered, "You're buying costics, won't your little girlfriend be angry..."
Before she could finish, Xu Musen suddenly pinched her lips with his fingers.
"I've heard it so much my ears could develop calluses, is that the only thing you know how to say?"
Xu Musen was nearly driven to laughter by resignation.
Yao Mingyue opened her mouth and bit down on his finger.
"Seems like that's all I know... what about it?"
She spoke, her words muffled, as she bit gently on his finger with a bit more force.
The gesture was sowhat intimate, and as Xu Musen tried to pull away, Yao Mingyue bit down even harder.
Even at that mont, Xu Musen felt a slight heat at the tip of his finger.
Xu Musen pulled away with a little force, noticing the wetness on his finger and thinking back to the fleeting mont.
Looking at Yao Mingyue, he gritted his teeth and comnted, "You're really sothing now."
"What about it? You gonna hit ? Big pig's trotters!"
Yao Mingyue raised her fair and clean face towards him.
Xu Musen, unable to retort, simply moved aside, placing the bag with costics right on her face.
"Let's go."
Seeing that the clerk had finished tallying everything and he had paid, Xu Musen promptly left the store.
Yao Mingyue, holding the bag of costics with a smile on her lips, followed behind Xu Musen.
Outside, it had already turned dark.
The night in Hu Hai was even more splendid, and the charm of the magical city made this tropolis all the more opulent and enchanting.
Outside the mall, on the vast square, many stalls were set up with gas like balloon popping, dart throwing, and ring tossing.
It felt like these gas could be found everywhere, in cities big and small around the country.
Yao Mingyue didn't seem to want to go ho just yet. She pulled Xu Musen over to a stall where they were shooting balloons with guns and imdiately pointed, saying, "I want to play this."
"Grown up and still wants to play."
"I just want to play, I won't leave if we don't."
Yao Mingyue stood her ground, giving the impression that she would lay down on the ground if she didn't get to play.
It was reminiscent of the past, when she'd throw a tantrum when Xu Musen wouldn't buy her ice cream.
"Young man, let your girlfriend have a go; there's a prize if she wins."
Encouraged by the stall owner, who imdiately handed a toy gun to Yao Mingyue.
With a helpless sigh, Xu Musen stopped and watched Yao Mingyue: "Go ahead and play, I'll wait for you."
Yao Mingyue, gun in hand, lacked the natural talent that boys might have for it, firing about ten shots at the balloons, but only hitting one or two in the end.
The chance of hitting nine to get a prize seed light-years away.
"Owner, again!"
Yao Mingyue, never one to concede defeat, slapped a hundred-yuan note on the counter.
"Sure thing!" The owner couldn't stop grinning — they loved custors who were persistent yet lacked skill.
