Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 460 The Day Before Valentine's Day (Part )
Jiuguang Department Store was once the largest shopping mall in the city.

Although many customers have been diverted to the new CBD after its completion, there are still many customers in the mall during the busiest time near the end of the year.

The division of functional areas in this kind of old shopping mall is not as clear as in new ones. Apart from the supermarket on the underground floor and the dining area on the upper floors, the divisions on the middle floors are more mixed.

There are some mid- to high-end clothing stores, as well as some niche hobby stores such as model stores, game stores, and boutiques.

It’s not as high-end and clean as the new shopping malls, but it’s more like a real department store.

However, in Lu Mingfei's memory, the Jiuguang Department Store inevitably went into decline after a few years, and eventually only the cinema and some scattered shops in the department store were still barely able to maintain operations.

On the one hand, it may be due to the subsequent development of the Internet and express delivery industry. On the other hand, it is the emergence of various new large-scale plazas that have made these shopping malls that are visually behind the times become obsolete.

Many people probably have such a shopping mall in their memories. It used to be the busiest place around your home, but with the process of urbanization, it was eventually eliminated and became an empty building. Along with those memories, it slowly disappeared from your life.

However, the Jiuguang Department Store still retains its former bustling scene, with people everywhere. Lu Mingfei looked around but did not see many girls.

Fortunately, at this time, the spy Chen Wenwen sent him a message: "We are going to the third floor!"

However, when Lu Mingfei asked Chen Wenwen which store on the third floor she was in, there was no news from Chen Wenwen.

……

In a large boutique on the third floor, a group of boys stopped at the door and looked into the store through the transparent glass wall.

It is human nature to join in the fun. Many passers-by saw this scene and were curious about what was going on. So when they passed by the store door, they turned their heads to look.

Then their eyes were unconsciously attracted to a few girls standing in front of the shelves on the inner side.

"Holy crap! What's going on with this store?"

“Is this a TV show?”

"I don't know. But if it's a TV show, why don't I see any crew or cameras?"

"Maybe he's recording a show? Nowadays, many variety shows are recorded with miniature cameras."

The people watching at the door were talking about it. Some guessed that this must be a TV series, some guessed that the TV station invited artists to record a variety show, and some said that it was a girl group doing a street challenge.

Otherwise, how could it be like a nest of beauties has exploded, with super beautiful girls hanging out in this small shop as if they were free?

You can't blame them for guessing in that direction. In the impression of ordinary people, it is normal to meet beautiful women while shopping, but meeting a group of beautiful women while shopping is indeed beyond imagination.

Generally, similar situations can be seen in variety shows recorded by some TV stations.

Su Xiaoqiang, who was in the store, naturally noticed the crowd watching outside and curled his lips in impatience.

Although she usually gets a lot of attention when she goes shopping, it is not often that she is surrounded by people and treated like a star like today.

大概是四个女生在一起，发挥了1+1+1+1＞4的功效。

Of course, Su Xiaoqiang couldn't stand the feeling of being stared at, so he turned around and asked, "How about we go to another store?"

Then she saw Chen Wenwen's body tremble and she immediately put the phone back into her pocket.

"?"

Su Xiaoqiang didn't notice Chen Wenwen's nervousness, and asked in surprise: "Wenwen, what's the matter? I saw you texting with someone from just now."

Chen Wenwen quickly denied it: "No, nothing happened."

"If you have something to do, just continue with your work. It's okay."

"Yeah." Chen Wenwen shook her head: "It's really okay, I'm done with my work. By the way, Qiangqiang, didn't you just say you wanted to change stores? I think we can try another store too."

"Where's Miaomiao? Ask her if she wants to go shopping again." Su Xiaoqiang looked around.

"Oh, Miaomiao just told me that she and Xiaomi went to the other side to take a look." Chen Wenwen said, as if she was afraid that Su Xiaoqiang would see something, and took the initiative to ask: "I'll go over and ask her." ...

Lu Mingfei stood on the escalator going to the third floor, wondering why Chen Wenwen hadn't sent him a message after so long.

As soon as I turned around the elevator, I saw a crowd of people in front of me. I almost thought there was a health product company giving out free eggs.

Walking a little further, until he saw a crowd of people gathered in front of a store with a sign that read "XX Boutique", Lu Mingfei heard the noisy discussions of passers-by.

"Guess which girl is the heroine?"

"I think it should be the prettiest one, the one wearing the lamb coat and the high ponytail."

"I think it might be that fierce-looking girl. Isn't this kind of savage girlfriend very popular in TV dramas recently?"

"..."

The more Lu Mingfei listened, the more curious he became. He wondered if some film crew had used the Jiuguang Department Store as a filming location for a TV series?
Lu Mingfei walked closer curiously and glanced into the store.

The moment I saw Su Xiaoqiang's beautiful and menacing profile, I immediately understood what was going on.

"It's really hard to imagine filming a TV series..."

Lu Mingfei sincerely admired the imagination ability of these passers-by.

But after all, they are the four campus beauties of Shilan Middle School, the little angel Liu Miaomiao, Chen Wenwen and Xia Mi. Just one of these people is enough to attract attention.

Maybe when they usually go out shopping together, with her boyfriend by her side, people around them won't focus as much. Now that there are only four girls together, it doesn't seem surprising that it can cause such a big sensation.

However, Lu Mingfei became curious. What on earth did they want to do by secretly excluding his boyfriend?

A passerby was curiously discussing with his friend: "But if it's a TV series, why don't we see the male lead and the crew? I think maybe it's just beautiful women shopping."

"What's wrong, you want to chat up?"

The man was just about to smile and ask, "Don't you want to?", when he felt someone suddenly push him from behind.

I was just getting angry and was about to complain when I turned around and froze.

A tall and handsome boy pushed through the crowd and squeezed in with a smile.

"Borrowed, borrowed."

Lu Mingfei smiled as he walked through the crowd and entered the store.
Su Xiaoqiang turned his back to the door, folded his hands over his chest, stamped one foot, and glanced at his watch impatiently.

"Why haven't Wenwen and the others come back yet?"

She thought that she should have gone to the CBD center earlier. Although the variety of goods there was not as wide, the shops were all high-end and there were thresholds to enter, so she wouldn't be surrounded by people like she is now.

When Su Xiaoqiang thought of the person at the door, he felt furious. Coincidentally, at this moment, he heard a voice behind him talking to him.

"Beauty, are you shopping alone?"

Su Xiaoqiang thought that someone really came here to bring bad luck, but before she turned around, the other person's hand was on her shoulder.

She was stunned for a moment, and was about to slap the other person in the face, but the moment she turned around, she was grabbed by the other person by the wrist.

"Why, is the first greeting today so intimate?"

Lu Mingfei grabbed Su Xiaoqiang's wrist with one hand, put his arm around her waist, and asked with a smile.
