I was approached by a cat-eared girl.

“…”

Bai Xiaoqi felt a little guilty and kept silent. She never thought about the idea of ​​a world without beggars. She just felt sorry for these beggars, who were wearing tattered clothes and were being dragged into battle by their gang leader.

How pitiful! Some people die as soon as they rush in.

Even though I know these people are all actors and not really dead, I still feel sorry for them.

But upon closer reflection, she realized that she would also like to see a world without beggars, so she nodded vigorously, "Yes, that's what I think."

As she spoke, she looked at Chen Shuo's happy expression and became happy as well.

Then she reached for the yogurt on the table, inserted a straw, and held it to Chen Shuo's lips, asking, "Can I drink the yogurt? It's not cold anymore, you can try it if you don't believe me."

Eating too many potato chips and other snacks makes you thirsty, and when you're thirsty, you want to drink water, but water doesn't taste as good as yogurt, so she decided to give in to her cravings a little more.

"You held the yogurt to my mouth, and I thought you were going to feed me."

As he spoke, Chen Shuo bit the straw and took a sip. The sweet and sour taste entered his mouth. It had been out of the refrigerator for a long time, so it wasn't cold at all. In fact, it was a little warm because it had been placed next to the computer.

"If you want some, I can feed you."

"No need, you can drink it yourself."

Chen Shuo shook his head. This was the last box of yogurt. He forgot to buy it when he went out today, but seeing her still holding the yogurt to her mouth, he bit the straw and took a small, symbolic sip.

"You even bite the straw when you drink yogurt."

"Didn't you bite too?" Chen Shuo retorted.

"I learned it from you."

Bai Xiaoqi put the straw in her mouth and slowly drank. She learned to bite the straw from him, feeling that this would make her drink more slowly.

"I bit that straw, and you still drank it with relish. That's called indirect kissing."

Bai Xiaoqi nonchalantly slurped her yogurt...

Chen Shuo shamelessly leaned closer, but a small hand covered his mouth. Bai Xiaoqi shook her head and refused, "No."

"why?"

Bai Xiaoqi glanced down, although her current posture allowed her to avoid it.

Chapter Seventy-Three: I'm Looking at Rice

After watching three episodes of the TV series, Chen Shuo checked the time and saw that it was already past six o'clock in the evening. In winter, it gets dark early, and it was already pitch black outside the window at this time.

So he paused the video, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Let's go out to eat first, and continue watching when we get home."

"Can't we order takeout?" Bai Xiaoqi didn't want to go out. It was so nice to lie in his arms like this; it was comfortable and she wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

"What, you've become addicted to lying down, haven't you?"

"I didn't."

"Then get up quickly. We not only need to go out to eat, but also to buy groceries. There's no rice left at home. What will we use to cook porridge tomorrow morning? Oh, and I also need to buy you yogurt."

Upon hearing about yogurt, Bai Xiaoqi reluctantly got up, threw the empty snack bag into the trash can, and without changing her clothes, put her down jacket on her cat pajamas, wrapped a scarf around her neck, and without changing her shoes, urged Chen Shuo to hurry up and leave while still wearing her cotton slippers.

Go early and come back early, and when you come back you can lie in his arms and watch TV again.

Chen Shuo was about to change his clothes, but seeing her like this, he didn't. He put on his down jacket and then pulled the dog-head hood of his pajamas over his head.

We can't let her embarrass herself; if we're going to embarrass ourselves, we'll embarrass ourselves together.

.......

Old neighborhoods are always very convenient. There's a vegetable market not far away, and in the summer, many people drive their vans to the main road in front of the neighborhood, open the trunks, take out all kinds of cheap clothes, and sell them on the stalls for ten or twenty yuan a piece.

Unfortunately, the market is an early morning market, the kind that only opens very early in the morning, and the cheap clothes are mostly for elderly people.

Therefore, it can be said that the convenience of old residential areas has nothing to do with young, lazy people who stay at home all day and only wake up in the early morning.

These are all prepared for elderly people who go to bed early and get up early, after all, this is an old neighborhood, highlighting its age.

Fortunately, there is a supermarket a little further away that sells everything and has long opening hours, opening early in the morning and closing late. This shows that the old neighborhood has not abandoned young people.

The two people, dressed in animal-themed pajamas and wrapped in down jackets, walked outside, attracting the attention of many people along the way.

Of course, I was mainly attracted by the dog head hat and the cat head hat.

"I think we should wear normal clothes next time we go out."

Chen Shuo pulled his hat down and his scarf up, trying his best to cover his face.

The reason I bought these two sets of pajamas was mainly because I thought she would look adorable in these cat-themed pajamas. As for why I bought myself a set of dog-themed pajamas, it was just to get some matching couple outfits.

We weren't a couple back then, so I felt a little guilty about it.

Fortunately, the girl didn't notice and actually liked the pajamas. Later, she even pestered me to buy two more identical cat and dog outfits so she could change into them.

"I think it's great."

Although Bai Xiaoqi covered her face completely with a hat and scarf, it was mainly because she was cold. She didn't feel embarrassed at all; in fact, she was quite happy. "This way, everyone will know that we are a couple."

"You know these are matching couple pajamas?"

Bai Xiaoqi puffed out her small chest, her expression smug, "I found out not long after you bought it."

"No wonder you kept pestering me to buy two more identical outfits. It turns out you already had ill intentions towards me back then."

Chen Shuo found it amusing to think about it; at that time, both of them felt guilty, but they had to pretend that they had nothing to be guilty about.

"You still have ulterior motives towards me."

Bai Xiaoqi pouted. She was impulsive and wanted to kick the pebbles on the ground, but when she saw that she was wearing cotton slippers, she had to give up.

"Yeah, I'm the same way now."

"I'm already your girlfriend, do you still have ulterior motives towards me?"

"Of course, you've forgotten how much I crave your body?"

"..."

So that's what they were up to.

Bai Xiaoqi was speechless. She couldn't stop him from having a sweet tooth, and if he didn't, then he wouldn't like her.

.....

The basement floor of the shopping mall is where vegetables are sold. Ever since they started cooking at home, the two of them have often come here to buy groceries, to the point that Bai Xiaoqi is now more familiar with this place than Chen Shuo.

I dragged Chen Shuo around, and it was only a little past six o'clock. There were hardly any people around at this time.

Most young people haven't finished get off work yet, while older people won't come to this kind of place to buy vegetables. They feel the vegetables here aren't fresh, and of course, the main reason is that you can't bargain.

Housewives are experts at bargaining. Take Wu Yulan, for example. Whether buying groceries or clothes, she'll haggle with the shopkeeper for ages over every penny, then round it down to zero, and before leaving, she'll even ask for a free scallion.

Chen Shuo just couldn't learn it no matter what he tried, and of course, he didn't want to learn it either. That's how men buy things; he felt it wasn't worth wasting time on something like this.

Bai Xiaoqi is even less skilled at bargaining, since she only buys groceries at supermarkets like this, where bargaining is not an option and she lacks experience. However, Chen Shuo believes that with a little practice, she will definitely be a pro.

After all, she's a socialite.

I can almost picture the scene of her haggling: her clear eyes meeting the stall owner's gaze, her mouth agape as she keeps asking, "Can you make it cheaper?"

Thinking about this, Chen Shuo couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing that he had started laughing for no reason, Bai Xiaoqi asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"I just suddenly remembered something funny."

"What's so funny?"

"Uh..."

When pressed by her, Chen Shuo hesitated, unsure how to answer. After a moment's thought, he said, "I've forgotten the specifics."

"......"

Carrying the vegetables, rice, and yogurt they bought, the two of them couldn't go too far since they were in their pajamas, so they just grabbed a quick bite at a nearby beef noodle shop for dinner.

On the way back, I still encountered various stares from passersby. Although it's not illegal to go out wearing animal pajamas, it always attracts attention.

Moreover, it's rush hour right now, and there are tons of people on the road. In terms of proportion, there are far more people looking around than when we go out.

But Chen Shuo felt that many people weren't looking at the pajamas, but rather at the 20-kilogram rice that Bai Xiaoqi was holding.

The sight of a petite girl carrying such a large bag of rice is truly striking.

Is it heavy?

Chen Shuo was also carrying large and small bags, and despite the disdainful looks from some passersby, he tried his best to appear calm.

"It's not heavy, it's quite light." Bai Xiaoqi shook her head. She used to buy 10-kilogram bags of rice, and felt that the two were about the same.

Seeing that she wasn't blushing or out of breath, Chen Shuo chose to believe her; the forty-pound bag of rice was indeed very light for her.

He felt he should treat her better in the future, since some girls always say things like they're going to knock your head off.

But they were just saying it; this girl can actually do it.

It looks like an innocent little white rabbit.

Thinking of the cute bunny, Chen Shuo's eyes involuntarily drifted towards her chest, but unfortunately, the rice blocked his view. However, this did not affect his active mind.

Should we try touching it?

Noticing his gaze, Bai Xiaoqi looked down at the rice she was holding, then looked up and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Look at the rice... Oh, I'm looking at the rice, looking at the rice."

Chapter Seventy-Four: I Won't

The two returned home carrying large and small bags, put the vegetables and meat they bought into the refrigerator, and put the rice in the kitchen.

Chen Shuo went into the bedroom, took his computer off the computer desk, put it on the table on the bed, plugged it in, and set up the mouse and keyboard.

Fortunately, the table is big enough to fit two laptops, though it's a little cramped.

Seeing his series of actions, Bai Xiaoqi immediately understood, "Are you going to write in bed?"

"Hmm, I really want to hold you, but I have to write, so I've decided to hold you while I write, so you can still watch TV."
