Xu Guowei: “…”

Zeng Jing: "Do you think I don't know?"

Xu Guowei: "Okay..."

However, Xu Zhe also chimed in at this time: "Mom needs to buy groceries, pay for heating and water and electricity bills, and spend a lot of money. Dad, it's really unreasonable for you not to contribute some of your own money."

Zeng Jing: “That’s right!”

Xu Guowei was filled with indignation for a moment: "You have earned hundreds of thousands of dollars, and you are still thinking about my few hundred yuan of private money. Where is your filial piety?"

Seeing that his father was about to cry, Xu Zhe shook his head and said, "Okay, I'll pay for it myself."

Zeng Jing smiled happily: "Okay, okay, let's go!"

Xu Zhe waved his hand and said, "No, I can buy it myself. Mom, don't follow me."

Zeng Jing was stunned on the spot: "Why?"

Xu Zhe looked back at the closet. He knew that most of the clothes in it were bought by his mother, and none of them satisfied him - they were simply low-end versions of the youth version of Highland House.

Compared to the clothes picked by his mother, Xu Zhe would rather wear school uniform.

So at this point, he said bluntly: "I don't really trust your taste in clothes."

"Puff..." Xu Guowei couldn't help laughing. Obviously, after making sure that he didn't need to empty his private money, the man's mood immediately brightened.

Zeng Jing said awkwardly, "Okay, okay, okay, mom will measure you. It's easier to choose clothes after measuring your height."

Xu Zhe nodded: "Okay."

So Zeng Jing took out the measuring tape that she had prepared long ago, asked her son to stand up against the wall, and measured it carefully.

"1.61 meters tall. He's growing so fast! He must have grown more than ten centimeters in two years, right?"

Xu Zhe smiled and said, "It shows that physical exercise, proper nutrition and work and rest schedule are still useful."

He remembered that in his previous life, he was only over 1.6 meters tall when he was in high school, and his height never exceeded 1.7 meters after it was set. But thinking about his physical condition and living conditions in his previous life, it was normal.

How tall can I grow in this life?

At this time, Xu Guowei suddenly asked: "How much budget do you have for buying clothes at the mall?"

Xu Zhe thought for a moment and said, "If I buy a few sets, one thousand yuan should be enough."

Xu Guowei: "You should let your mother go with you. She won't be at ease if you go alone."

Zeng Jing: "You're not going?"

Xu Guowei collapsed on the sofa: "You can call me to play billiards, but forget about buying clothes."

Before online shopping really took off, the big shopping mall in the city center was the first choice for local residents to shop.

As soon as he stepped in, Xu Zhe felt a certain pressure.

The pressure came from her mother. She passed by a men's clothing store, picked up a POLO shirt hanging at the door, and suggested to her son: "Try this?"

Xu Zhe took a look at the dress she was holding.

The yellow and red stripes and black collar all highlight the extraordinaryness of this fashionable item. The traditional style is matched with the bold color, giving people enough visual impact...

Xu Zhe couldn't help but complain: "This is too eye-catching."

"What does it mean to be eye-catching?" Zeng Jing shook the clothes in her hand again, "Look, how energetic you are. How well-dressed a young man like you is."

Xu Zhe: "Don't make any shopping suggestions. I'll buy them myself, okay?"

Then his cell phone rang.I took it out and saw that it was a call from Song Xingye.

After the call was connected, the girl on the other end asked, "I'll be at Feifei's house soon. Will you join us today?"

Xu Zhe: "No, I have something to do today."

"Oh, so..." Song Xingye asked with a smile, "Can you tell me what it is?"

The girl's voice was soft and sticky, which made him feel like he wasn't being checked up on. Of course, with their current relationship, they couldn't even think of checking up on him. At most, it was just a casual chat between friends, right?

Xu Zhe replied: "My current clothes don't fit me anymore, so my mom dragged me out to buy clothes."

Song Xingye: "Where did you buy it? In that big mall?"

Xu Zhe: "Yes, I'm already here. So I guess I won't have time to talk to you guys today..."

Song Xingye said happily: "Then you can find my mother! My mother has a store in a large shopping mall. Although she sells women's clothing, she knows many of the colleagues there and has a good relationship with them. Let her take you shopping, the price will definitely be much cheaper!"

Xu Zhe: “That’s not bad.”

----

After finishing the call with Xu Zhe, Song Xingye immediately called his mother, Li Caixia.

The girl held the handlebars of the bicycle with one hand and held the phone with the other. The residential area where Tang Lingfei lived was already in sight, but she stopped at this moment, thinking about making the call before going in.

"Hey, Xingye, what's wrong?"

The background noise on the other end of the phone was a bit noisy, and the girl was quite familiar with it. Whenever her mother made a phone call in a shopping mall during work hours, there would inevitably be such noise.

Song Xingye said: "Are you free now? I have something to ask of you..."

Li Caixia laughed: "You have something to ask of me? Sure, just tell me."

Song Xingye: "Xu Zhe is also at the mall now. He wants to buy clothes, so can he come to you?"

Li Caixia was puzzled: "I sell girls' clothes, why did he come to me?"

Song Xingye: "You also know the owner of the shop that sells boys' clothes. You can take him around and help him bargain."

After these words were spoken, the mother on the other end of the phone fell silent.

After waiting for a long time and getting no response, Song Xingye couldn't help but ask again: "What do you think? Is it okay?"

Li Caixia sighed: "As the old saying goes, girls who are outgoing will bend their elbows outwards... The problem is, this is just the beginning, there is not even a hint of your destiny, where are you going?"

Song Xingye couldn't help blushing at this, and argued, "I didn't turn away. He's also in the mall, and so are you. It's just a piece of cake."

Li Caixia: "You understand what it means to raise a finger. If he comes to my store to buy clothes, I will give him a bigger discount, and it is still a simple effort. But when he buys men's clothing, I put down what I am doing and take him to another store. We also need to help him negotiate the price, which is called nanny service!”

After hearing what his mother said, Song Xingye realized that he had indeed thought too simply.

The girl's tone also became a little frustrated: "What should I do? I told him that I can find you..."

Li Caixia also hesitated for a while, and finally sighed: "Okay, then I'll help him this time. Anyway, your father is still working part-time for him, it's good to have more contact with him."

Song Xingye's mood suddenly turned from gloomy to cheerful: "You agree? That's great!"

Li Caixia: "Don't be complacent yet. Wait for me to come back tonight and I'll have a good talk with you."

Song Xingye was stunned: "What are you talking about?"

Li Caixia: "Of course, let's talk about what you are thinking about now!"

"When choosing clothes and pants, they can't be too loose or too tight. For example, if you choose a loose top, the lower body should be narrower; if you choose a tighter and smaller top, then the pants below should be looser. Otherwise, the whole person will look a little bit wrong..."

"The colors of clothes should either be different or as close as possible. For example, can you wear a blue top with blue pants? Yes, but the blue should be particular. If the blue of the upper body and the lower body is somewhat similar, but can be seen to be obviously different, it will not look good. Either use the same blue, or use one blue and the other white to distinguish the colors. In addition, the colors that are least likely to go wrong and are the most versatile are black and white..."

While taking Xu Zhe into the men's clothing store, Li Caixia introduced him some basic dressing skills.

These words touched upon the blind spots of the mother and son's knowledge. Xu Zhe listened very carefully, and Zeng Jing did not dare to interrupt.

After listening to the introductory class on dressing, Xu Zhe quickly picked out several sets of clothes. Then he tried them one by one and finally got a dazzling effect.

This is a pair of black overalls, a white short-sleeved shirt, and a black baseball cap.

The color is simple, but the style is exquisite, and when worn by the tall boy, it adds an uninhibited street style. Especially the hat - because the school has requirements on the length of boys' hair, there is no way to play with the hairstyle, but after putting on the hat, it looks very handsome.

Xu Zhe looked in the mirror and suddenly felt that maybe he could try rap.

The mother beside him groaned: "It's pretty, but not energetic enough, that kind of youthful vigor..."

Xu Zhe: "I beg you to keep quiet about the clothes."

Li Caixia said, "Do you want to buy some shoes? There is a store here that sells good quality shoes, and they also have insoles for height increase."

Xu Zhe's eyes lit up: "That's great!"

Today's tutoring only lasted for more than ten minutes, and Tang Lingfei noticed that Song Xingye was a little absent-minded.

The tutoring class was English, and Song Xingye's teacher asked her to memorize words, and then she would check them one by one after she finished memorizing them. While she was busy memorizing, Song Xingye took out her cell phone and texted with someone...

Tang Lingfei inexplicably became concerned.

Song Xingye's interpersonal relationships were simple, and she knew it. Apart from herself, the only person who could make Xiaoye talk non-stop was Xu Zhe? Otherwise, it couldn't be that she was chatting with her parents, right?

Nearly half an hour passed like this. After checking the results of memorizing words, Song Xingye said, "Fei Fei, take a break. After memorizing words, it's time to memorize phrases."

Hearing this, Tang Lingfei couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't you say before that we should try not to repeat the learning pattern? Memorizing words and phrases are all memorizing things. We should memorize things for a while and do exercises for a while, right?"

Song Xingye: "Oh, yes, then let's do two sets of reading comprehension later."

Tang Lingfei nodded, but couldn't help asking, "Xiao Ye, are you worried about something today?"

Song Xingye was slightly startled: "No, what's on your mind?"

Tang Lingfei: "I feel like you seem a little..."

Song Xingye smiled and said, "Fei Fei, you think too much."

Therefore, Tang Lingfei didn't know how to ask any more questions and could only continue to do the exercises and study.

After more than an hour, today's tutoring session ended.

"Fei Fei, take your time and have fun. I have to go home first!" Song Xingye smiled, changed his shoes and went out.

Tang Lingfei, facing the closed door, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

She had never thought about similar questions before, but today, her best friend's abnormal behavior finally made her think.

Why is Xiao Ye so absent-minded today? He just said he was going home, but did he really go home?

Although she couldn't come up with a solution, Tang Lingfei didn't force herself to think in vain, because she realized that there were other ways that might be able to answer her confusion.

So she took out her cell phone and called Xu Zhe.

However, no one answered.

Is Xu Zhe busy? Or does he not want to answer?

For some reason, Tang Lingfei felt even more panicked. Fortunately, she tried to dial a second time, and this time the call was successfully connected.

Xu Zhe: "Hello, what's going on?"

Tang Lingfei couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved: "What are you doing?"

Xu Zhe replied, "I was shopping for clothes with my mother. She found that my clothes didn't fit, so she dragged me to the mall."

"So that's how it is..." Tang Lingfei muttered, "So it doesn't matter."

Xu Zhe: "What does it mean?"

Tang Lingfei: "I mean Xiao Ye. Today I noticed that Xiao Ye seemed to be busy texting with someone, and I thought it was you."

Xu Zhe: "Oh, it's not me, it should be with her mother."

Tang Lingfei had a question mark on her forehead: "What do you mean?"

Xu Zhe explained, "Because I'm with Aunt Li right now. Her store is in the mall. Xiao Ye knew I was in the mall today, so she asked Aunt Li to help me pick out clothes and bargain."

In an instant, Tang Lingfei felt as if a ray of light flashed before her eyes, just like the reasoning to solve the mystery in Detective Conan. That kind of epiphany, and the epiphany gained through her own thinking, seemed to be something she had rarely experienced.
