“Do you want to see this style, young man?”

Several of the shop’s most prized possessions, made from pearl white lotus silk, had been sold, and the proprietress, knowing a wealthy customer had arrived, smiled even more warmly.

“Your wife must also be from the Central Plains, right? Take a look at this one.” freeweɓnøvel.com

“Central Plains style?”

Looking at the tightly covered style, Li Mo said seriously, “I think it’s not bad, but she probably won’t like it.”

“What about this one?”

“The Central Plains style hasn’t grasped the essence; it’s slightly lacking in elegance....”

“.....”

The proprietress looked at the young man for a few seconds, finding it amusing.

She then took out a Southern Border style.

“What about this one?”

Xiao Li, the gentleman, was silent for a long time. It wasn't a two-piece set, but a one-piece, a connected style made of translucent black butterfly material.

If paired with those special stockings....

Of course, he was a pure-minded good young man.

But as everyone knows, Li Mo is a Genius, and his associative abilities have always been good.

At the same time, he had a strong sense of imagery, and the effect of wearing it automatically appeared in his mind.

“When in Rome, do as the Romans do, it’s only right.”

“....”

Xiao Li, the gentleman, felt that a righteous person fears no slander.

It was only reasonable that the clothes he bought reflected some local characteristics of the Southern Border.

Well, some normal styles were also kept.

The proprietress gave them to him; she insisted on giving them.

.....

In the inn.

After soaking in the medicinal bath for a little over half an hour, the medicinal power and steam released a faint fragrance, and also flushed the woman’s face.

“He’s still not back...”

Ying Bing knew not much time had passed, yet she felt every second was so long.

Just as she was about to get up, wrapped in Scarlet Phoenix Qi, she heard the window panes rattle, signaling Li Mo’s return.

“Did you buy them?”

“I asked the proprietress to help me pick some.”

“Let me see.”

“Here.”

Ying Bing had just brought in a bag, but before she could open it....

“There’s more. I didn’t know what you’d like, so I bought a lot.”

And so.

A few minutes later, Ying Bing looked at the pile of bags stacked by the bathtub, her beautiful phoenix eyes blinking.

Alright.

He was like this; last time he went to the clothing store, he bought even more, so much that the two-hundred-plus-pound fat boss learned to walk on water with iron legs.

Thinking this, Ying Bing glanced at the other side of the screen, finding the young man’s shadow sitting upright at the table. Only then did she splash out of the tub, open a bag, and take a look. freēwēbnovel.com

The material felt a little familiar.....

Ying Bing closed the bag, then picked up another item expressionlessly....

The second item....

The third item....

The bag was clutched tightly in her hand.

“Li Mo, these things you bought...”

Li Mo sat upright, fearing no shadow: “Southern Border local styles. The proprietress said to do as the locals do, and I thought it made some sense.”

“But... so many...”

“Maybe her business hasn’t been good lately. You know, I’m kind-hearted and can’t stand to see others look sad. She insisted on giving them to me, so I took them all.”

When Li Mo was talking nonsense, his tone was still so serious.

“.....”

Among this pile of clothes, she couldn’t find a single “unvulgar” one.

The vulgarity content was extremely high.

Is this how a true gentleman “does as the locals do”?

“It’s better not to wear these than to wear them.”

Ying Bing said in a faint voice.

“Sister, wear them?”

Xiao Li, the gentleman, spoke as if possessed by a ghost.

Mainly, he remembered that the last time he used this trick, the Ice Cube was willing to eat the dishes he fed her.

Across the screen.

The graceful silhouette visibly stiffened for a moment.

“.....”

A moment later.

Han Xianzi emerged from the bath, walking out from behind the screen. Her dark hair was damp, with a few strands clinging to her pale neck. Her skin, which already blended with the moonlight, now had an added soft glow, and her eyes were still so clear and cold.

But she had put on that haori long skirt over her clothes.

“What are you thinking about?”

“There’s a martial art that can see through illusions. So, if one’s gaze is sharp enough, is it possible to see through...”

Li Mo was thinking about the Fiery Golden Eyes.

If Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram was upgraded, this should be a Divine Ability, right?

“Do you want to know?”

She looked at the young man, whose face was full of righteousness mixed with guilt, and gently narrowed her beautiful eyes.

“!”

Xiao Li, the gentleman, trembled.

When he was buying clothes just now, the hardest part of his body was his mouth, but now it probably wouldn’t be for long.

This sudden question was as lethal as the classic line:

“I bought a very sexy swimsuit.”

The youngest top ten on the Qianlong Ranking, as her title suggests, was incredibly pure and unattainable, like the moonlight—looking cold and sacred, but out of reach.

At this moment, she had just emerged from the bath.

The clothes she wore underneath were ones he had just picked out. She walked closer, her eyes clear and serene.

She whispered in the young man’s ear:

“I won’t tell you.”

“???”

Xiao Li, the gentleman, never expected that the Ice Cube seemed to have really turned a little bad!

The bad Ice Cube did it on purpose!

Xiao Li, who “did as the locals do,” reaped what he sowed. He could only quickly bend down to take a bath, test the water temperature, and bury himself in the tub before letting out a long sigh.

“This water is a bit cold. Aren’t you going to change...”

“I’ll just heat it with my True Qi. Wastefulness is shameful.”

“.....”

Ying Bing sat on the bed, listening to the splashing water inside, somewhat dazed.

Belatedly, she realized what she had just done.

She gently glanced inside her collar, her slender fingers curled up, and a Scarlet Phoenix Qi emerged. She quietly changed the clothes underneath.

“I should just throw them away...”

She muttered, throwing the changed clothes into the laundry basket.

No.

When they engaged in Dual Cultivation, their minds were connected, even if she didn’t say anything....

Not long after.

Li Mo walked out from behind the screen, drying the water from his body, only to see the Ice Cube already sitting there, communicating with the jade phoenix god.

The Ice Cube had already started cultivating? He still wanted ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) to ask indirectly.

His Seventy-Two Transformations were already at Perfection, so there was no need for him to communicate with the jade phoenix god. He planned to deduce the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram tonight.

Li Mo was about to go out for some fresh air. Just as he opened the door, he heard her say:

“Li Mo.”

“Hmm?”

“Some of my clothes aren’t dry.”

Their clothes never needed to be hung out to dry.

The Xiao Li brand dryer, everyone who used it said it was good.

Li Mo nodded, picked up the basket of clothes, and was about to dry them while getting some fresh air, but then he noticed some of the clothes inside were familiar.

It was that pearl white lotus silk undergarment, also the most expensive item he had bought.

Hmm? No, that’s not right.

Hadn’t he just bought it?

He turned back blankly, but the door slammed shut with a bang.

Had she worn it?

Xiao Li, the gentleman, picked it up.

“.....”

“Hiss....”
