Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 605 A Two-timer

“This one looks nice. Try it on.”

Actually, Xia Lu is not so into fashion but what surprises Gao Ge is that she knows so well about the popular brands. Especially, the brands she knows are all about men’s clothing.

Gao Ge is not an idiot. How can he not know that Xia Lu has done some research? He feels a bit touched but actually, it is more of a feeling of owing her something.

The feeling is too complex to clarify.

The shopping guide can’t even cut in.

What she wants to say has been said by Xia Lu.

By comparison, she feels that Xia Lu is more suitable to be a shopping guide, who knows so well about the matching, size and all the details of the clothes. Xia Lu even knows better about the culture of the brands than her, which makes her feel so hurt. Luckily, she doesn’t care about it too much. After all, as long as she follows them, she will get the commission. She can make money without putting in much effort. Of course she is content.

“I’ve just looked it up. There is a high-end retail store outside. I’ll take you there to buy shoes.”

When they walk out of the store, Gao Ge has carried a few paper bags.

“No need to buy so many...” Gao Ge says in a low voice.

“Of course you need them. You are a man. You should have some decent clothes,” Xia Lu says.

Gao Ge grins.

A couple near them also hears their conversation. The man wearing glasses turns around and says to his girlfriend with a dissatisfied look, “Look at that man’s girlfriend. You should learn from...” Before he finishes talking, his ear is pinched. He immediately screams shrilly, “Ouch! Ouch! Let go of my ear... I will stop fronting...”

Looking at them walking further, Xia Lu also can’t help laughing.

Certainly, Xia Lu laughs not because she feels that the couple is so amusing.

She simply feels delighted that she and Gao Ge can be mistaken as a couple by them.

She suddenly enjoys it a little.

She wishes that she could shop longer with Gao Ge.

When she was buying clothes for Gao Ge in the store, the shopping guide said to Gao Ge from time to time, “Oh my! Handsome, your girlfriend is so generous to you!”

Xia Lu just smiled and said nothing.

She insisted on not explaining.

Gao Ge also notices Xia Lu’s little trick and doesn’t comment.

He had better not be the buzzkill.

When they arrive at the high-end retail store Xia Lu mentioned, Gao Ge bought several pairs of shoes, including a pair of blue Air Jordon 1 Sneakers, a pair of Air Jordon 1 Black Toe Sneakers, a pair of Air Jordon 3 and two pairs of Adidas Yeezy Sneakers.

Actually, Xia Lu doesn’t know whether the shoes are comfortable or not. She has only done some research online and found that these shoes are trendy. Although the prices are over-boosted, Xia Lu is too rich to mind that!

“Shall I?” Gao Ge takes out his phone to pay the bill but he is glared at by Xia Lu.

“I’m not short of money.”

Then she just goes to pay the bill.

All the men in the store stare at Gao Ge with admiration.

They can’t help thinking he is such a lucky dog!

It is good enough that he has such a pretty girlfriend. Now she is even willing to buy shoes for him!

That’s what shoe-lovers would think.

No matter how rich the shoes you buy or what limited edition you get, your friends will only say, “Wow. Awesome.”

However, if you say, “My girlfriend bought me the shoes.”

They will exclaim hysterically.

“Girl, you are so nice to your boyfriend, aren’t you?” The store owner is a man in his thirties, saying with a smile.

Xia Lu replies unknowingly, “Thank you.”

After saying that, she blushes and then turns around to look at Gao Ge behind her only to find that he doesn’t hear them. She is finally relieved, who looks like a little girl who has done something bad and worried about being noticed by her parents.

“Goodbye!”

...

Walking in the street with Gao Ge, Xia Lu is in front of Gao Ge with her hands placed against her back in case that Gao Ge may see her pleased face.

“Xia Lu, you’ve bought so many things for me. I feel so flattered. Do you want anything? Let me buy it for you,” Gao Ge asks.

Xia Lu glances at him and says, “You’ve owed me a lot. Are you going to repay them all?”

Gao Ge is dumbfounded.

“What? Aren’t you going to pay me back?”

Gao Ge hastens to shake his head and says with a bitter smile, “Of course yes. Why don’t you tell me what you wish me to do for you?”

Xia Lu looks at him playfully, “Will you do whatever I ask you to do?”

“Well... Supposedly,” says Gao Ge.

“Pfff. You sound so uncertain.” Xia Lu walks backwards and rolls her eyes at Gao Ge.

Gao Ge chuckles and fails to refute.

“If you really act as I tell, will you marry me if I ask you to?” Xia Lu asks.

Gao Ge is dazed and speechless. He sounded uncertain simply because he was worried about that.

“Forget it. Just rest assured. I won’t make such a request,” Xia Lu says, “And you can never have me. Even if you are willing to marry me, I won’t marry you!”

Gao Ge laughs and says nothing.

“Hey... That diner sells roasted sweet potatoes.”

“I’ll go and buy some for you.”

Gao Ge immediately runs over.

Looking at Gao Ge’s back, Xia Lu folds her arms together and shrugs her shoulders.

She seems to feel deeply relieved with a sigh.

“Maybe one day you will really beg me to marry you?” Xia Lu mumbles.

Both men and women may fantasize once in a while.

For example, a man may fantasize about driving a luxury car and bumping into his ex-girlfriend’s tricycle while he is walking on the road or lying in bed.

A woman may dream about her dream man throwing her a big surprise and kneeling on the ground with flowers and the ring, proposing to her affectionately...

Gao Ge comes back with the sweet potatoes. They each have a sweet potato. Eating the sweet potatoes, they walk back to the courtyard.

...

Another girl also buys two roasted sweet potatoes.

The old woman fetches one from Meng Jing’s hand and stares at her smilingly.

“Did you see that? Men are not reliable.”

Eating the sweet potato, Meng Jing says nothing.

In fact, she doesn’t worry if anything is going on between Gao Ge and Xia Lu.

However, she still puts on a dejected look.

“Silly girl, it’s okay. If you feel sad, just let it out!” The old woman comforts her gently.

“Granny...” Meng Jing sobs.

The old woman feels more than happy.

She didn’t expect that she should run into such a scene when she sneaked into Qiu City with Meng Jing.

“Let’s settle in a place first if you have anything to say. There are plenty of people of the Dragon Court in Qiu City. We must be careful,” the old woman says.

She is confident enough that neither of the Dragon Court and Gao Ge notices their arrival in Qiu City. At the thought of that, she feels even more delighted, because she knows that Gao Ge can’t be acting before them. In this case, Meng Jing must be really disappointed about Gao Ge.

As long as she takes the opportunity, Meng Jing will surely become loyal to the Ghost Sect and her.

Well...

She loves to see him act as such a two-timer!
