Lin Shuang walked out of the dim alley and glanced at the deluxe candied hawthorns in his hand under the lively lights.
They were still shiny, without a speck of dust. Imagining the joy of the two girls, he smiled lightly.
He held the candied hawthorns as he walked through the bustling snack street. The next section ahead sold clothes.
In the middle of the street were rows of outdoor clothes racks and shoe stands. The vendors' loudspeakers repeatedly advertised genuine products of certain famous brands, but they had just cut off the tags—originally priced at three hundred ninety-nine, the shoes here were only thirty-nine a pair.
On both sides of the street were the facades of boutiques, mostly run by young girls. Each sign was prettier than the last, and each store name more inventive.
Lin Shuang found Su Wan and Yu Zhishui in one of the stores. The two girls were choosing dresses, and when they saw him enter, Shuishui came over, smiling, and linked her arm with his, "Come try the new dress, darling~"
Wanwan held up a black dress, clearly indicating they were picking a dress for him.
He brought the candied hawthorn to Shuishui's mouth. The little dum-dum chomped down on a big grape, tasted the sugar coating, and fed it back to him mouth-to-mouth.
"It's super delicious, darling~ Hehe, have some more~"
Lin Shuang chewed on the grape and then cupped Wanwan's head to let her taste it too.
Everyone gets a share~
Wanwan pouted with disgust but still took a small bite, "It's covered in both of your saliva... hmph, but the grape is quite fresh and tasty."
She took the candied hawthorn off his hand and shoved the black dress into his arms, "Youyou sis, go try on this new dress."
"...Why did you buy a dress for me!"
"So you can accompany me in the future, darling~"
Lin Shuang dressed as an adorable girl, hanging out and playing with the dim-witted idol Yu Zhishui—admittedly, it was quite a safe plan... No need for a "secret relationship" anymore; they could go wherever, hand in hand. Even if paparazzi caught them, it would only look like two close sisters.
Shuishui also wanted to stick with her darling anytime like the other girls at home.
Lin Shuang, of course, could only fulfill her little wish.
He grinned foolishly, "…So it's true that there's no such thing as zero times in cross-dressing, only countless times!"
Wanwan hooked her arm around his shoulder, "Youyou sis, just go along with us, ehehe~"
The three "sisters" laughed and joked in the corner of the boutique before the two actresses shared a frostbitten candied strawberry with him, then put on their masks and pushed him towards the fitting room.
The dress's waist was quite loose, but a belt could adjust its fit—it was indeed a convenient design for women's clothing.
Lin Shuang sat on the sofa in the fitting room, holding the dress and zoning out for a few seconds.
A manly man like him, how did he end up sitting in a women's fitting room, trying on a dress!
The dress was indeed quite pretty, but he'd rather see Wanwan and Shuishui wear it!
Lin Shuang stood up and just as he took off the dress, the fitting room door opened again.
He was startled, hands held protectively in front, "Shuishui, what are you doing!"
It was Yu Zhishui who came in, showing the matching dress in her hand, "I got one too—a matching couple's outfit with darling~"
Even though they both looked like girls... why squeeze into the same fitting room!
Just then, the shop manager's voice came from outside the fitting room, "Ladies, if the sizes don't fit, let me know."
Well... it seemed to the manager like just close friends trying on dresses together, helping each other with opinions—nothing unusual.
… Is this the perk of cross-dressing!
Shuishui responded, "Okay, manager, you go ahead, we'll try them out."
The manager then walked away in high heels.
This little dum-dum, Shuishui, continued talking while helping herself out of her outer dress.
She then promptly sat on Lin Shuang's lap.
Lin Shuang quickly supported her waist, "...Hmm, where's Wanwan?"
"Darling wants sister Wan to come in too? She's just gone to the bathroom~"
So, you're sneaking in for some alone time, aren't you! Even the last good kid in the house has learned to be naughty!
This little dum-dum trying to be naughty… was still wearing that Dance Practice Clothes, designed with an open back.
Lin Shuang, holding her, saw her tactile potential up close from the side.
So he reached out a bit… to punish the naughty kid for taking advantage!
Shuishui still held his hand, guiding him...
"Darling… Shuishui's heart is racing."
She whispered softly into his ear, "Darling, Shuishui has a little secret to tell you~"
It sounded like kids sharing secrets.
But the little dum-dum's face was so red.
Guess it's a secret about doing something naughty.
"So, what is the secret."
"Darling, I know how babies are made now…"
"...Where did you learn this from?"
Who's spoiling the last good child of the house!
"It was Yixin sister~ Ehehe, I saw you playing games with her last time so I..."
Shuishui bit her tongue, blinking, "So I kind of... threatened her a bit, darling won't blame me right?"
Yixin sister~ you wouldn't want everyone to know about the time you secretly played games with darling in front of the other girls, right?
…Seems like the result of bad woman training camp! Even little sister Tong Ge learned this!
Speaking of which… Yixin's really teaching both Ah Yao and Shuishui! Head of bad woman training huh!
"…No, I just planned to teach you personally."
"Hmm... Yixin sister only taught me the theory..."
Speaking of which, Lin Shuang had a tidbit now: how to handle these one-piece Dance Practice Clothes when you need convenience. You can't just pull it down in one go.
Take note, everyone: for convenience, these one-piece outfits usually have buttons or zippers in the right places, very practical.
This was Lin Shuang's experience from studying Wanwan's Dance Practice Clothes before…
Now, the little dum-dum Yu Zhishui in his arms showed him this ingenious design.
This little dum-dum seemed eager to graduate from training camp, to become the top student in the new batch of the bad woman training camp!
"Darling… you never play with Shuishui, that's too bad… hmph..."
