An Nan’s complaints were very subtle, mainly considering that most men have a macho mentality, thinking that going out shopping with a woman and letting the woman pay is embarrassing. She still didn’t know if Little White was such a person, so she spoke extremely softly.
Seemingly indifferent to An Nan’s complaints, Lin Mubai continued giving instructions to the sales assistant: "We’ll wear this outfit out, and pack the other two." As for the dress in the fitting room, he ignored it altogether, hoping the little woman would forget about it too; otherwise, even if they took it home, he would find a way to get rid of it.
Seeing the sales assistant deftly packing the clothes, Lin Mubai smiled lightly and spoke to the little woman beside him, "If you feel embarrassed, you can accompany me to buy clothes later. I didn’t bring a single piece of clothing to France, so you’ll have to help me pick out a few."
This seemed like a good plan to return the favor, An Nan thought to herself, and didn’t refuse his kind offer.
With the sales assistant’s enthusiastic attitude, the two of them left the women’s clothing store.
Outside the store, An Nan initially wanted to take her clothes, but the person beside her casually avoided it, "I’ll handle it."
"Alright then." Someone willing to be a porter, why not?
Returning to her normal attire, An Nan finally felt at ease. As for the previous dress, she had long forgotten it, completely aligned with a certain man’s thoughts.
Once outside the women’s clothing store, An Nan suggested buying clothes for Lin Mubai. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
"Sure, men’s clothing seems to be on the third floor."
In this regard, the two of them shared the same thought, but once they arrived on the third floor, seeing the store Lin Mubai walked into, An Nan was stunned at the doorway.
The man up front had leisurely entered the store, while An Nan still stood at the store entrance, blushing with unease; it’s not unusual for women to be in a men’s underwear store, but An Nan was just not used to it. They weren’t in a relationship, how could she buy such intimate items for him?
Standing at the store entrance, caught in a mix of emotions, the man inside came back to her side, "Nannan, why did you stop?"
Lin Mubai obviously knew the reason, or rather, when they were downstairs, he didn’t intend for her to accompany him to buy underwear. He planned to buy it casually later after getting clothes. However, upon reaching the third floor and seeing the underwear store, the thought of teasing a certain little woman occurred to him, to see her blushing face.
Now that he saw it, it was utterly adorable.
"I..." An Nan started to speak but suddenly didn’t know what to say.
The man next to her noticed her discomfort, secretly enjoying it, but his face displayed a pitiful expression: "Nannan, I didn’t bring anything. If I don’t buy clothes, I won’t have any to change into tonight."
His pitifully wide-eyed look left An Nan without an excuse to refuse. Lin Mubai seized the moment to take her hand and led her into the men’s underwear store.
Inside the store, An Nan secretly glanced around fleetingly, realizing no one was staring at her in any particular way, she felt more at ease. However, she still didn’t dare to look around too much; afraid of seeing something she shouldn’t.
