Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 195 Ancient Times (49)

When the two entered the store, a beautiful figure came to greet them. The woman was dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, with delicate and appropriate makeup, and her every move showed her elegant temperament. After looking at the two people in front of her, she said softly: "Dear guests, what do you need when you visit our store? My surname is Bai, and I am the owner of this store. This store is the only one in this area that combines clothing and jewelry."

Seeing this, Ji Xiao took the initiative to approach him and started a conversation: "Thank you, Shopkeeper Bai. We plan to buy a few sets of clothes with local characteristics."

"Okay, please follow me upstairs." After saying that, Shopkeeper Bai led the two to the stairs. Obviously, the astute lady boss could tell at a glance that they were either rich or noble, and the best products in the store were all placed on the second floor, so she took them directly to the second floor.

Going up to the second floor, Shopkeeper Bai led the two to sit at the table by the window, and turned to the two female waiters beside him and said, "Hurry up and serve the two guests tea and snacks, and then take out our clothes and jewelry for them to choose from."

"Yes, shopkeeper!"

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Bai, for your thoughtful arrangements."

"You are too polite. Please take your time to choose. I will go down first."

Ji Xiao and Li Xiangyi were enjoying the exquisite tea and snacks while talking softly. Not long after, the two shop assistants took out all the clothes and jewelry in the store. Seeing those clothes and jewelry being placed in front of her, Ji Xiao couldn't wait to pull Li Xiangyi up and walked straight towards them.

Just when the clothes were taken out, Ji Xiao fell in love with one of them. The clothes were obviously men's style, and the whole body was bright red like blood, which was particularly eye-catching. "Xiang Yi, look at this suit, I think you will look very handsome and good in it!" Ji Xiao said happily.

However, Li Xiangyi was full of resistance, muttering: "Xiaoxiao, forget it! This is obviously a wedding dress."

Indeed, this dress is so gorgeous and eye-catching, and the accessories that match it are even more complicated, especially the bright red jade inlaid on it, which will undoubtedly make the wearer the focus of everyone's attention while walking.

Seeing that he seemed a little reluctant, Ji Xiao thought quickly and immediately stretched out her arms to tightly hug his broad and strong waist, twisting her body and said coquettishly: "Please, Xiangyi~ Please~ Just wear it~ I really want to see how you look in it, it will definitely be breathtakingly beautiful, okay? Let's wear it as a dress! And there happens to be a celebration here today."

Her voice used to be cold and clear, but now, in order to get him to wear this outfit, she began to speak with a pinched throat. However, it had a different flavor, because it was mixed with a hint of pleading, which made it really hard to refuse.

Li Xiangyi gently stretched out his arms and gently supported his beloved wife in his arms. Looking at her beautiful and charming appearance, he finally chose to give in and compromise. He looked at Ji Xiao helplessly, revealing a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Okay! But..."

Ji Xiao was so smart that she saw through the look in his eyes at a glance. She immediately realized that if she wanted him to wear this dress obediently, she might need to make some concessions and sacrifices. She bit her lips lightly, thought for a moment, and said resolutely as if she had made up her mind: "Okay!"

Seeing Ji Xiao's determination, Li Xiangyi suddenly pretended to be depressed and said slowly: "Xiaoxiao, if you feel embarrassed or unwilling, don't force yourself. I won't blame you. As long as it is your request, I will agree to it."

"No, I'm not unwilling, but you have to follow my arrangements." Ji Xiao explained quickly.

"Are you really not unwilling?" Li Xiangyi asked.

"Yeah, no." Ji Xiao nodded vigorously, indicating that she was not forced or unwilling.

After getting a positive answer, Li Xiangyi smiled in a corner where she couldn't see him, and then said seriously: "Okay then! Then I'll go change first!"

"Uh-huh, do you need my help?"

"Great! I've never worn anything like this before!"

Then, Ji Xiao signaled to the waiter standing next to her and asked him to help deliver the selected clothes to the fitting room. Then, she pointed to one of the women's clothes and asked them to bring it over together. After the two waiters placed it properly and explained in detail how to wear it, Ji Xiao felt relieved and took Li Xiangyi's hand and walked into the fitting room together to prepare to change clothes.

Since the two had never tried this style of clothing before, fortunately, they had the waiter's patient guidance, so they changed their clothes smoothly and walked out of the fitting room in no time.

At this moment, two waiters stepped forward and led them to the dressing table next to them and sat down. After the waiters helped them put on the accessories that matched their clothes, Ji Xiao stared at the image in the mirror, and then moved her eyes to Li Xiangyi beside her.

She studied it carefully for a moment, then stood up suddenly and walked slowly around Li Xiangyi, muttering, "Xiangyi, I told you that this dress would look great on you! It's so charming!"

Li Xiangyi smiled slightly when he heard this and asked softly, "How does it compare to the clothes we wore when we got married?"

Ji Xiao thought for a moment and smiled coquettishly, "Well...it's hard to compare the two. They each have their own merits. They are both my favorites."

Indeed, the robe on Li Xiangyi was as red as blood, bright and eye-catching; while Ji Xiao was wearing a blue and white dress, matched with exquisite accessories, which made her look even more charming.

When they put on the clothes, they seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, exuding a temperament that tempted people to explore in depth. Neither of them planned to change back to their original clothes, but signaled the waiter to pack up the clothes they had worn before.

Then, Ji Xiao enthusiastically selected other clothes of different styles and colors, and carefully matched them with various accessories. In a short while, she bought several new sets of clothes, almost buying all the clothes and jewelry in the store; if there were not some that she really disliked, I am afraid that even these would not escape her "clutches".

After paying the money, they left the clothes in the store and then walked towards the crowd. After eating and experiencing the local specialties, the two planned to go back; so they went back to pick up the stored clothes and walked towards the city gate. They walked and looked along the way and bought a lot of things for each other, until their hands could no longer hold them.

However, after leaving the city, Li Xiangyi found that someone was following them. It was probably because he saw the two of them buying things in a large amount of money, so he wanted to rob them.

But these people didn't think about it. If a man and a woman go out without anyone, they are either fools or have someone to rely on. They dare to rob, which shows that they are really inexperienced.

"Xiao Xiao, there are a few scoundrels following you."

Ji Xiao was too lazy to look back, but used her spiritual power to check it out, and then said, "Then let's go back directly! I'm tired."

"Then give me the things, hold me, and I will take you back."

"Yes." Ji Xiao handed the things in her hand to him, and she hugged his waist. Li Xiangyi stretched out his hand and half-hugged her, and drove towards the carriage with graceful steps. During this time, seeing that there was no one around, he put all the things in his hand into the storage ring.
