There was silence for quite a while.

They simultaneously turned back, looking towards the tail of the car, looking at the Lucheng being gradually left behind, thinking about what most people seem to see... Chen Lusi, who seems to be just an accessory to the Celestial Punishment Weapon.

They also thought about the process of him beating Igri Saba like a grandson...

Thought about his experience similar to transcending tribulation...

With a strange expression.

They really wanted to loudly tell those trapped in the ’information cocoon room,’ what on earth are you talking about!?

But unfortunately, it wasn’t possible.

Because Ji Xin issued an extremely strict order to keep their mouths shut.

They could only hold it in.

Always hold it in.

At the same time, in another car.

Shanli sitting beside Ji Xin, looked at his phone for a while, then suddenly asked, "Are you trying to protect Chen Lusi, or plan to... push him to the forefront?"

Ji Xin didn’t answer, but looked forward, "What do you think?"

"I don’t know." Shanli directly shook her head.

"Actually... I’m also not sure."

Ji Xin hesitated for a moment, then followed with a shake of her head.

Shanli: "..."

...

At the same time.

Many ordinary members of the Celestial Strategy Mansion believed the ’mysterious master’ was still prowling near the coastline, ready to deliver blessings at any time, who had once vividly killed Yan Kan and now captured the Holy Coffin Knight alive.

At this moment... they were inside a clothing store.

"How is it?"

Lin Ying stood cutely in front of Chen Lusi, then lightly stood on her tiptoes, somewhat happily asked, "Does it look good?"

Chen Lusi looked at Lin Ying before him... the elegantly blue thin sweater matched with a skirt, although the clothes were loose-fitting, they couldn’t hide the graceful curves of her figure at all; the sweater outlined the proud contours of her chest, while the slightly exposed fair calves from beneath the skirt added a touch of sexy charm to the overall look.

Indeed, it looked great.

But.

Chen Lusi turned back to glance at the sun outside the store.

Although the coastal city hadn’t been hot these past few days.

It’s clearly not the time to wear this outfit...

"Didn’t you say you wanted to see skirts?"

Lin Ying saw Chen Lusi not speaking, then slightly lifted the skirt hem that reached her calf, showing off her skirt to him.

"..."

Chen Lusi still remained silent. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

He thought Lin Ying was doing it on purpose...

At this moment, it had been nearly an hour since the two left the fitting room.

And within this hour.

Chen Lusi remembered plenty of skirt names, such as A-line skirt, dress, long pleated skirt...

As for the reason, thanks to Lin Ying.

She had already changed through one round of long skirts... but not a single skirt had a hem shorter than the kneecap.

Not even one.

It’s really hard not to suspect that Lin Ying was doing this purposefully.

But Chen Lusi had no evidence.

Moreover...

"It looks nice."

Chen Lusi looked at the charming Lin Ying before him and finally spoke.

Though he suspected Lin Ying was doing it on purpose, he indeed couldn’t bring himself to say it didn’t look good.

Some people just naturally stand out, irrespective of attire.

... Long skirt it is then.

"Oh, then buy it, anyway, you want to see it."

Lin Ying heard Chen Lusi’s compliment, then looked down to examine herself, subsequently lightly nodded, emphasizing on the words ’want to see.’

"..."

... She was indeed doing it on purpose.

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment, helplessly shook his head.

"Do you want to drink something?"

On the other side.

After examining herself, Lin Ying suddenly lifted her head, then her gaze extended beyond Chen Lusi, and she looked behind him.

Chen Lusi thought about it: "What do you want to drink?"

"Anything is fine."

"Then hold on a minute."

Chen Lusi left a sentence, then directly turned and left the store.

Lin Ying stood there, fakely composed as she watched Chen Lusi leave... couldn’t help herself, she burst out laughing, bending slightly, her laughter trembling like flowers in the breeze.

"Idiot."

After quite a while.

Confirming Chen Lusi had completely left.

Lin Ying finally barely stopped laughing, glanced around the store, then walked forward with quick steps, began picking skirts again.

And soon, she found the perfect target.

She brought the chosen skirt to the checkout counter, then looked at the female clerk whose eyes had been on Chen Lusi, carrying a light smile, politely said, "Could you please check out this first and pack it into the bag for this outfit, don’t let him see, you know, the idiot next to me just now."

"...? "

That female clerk took the skirt Lin Ying handed over, then looked at her, seemed a bit puzzled.

Lin Ying noticed, half-leaned against the checkout counter, then propped her cheek with her hand, displaying a captivating smile on her delicate pretty oval face: "I want to give my boyfriend a surprise."

Clerk: "..."
