Watching the embarrassed figures of several people fleeing in a hurry, Lin Yu couldn't help smiling. Just as he turned his head and was about to continue walking into the mall, Lin Yu suddenly saw Tang Manman's face with a bit of complaint and grievance.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Yu blinked his eyes and asked.
Tang Manman pouted her pink lips even higher and complained in a small, discontented voice:
"You scared me like this back then."
Tang Manman's words brought back Lin Yu's memories. Thinking of the way he scared Tang Manman not long after he transmigrated, Lin Yu really couldn't hold it in anymore.
After couldn't help laughing, Lin Yu immediately pulled a straight face and made a look of "I didn't laugh" as if trying to mend the fold after the sheep was lost.
He raised his hand and stroked Tang Manman's head as a sign of comfort. Lin Yu changed the subject and said:
"Let's go. Let's go shopping."
"Hey, it's almost Chinese New Year."
"There are really a lot of things we need to buy!"
Saying that, Lin Yu wanted to slip away first.
"Wait."
Feeling his sleeve being grabbed, Lin Yu turned his head and looked at Tang Manman curiously and asked:
"What's up?"
"Let's go to another mall."
Tang Manman said softly. Judging from her nervous look, Lin Yu quickly realized that she was afraid those people would come back to cause trouble.
"Don't worry."
Lin Yu gave a gentle smile and comforted her:
"I know their boss. We have a very good relationship. If they really bring people here, they'll still be the ones in bad luck."
Hearing what Lin Yu said, Tang Manman finally let out a sigh of relief and didn't say anything more.
Looking at Tang Manman's simple dressing, Lin Yu planned to dress her up nicely today.
He took Tang Manman to stroll around the clothing section on the first floor. Lin Yu took a fancy to several nice clothing styles.
After trying them on one by one, Lin Yu finally bought a short white Melange down jacket for Tang Manman.
This color was a bit like the milky pattern on coffee, with a little bit of coffee - brown in the milky - white. It was very flattering on the skin, and Tang Manman looked great in it.
After choosing the down jacket, Lin Yu also paired it with a caramel - colored scarf, a pair of off - white knitted straight - leg pants, and also changed her shoes to a pair of off - white winter shoes.
Looking at Tang Manman, who had suddenly transformed from a cute little country girl into a cute and fashionable girl, Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction and got up to walk to the counter to pay.
"Let me do it."
Just as Lin Yu was walking towards the counter, Tang Manman suddenly quickened her pace and stepped forward to the counter first to pay.
"Hello, ma'am. The total is four thousand three hundred and seventy yuan. Is it cash or scan - to - pay?"
Seeing Tang Manman's hand holding the phone suddenly freeze for a moment, Lin Yu was afraid she would be embarrassed and quickly stepped forward and said:
"Scan - to - pay."
He turned the phone screen to the payment code. After paying the money, Lin Yu led Tang Manman out.
Just as they walked out of the store, Lin Yu felt his sleeve being tugged. He turned his head and saw Tang Manman with a worried look on her face. Lin Yu asked curiously:
"What's wrong?"
Tang Manman frowned slightly and said in a low voice:
"It's so expensive. Let's return it."
Looking at Tang Manman, Lin Yu suddenly said out of the blue:
"There's something on your back. Turn around and let me have a look."
"What?"
Tang Manman obediently turned around.
"Pop!"
Lin Yu yanked off the clothing tag. Looking at Tang Manman, who turned around and found the tag had been removed, with an almost heart - broken expression on her face, Lin Yu bared his teeth and smiled.
"Okay, you can't return it this time. Just wear it obediently."
He threw the tag into the trash can beside. Lin Yu turned his head and asked the dejected Tang Manman:
"Didn't you look at the price tags when you were trying on the clothes just now?"
Tang Manman said aggrievedly:
"I looked at some, but not all of them. The salesgirl was very enthusiastic. She kept helping me change clothes and shoes. I felt a bit embarrassed, so I didn't pay attention to the price later. I didn't expect it to be so expensive."
Recalling the enthusiastic look of that female salesperson, Lin Yu nodded with a smile and comforted her:
"It's okay. We've already bought it. Just wear it."
"A beautiful girl who got a sixty - thousand - yuan scholarship should wear such expensive clothes."
Tang Manman hung her head and still didn't look very happy.
Just when Lin Yu was thinking about how to comfort her again, she suddenly perked up. She stopped looking sad. The corners of her mouth gently curved up. She looked confident, beautiful, and full of youth.
Lin Yu didn't understand how she suddenly changed her mind, but it was always good that she could accept it.
He turned his head to look ahead. Just as Lin Yu was about to take Tang Manman to find a nice restaurant for lunch, he suddenly froze. Looking at Gu Yue walking towards them ahead, Lin Yu vaguely realized something.
He nodded at Gu Yue. Looking at the middle - aged woman beside Gu Yue, who was obviously here to go shopping with Gu Yue, Lin Yu nodded and took the initiative to say hello first:
"Hello, auntie."
Tang Manman also followed and nodded to say hello:
"Hello, auntie."
The middle - aged woman nodded with a kind smile. After a simple exchange, the woman took Gu Yue away. Lin Yu then turned to look at Tang Manman beside him.
Tang Manman blinked her innocent eyes. Lin Yu found it a bit funny but didn't say anything. He took Tang Manman and was going to find a place to eat.
They sat down in a fried - bun shop. After ordering two baskets of fried buns and two bowls of wontons, Lin Yu looked out of the window and silently planned what to do next.
Let's go to the cinema.
I wonder if the Spring Festival movies are on now.
If there are good movies, we can go and watch them later. By the way, I can also get a coupon from Tang Manman.
As for buying New Year goods, that's not urgent.
We'll talk about it when we go back.
We can't go to the movies with big bags and small parcels in our hands. That would be so troublesome.
As Lin Yu was thinking, he suddenly saw several people walking past the window.
Looking at the red - haired guy with two wads of tissues stuffed in his nostrils and that familiar tall guy, Lin Yu was stunned for a moment. Then he raised his hand and tapped on the transparent glass window of the restaurant.
Hearing the sound, the red - haired guy turned his head and looked over. After spotting Lin Yu, his eyes widened. He pointed at Lin Yu inside the window and babbled something. Then he rushed in aggressively with his people.
