Little Devil's Deadly Move 2 (Three-in-One, Gifts Appreciated, Big Boss)

In the photograph, a beautiful girl was smiling brightly as she held onto the arm of a handsome young man.

Lu Xuexue opened her mouth slightly, her mind buzzing like a swarm of bees had taken flight inside her head.

The people in the photo were none other than Brother Gu and Shu Ning, her senior!

And that radiant smile could only belong to Shu Ning—there was no way it could be Shu He.

But... when did this happen?

Why was Shu Ning able to hold onto Brother Gu so intimately?

If their relationship had already progressed to this point, why were they acting like ordinary siblings today?

Had they noticed that she and Manman were following them?

Or maybe...

It didn’t make sense...

Her head itched.

Lu Xuexue racked her brains, feeling as though the sky had fallen.

She pursed her lips and looked at the photo again.

Then she noticed that Gu Luo didn’t seem genuinely willing to take the photo—he was just playing along.

For instance, his smile didn’t carry much joy; though his lips were curved, his eyes seemed distant.

So, perhaps they weren’t in that kind of romantic relationship yet.

It was more likely that Shu Ning was using her status as his "sister" to get closer to Brother Gu.

And maybe Brother Gu had gently rejected her, which was why Shu Ning hadn’t held his arm today.

Yes, that had to be it.

Shu Ning was trying to take advantage of her proximity to get ahead!

No, absolutely not!

The thought made Lu Xuexue’s chest tighten. No matter what, she wanted to be with Brother Gu—she wanted to be her best friend’s sister-in-law.

So, it was time to take action.

No more delays.

Shu Ning had already made her move; she had to catch up.

Right now, she didn’t like anyone except Brother Gu.

"Your grapefruit yuyuan is ready!"

The clerk’s cheerful voice rang out.

Lu Xuexue exhaled softly, then walked over to pick up her drink from the counter.

But just as she was about to leave, a rather good-looking boy blocked her path.

"Um, can I—"

"No."

Before he could even finish, Lu Xuexue cut him off with two sharp words, then sidestepped him and strode out of the store.

Normally, she might have been more polite.

But today, this unlucky guy had just walked straight into the line of fire.

......

Lu Xuexue carried her drink back to the intersection where she had parted ways with Gu Ximan earlier.

But Gu Ximan wasn’t there anymore.

Brother Gu and the others must have gone to another store, and Little Man had followed them.

Thinking this, she immediately sent Gu Ximan a message.

[Lu Xuexue: Manman, where are you now?]

It took a while before Gu Ximan replied.

[Gu Ximan: I’m at the small park nearby. (Location)]

[Lu Xuexue: Got it, I’m on my way.]

Lu Xuexue put away her phone and hurried toward the park.

There, she found Gu Ximan sitting on a bench, her expression unreadable.

"Manman, what’s wrong?" Lu Xuexue quickly sat down beside her.

"I... I’m fine..." Gu Ximan forced a smile.

Rewind to a few minutes earlier.

After Gu Luo and the others had finished picking out clothes for Gu Ximan, they were about to leave when Luo Shuning suddenly said, "I still need to buy some more clothes. Since we’re here, I might as well get something for Shu He and Shuling too. Come with me."

"It’s the store across the street—Sweet Lady."

"Brother can just wait for me in the lounge area."

"......"

A few question marks popped up in Gu Luo’s mind.

Seriously?

Was she trying to push him off a cliff?

There was no way he could let Luo Shuning go in there!

Just yesterday, Luo Shuhe had dragged him into the fitting room.

When they came out, several clerks had given them knowing smiles.

The meaning behind those smiles was clear—ah, young love, so impatient.

But what excuse could he use this time?

This wasn’t like buying a suit—he couldn’t use the "I want to come back with you later" line.

What to do... what to do...

Gu Luo’s scalp prickled with dread.

He was starting to think this was all part of the little devil’s plan.

After all, who knew the little angel better than the little devil?

She had blocked off every possible escape route.

Was this what it felt like to spar with a master?

One misstep, and it was a plunge into the abyss.

Sigh...

At this point, there was only one option left—self-destruct.

Bracing himself against the crushing embarrassment, Gu Luo awkwardly said, "Shu Ning, actually... there’s something I want to tell you..."

"What is it?" Luo Shuning blinked her big, innocent eyes.

"Ahem... Well, earlier while we were shopping, I saw a really pretty piece of lingerie that I thought would suit you..."

"So... would you let me buy it for you? As a thank-you for all the clothes..."

Ah, he’d finally said it.

The sheer mortification of sounding like a total creep made him want to dig a hole and disappear.

Ha... haha... buying lingerie... haha...

First "that," now this.

Wasn’t this the definition of a pervert?

Ah... haha... pervert... haha...

At this point, his mind had completely short-circuited.

Meanwhile, Luo Shuning’s flawless, fair cheeks instantly flushed pink.

She lowered her head slightly, her slender fingers fiddling with the strands of hair near her ear. After a long pause, she finally stammered,

"If it’s you... then... it’s okay..."

Then, lifting a tiny fist, she added in a soft, sweet voice,

"But if you pick something ugly, I’ll punch you, Brother! And it’ll hurt!~"

"Thump."

"Thump."

"Thump."

Seeing Luo Shuning’s unbearably adorable, bashful expression, Gu Luo’s heartbeat sped up uncontrollably—she was going to be the death of him.

How could there be such a gentle, sweet little angel in the world?

And more importantly, Luo Shuning had actually agreed.

What did that mean?

The little angel didn’t mind him getting closer.

This was nothing short of mutual affection.

"Then let’s go." Gu Luo’s face burned as well.

Even though they were just shopping for clothes again, the feeling was completely different.

With the little devil, it was mostly awkwardness and tension—but with the little angel, it was a flutter deep in his heart.

And so, relying on memory, Gu Luo led Luo Shuning to another clothing store.

The moment they stepped inside, a clerk immediately approached them.

"Welcome! How may I assist you two today? We’re currently running a promotion—"

After the clerk finished her scripted spiel, Luo Shuning didn’t speak. Instead, she lowered her head shyly and glanced at Gu Luo.

"Ahem... over there."

Clearing his throat, Gu Luo guided them toward a display near the window.

This was the one he had picked out with just a quick glance at the entrance.

It was a pure white garment with a contrasting floral pattern of petals and stamens—simple yet elegant.

"Such great taste, young man," the shop assistant immediately picked up the bra and explained, "This bunny-cup lingerie is made of latex cotton, so it’s incredibly soft, lightweight, and breathable."

After a pause, she added with a smile, "Plus, it has a memory underwire, making it the perfect choice for a well-endowed young lady like her."

"It really is nice," Luo Shuning clearly liked it too.

Maintaining her professional smile, the assistant asked, "And what size does the young lady wear?"

"75C."

Gu Luo blurted it out without thinking, then his expression instantly changed.

"Got it. I’ll fetch it from the stockroom—feel free to browse around in the meantime," the assistant said with a polite smile before walking away.

At that moment, Luo Shuning’s face turned even redder.

She stared at Gu Luo, speechless for a long while.

Her heart was a mess of embarrassment and shock.

How did Gu Luo know her bra size?

Could he tell just by looking?

Had he been… observing her while they cooked together?

Ugh…

This was so mortifying…

The more she thought about it, the more flustered she became, her ears burning crimson.

"Shuning… Let me explain…" Gu Luo wanted to cry—he could’ve kicked himself.

There was no way to talk his way out of this.

Should he admit that he’d secretly checked her size because he wanted to buy her lingerie?

"It’s fine… No need to explain… I get it…"

But as she spoke, Luo Shuning’s voice grew quieter until it was almost inaudible.

What exactly did she "get"?

He was doomed.

Completely doomed.

As a devout leg man, he was now undoubtedly branded a boob guy in his little angel’s mind.

Before long, the shop assistant returned with the lingerie in hand.

"Wait for me in the lounge area…"

Luo Shuning grabbed the bra and practically fled to the fitting room.

"……"

Seeing this, Gu Luo could only sigh helplessly.

Sitting down in the lounge, he racked his brain for a way to explain himself to Luo Shuning.

But nothing came to mind.

Any excuse felt unnecessary—the more he tried, the guiltier he’d seem.

After what felt like forever, his phone buzzed.

Gu Luo opened it to find a message from Luo Shuning.

[Luo Shuning: (Photo) (?′ω`?)]

It was a top-down shot of the pure white lingerie.

In the photo, the curves of the bra were perfectly accentuated.

Very accentuated.

Gu Luo’s eyes widened as he opened it.

Without thinking, he long-pressed to save the image, then zoomed in.

He couldn’t help but marvel—his little angel really didn’t hold back when sending photos.

What he didn’t notice, however, was that Luo Shuning was standing right behind him, watching his every move.
