Blow

Recruiting new clubs on Saturday.

The night before, Tao Tao did not know where to get Wen Xiao's contact information, saying that the fighting club had successfully registered, and asked Wen Xiao to visit their booth the next day.

The club recruiting activities took place on the only way in and out of the school. In order not to be caught by her, Wen Xiao got up early and took Xia Jue to take the bus.

Fifteen stops, slowly moving from the suburb where the school is located into the city.The scenery along the way was originally farmland and mountains, but gradually turned into high-rise buildings, commercial buildings, and heavy traffic.No matter how excited Xia Jue was, she would still feel sleepy after being jolted in the car for a long time. After sleeping, she felt a strong sense of time travel when she woke up.

"Where are we?" He was dragged out of the car by Wen Xiao in a daze, and looked up at the stop sign, which was the name of a shopping mall.This mall is the most upscale in the county.

Wen Xiao put his hands in his pockets, raised his chin, and pointed to the entrance of the mall behind the bus stop sign.

Shopping?Xia Jue became nervous.He didn't have much money with him.

The two walked into the lobby of the shopping mall, Wen Xiao looked at the shopping guide map, and took Xia Jue directly to the third floor.The floor index is written on the standing sign at the elevator entrance, with five prominent characters on it: Boutique Girls' Clothing.

Below are various fashion women's clothing brand LOGOs, arranged in the pattern of a dress.

Xia Jue was dumbfounded.

Wen Xiao was about to leave, so he quickly grabbed Wen Xiao's clothes.

"... Are you addicted to it?" Wen Xiao turned his head and frowned.

"No," Xia Jue hesitated, "We went wrong, this floor is women's clothing."

Wen Xiao asked, "Are you sure?"

"Of course, it says—" Xia Jue stopped in the middle of speaking.He realized that Wen Xiao was not discussing with him whether this floor sold women's clothing.

Wen Xiao continued to walk forward, and Xia Jue followed like a dream.They began to walk slowly in the mall, passing one women's clothing store after another.

"Whatever you like, you can pick and try it yourself." Wen Xiao said in a normal tone.In fact, he still lowered the volume, and his hands in his pockets were slightly sweaty.

Xia Jue felt that she was still asleep in the car, she was in a trance, unable to speak for a long time.

Wen Xiao stopped: "I went back and looked at your skirt, but I can't wear it anymore. Why, don't you want to buy a new one?"

"I think... I think," Xia Jue blushed gradually, lowered her head, her neck was almost at a ninety-degree angle to her body, "But I used to buy things online, I never went to a mall, and I didn't... Tried."

Wen Xiao said lightly, "Do you want to try?"

Xia Jue bit her lip and nodded, "...um."

Next to the two of them is a women's clothing store with a warm decoration and a somewhat dreamy princess style. As far as the eye can see, it is full of baby blue, baby pink, macaron tones, lace, tulle, and bows.

Wen Xiao recalled a little, and felt that Wen Rushi didn't seem to have worn such clothes, but as far as the store display was concerned, it seemed to poke a certain point in him. He thought it was cute, beautiful, and pleasing to the eye.

"Go in and have a look?" he asked Xia Jue.

Xia Jue looked at the furnishings in the store, and was stunned, hesitating.

Wen Xiao likes this?Xia Jue thought to himself.This, how should I put it... is very...

He was in a complicated mood, but he followed Wen Xiao's wishes and walked in.

A short-haired clerk with an apple face greeted him warmly. When he found out that it was two boys, he didn't show any surprise. He just smiled and asked, "Are you buying it for your girlfriend?"

Xia Jue let out a nervous "uh", not knowing how to explain it.At this moment, Wen Xiao pointed at Xia Jue directly, and said calmly, "Buy it for him."

The short-haired clerk was taken aback.

Xia Jue's face was flushed, she was at a loss for a while, but she still nodded bravely: "Yes—that, I'll buy it."

The short-haired clerk's expression froze for about two seconds, and then he smiled again: "Okay, what style do you want to buy? Shirt? Jacket?"

Wen Xiao said from the side, "A dress."

The clerk paused again, then continued: "Then you can take a look at our new autumn style..." He said and took Xia Jue to a row of hangers marked "NEWARRIVAL".

Xia Jue looked back at Wen Xiao hesitantly, and Wen Xiao said, "Choose it yourself."

Xia Jue had no choice but to swallow her saliva, and looked through the skirts hanging on the hangers by herself.Beautiful is very beautiful, the material is also comfortable, the yarn is soft, and it doesn't feel sticky at all, except that occasionally I see labels with two numbers and four digits.

The sum of the prices of all Xia Jue's dresses is not as high as the figure on this one label.

"Is there a discount for these?" He tentatively whispered, pointing to a pure white dress with a gauze skirt on the lower body and exquisite embroidery on the upper body, like a wedding dress.

The clerk said: "Yes, [-]% off the new style, it's a good deal." I don't know where the deal is.

Xia Jue looked at Wen Xiao.

Wen Xiao thought Xia Jue was asking for advice, so he walked over to have a look, and said, "It's okay."

Xia Jue was embarrassed to say that it was too expensive, so she could only vaguely say, "It's not good."

"Then let's look at other things." Wen Xiao looked around, and was particularly fond of a long skirt with a cross collar on the upper body, lotus color, white gauze lower body, full of flower embroidery.

Xia Jue followed his line of sight, gasped for breath, and really didn't want to visit this store anymore.Seeing that Wen Xiao was still watching, he had no choice but to go over and whisper: "Can you switch to another one?"

Wen Xiao withdrew his gaze and said, "It's up to you."

Xia Jue smiled apologetically at the clerk, and quickly pulled Wen Xiao out.

Only then did Wen Xiao realize that Xia Jue seemed to have no interest in this store at all, so he asked, "Don't you like it?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's pretty," Xia Jue explained awkwardly, "but this...No one would wear it like this usually, and it's too expensive."

Wen Xiao looked back at the store they had just visited, and the clerk who had received them was at the door, smiling at him.

Wen Xiao thought about it carefully, indeed, not only Wen Rushi, but other girls he knew didn't seem to be very good at wearing such skirts, maybe it was too exaggerated?But it's really beautiful.

He looked back again.

Then the two walked into another store, this one was more fashionable, with all kinds of shiny short skirts and chain rivets.

Several shop assistants in this store looked at them and thought they should just hang out and not be too enthusiastic.

Wen Xiao glanced around, but didn't like any of them, lacking interest.Xia Jue picked up a shirt dress, with a white base, a few black stripes, uneven length, and a black belt around the waist, with a price tag of over a thousand.

It's still too expensive for him to accept, but he thinks the style is good, cool, a little handsome, and can be matched with a pair of boots.

——As a result, when he turned around, he saw Wen Xiao's expression of disapproval.

Xia Jue was a little frustrated and asked, "Is it okay?"

Wen Xiao said, "As you like."

Having said that, Xia Jue still felt the dissatisfaction in his tone, so she put down her skirt and walked out of the store.

The two continued to visit several houses.Xia Jue gradually grasped the pattern of Wen Xiao's liking. When Wen Xiao once again set his eyes on a pink gauze dress in a certain brand store, he finally couldn't hold back, and whispered four words: "Straight Male aesthetics."

Wen Xiao heard it and asked, "What?"

Xia Jue quickly changed her words: "It's nothing."

"...I'm not deaf." Wen Xiao pointed to his ears expressionlessly.

Xia Jue said helplessly: "It's really nothing, it just feels like you really like this, this, this..."

He pointed to several, either pink or sky blue, or champagne, with tulle or puff sleeves, and a bow.

Wen Xiao found his words inexplicable.Isn't that what dresses are supposed to be like?How could a long shirt be considered a skirt like the shirt Xia Jue took just now?

He glanced at Xia Jue suspiciously, Xia Jue was very innocent.

In the end, the two walked into a shop with a light and familiar style. The shop is divided into two sides as a whole. One side is dominated by low-saturation colors such as lotus root powder, champagne, nude, gray blue, etc., while the other side is black, dark gray, Navy blue and so on, the clothes are simple in style and well cut.

In a tunic dress, Xia Jue and Wen Xiao's aesthetics reached a certain balance.The color of this skirt is very light, gray-toned pink, the fabric is slightly stiff, and the skirt is slightly puffed up after the belt is put on, so that it will not stick to the body and highlight some awkward shapes.

Xia Jue came out of the fitting room, trembling slightly with nervousness, and took a deep breath.The clerk fastened his belt and tied it into a neat bow.

Seen from behind, he is tall and straight, with a very thin waist.Wen Xiao looked in the mirror, and inside was Xia Jue's beautiful, uncomfortable face. The neckline was open to the collarbone, and the gray tone powder made him fairer, and the neck line was beautiful.

The clerk had another beige strip in his hand: "If it's a performance, on stage..."

That one was too soft, thin, and more expensive.Xia Jue shook her head.

"That's it." Wen Xiao stood up and took out his wallet.

Hearing his decision so quickly, Xia Jue turned around and said hesitantly, "I really want to buy it."

Because he took off his clothes, his ponytail was a little loose, and a few strands of hair swayed slightly with his movements, hanging by his ears.

Wen Xiao glanced at him, took out a stack of banknotes from his wallet and started counting, the cash register was running, and the bill was printed.

Xia Jue looked back at the mirror again, and really liked the new dress.The redness on his face had spread to the tips of his ears.

He walked into the fitting room to change back into the original T-shirt and jeans, and heard the clerk outside asking Wen Xiao one after another: "Are you from some film school? There is a cultural performance recently? Do you want to reverse the role?"

Wen Xiao was a little vague.

The clerk began to ask Wen Xiao when and when the show was, and said he wanted to see it.

Seeing that Xia Jue couldn't make it through, she sped up her movements and said, "There is no show. We are just...Truth or Dare, just for fun."

"Oh," the clerk was still a little disappointed, and waved at them, "Then I wish you an early debut."

Xia Jue and Wen Xiao left together carrying the bags.

The two went to a noodle restaurant outside the shopping mall for lunch. Xia Jue took out the receipt from the shopping bag and saw a shocking number.He put the receipt back, lowered his head to suck on the noodles, thinking about what he had and what he didn't.

He was not willing to wear the shoes given by Rushi last time.He is really far behind Wen Xiao in terms of consumption, and consumption can represent many things.

Xia Jue bit her lip, picked up her phone and swiped the screen.

Then Wen Xiao's phone on the table lit up, reminding him that he had received a WeChat transfer.Wen Xiao saw it, took a sip of the soup, and didn't order it to collect it.

"Did you really look for Huang Xingze?" After swallowing the soup, he said without warning.

"Ah?" Xia Jue didn't react.

Wen Xiao's tone was flat: "Did Huang Xingze really pay me back the 3000 yuan?"

Xia Jue froze for a moment, lowered her head, and said nothing.

Wen Xiao looked at him for a while and said, "Stop thinking about it. Did the teacher ask Bao Ming and Li Zhiwei to talk to you about the compensation for your original dress?"

"...No," Xia Jue shook her head, "Teacher Feng said that I beat them too, so it was evened."

——It's a good one.

An unclear result, Xia Jue's inspection had already been handed in, and now I don't know if the two of them have started writing. Feng Kun's attitude of "upholding justice" at that time was just a superficial effort.

Xu Chengkai said he wanted to find Li Rui, but he didn't know if there was any result.

Xia Jue didn't seem to care anymore, but Wen Xiao couldn't help frowning as he put down his chopsticks.

After that, they went back to Xia Jue's house.Xia Jue carefully put the newly bought clothes into the water, washed them by hand, and turned them over to dry.

The weather is good, the wind blows the skirt, fluttering, flying up and down, just like his heart.

Wen Xiao was playing with his mobile phone on the recliner, and suddenly asked: "Is it not that difficult?"

He was referring to the public purchase of the dress, but did not say so.

But Xia Jue understood.He was looking up at the fluttering skirt, but when he heard it, he turned around and smiled, then nodded.

"Do you still feel ashamed now?" Wen Xiao asked again.

Xia Jue said, "It's even more embarrassing if I can't catch up with you."

He was smiling, the sun falling on his curled eyelashes.

Wen Xiao glanced at him, and continued to stare at the phone calmly. The phone screen remained on the main screen, with nothing but icons.
