My Best Bro Got Bullied by Another Bad Woman Again - Chapter 40
“I don’t need breakfast either, but Miss Liu… you seem a little uneasy…”
“Um…it’s because I’ve never gone shopping with a boy before, and I don’t know what to do…”
Actually, the main reason is that today’s event is essentially an apology. Before this, Liu Nuanyu had gone shopping or traveling with other people, but they were all girls. Even if they were strangers, as long as she was enthusiastic enough, the atmosphere wasn’t too bad.
But today is different. Liu Nuanyu was already a little uneasy because of what Youye Ruixi said last night. In addition, since this date was essentially an apology, she was constantly careful not to displease Sun Du, which led to the current situation.
“There’s no need to worry, Miss Liu,” Sun Du said with a smile. “Just like when you used to go out and have fun, do what you like.”
“But what if you don’t like it?”
“Then just keep going. If you feel you’ve made a mistake, try to make amends. If you feel guilty, just keep going until you’re no longer sad.”
Governor Sun smiled and continued:
“Don’t dwell on mistakes, because there’s always a chance to correct them.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Nuanyu paused for a moment, then smiled.
“Okay!”
Liu Nuanyu regained her spirits and directly took Sun Du’s hand, saying:
“Let’s go get something good to eat. Hmm… what do you like?”
“Whatever you want to eat, I’ll try it too. Maybe we’ll even like the same things?”
“Hmm…that’s true. If we try a few more, maybe they’ll all turn out the same?”
As she spoke, Liu Nuanyu pulled Sun Du to the dessert shop. There were quite a few people there, mostly couples.
“Mr. Sun, do you like ice cream?”
“Of course, I really like desserts. As for the flavors… you can help me choose.”
“good.”
Liu Nuanyu jogged over and returned shortly after, carrying two identical plates of ice cream. Each plate had a layer of cream ice cream topped with three different scoops of ice cream: vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
Sun Du scooped out a spoonful of each ice cream scoop, took a bite, and found it quite delicious. The icy coolness spread throughout his body from his mouth, instantly dispelling the heat he had felt from the sun. The sweetness and coolness spread together, and the refreshing and sweet taste made him feel comfortable.
“Hmm, very good.” Sun Du nodded.
“Hehe, that’s good. I was worried you wouldn’t like it.”
As Liu Nuanyu spoke, she scooped up a spoonful and put it in her mouth, making a “hmm” sound. Although her features shrank due to the sudden coolness, it was clear that she was very happy, especially after her features relaxed again, her vitality and joy became even stronger.
Liu Nuanyu: “Delicious!”
Sun Du: “How novel. I thought that the diet of magical girls like you would be strictly controlled.”
Liu Nuanyu: “That’s right, especially since my family demands that I act like a pampered young lady… It’s too tiring. We can only secretly experience this kind of thing at times like this.”
“Ha, so today, I also have to take some responsibility for your ‘violation’?”
“Yes, but you’ll take responsibility, right?”
“Of course, but do you think these street foods taste better than the high-end foods that are usually regulated?”
“No, although the rules are strict, the food provided by the academy and home is generally much better in terms of taste, texture and appearance. But it feels novel to eat things that you can’t eat yourself, especially something like this. After eating strawberry ice cream a thousand times, eating a strawberry ice cream that is clearly strawberry ice cream but feels slightly different from the ones I’ve had before. I find it very novel.”
“Yeah, it’s like drinking Coke. Once you’ve drunk a lot of Coke, you’ll know what the characteristics of each brand are. You can tell the difference just by drinking it, without even looking at it.”
The ice cream was delicious, and the two of them enjoyed it. Liu Nuanyu was no longer as uneasy as before.
Sun Du: “So, in the past, what would be the next step?”
Liu Nuanyu: “Look at the nice clothes, and buy any you like.”
Sun Du: “Buying clothes… Indeed, it’s better to buy clothes in person offline, although a young lady like you should be able to have them custom-made.”
“But I can’t feel that real happiness, and the clothes my family made for me… aren’t the styles I like.”
“What do you like?”
“Yes, Mr. Sun can tell, right?”
“Hmm…indeed…”
Just like what happened in the office yesterday… But thankfully, this girl probably hasn’t realized it yet, or maybe she’s already accepted it calmly?
“Mr. Sun, would you like a few new outfits as well?”
“Although I’m not very particular about clothing… I might as well give it a try.”
“Let’s go then!”
Liu Nuanyu was full of energy and led Sun Du to a clothing store she recognized.
Upon entering the store, unlike ice cream shops, there were far fewer customers, probably due to the prices.
The waitress, with her sharp eyes, immediately recognized that Liu Nuanyu was no ordinary person. She approached with a smile and asked:
“Are you two a couple? Would you like me to introduce you to the most popular couple outfits right now?”
“Love…couple?”
Liu Nuanyu was startled, her mind went blank for a moment, her face flushed and her heart pounded, but Governor Sun remained calm and said:
“No, we are not a couple.”
Liu Nuanyu: “Ah…”
Sun Du: “What’s wrong?”
Liu Nuanyu: “No, it’s nothing…”
The waiter next to them noticed that the girl seemed a little unhappy after hearing the boy’s denial, which clearly indicated that she had a crush on him, even though the man looked quite ordinary… so he decided to help the girl out.
“Oh, I see. I misunderstood. So, who are you two…?”
Liu Nuanyu (pointing at Sun Du): “Please get him some suitable clothes first, the most handsome ones!”
“Okay, sir, what style would you like?”
Sun Du: “Well… I don’t really have any particular favorites…”
“Oh, I see. Then let me pick out a few for you.”
The waitress picked out a few dark suits and trench coats from the side. She just felt that although this gentleman looked very kind, he was inexplicably suited to black. Especially when she saw Sun Du wearing a black, ordinary overcoat, she felt a strange sense of oppression and majesty. He looked very handsome.
“Sir, how are these?”
“Hmm, very good.”
Sun Du nodded in satisfaction.
“Please change into it then. Do you need any help?”
“No need.”
Sun Du changed into a black suit, and his aura instantly improved. Liu Nuanyu and the waiter next to him were both impressed. This sense of authority was… breathtaking, yet captivating. Especially Liu Nuanyu, who seemed to have glimpsed Sun Du’s true, hidden self.
