"Buzz buzz buzz..."
"Huh?"
Watching the "harmonious" scene, Li Liang prepared to run away at any moment, but just then he suddenly felt his phone vibrating in his pocket.
He took it out and saw that it was a private message from Song Junling.
The message was very clear, with only a few short words:
"Find a chance to come out alone, remember to bring your clothes."
Bring clothes??
Seeing this message, Li Liang suddenly lowered his head, only to realize that he was still carrying a bag of tops and pants that the girls had taken off when changing into Hanfu.
As for coats and the like, they were still wearing them, otherwise wouldn't it be cold to only wear a Hanfu?
"Damn it!"
People sometimes overlook things in their hands or right in front of them, searching for a donkey while riding one, as the saying goes, 'the darkest place is under the lamp'.
Li Liang was like this at the moment, walking for so long without realizing that he had brought their clothes out with him.
"OK, I got it."
He quickly replied to the message and quietly put his phone back in his pocket.
However, all of this fell into Bai Shutong's eyes, and a hard to describe emotion flashed across her eyes, no one knew what she was thinking.
Mom and Dad were still arguing about what had just happened, if Bai Shutong hadn't stepped in to mediate, these two could have continued arguing.
Mainly because Mom had already started taking off her shoes, preparing to use her 'weapon of schooling'.
Seeing the farce end, Li Liang appropriately offered a suggestion: "How about... we find a place to eat?"
He added: "Shu Tong hasn't eaten dinner yet."
"What!?"
Sure enough, as soon as she heard that Bai Shutong hadn't eaten, Mom immediately locked onto her target and headed straight outside.
However, Li Liang secretly glanced at the few people lurking in the distance behind him, frowning tightly.
Inside this Ice and Snow World, it was normal to see people wearing Hanfu, but if these people continued to follow them outside, it would be difficult to guarantee that they wouldn't be exposed!
Thinking of this, he quickly grabbed Mom's arm and said with a smile: "Mom, your son wants to try the ice house hot pot inside, can we?"
Dad immediately became interested upon hearing this, filled with curiosity about something he had never tried before, and echoed: "Yeah, wife, I want to try it too!"
"?"
Mom got goosebumps all over her body from this scene, spat and scolded: "Can you two not be so disgusting? And what's so good about eating in ice? It's not like we haven't experienced it before."
"......"
She really hit where it hurts.
When Li Liang was little, he forgot exactly why, but Mom and Dad quarreled, and Dad was punished to stand outside during dinner time.
It happened to be winter, and Li Liang ran to the door holding his rice bowl, teasing Old Li with a cheeky smile, which made Old Li so angry that he reported him on the spot, and in the end, the two of them ate outside holding their rice bowls together...
Recalling this memory, Li Liang's mouth twitched, and he could only look at Bai Shutong with pleading eyes.
And the understanding Bai Shutong did not disappoint him, after a playful smile, she grabbed Mom's other arm and said: "Mom, I actually want to try it too."
Mom was stunned when she heard this, looked at her, then looked at Li Liang, and immediately understood what was going on, she said with a smile: "Oh, you two! Then let's go!"
"Hehe..."
Li Liang felt speechless, how could his and Old Li's two votes not work, while Bai Shutong's words were so effective?
He turned his head and happened to meet Old Li's extremely resentful little eyes, and couldn't help but laugh, those eyes seemed to be saying: "Your wife!"
.........
The group came to the ice house hot pot, and were told that they had to wait for a number. If Bai Shutong hadn't said that she really wanted to eat it and not because of Li Liang, Mom would have probably taken the lead and left.
After waiting for half an hour, they finally got a seat, and Li Liang and the others finally got their wish and entered the house.
"You have to treat us today, son!"
As soon as he entered the house, Old Li grabbed a seat and said to Li Liang.
"What??"
"What 'what', if your mom and I didn't come, would you have your daughter pay for dinner?"
Li Liang was caught off guard by this counter-logic.
Seeing Li Liang's appearance, Mom frowned slightly and asked faintly: "Could it be that you don't have money? Where's the money I gave you before??"
She thought that Li Liang had taken the money to mess around, and the playful look on her face slowly faded.
"No, what are you thinking, Mom!"
Li Liang's mouth twitched, he seemed to have said nothing just now, right?
Why are you two so dramatic!
"I didn't say anything, I'm treating today, eat as much as you want!"
"That's more like it."
Soon the waiter came, and because of Bai Shutong's physical condition, Li Liang specially ordered a clear soup pot.
Old Li was a little dissatisfied, and asked: "Why did you order a clear soup pot, kid? The place isn't big to begin with!"
Li Liang was stunned when he heard this, looked at Mom, then looked at Bai Shutong, and finally smiled awkwardly at Mom.
Seeing this situation, Mom instantly understood, whispered a few words in Bai Shutong's ear, and after receiving a positive reply, she hit Old Li's head with her chopsticks and scolded: "Just eat yours!"
Old Li was stunned by the hit and obediently shut his mouth.
Li Liang couldn't help but smile, and casually put the bag of clothes on the empty seat, which caught Mom's attention.
She grabbed it and prepared to check it, but it was too late when Li Liang wanted to stop her.
"Hey, don't!"
"Hmm?"
Mom gently opened the bag, and couldn't help but smile when she saw the brand-name clothes inside, praising: "Not bad, you're buying brand names for Tong Tong, that's good."
"Heh... hehe..."
Li Liang was a little sweaty when he heard this, and echoed with a nod: "Haha, yeah, how could I buy bad things for my woman?"
"Tch, you're so full of yourself after a couple of compliments."
Mom smiled and put the clothes back, not looking at them anymore.
But when Bai Shutong heard Li Liang's words, her whole body trembled, although she knew the words were fake, but...
She took it seriously!!
The strange color in her eyes became even more intense.
Outside the ice house.
Bai Yaya was being forcibly dragged by two people, just like subduing a wild boar that had broken free.
"Let me in! I want to eat ice house hot pot!!"
Bai Yaya's eyes were red, staring intently at the backs of the few people inside, drooling.
Song Junyao tried her best to lower her voice and persuade: "Don't be impulsive, Yaya, I'll treat you later!!"
"No! I want to eat now!!!"
The reason she was resisting so much was half because she was really craving it, and the other half was because Li Liang was eating while she was watching, she couldn't stand it.
Inside the house.
Li Liang saw that it was about time, stood up and took the clothes to go outside, but was stopped by Mom after only two steps.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Li Liang was stunned, shook the bag in his hand and said: "Ah, I suddenly remembered that there are a few pieces of clothes that don't fit Bai Shutong, I want to go exchange them."
Mom frowned tightly when she heard this, sensed that something was fishy, and said: "Didn't you try on the clothes before buying them? And we're eating now, can't you wait a little longer?"
Li Liang was a little at a loss when he heard this, and forcibly explained: "I'm just afraid the store will close in a while, and it did feel good when I bought them, but later Shu Tong said that she felt two of them didn't fit."
This was the most normal reason he could think of, and at the same time he looked at Bai Shutong with pleading eyes.
Mom also looked at Bai Shutong and asked: "Is that right, Tong Tong?"
He originally thought that Bai Shutong would cooperate with him as usual, but this time she didn't.
Bai Shutong's lips curled into an imperceptible arc, and she shook her head and said: "Ah? No, I think they all fit pretty well..."
