Chapter 1774

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t say a word, allowing Baili Xia to pull him along.

Just as they were about to enter another shop, Baili Xia suddenly stopped.

Strangely, it felt…

not quite right.

Why did she hold Uncle’s hand as soon as she saw him?

This feeling, so familiar, it’s become like a habit.

As if all along, she’s been doing just that.

But, this is Uncle, not Brother, isn’t this…

somewhat inappropriate?

She lowered her eyes to think, her little face turning slightly red as she immediately wanted to let go of Mu Xiaojiu’s hand.

Yet, at the moment Baili Xia loosened her grip, Mu Xiaojiu’s fingers tightened, holding her hand firmly.

This gesture made her heart tremble involuntarily, she raised her eyes to look at Mu Xiaojiu, questioning him with her gaze.

Mu Xiaojiu said casually, “Don’t let go, too many people around, I’m afraid I’ll lose you.”

Baili Xia initially didn’t feel embarrassed, probably because her skin was too thick.

Now with Uncle saying this, she was even less able to refuse.

Holding his hand became a matter of course.

Uncle just sees her as a junior, similar to Brother, he is very affectionate to them all.

Moreover, Uncle is also injured, if the two of them really got separated, she would also worry about him.

She relaxed, no longer troubled, holding Mu Xiaojiu’s hand openly as they continued shopping.

“Uncle, the clothes from that brand over there are nice, let’s go have a look.”

Also, there’s Brother, perhaps she could buy him a set too.

Anyway, Uncle and Brother have similar builds, just right to let Uncle be the model to try the clothes.

What she didn’t realize is, Mu Xiaojiu’s clothes are all custom-made, likely costing tens of thousands and still not able to buy a set.

But Mu Xiaojiu didn’t refuse, the girl wanted to pick clothes for him, he was happy to accept.

The two walked into the brand store.

Seeing Baili Xia, the shopping assistant wasn’t particularly enthusiastic.

The clothes here start at several thousand, this little girl, though her identity is unclear, is evidently too young.

However, upon clearly seeing Mu Xiaojiu walking behind her.

Even if his appearance is not obvious, his noble demeanor was simply eye-catching.

The shopping assistant’s attitude instantly became flattering.

She felt oddly that this somewhat oddly dressed person could presumably wave his hand and buy out all the clothes in this shop.

Baili Xia was quite helpless, comparing oneself to others can be infuriating, if she came alone, the people probably wouldn’t spare her a second glance.

But…

oh well, it’s for Uncle anyway.

“Uncle, how about this one?”

Baili Xia pointed at a dark gray suit, inquiring.

Mu Xiaojiu followed her finger to look over, it was just a suit that, to him, was as ordinary as can be.

In ordinary times, he definitely wouldn’t wear it.

But now, the corners of his lips held a barely perceptible smile.

The girl picking out clothes for him, inexplicably, brought a feeling of happiness that overflowed in his heart.

“Looks pretty good.” Looking back at the shopping assistant beside him, he said, “Wrap it up.”

Wrap it up?

The shopping assistant was immediately dumbfounded.

This suit costs tens of thousands, he…

didn’t even take a proper look, and actually just asked to wrap it up?

Before the shopping assistant could recover from the shock, Baili Xia immediately exclaimed, “Wrap what?

Haven’t even tried it yet.”

She reached out to nudge Mu Xiaojiu gently scolding, “The clothes haven’t been tried on, how would you know if they fit?”

“Please help me get a size 190 to try, thank you.” She turned to look at the shopping assistant.

The shopping assistant finally came to her senses, quickly nodded, and turned to find the clothes.
