Chapter 24 Discussion on Slenderness
In the past, Mu Xiu didn’t like to visit supermarkets, and now he still doesn’t like it very much.
Although the first impression the nearby supermarket gave him was that it was very clean and tidy, and quiet, not only without noisy sounds, but even naughty children seemed to be without, which surprised him a little.
At the entrance of the supermarket, strollers and carriages are neatly placed, as well as carts with baby chairs, which should be for the convenience of mothers taking care of their babies. However, whether it is Mu Xiu or Gui Daisy, there is no sign of dizziness in their heads, so they just took a carriage and walked into the supermarket.
"After that being said, what exactly are you following you for?"
The pink-haired girl seemed a little unnatural at this moment. She paid attention to the customers around her and found that there was no strange look, and then felt much more at ease. But even so, she subconsciously distanced herself from Mu Xiu and complained.
But it was not unreasonable for her to say this, because Mu Xiu seemed to have come not for shopping at all, but simply followed her. This made Gui Daisy subconsciously feel a little panicked-
That's right, if she was interested in joking before, she is really a little panicked now... the other party is not really interested in her, right? Isn't this approach very obvious? But how should she reject him?
If the boy knew that Gui Daisy not only misunderstood her meaning, but also had his first reaction to it, he would definitely be a big blow...
What a joke! It won't be good or not.
He is a firm black long direct control, and there is no fool in this world who can take it for granted. After just a few days of knowing a girl, the other party must have the possibility of accepting him? I'm afraid this is because he is shameless and arrogant, and he is so arrogant that he is narcissistic...
So Mu Xiu didn't care much about Gui Daisy's random thoughts. Of course, he just didn't explain.
"Oh, it's just to help you, no thanks." He replied casually.
Is it to help me? However, Gui Daisy didn't appreciate it very much. She raised her eyebrows, looked at the basket she was holding in her hands, and then looked at Mu Xiu, who was empty-handed. Although she didn't say anything, the meaning was self-evident.
"Well, okay, I'll carry it for you."
"Hmph, no need...hey, wait, hey! You guy..."
Mu Xiu didn't care, but snatched the basket from the girl's hand directly. Gui Daisy looked at him angrily for a while, and finally turned around and continued to walk forward. However, this was not a real conflict, so she soon calmed down and ignored it. Instead, she began to search for her own target.
The girl seems to be familiar with things like shopping in supermarkets, but she is better off being very skilled.
The only thing she was worried about was just a global problem like "what to eat today".
The fresh food area did not taste any. The fish was placed neatly in the freezer, and the freshly baked tempura was floating in the air. The tanned daisy seemed to be intriguing. While constantly choosing the ingredients they needed, comparing and screening, he kept explaining to Mu Xiu, who seemed to be completely confused about the whole story.
She is a smart girl and naturally knows the differences in eating habits between the two countries. It is normal for the other party to not know something.
Mu Xiu responded from time to time, without showing any impatientness, and even occasionally asked for a few questions to speak actively, so Gui Daisy didn't feel any problems, but became happier as she spoke. Fortunately, it was still morning, and no one came to the supermarket earlier than them, but the few people looked at the pair of high school students and their faces were still a little strange.
But it was obvious that neither of them noticed such a problem.
Mu Xiu was not idle either, but took a dozen mineral water, because although he didn't care about the effects of the cold and heat of the beverage on his body, he was not used to drinking tap water directly. Although he often saw advertisements from the Waterway Bureau, which promoted that the tap water in District 11 was strictly controlled and its standards were much higher than mineral water, but that psychological discomfort could not be easily eliminated.
Gui Daisy was not surprised by this. She said that although the tap water in District 11 can be completely drunk directly, in fact, people in District 11 rarely drink tap water directly, and about 40% of them will do so. People in other countries may have impression deviations because they are not familiar with it. Most people choose to install water purifiers, buy mineral water, or boil tap water again.
but……
Seeing Mu Xiu's expression naturally lifting up a dozen mineral water. With the things she had purchased one after another before, the weight of the basket had long been somewhat subtle. But he still had no feeling at all. He held the basket with one hand and pushed it slightly outward, as if he did not intend to let the basket carry his body and affect his movements.
Most people may not know what this means, but Gui Daisy knows that it is very laborious, so they can't help but look at Mu Xiu more.
This means that not only has great strength, but also has excellent endurance.
However, no matter how you look at it, this body cannot be considered strong on the surface, and it is even more suitable for slenderness. It is like a squatting at home all day long when facing the computer, so that the body aging is a bit too serious. But what is unscientific is that the physical strength of this worm is a bit too damaging to people...
"The fruits and vegetables here are actually calculated based on a single price?!"
After finally wandering around the supermarket, the girl finally planned to go back, while Mu Xiu followed her with a basket with a conscientious manner, as if she was a housekeeper. However, Mu Xiu's attention was subtle and deviated from it again. He looked at a counter next to him and saw that many vegetables, fruits and melons were washed clean and put in transparent packaging bags.
He subconsciously glanced at the price, and then suddenly pulled the corner of his mouth.
Gui Daisy glanced at him strangely, and then replied as expected: "Yes, what can I do if I don't sell it alone? Are you selling it by pound?"
Mu Xiu nodded for granted: "Yes!"
“…”
“…”
At this moment, both of them deeply understood what cultural differences meant.
...
...
When he arrived at the counter, Gui Daishu said that he would pay the bill himself, but Mu Xiu did not argue with her about this matter. He just looked at her deeply with a strange look, then stood next to her with his arms in his arms.
The girl couldn't understand what he was doing for a moment, but at least she could be sure that the other party seemed to be not interested in her. This made her subconsciously relieved, but she couldn't help feeling a little angry.
When the accounts were settled and they needed to pay, Gui Daisy was stunned.
Maybe it was because she changed her previous afternoon exercise to morning jogging, or the first day of the holiday, she didn't take all aspects into consideration, or it should be said that she did not count her habits in it - she didn't bring her wallet and didn't have a credit card on her. The only ones were a few banknotes with relatively small denominations. If she bought some snacks, drinks, or took public transportation, there was no problem, but now it was impossible to pay for such a shopping.
She was so careless that she completely ignored this matter. Even when she was buying drinks at the vending machine in the park, she didn't notice it. It was so natural. It seemed that she had never thought about buying ingredients at the time. The two things were not put together, which led to such obvious problems being ignored by her...
Wait, if that happens, wouldn’t the guy behind me have known it a long time ago?!
The cashier looked at the girl standing there and found that the other party had not moved for a long time. He thought that the voice was too small just now, and the girl in front of him did not hear it, so he coughed twice and repeated the total price clearly.
The frozen Gui Daisy's body trembled slightly.
Mu Xiu, who was beside him, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and also coughed lightly, saying in a calm tone: "I'll do it!"
After paying the money, Gui Daisy lowered her head without saying a word, picked up a full shopping bag, and then escaped from the supermarket without looking back.
"Welcome again--" The cashier looked at the girl's pink back a little strangely. Although she couldn't figure out what was going on, she still greeted him politely, but the girl seemed to be walking faster.
Mu Xiu was haha, lifted another shopping bag and followed quickly.
Before, when she was in the old school building, she dragged the girl in front of her all the way, and today the retribution finally came back. Mu Xiu followed Gui Daisy and walked quickly. The girl in front lowered her head and said nothing, until she returned to the betrayal dog park that her steps slowly slowed down.
"Student Mu Xiu, you... have known it a long time ago?"
Gui Daisy didn't look back, but seemed to be drooping her shoulders in a loss, but if she looked from the front, she would find that her expression was hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly. Moreover, her shoulders were also trembling slightly. In this case, if she was not extremely happy, she would be extremely angry because it was all physical manifestations caused by excessive emotional fluctuations...
Although Mu Xiu was not aware of such a thing and was unable to see the girl's expression from the front, he was not a fool either.
After all, no matter whether it was the change in the title or the girl's other slender palm clenched into a fist, he understood what the other party was in now. So first he took a defensive posture and said in a very natural tone:
"Oh, didn't you say that your clothes fit very well... Isn't this a reminder?"
"What kind of reminder is this?" The girl's tone not only showed a trace of disbelief, but also trembled slightly, just like her body.
"It's so. Because it fits so well, I didn't see any extra lines on you. This means you didn't bring your wallet or cell phone at all. In addition, you took out the banknotes directly from the beverage machine instead of taking them out of your wallet, so I even concluded that you only had a small amount of change on your body. As for credit cards, it was like I didn't feel the radio waves emitted by your phone, and there was no magnetic force emitted by the magnetic stripes..."
"What an amazing reasoning."
Gui Daisy slowly turned around, her brows pounding, and her eyes were filled with dangerous light, "But why didn't you remind me directly in person."
"Because... it seems very interesting!" The young man showed a serious expression and said honestly.
With a "pop", it was the sound of a heavy shopping bag falling to the ground.
"Student Mu Xiu! I think you should learn what slimness means!!"
"Hey, slender? How to learn this...wait! This is clearly a joint skill! Let go, let go—!!"
It turns out that humans are creatures that will not learn from their lessons, and they are repeating similar tragedies.
...

“Hu…hu…”
Isaiyama Huangquan was holding the wall of the building at the corner of the street, gasping for a hurry. She was still wearing a black sailor's short skirt and school uniform, but the long cloth package was still held in her hand. She seemed to have just passed a rapid sprint, as if she was rushing all the way at a speed of 100 meters.
"Of course, I'm not late at all? That's great, Kagura hasn't come yet..."
She looked around and found that there were few pedestrians nearby, and the most important thing was that there was no one. Because Kagura never was late, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and had time to stop and rest. She took out her cell phone from her skirt pocket and took a look, and found that her sprint was indeed very effective. At least, the date that was originally a late one, but now she has been around for more than ten minutes and nearly twenty minutes.
Chapter completed!
