CH 15

“Beauty, your Hanfu looks so pretty, where did you buy it?” ( TL: Hanfu is traditional Chinese clothing, cultivator robes look like Hanfu)

At the clothing store, before Qiu Wuji even started shopping, the saleswomen surrounded and asked her, the envy in their eyes almost overflowing.

Qiu Wuji looked to Chu Ge for help. Why are they calling her “beauty”? It feels so frivolous.

Chu Ge stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at the ceiling.

He told her it would be like this. What’s the point of asking where she bought this dress from?  These guys know more about buying and selling anyways. Do they really think that just wearing this will make them beautiful?

A person who is already beautiful will look good in anything. These guys might end up looking like poorly dressed extras in these clothes.

“Sir, your girlfriend is really beautiful.”

Qiu Wuji: “???”

Chu Ge looked up at the sky. “Am I not handsome?”

Saleswoman: “…Um, a good match.”

Qiu Wuji: “???”

No matter how much you flatter us, I can’t afford the expensive ones anyway. Chu Ge ignored the saleswoman’s expectant gaze and pointed to the cheapest rack. “What about this one?”

The saleswoman sneered secretly. How can such a stingy person end up with such a beautiful woman? Life is really unfair.

Qiu Wuji took a look at the clothes Chu Ge pointed to.

A white short-sleeved blouse for women and a black short skirt. She had seen people wearing this on the street before, and in fact, the saleswoman was wearing something similar now. Overall, it looks quite serious and decent, at least more formal than those little tank tops.

In Chu Ge’s mind, this is what a female white-collar worker looks like. Of course, an OL outfit can also be long pants, but the reason for choosing a short skirt… well, he can’t tell her.

Anyway, she doesn’t understand, and she probably thinks this is more formal than other options.

Sure enough, Qiu Wuji hesitated for a moment but still accepted the outfit and went to the fitting room with it.

It seems like her arms and legs will be exposed… but when she looks around, it seems like everyone dresses like this. It’s not that big a deal… just blend in with the world…

“Sir, why is your girlfriend blushing when she’s holding the clothes? She’s so cute.”

The saleswoman’s voice and Chu Ge’s suppressed laughter could be heard from outside the fitting room, and Qiu Wuji blushed and leaned against the wall, lost in thought.

What’s with that? What does “girlfriend” even mean? Female friend? But her intuition tells her that it’s not quite right… How could a female friend use the word “good match”? Chu Ge’s expression doesn’t seem right either!

It’s like a little fox who successfully stole food…

“What kind of creator god is this? Why is our world’s creator god so pathetic?

Qiu Wuji pouted her lips, and her body slowly emitted smoke and haze.

Her moon-white warrior robe slowly disappeared, revealing a flawless body in the smoke.

The clothes were illusions, strictly speaking, she wasn’t wearing anything… Of course, her illusions were even stronger than the real thing. Ordinary clothes could be seen through, but her illusions were something that even cultivators couldn’t see through. So illusion wasn’t shameful, wearing things that expose the arms and legs is what’s shameful.

Even if it was shameful, she still had to wear it. Isn’t this the first step to integrating into the world?

Qiu Wuji took a deep breath and slowly put on her new clothes.

There was a mirror in the changing room. Looking in the mirror, the person in the mirror had a pink face, with lips lightly bitten, and an expression of shyness and annoyance in her eyes. She didn’t even know where to put her hands and feet.

She turned her head forcefully and pushed the door open with gritted teeth.

Then she saw Chu Ge’s shining eyes, like they had a light in them.

Chu Ge was really stunned. He didn’t expect that this immortal female sect master could look so beautiful even in an OL outfit. It turns out that no matter how you dress, a beautiful person is still beautiful.

This outfit may be cheap, but it was tasteful, intellectual, and had a hidden temperament. The eyes still carried a hint of anger and warning, making it even more appealing. She looked like a stunning ice queen CEO described in some novel standing here.

And then…

Chu Ge’s gaze fell on her chest.

This thin summer shirt was very breathable, and the see-through performance was of course also very good…

Is she still wearing a chest wrap inside?

What about underwear? He hadn’t written about this before. Speaking of which, how did the ancients wear underwear? Didn’t they have any?

Chu Ge almost bent down to take a look, but he knew he would be considered a pervert and beaten to death, so he held back.

“It’s really beautiful!” The saleswoman exclaimed, “Even better than a celebrity!”

Another saleswoman said, “Miss, you’re so serious about your cosplay, even the undergarments are ancient… should we buy another set of underwear?”

Underwear… Qiu Wuji’s mind instantly flashed back to the ad that Chu Ge showed her before that destroyed her views. She wanted to say she didn’t want that stuff, but couldn’t bring herself to say it.

Looking at the tone of these clerks, it seemed like it was a matter of course. Wouldn’t it be strange for her to act like that?

She could only remain silent and let Chu Ge speak.

Chu Ge said, “She’s single-minded, saying that if she’s cosplaying in ancient costume, everything has to be ancient… um, of course, we have to buy underwear, and it has to be good quality.”

The saleswoman glanced at him askance, what did he mean by good quality? Was it because the underwear protected the private parts? Was it too rough and would chafe if it wasn’t good quality?

Chu Ge nodded, knowing what the saleswoman was thinking.

The saleswoman sneered secretly again and looked at the envy-inducing beauty who made her not want to speak – how could her figure be so good? Looking at her, was it a C or a D cup? It was hard to tell because of the chest wrap.

“What cup size?” the clerk asked.

Qiu Wuji: “?”

Wait, aren’t these guys selling clothes? Why are they asking about cup sizes? She didn’t need a cup….

She looked to Chu Ge for help, but he remained expressionless. “I’ve never touched them, I don’t know,” he said.

The fact was that he had never written about it before, and when he did, he copied it from the “Song of the Goddess of Luo”: “Delicate and slender, harmonious and proportionate. Shoulders like polished bamboo, waist like white silk.”

What cup size was that again?

Chu Ge looked up and thought for a moment, “How about a D?”

The saleswoman asked, “What about underwear?”

“Hollow lace, normal size.” Chu Ge spoke calmly, as if he were ordering beef noodles with or without an egg.

Anyway, Qiu Wuji couldn’t understand.

The saleswoman looked at Qiu Wuji strangely who was standing there without saying a word and looked at Chu Ge with awe. This guy knew every detail, yet he said he’s never touched them before.

Seeing the saleswoman going to get the clothes, Qiu Wuji hesitated a bit and finally pulled Chu Ge aside, “Um…the legs are exposed…I’m not used to it. I see other people seem to wear stockings, would that be better…you didn’t mention this to them…”

Chu Ge blinked his eyes.

“I’ll mention it! Definitely mention it! How about black?”

“Black seems good, looks more serious…”

“Um, okay okay okay! You’re right.”

“And boots…”

“Thin high heels! How about ten centimeters?”

Chu Ge’s wallet was empty, and he even used his credit card, feeling like he was going to eat instant noodles for the whole month.

But it was worth it!

Even if his stomach would be empty, his eyes were satisfied, and his heart was happy!

Who says beauty cannot be a meal?

If someone told Chu Ge this in the group again, he will definitely slap them through the computer screen: ‘Even if I starve to death, I want to see the immortal female cultivator wearing an OL skirt and black stockings standing in front of me!’

“I feel like you’re looking at me differently…” Back at home, Qiu Wuji looked at him with distrust, “You didn’t used to be like this, it feels weird…”

“What’s weird about it? Aren’t there a lot of people dressing like this on the street? It’s just that they’re not as beautiful as you. Have you seen the way they look at you? They’re jealous enough to want to swallow you whole.”

I think it’s you who wants to swallow me whole.

Qiu Wuji didn’t say it out loud. After thinking about it, there are indeed many people dressed like this on the street. If she had to say that Chu Ge had any ulterior motives, it was probably his personal preference for this type of clothing.

She squeezed her legs together, feeling ashamed of the hollowed-out design below. People in this world were really strange. Was there really such a big difference between wearing this and not wearing anything? What if someone saw her?

However, she had to admit that although it looked strange, it was very comfortable to wear. Although it couldn’t compare to the cloud-woven brocade of the Immortal Realm, even the wealthy families of the mortal realm probably didn’t have such comfortable materials.

What a prosperous age…indeed.

Could this be considered her first experience of the mortal world?

“So, what does ‘girlfriend’ mean?” asked Qiu Wuji expressionlessly.

Chu Ge, who was excited just a moment ago, felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. He suddenly wondered if he would die when she found out everything.
