Hao Ren was leading Vivian into a women's clothing store. Before Vivian could be dazzled by the dazzling array of "luxurious" goods around her, she looked around suspiciously. "Why do I feel like someone is staring at us?"
Hao Ren looked back curiously, only to find that there were only ordinary customers and shops. "It must be an illusion. If something happens, the MDT will call the police. "
"Oh," Vivian replied and turned her attention back to the clothes in front of her. Her mood quickly brightened up. To be fair, she really did not expect to be able to pick out new clothes in such a place. As a poor vampire who had been poorer than the entire history of human civilization, the most extravagant time for her was to pick out one or two clothes from the street stalls or even the second-hand clothing market. When she was dragged here by Hao Ren, she even felt a sense of happiness. As the latter often lamented: the poor vampire was too easily satisfied.
"Can I really pick anything I want?" Vivian whispered to Hao Ren with anticipation in her eyes. She looked eager. Hao Ren replied with a smile. "Of course, whatever you like. Lily has changed more than a dozen sets of clothes since she got home. I really can't stand the sight of the few old coats in your suitcase. "
Vivian did not need anyone to say anything. After a soft cry of joy, she rushed towards the dazzling array of beautiful clothes. She really liked these things — it seemed to have nothing to do with her race. After all, she was a girl.
Well, if anyone wanted to argue about the age issue, there was nothing they could do.
Hao Ren felt that he could not help much at this time, so he let Vivian pick out the clothes while he waited patiently near the counter. The cashier behind the counter looked at the somewhat strange couple with interest. After a long while, she casually said, "Your girlfriend is very beautiful."
"Of course, she is. She —" Hao Ren did not know how to react. He quickly explained, "Err, not my girlfriend, just a friend. I brought her here to buy something."
"Really?" The cashier girl was a little surprised, but in the end, she still pursed her lips and smiled. "It should be about time. You two look quite close."
Hao Ren scratched his head in bewilderment. He didn't know how other people saw the word "quite intimate".
After a while, Vivian tried on two sets of clothes with the help of the shopping guide. She seemed to be very satisfied with them. She waved at him from the other end of the clothes rack. "Mr. Landlord, can you take a look at these two?"
Hao Ren walked toward Vivian, leaving the cashier muttering to herself in shock, "Landlord? Why is it so messy to rent houses these days? "
Vivian loved black. Even if she had the chance to choose her favorite clothes, she would only choose black. The two clothes that she had her eyes on were almost completely black, slim-fit jackets. One of them was slender like a long skirt, but in fact, it was a woman's trench coat with a special design. The other was a short jacket with a string of small crosses on the waist, paired with a black cotton skirt. Perhaps these two clothes were the legendary retro gothic style. Anyway, the former looked very suitable for a vampire like Vivian. As for the latter … just by looking at the string of small crosses, Hao Ren knew that it was Vivian's special sense of aesthetics acting up again.
Any vampire in his right mind would never surround himself with a cross.
"Which one do you think is suitable?" Vivian's face was full of joy, and her pale cheeks were flushed with excitement. It was rare to see a girl this happy just because she could buy a new dress. Hao Ren sighed at the poor girl in his heart. He then waved his hand and said, "If you like them, take them all. I have my salary card with me."
The salary card was the savings card that Raven used to transfer all kinds of expenses. Hao Ren usually used this card to reimburse the living expenses of a bunch of unusual creatures at home.
Vivian was happy and uneasy at the same time. She swayed slightly on the spot and said, "Is it suitable … It's so expensive. I've never bought such good clothes before …"
"Sigh, you're so frugal." Hao Ren sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "You only bought two new clothes in half a year. I think you're a little too easy. Lily's snacks for a few days are worth more than your entire outfit."
Vivian did not say anything more. She asked the shop assistant to put the trench coat away, and then held up the other one as if she was holding a treasure. "Can I put this on first?"
Hao Ren pointed to the fitting room next to him and said, "Go ahead."
Then, Vivian entered the fitting room as if she had teleported …
After waiting patiently for a moment, the door of the fitting room was pushed open. Vivian, who had already changed into the new clothes, appeared in front of Hao Ren. She turned her body a little uneasily and asked, "Is it suitable?"
Hao Ren was stunned for a few seconds before he nodded vigorously. "The designer of these clothes must have been specially reincarnated for you!"
The vampire was still the same vampire, but the clothes made the man. After changing out of her old clothes, Vivian looked like a brand new F5. The well-tailored winter dress did not make her look bloated, but it perfectly preserved all the beautiful lines of the maiden's figure. The dark black fabric might have looked too lifeless on others, but it was especially suitable for Vivian's feminine temperament. The pale skin of the vampire maiden had a prominent, eye-catching, and even enchanting beauty against the black fabric. The series of crosses on Vivian's waist made Hao Ren, who knew her very well, feel that there was an indescribable … art. Yes, it was artistic.
It was completely different from the non-mainstream teenagers who hung a bunch of chains around their bodies. The crosses on Vivian's body were always critical, creative, and full of symbolism. Even if Vivian was a non-mainstream vampire, she was still a non-mainstream vampire.
"Is it really that good?" Vivian came in front of Hao Ren happily. She had always been calm and steady, but today she decided to be happy. She wanted to relax just because of the clothes. Hao Ren nodded his head. "Yup, you look like you've been photoshopped …"
Vivian took the subtle description as a compliment and accepted it with satisfaction.
The other employees in the shop were also surprised. They were not only surprised by Vivian's beauty, but they were also surprised by the inhuman aura that Vivian had accidentally revealed. Even if it was just a little aura, it was enough to shake the minds of ordinary people. One of the employees confessed that she had never seen anyone who could match the aura of the clothes in such a way. It was as if two things had never met before, but they were already prepared for each other from the day they were born. Hao Ren realized that this exclamation was actually adapted from the clothing's advertising slogan. He felt that it was a little exaggerated, but the employee still said seriously, "We have sold more than ten of these two sets of vampire-themed clothes. The previous few who wore them looked like family members of the deceased. In fact, we don't understand what the designer was thinking …"
Only then did Hao Ren notice that the packaging in Vivian's hand had vampire-themed words on it. The latter seemed to feel that the topic was a little sensitive and quickly rushed Hao Ren to settle the bill. The two of them left the shop together.
On the way, Vivian hugged her new clothes with a dreamy look on her face. "I'll wear this first when we get back. I'll keep the long trench coat for the festive season …"
Hao Ren did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Is that necessary? I'll buy you a new one during the festive season. Now let's go to the mobile phone store. "
The mobile phone store was on the other side of the clothing, shoes, and hats area. However, as it was not a specialized electronics store, there were only three or four mobile phone stores, and there did not seem to be many customers. Hao Ren did not care much about electronic products. Ever since he had the MDT, his mobile phone had become a mere watch tool outside. Needless to say, Vivian had no knowledge in this area. So, the two of them found a shop that looked nice and went in. There were quite a number of customers in the shop. Behind the long counter, there was only a female employee who seemed to be free. Hao Ren went over and knocked on the glass cabinet. "Excuse me …"
The female employee behind the counter looked up at him quietly. "Hello."
All the words that Hao Ren wanted to say died in his stomach.
The woman in front of him looked indifferent. There was a very shallow but obvious scar near the bridge of her nose. Even though she had carefully put on makeup, the scar and the face were still recognizable to Hao Ren.
It was the female warrior that Hao Ren faced when he fought the demon hunters for the first time!
For a moment, he thought that he was mistaken. However, when Vivian quickly took half a step back, he knew that he was not mistaken!
