Chapter 52: Completely Embarrassed
When two customers entered the store, the saleswoman quickly came to welcome them. One of them looked like she was in her thirties.
“Little sisters, are you here to buy underwear?”
Hearing that, Lin Muxi’s whole body trembled.
Maybe noticing Lin Muxi’s nervousness, Yu Xiaoxiao quickly stepped forward and explained to the saleswoman.
“Um, big sister, this is my classmate’s first time here. Could you help her a little?”
Hearing this, the saleswoman was first surprised, then looked over and saw Lin Muxi in the back, her face red, nervously grabbing the hem of her skirt with both hands. She immediately understood.
“I see. Then why don’t you sit and rest first?”
The saleswoman smiled at Yu Xiaoxiao, then motioned for her to sit aside, letting her know she would take care of everything.
But after Yu Xiaoxiao left, Lin Muxi, who had lost her “support,” became even more flustered.
Help… can someone save her… She didn’t want to buy this underwear anymore… She just wanted to go home…
“Little sister, is this your first time buying underwear?”
Seeing how shy she was, the saleswoman gently asked Lin Muxi.
“Y-yes… it’s… it’s my first time…” Lin Muxi stuttered, too embarrassed to speak clearly.
“Before this, your mom bought them for you, right?”
“I… um…”
What mom buying? That wasn’t the problem at all…
In fact, not only had she never bought underwear before, she had never even seen this kind of thing.
“Then, do you know what your cup size is?”
“Eh… how big…?” Lin Muxi froze, her brain completely crashing.
This was totally outside her knowledge.
Cup size? What was that? She had no idea.
They both stood there awkwardly, and Lin Muxi felt like she was humiliating herself in front of everyone. She wished she could just die on the spot.
But luckily, the saleswoman noticed her embarrassment and quickly said,
“How about I measure it for you? It’s very quick.”
Facing such a shy girl reminded the saleswoman of her own first time buying underwear, so her voice became even gentler.
“Ah… o-okay…”
Feeling so socially dead, Lin Muxi gave up on thinking. Besides, Yu Xiaoxiao was watching everything from nearby anyway.
Forget it, whatever. Just let it end already.
With her face burning red, Lin Muxi clutched her skirt nervously and stood helplessly as the saleswoman took out a measuring tape.
As for what happened next, Lin Muxi didn’t even remember clearly. She only knew that she mechanically followed the saleswoman’s instructions.
She forgot the measurement results too. She vaguely remembered the saleswoman saying something about “A cup,” but she had no idea what that meant.
In a daze, under the saleswoman’s guidance, she ended up choosing four sets of underwear, including some panties.
Carrying the shopping bag, she walked over to Yu Xiaoxiao, who was playing on her phone, with a lifeless expression.
The embarrassment wasn’t even the worst part. After she paid, the saleswoman actually noticed she wasn’t wearing a vest or bra at all, and even lectured her about the disadvantages of not wearing underwear.
If the earlier part was already torture to her pride, this part was basically rubbing her shame into the ground.
Yu Xiaoxiao, sitting on the side, was also completely shocked…
Because she also just found out, Lin Muxi had never worn this before.
A real warrior.
“Let’s go… we’re done shopping.”
Looking weakly at Yu Xiaoxiao in front of her, Lin Muxi only had one thought in her head now: hurry and leave this place.
“Ah… okay, then Lin Mu… Sister Lin, let’s go.”
“Mm, okay.”
“Um, from now on, I’ll call you Sister Lin, is that alright?”
“Of course.”
“Then, Sister Lin, how did you manage before… you never wore that?”
“……”
Can someone please throw this girl out? I beg you.
Being asked this question again, she wished she could instantly teleport back home.
But Yu Xiaoxiao was like she had found some rare treasure, sticking to her nonstop.
“I… don’t know, I just managed like that.”
“Ah… then Sister Lin, didn’t the clothes rub against your chest and feel uncomfortable?” Yu Xiaoxiao curiously leaned in close to Lin Muxi’s ear and asked.
“??? Huh?”
Lin Muxi really couldn’t believe it. This girl, who was even shorter than her, could say something so shocking.
Doesn’t she feel embarrassed at all?!
Her face instantly turned bright red, and she froze for a moment.
“I mean… didn’t it get in the way…”
Seeing Lin Muxi’s small face blushing and stunned, Yu Xiaoxiao leaned in again and repeated.
“It does… I just endure it, and it’s fine.”
“Then Sister Lin, you’re not wearing it today either, right?”
Seeing Lin Muxi looking this cute, such a huge contrast to the studious top-student image she usually had at school, Yu Xiaoxiao put on a mischievous little-devil smile and teased her.
Girls like Lin Muxi are really so interesting~
“Let’s go! No more talking!”
Exposed like that, Lin Muxi couldn’t take it anymore. She grabbed Yu Xiaoxiao and dragged her toward Mo Ziyang.
She really didn’t want to stay in this place for even another second.
……………………………………
“All done shopping?”
Mo Ziyang, who had been chatting with his grandpa, saw Lin Muxi dragging Yu Xiaoxiao over. He quickly hung up the phone.
“Mm… here, your card.”
Holding the shopping bag, Lin Muxi lowered her head as she handed the card back, trying her best not to let him see her embarrassing look.
But how could Mo Ziyang be fooled? He immediately saw through her shy expression.
No need to guess, most likely this silly girl didn’t understand anything, so she had been embarrassed the whole time.
Or maybe it was just her first time buying that, so she felt ashamed.
“Alright then, let’s go. Yu Xiaoxiao, you head home.”
Mo Ziyang stood up, took Lin Muxi’s hand, and was ready to take this little dummy around some more.
At least before going home tonight, he wanted to make her happy.
Seeing they were about to enjoy some time alone, Yu Xiaoxiao naturally didn’t want to hang around as a third wheel.
She waved at them and left.
“…Can we just go home?”
Lin Muxi held Mo Ziyang’s hand and looked up at him pitifully, hoping she could act cute and end this extremely embarrassing day.
“If we go home now, then tonight I won’t take you to the buffet.” Mo Ziyang whispered into her ear.
“…Let’s just go back. I don’t want to walk around anymore.”
Thinking about how she had already spent 200,000 of Mo Ziyang’s money today, Lin Muxi didn’t dare let him treat her to dinner again.
What if later he tricked her, saying if she couldn’t pay him back, she had to become his girl?
Though, honestly, it seemed like she already couldn’t pay him back now…
“Alright, let’s go then.”
Seeing how firm she was, Mo Ziyang didn’t push further.
He held her small hand and led her toward the exit.
