Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Chapter 274: Bastard



Chapter 274: Bastard

Xiang Ning drove slowly and soon arrived at Marsh Citys largest shopping mall. The last time they were there, Xiang Ning had bought his sister a Crescent Armor and his Windbreaker. This time, he planned to buy supplies for his next trip.

Shopping was an activity that held girls, both young and old, with a magical grip. Even if they didnt buy anything, they could spend the whole day just looking at things.

Xiang Xiaoyu was no exception.

Big brother, what are we buying today?

After the qualifiers tomorrow, well be heading out of town two days after that. Its a tight schedule and weve never traveled before, so we should buy some supplies for the trip, said Xiang Ning.

Ohh! In that case, lets go then! she giggled and dragged him inside.

Xiang Ning smiled at the chubby-faced, adorable girl. Since they were heading north, warm clothing would be needed.

The siblings walked into a clean, neat-looking shop that gave them a good impression. It was warm inside, much better than the cold weather outside.

Hello, how may I help you? A sweet-looking lady approached. She had noticed them when they were outside.

Hello. Xiang Ning explained his needs and the lady smiled, taking them inside. His sisters mouth was agape, eyes shining as she admired the clothes hanging on the walls.

These are all the best-selling items of the year, made of tier three Fairweather Bird feathers. Its very insulating and lightweightthese styles will suit her very much, the lady explained with a smile.

When Xiang Xiaoyu heard it was made of tier three fearsome beast material, all intentions of purchase disappeared immediately. However, she still couldnt hide her expression when she tugged on his hand and said, Big brother, I dont like this jacket, are there any others?

Naturally, the lady looked dubious but as a professional salesperson, they must have the skill of determining a customers needs. Not out of contempt for people who couldnt afford expensive goods, but to prevent awkward interactions. Even the salesperson couldnt afford the product, so why would they judge the customer? She had introduced the jacket because Xiang Ning had stared at it and she couldnt help but promote it. But seeing his sisters pitiful expression, the salesgirl felt guilty.

But I think youll look good in this. Why dont you try it on? Xiang Ning stroked her head with a chuckle. The two of them had a very cute height difference; even the salesgirl had the urge to touch her head.

Xiang Xiaoyu was still reluctant, but the salesgirl took the jacket down anyway upon Xiang Nings request. He took it, stuffed it into Xiaoyus arms, and insisted she go to the fitting rooms to put it on. Then he secretly went to the salesgirl and asked, May I ask how much it costs?

Um sir it costs 34,999 dollars.

Oh, alright. Well play it by ear later. My sister is just a very understanding person, do you get what Im trying to say? Xiang Ning felt like he was already being very clear.

The salesgirl cocked an eyebrow, somewhat confused.

Very soon, Xiang Xiaoyu stepped out of the fitting room. Xiang Ning had to admit that she was adorable in it, because it was a loose, puffy design. She looked very cute with her head nestled in the fabric; even the salesgirl was stunned.

What do you think? Looks good.

Mmm its alright, but.

Alright then. Miss, well take this. How much is it?

The salesgirl recalled Xiang Nings words and said, This costs 3,499 dollars.

Xiang Ning cocked an eyebrow.

But to celebrate our shop owners birthday today, everything is at a ninety percent discount. So its 349 dollars.

Xiang Ning nodded, appreciating the salesgirls flexibility.

Two minutes later.

Thank you! Please come again. The salesgirl was left in a daze. She shouldnt have done it, should she? What if he was a swindler? She had to tell them a jacket worth thirty thousand was worth three hundred dollars, what if theyd decided to take her word for it and caused her trouble? That would have been a disaster. However, the boy had an interesting personality. The salesgirl watched as he held his sisters hand on their way out of the shop and took a deep breath, smiling a non-professional, warm smile.

That night, the siblings made a full round through the mall. Countless shop staff was rendered speechless by Xiang Nings behavior. This boy holding all sorts of branded paper bags would solemnly tell you he was willing to pay the full price, but they must give them a much cheaper price in front of his sister.

Although Xiang Xiaoyu thought it had been a strange night, she blushed from embarrassment looking at their full haul. Most of the things had been for her. He said he wanted to buy things for the trip, but in the end, their haul included many irrelevant purchases too. All of them were expensive, too. While they seemed cheap individually, the total amount was enough to make her cheeks burn.

Xiang Ning saw her cute expression but only smiled without a word. It was a successful day for him; she wouldnt get a chance to return them!

When they got home, Xiang Xiaoyu didnt even take a shower. She sprinted up the stairs, then wrapped herself in her blanket on the bed. Xiang Ning burst out in laughter, then heard her cute laments. He just chuckled but didnt speak. Since it was still early, he started packing.

The amount of stuff he had truly surprised him. He thought his dimensional ring would be enough, but in the end, it wasnt, since there was already his Devourer inside. Exasperated, he left and jogged to the Chaos, taking the opportunity to tell Dong Qianyi and Old Jin that he would be representing Marsh City in a tournament for a month and a half.

When Xiang Xiaoyu saw through the window that her brother had left, she knew he was heading to that unknown place again. Usually, he wouldnt return that quickly so she carefully walked to the bathroom.

......

Xiang Ning suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to let Xiaoyu know that he will be returning late and headed back. He entered the house without knocking.

Uh, I forgot to tell you that Id be out late tonight. Nevermind, proceed, he awkwardly said, then turned and ran off.

As for Xiang Xiaoyu? Her face was a deep red as she bit her lip and squatted down, tears welling up in her eyes. Ahhh that was so embarrassing you bastard!
