Chen Shouyi gave Shell Lady a bath, changed her into new clothes, then took out a bunch of glass beads and placed them on the bed, where she began counting them for fun, while he trudged back to the bathroom to clean the dirty clothes she'd taken off.
After applying soap and scrubbing several times, the white princess dress was still marred by patches of gray and black.
Chen Shouyi frowned slightly.
Seeing the dress, it was like a pristine field of snow with a black footprint on it, utterly displeasing to the eye.
What did Shell Lady do during the day? It had sticky tree sap on it that wouldn't come off.
Next time we go out, I should dress her in gray or black, so any dirt won't show—or maybe just let her go without clothes, since she wears so little and never seems to feel cold.
As for this dress? He hesitated slightly, then waved his hand and dropped it accurately into the trash can.
After all, she has plenty of clothes, wasting one doesn't really matter!
