...
Lunch was prepared by Lu Fengzhou.
However, his cooking skills naturally couldn't compare to Lucian's.
After everyone finished lunch, Lucian followed Lucia and the horse girls out to go shopping.
Lucia was very familiar with the way and headed straight to her favorite store at the mall, "You all pick clothes, try them on, see if there's any you like."
The horse girls didn't move; they understood currency exchange rates, so they knew the clothes here were quite expensive.
"Auntie." Haru Urara grabbed Lucia's wrist, "Can we go to another store? The clothes here could buy Urara so many sets."
Lucia thought about it and felt she had been a bit too enthusiastic, but she had no complicated intentions; she just wanted to give the best to these horse girls.
"Urara is so sensible, but since we're already here, let's buy one set and then go."
Lucia had always wanted a daughter, but as her age increased, her body was no longer what it used to be.
Moreover, now that her son was already so grown up, this idea had gradually faded away.
Rice Shower took Lucia's other hand, "Auntie, it's too expensive. Rice-chan can't repay it, and doesn't know how to repay..."
With two little angels acting coquettishly together, Lucia's heart instantly softened, "Alright, alright, we'll go somewhere else, but you must let me buy you each one set."
"Hehe~ Got it, Auntie." Haru Urara also held Lucia's hand.
...
Lucia's somewhat stubborn intention couldn't be changed by anyone.
After arriving at another new store, seeing the horse girls still wanting to refuse, Lucia directly went to the clothing area and started picking clothes for them herself.
Silence Suzuka: "Lucian-kun, quickly tell Auntie that we actually don't need to buy new clothes."
Special Week nodded, "Yeah, the clothes we brought are enough to keep warm."
Seiun Sky: "I don't know if it's cold or not; I've already been wrapped warmly by Auntie's enthusiasm."
Tokai Teio gently pushed Lucian from behind: "Trainer, quickly go stop her, go go go!"
"Sigh, I can't stop anything." Lucian hit the brakes, "If I go over, she'll definitely tell me to go pick my own clothes and not disturb her~"
His own mom, Lucian knew her inside and out. Anyway, he wasn't touching this hot potato; whoever wanted to go could go.
Meishou Doto suddenly jumped out, "Me me... let me go."
"You? You go to deliver?"
It wasn't that Lucian looked down on Meishou Doto.
Meishou Doto's height was passable, but her personality, in Lucia's eyes, was just a little potato.
"Trainer, d-don't look down on me! (˃ ⌑ ˂)"
"Go go go, then you go." Lucian waved his hand.
"I'll go right now. ╰(⇀‸↼)╯"
...
Meishou Doto slowly entered Lucia's line of sight. Coincidentally, Lucia had a beige sweater in her hand.
"A-Auntie... I think, I think..."
Lucia looked at the clothes in her hand, then sized up Meishou Doto's figure, looked again, sized up again... surprised and astonished gazes intertwined in her eyes.
This girl is something else.
"Auntie, I think we should still..."
Lucia didn't care about this or that; she'd already picked the clothes, so there was no reason to put them back, "Doto, come with me."
"Eh?! (๑•̌ㅅ•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣"
Lucia didn't wait for Meishou Doto's agreement and directly pulled her hand into the fitting room.
"Eh——how did it turn out like this! (O∆O)"
After seeing Meishou Doto being pulled in, Lucian, who seemed to have foreseen all this, turned around, "See, that's the fate of the one who sticks their neck out, the greatest sucker."
"It's clearly Lucian-kun who didn't dare to go himself, and now that Doto went, Lucian-kun is saying sarcastic things."
Lucian: "?"
"You all should worry about yourselves first. I forgot to mention, my mom loves dressing people up. When I was little, I..." Lucian suddenly shut his mouth; some black history absolutely couldn't be said.
"Trainer, what's wrong? Continue~" Seiun Sky urged.
"Not saying. Anyway, worry about yourselves first. After my mom finishes changing Doto, she'll probably grab another one just like this~ I'm going to pick clothes first."
Lucian dashingly headed to the men's section, but midway turned back.
He had no reason not to see the horse girls' new skins.
...
Soon, Meishou Doto was brought out of the fitting room by Lucia. This sweater on Meishou Doto was unexpectedly sexy; one had to say Meishou Doto's figure was already very full and voluptuous.
"Mina... how is it?" Meishou Doto shyly stood in front of everyone.
Silence Suzuka's gaze stared at a certain spot.
"Looks good, Doto."
As soon as Seiun Sky finished speaking, Lucia suddenly walked to her side and grabbed her arm, "Sky, next one's decided to be you. Come with me."
"Eh? W-Wait, Auntie!" Seiun Sky's shout gradually faded away along with her, finally disappearing at the fitting room entrance.
Lucian looked at the group of horse girls, raised his finger, and said in a low voice: "Be careful, next one's you?"
He pointed at Silence Suzuka.
Silence Suzuka: "I-I can pick my own, no need to trouble Auntie."
"Then you?" Lucian pointed at Tokai Teio again.
Tokai Teio: "I-I'll pick my own too."
"Or... you!" Finally pointed at Haru Urara.
Haru Urara grabbed Lucian's finger and with one hand pulled over Rice Shower, "Trainer, help me and Rice-chan pick clothes. Let's go~"
...
Lucia took out the clothes prepared earlier, "Sky-chan, Lucian said you're very interested in Dragon Country's attire, but it's the middle of winter, so I still picked a hoodie for you. Try the pants and jacket yourself."
"Later, actually, I can take you to try some padded qipaos and traditional clothing."
"G-Good, thank you Auntie..." Seiun Sky stood stiffly, shyly saying: "Auntie, could you trouble you to go out?"
Lucia was stunned; she didn't expect Seiun Sky to be so easily shy, an unexpected contrast, "Alright alright alright, Auntie will go out~"
"Mm mm!"
Seiun Sky slowly let out a breath.
Changing clothes in front of others was still too much for her.
After Lucia left, Seiun Sky pinched the clothes; the fabric was still very nice.
"Will Trainer like this set?"
The top was already so covered; for the bottom, she could pair it with shorter pants, then wear a pair of white stockings.
...
Lucia walked out of the fitting room, originally wanting to grab another horse girl into the other fitting room, but unexpectedly, only Meishou Doto was left outside.
Seeing everyone had gone to pick their own clothes, Lucia was happy to relax, sat on the sofa chatting with Meishou Doto while waiting.
