You really did it, Ningguang!
Even R18 stuff has been created. Now, it's not just women's money, but men's money that probably won't be safe.
Jack stroked Qiqi's head, thinking about how to get the little one away, and then pull Hutao in with him to broaden their horizons.
As his gaze extended to the maximum.
Jack noticed another area where people were gathered. A delicate and cute little girl was having her body measured by a shop assistant.
"Miss shopping guide, excuse me, what are they doing over there?"
The shopping guide glanced over and replied, "That's our store's special customization service. If a customer is not satisfied after choosing clothes, they can have their body data measured, and then our senior designers will personally make the clothes."
After hearing this, Jack's eyes lit up and he asked, "How long does this measurement take?"
"It depends on how many people are in line. Usually, one person takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete."
Jack looked at the measurement area, which seemed to be almost finished.
He estimated that if he had Qiqi go customize clothes, he could probably get 15 to 20 minutes of time.
That much time should be enough to browse the R18 lingerie area.
"Alright then, I just feel like some of these clothes don't suit my sister. She's ethereal and should be paired with some more vintage styles."
The shopping guide looked at the adorably blank Qiqi and nodded solemnly.
If this child were seen in the deep mountains, she would undoubtedly call her a little immortal.
This temperament is definitely not something ordinary families possess.
After some flattery.
The trio exploring the shop were led by the shopping guide to the children's clothing area.
Then Jack carefully selected three or four outfits for Qiqi.
"These styles are all good. With a few modifications, they should suit my Qiqi."
Although it was to get Qiqi away.
Jack was serious about choosing clothes.
Liyue's culture had developed for thousands of years, and its apparel industry far exceeded Jack's imagination.
This also made him even more interested in the so-called R18 area.
"Qiqi, just stay here and let the shop assistant measure your body. Brother and Hutao will go to other places for a bit and come back to pick you up soon."
Qiqi's brows furrowed slightly.
Her small hand tugged at Jack's sleeve, and she looked at him with pleading eyes like a small beast.
She seemed to be saying: Don't leave me.
How long has it been since she recovered, and she's already learned to act cute?
Jack suppressed the pang of conscience, gently kissed Qiqi's forehead, and then used Aralia Element to sculpt a small wooden figurine of himself.
"Don't worry, it's just for a short while. If you feel lonely, just touch this figurine. With it, brother will be like he's always by your side."
Jack infused the small wooden figurine with a large amount of Aralia Element Power.
It possessed extremely vigorous vitality, and when held, a continuous flow of healing power would emanate from it, already making it a relic capable of calming the mind.
Qiqi clutched the wooden figurine, placed it over her heart, and whispered, "Actually… Qiqi can do it too."
"..."
Jack almost thought he was hallucinating.
He quickly looked at Qiqi.
But Qiqi was no longer bothered by the two who were about to leave; she went to the shopping guide on her own to have her body measurements taken.
Only her earlobes were deeply flushed, no longer the pale color they once were.
"She is still an immortal who has lived for thousands of years after all. Even if her appearance is like a child's, after recovering her memories and power, her learning and growth speed are so fast?"
Jack shook his head, simply treating today's events as a beautiful misunderstanding.
For now… he would continue to raise Qiqi as his younger sister. As for future matters, they could be discussed later.
...
Splendor Boutique, in front of the mysterious door.
Hutao nervously squeezed Jack's hand.
"What are you panicking about? Is there anything that frightens you, Grand Master Hutao?"
"N-no, there isn't!"
Hutao explained faintly.
"I've heard about this place. All the male employees in the Hall of Wangsheng who accompany their wives here invariably come to work the next day with sunken eyes and weak kidneys. There's a great terror in here!"
"But what are you, a woman, afraid of?"
"Oh, right, I'm a woman!"
Hutao immediately straightened her back.
She even walked ahead and actively pushed open the mysterious door.
Jack shook his head and followed behind her.
...
Creak.
The antique wooden door turned, emitting an eerie sound.
Hutao, looking shifty, poked her head out, her small eyes half-open and half-closed.
After seeing the scene before her clearly, a flush of crimson spread directly from her neck to her ear tips.
"I just remembered there are clothes in the Hall of Wangsheng that haven't been collected! I'm going back first!"
Snap!
Jack grabbed Hutao's wrist.
"Since you're already here, why not buy a couple of pieces?"
"N-no… no! I'm still young, I can't wear these!"
Hutao frantically waved her other hand, not specifying what she meant by 'young'.
Although Hutao usually acts carefree, living in an ancient aristocratic family, she is actually a conservative person.
She truly couldn't handle such a stimulating scene!
"Alright, then I'll pick a few for myself, and then for Keqing and the others."
Jack released Hutao and continued forward.
He left a retreating figure for Hutao to ponder.
"Hmm, this one is good. The openwork design on top and bottom is very daring, and it's very convenient."
"Hiss~ isn't this just a string? Liyue people really know how to have fun."
"Latex suit? No, it's a leather product. 500,000 mora a piece. It's a bit expensive, but it's practical."
Every word Jack spoke.
Hutao's mind conjured an image of herself appearing before him in such shameless clothes.
As she thought about it, her thighs tightened and rubbed against each other, and a strange sensation welled up.
She instinctively wanted to escape, but that stubborn refusal to admit defeat kept her from moving her legs.
That hateful guy! He's actually using a taunt to threaten this young lady!!!
Hutao glared fiercely at Jack's back, and in her anger, she directly closed the mysterious door.
It's just adult clothes! She, Hutao, can wear them for him to see too!
Puffing her cheeks, Hutao returned to Jack's side.
Jack found her pufferfish-like appearance amusing, so he poked her with his index finger.
Poof~
"Ow!"
Hutao opened her mouth and bit Jack's finger.
Unfortunately, Jack had maxed out his agility and dodged directly.
"Have you come to your senses?"
"Hmph! Being so complacent, be careful of female ghosts draining your yang energy! When that happens, if you come to our Hall of Wangsheng, I'll definitely extort a hefty sum from you!"
"Then you're going to be disappointed. I don't have much else, but my yang energy is very abundant. Want to try?"
Jack held up a white carved transparent garment in his hand, speaking with a double meaning.
"Huh? You want me to here?"
Hutao said with a flushed face.
Although there weren't many customers around, this was still a public place, wasn't it?
Jack smiled slyly and formed a hand seal.
An orange-yellow teapot floated in the air.
"Did you forget I have this thing?"
The Serenitea Pot?!
Hutao's mouth fell open.
Wait! Something's not right!
Hutao's intelligence suddenly kicked in.
She looked at the clothes Jack had just been holding.
The size, the dimensions, weren't they just right for her body type?
So, he was picking out clothes for her just now, and then waiting for her to convince herself and willingly fall into his trap?
After figuring it out, Hutao was no longer as shy; she even became smug for guessing Jack's scheme.
"Very well! To hunt geese all day only to have one peck your backside, hmph, as expected of the person this Grand Master fancies. You win this time, and also…"
Hutao lowered her head, "It's my first time… you, you be gentle later."
