"I'm not a pig. I don't want to be fat." Lily refuted subconsciously.
"Well, I can keep you as a pig." He tightened his hands around her waist and got closer to her, "I will feel more comfortable if you put on some weight."
Lily's face turned red and she lowered her head because of shyness. Eric was more and more smooth tongued now.
Her every move, including her expressions, was clearly seen through the mirror. With a pampering smile on the corner of her mouth, Eric lowered his head and kissed her on the exposed neck. Then he raised his head to look at the shop assistant not far away from him.
"Please give me that vest."
Hearing this, the saleswoman immediately handed the pure white vest to Eric.
After taking over the vest and putting it on for Lily, he looked at it again. Eric nodded with satisfaction, and then whispered in her ear, "I'll pay. Wait for me here for a moment."
"Yes." Lily nodded with a smile.
While Eric was waiting to pay the dress, Lily clearly felt that several people's attention was focused on her. There were also other saleswomen, other customers who came to see the dress in the store.
There were even some people whispering. They looked like children on the surface. Eric was better than her, though he was also a little childish.
But Lily, everyone could see that she was a little girl under age. Seeing their intimate behavior, they would naturally talked to each other.
It was not the first time that Lily had seen such eyes. Not to mention that the relationship between the two people was clear now. They were not meant to be apart. Thinking of this, Lily stood up a bit.
After paying for the clothes, Eric protected Lily in a gesture of protection with one hand and the other hand carried clothes when he went outside.
As soon as they walked out of the shop, Lily bumped into one of the men who came in.
"Watch out!" At the same time, Eric quickly supported Lily who was hit. After she stood firm, he looked up at the man who had crashed into her. There was a hint of sharpness in her black eyes.
"Ethan, why are you so careless? You bumped her." Dale blamed him, "Apologize to them now!"
"Sorry, I didn't notice the road just now and hit you." After listening to his mother, Ethan apologized to Lily politely.
"Nothing." Lily smiled. He had apologized, so she didn't care about it. What's more, he didn't hit her on purpose.
"Little sister, are you all right? Did you hurt anywhere?" Dale asked Lily apologetically.
"Aunt, I am fine." Lily replied politely with a smile, and then took a look at Dale and her son.
Lily frowned as she looked at her. She looked familiar.
Ah, she remembered, last time when the two families sat together for dinner, the woman who walked into the wrong room wore makeup that night and now she looked younger than the last time.
"That's great." She then turned to look at Eric and asked, "Did he hit you just now?"
"No, he didn't." Eric replied briefly, glancing her up and down with his dark eyes and also glancing at the Ethan.
Somehow, Eric frowned his eyebrows subconsciously when he saw Ethan. The way he looked was kind of familiar, and his heart suddenly grew a little unhappy.
"I'm really sorry." "He walked in a rush and accidentally bumped you. To show my sorry, can I buy you a cup of drink to apologize?" Dale said again.
"No, thanks." "Be careful next time. We have something else to do," Replied Eric in a distant tone.
"I'm so sorry." Said Dale apologetically.
Then she dragged Ethan and made way for them.
Eric glanced at them, then left with Lily in his arms.
Not long after they left, there was some indifference on Dale's face. The guilt she had on her face a second ago disappeared without a trace, and her tone was totally different from before.
"Did you see that? He is Eric, the one you need to get close to."
"Just them?" There was a hint of contempt in Ethan's tone, as if he didn't take Lily and Eric seriously.
"Yes." Dale nodded and then turned to look at him with a hint of pity in her eyes. "Don't blame me for asking you to do this. But we have to do it. We will get back what belongs to us, or you will never be able to get back to Gu family for the rest of your life."
"Yes." Ethan said. He looked at the direction where Eric and Lily disappeared as if he was thinking about something.
