Chapter 281 Xiaoyou’s Invitation (6k More Updates)

March 18th, Jiqing City.

Xu Qiansu brought Gardevoir to the mall.

Although Lillie wants to dress up Gardevoir well, most of her clothes are in Alola... But it doesn't matter, she is a rich little girl.

Lillie patted her small breasts and said that Gardevoir would buy whatever she liked... Based on her family background, she had indeed reached the point where she didn't need to look at the price when buying things.

As one of the largest metropolises in the Galar region, Jiqing City is naturally not weak in business.

If you walk into a shopping mall at random in the commercial street, you will be greeted by a dazzling array of products and shops of all sizes.

Walking into the mall, comfortable heating and bright lights hit your face.

Even though it was early in the morning, the mall was bustling with activity.

The little marsupial raised its little head, its mouth slightly opened, and its big black and translucent eyes looked here and there... She didn't often come to such a lively place.

Soraya also raised her little head, looked around curiously, and took a few steps forward. A passing trainer shocked her and quickly turned around and jumped into Xu Qiansu's arms.

The trainer was also startled. He looked in the direction of Zoroa and saw Gardevoir at a glance. He was slightly startled and took a few steps forward to say something. Then he noticed the pouch from the corner of his eye. Beast and Zoroa huddled in Xu Qiansu's arms.

"Huh? Huh?" He blinked and looked at Xu Qiansu in disbelief, "These, these are your Pokémon?"

Xu Qiansu turned her head to look at him... she didn't recognize him, he was just an ordinary trainer passing by.

"Amazing, every one of them is so rare. I didn't expect there to be Pokémon that I can't name..." The trainer showed a hopeful look, but didn't say anything more. He sighed and turned around to leave.

Xu Qiansu looked away from his back, looked at Gardevoir, and said with a smile, "Go to a clothing store?"

Gardevoir was tapping his chin with his little hand and looking around. Hearing this, his face turned a little red. He thought to himself that it was strange that a Pokémon of his had to wear human clothes... But everyone came here, and still Buy a maid outfit.

I wonder if Susu will be happy if she puts it on? Probably so.

The male protagonist in that novel was very happy, even very excited, and even pressed the Gardevoir on the bed... Although Gardevoir didn't understand why he was pressed on the bed, and compared to being pressed on the bed, Gardevoir was Duo preferred to press Xu Qiansu on the bed.

Pooh!

Gardevoir hurriedly shook his head, cursing himself that he was so disrespectful, and how he treated Susu! ?

Thinking about it, she secretly glanced at Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu tilted her head slightly and looked at her confused, "What's wrong? Your face is so red? Is the mall too hot?"

Gardevoir quickly shook his head.

"Gardevoir probably thinks it's too weird for Pokémon to wear human clothes." Ma Li withdrew her gaze from the bustling crowd, looked at Gardevoir, and said, "Pokémon who are participants in the Gorgeous Contest sometimes That will happen too.”

Even someone as smart as Ma Li would not be able to guess what Gardevoir is thinking in his heart.

Gardevoir nodded quickly.

"Then you still want to buy it?" Lillie tilted her face and asked curiously.

Gardevoir nodded quickly again.

Lillie couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "Gardevoir is so cute~"

Gardevoir said I don’t want to hear you praise me, I want to hear Susu praise me for being cute.

Now that the decision has been made, there is no need to hesitate.

Everyone came directly to a clothing store called [SZ].

The overall light-colored decoration style is not very fashionable, but it is very comfortable at first glance.

On the counter, there was a red and white Frost Milk Fairy sitting, eating elf food in small bites. There were two strawberries on her forehead, and an inexplicable sweet smell came from her body.

When the sales sister saw everyone, her eyes lit up and she walked over quickly, "Who are you going to choose clothes for?"

"Gardevoir." Xu Qiansu took Gardevoir's little hand and gently pulled her forward.

Gardevoir lowered his eyes somewhat embarrassedly, staring at the amber horn on his chest.

"Eh?" The sales sister was a little confused. Even though she has been working for two years, she has never seen any trainer come here to buy human clothes for Pokémon... There are many races of Pokémon, and individual differences. It's big, so if you want to buy clothes, you should go to this Pokémon-specific clothing store.

Just like Vulpix, due to her cute appearance, she is a frequent participant in glamor contests, so she has a store specializing in selling Vulpix clothing.

But... the sales sister looked up and down at Gardevoir.

With Gardevoir's figure, it's not impossible to wear human clothes... She is a Pokémon that looks very close to humans.

Still heterochromatic...so cute.

Gardevoir is a very rare Pokémon, and this is the first time she has seen it in reality.

She intuitively felt that her heart was about to melt...and the Pokémon around this guest were each cuter than the last, which was really enviable.

The sales sister quickly shook her head and swept away the distracting thoughts in her mind.

She waved gently, indicating Gardevoir to follow her.

Gardevoir looked at Xu Qiansu.

"Go." Xu Qiansu pinched her little face.

With Xu Qiansu's agreement, she endured the weirdness in her heart, stepped forward, and let the salesperson choose for her.

Lillie also hurried over and chose clothes for Gardevoir together.

"How do you feel about this?" Xu Qiansu was looking at Gardevoir, but Ma Li's voice came from beside her.

But he saw her holding a floral shirt and looking at it.

"You want to wear it?"

"You want to wear it." Ma Li replied calmly, then raised the flowered shirt and looked at Xu Qiansu's body, "I'm here now, so naturally I can't just buy clothes for Gardevoir... Don't you think this dress suits you well? ?”

"Where can I match it?" Xu Qiansu didn't like this kind of frivolous clothing.

"Flower." After saying one word briefly, Ma Li covered her mouth and chuckled.

She put the flowered shirt back to its original place, turned her back to Xu Qiansu, and leaned over to pick out her selections. In this position, the light-colored knitted sweater clung to her skin, highlighting its slender figure. Waist.

Xu Qiansu looked around and saw that they were the only ones in the store at the moment, with no other customers.

He was relieved and turned his head to look, only to see Ma Li picking up another light blue coat and looking at it.

"How do you feel?" she asked without raising her eyelids.

"Much better than that one."

"Of course." As she said this, Ma Li held the shoulders of the coat with both hands and looked at herself in the mirror, "Because you bought it for me."

Xu Qiansu thought that since returning from the Sinnoh region, Miss Ma Li had been trying to ridicule him and tease him to express her dissatisfaction.

"Where's this one?" Ma Li picked up another white shirt and looked at it, asking without looking up.

"The white shirt... reminds me of a dominating demon named Pink Hair, but Miss Marli should have a lot of white shirts, right?"

"I have quite a few..." Ma Li pushed it onto Xu Qiansu, "So I bought this one for you."

Xu Qiansu looked confused.

"Shirts and suits are the official uniforms of Interpol... If you go to the headquarters of Interpol one day, although they will definitely give you a uniform, it is best to wear the shirt I bought you." Ma Li nodded lightly. On tiptoes, his hands stretched the shoulders of the shirt, fitting it tightly against Xu Qiansu, and explained calmly.

"As expected of Miss Mali, she mastered the most effective words and actions to conquer men in an instant."

"Thank you, but this is probably... my seventh method." Ma Li nodded lightly and made sure the shirt fit. She stopped tapping her toes and waved to the salesperson to wrap the shirt.

"What is the seventh method?" Xu Qiansu asked.

The salesman took the shirt from Ma Li's hand.

Ma Li straightened her slightly wrinkled light-colored knitted sweater, then raised her eyes to look at Xu Qiansu, "Of course the seventh way to make you fall in love with me."

Xu Qiansu was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Have I not been fascinated by you for a long time?"

"Of course I know." Ma Li glanced at him with a smile on her face.

Xu Qiansu remembered what Ma Li said last night that there would be a day when he couldn't hold himself back anymore...

He shook his head gently to clear away the distracting thoughts in his mind.

Cattleya knew this well, but she still allowed him to travel with Miss Ma Li... So no matter what, Xu Qiansu would not be unable to hold back.

"Shanana~"

I heard Gardevoir's voice coming from the side.

Xu Qiansu turned her head to look, raising her eyebrows slightly, feeling a little surprised.

Gardevoir stood in front of the fitting room, wearing a cute white sun hat... She grabbed the brim of the hat with her two little hands and covered her eyes, leaving only a crack to stare at Xu Qiansu quietly.

She was wearing a blue dress. Even though Gardevoir was a Pokémon, it seemed to complement each other and was inexplicably suitable.

"If Gardevoir goes to the Gorgeous Contest, even if she doesn't have to show off, she can win the first place just by standing there." Xu Qiansu couldn't help but praise... Facing his own Pokémon, he can praise whatever he wants. No need to worry at all.

Hearing this, Gardevoir couldn't help but chuckle.

She adjusted the angle of her sunhat... She still liked this hat, but unfortunately... this dress was not a maid outfit.

"Don't you like this dress?" Xu Qiansu could tell Gardevoir's thoughts at a glance.

Gardevoir nodded slightly.

"Eh? I think it's very cute... What kind of style does Gardevoir like?" Lillie stood in front of Gardevoir with her hands behind her back, raising her little face and looking at it. After hearing this, she couldn't help but curiously asked.

"Gardessa..." Gardevoir tilted her face in distress before saying slowly.

"Maid outfit?" Xu Qiansu was slightly startled.

"Maid?" Lillie blinked, then said to herself with a crooked face: "Gardevoir likes the clothes of the maid sister?"

Maid sister... Lillie is a noble lady with a real maid, so she has no illusions or unspeakable prejudice against maids.

She said: "There aren't many general clothing stores that sell maid outfits...well...you need to go to a Cos store."

As he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, which made Lillie look at him in confusion.

"Maid? What thoughts have you instilled in Gardevoir on weekdays?" But Ma Li was already looking at Xu Qiansu with a perverted look and scolded her.

"Perhaps Gardevoir just happens to like wearing maid uniforms? Just like Lillie said about the COS store, there are always people who do it just for pure love." Xu Qiansu explained.

Ma Li narrowed her almond-shaped eyes slightly, tilted her head to look into Gardevoir's clear eyes, and then looked away.

"If Gardevoir wants it, buy it for her to wear."

Although Ma Li often speaks harshly to Xu Qiansu, she knows better than anyone else what Xu Qiansu will and will not do.

"But before that, let's buy some more clothes..." As she said that, Ma Li glanced at the dazzling array of clothes in the store and tilted her head slightly.

Lillie's eyes lit up, she looked around, then picked up a punk jacket that was somewhat similar to the uniform of the Screaming Team, and trotted over to Xu Qiansu, "Please try this one?"

Xu Qiansu thought that there might be something wrong with Lillie's aesthetics. Although Xu Qiansu often regarded himself as the 'captain of the Screaming Team', he would never accept the aesthetics of the Screaming Team... But there was nothing wrong with satisfying Lillie's curiosity at this moment.

Anyway, this kind of clothes will only be worn for more than ten seconds at this moment.

Xu Qiansu took off her coat and put on the rock-style punk coat.

Lillie stared at Xu Qiansu, and after he had changed, she quietly clasped her hands in front of her body, pursed her lips tightly, and stopped talking.

"It's okay if you want to laugh." Xu Qiansu looked at Lillie who was obviously suppressing a smile, sighed softly, and said with a smile.

"Haha..." But it was Ma Li who laughed out loud.

She covered the corners of her mouth with her little hands, her almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents.

Noticing Xu Qiansu's gaze, she stopped laughing again, then turned her back, her slender shoulders trembling slightly...

It's great. There are not many situations that can make Miss Ma Li laugh so happily. Except when she sees me deflated, it must be wearing such funny clothes... Xu Qiansu thought to comfort herself.

And what about Lillie?

She still looked like she was trying very hard to suppress a smile, but in fact...

Gardevoir looked at Lillie and couldn't help but touch her amber horns and tilted her little face. She felt that Lillie's mood was a little weird at the moment. To describe it specifically... it seemed like a female Pokémon facing the male of her choice. Pokémon's emotions.

Oh...it turns out to be in heat.

Gardevoir suddenly realized, and then couldn't help but feel that humans are really terrible creatures.

She can go into heat anytime and anywhere, which is terrible.

Gardevoir withdrew his gaze from Lillie, looked at Xu Qiansu, and then did not look away.

…

In the end, Xu Qiansu only bought a few white shirts, while Ma Li and Lillie bought a lot of clothes for themselves. When they came out of the clothing store, it was already eleven o'clock.

Everyone decided to have something to eat first.

In front of a barbecue restaurant, Xu Qiansu opened the curtain and then made eye contact with someone in the store.

Gray knitted jacket, pink dress, brown satchel, clean and refreshing short brown hair, and a cute, energetic, youthful face.

"Xiaoyou?" Xu Qiansu called her name.

That's right, it was Xiaoyou who we met once in Hualang Town three months ago.

Xu Qiansu has Xiaoyou's Line, and Xiaoyou sometimes asks Xu Qiansu for some knowledge about Pokémon cultivation, training, etc... But that's limited to this. The two have never talked about any topics other than Pokémon, so Xiaoyou doesn't Maybe he knew Xu Qiansu's recent experience, but Xu Qiansu naturally didn't know Xiaoyou's situation.

Xiao You, who was standing at the front desk and asked about the price of barbecue, paused and stared at Xu Qiansu. It took him a few seconds to react, and his almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, "Eh? Xu, Xu Qiansu!?"

"Although the Galar region is not big, it is not small either... I can actually meet you here."

"Why do you sound a little dissatisfied with your tone?" Xiaoyou reacted and narrowed his almond-shaped eyes slightly, but he didn't say much. Instead, he raised his chin slightly, took out a box from his satchel as if to show off, and put the Opening it, two badges, one green and one blue, came into Xu Qiansu's eyes.

The first time I met Xu Qiansu was to tell him about her achievements.

These are the badges of the grass-type gym and the water-type gym... In just three months, Xiaoyou has gone from being a new trainer who knew nothing to becoming the holder of two badges.

The strength is certainly different, but this growth rate... is normal. Who made her the original protagonist of this area.

If nothing unexpected happens, Xiaoyou will win all the way, defeat many powerful enemies including Miss Marli, subdue Wujitina, and finally defeat Dandi in the finals of the Champions Cup, becoming the new champion of the Galar region... And These achievements were all achieved within one year.

"Where's the fire badge?" Xu Qiansu asked.

Hearing this, Xiao You scratched the side of his face in embarrassment and whispered: "I haven't challenged it yet. I heard that the fire gymnasium is very difficult. I want to train again and try to get the fire gym before April." Tie the badge.”

At this time, Mary and Lillie also opened the curtain and walked into the barbecue restaurant.

The slightly stuffy air and permeating aroma in the store make people feel uneasy.

Ma Li first saw Xu Qiansu standing there, and then she saw Xiaoyou holding the badge box, and was slightly startled.

Xiaoyou obviously respected Ma Li very much. She quickly put away the badge box and bowed lightly, "Miss Ma Li."

Appear very polite.

Ma Li nodded lightly. She and Xiaoyou were not even acquaintances. They just happened to know each other, so she just praised: "You can get two badges. It seems that you have put in a lot of effort."

"It's all thanks to the Pokémon." Xiao You smiled charmingly.

After the words fell, the two of them stopped talking.

Expecting Ma Li to talk too much to people other than Xu Qiansu is better than expecting the green caterpillar to evolve into Rayquaza.

Lillie, on the other hand, looked at Xiaoyou curiously, then gently pinched the corner of her skirt, performed aristocratic etiquette, and said hello: "My name is Lillie, and I am currently traveling with Mr. Xu. Who are you?"

Every word and deed is full of virtuous and elegant temperament.

Although Lillie looked like a naive little girl in front of Xu Qiansu, in fact, no matter her appearance, temperament, words and deeds, and the education she received, she always practiced the word "noble".

Xiaoyou looked at Lillie, a little stunned, obviously amazed by her. It took her a few seconds to react, and she bowed quickly, "Hello, my name is Xiaoyou, I am from Hualang Town... Xu Qiansu and I, uh..."

She looked at Xu Qiansu and tilted her face, "Friend?"

Xiaoyou...maybe he's a little bit stupid?

Xu Qiansu did not answer. He looked at Lillie and explained: "I once met Xiaoyou at the station in Hualang Town. Although I am not familiar with her, she is actually a warm-hearted and talented trainer."

"Thank you for complimenting me, but you don't have to emphasize that I'm not familiar with you." Xiaoyou couldn't help but said to Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu often solved her doubts... Xiaoyou actually respected Xu Qiansu a bit.

"Hello, please give me permission." A customer came from outside the restaurant, stood behind Xiao You and waited for a while before he couldn't help but remind him.

Xiaoyou realized that he was blocking the road and quickly bowed and apologized.

After the guest left, Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, and then Xu Qiansu suggested, "Let's go and have a chat?"

"Huh?" Ma Li turned her head to look at Xu Qiansu, her eyebrows furrowed... What is the relationship between Xu Qiansu and Xiaoyou?

Nodding acquaintance.

If you meet an acquaintance by chance, what else do you need to exchange pleasantries with? What else do we need to talk about?

"Eh?" Lillie was stunned and tilted her head to look at Xu Qiansu. Her jewel-like emerald green eyes were a little startled, and she suddenly had some doubts about herself... Could it be that he likes the youthful and energetic type of Xiaoyou.

"Ah?" Xiaoyou blinked and stared at Xu Qiansu... She didn't have as many thoughts as Mary and Lillie. She simply didn't expect Xu Qiansu to invite her to chat.

In fact, Xu Qiansu just wanted to ask Xiaoyou about Cang Xiang and Zangmarante... According to the original plot line, Xiaoyou should have had a relationship with these two patron saints of Galar.

…

There were a lot of Pokémon, so Xu Qiansu booked a private room.

Xiaoyou sat on the chair with his hands on his thighs, feeling a little embarrassed.

But she was not unwilling. It would be fine if she was alone with Xu Qiansu. After all, she was outgoing and cheerful, and she was familiar with Xu Qiansu, but... Ma Li's sense of oppression was too strong.

But Ma Li didn't do anything, let alone look at Xiaoyou. She just poured herself a glass of juice and sipped it calmly.

"What do you want to eat?" Xu Qiansu handed over the menu.

"Thank you." Xiaoyou said softly, then looked at the menu and couldn't help but blink... Restaurants opened inside shopping malls are always more expensive than outside due to cost reasons.

Xiaoyou looked at the string of numbers behind the dishes, hesitated for a while, and then said: "I'll just order a Slowpoke tail..."

The tail of Slowpoke is delicious, because Slowpoke's tail will fall off automatically every once in a while. There are large-scale Slowpoke breeding farms in every region, and they provide delicious food and drink every day, because the supply is so large that Large, so the price of this kind of food is not expensive in comparison, and the price/performance ratio is very good...

Moreover, the Slowpoke in the Galar region has regional differences. Their tails are golden, and while maintaining the delicious texture of their meat... they are very spicy.

Of course, there's nothing to say about the taste, otherwise there wouldn't be so many Slowpoke farms.

"It doesn't matter if you have more." Xu Qiansu picked up the juice and fed it to Soraya who was sitting on his lap.

"The price is too expensive..." Xiaoyou scratched the side of his face and said.

Hearing this, Lillie blinked her eyes and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. She felt that this girl who was about the same age as her was so straightforward... a bit like Xiaozhi.

Xu Qiansu shook his head and laughed. He didn't force it and handed the menu to Ma Li again.

Miss Ma Li is very particular about food. If she takes the order, not only will she not be ripped off, but she can also ensure that everyone is happy with their meal.

While Miss Ma Li was ordering, Xu Qiansu raised her profile and asked, "Where are Hepu and Xiaosheng?"

"For some reason, the two of them suddenly felt that the other was their old enemy, and then they traveled together inexplicably, leaving me alone..." Xiaoyou said dissatisfied, "Are old enemies so fascinating?"

After saying that, Xiaoyou was slightly startled, looked Xu Qiansu up and down, then put his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Do you want to have a Pokémon battle later?"
