However, Curtis wore a look of contempt. Bai Qingqing felt happy inside upon seeing his changing expressions.
“These clothes belong to my dad. They’re a little short, but make do with them for a while. We’ll go buy new clothes later.”
“Anything.” Curtis restrained his discomfort.
Bai Qingqing chuckled, tied his hair into a ponytail, then assessed him from a distance. She then nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, go out and wait for me. I’ll head out from the door.”
“En.” Curtis climbed onto the window and then jumped off directly from the third floor.
Bai Qingqing wasn’t worried for him at all. She put her homework, a change of clothing, and the money she received during the Chinese New Year into a tote back, then went to meet up with Curtis happily.
“You’re heading out so early?”
Bai Xiaofan was playing with the dog in the living room when he found it strange and asked. He then broke into a teasing expression. “Oh~ You’re going on a date.”
“Keep it a secret. I’ll bring you snacks next week.” Bai Qingqing smiled, then closed the door.
She dashed downstairs and immediately saw Curtis standing under the streetlight. Bai Qingqing’s heart suddenly calmed down, and she walked toward him while wearing a smile.
There were a lot of glass shards near the streetlight. Bai Qingqing tiptoed as she walked over to Curtis’s side, mumbling, “Why is this light bulb spoiled?”
After saying that, she realized that this light bulb had probably been broken by Curtis. She quickly pulled him and slipped off.
Walking on the street, Bai Qingqing felt that a lot of people seemed to be turning their heads to check them out.
“Look, that guy is so tall! He’s wearing clothing that exposes his belly button and sporting a scene fashion even though he’s a guy. ”
Bai Qingqing turned her head to take a look at Curtis. His belly button was really exposed. She quietly pulled down the hems of his clothes.
“He’s a guy, yet he keeps his hair so long. But the color of his dye looks so natural like he was born with such hair color.”
“I suddenly realize that red contact lenses look good, too. That guy looks so good in them.”
“He has such a good disposition. He must be a model. The girl next to him also has a great figure. That must be it?”
Hmmm? They were mentioning her, too? Bai Qingqing felt secretly pleased to be praised by a female for having a good figure.
She looked at Curtis, asking softly, “Erm, can we cut your hair?”
“No!” Curtis immediately replied, his tone rarely anxious.
Putting aside that his hair was actually transformed from a part of his scales and he’d become a lot weaker after cutting them, it was also his most glorious part when in human form. Every time he appeared, his bright red hair would attract Snow’s attention.
Moreover, even if he were to cut his hair, after one transformation, it’d get longer again. If he kept on cutting until it stopped growing, he probably wouldn’t be left with many scales.
Seeing that Curtis minded it so much, Bai Qingqing immediately dismissed this thought.
The bus that headed to Bai Qingqing’s school came and she quickly dashed toward the door while pulling Curtis. “Hurry up! There are still seats!”
Curtis’s pupils contracted. Like Muir, he was also wary of these strange boxes.
However, seeing how familiar Snow was with it, she must enter it often. Therefore, Curtis suppressed his resistance, pushed the people in front of them, then got in while shielding Bai Qingqing from the others.
A ruckus immediately broke out.
“Hey, how can you be like this? Don’t you know what it means by first come, first served? This is the first time I’m seeing someone pushing others away in order to get on the bus.” A fat lady was enraged, and it looked like fire was going to spew out of her triangular, dark-circles eyes.
The bus driver also looked at Curtis and Bai Qingqing with a displeased expression, probably wanting to chase them out of the bus.
