The top that Cao Yu brought was a little too big on Snow Empress, but it looked exceptionally good on her graceful figure.
It was also Snow Empress's first time wearing these clothes, so she seemed a little clumsy, but Cao Yu patiently guided her from the side.
Yes, he's just being helpful, nothing more.
"Pretty girls really do look good in anything."
After a while, Cao Yu led her on a tour of the entire building. Although Snow Empress was a little curious about the equipment there, she didn't ask any questions.
Upon reaching the first floor, Cao Yu finally spoke, " Snow Empress, you can stay here from now on. There's a market town nearby, so it'll be convenient to buy things. You can use this phone to contact me if anything comes up."
Then Cao Yu began to teach her step by step, and Snow Empress, who was encountering these things for the first time, was full of surprise.
"Wow, Little Yu, your human Soul Tool have developed to this level?"
"I suppose so, but this isn't Soul Tool. If you're interested, you can study it with those people." Cao Yu pointed to the Soul Engineer and Shadow Clone. Snow Empress turned around and glanced at them, naturally understanding.
"Also, don't make too much noise here, lest you attract those old guys from Shrek." Cao Yu wasn't really worried about her safety, especially since Snow Empress was here to protect the research institute's personnel.
Snow Empress nodded and agreed, "Okay, I understand."
Then Cao Yu said, "Let's go for a walk in the city first, and I'll buy you a few sets of clothes and some daily necessities while we're at it."
Snow Empress followed behind him, constantly observing the surrounding environment. Having always lived in the Far North, she had to admit that human society had changed tremendously.
The number of people has increased, and at the same time, a variety of previously unseen Soul Tool have appeared.
The bustling traffic, the noisy hawking, and the wide variety of goods made Snow Empress a little overwhelmed.
Many people on the street recognized Cao Yu; they had met him at the restaurant, and they greeted him with smiles.
" Boss Cao, what are you planning to buy?"
"What a beautiful girl! Boss Cao is so lucky."
Cao Yu waved, "Haha, I just came to browse around and buy a few clothes."
Several acquaintances nodded. "Alright, Boss Cao, you're busy. We'll be going now." Most of them left one after another.
It took about an hour to prepare everything.
Then he took Snow Empress to a grilled fish restaurant, and when the grilled fish was served, she took a bite without hesitation.
Even Snow Empress couldn't help but praise, "It tastes really good, Little Yu, you guys really know how to enjoy yourself."
"Haha, if you want to eat here in the future, come to these places. The ones next door are also mine, and they have different kinds of food."
Snow Empress looked up at him, a smile on her face, and asked, "Does it cost money?"
Cao Yu said, "Of course it's free. In fact, I'll pay you for watching over the research institute for me."
Within the Shrek Academy, telephones have been installed in every dormitory, as well as in the faculty living area and Sea God Pavilion.
At this moment, Cao Yu was in his dormitory, holding a phone in one hand, with bursts of noise coming from the other end.
" Little Ya, I'll go first."
"I'm older than you, I'll go first!"
"How about... I go first?"
" Nannan! You need to wait in line."
Cao Yu wore a helpless expression, while Wang Dong beside him burst into gloating laughter.
At this moment, Jiang Nannan was on the other end of the line, had already taken the telephone from Tang Ya and Ning Tian when they weren't paying attention.
"Hello, Little Yu." A soft, sweet voice came from the phone; it was definitely Jiang Nannan.
Cao Yu chuckled and pretended to ask, " Nannan, why is it so noisy over there?"
"Hehe, Little Ya and Little Tian are still arguing, they can't beat me."
"My Nannan is still the best."
"That was for sure." Jiang Nannan said, waving her little fist, then gave Tang Ya and Ning Tian a few smug looks.
The two chatted on the phone for a while before Tang Ya finally answered the call.
" Little Yu, don't listen to Nannan's nonsense. She took the phone when we weren't looking."
Ning Tian chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, Little Yu, Nannan is really mean. Don't pay any attention to her anymore, hmph!"
Jiang Nannan said, "I heard you! You're talking bad about me again."
After a while, Ning Tian whispered, " Little Yu, are you free in a few days? Let's go out and have some fun, just the two of us, how about it?"
Cao Yu's lips curled slightly upward as he said, "Is there any surprise? I won't go if there isn't."
"Oh, Little Yu, you've gone astray. But... if you want it, you can... but I'm afraid... you won't dare, will you?" Ning Tian deliberately dragged out his words, making their conversation extremely ambiguous.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, who were standing next to Ning Tian, noticed something was wrong. They could vaguely hear the two of them plotting something.
An hour later, Cao Yu finally hung up the phone, but before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, the phone rang again.
"Hey, Little Yu, why couldn't I get through to you on the phone earlier?"
After hearing the voice clearly, Cao Yu said, " Xiaotao, Tang Ya and the others called just now, so we chatted for a while."
"Hmph, you jerk! You didn't even think to call me first, making me wait for over an hour. So, how do you want to compensate me?"
"Ahem, how about I come find you? Don't worry, I have no ulterior motives."
The two chatted for a while before ending the call, and Xiao Xiao called last.
Xiao Xiao said softly, " Brother Yu, shall we go out for dinner together later? I just finished showering, what about you?"
"Okay! Wait a minute, I'll call you after I've finished showering."
Before ending the call, Xiao Xiao asked, " Brother Yu, which do you prefer, light blue or light pink?"
"It's light blue, right? Remember to wear a short skirt, it's a shame not to wear such beautiful legs."
Even though she had known Cao Yu for so long, Xiao Xiao still couldn't help but blush when he suddenly praised her. Finally, she said shyly, "Hey! Brother Yu, you're being silly again."
After confirming that no one else would call, Cao Yu picked up his clothes and prepared to go to the bathroom to take a shower.
He glanced over casually and saw Wang Dong still looking at him with a strange expression. After being noticed, Wang Dong snorted and abruptly turned his head away, no longer looking at him.
I'm inexplicably angry again.
Cao Yu couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to make a phone call?" He pointed to the empty telephone, indicating that he wasn't using it anymore.
Wang Dong said with a smile, "I'm not like someone else, after all..."
After all, the person you most want to talk to is right in front of you, so what's the point of fighting?
Cao Yu smiled casually, then picked up his clothes and left the room.
