The two girls continued walking.
"I told you I didn't want to go shopping. There are so many quiet places in Shangjing Prefecture, so why did we have to come here? It's too much trouble."
After scaring off another trendy, handsome guy who wanted to hit on them with just a look, Ning Muqing frowned and spoke to Gu Qiuman beside her.
"You just got back from a mission. All that fighting and killing has made you so cold and icy, it's making even me uncomfortable. Of course you need to relax. Coming to a bustling place like this to soak in the lively atmosphere will do you good. See how thoughtful I am?"
Gu Qiuman said with a wide smile.
"Hah. I don't think you're being thoughtful for my sake. You've just been grounded for too long and wanted to go shopping, right? Are you just using me?"
Ning Muqing shot Gu Qiuman a glance and scoffed, mercilessly exposing her.
The moment she heard the word "grounded," Gu Qiuman's face fell.
"I'm tired. Let's find somewhere to sit."
