“Why did you transform into a snake? You might as well have run around naked!” Bai Qingqing felt a lingering fear. Thankfully, it was still early and there wasn’t anyone outside.

Curtis merely smiled and didn’t make a sound.

He could understand why Daddy and Mommy Bai did that. If he found a male sleeping with his female offspring in the stone castle, he would also beat that fellow to death right away.

Seeing that Snow was on pretty good terms with her parents, he felt that he shouldn’t fall out with them.

Bai Qingqing gave him an approving look, then opened her wardrobe and stuffed him in.

“Don’t make any noise. I’ll be back after lunch,” Bai Qingqing whispered.

Curtis nodded.

At the dining table, the family of four chatted while eating, like they always did. Though, Bai Qingqing was a tad out of touch with the modern world and couldn’t b.u.t.t into their conversation.

When her parents almost finished eating, Bai Qingqing lowered her head and mumbled, “Dad, Mom, can you give me some money to buy a handphone?”

Daddy and Mommy Bai both put on stern expressions. Mommy Bai said, “We just bought you a handphone last month and now you lost it. What a waste of money. We’ll get you another one when you prove capable of keeping your things properly.”

Bai Qingqing looked up and said with a serious expression, “Mom, senior high students can’t do without a phone these days. Sometimes the teachers will send us the a.s.signments via WeChat. I can’t do without a phone.”

“That’s true.” Mommy Bai was still hesitating when Daddy Bai got to his feet and said, “Wait here. I’ll get the money.”

“Mm.” Bai Qingqing’s heart bloomed with joy.

Since her previous phone cost 1,000 yuan, her dad would also give her 1,000 yuan this time, right? She would use 500 yuan to buy a phone. The remaining 500 yuan, she would combine with her savings of 500 yuan to rent an apartment and buy a few meals for Curtis.

Women tended to be more shrewd when it came to money. Seeing her husband relent, Mommy Bai said, “Buy a less expensive one this time. It will do as long as it is functional. Just give her 500 yuan.”

“Ah?” Bai Qingqing’s face fell. So now she had to buy a handphone that cost 250 yuan? Did such cheap phones exist? It was difficult to even find a 500 yuan one, eh?

Mommy Bai understood her daughter’s expression and said irritably, “Forget it if you don’t manage to buy one. Ask your cla.s.smates for help first. You can buy one when Daddy and Mommy’s salary comes in.”

Daddy Bai had already brought 500 yuan over. Hearing this, he cast a questioning look at his daughter.

Bai Qingqing hurriedly took the money from him. “Never mind. I’ll buy it if I manage to find one. If not, I’ll bring the money back.”

Daddy Bai and Mommy Bai never once doubted their daughter’s character, so they agreed without hesitation.

Bai Xiaofan shook his head and cast a pitiful look at his older sister.

After breakfast, Daddy Bai and Mommy Bai went off to work.

Bai Qingqing first sneaked into her parents’ room and found her mom’s bras. She picked one up and roughly gauged it by holding it against her body. It seemed like it could fit. She then rummaged through her dad’s clothing and took out a set of sports attire, before returning to her room with all the loot.

“Thank G.o.d Mom’s size is the same as mine. If not, how am I going to go out today?” Bai Qingqing said in relief as she changed into her mother’s bra.

Curtis reached a hand into her clothes and, after touching, couldn’t help but smile. “Must you wear this?”

Bai Qingqing glared at him. “You’re not to laugh!”

Curtis obediently wiped the smile off his face. However, his restrained expression angered Bai Qingqing even more. She let out a murky breath and pulled her dad’s clothes over his body.

Daddy Bai was 1.78m, whereas Curtis’s height was between 2.1 and 2.2m. Naturally, his clothes were a few sizes too small for Curtis.

Thankfully, Curtis was merely tall but not bulky, so he could still put them on. As Bai Qingqing had taken her dad’s longest clothes and a pair of knee-length shorts, they didn’t look all that weird on Curtis.

Mm, that should work.
