Peach Blossom Dual Cultivation - Chapter 49: How Do I Wear This Bra?

“That’s an heirloom; it wouldn’t be right to pawn it,” Zhou Lang hesitated.

Inside his ancestral ring, there were indeed plenty of jade items. Although he was short on money, he had never considered using the jade from the ring.

“Those jades are for setting up formations, but some of them are of lower quality, with too many impurities. They’re useless for the formations. If you don’t pawn them, they’re just junk,” Xiao Xi explained.

“In that case, let’s pawn some jade.”

Zhou Lang made up his mind. Not only did he need to buy clothes for Xiao Xi, but he also needed a few decent outfits for himself.

With his decision made, Zhou Lang selected a jade pendant from the Heaven and Earth Palace within his ancestral copper coin—a piece of jade that wasn’t the highest quality—and took it to a nearby pawnshop.

To be clear, this lower-quality jade was relative. It was a piece of Hetian jade, not the purest, but certainly better than the cheap knock-offs you’d find at roadside stalls.

In the end, Zhou Lang pawned the jade for fifty thousand yuan.

With the money in hand, Zhou Lang bought several sets of summer clothes for Xiao Xi, based on her height and body type: athletic wear, office outfits, dresses, and of course, underwear and bras. He also got her shoes—sneakers, sandals, and two pairs of high heels. To top it off, he bought her a suitcase to store everything.

“Brother Lang, these clothes are so beautiful! I love them!”

Xiao Xi was thrilled, holding up the outfits and admiring herself in Zhou Lang’s bedroom.

Truth be told, this was the first time Zhou Lang had seen Xiao Xi so genuinely happy.

“Xiao Xi, hurry up and put them on. Now that you’re living in the mortal world, you’ll need to wear clothes from now on. You can’t keep walking around in those white cloth. For a girl, not wearing clothes in front of others is considered very embarrassing.”

Zhou Lang advised her, though he was still a little worried about her adjusting to life by his side.

“Don’t worry, Brother Lang. My old master explained all this to me before. Back then, I used to wear clothes. But after my old master passed away, I fell into a deep sleep. When I woke up, all my ordinary clothes had turned to dust, leaving only this piece of celestial silk.”

Xiao Xi blushed slightly as she explained. It turned out that, like any other girl, she had a sense of modesty. She was only so carefree around Zhou Lang because he was her master, and she didn’t mind being seen by him.

“Good,” Zhou Lang said, feeling slightly more at ease.

Then, Xiao Xi untied the white cloth wrapped around her, revealing her flawless, perfect body.

Her skin was as white as jade, with curves in all the right places. Her figure was so well-proportioned that it looked like a masterpiece crafted by the gods.

Even though Zhou Lang and Xiao Xi had already engaged in dual cultivation, the sight of her figure still stirred a primal fire in him. Her body was so alluring that even a man like Liu Xiahui, known for his self-control, would have struggled to resist.

“Brother Lang, how does my body compare to Li Mengxue’s?”

Xiao Xi didn’t immediately put on her clothes. Instead, she glanced at Zhou Lang with a playful look and asked softly. She knew what had happened between Zhou Lang and Li Mengxue the previous night.

“Put your clothes on first,” Zhou Lang said, feeling even more flustered. To be honest, both Xiao Xi and Li Mengxue had their unique charms, and both could be considered incredibly sexy.

“This underwear is so small,” Xiao Xi obediently put on the panties but was about to put on the T-shirt without a bra.

“You need to wear this first,” Zhou Lang quickly reminded her. It was summer, and with Xiao Xi’s voluptuous figure, wearing just a T-shirt without a bra would undoubtedly cause a scene. Her chest would certainly draw a lot of attention—and probably a few nosebleeds from onlookers.

“Brother Lang, I’ve never seen this kind of bra before. How do I wear it? Why don’t you help me put it on?”

Xiao Xi held up a black bra, stared at it for a few minutes, and then asked Zhou Lang for help.

Cough, cough… Zhou Lang had no choice but to pick up the bra and show Xiao Xi how to wear it.

In the process, his hands inevitably brushed against Xiao Xi’s skin and… well, her chest. He almost got a nosebleed from the contact.

But Xiao Xi didn’t mind at all, letting Zhou Lang do what he needed to do.

After some time, Xiao Xi finally had all her clothes on. She wore a simple white T-shirt paired with white casual pants, and on her feet, she had crystal-clear sandals. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail. When she wasn’t smiling, she looked slightly aloof, like a cold and reserved beauty.

“Brother Lang, do I look pretty?”

Xiao Xi twirled in front of Zhou Lang and asked with a smile. In front of him, she was anything but cold—she was warm, gentle, and adorable.

“Pretty? You look more than pretty—you’re incredibly elegant.”

Zhou Lang complimented her.

“As long as I don’t embarrass you, Brother Lang. I was worried people might say you’re so handsome and yet have such an ugly cousin,” Xiao Xi laughed.

“By the way, when Zhao Xiaorou comes back, just tell her your name is Zhou Xi, and that you’re my cousin from the countryside, here to find work. You’ll stay in my room, and I’ll sleep on the couch.”

Zhou Lang instructed.

“Don’t worry, Brother Lang, I’ve got it memorized,” Xiao Xi nodded obediently.

After giving her the instructions, Zhou Lang sat with Xiao Xi in the living room to watch TV.

Television is a common thing nowadays, but Xiao Xi watched with great interest, having never seen one before.

Zhou Lang realized that he hadn’t prepared her well enough, so he quickly taught her how to use household appliances and shared some basic knowledge about daily life.

Fortunately, Xiao Xi was incredibly smart and picked things up quickly. It didn’t take her long to master everything.

“Brother Lang, it looks like I still have a lot to learn. I think it’s better if I wait a few days and get familiar with this mortal world before I meet Zhao Xiaorou and the others.”

Xiao Xi suggested, showing a clear understanding of her situation. She didn’t want to cause any trouble for Zhou Lang.

In the Heaven and Earth Palace, Xiao Xi could still observe the outside world, but since she had been asleep for hundreds of years, she needed time to adapt to the modern world.

“That’s a good idea. Let’s put your suitcase and clothes back into the Heaven and Earth Palace for now. When I’m alone, I’ll take you out to get familiar with the world. Once you feel ready, you can officially meet everyone.”

Zhou Lang agreed that this was the safest approach, so he readily approved.

The two of them had lunch outside. Zhou Lang wasn’t about to start spending lavishly just because he had some money. His goal was to help Xiao Xi get familiar with the world, so she wouldn’t embarrass herself in front of Zhao Xiaorou, Li Mengxue, Ivanova, or anyone else. He didn’t plan on letting them know about his relationship with Xiao Xi just yet; he didn’t want to deal with their jealousy.

After lunch, Zhou Lang took Xiao Xi shopping.

Despite the scorching midday sun, which kept most people indoors, they were cultivators, so their bodies remained cool and unaffected by the heat.

At first, Xiao Xi was a bit unsteady walking in high heels, but she adapted quickly. After about ten minutes, she was walking comfortably.

Like most girls, Xiao Xi loved novelty and enjoyed shopping. Even though she was a spirit, she was no different in this regard, eagerly exploring every shop with excitement.

By around five in the afternoon, Zhou Lang was about to pick up Li Mengxue from work.

But Li Mengxue called ahead, saying she wouldn’t be going to the bar that evening. This left Zhou Lang with some free time.
