CH 17

TL: Moonlit

After the law enforcement department left, Lin Su and Su Jin tidied up the house and greeted Kane and Williams. Then they rode their tricycle and headed to the town for some shopping.

In the town, Su Jin first took Lin Su to open a bank account since Lin Su was already married and should have his own personal account.

Afterward, he transferred 18,000 beast coins to Lin Su’s account. In his opinion, without Lin Su’s purification ability, they wouldn’t have been able to earn so much money. He only kept a portion for their daily expenses, and the rest should belong to Lin Su. He couldn’t possibly take the child’s money.

When Lin Su saw the balance in his account, he didn’t say anything but thought about transferring some money back to Su Jin later. At this point, even if he said he didn’t want it, Su Jin wouldn’t agree.

It would be better to use a more direct method.

“Xiao Su, you go to the furniture store and look for a bed. I’ll go there and buy some seeds.”

“No rush, I’ll go with you.”

Lin Su drove the tricycle, and together with Su Jin, they went to the seed shop they often visited.

The one in charge of the reception was an older female. When he saw Su Jin approaching, he waved and smiled, “Long time no see, Xiao Jin. How’s Kane? Oh, who’s this little cutie? Is this your child?”

“Kane is doing fine. Yes, this is my child.”

Su Jin went over and hugged the person warmly as if they had a close relationship. Lin Su also greeted the person with a smile.

The old shopkeeper looked at them with joy in his eyes, “How can this little cutie have such good skin? It’s so fair and glowing.”

Lin Su subtly dodged the person’s hand reaching for his head and said, “Do you have apple or orange seeds and similar fruit seeds?”

“Those things aren’t easy to cultivate, and they have a long growth period. It’s not cost-effective.” The old shopkeeper regretfully said, not being able to touch Lin Su’s head. “But I do have some here. If you want, you can take them. Your father is a regular customer of mine.”

The little child was clean and adorable, with dimples on the cheeks when smiling. It seemed that young females were always the most likable, especially this little child, who had a refreshing and pleasant scent. Just looking at him made the shopkeeper inexplicably feel close to him. It was truly strange.

“That won’t do. Running a business is not easy,” Su Jin brought over some vegetable seeds commonly planted by everyone to settle the bill. Lin Su wandered around the shop and found that they didn’t have the wheat and rice seeds he was looking for, but he was delighted to find four fruit tree seeds.

However, in the end, the old shopkeeper insisted on giving the fruit tree seeds to Lin Su without taking any money.

Leaving the seed shop, Su Jin placed the purchased seeds on the tricycle. “Lori is still so enthusiastic.”

“When the fruit trees bear fruit, we can bring some for the old man to taste.”

“He will definitely be very happy.”

The furniture store was located at the end of the cross street, conveniently situated between the seed shop and their location. Lin Su asked Su Jin to get on the tricycle so they could ride there in one go.

Su Jin was afraid that he would get tired, so he said, “I’ll walk. It’s not far.”

“But it’s still three kilometers away. Hurry up and get on. I can manage it.”

Unable to resist Lin Su, Su Jin reluctantly sat in the cargo compartment of the tricycle, letting Lin Su carry him as they made their way through the bustling street toward the furniture store.

Floating cars occasionally flew overhead, casting small shadows on the ground before quickly passing by, resembling fish swimming and dodging in the deep sea.

Lin Su’s mood was good, with a slight curl of his lips and cute dimples on his cheeks. He pedaled the tricycle briskly, making a clattering sound, feeling peaceful and content in his heart.

When they arrived at the entrance of the furniture store, Lin Su locked the tricycle by the roadside and entered with Su Jin.

As soon as they entered, the temperature difference between inside and outside made Lin Su involuntarily shiver.

According to the sign indicating the way to the third floor, when the elevator doors opened, they were greeted by a variety of beds.

The dazzling array of options was truly overwhelming.

“Xiao Su, do you have any idea of what kind of bed you want?”

“No, let’s just look around for now.”

To be honest, he didn’t have much knowledge in this area.

Not surprised by Lin Su’s response, Su Jin pulled him and said, “Let’s find a salesperson to give us some recommendations.”

Just as they were speaking, a young female wearing a black uniform ran over with a smile. “Excuse me, are you here to buy a bed? Do you have any preferences? I can assist you.”

While speaking, his eyes kept glancing at Lin Su’s face. As soon as these two people came down from the elevator, he immediately noticed this adorable-looking young female.

Although dressed casually, there was an elegant and clean aura about him that inexplicably made people develop a favorable impression.

To have such a temperament, their family’s conditions must be good.

So, before anyone else noticed, he quickly ran over to seize the opportunity. Maybe he could improve his sales performance for the month.

“I don’t have any specific ideas. We just want a larger bed that can accommodate two people. Um, not too soft. I heard that overly soft beds are bad for the back.”

After thinking for a while, Lin Su could only come up with these preferences based on past experiences.

“Are there any particular colors or styles that you like?” The salesperson led the two of them while speaking, passing by a double bed. The bed was overall pink, with cascading lace curtains and sparkling gemstone decorations hanging from them. The overall style was very “girly,” and the salesperson mentioned that this particular style was popular among young females.

“The mattress has two forms, solid and liquid, like a waterbed. If you prefer a firmer surface for sleeping, you can adjust it to a solid form. And when you want to be intimate with your partner, you can switch to the liquid form for added excitement. This bed is highly functional, and customers who have purchased it have given rave reviews. They say it brings harmony to their intimate life as well!”

Accepting the salesperson’s enthusiastic hints, Lin Su pretended not to understand and turned his head. “Are there any other styles? I prefer something more… simple, with a simpler design and preferably in more neutral colors.”

In any case, he didn’t want anything in the “girly” style. It would be best to have a more “serious” bed.

Su Jin watched Lin Su quickly leave with the salesperson and noticed that his ears had turned pink. He smiled knowingly. Although he also thought the bed the salesperson introduced earlier was nice, someone as cute and lovely as Lin Su should sleep in a cute and lovely bed. But it seemed his little cub was a bit shy!

Although Lin Su rejected the first round of recommendations, the salesperson was not discouraged. He continued leading Lin Su forward and stopped in front of the second bed.

This bed was in a water-blue color. If the previous bed catered to the “girly” style, this one had a “boyish” vibe. Compared to the previous one, it didn’t have a curtain but had a white furry canopy, also decorated with sparkling gemstones.

“This bed is one of the best-selling models in our store. Its mattress is made of velvet and silk fabric, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. The most important feature is its vibrating massage function. It can relieve fatigue after a long day and provide extra pleasure during intimate moments. It has received high praise from online reviews, and we also provide additional user experiences as a bonus.”

After the salesperson passionately finished his explanation, he believed that he could definitely win over the little cub in front of him. But then he saw Lin Su suddenly raise his hand to cover his mouth and cough, turning his head to look around.

The salesperson hesitated, “If you don’t like this one, let me show you some other options. We have many different beds in our store, for example…”

Before the salesperson could finish his sentence, he noticed the look of astonishment in Lin Su’s eyes as he gazed at the bed opposite. From the outside, it looked ordinary and lacked any design elements. It was simply black, without the cascading curtains or sparkling gemstones—a bed with no distinct features, very straightforward and masculine.

“This one looks good.” Lin Su pressed down on the mattress, finding it sufficiently firm. It had a “serious” look to it. “How much is this bed?”

The size was also suitable. Even if he and William slept on it together, there would still be room for another person in the middle. This way, they wouldn’t fight over space when turning over at night.

The salesperson stared at the bed that had been sitting in the store for over three years without attracting any interest. He really wanted to take out an oxygen tank and breathe a few breaths to keep himself from passing out. Suppressing the urge to faint, he spoke without emotion, “It’s priced at 2888, and you can participate in our store promotion draw for a chance to win a wrist-style smart-brain device produced by Cl Corporation.”

“That’s the one. What do you think, Female Father?”

Su Jin walked over and said, “If you like it, then it’s good.”

“Then we’ll take it. Can you deliver it to our home?”

“Of course.” The salesperson said those three words, took a deep breath, and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really not considering anything else?”

Although the store manager had said that if someone could sell this bed, they would receive a double commission for the month, it really… didn’t match his aesthetic, right?

“No need. I’m very satisfied with this bed.” Lin Su firmly refused. Even if he looked at more options, there wouldn’t be anything that suited his taste better than this bed.

The salesperson looked at the determined expression on the adorable little cub and had the strong urge to shout, ‘Why do you look so cute but have such strange taste in aesthetics?’

Lin Su: I was clearly just browsing furniture stores, why does it feel like I’m browsing… something else~~~
