Chapter 99: Horror Story
Regardless of what had not yet happened, which was ultimately just speculation, they arrived at the warehouse.
Of course I couldn't see Leipzig, so I made a phone call and waited for a long time before someone came.
Clothes and pants have admiral uniforms, as long as they fit, Su Xia is never picky. Of course, they don't have to be too ugly.
The thing he desperately needs is underwear, of which he is a boxer briefs person.
He also needed a change of socks, but it wasn't urgent. In the summer, slippers were enough. He didn't have to wear sneakers all the time, so he didn't need socks. The supermarket in the garrison actually had ordinary socks for both men and women, but they were too small for him.
Su Xia was not used to wearing pajamas. If there were outsiders around, he would definitely dress up. If he was alone, he could wear whatever he wanted. But since everyone bought pajamas, he certainly wouldn't say anything that they didn't need them.
Compared with electric shavers , he still prefers ordinary manual razors, and feels that he can shave his beard more cleanly.
All in all, Su Xia arrived at the warehouse empty-handed, stayed there for a while, and finally left with a big bag in both hands, and Richelieu and Leipzig had to help carry it.
Razors, men's perfume, and Richelieu was very dissatisfied with the men's perfume that everyone bought. These were nothing. There were men's sandals , sneakers, leather shoes, long leather boots, and all kinds of clothes and pants. That was more than a dozen paper bags.
When they returned to the Guanhai Tower, Richelieu and Leipzig took a brief tour of his room and gave some comments, and then Su Xia received a call from Lexington.
When Su Xia was in the warehouse, she saw the newspaper from Leipzig.
It must be admitted that Kirov is really capable of stirring up trouble, so what hatred or grudge is there?
Su Xia was quite nervous about Lexington's arrival, and was a little worried that she would do something extreme when she saw Richelieu. When Lexington came, she didn't do anything special except greeting Richelieu and Leipzig cordially.
"Admiral, have you tried these clothes?" Lexington sat on Su Xia's bed, took out pieces of clothing one by one and looked at them, then compared them repeatedly in front of Su Xia.
Lexington certainly would not cause trouble for Richelieu. Rather than causing trouble for Richelieu, it is more important to take care of the admiral. A virtuous wife and a jealous woman, a normal man knows how to choose.
It seems that I was worrying for nothing. It would be best if nothing happened. Su Xia said, "I have tried shoes and coats, but I haven't tried shirts, pants, etc."
Shoes can be tried on on the spot, and surprisingly, they all fit well. Pants and the like are not easy to try on, but jackets are generally suitable after trying them on, and pants seem to be no problem after trying them on. Su Xia once said it was quite strange, and Leipzig curled his lips in contempt, please trust your vision, we are professionals.
"Then try it now. If it's too long, find someone to shorten it immediately," said Lexington.
"All right."
Su Xia used the bathroom as a fitting room and tried on one pair of pants and clothes after another. Most of the pants fit her well, but there were still one or two pairs that needed to be shortened.
"The Admiral doesn't seem to like those clothes... If you don't like them, then just throw them away." Lexington was quite perceptive.
Indeed. Su Xia can't be called a homebody, and he's definitely not the type who lives up to his current status. He prefers solid-colored, plain-colored clothes. He's not interested in clothes with bright colors or too many patterns. He prefers loose shirts, and doesn't like those Korean-style slim-fitting shirts that are tight. It's not that he buys clothes himself, but that others buy them for him.
"I think the admiral looks very handsome in it." Richelieu prefers fashionable clothes.
There was Lexington and Richelieu. Leipzig had hardly expressed any opinions from beginning to end. Now he held his chin with his hand and sighed that Richelieu was still one step behind.
After finally trying on all the clothes, Su Xia felt quite tired.
Lexington folded all the pants that needed to be shortened and handed them to Richelieu, saying, "I'm not very good at sewing, so please take them back and let everyone help you modify them."
"Okay." Richelieu took the paper bag and then looked at Su Xia, "By the way, Admiral, if you have time, please come to our place. Clothes you buy directly are definitely not as good as the ones that are hand-sewn by everyone."
Lexington smiled and said, "If the Admiral goes to order custom clothes, will there be any discounts? We don't have much money."
"If it's the admiral's turn, of course it's free," Richelieu said.
"Admiral, why don't you thank Richelieu quickly?" Lexington urged Su Xia.
Leipzig quietly stretched out his finger to poke Su Xia's waist, and when Su Xia looked over, he said silently: "It's a fight between gods."
If Lexington hadn't mentioned it, and Richelieu offered to customize the clothes for free, Su Xia might have thanked him out of courtesy. At this moment, he saw Richelieu staring at him, opened his mouth, didn't refuse, and didn't thank him, changed the subject, and said: "There are so many clothes and pants at once, there won't be enough clothes drying racks, right?"
Lexington smiled, "I suddenly remembered that you always said you wanted to cook for me, but it was just talk... Today I asked Xingxing to ask Yixian for some brine and bean paste. I must try your cooking today. Let's go to the supermarket together. You can check what ingredients we need and buy some clothes drying racks."
Lexington continued, "I remember there's still some pork belly at home... It's been in the freezer, and now I don't have time to thaw it out, so let's go to the supermarket and buy all of it. By the way, Admiral, can I order food? I want to eat twice-cooked pork and cola chicken wings."
"...anything is fine." Su Xia said. He remembered that he had mentioned it several times before, about cooking by himself and so on.
"Would you like to come with us, Leipzig?" Lexington suddenly said, "and try the admiral's cooking."
"Uh..." Leipzig was stunned.
Lexington looked at Richelieu and asked, "Does Richelieu want to come?"
"Okay." Richelieu said, she was not someone who could be easily bullied.
"Richelieu has never come to Lexington to eat..." Lexington joked, "It seems that we can't be careful tonight since we have a distinguished guest. Admiral, let me help too."
Obviously, Lexington is a gentle, skilled and generous lady, but not that generous. How can there be a girl who is not jealous at all? Not jealous, only if you don't care. She remembers the photo she saw in the newspaper clearly.
Su Xia vaguely sensed that something was wrong between Lexington and Richelieu.
Leipzig reached out and poked his waist again, whispering, "Admiral, this is Shura Field. Otherwise, go hide for a while. I'll help you deal with it... It's okay, you don't have to worry about me."
Su Xia looked Leipzig up and down. He was touched that Leipzig, who had such a sense of awareness, was so small. He said, "No problem, it's a piece of cake."
That night, Su Xia cooked and brought out all his specialties.
Richelieu and Leipzig stayed to eat with everyone. It was obvious that Leipzig was quite reluctant to stay, but she couldn't stand Richelieu staring at her. It was also during this dinner that Su Xia made up her mind to discuss with Xiao Zhai and the others tomorrow, first taking over the cafeteria, and then everyone would eat in the cafeteria.
Everyone chatted until almost ten o'clock. Richelieu and Leipzig were about to leave, and Su Xia also expressed her desire to leave.
Finally home.
Su Xia locked the door with a heavy heart and stood in the entrance to change her shoes.
He walked into the room in his slippers, kicked them off, and walked around barefoot on the wooden floor and carpet to find the remote control for the air conditioner. Lexington had packed everything, hung up all his clothes, and took the trash with him when he left. There was nothing he could do at this moment.
He thought of what happened during the day and immediately felt a headache. He didn't want to think about it anymore, because it was all troublesome things. He fell on the bed, then took out his phone to check, and struggled to get up again.
He walked to the balcony, holding the railing to enjoy the breeze. He heard the sound of waves in the distance. He looked at Missouri's villa. The lights were on in the living room on the first floor and in a room on the second floor. He looked at the motorboat he and Missouri had played on last night, and the beach at night. Stars were faintly twinkling in the vast night sky.
He stood on the balcony for a long time, he liked it so much. He stretched himself and planned to take a shower, and then... It was really inconvenient without a computer, it was really inconvenient, otherwise wouldn't it be nice to play games after taking a shower?
Boom——
Dongdong——
There’s a knock on the door.
Su Xia suddenly remembered that when he left Lexington's house at night, Lexington helped him straighten his collar while telling him -
"Admiral, you are home alone, remember to lock the door. If someone knocks on the door, no matter who it is, don't open it casually. Just say you are going to sleep and we can talk tomorrow morning if you have anything else."
