Chapter 1175: Sleeping Together
"Do you want to buy clothes?"
Luo Quan looked at Xiao Mao standing before her and noticed she seemed a bit shy.
"Yeah, after losing weight, it seems I can't wear any of my old clothes anymore." Li Xiaomao nodded gently and added, "And since I'm buying them now, I'll probably have to buy more again before long."
"Is that all? It's just clothes—if you want to buy them, let's go!" Luo Quan waved her hand grandly, ready to take Xiao Mao to the mall.
But before they went, she had to use the Disguise Necklace to cover up those eye-catching cat ears.
"Going shopping? I want to go too!" Upon hearing they were going shopping, Seeing Wen Xia immediately raised her hand.
In the entire house, she was the one who loved shopping the most.
However, ever since she became famous, she rarely went shopping. On one hand, she had no time; on the other, she was afraid of being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble.
Still, whenever she had nothing to do, she would put on sunglasses and head to the mall for a stroll.
Sometimes she wouldn't buy anything at all, just walking through the dazzling array of goods, buying whatever she felt like—this feeling alone was enough to make her happy.
And this time, since Luo Quan was taking the initiative to go out, Seeing Wen Xia certainly didn't want to miss it.
Dongfang Chen and Xu Yanqing had no desire to go shopping; they just wanted to stay in the room, drink milk tea, scroll through their phones, and interact with fans.
Once decided, the three of them changed clothes and headed out. Their mode of transport was a new car Luo Quan had just picked up from the Nikola 4S dealership.
Her previous car had been completely totaled due to her act of chivalry. Fortunately, the car wasn't expensive, and Luo Quan felt it was well worth it to save so many lives.
However, this experience added another layer of shadow to Luo Quan's feelings about going out shopping.
It seemed that every time she went to the mall, something bad happened.
Kidnappings, staged accidents, revenge against society—for an ordinary person, encountering this once would be a major disaster, and she had already encountered it no less than three times.
She hoped that this time out, she wouldn't encounter anything outrageous; she really just wanted to do some simple shopping.
This time, everything was normal all the way to the mall.
After getting out of the car, the three women with great figures attracted quite a bit of attention.
But because they were wearing masks, no one came over to ask for their WeChat yet—perhaps they were afraid of encountering a "back-view killer."
"Is this a shopping mall in Huaxia?" Xiao Mao looked at the shopping center before her, her tone filled with emotion. "It seems a bit small."
"This is small?" Seeing Wen Xia was stunned. This was one of the largest malls in Night Shanghai. If this was considered small, how big were the shopping centers on Xiao Mao's island?
Xiao Mao thought for a moment and replied, "They're like entire cities. If you don't have a tour guide app, you'll get lost inside."
"Your island must be very wealthy then." Seeing Wen Xia's eyes were instantly filled with little stars. "I must go visit your place one day!"
For someone who loves shopping, it's really hard to refuse a mall that's like an entire city.
To Seeing Wen Xia's request, Xiao Mao naturally agreed without hesitation.
But only Luo Quan knew that if Seeing Wen Xia really went, she probably wouldn't have any interest in shopping, because everything there would be extremely attractive to her. Just the content online was enough to keep her occupied for a long time.
"Stop chatting. Today's main task is to buy Xiao Mao some well-fitting clothes." Luo Quan clapped her hands, bringing the other two's thoughts back.
Afterward, the three of them headed straight for the clothing section on the third floor.
According to Seeing Wen Xia's plan, they should have strolled slowly from the first floor and only started picking out clothes once they reached the third.
But she hadn't expected Luo Quan's goal to be so clear, skipping over so many goods along the way that looked like they would spark a desire to shop. How was this any different from those boys?!
"But the purpose of me coming out is to buy clothes for Xiao Mao, not to actually go shopping." Luo Quan shrugged innocently. "You were the one who misunderstood."
"I shouldn't have come out." Seeing Wen Xia muttered, then followed Luo Quan into a lingerie store.
After some measurements by the clerk, Xiao Mao's size was determined.
36E—it had the same flair as Luo Quan's from two years ago, firmly ranking in the top three in the entire company.
However, she still had to lose some more weight, so it would likely shrink a bit.
But no matter how much she lost, it wouldn't go lower than a D.
This letter made Seeing Wen Xia even more eager for the side-effect-free breast enhancement potion Luo Quan had mentioned.
After buying lingerie, the next items were some changes of clothes suitable for the current season.
But because there were many clothes to buy and Luo Quan didn't have any particularly good suggestions for Xiao Mao's style, she let her follow Seeing Wen Xia to pick them out.
She, on the other hand, had the waiter pour her a glass of juice and started playing on her phone on the sofa, waiting for them while sipping her drink.
Come to think of it, the entertainment industry lately has been truly lively.
Ever since the concert ended, the gossip in the domestic entertainment scene hasn't stopped.
It's either this person sexually harassing someone or that person cheating, with a few already-finished top-tier stars mixed in, dragged out by excited netizens to be whipped posthumously.
When these people were doing those things, they probably always harbored a sense of luck, thinking, "I'm a dignified top-tier star, a big celebrity, a proud son of heaven worshipped by the masses—how could I possibly have problems over such a trivial matter?"
But when the news of the solid evidence came out one after another, these celebrities finally realized that they were no different from most people in the world.
If you break the law, you will be punished.
If you commit a crime, you will be sent to prison.
They were just a bit more famous than the average person; there were no special privileges to speak of. If you're finished, you're finished.
Looking at the several trending searches on Weibo starting with the word "Explosive," Luo Quan finally realized what "If you don't want people to know, don't do it" meant.
So, never harbor a sense of luck, and don't think, "There are so many people in the world doing bad things, I surely won't be caught."
In fact, not being caught just means no one has exposed you yet, but as long as you've done it, it's only a matter of time before you're exposed.
Thinking of this, Luo Quan began to feel fortunate that her usual conduct was quite good, and she hadn't even given anyone the chance to spread rumors.
The male artists who had gotten into trouble before were basically all because of the business in their pants.
And for female artists, besides the individual cases of tax evasion, cheating and two-timing actually accounted for the majority.
To put it bluntly, they were all just slaves to desire who possessed more wealth and status, and thus hoped to enjoy more sexual resources.
Many netizens asked, is it really that hard to keep your pants zipped?
The fact is, it is indeed quite hard. Many people shout about losing weight and quitting smoking, only to find they can't even quit their handiwork.
After all, these are the two most primitive desires hidden in human genes.
Appetite and sexual desire.
If it were really that easy to suppress, the human race probably wouldn't exist anymore.
Fortunately, Luo Quan was the type who could control herself relatively well.
After other female stars became famous, they would quickly have their middle school and college photos dug up by omnipotent netizens, which were often quite spectacular, giving the gossip-mongers infinite room for imagination.
But Luo Quan's middle school era could only be described as pure to the point of being white.
As for now, fans online all praised her for being so sexy, calling her the goddess in everyone's hearts, all wanting to marry her as their wife.
However, she had always been quite ascetic in reality.
She couldn't let go of her appetite because her figure needed to be controlled, but controlling her appetite was already quite exhausting for her.
As for the other thing, it was quite easy to control, after all, she had no interest in men.
Not to mention she had all kinds of props given by Seeing Wen Xia; it was simply a case of not needing to ask anyone for anything.
Of course, if others knew about this, she would probably be mocked to some extent.
She was already in her twenties, yet she was still a virgin.
By the time she reached thirty, she would probably be called an old maid.
The good news was that she had now become a Saintess, which could be considered a perfectly legitimate reason.
At least in the Universal Church, there was definitely no one who would laugh at her for this.
After all, maintaining chastity as a Saintess was the most normal thing in the world.
It was just that the starting point was different; people in the Universal Church must all think she was doing it for faith or some messy things like Holy Light, while she completely just didn't have any secular thoughts in that regard.
Therefore, in a situation where there was absolutely no way to catch wind or shadows, Luo Quan had really not had many people spread rumors about her private life so far.
What the haters said most was that she was pandering to men or skirting the rules.
But there were quite a lot of fans defending her; after all, if they scolded her until she quit the internet, who would be there to skirt the rules for everyone to see?
So Luo Quan's life was still quite comfortable; there were haters online, but few.
There were almost no rumors; there used to be a bunch, but basically, she had sent them all to the police station.
It's just that not all of these people who went to the police station were there because of rumors; there were other reasons as well.
But the fact that they went to jail was announced, and netizens wouldn't care about the details; they only knew that Luo Quan had dealt with everyone who offended her.
With this kind of psychological shadow, there really weren't many people who dared to touch her bad luck.
Of course, Luo Quan knew she wasn't entirely without stains.
Previously, while attending a wealthy person's banquet on the high seas, she played a few hands of Texas Hold'em and won a considerable amount of money.
Although the high seas weren't under domestic jurisdiction, it was ultimately a massive amount of gambling.
No one had exposed it yet, but who knew if anyone had recorded it at the time.
The scene of a straight flush being beaten by a royal flush was quite rare; who knows if someone had recorded it with their phone.
If it were a movie, her image as the God of Gamblers would be absolutely explosive, and with BGM, it would definitely be comparable to Chow Yun-fat.
But in reality, if she did that, the problem might be a bit big.
The only good news was that this had happened several years ago, but there hadn't been a single whisper of it.
It seemed no one had exposed it, and everyone was still quite law-abiding.
If this didn't count, then she probably didn't have any stains.
Thinking of this, Luo Quan couldn't help but smile proudly.
In the big dyeing vat of the entertainment industry, besides the artists in their company, there probably weren't many who had stuck to their original intentions for so many years.
No scandals, no messy relationships between men and women, a clean and healthy private life, not participating in any infighting or resource-grabbing, not dealing with any controversial figures or brands, and besides filming, basically staying at home surfing the internet, and not engaging in fan circles.
Listing all these advantages, those who knew would think she was a star in the entertainment industry, and those who didn't would think she was a saint.
Just as Luo Quan was feeling proud of the example she had set, Xiao Mao had already changed into her clothes and come out.
When they came shopping, Xiao Mao had been wearing her clothes.
Because their body types were quite different, when Xiao Mao wore them, there was a very obvious feeling of the fabric digging into her flesh around the waist, hips, and legs.
It looked truly too erotic, as if her figure was so good it was about to explode.
After changing into clothes of the right size, this feeling of digging into the flesh was relieved a lot.
The eroticism also turned into sexiness, but the overall look was much more harmonious.
The most important point was that Xiao Mao felt the flesh on her body was much more comfortable; the previous clothes were really too tight, and wearing them was truly quite uncomfortable.
"Boss, do you think this outfit looks good?"
After Xiao Mao came out, she spun around twice and asked Luo Quan with a grin.
She was wearing a white crop top and a pair of hot pants, looking full of youth, and it showed off her rounded arms and thighs very well.
Since losing weight, Xiao Mao had become much more confident, and her smiles were much more frequent than before.
This was probably the good mindset brought by beauty.
"Of course it looks good. Now, Xiao Mao, you're a plump beauty with a 100% head-turning rate." Luo Quan raised her phone and took a full-body photo of Xiao Mao.
"Pack all these clothes up." Seeing Wen Xia walked out looking satisfied, with the shopping assistant behind her holding a large pile of selected clothes. These were all picked out by her for Xiao Mao, which could be considered the spoils of this shopping trip.
As for the money, no one asked; after all, none of the three were short of money. No matter how expensive a few sets of clothes were, to them, it was just a number.
Although this shopping trip didn't quite go according to Seeing Wen Xia's wishes, Luo Quan was still quite satisfied.
She had achieved her goal, and there hadn't been any situations.
After buying clothes for Xiao Mao, Luo Quan bought a large pile of meat on the way.
To celebrate Xiao Mao's successful weight loss, Luo Quan planned to make fifteen dishes tonight—eight meat and four vegetable dishes, plus three soups—as a reward for her unremitting efforts over so many days.
No matter what happens in the future, at least tonight, she could eat to her heart's content!
Upon hearing this news, not only was Xiao Mao overjoyed, but the others were also cheering.
During this period, to cooperate with Xiao Mao's weight loss plan, everyone had been eating relatively light.
Having finally made it to Xiao Mao's successful weight loss, they could finally have a big meal tonight.
This dinner was probably the most enjoyable one everyone had had in nearly a month. Except for Luo Quan, everyone had also drunk quite a bit of alcohol.
So much so that after dinner, everyone was a bit dazed.
Leon had a very good tolerance for alcohol, and being relatively sober, he carried his wife and son back to their room.
The other women, fueled by the alcohol, directly hoisted Luo Quan up.
No one knew who it was, but someone grabbed a wine bottle and poured it into Luo Quan's mouth.
Luo Quan, whose body was restrained, had no room to dodge and was directly poured a full bottle.
Then, she told everyone why she didn't drink with a coma comparable to anesthesia. ===== CHAPTER 1176 =====
