Although Zhao Defang had returned to the modern world, because he still maintained the age of 16 years old in the Song Dynasty, compared to the him in the modern world, his body seemed a little thin.
Not only that, he used to be 1.8 meters tall. Now, although he had not measured his height, he estimated that being 1.7 meters tall was already considered to be a "big one among the dwarves" among his peers.
At this moment, he was wearing the clothes he used to live in the modern world. His small frame supported the large clothes, making people feel uncomfortable no matter how they looked at him. At least he lived a comfortable life in the Song Dynasty. His meals were all imperial food in the palace. Besides practicing Taiji Fist in the morning, there were no other sports for him to participate in.
She ate a lot of food, but she did very little exercise. In this short month, she had put on some weight. It was only by relying on his slightly plump figure that he could barely support the suit he was wearing. Otherwise, it would really be unbearable to look at.
Not long after she left the villa, Zhao Defang realized that the dragon-shaped jade pendant hanging around her neck was facing backward. Since he had lived in the Song Dynasty for nearly a month, he wanted to experience the atmosphere of modern society again, so he adjusted the dragon-shaped jade pendant so that it faced forward.
It was also at this time that Zhao Defang lost his ability to become invisible and pass through objects. At this moment, it was the peak hour of the day, and the road he couldn't take had a lot of people coming and going to work. The seemingly inconspicuous Zhao Defang was drowned in the bustling crowd.
However, after Zhao Defang experienced the modern society for less than five minutes, he noticed something unusual. More and more people would turn around and look at him when they passed by him. There was a smile on their faces, and then they turned around and walked away.
At first, Zhao Defang, who had been away from this modern metropolis for twenty-seven years, was too busy looking around to notice the funny looks that others cast at him. However, after his curiosity had passed and he regained his senses, he realized that his incongruous attire had definitely become a laughing stock for everyone he met.
Zhao Defang, who was already thin-skinned, could not withstand others looking at her like this. Therefore, Zhao Defang pulled down the brim of the slightly larger British canvas hat to cover half of her face as much as possible. At the same time, she also covered her eyes, afraid that others would see her face clearly. Of course, he was also afraid of seeing others laugh at him.
To describe it with a very inappropriate idiom, he was really deceiving himself at this moment.
To the embarrassed Zhao Defang, he really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and hide. However, it was broad daylight. Other than the well covers that he could see every two to three hundred meters, he was afraid that he would not be able to find any underground holes without covers.
When he left the villa, Zhao Defang thought that he would go straight to the shop that sold the items he needed. Once he bought them, he would quickly leave this modern world that no longer belonged to him and return to the time and space of the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty when he was the King of Qin.
What he did not expect was that his attire immediately attracted the attention of the passers-by. If he pretended to walk as if nothing had happened under the sharp eyes of the passers-by, how much courage and thick skin would he need? Obviously, Zhao Defang's face was thinner than the window paper. How could he withstand the strange gazes of the passers-by who passed by him?
Therefore, he quickly adjusted his original plan. At this moment, he needed to go to a clothing store and buy a set of clothes that fit him. Therefore, he quickened his pace and went to the clothing store in Wangjiahui that he often visited when he was in high school. The clothes worn by young people were suitable for him now.
After all, Zhao Defang was only a sixteen-year-old child. The style of wearing a suit and leather shoes really did not match his young age and body.
Fortunately, ever since he went to Yanjing University thousands of miles away and traveled thousands of miles to the United States to leave samples, although he had long passed the age of wearing high school clothes, his memory was not very bad. He still remembered the clothes he often wore in high school.
After walking for a long time in a place with few people, Zhao Defang entered a clothing store that she had not been to for nearly ten years. Fortunately, ten years had passed, and the clothing store was still there. It had not moved with the passage of time. Ever since he graduated from high school, he had never stepped into this clothing store again.
However, when Zhao Defang walked into the store, what made him sigh was that the young and beautiful girls in the clothing store ten years ago had now been replaced by women. What he couldn't figure out was that so many years had passed. Other people were getting older day by day, but he had regained his youth.
"Handsome, do you have any clothes you like?
If there was, he could try it in the fitting room.”Just as Zhao Defang was standing in front of the clothes rack in the clothing store in a daze, a familiar yet very unfamiliar sweet yet somewhat mature mezzo-soprano suddenly sounded beside his ear.
" Oh, just this set of clothes," asked a mature female salesperson with a full bust and a wide waist. Zhao Defang, who was still in a daze, suddenly woke up. He turned his head and pointed at a casual suit hanging on the hanger in front of him.
Zhao Defang, who had lived in this bustling metropolis for more than 20 years, had never developed the habit of shopping. Sometimes, he would stand on the curb of the crowded pedestrian street and look at the young men and women who came and went shopping in groups of two or three in front of him with big and small bags of trophies in their hands. He couldn't figure out why they would only buy a few clothes or other items that they liked after shopping for more than half a day in the major shopping malls and specialty stores. It made him feel a little unbelievable.
In his opinion, as long as the clothes did not look particularly ugly and fit him, he could just buy them. He felt that rather than wasting his time shopping, he might as well do something meaningful for himself. For example, playing games at home for a day was not bad.
What he didn't know was that for those people he didn't understand, shopping was a meaningful thing in their lives. What he didn't know was that in the eyes of many people, he, a gaming otaku, had wasted a day playing games.
Zhao Defang, who had never been picky about food or clothes, only glanced at the casual suit on the hanger in front of her after hearing the female salesperson's question. She had not even tried it on to see if it fit. She had already decided to buy this casual suit.
After the female salesperson took down the casual suit that he was pointing at, he took it from the female salesperson's hand without saying anything and walked to the fitting room not far away.
In just a moment, when he walked out of the fitting room, he first stood in front of the mirror embedded in the fitting room and took a look. He felt that the casual suit he was wearing in the mirror still fit him. As for whether it looked good or not, he did not care too much about it and paid for it.
Speaking of payment, he had to mention that it was all thanks to him wearing a slightly baggy suit today. This was because this suit was the one he wore when he returned to the antique market a month ago to pay off his debt. When he came back, he did not have time to take out his wallet from his suit pocket before he rushed back. Therefore, he paid for the casual suit.
Otherwise, he, who was now performing the acrobatics of the young prince of Great Song on the other side of the cave in his backyard, might really be treated as a customer who had dined and dash. As for the various consequences that this would bring, Zhao Defang really did not dare to think about it anymore.
Ever since Zhao Defang walked out of the fitting room, she had put on the casual suit she had just bought. After paying, she knocked the fat suit she was originally wearing into the clothing bag and left the clothing store. She raised the brim of her hat and swaggered back to the road.
However, what Zhao Defang couldn't figure out was why he didn't attract the attention of so many passers-by when he was wearing such a fat suit back then. As for the old lobby manager, appraiser, and boss of the antique shop, none of them laughed at him. These strange things made him somewhat puzzled.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Defang was still puzzled. Since he couldn't solve the doubts in his heart, he might as well not think about these things that wasted his brain cells.
When he came back to his senses, he raised his head and looked at the shop not far away. He saw that there was a shop about three to four meters away from him that sold items that he was in a hurry to use. His eyes immediately lit up.
Zhao Defang, who was a little unhappy just now, had a happy expression on her face at this moment. She strode towards this shop that seemed to be deserted and said happily to herself, It didn't take much effort to find it.
When he walked two meters away from the door of the shop, he looked up and felt that the exterior design of the shop was quite tasteful. In just a moment, nearly 20 people had passed by him, but not a single person had come to this shop. Not to mention walking into the shop to take a look, the number of people who turned their heads to look at the shop could be counted on one hand.
After all, this was a pedestrian street with a lot of people in this bustling city. Even though it was peak hour, there were still so many young men and women coming to shop. From this, one could see how important this location was. In other words, the rent for this shop was not cheap.
The rent was so expensive, but no one cared about this shop. This made Zhao Defang want to retreat. From the signboard hanging on the door of this shop, all the things he sold were what he had risked his life to come here for. However, after seeing this scene, he couldn't move forward.
Whether to enter or not was indeed a very big problem for Zhao Defang at this moment!
