Mu Chen really needed to find an Indian person who spoke Spanish. There was only one market in this group of islands, where daily necessities, clothing, jewelry and more were sold. Residents from the nearby dozens of small islands would come here to buy things. The morning was busier than the afternoon; the entire street dedicated to clothes had very few people around, giving Gu Baby plenty of time to browse. They could stay until the evening when the market closed.
"Isn't it pretty" Gu Baby showed Mu Chen a silk dress in royal blue. It was a half-length skirt with one side mini and the other long and flowing. The pure blue was very beautiful, especially as she walked around. If a girl were tall enough, this kind of dress would look great on her; even if she were shorter, it could still look good as long as she wore something appropriate on top.
"It's nice. I remember you designed one similar to this before, but with sequins on the belt," Mu Chen said with a smile. He had no idea that he was stepping into a minefield.
Gu Baby asked seriously, "Have you seen my design"
"Yes, Wu Shuang bought one and it sold well." Mu Chen replied without understanding why Gu Baby was being so serious.
If that's the case, isn't that good
Gu Baby frowned and said, "After seeing their design, I realized how vulgar mine is. It’s not pure at all, and my color isn’t as vivid. They added a flowing design here, which makes it look more graceful when they walk."
Mox晨, "..."
Wife, is it because you set the bar too high
But back then, Wu Shuang only wore those clothes a few times before deciding that they lacked design elements and thus didn't wear them anymore. Of course, Moxing wouldn't say this to Gu Babu; otherwise, she might get even more serious.
After all, he had to compliment his wife’s designs.
Moxing smiled gently, "If you think they look good, just buy them."
Gu Babu nodded and turned her head to ask, "Did you bring money"
"I did. You can buy as much as you want," Moxing said with a smile. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance; unlike Mo Xiaobai, who was just acting on impulse, Moxing knew that Gu Babu would definitely buy things here. The island didn’t accept checks and only used paper money and gold for transactions, so he brought enough paper money to allow Gu Babu to go wild shopping if she wanted to. After hesitating briefly, Gu Babu bought eight items in one go.
Skirts of various lengths, dresses, shirts, and unique accessories—she noticed that no one was selling pants, almost everything was skirts made from a single material like chiffon or georgette, but the designs were very distinctive and aesthetically pleasing.
Gu Babbo saw the items as if they were treasures, and Mo Chen couldn’t help but remind her, "Babbo, actually there are even better-looking ones at the next store. We can look around more. Buying so much from just one place means we won't be able to carry it all."
Gu Babbo thought about it and agreed, then took Mo Chen shopping again.
After visiting four stores, they had bought over twenty items. Although Mo Chen had warned her before, Gu Babbo couldn’t resist taking pictures of a few more, even though she didn't buy them because the amount was too much. She picked out her favorites and unique pieces, and took photos of all the rest.
She planned to study them later.
Seeing that Gu Babbo’s interest was still high, Mo Chen didn’t dampen her spirits but asked jokingly, "What are you going to do with those pictures Copy them"
"Nonsense, I wouldn't copy anything," protested Gu Babbo. She explained, "I’m just taking them back for reference. Mimicking is not the same as copying. I’ll add my own elements. Such styles won’t sell well in Europe and America because they are unpopular there. If you don’t add something new to it, how will anyone buy it"
Mo Chen’s forehead felt three lines of black from her explanation. Whatever his wife said was fine.
The couple had finished browsing through the market after buying nearly forty outfits. Mo Chen couldn't carry them all and suggested, "Why don’t you take your clothes on the plane I’ll stay here to take more pictures."
The island's folkways were simple and kind, so Mo Chen had no worries. He only told him not to wander around recklessly. He would take the clothes back first before coming again. It wouldn't take more than fifteen minutes round trip. Gu Babbo wasn’t very proficient in Spanish, but she could still speak and understand simple phrases such as “hello” or “how much is this piece of clothing” So, having a translator around was not an issue at all. Coincidentally, the translator also knew some French, so while they couldn't communicate smoothly, gestures and short phrases were still enough to get by.
Mo Chen put all the clothes in the helicopter and took out more money. With Gu Babbo buying so much stuff, the wallet could only hold a limited amount of cash, which was why his main objective when returning was actually getting more money That way, he wouldn’t be embarrassed if she bought something else and he had no money to pay for it.
But who would’ve thought that as soon as he returned from the distance, he didn’t see Gu Babbo. Not even a trace of the translator was visible. Mo Chen's heart sank; in panic, he asked the woman at the stall using gestures where Gu Babbo had gone. The woman explained half-heartedly and pointed him in some direction. When Mo Chen got anxious, he followed that direction to look for Gu Babbo. However, not even a trace of her was visible.
"Babbo..." Mo Chen shouted. There were many stalls selling clothes at the market but it wasn’t chaotic. With no other choice, Mo Chen searched instinctively and anxiously for Gu Babbo since he was unfamiliar with the place and feared something might have happened to her.
"Babbo…" He had already visited every clothing stall but still didn't see Gu Babbo. Mo Chen was sweating from anxiety; there were also few people who could speak Spanish, so Mo Chen couldn’t find anyone to ask for help.
After searching for nearly twenty minutes, he returned dejectedly to the original spot, only to vaguely hear Gu Babbo's voice, sounding very anxious. Hearing this, Mo Chen quickly ran towards her; she was already in sight.
Mo Chen was extremely angry. He thought about what would happen if she got lost on an unfamiliar island or encountered pirates and bad people. What if something happened to her Just thinking of these possibilities made his heart burn with anger, so he rushed over, grabbed Gu Babbo’s shoulders, and shouted fiercely, "Didn't I tell you to wait here for me Where did you go You can’t communicate properly here and don’t know anyone. If you got lost or something happened, how could I find you What do I do if anything happens to you Tell me where I should look for you! Ah, speak up! Didn't I only tell you to wait a few minutes Why did you run around randomly You are also terrible with directions. What if I can’t find you Do you know how worried and scared I was just now"
His eyes were red as he shouted; Gu Babbo was stunned by his barrage of questions, as this was the first time she saw Mo Chen so angry. Initially, she had been upset about being scolded without reason but now could only defend herself meekly like a little rabbit: "I just... went to use the restroom."n how to play guitar. Suddenly, several fishing boats returned. The women waiting by the seaside waved their hands in歡呼,前幾天出海的漁民們回來了。Wushuang wasn't particularly concerned at first; the weather had be...
