Chapter 12: Mindset

The car was driving on the road, and Ye Xue looked at her younger brother and said, “Ye Xuan, when I went upstairs just now, I had a secret conversation with your little girlfriend. Do you want to know what I said?”

Ye Xuan corrected her, “Sis, I’ve told you before, she’s not my girlfriend. She’s just a good friend. Let’s not say things like that when Mengli is around.”

Ye Xue was puzzled. “Why? Isn’t it beneficial for the development of your relationship? Don’t you want her to be your girlfriend?”

Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said, “Su Mengli is very outstanding. In the future, she will shine brightly. But do I really deserve someone like her?”

Ye Xue smiled and said, “Who knows what the future holds? She may shine brightly, but as my brother Ye Xuan, you are no less deserving!”

After hearing his sister’s words, Ye Xuan suddenly snapped back to reality. Yes, Su Mengli was indeed exceptional, but what about himself? Was he really that inferior?

In his previous life, there was an absolute difference between him and Su Mengli. One was an empress who ruled a country while the other was just an ordinary soldier—a huge gap.

That’s why after being reborn, Ye Xuan only wanted to cling to powerful figures and improve his relationship with Su Mengli. The thought of pursuing girls never crossed his mind.

Even though Su Mengli was currently in a pitiful state and faced various grievances.

But in Ye Xuan’s eyes, she always had that aura of a future empress that made her shine brightly and stand high above others.

And now, Ye Xuan suddenly realized that he already possessed an A-class Indestructible Body talent.

Perhaps when spiritual energy returns and his favorability reaches 70 points, his talent would advance to the next level and reach S-class.

At that time, even though he still couldn’t compare to Su Mengli, he would be considered a rare talent.

And that was far from his limit. As long as he continued to work hard, it was possible for Ye Xuan’s talent to reach SSS-rank!

Moreover, this was just one genius—Su Mengli. What if he bound with other geniuses? How much further could Ye Xuan improve? Surpassing limits? Becoming an unprecedented existence?

In an instant, Ye Xuan felt a bit floaty. Perhaps his future self would become the savior of all humanity!

On the other hand, during their time together, Ye Xuan genuinely felt sorry for this girl.

He hoped that in her future, he could personally participate and share in her joys and sorrows instead of letting others embrace her.

With these thoughts in mind, Ye Xuan was full of fighting spirit. From today onwards, his approach towards Su Mengli would no longer be solely about pleasing or clinging to her.

He wanted to pursue her and make her his wife, giving birth to three or five children in the future!

The next morning, after bidding farewell to his parents, Ye Xuan left early for his sister’s house.

Although he could see Su Mengli every day these past few days, seeing her again still made Ye Xuan’s eyes light up.

Without any makeup on her face, she had flawless skin without any blemishes. She looked gentle and delicate with her three thousand strands of black hair accentuating her charm. Unfortunately, her school uniform concealed her figure.

Ye Xuan observed Su Mengli for a few seconds before making her blush. She lowered her head shyly and asked, “What are you looking at?”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Nothing. We’re going to buy daily necessities today, right? It might be inconvenient to wear a school uniform. Don’t you think?”

“But when I came over, I was in a hurry and didn’t bring any other clothes.”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “It’s okay. Let’s go buy some clothes.”

Su Mengli hesitated and said, “Is it really okay? It might cost quite a bit of money.”

Ye Xuan directly replied, “Don’t worry about it. Consider it borrowing from me. I believe in you. You will definitely shine brightly in the future. This amount of money is nothing!”

Su Mengli was stunned and said, “Shine brightly? It seems so far away for me.”

Ye Xuan looked at the future empress with a dazed expression and found it amusing.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t take out his phone to capture this moment; otherwise, these photos would definitely become popular after the Red Lotus Empress became famous.

“Anyway, don’t think too much about it. It’s just a few pieces of clothing,” Ye Xuan reassured her.

Su Mengli thought that Ye Xuan made sense. After all, she already lived in a million-dollar house. What did a few pieces of clothing matter?

However, she felt like she owed him more and more with each passing day. Should she just give herself completely to him?

As she entertained such thoughts, Su Mengli blushed inexplicably and then followed Ye Xuan out to buy clothes!

Ye Xuan took Su Mengli to Hongxing Erke (a clothing store). The store was crowded with customers, and all the fitting rooms were occupied.

So Ye Xuan simply estimated Su Mengli’s figure and picked out seven or eight sets of clothes before heading straight to the checkout counter.

Su Mengli looked surprised and asked, “Why are you buying so many? Can I fit into all of them?”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry. If you can’t fit into them all at once, you can wear them gradually. Besides, Hongxing Erke is not like those foreign brands. It’s cost-effective. These sets of clothes don’t cost much when added together.”

In total, there were seven or eight sets of clothes that amounted to just over two thousand yuan. Compared to those foreign brands, it was indeed a much better deal.

Su Mengli saw Ye Xuan’s firm attitude and didn’t dwell on it anymore. However, because the store was too crowded, they could only go home to change clothes.

Su Mengli carried the clothes back to her room while Ye Xuan let her choose a set she liked.
After more than ten minutes, Su Mengli finally came out. Ye Xuan looked at the refreshed Su Mengli and was momentarily stunned.

The school uniform really suppressed her figure. Now, Su Mengli wore a white sports short-sleeved shirt that revealed her slender arms and delicate collarbone with a deep groove below it.

She wore denim shorts on her lower body, revealing her slim waist and long straight legs—her fair calves were even thinner than Ye Xuan’s arms.

And Su Mengli’s figure wasn’t just slim; it had developed in all the right places—full breasts and perky buttocks with perfect curves.

In short, the current Su Mengli gave off an impeccable impression!

One point fatter would be plump; one point thinner would be slim—a figure like this was truly flawless.

Su Mengli looked at Ye Xuan with wide eyes as his heart raced uncontrollably. She hesitated for a moment before asking, “Can I wear this set?”

Ye Xuan replied directly, “Of course you can. It’s more than just okay—it’s perfect. Let’s go.”

The two of them left together. As they entered the elevator, their hands accidentally touched each other. Su Mengli blushed instantly and quickly retracted her hand.

Then, the elevator door closed, leaving only Ye Xuan and Su Mengli inside. Ye Xuan gathered his courage and found the position of Su Mengli’s small hand, hitting the mark.

This time, Su Mengli blushed all the way to her ears. Her heart raced as she felt both shy and a hint of joy.

Finally, when the elevator door opened, a stranger was waiting outside. The boy and girl were startled, and their hands immediately separated…
