Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 787 - 15.6



"Then, that means you need better clothes. Of course, I won\'t let my customer see you with that dirty clothes of yours. You also need a shower, and you shouldn\'t be sleeping on the street because you might get sick and miss a day of work. I don\'t want that."

Han Shun\'s smile dimmed instantly after he heard the requirement from Bai Gege. Of course, he couldn\'t meet those criteria because he didn\'t have money to buy any spare clothes. He could barely eat a day, let alone afford spare clothes. He also couldn\'t stay in anyone\'s house to sleep because he was a street rat. He was used to sleeping at the side of the road. 

Han Shun lowered his head again and smiled bitterly, "Um… I don\'t think I can buy spare clothes, Bai Gege. I don\'t think I can work here. I\'m sorry for disappointing you, Bai Gege."

"I haven\'t finished talking, you kid," Bai Yunyu let out a small chuckle. "Do you think I will reject you just because you don\'t have spare clothes and no place to stay?"

The silence in Han Shun basically confirmed the worry in his heart. He felt so little and undeserving. Even as an eighth-year-old kid, he was already self-aware of his status as a street rat, unwanted by anyone. 

Bai Shijue sighed and walked towards the front door, "Come with me. I will give you an errand."

"Y—Yes, Bai Gege…" Han Shun followed Bai Gege, who suddenly left the tea shop and closed the door. 

Bai Shijue walked around the city in the morning aimlessly. Han Shun followed in silence, but he continued questioning in his head.

Unable to curb his curiosity, he asked, "Um… Bai Gege, do you want to buy something? I can help if you want to find a store…."

"That would be your new errand then, lead me to the nearest tailor. I need to buy a new spare of clothes."

"Oh, I know the place, Gege!" Han Shun was so happy that he could be useful for Bai Gege. He lived in the street for one year and had walked from one place to another to find food. Of course, he was familiar with almost all the corners of Xun city. 

He led Bai Gege to a small tailor shop with an old man sitting on a chair while sewing a set of robes with a big, old sewing machine made out of wood.

"This is the place, Bai Gege! The owner is experienced and really good with his work! You won\'t be disappointed!" Han Shun said, promoting the old tailor to Bai Shijue.

Bai Shijue smiled and approached the old tailor, "Excuse me, Uncle. Can you take an order for two sets of male robes?" 

The old tailor turned his head towards Bai Shijue\'s direction and was awed by the gorgeousness of the young man. He even forgot to breathe. 

Bai Shijue frowned. He remembered that he had masked his real beauty, so none of the mortals would be shocked by his face. But it didn\'t seem to be enough. 

Thankfully, there weren\'t many people in the morning, so he didn\'t give a random heart attack to passersby. 

[Aiya, the grievance of a handsome man like me. I might give this old man a heart attack for being too gorgeous~.]

[Pupa: That means you need to make your face really ugly, so you won\'t shock anyone.]

[But they might get shocked by my ugly face instead.]

[Pupa: Yeah, that\'s better.]

[Pupa, if you have a personal problem with me, just say it. We will settle our battle in bed!]

[Pupa:…]

It took a while for the old man to finally regain his calm, and he shook his head, "A-Ah, yes, what kind of robe do you want and what color, Young man?"

Bai Shijue suddenly grabbed Han Shun\'s arm and pulled him to stand in front of the old tailor, "For this kid. Please make two robes that would fit him."

"Eh? For me?!" Han Shun looked up immediately. He was confused about what Bai Gege meant with this. 

Bai Gege smiled at him and patted his shoulder, "You need at least two robes in high quality because you will be working in my tea shops. Make sure to clean it often so it wouldn\'t smell, okay?"

"B—But, it\'s expensive—"

"Let\'s just say I give it to you as a welcome gift because you will be working with me soon," Bai Shijue said. 

Han Shun was speechless. He didn\'t expect Bai Gege to buy him two expensive robes so that he could start working in the tea shop.

The old tailor saw the kid was scrawny, smelly, and dirty. He was probably a street rat, but since the gorgeous man said that he wanted to buy this scrawny boy two sets of robes, then so be it, it was business after all."

"Boy, go and pick two colors of the robe that you want," the old tailor pointed at the rows of fabric draped in various colors. 

Han Shun hesitated and looked at Bai Gege, asking whether he could pick or not. Bai Shijue pointed at the fabric and said, "Pick two of your favorite color. Don\'t hesitate."

"T—Thank you, Gege…." Han Shun looked from left to right, this was his first time ever picking a color, and he got confused because he thought every color looked nice. 

Until he stumbled upon the last color on the furthest left of the rows of fabric, it was a jet black color. 

For some reason, Han Shun gravitated towards that color only. After making up his mind, he returned to Bai Gege and reported, "Um, Gege, I want that one—" he said as he pointed at the jet black color.

Bai Shijue raised his brow because that color shouldn\'t be attractive to a kid, but since Han Shun liked that, why not.

"Okay, and what\'s the second one?"

"Also that one," Han Shun said, still pointing at the jet-black color.

"You want two of the same color?" 

"Mm." Han Shun nodded without hesitation. 

"Okay then," Bai Shijue turned his head to the old tailor. "Can you make two black robes for him?" 

"Yes, sure thing," the old tailor nodded. "Come here, kid. Let me measure your size first."

The old tailor frowned slightly when he measured Han Shun because of the stench. But he kept being professional. He still didn\'t understand why a superbly gorgeous man like this person wanted to give two expensive robes to a street kid.

After the measuring was done, the old tailor said, "It will take about one week because I have other orders, but I have readily made robe for this kid\'s size. I will give you half the original price. How is it?" 

Han Shun\'s eyes widened. He thought it was ridiculous that Bai Gege would have to buy another robe after ordering two for him. So he carefully pulled the hem of Bai Gege\'s robe and shook his head, "Too expensive, Gege…."

"I\'ll take two of those readily made robes," Bai Shijue said without hesitation. 

"Perfect," the old tailor got up to take the readily made robe for Han Shun.

"Gege… it\'s too much…" Han Shun said. He was scared that he wouldn\'t be able to pay everything back even if he worked until he was old.

"I\'m not lacking in wealth. Don\'t worry about it.. If you want to pay me back, you should be working hard and studying seriously under my tutelage."
