66. Changing Clothes
Honestly, Yan Chuyue’s body hadn’t recovered that much. She was only able to get out of bed thanks to a pill. She did so because of a small surge of excitement.
Yes.
Her own brother had turned into a woman, and not just any woman, but a little girl.
Well now, this was interesting. Her brother turning into a little girl, could there be anything more exciting?
And since Gong Yiling didn’t have any suitable clothes, the only thing to do now was to take her little sister to a clothing store.
“You, you, you…” Seeing the strange glint in Yan Chuyue’s eyes, Gong Yiling couldn’t help but take a few steps back, until she was cornered by the mirror.
“It’s nothing. Just a little stroll outside.”
“Can I refuse?” Gong Yiling asked. “Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to walk around like this?”
Yan Chuyue smiled and shook her head. “Brother, I haven’t completely forgiven you yet. Unless you go out with me.”
Gong Yiling blinked. “But you just said?”
Yan Chuyue immediately retorted, “Who cares? Am I angry or are you angry?”
Well… since she put it that way, what could she say?
“Then… alright?”
As she said this, Gong Yiling certainly couldn’t have imagined what would happen in the next few dozen minutes.
If she had, she would have never gone out with this girl. It was a truly frustrating experience.

Yan Chuyue needed urgent treatment, so after leaving the Hundred Ghosts Ridge, they immediately went to the territory of the Youhan Dynasty, Molan City.
This city was in the northern part of the Youhan Dynasty, not far from the border of the Baiyao Dynasty.
During the war between the two countries, despite the barrier of the Hundred Ghosts Ridge, this border town was a definite target.
However, later, the Youhan Dynasty and the Baiyao Dynasty probably felt that fighting across such a large mountain was pointless, and both countries were in a state of internal turmoil. So, they resumed trade and basically stopped fighting openly.
Thus, this border town, due to its unique geographical advantage, became a place of both military and commercial prosperity.
One of the Ghost Physician Feng Lili’s stops when she traveled was here, which was why she had brought them to Molan City first.
The streets of Molan City were filled with hurried merchants and mercenaries who made a living by killing beasts and bandits in the mountains.
In this busy street, a person who was completely out of place naturally attracted a lot of attention.
As for this out-of-place person, it was, of course, Gong Yiling.
Before they left, Yan Chuyue had used her rare hairstyling skills to give Gong Yiling the simplest hairstyle, pigtails.
Yes, in this world, you rarely saw anyone with this hairstyle. The main reason was that most hairstyles were either elaborate updos or just left down.
No one would style their hair to the sides.
So, when Gong Yiling walked down the street, everyone immediately noticed this strange but perfectly matching hairstyle for her petite figure.
And Miss Gong wasn’t even wearing her veil.
Such a childish and beautiful face, combined with everything else, created a stunningly young girl.
Good heavens, this girl was already so beautiful. What would she be like when she grew up?
Hearing the people around her commenting on her, Gong Yiling sighed helplessly and gently tugged at Yan Chuyue’s sleeve. “Chuyue, am I being too conspicuous?”
“Please, you’re just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old loli. Are you worried about what they’ll do to you?” Yan Chuyue suppressed her laughter and comforted her. “Alright, don’t overthink it. It’s a good thing people are looking at you. It means our Yiling is really pretty.”
—Do you want a beating?
Gong Yiling almost blurted it out.
But the other person was not only her sister, but also the one she had to apologize to, and a major patient. How could she possibly hit someone with so many buffs?
“I think you’re playing me, and I have evidence.”
Although she said this, Gong Yiling still followed Yan Chuyue.
Until they reached a clothing store.
“Ah, this?” Gong Yiling’s eyebrows twitched. “This is what you meant by ‘a stroll’?”
“Don’t you have any clothes that fit?” Yan Chuyue had a “I’ve got you” expression. She pointed at the oversized robe. “You can’t just wrap yourself in this when you go out. You have to buy some nice clothes.”
Well, she had a point.
When she had forced Qiu Shui and Chun Lian to buy clothes, it was because she felt they couldn’t just wear their maid uniforms all the time. They should have other clothes.
“Mmm…” Gong Yiling nodded. “Then I’ll just buy a few.”
This “just a few”… was just a casual remark.
She had originally planned to just buy a few for emergencies, to avoid having to go out naked in a large cloak. But Yan Chuyue had other ideas.
About ten minutes later, when Gong Yiling walked into the main hall, wearing the clothes Yan Chuyue had personally chosen for her, she felt something was not right.
Well, not that exaggerated.
It was just that this set of clothes was a complete departure from her usual style of black, red, or occasionally pure white. It was a color she would probably never have worn in her life.
Pink.
Yes, you heard that right. Light pink.
The entire dress was a combination of white and light pink, with ubiquitous tassels and cute-style ribbons, completely transforming Gong Yiling, the Young Palace Master of a demonic sect.
Now, looking at this girl, her black eyes sparkled with a lively light, and the cute pigtails, combined with the equally cute clothes, made her look like an innocent and ethereal little girl from a celestial sect.
In short, there was nothing wrong with the clothes.
But seeing Yan Chuyue laughing so hard she couldn’t close her mouth, Gong Yiling still felt something was wrong, but she couldn’t pinpoint what it was.
—How could this guy feel the perverted pleasure of dressing his brother up as a cute little pink thing?
