I Bought It

Lu Suo looked through the cute and fluffy dolls, but he did not like any of them. He shook his head.

Song Yujin decided to visit another store.

Some time passed.

The two of them had visited five shops in total.

Suddenly, Lu Suo saw a doll in the claw machine.

!!

“Look at that red panda.”

“Do you like it?”

Lu Suo tilted his head.

Yes, but it won’t be easy to obtain.”

“I’ll do my best.”

Song Yujin put some coins into the claw machine and began playing.

After failing several times, Lu Suo said, “Let me give it a try.”

Song Yujin gave Lu Suo the rest of his coins.

Lu Suo played multiple times but also failed to get the red panda. He pursed his lips and said, “Nevermind. I don’t want it. There are still other dolls.”

After saying that, Lu Suo pulled Song Yujin to the store next door. At last, he chose a little lion plushie.

Song Yujin looked at the time.

‘Class is about to start.’

A student who passed by called out to them. In the end, they decided to return together.

As usual, Song Yujin stayed quiet. Lu Suo was not in the mood either. Fortunately, the other students were willing to talk. Hence, the atmosphere livened up a bit.

“That little lion is so cute.”

One of them reached out to touch Lu Suo’s plushie.

Lu Suo immediately moved away.

“Don’t touch it. My brother bought it for me.”

“Your brother is so good to you, unlike mine. He only annoys me!”

Lu Suo laughed. He also felt that Song Yujin was a good brother.

‘I won’t let anyone snatch him away!’

Shortly after, they arrived at their classroom.

Lu Suo placed the little lion on his lap.

That afternoon was relatively peaceful. Lu Suo did not go to look for Su Xing or sleep.

When school ended, Song Yujin watched as Lu Suo got into the car. Suddenly, he asked, “Want some ice cream?”

Lu Suo nodded. Which child could resist ice cream?

“I’ll go buy it.”

“I want to go too.”

“No. Just wait here.”

Lu Suo complied and waited obediently.

Song Yujin went back to the store with the red panda. He asked the shopkeeper, “May I buy the red panda in that claw machine?”

The shopkeeper was a young and pretty woman.

‘This child is so cute and polite.’

The shopkeeper bent down and smiled at Song Yujin.

“Sorry. You can only obtain it through the claw machine. Exchange for some coins and give it a try. I believe you can do it.”

“I’ve tried, but failed.”

Song Yujin continued, “Can I buy it first? The next time I win, I won’t take the prize.”

The shopkeeper was a little hesitant.

Song Yujin looked at her, waiting for a reply.

After thinking for a while, the shopkeeper compromised.

“Alright, but you have to patronize my store in the future!”

“Thank you.”

The shopkeeper opened the claw machine using a key. Then, she took out a red panda.

Song Yujin thanked the shopkeeper again.

“You’re welcome.”

The shopkeeper was all smiles.

Song Yujin also bought three ice creams before leaving.

When Lu Suo saw Song Yujin, he asked, “What took you so long?”

“Here you go.”

After getting into the car, Song Yujin took out the red panda from his bag.

“You actually caught it?”

Lu Suo was surprised.

Song Yujin shook his head and replied honestly, “No. I bought it.”
