My Best Friend is Actually a Cat-eared Maid at a Cafe! – Chapter 276

Chapter 276 Chapter 274: Basketball Game Preparations Begin
On the way home, Xiaomuqing puffed out her cheeks in annoyance, not even wanting to talk to Ye Ziming.
It wasn’t for any other reason, she was just angry that he had embarrassed her in front of Zhang Xiaoling and many other girls.
PS: As the three interacted, the girls in the dance studio gradually emerged, accidentally getting a mouthful of dog food.
“Hmph! Don’t think a pack of cookies can buy me off!”
“Two packs.”
“…Still no!”
“Plus an ice cream.”
“Um…”
“I’ll treat you to bubble tea after the basketball game tomorrow.”
Upon returning home, Ye Ziming spent some time easily coaxing Xiaomuqing into a good mood, and they even played games together for a while.
Late at night, Xiaomuqing, as usual, climbed into his bed early, warming the quilt and waiting for him to sleep together.
Tonight, she was still feeling guilty because before sleeping, she had checked the school forum.
Once she looked, it was a disaster. Although her post had been deleted, its content was screenshotted and discussed everywhere.
For a moment, Ye Ziming became a ‘scumbag,’ and she and ‘she’ became the two ‘victims’ of his scumbaggery.
“Boss, I want to ask you a question.”
Xiaomuqing lay obediently in the quilt. Seeing her good brother sit on the bed, she turned her head and winked at him.
“Speak.”
Hearing Xiaomuqing’s voice, Ye Ziming paused his actions briefly, turned and glanced at her with a subtle expression.
“It’s just that, if there was someone, who accidentally caused your reputation to have… um… a small problem.”
She cautiously poked half of her head out, hiding the rest in the quilt, clutching the blanket tightly with her small hands, and asked haltingly.
She felt guilty and a little flustered, afraid her good brother would suddenly pounce on her and spank her on the bed.
Besides fear, she was also a little nervous, and even a tiny bit… excited.
After whispering, Xiaomuqing tensed her butt and retracted her legs, the image of being spanked already playing in her mind.
“A small problem?”
First, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, then slowly narrowed his eyes. Ye Ziming’s expression became even more subtle.
“Mmm-hmm, just a very small problem.”
Hiding in the quilt, she nodded and stretched out one small hand, gesturing “a little bit” in front of her good brother.

Looking into Xiaomuqing’s eyes, after about two seconds, Ye Ziming slowly revealed a friendly smile and gently petted her head.
Then he asked dotingly, “Is your butt itching again?”
“No… no! I’m sleepy, turn off the light and let’s sleep.”
Hearing this, Xiaomuqing quickly denied it while rapidly shrinking back into the quilt, covering her entire head with the blanket.
Xiaomuqing: *Whimper, whimper, the post has been deleted, my good brother shouldn’t know it was my ‘good deed,’ right?*
Beside her, Ye Ziming looked at the small bulge, his eyes shifting.
Reputation? He felt there was definitely something fishy going on, and it was no small matter, judging by Xiaomuqing’s reactions.
In other words, if Xiaomuqing hadn’t mentioned it, Ye Ziming would never have proactively inquired about anything.
But since it had been brought up, Ye Ziming began to think about asking Lin Wenbin, the “information broker,” what had happened tomorrow.
With that thought, he casually turned off the light, crawled into the quilt, and went to sleep with the little cutie.
…
That evening, on the other side of the city.
Before school ended in the afternoon, a school official devised a plan and obtained headshots of everyone in Zhang Xiaoling’s class.
Then, he discovered something shocking.
“It really is a ‘cross-dressing master’!?”
That evening, the school official sat at his computer desk at home, staring at the computer with his reading glasses for a long time, before widening his eyes and exclaiming in shock.
There were about fifty people in the class, and he compared them back and forth several times before finally finding Lin Muqing.
Moreover, he used the process of elimination, which took him quite a while.
“Lin Muqing, male, hiss!”
After finally finding the person, the school official encountered another problem.
Should he call Ye Ziming’s parents and tell them about these school matters?
Emmm…
Friday arrived in a blink of an eye. Besides preparing for the holiday, there was also the major event of the basketball game.
Early in the morning, Xiaomuqing took out her cheerleading uniform, which she had sent out days ago and had been washed and dried, along with a pair of white silk stockings.
Because it was a short skirt and short sleeves, she also needed to prepare safety shorts, otherwise, she might expose herself while performing.
Ye Ziming had told her this when she tried on the uniform at home.
“Boss, good luck with the basketball game.”
In the afternoon, as school ended, Xiaomuqing picked up her backpack containing the uniform and gave her good brother a gesture of encouragement.
“Mmm, you too. Good luck.”
With a faint smile, Ye Ziming nodded at Xiaomuqing, offering her encouragement as well.
After speaking, he also had to get up and go with Lin Wenbin and the others to the court for warm-ups.
Regarding this morning, he had found Lin Wenbin and learned that the school forum had become very lively for the past two days due to a certain post.
He said nothing and deliberately acted as if he knew nothing when interacting with Xiaomuqing.
Since the original post had been deleted, he couldn’t find any evidence for the time being, or he would have made someone’s butt bloom this noon.
“Then I’ll be going first.”
After locking eyes with her good brother for two seconds, Xiaomuqing felt there was something strange about his gaze, so she stood up and quickly exited.
Together with Zhang Xiaoling, she found a restroom to “transform” and change into the cheerleading uniform provided by the school.
Then, after she had changed into her entire outfit and walked out of the restroom, she suddenly noticed a small issue.
“Emmm, our clothes seem a bit different.”
Looking at her own uniform and then at what Zhang Xiaoling was wearing, Xiaomuqing asked with a puzzled voice.
This feeling was like a while ago at the cafe, where only she needed to wear cat ears and more small accessories.
“Of course, you’re the main ‘C’,”
Zhang Xiaoling was not surprised by this and gave a matter-of-fact answer.
“Emmm.”
Xiaomuqing fell silent. It wasn’t because she had once again become the most special one, but because of the expression on Zhang Xiaoling’s face.

At this point, even though she felt helpless, there was nothing she could say. She could only head to the dance studio with them.
They were gathering here because the instructor had arranged for them to do their makeup and get dolled up here beforehand.
“Oh dear, you even applied the powder crookedly!”
This was the first sentence Xiaomuqing heard upon entering the dance studio.
Immediately after, she saw the girls gathered in a pile, with two girls helping them “apply powder.”
It looked quite lively.
