My Best Friend is Actually a Cat-eared Maid at a Cafe! – Chapter 303

Chapter 303: Refusing to Admit It (Super Invincible Fusion)
Although she gave up on seeking help from her silly group of friends, Xiaomuqing was still chatting with them online.
These netizens were all joining in the fun, and ever since she asked that question, they had been discussing it.
They had given her some strange suggestions on how to test if she had “turned gay.”
For example, they suggested a “night raid” on him, sneaking into his room in the middle of the night and getting into his bed. If he could still sleep soundly, then nothing was wrong.
Upon seeing this message, Xiaomuqing, half-believingly, replied:
“Then it should be fine. Although I haven’t raided him at night, I’ve slept with him quite a few times.”
As soon as she sent this message, the atmosphere in the group seemed to turn strange. Did two guys often sleep together?
Netizen A: “Often sleep together? In the same bed?”
Mumu-chan: “Yeah, isn’t it normal for guys to sleep together?”
Netizen B: “Then you should just marry him.”
Netizen C: “You can start preparing your dowry now. Good luck.”
Netizen D: “I’ll say it again, I suggest you go to Thailand. The technology is very mature now…”
“…”
The netizens’ comments became more and more outrageous. Some even asked her about her good brother’s ‘physique’, his stamina, and how powerful he was.
This made Xiaomuqing blush with embarrassment and a subtle expression that could be described as an old man looking at his phone on the subway.
Later, some netizens suggested that her good brother likely had feelings for her and advised her to ask him directly.
“How is that possible?”
Upon seeing such messages, Xiaomuqing’s first reaction was disbelief. She thought it was impossible. How could her good brother have feelings for her?
Even though she was a girl now, she still had a boy’s soul. Did he like fencing?
Thinking of this, she turned her head and looked at her good brother, who was lying on another bed, looking down at his phone.
Emmm, she suddenly felt that it was somewhat possible. After all, she was a campus belle and had people pursuing her.
So… did he have feelings for her? Xiaomuqing was a little curious and wanted to try asking him.
But, it was so embarrassing to do that. Ask her good brother if he liked her? She might as well dig a hole and bury herself alive!
“Hm?”
Ye Ziming, who was playing with his phone, suddenly felt Xiaomuqing beside him looking at him. He turned his head and looked at her with a puzzled expression, letting out a hum.
His gaze clearly asked what she wanted.
Just now, after blow-drying Xiaomuqing’s hair, he put away the hairdryer and sat on the other side of the bed to continue playing with his phone.
Seeing Xiaomuqing’s exposed blue and white bowl sparked a memory of his promise to her this morning: to send her lewd pictures and doujinshi tonight.
Why would he remember such things? It could only be said that she was curvy and a little bit lewd.
“Emmm, it’s nothing, I was just looking at you.”
After a few seconds of eye contact with her good brother, Xiaomuqing blinked. She suddenly felt the atmosphere was a bit strange, so she quickly averted her gaze and continued playing with her phone.
After this exchange of glances, she felt that her good brother probably didn’t have any strange thoughts about her.
However, she seemed to have accidentally strayed from the original question: whether or not she had been “turned gay” by her good brother.
As for that question… she felt it was probably not the case. When she made eye contact with her good brother just now, she didn’t feel anything strange.
This thought didn’t linger in her mind for long because she soon remembered a small accident that happened on the bus this morning.
“Hiss! It shouldn’t be that terrifying, right?”
Her eyes suddenly widened, and while Xiaomuqing showed a shocked expression, her face quickly turned red.
At that moment, she did seem to feel her heart race, especially when her good brother was about to kiss her.
That feeling… compared to what the netizens said… it couldn’t be said to be very similar… it could only be said to be exactly the same.
“Ahhh! Don’t think about itttt!”
Next, Xiaomuqing, while yelling in her heart, buried her head in the pillow with a blushing face, kicking her legs against the bed vigorously.
At this moment, she was so ashamed she wanted to explode on the spot and bid farewell to the world.
Beside her, Ye Ziming felt the mattress vibrate. He turned his head and watched Xiaomuqing’s ‘fancy moves’, falling into a moment of silence, not knowing what to say.
She was tossing and turning so hard, and he just lay there watching her quietly, as if they were on separate planes.
Ye Ziming: “What’s wrong with this stupid loli again?”
After a while, as Xiaomuqing was flailing around on the bed, she wasn’t paying attention and fell off the edge.
“Ouch!”
“…”
Hearing the sound, Ye Ziming’s face twitched again. He knitted his brows, and his expression was unusually subtle.
As expected of a stupid loli.
“Mmm.”
Rubbing her butt, Xiaomuqing climbed back onto the bed with some effort, feeling a bit distressed about accidentally falling.
As she climbed back onto the bed and looked up, her gaze met Ye Ziming’s, and the atmosphere became increasingly awkward.
This was because Ye Ziming’s current gaze at her was clearly the look reserved for a “stupid loli.”
“Um, boss, I can actually explain.”
With a red face, Xiaomuqing lowered her head, scratching her head with one hand and clutching her skirt tightly with the other, feeling extremely embarrassed about her clumsiness.
Besides the embarrassment, there was a special kind of shame, due to what she had been thinking about earlier.
So, now, when she met her good brother’s gaze, her mood was very complicated and felt quite strange.
“Did you get hurt anywhere?”
Sighing inwardly, Ye Ziming sat up and looked at Xiaomuqing with a calm expression, asking softly.
Although he didn’t show it on his face, he was still a little worried. As he spoke, he reached out a hand, intending to check if she was injured.
“Emmm, I fell on my butt.”
After thinking carefully, Xiaomuqing raised her head, rubbed her butt, and replied with a hint of grievance.
“…”
Hearing this answer, Ye Ziming’s outstretched hand paused for a moment. Then, his eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and his eyes became even more subtle.
“Do you want me to rub it for you then?”
After about two seconds, Ye Ziming recovered and looked at Xiaomuqing speechlessly, saying to her.
Originally, he just said it casually and then looked back at his phone, packing and sending some things to Xiaomuqing.
After all, her ability to say such a thing meant Xiaomuqing was definitely fine.
As for the problem with her butt, Ye Ziming, who was often ‘dealing’ with it, knew its excellent damage reduction effect, so he wasn’t worried at all.
But what he didn’t expect was that after hearing his words, Xiaomuqing blinked at him and then said in a very small voice with a blushing face:
“Do you want… to touch my butt?”
“!? ”
Ye Ziming’s gaze, which had only half-retracted, suddenly froze. Then, the corners of his eyes twitched, and his mood became very complicated.
This sentence sounds so strange, and makes him seem very strange too.
Moreover, with that tone of voice (submissive), and that shy expression on her face, Ye Ziming felt it was more like a direct invitation to him.
An invitation to touch her little butt? That’s really weird.
“Hmm.”
After asking that question, Xiaomuqing immediately regretted it, because she also thought the way she asked was weird, and her face couldn’t help but flush again.
She asked because a netizen had told her earlier that if a guy likes another guy, he’ll mostly be attracted to ‘his’ butt.
Thinking this, she looked eagerly at her good brother, curious and also expectant of his answer.
But Ye Ziming was still one step ahead. He grinned, a wicked smile appearing on his face, and said to Xiaomuqing:
“Do you want me to touch you?”
With a turn of events, the question was instantly turned back on Xiaomuqing.
“Uh… no, I don’t really want to.”
Her eyes went blank and her expression froze. Xiaomuqing felt a little moved, but still decisively refused.
If she admitted it, wouldn’t that mean she was being swayed? How could that happen!
This strange topic was quickly skipped over. Ye Ziming continued looking at his phone and sent a compressed file to Xiaomuqing via QQ.
Meanwhile, Xiaomuqing continued to ponder whether her sexual orientation was still normal.
(Actually, the answer was quite obvious, but someone was unwilling to admit it.)
To ‘prove’ herself, she picked up her phone again, opened her gallery, and started flipping through the lewd pictures she had saved.
“By the way, Boss, you promised to send me lewd pictures tonight, remember?”
After looking for a while, Xiaomuqing suddenly remembered something her good brother had promised her a few mornings ago, so she turned her head and asked.
“…I already sent them to you.”
Looking at his phone, Ye Ziming didn’t turn his head and spoke indifferently.
“Oh, oh, thanks, Boss.”
Hearing this, Xiaomuqing’s face lit up with joy. She then chuckled and took out her phone to start receiving the compressed file.
That night, in order to prove her sexual orientation was still normal, she also pushed aside any strange thoughts about her good brother.
She looked through all the doujinshi that her good brother had sent, as well as those sent by her silly friends in the group some time ago, which she hadn’t had time to look at yet.
It could be said that she had never had a day like today, where she looked at so many doujinshi and lewd pictures at once.
After finishing, Xiaomuqing felt that these lewd pictures and doujinshi were all awesome, and her two goals had been successfully achieved.
It’s just that after looking at so many lewd things, she seemed to be feeling something…
If this were in the past, she probably would have found a place to relieve herself.
But now, she lay on the bed, curled up in her quilt, clasping her thighs tightly, occasionally rubbing herself because she felt a tiny bit uncomfortable.
Speaking of which, in the past half a year or so, she hadn’t tried that yet, you know, that shameful thing you can do all by yourself.
“Boss, I’m going to the restroom.”
Thinking this, Xiaomuqing sat up from the bed, a slightly abnormal blush on her face, her hands pressing on her skirt and speaking in a small voice.
“…Mm, go ahead.”
Hearing her voice, Ye Ziming turned his head and noticed the strange flush on Xiaomuqing’s face. He raised an eyebrow and nodded.
At first, he was a little puzzled, then he thought about her looking at lewd doujinshi, so he quickly guessed what kind of situation it might be.
After nodding, he sat up in bed, turned his back to the restroom, and continued playing with his phone. He knew what Xiaomuqing meant by that sentence.
Now that he had taken this posture, Xiaomuqing saw it and quickly stood up, quietly taking a dry pair of panties as she walked towards the restroom.
Compared to yesterday, Xiaomuqing was much smarter this time. After changing out of the wet panties, she quickly washed them, leaving no ‘evidence’.
Heh heh~
“All done.”
After finishing her business, Xiaomuqing, who was almost done washing her panties, poked her head out and said to her good brother.
Xiaomuqing: Humph, I’ve done everything I can. He definitely won’t be able to find out about that. Haha!
It so happened that Ye Ziming also felt the urge to urinate at this moment. Hearing Xiaomuqing’s voice, he stood up from the bed, put on his slippers, and walked towards the restroom.
When he reached the restroom door, Xiaomuqing was standing there, holding the wrung-out panties in her hands, preparing to take them to the vent to dry.
PS: Putting them near the vent at night and drying them by the window in the morning makes them dry easily.
“Uh, Boss, are you going to the restroom?”
Looking at the panties in her hand, and then at her good brother standing in front of her, Xiaomuqing smiled awkwardly and asked knowingly.
She asked this because she was flustered and guilty, afraid that her good brother would see through her.
“Mm.”
Ye Ziming calmly nodded and admitted it. As he spoke, he glanced at the panties in Xiaomuqing’s hand, and his eyes showed a subtle change.
Although his expression was calm, his heart was not. Looking at the panties, he instantly thought of what Xiaomuqing had just done, and of his discovery in the restroom last night.
Then he frowned, and looked at Xiaomuqing with some concern, as well as some curiosity.
He was thinking, after looking at so many lewd things, wouldn’t the Se Luoli get ‘fired up’? He couldn’t quite understand.
“Cough, cough, you hurry up then.”
After staring into her good brother’s eyes for a while, Xiaomuqing quietly breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly walked past the space he had made, and after leaving the restroom, she turned back and said with a smile.
She felt that since her good brother didn’t react strangely and didn’t say anything to her, it meant nothing had happened.
“Phew~ Thank goodness I’m smart enough, hehe.”
Thinking this, Xiaomuqing tidied up her panties and happily returned to the bed, and then…
Forget it, I won’t look anymore. If I look again, I’ll have to change panties later.
Lying down on the bed and pulling the blanket over herself, Xiaomuqing belatedly discovered another side effect of looking at too many doujinshi.
When her good brother returned to the bed, pulled the blanket over himself, and snuggled into the quilt with her, she thought of the plot in the doujinshi.
In it, the male and female protagonists slept together like this, and then when the lights were turned off at night, after the female protagonist fell asleep, the male protagonist reached out his hand… and entered… hehehe.
“It’s not early, let’s sleep.”
At the same time, Ye Ziming checked the time, put down his phone, pulled the blanket, and then turned his head to remind Xiaomuqing that it was time to sleep.
But he didn’t know that what used to be a normal sentence, said many times before, now sounded different to Xiaomuqing’s ears.
“Ah? Sleep?”
With a small exclamation, Xiaomuqing gasped, looking at Ye Ziming with wide eyes and a very surprised expression.
In that very lewd doujinshi, the male protagonist spoke to the female protagonist just like this, the exact same line!
Wow! That plot, just thinking about it made her instinctively clamp her thighs together, her face flushing and her heart pounding.
“Is there a problem?”
Turning his head, Ye Ziming looked at Xiaomuqing’s surprised expression and her inexplicably reddened face. He frowned, showing his confusion.
This is something he says basically every day, as long as they sleep together, because Xiaomuqing has no sense of time when playing on her phone.
Therefore, after this series of actions, Ye Ziming was not only puzzled but also very surprised, and even his gaze became strange.
“Uh… uh… no, no problem.”
Being looked at by his good brother like this, Xiaomuqing finally reacted after a while, thinking that this was just a normal interaction.
It’s just that she imagined it as a doujin plot…
With that said, she put away her phone at an unprecedented speed, lay down, and burrowed into the bedding, covering her head with the blanket, then quietly waited for her good brother to turn off the light.
(I’m so embarrassed, quickly hide)
“…”
Looking at the bulge on the bed, and then recalling the blush he saw on Xiaomuqing’s face just now, Ye Ziming was silent for a moment.
Then he turned around and turned off the light beside the bedside table with his right hand, and of course all the lights in the room.
After finishing, he pulled the blanket and lay down in the bedding himself.
Before falling asleep, he felt that lewd pictures might need to be controlled in terms of quantity, and looking at too many of them felt not good.
However, based on his understanding of se loli, it seemed a bit difficult to make her obedient and not look at those things…
Moreover, besides him, no one else seemed to know the true nature of this se loli.
In other words, in the eyes of others, she was a well-behaved and sensible good child, not the kind who would be associated with those lewd things.
Ye Ziming: “Tsk, what a scummy loli.”
(￣ー￣)
Late at night, sensing that the lights
Ye Ziming took out his phone and opened the ski equipment checklist he had prepared. Then he led Xiaomuqing forward.
Because the ski resort offered many rental items, with ski boards included in the ticket price, they needed to get a mask and ski goggles.
PS: Wear ski goggles to prevent snow blindness.
“Lin Muqing! Come with me quickly!”
After only a few steps, Zhang Xiaoling suddenly popped out. She grabbed Xiaomuqing’s hand and led her to a stall.
Here, a group of girls were gathered, discussing and choosing what to buy .
Ye Ziming: “…”
“Try this, I think it’s super suitable for you.”
At the stall, Zhang Xiaoling took out a pair of ski goggles and said while putting them on Xiaomuqing.
Beside them, a group of girls and the stall owner were watching. After Zhang Xiaoling finished dressing Xiaomuqing, she took out a mask and prepared to try it on.
The stall owner suddenly said, “You look so fitting. How about I give you a 10% discount on this children’s set? I also have a souvenir.”
” !?”
Xiaomuqing was shocked, Zhang Xiaoling was overjoyed, and Wang Wenxin and others beside them showed strange smiles, simply put, a funny face.
Oh, and Ye Ziming. He looked at the matching set on Xiaomuqing: a mask, ski goggles, and a hat.
He nodded to himself, showing a satisfied expression, and then walked straight to the stall to inquire about the price and scan the code to pay.
This operation completely stunned Xiaomuqing. She hadn’t even reacted before it was over!
Soon, she realized that Zhang Xiaoling was playing a trick on her.
She found a children’s set for herself for no reason, and it… actually fit quite well.
Damn it!
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
“Let’s go, we’re going to take the cable car.”
After buying the items, Ye Ziming saw Xiaomuqing’s indignant face, chuckled softly, and then took her small hand, leading her towards the cable car.
Beside them, the other girls had also finished their shopping. Like Ye Ziming, they bought a few things and would rent the rest at the ski resort.
Just as Xiaomuqing was thinking about rushing up the mountain and forgetting about being treated like a child, the stall owner, who had made a good profit, added, “Little one, remember to stay close to your parents when you ski.”
The moment she heard this, she didn’t think it was directed at her and assumed they were talking to someone else.
Then, when she turned her head and saw Zhang Xiaoling looking at her, and the stall owner also looking at her.
‘Whoosh,’ an arrow shot from the sky and pierced Xiaomuqing’s heart from behind.
Xiaomuqing covered her chest with one hand, bending slightly, feeling like she wanted to cough up blood.
“They’re just concerned about you, little one,” said Xiaolan, walking over to Xiaomuqing from the group, with a sly smile.
‘Whoosh,’ another arrow struck Xiaomuqing from another direction.
“It hurts so much~”
Xiaomuqing coughed up a mouthful of blood.
People’s joys are different. The people standing next to her were laughing happily, while she only felt the noise.
“It’s our turn, let’s go.”
Holding Xiaomuqing’s small hand, Ye Ziming led her to the cable car and prepared to take it up the mountain.
Regarding Xiaomuqing being mistaken for a child, he chose to remain silent and watch from the sidelines.
It was just a small prank.
…
It was a sunny day today, and the air quality on the mountain was very good, just a little bit cold.
As a result, Xiaomuqing didn’t want to take off her hat and mask after putting them on.
Also, before skiing, to prevent her from freezing into a muggle and falling like a pretzel on her first try, Ye Ziming helped her put on a ski suit.
After preparations were complete, the skiing officially began.
“Boss, take it easy, this is my first time.”
“…”
“Wait a minute, slow down, I can’t handle it. Ow! It hurts!”
“…”
Seeing Xiaomuqing fall on the snow by accident, Ye Ziming frowned and felt embarrassed, not knowing how to comment for a moment.
These terrible lines and strange tone of voice. Thankfully, there was no one around, and her voice wasn’t loud, or he would have been mortified.
“Be careful. Don’t rush to get up when you fall. First, check if you’re injured.”
While feeling embarrassed, he slowly squatted down, very gently checked Xiaomuqing, and then helped her up.
“Ouch, this feels a bit difficult.”
Touching her butt, Xiaomuqing stood up with some effort.
There were dedicated instructors teaching everyone to ski. Since Ye Ziming had learned and skied before, he could split off for one-on-one instruction.
“Take your time.”
After patting the snow off Xiaomuqing’s body, Ye Ziming wasn’t in a hurry and slowly began the lesson.
While they were learning to ski, someone Xiaomuqing didn’t really want to see, along with a strange girl she met in the changing room last night, were on their way to the ski resort.
“Wang Kaize.”
“Hm?”
“Being a loli-con is illegal.”
“…So?”
“So come and ‘con’ me, I’m already seventeen and will be an adult after my birthday this year. It’s legal, you know.” (giggles)
“…” (silence)
…
There were restaurants near the ski resort. Apart from being a bit too expensive, everything else was great.
Next to it was a lounge. For Xiaomuqing, who had been learning to ski all morning, it was a good place to rest.
“Boss, do you remember what you promised me yesterday?”
In the lounge, Xiaomuqing was playing with her phone, happily chatting with netizens and occasionally engaging in some suggestive conversations.
Halfway through the conversation, she suddenly saw the word ‘milk tea’ and remembered something her good brother had promised her yesterday.
That was, to drink milk tea~
Beside her, Ye Ziming heard this and frowned, thought for a moment, then turned his head and whispered, “Didn’t I already send it to you last night?”
“?”
For a moment, the atmosphere around the two became a bit awkward and strangely quiet.
Ye Ziming’s gaze was subtle, clearly using the expression he used when looking at Se Luoli.
Xiaomuqing’s eyes were a little dazed, her mind wondering if she had drunk milk tea last night. It seemed not; her good brother had only sent her lewd pictures.
Emmm, after a short while, she gradually realized something was wrong.
“It’s not lewd pictures!”
Her eyes widened, and Xiaomuqing was frantic and angry, thinking that her good brother actually regarded her as someone who always wanted lewd pictures!
Is she that kind of person!? (blushing + angry + glaring)
“Oh, then what was it?”
Ye Ziming raised his eyebrows. Looking at Xiaomuqing, he couldn’t remember what he had promised her yesterday.
“That! You promised me yesterday afternoon that you would buy it for me today.”
Turning around, Xiaomuqing pointed to the milk tea shop and said to her good brother with a serious and solemn expression.
At this point, Ye Ziming finally remembered that he had indeed promised Xiaomuqing he would buy her milk tea.
Following Xiaomuqing’s pointed direction, he saw that there were quite a few people there and no seats to rest.
So he simply stood up and turned to Xiaomuqing, saying:
“I’ll go buy a cup of milk tea. Sit here and wait for me to come back.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Hearing that her good brother was going to buy her milk tea, Xiaomuqing happily nodded, then obediently continued to sit in her seat, playing on her phone and waiting for the milk tea.
After a while, Xiaomuqing slowly realized that what her good brother had said sounded a bit familiar.
It was the same sentence from the Chinese textbook where Zhu Ziqing’s father said to him: “I’m going to buy an orange, you stand here and wait for me to come back.”
Thinking of this, the smile on Xiaomuqing’s face gradually froze.
As if by a strange coincidence, when she snapped back to reality and realized the problem, Ye Ziming had already walked far away to buy her an orange… no, milk tea.
Where she couldn’t see, the corner of Ye Ziming’s mouth twitched, revealing a faint, subtly cunning smile.
In front of the milk tea shop, the queue for buying milk tea wasn’t long, but this was just for ordering. After ordering, he would have to wait for many numbers to be called before it was his turn.
Just as he was standing at the entrance of the milk tea shop, hesitating whether to go back and sit and wait, a young man suddenly appeared before him.
And this young man was Wang Kaize.
“I’ve already bought the milk tea she wanted to drink for you.”
Holding two cups of milk tea, Wang Kaize stood in front of Ye Ziming and said with a very confident and somewhat proud smile.
After speaking, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he planned to take these two cups of milk tea, one for himself and the other to give to Lin Muqing over there.
Everything had been planned, so he was smiling happily.
But his happiness didn’t last long, because after Ye Ziming looked at him a few times, he suddenly asked:
“Who are you?”
Ye Ziming felt baffled.
This young man suddenly appeared before him and said some strange things to him that he couldn’t understand.
Also, he only felt that this person looked a bit familiar, but he wasn’t good at remembering people, so he couldn’t recall who it was immediately.
“You…”
As Ye Ziming said those three words, the smug smile on Wang Kaize’s face instantly froze, and then he seemed to enter a state of malfunction.
The atmosphere was awkward, and he was also awkward.
Looking into Ye Ziming’s eyes, he suddenly felt a tendency to become enraged out of shame.
As an opponent, he valued Ye Ziming so much, but Ye Ziming didn’t even acknowledge him. Wasn’t this the biggest blow?
…
On the other side of the lounge area, Xiaomuqing was looking down at her phone while using her bag to save a chair for her good brother.
The lounge area was large with many seats, but there weren’t many good spots like the one she was sitting in, so she had to reserve it.
Soon, while playing on her phone, she noticed a figure approaching and then caught sight of two cups of milk tea being placed on the table in front of her out of the corner of her eye.
“Wow, boss, you… uh?”
The moment she noticed the milk tea, Xiaomuqing thought her good brother had returned, so she quickly put down her phone and looked up with joy.
But in the next instant, this face full of joy vanished, replaced by a rather subtle expression.
“We’ve known each other for so long, and I haven’t even treated you to a cup of milk tea. Give me some face, okay?”
Seeing the change in Xiaomuqing’s expression, Wang Kaize frowned almost imperceptibly, feeling a little emotional but not showing it.
He said, pushing the milk tea towards Xiaomuqing, then taking a seat on the chair opposite her with a smile he thought was handsome.
“Emmm.”
Looking at the cup of milk tea on the table, then at Wang Kaize sitting opposite her, Xiaomuqing fell silent.
She kind of wanted to refuse, but didn’t know how to refuse properly.
“Signature pearl milk tea, seven parts sugar, warm. I think you’ll like it.”
Seeing that Lin Muqing hadn’t moved, and the atmosphere was getting a bit awkward, Wang Kaize spoke again, trying to break the deadlock.
“Seven parts sugar?”
Looking up at Wang Kaize, Xiaomuqing’s eyes widened, and a faint smile appeared on her face. She felt like she had found a reason to refuse.
“Yeah, girls like you usually prefer less sugar, right?”
Seeing that the atmosphere was developing in a good direction, Wang Kaize quickly followed up, thinking he could start a conversation by finding a topic.
But he had misjudged after all. As he looked delighted and expected Lin Muqing to pick up the milk tea he bought, she said:
“Not at all, I always drink full sugar.”
Xiaomuqing said this to him seriously and sternly.
“Drinking something so sweet, aren’t you afraid of gaining weight?”
It was a bit awkward, but Wang Kaize still suppressed the awkwardness and continued the conversation, grabbing onto this topic.
Opposite him, Xiaomuqing listened to this question and felt that it made sense.
Drinking overly sweet milk tea could indeed lead to weight gain, but the fact was that she drank a lot of milk tea in the first half of the year and didn’t gain much weight.
But in the second half of the year, ever since she started living with her good brother, her frequency of drinking milk tea decreased, and she gained quite a bit of weight…
“If I gain weight, then I gain weight.”
Shrugging her shoulders and then looking down at her phone, Xiaomuqing chose to give up and not think about such trivial matters.
As her mother taught her, the more you fear fat, the more it comes.
“…”
The conversation here was awkward. Xiaomuqing, known as the “awkward chat princess,” could easily kill a conversation.
Moreover, Wang Kaize didn’t understand her at all, so this conversation was incredibly difficult, even bordering on infernal difficulty.
This awkward atmosphere continued until Ye Ziming returned with two cups of milk tea from the shop to Xiaomuqing’s side.
He was very confident about Xiaomuqing, a confidence that came from being the original partner and ‘caretaker’.
Oh, right, he had remembered where he had seen the other person not long after, but still couldn’t recall his name.
“Boss~”
Seeing her good brother appear, Xiaomuqing’s face lit up with joy, and she raised her hands to welcome… her milk tea.
However, her posture of sitting on the chair with her hands raised looked like a child wanting a hug, which was quite cute.
“Drink slowly, it’s a bit hot.”
As he handed the milk tea to Xiaomuqing, Ye Ziming did not forget to remind her, a faint smile on his face.
After speaking, his gaze changed. He glanced at Wang Kaize sitting at the same table and then sat down next to Xiaomuqing.
There was still a smile on his face, but the tone had clearly changed.
There was a hint of hostility, but not entirely, because he didn’t consider the other person a rival.
If you looked closely, it was more like a look of amusement, just not very obvious.
