People are in the magic card, instigating rebellion against the world.

Chapter 151 Ye Hui: Huh? I have a personal column too? Then let's not publicly execute you.
Sakura roughly counted, and there were more than fifty videotapes labeled "Sakura" alone!

What?! They even have videotapes for learning math?
She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

When exactly did Tomoyo film so much stuff?

How come she didn't feel anything at all?

And sometimes, even solving a simple math problem on a whim gets recorded?!
“This is only a part that has already been edited.” Tomoyo noticed her shocked expression and explained with a smile, “There are still some scattered clips being edited. It should be finished by the end of the holiday, and then we can organize them into a winter episode.”

Ye Hui also came over, originally just wanting to watch the excitement.

But when he saw the more than fifty boxes of meticulously categorized videotapes, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Good guy!
As expected of you, Tomoyo-chan!
When it comes to following celebrities... oh no, I mean documenting the growth of friends, they're incredibly professional!

This feels like they're putting in even more effort than a professional documentary director!

His gaze inadvertently swept over the cabinet next to him, and his pupils contracted slightly.

In the cabinet over there, dozens of videotapes were neatly arranged, but the names on the labels made his lips twitch involuntarily.

Ye Huijun's Daily Cultivation Life - Talisman Edition (A Collection of Failed Talisman Drawings)

"Ye Huijun's Demonstration of Supernatural Powers - Golden Light Mantra Special (First Teaching Version)"

Ye Huijun's First Collaboration with the Sakura Thieves

Ye Huijun's Breakfast Eating Log (Days 1-10)

……

Good guy! ! !
He even has a personal column?!
And the quantity is quite large; at a glance, there are at least forty boxes!
Ye Hui subconsciously touched his chin.

Tomoyo-chan, when did you start filming so many things behind my back?
His embarrassed expression when he failed to draw the talisman, and even his drowsy way of eating breakfast in the morning, were all recorded?
[Tomoyo Godōji has meticulously crafted a personal biography series for you! She used a photographic stone to record every important moment on your path of cultivation! This is the best proof of your supreme majesty! Your glorious deeds will surely be passed down through the ages after you become the ultimate demon king!]

"Tomoyo-chan, I... have more than forty boxes too?" Ye Hui pointed to his row of videotapes.

He usually pays attention to his surroundings, so how come he didn't realize that he had been secretly photographed so many times?
"Mmm~" Tomoyo nodded gently, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes. "It records you teaching me cultivation, demonstrating your supernatural powers, and the scenes of us capturing the Clow Cards together. Every segment is very meaningful! We can watch it together today~"

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +10】

Ye Hui: “.”

"Alright, let's get started! Don't keep the exciting part waiting too long!"

Tomoyo pulled Sakura, who was still standing there questioning her life, and Ye Hui, who was also starting to question his life, to sit down on the sofa.

The soft sofa cushions sink in a little, just enough to make you relax.

She picked up the remote control from the table and added with a smile, "Before we officially watch the videotape, I've prepared a little appetizer for everyone. I hope you'll enjoy it."

"An appetizer?" Sakura asked weakly, already bracing herself for a major attack.

Tomoyo nodded, her eyes filled with anticipation: "I even specially invited a professional singer to sing a theme song for our 'memoir,' and the audio has already been tuned."

Requesting beans—a sack!
Nani? ?
Theme song?!

Sakura felt her head go blank for a second, completely shutting down.

Not only is there a video recording, but there's even a theme song?
Isn't this a bit too much?

Is it too late for her to escape now?
Ye Hui was somewhat curious. He leaned back on the sofa and gently tapped his knee with his fingers.

I wonder if the theme song that Tomoyo is planning will be the same as the theme song of "Cardcaptor Sakura" that he heard in his previous life?
Seeing that neither of them objected, Tomoyo gently pressed the play button on the remote control.

The next second, a clear and powerful female voice flowed out with a light melody.

The first line of lyrics reached my ears clearly.

"It's all right! I won't bring it! I won't bring it!"

The familiar melody instantly evoked Ye Hui's memories.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly.

It really is the same theme song I heard in my past life, and even the singer's voice is somewhat similar.

Tomoyo really put her heart into it.

Anime characters create their own anime theme songs?

Also no one.

Tomoyo-chan, you truly deserve to be the director!
Sakura grabbed a pink cushion from the sofa and buried her face in it, leaving only a small section of her reddened ear showing.

She felt as if her toes had awkwardly dug a Tomoeda-cho (a fictional town) out of her socks, and her ears were burning hot.

This song is so evocative!

As soon as she heard the melody, she was reminded of herself wearing various combat suits.

Tomoyo is so talented!
Seeing her looking like she wanted to disappear into the ground, Ye Hui couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Ye Huijun! You're not allowed to laugh!" Sakura immediately poked half her head out from behind the pillow, glaring at him angrily, her cheeks still flushed, which, combined with her short brown hair, made her look like a little squirrel with its fur standing on end.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +12]

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore." Ye Hui raised his hands in surrender, forcing back his laughter and pursing his lips tightly.

Seeing this, Tomoyo picked up the remote control, pressed the pause button, and turned to ask the two, "How is it? This theme song is pretty good, isn't it? When I listened to it, I felt it really suited the time we spent searching for and capturing the Clow Cards."

"That's amazing! Tomoyo-chan, where did you find such a talented singer? The voice and the melody are perfectly matched!" Ye Hui praised first, speaking sincerely.

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +9】

“She’s a signed singer under our partner company. She didn’t have any performances scheduled recently, so I asked her to help with the recording. She even adjusted a few lines of lyrics based on our experiences,” Zhi Shi explained with a smile.

"Um... Tomoyo..." Sakura hesitated for a long time before finally speaking weakly, her voice tinged with trepidation, "Besides the three of us, has anyone else heard this song?"

"Don't worry, Sakura." Tomoyo smiled gently. "This song was specially made for you. So far, apart from the singer, only the three of us have heard it. It won't be made public later; it will only be kept as our exclusive memory."

"Phew...that's good." Sakura breathed a long sigh of relief, her tense shoulders instantly slumping.

so far so good!

Her social death was confined to the three of them and not seen by more people, otherwise she would really want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Alright, that's the appetizer over. Now it's time for the main course~" Tomoyo said with a smile as she pulled out the top plate from the fifty-odd videotapes.

The label reads "Sakura's Active and Heroic Deeds - Vol.1".

The group read through the first volume of Sakura's biography together.

The footage captures Sakura's tension and courage as she captures the Clow Cards time and time again, and even clearly shows her embarrassed appearance when she accidentally trips and falls.

Sakura covered her eyes the whole time, only daring to peek through her fingers, her cheeks as red as ripe apples.

Before Sakura could recover, Tomoyo took out Ye Hui's column videotape from the cabinet next to her and picked out one titled "Ye Hui-kun's Daily Cultivation - Talisman Chapter".

"Next, let's admire Ye Huijun's drawing skills~"

During the playback, Ye Hui saw...

Tomoyo even thoughtfully added various impressive-sounding subtitles to his "cultivation" process.

"To wander beyond the physical world and perceive the universe..."

"With a single thought, a flower blooms, and the ruler reigns supreme..."

Looking at those ridiculously cringeworthy subtitles, Ye Hui felt his own embarrassment starting to kick in, and couldn't help but facepalm.

Tomoyo-chan, where did you learn all these words from?

Seeing her two friends' reactions, Tomoyo smiled with satisfaction and began making plans with great enthusiasm.

"There will be exciting scenes later on, such as Ye Huijun teaching me how to train, us fighting together, and capturing other Clow Cards. I also have a lot of new ideas that I plan to use in the sequel."

A sequel...?
Upon hearing those two words, Sakura's eyes rolled back, and she blissfully "fainted."

After the Zhi family experienced a "public execution".

Time quickly came to the day when Youzhi Elementary School would release report cards.

The atmosphere in the classroom was unusually heavy early in the morning.

The usually lively and playful boys sat listlessly in their seats today, rubbing erasers back and forth in their hands, their eyes glancing at the podium every now and then, full of anxiety.

"Everyone looks so nervous." Sakura nudged Ye Hui behind her with her elbow, then glanced at Tomoyo beside her, her voice low.

She herself was so nervous that her palms were sweating, especially when she thought about her math score, her heart was pounding.

Although her math scores had improved significantly under Ye Hui and Zhi Shi's intensive tutoring, and she could consistently score above 70 or 80 on mock exams.

But the thought of this report card, which determines whether she can have a good time during winter break or whether she will have to endure her nagging brother when she gets home, is unbearable.

She still felt uneasy.

"Don't worry, Sakura."

Ye Hui noticed her nervousness and turned his head to comfort her in a low voice, "You've been working so hard on practice problems, you've even mastered the most difficult word problems, so you'll definitely be fine. Maybe you'll even get a surprise in the end."

Seeing Xiaoying's nervous expression, Ye Hui softened his tone and comforted her: "Don't forget the math workbook we did together before. You could basically get the word problems on the last few pages right the first time. Your math level is much better than before."

"Is...is that so?" Sakura's voice still sounded a little unsure.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +5]

"Of course." Ye Hui said with certainty and serious eyes. "You stay after school every day to do problems with us. Your annotations in your error notebook are more detailed than anyone else's. Believe me, hard work never lies. You should also have some confidence in yourself, just like your current abilities."

"Sakura has already worked really hard. I looked at your error notebook last time, and you even wrote down the thought processes for things the teacher didn't ask you to organize clearly." Tomoyo gently chimed in, lightly nudging Sakura's elbow. "Sakura, you'll definitely do well on this test, and even if you don't reach your expectations, it's not a big deal. We can just have extra lessons together later~"

Sakura paused, "Hmm."

at this time.

The classroom door was gently pushed open.

Mr. Terada walked in carrying a stack of report cards, a gentle smile on his face.

The moment he appeared, the classroom, which had been filled with hushed conversation, fell silent.

All eyes were drawn to the thin yet heavy stack of papers in his hand.

That's the key to whether you can have a peaceful and enjoyable winter break!

"good morning students."

Mr. Terada walked to the podium, placed the report card on the table, and tapped it gently to align the papers. "The last thing before the holidays is to distribute the report cards. Without further ado, let's begin."

He picked up the top one and scanned the whole class: "Tomoyo Daidouji."

"Hi, sir." Tomoyo responded softly, stood up, walked to the podium, and took the report card from Mr. Terada.

She glanced down quickly, a faint smile curving her lips, then turned and walked back to her seat, giving Ye Hui and Xiao Ying a gentle nod.

Sakura leaned closer and whispered, "Tomoyo, did you get a perfect score again?"

Tomoyo smiled and handed her the report card. Except for the Chinese composition, which had lost one point, all other subjects were full marks.

Sakura looked at the bright red score and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.

As expected, Tomoyo is always so amazing!

"Next, Ye Hui." Mr. Terada's voice rang out again.

Ye Hui stood up and calmly walked onto the podium.

Mr. Terada smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Ye Hui, you've maintained your previous level, especially in math. You were one of only two students in the entire grade to get a perfect score. Keep it up."

Ye Hui took the report card and glanced at the score column.

As the Chinese language teacher predicted, the composition was penalized with two points because the vocabulary was too concise, while all other subjects received full marks.

So, by this calculation, his total score is still lower than Zhi Shigao's.

He nodded to Mr. Terada, turned around and walked back to his seat, casually folded the report card and put it in the drawer, his face expressionless.

[You have once again achieved outstanding results in the sect competition! You have proven to everyone with your absolute strength that you are the undisputed genius! Your prestige has been enhanced once again!]

"Next up, Sakura Kinomoto."

Upon hearing her name, Sakura's heart leaped into her throat.

She took a deep breath and walked slowly to the podium with somewhat stiff steps, her eyes fixed on the piece of paper in Terada-sensei's hand.

"Kinomoto Sakura, you've improved a lot this time!"

Mr. Terada handed her the report card with an approving tone, and even pointed to the mathematics section.

"Especially in math, the score has improved from 70 or 80 to 90. And the mistakes were mostly due to carelessness. If we are more careful, we can do even better."

"Wow, really?" Sakura's eyes lit up, and the sunlight streaming through the window made them shine like light bulbs. Her voice rose a little, and the tension on her face dissipated almost entirely.

She quickly took the report card, eagerly opened it, and stared intently at the "90 points" in the math section.

The bright red numbers were like little suns, making her instantly feel that all her previous efforts were worthwhile!

Sakura was so excited she almost jumped up on the stage.

This is the best math test she's ever gotten since fourth grade!
In previous mock exams, my score was only around 70 or 80, but this time I actually broke through to 90!

Even she herself couldn't believe it.

"Great!" Sakura clutched her report card tightly, ran back to her seat with light steps, and couldn't hide the smile on her face.

She eagerly spread out her report card in front of Ye Hui and Zhi Shi, her voice brimming with excitement: "Ye Hui-kun! Zhi Shi-chan! Look! I got 90 on my math test! That's even higher than the last mock exam!"

"I told you, there's no need to worry too much." Ye Hui looked at her bright eyes and praised her with a smile, "All those practice questions you did before weren't in vain, and the summaries in your error notebook also came in handy. This score is well worth your efforts."

"Sakura is amazing, she's improved so much."

Tomoyo also came over to look at the report card. "Look, the points were mostly deducted for careless mistakes on the multiple-choice questions. If you had been more careful, you might have gotten a perfect score."

[Through your inhumane and grueling tutoring, you have successfully improved the competition results of Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple with the Heavenly Spiritual Root! Your evil training plan has achieved another stage of victory!]

Ye Hui: “…”

What is a "plan to cultivate evil"?
He was clearly trying to help Sakura with her studies out of kindness!
But then again.

Tutoring Sakura in math is definitely more tiring than dealing with the Clow Cards.

He had almost forgotten how he understood those chicken-and-rabbit problems and various travel-related issues in elementary school, and now he had to explain them in detail.

All those brain cells that died trying to cope with exams back then seemed to come back to life.

Mr. Terada continued handing out report cards from the podium.

As the papers were handed to the students, the atmosphere in the classroom became a mix of joy and sorrow.

Students who did well on the exam proudly showed off their report cards to their deskmates, their faces beaming with joy.

Those who didn't do well on the exam would slump over their desks, sighing and lamenting their scores, looking utterly hopeless.

"Next up is Li Meiling."

Upon hearing her name called, Li Meiling immediately straightened her back and stood up from her seat with a confident expression.

She was very confident in her grades, especially in Mandarin!
I have no trouble communicating with Sakura and the others, so I'm sure I'll get a high score!

But when she received the report card and saw the score of "85" in the Chinese language section, the smile on her face instantly vanished, she pouted in dissatisfaction, and her brows furrowed.

"Next up, Li Xiaolang."

Li Xiaolang took a deep breath and stood up from his seat.

He was actually a little nervous, especially about math. Although he usually had no problem with math problems, he was always afraid of making careless mistakes during the exam.

He strode towards the podium.

Perhaps because of the tension, her steps became stiff, and as she walked, she started to move her hands and feet in unison, which looked particularly awkward.

"Pfft..." Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing first.

Immediately afterwards, a burst of good-natured laughter filled the classroom, and even Mr. Terada couldn't help but smile.

Li Xiaolang stopped abruptly, his cheeks flushed red, and he stood there awkwardly, unsure of what to do with his hands.

He actually made a fool of himself in front of the whole class!
Damn it!
"Li, what's wrong? Is your leg cramping?" Mr. Terada noticed his embarrassment and quickly came to his rescue.

"I...I'm fine." Li Xiaolang's voice was a little slurred, and he lowered his head even further.

He strode to the front of the class, took the report card from Mr. Terada, and without even saying thank you, lowered his head and quickly walked back to his seat.

After sitting down, he deliberately moved the chair under the table, as if trying to hide himself.

After all the report cards were handed out, the classroom became lively again.

Sakura noticed that Li Meiling was still frowning at her report card, so she went over and whispered, "Meiling, what's wrong? You look unhappy. Did you do badly on the test?"

"Hmph!" Li Meiling slammed her report card on the table, her tone a little aggrieved. "Why did I only get 85 points in Chinese! I clearly know all those characters, and I didn't make any mistakes reading the text, so how could I lose so many points!"

Chiharu, who was sitting next to her, heard this and explained with a smile, "Mei Rin, although you speak Sakura language very fluently, some of the grammar and everyday usage are still quite different from what we usually learn."

"For example, if you use the 'ba' and 'bei' sentences in your composition a little awkwardly, the teacher may deduct some points."

"Is that so?" Li Meiling frowned and grumbled, though her grievances seemed to lessen a bit.

It turns out it wasn't because I didn't study well!

"It's okay, Meiling. You've only been in Sakura Country for a short time, and you already got 85 points, which is amazing!" Sakura comforted her, patting her on the shoulder. "Next time, let's practice writing together, and we'll definitely get an even higher score!"

"Of course! I'm a genius!" Li Meiling's mood immediately improved after being praised by Xiaoying. She regained her usual proud demeanor and even subconsciously straightened her back.

She turned to look at Li Xiaolang next to her and found him sitting there with a serious expression, holding his report card.

Li Meiling couldn't help but nudge him with her elbow: "Little Wolf, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and look at your test score! Did you fail and are afraid to tell us?"

Li Xiaolang didn't say anything, but silently handed over the report card.

Li Meiling took the report card and her eyes lit up instantly. She couldn't help but raise her voice, "Little Wolf, you're amazing! You're third in the class!"

Third in the class?

Ye Hui raised an eyebrow.

It's obvious without even thinking that Tomoyo and he will be the first and second place winners.

It's really good that Li Xiaolang got third place.

It seems this kid not only knows magic, but also has solid academic performance.

As expected of a child from China, their foundation is very solid!

Upon hearing the praise, Li Xiaolang's ears subtly turned red, and he secretly glanced in Ye Hui's direction.

Seeing that Ye Hui did not show any disdain but instead nodded slightly, he felt inexplicably relieved.

[Li Xiaolang's Mood Value +18]

at this time.

The school bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

The crisp sound instantly dispelled the last trace of tension in the classroom.

Everyone couldn't help but cheer.

—The delightful winter vacation is finally about to begin!

"Finally, it's vacation time!" Sakura was the first to jump up from her seat, excitedly tossing her schoolbag high into the air, then frantically catching it as it fell. "Finally, I don't have to get up early every day to memorize those math formulas anymore!"

"Yeah, finally I can get some rest and organize the videos I filmed earlier." Tomoyo stood to the side, smiling as she tidied up the stationery on the table.

"Rest? Sakura, have you forgotten something important?" Ye Hui slowly walked over from behind, holding a folded piece of paper in his hand.

"Something important?" Sakura paused for a moment, tilted her head and thought for a long time, but couldn't remember anything else she hadn't done.

Until she saw the piece of paper Ye Hui unfolded.

The list of winter break assignments for each subject was clearly displayed, along with the submission dates marked by the teachers. Her voice instantly weakened.

"Winter break homework sheet?"

"Ye Huijun! Why did you remind me of something so cruel!" Xiaoying pouted, glaring at him with a wronged expression, her excitement instantly dissipating. "I finally got a holiday, can't I just be happy for one day? Humph!"

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +10]

"Oh no, don't wrong me! I was just trying to remind you not to have too much fun and forget your homework."

Ye Hui shrugged, looking completely innocent. "Otherwise, the night before school starts, you'll be crying in the living room with your homework, and your brother will have to help you copy the questions. Have you forgotten what happened during the last holiday?"

"I won't cry!" Sakura retorted, but her cheeks were secretly burning.

Although she wouldn't admit it, she had indeed done such things before.

Because I was playing, I forgot to do my homework. As a result, when I stayed up all night to finish it, I even cried because I felt wronged.

I still feel a little embarrassed when I think about it now.
"Oh right! I think I've run out of math workbooks. I need new notebooks for my winter break homework, so I'll have to go buy a few."

Sakura suddenly remembered this and quickly changed the subject, reaching out to tug at Tomoyo's sleeve, "Tomoyo, do you want to come along?"

Tomoyo smiled and nodded, took out a small notebook from her bag, and glanced at it: "I'm almost out of my sketchbook and colored pencils, so let's go to Masaki-nee's toy store now. Her stationery is of very good quality, and she often has new styles."

"Okay, okay!" Sakura immediately nodded in agreement, and then pulled Tomoyo along towards the classroom door.

And so, the three members of the Sakura Thieves headed towards Masaki's toy store.

As soon as I pushed open the shop door, the wind chimes hanging at the entrance jingled once.

Masaki, who was tidying up the shelves, immediately looked up and greeted them warmly: "Welcome! Ah, it's Sakura, Tomoyo, and Hikaru. Have you finished your final exams?"

"Yes! Masaki-neechan, we're here to buy stationery and drawing materials." Sakura nodded with a smile, her eyes already scanning the new toys on the shelves.

"Then feel free to look around. Consider it a 20% discount for you today, as a winter break perk." Masaki winked at them, then turned around and took out a box of newly arrived chocolates from the counter. "These are freshly arrived strawberry chocolates. You can have them first. I'll go find you the latest sketchbooks."

"Thank you, Masaki-neechan!" Sakura happily accepted the chocolate, unwrapped it, and handed it to Tomoyo and Yoru first before peeling off a piece for herself.

Then, she dragged Tomoyo into the stationery section, weaving between the shelves: "Tomoyo, look! This notebook cover is so cute, it has a picture of a bear holding a honey pot!"

"And this pen, the cap is star-shaped, let me try it! Wow! The writing is even light pink, it's so pretty!"

Ye Hui followed behind them, watching the two girls excitedly compare their stationery.

They discussed the color of the notebook one minute, and the style of the pen the next. They could even talk for a long time about an ordinary mechanical pencil, and they couldn't help but smile.

Sure enough, no matter how old a girl is, her shopping spree is endless!
"Ye Huijun! Come here and help me choose!" Sakura suddenly ran over holding two notebooks, one light pink and one sky blue. Apart from the color, the patterns and materials were exactly the same. "Do you think I should buy the pink one or the blue one? The pink one is cute, but the blue one looks so refreshing. I like them both!"

Ye Hui glanced at the two notebooks in Xiaoying's hands and suggested with a smile, "Since you like them both, let's buy them both. Anyway, there's a lot of homework during winter break, and one notebook probably won't be enough. Besides, you always prefer to use new notebooks when taking notes, don't you?"

“That makes sense!” Sakura nodded, hugging both notebooks to her chest. “That way I can use one for math homework and the other for Chinese homework, which is perfect!”

[You see Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, holding two cultivation manuals, and you're consumed by deep jealousy! Back when you first started cultivating, you couldn't obtain any manuals at all! How come she can effortlessly acquire so many all of them?!]

On the other side, Tomoyo had already selected several different types of paintbrushes, and then she took out a box of new watercolor paints. Finally, from the sketchbooks that Masaki had taken out and put away, she pulled out a sketchbook with a plain white cover.

Sakura leaned closer and asked curiously, "Tomoyo, have you chosen your sketchbook yet? You're such a good artist, you even got a perfect score in art class last time, why do you still need to practice so often?"

Tomoyo's purple eyes curved into a gentle arc as she lightly brushed her fingers across the cover of the sketchbook and said softly, "Of course, it's because I want to record many beautiful moments."

"For example, the starry sky we saw at the hot spring hotel last time, and the scene when we captured the Clow Cards together, besides taking photos, it would be great to draw them with a paintbrush."

As she spoke, her gaze inadvertently swept over Ye Hui, a barely perceptible smile flashing in her eyes.

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +7】

Looking into her eyes, Ye Hui vaguely understood what she wanted to paint, but he didn't say much. He just smiled and helped her put the paint box into the shopping basket.

Just then, the wind chimes outside the shop rang again, and Li Jia walked in carrying a cloth bag. Her hair was simply tied back with a hair tie, making her look very neat.

"Welcome! It's Rika-san." Masaki greeted him with a smile.

"Hello, Masaki-neechan. I've come to buy some pens; I ran out of refills yesterday while doing my homework," Rika replied politely. She looked up and saw Sakura and the others, her eyes widening in surprise. "Sakura, Tomoyo, and Ye Hui, you're here too?"

"Yes, Rika! We came to buy stationery for winter break!" Sakura waved and held up the notebook in her arms to show her. "Look, I bought two new notebooks, pink and blue, they're so cute!"

"Ah, yes, it's a very cute little notebook." Rika nodded.

"By the way, Lijia, you told me last time that you were reading a really interesting novel. What's it about? I've been busy studying and haven't had a chance to ask you yet." Xiaoying suddenly remembered this and ran over to grab Lijia's arm to ask.

Li Jia thought for a moment and replied, "It's a romance novel about vampires. The main character is an ordinary high school girl, and there's also a vampire prince who has lived for over a hundred years."

"After their chance encounter, many stories unfolded, and the vampire prince even fought against other vampires to protect the female protagonist."

"Vampires? That sounds so cool!" Sakura's eyes lit up. "Won't they be in danger? Will the female lead be scared after she finds out he's a vampire?"

"No, the female lead is very brave, and the male lead is very good to her. For her sake, he is even willing to give up immortality and just wants to live an ordinary life with her."

Li Jia spoke of the novel's plot with longing in her eyes, "There's a scene where the male lead takes the female lead flying under the night sky, it's so romantic!"

Ye Hui listened from the side and blinked.

This story sounds so much like an adaptation of "Twilight"?
"Did they end up together?" Sakura pressed.

"Of course! Although we went through many ups and downs, we finally lived happily together in the end," Li Jia said contentedly.

Looking at Sakura's dreamy expression, Ye Hui couldn't help but tease her, "Sakura, you seem to really like this story. Do you want to fall in love too? If a vampire prince really came looking for you, would you go with him?"

"Huh? I didn't!" Sakura's cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly waved her hands in protest. "I just... I just thought their story was very touching! Don't talk nonsense, Ye Hui-kun!"

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +9]

Chiyo covered her mouth and chuckled.

Li Jia chimed in, "Sakura, you look like you're blushing!"

"I...I'm just hot! The heating in the store is on too high, that's why my face is red!" Sakura hurriedly explained, fanning her face with her hands to hide her panic.

"Yes, yes, it's hot." Ye Hui nodded with a smile, stopped teasing her, and turned to help Masaki calculate the bill.

Two notebooks, three pens, a box of watercolor paints, plus a sketchbook from Zhishi—after the 20% discount, the price is very reasonable.

After shopping, the group said goodbye to Masaki. Rika was going to the library to return books, so they parted ways.

Sakura, Tomoyo, and Hikaru walked side by side on their way home.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground, and a rare warmth filled the air, a welcome comfort in winter.

Sakura was carrying a bag of stationery, discussing the vampire novel with Tomoyo, and occasionally turning around to say a few words to Ye Hui.

Sakura suddenly remembered something, paused in her steps, and looked at Ye Hui expectantly with bright eyes: "Ye Hui-kun, when can we finally set off for our trip to China?"

"Once you've almost finished your winter break homework, we can set off."

Ye Hui didn't stop walking.

He had already decided that Sakura should finish her homework first.

Otherwise, if you go on a trip with a ton of homework, you won't be able to enjoy yourself in peace.
