Apocalyptic Crossover: Starting with a Guide to Winning Over Asuna

Chapter 37 Rin Tohsaka

While the group was choosing clothes, and with nothing else to do, Lu Xiao took out the wooden toy to examine it.

Passersby looked on with surprise, but Lu Xiao paid no attention to it.

What's the point of this thing? Is it really for that kind of thing? Can it increase excitement?

After observing it for a few minutes, I couldn't figure out what the secret was, so I decided to put it away.

Just then, a girl wearing a red turtleneck bodysuit, a black short skirt, and black pigtails appeared in front of him.

The girl has delicate and well-proportioned features, and a bright and capable demeanor.

Her eyes were fixed on the toy in Lu Xiao's hand, and her eyes gradually widened.

Lu Xiao's eyes widened when he saw the girl.

[Rin Tohsaka, 17 years old, Affection level 0, Level 19.]

I've encountered another classic anime character: the young lady of the Tohsaka family, one of the three founding families in the Holy Grail War.

"You like this?"

Lu Xiao pushed the large mushroom forward, almost touching Rin Tohsaka's nose.

Rin Tohsaka blushed: "I don't want such filthy things!"

Rin Tohsaka immediately spread her arms to block her view, unable to bear looking at the item.

His flustered appearance was quite amusing.

She peeked at Lu Xiao through her fingers: "Why do you have this?"

"Oh~ I got this from killing monsters. What, is this something unusual?" Lu Xiao asked.

It seems we've found someone who understands this item, otherwise Rin Tohsaka wouldn't have come to check it out on her own initiative.

"This is very unusual!" Rin Tohsaka said decisively.

Just then, Shino also came over.

His eyes flashed with hostility as he looked at Rin Tohsaka: "Lu Xiao, who is this?"

Lu Xiao scratched his head: "She took the initiative to talk to me, and I still don't know who she is."

Rin Tohsaka blushed upon hearing this: "What do you mean I approached you? I was just... just interested in this item!"

Rin Tohsaka's tsundere personality surpasses even Sinon's.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao and Shino looked at the giant mushroom, then glanced at Rin Tohsaka. Their unusual expressions made Rin Tohsaka's cheeks instantly burn red.

Rin Tohsaka stomped her foot in anger, but couldn't retaliate.

"What kind of looks are those! I have no interest in such strange things. I just noticed that it has a strong magical aura, so it's not an ordinary toy!" Rin Tohsaka quickly defended herself, hands on her hips, her face full of embarrassment.

Sure enough, this item had its purpose.

Rin Tohsaka looked flustered and didn't know how to explain for a moment. Finally, she took out a business card and handed it to Lu Xiao: "Anyway, my contact information is on it. If you want to know what it's for, come and find me."

After saying that, Rin Tohsaka dared not linger any longer, afraid of being stared at by the two of them with strange looks.

His steps were hurried, and his back view seemed to indicate that he was fleeing in panic.

Asuna walked over: "Who is she? I think I remember her, isn't she Rin Tohsaka from the Tohsaka family?"

"Do you know her?"

"Yes, I met her at the Chamber of Commerce before. She's had a tough time; her parents are gone, and she's been supporting the entire Tohsaka family all by herself."

"Don't let her young age fool you, she's incredibly shrewd in business, pulling her almost-declining family back into the ranks of the elite."

Upon hearing this, Shi Nai suppressed her hostility and looked at Lu Xiao teasingly: "Now that you've got her contact information, you're not going to go see her tonight, are you? It wouldn't be bad to hook up with a rich girl."

Lu Xiao smiled helplessly: "Isn't the real little rich woman right in front of us?"

He was referring to Asuna.

I don't know whether Asuna or Rin Tohsaka is richer, but they're both richer than me.

"I just want to figure out what this thing is used for."

Shino pouted: "I don't believe you. Who knows what kind of mischief you're up to?"

Asuna quickly smiled and smoothed things over: "Okay, Sinon, stop teasing him. I believe Lu Xiao isn't that kind of person."

The group then continued browsing around the mall.

Shino saw a karaoke bar in the mall and hesitated as she passed by.

"Want to go to karaoke?" Lu Xiao asked.

Sinon was a little reserved: "I... want to sing for a while."

Lu Xiao chuckled: "Come on, I'll show you guys how to relax."

The group booked a small private room.

Sinon and Asuna picked up the microphones. At first, they were a little reserved, but as the melody started, they gradually opened up their voices.

Lu Xiao and Zhen Ye clapped on the side.

After a while, Shino suddenly remembered something.

"What would you like to drink? I'll go out and get something."

They were all a bit thirsty, and they didn't drink alcohol, but Lu Xiao was a little puzzled. Why couldn't they just order directly instead of going out to buy it?

Is this guy trying to create another opportunity for himself?

"Buy whatever you like," Lu Xiao said.

Sinon nodded: "Suguha, let's go together, see what you'd like to drink."

Although Suguha was slightly puzzled, she didn't say anything and went out with Shino to buy drinks.

Inside the private room, only Lu Xiao and Asuna remained.

Asuna picked up the microphone and sang a moving song with her back to Lu Xiao.

Looking at Asuna's perfect figure, Lu Xiao's heart fluttered slightly.

The melody is gentle and melodious, and Asuna's voice is clear and affectionate.

She was completely absorbed in the song and didn't notice the burning gaze behind her.

At this moment, Lu Xiao approached Asuna and gently put his arm around her waist from behind.

Asuna trembled, her singing stopped abruptly, her hand holding the microphone tightened slightly, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

She didn't struggle, but just turned her head slightly, revealing her pink earlobes.

The warm breath close to her ear made Asuna's heart beat faster involuntarily.

"Don't do that, what if Shino and Suguha come back—"

"It's okay, they won't be back so soon. Can I hold them for a little while?"

Asuna responded in a soft, almost inaudible voice, filled with shyness, but she obediently relaxed and leaned completely into Lu Xiao's arms.

The beautiful background music continued to flow gently, enveloping the two of them.

Asuna picked up the microphone again and began to sing, her voice even softer than before.

At the same time, Lu Xiao's hands also began to become restless.

Asuna's voice trembled slightly, the last note softening almost imperceptibly, but she still forced herself to remain calm and continued singing, though the blush on her ears grew even stronger.

Asuna's heart was beating faster and faster, and she nestled obediently in Lu Xiao's arms.

Lu Xiao held Asuna in his arms, not wanting to miss this hard-won opportunity to be alone with her.

After a few songs, footsteps could be heard outside.

The two then separated and sat on the sofa.

Sinon pushed open the door and came in, carrying a bag of snacks and drinks, with Suguha following behind.

She glanced at the two sitting properly, especially Asuna's blushing cheeks, and clearly understood something, but she didn't say anything.

He simply placed the things on the table and said, "I'm a little late, I hope you weren't waiting too long?"

Asuna hurriedly grabbed a bottle of water, her fingertips still burning hot, and tried to sound calm as she said, "No, no, we just finished singing a few songs."

"Alright, then it's my turn and Suguha's turn to sing."

After saying that, she picked up the microphone, glanced at Lu Xiao with interest, and began to sing.
