Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

"Hmm... they're all Mur cat head boxer briefs, right?"

"!!!?! When did you see this, Rin-chan!?"

Xu Youyue was shocked! Those were just underwear she bought for fun, and she'd only worn them twice. How did Xu Lin know?!

Do you remember when we first met and we went shopping together, you tripped and fell while wearing a little skirt?

The white-haired girl helplessly shrugged and sighed.

Before that, Xu Lin had always thought of Xu Youyue as a quirky, mischievous, and adorable girl, until that day when she saw the real Xu Youyue.

Then I was attracted to it instead.

"Grass!"

Xu Youyue wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

But, Miss...

Wearing cat-head underwear under a JK uniform, are you some kind of gangster princess?

"Ah...ah..."

The female host couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe how amazing these two people were, and paused for a moment like a potato game before continuing.

"It seems that the two of you have quite an amazing experience getting along. Now let's look at the next question."

"Where did you two first meet?"

After reading the question aloud, the young lady felt something was off. Just as she was about to add something, she heard the two of them speak in unison.

"Keep it a secret!"

It's definitely necessary to keep this a secret, since these two first met at ESC headquarters.

"Alright, let's move on to the next question: do you two know each other's favorite food?"

"Mango milk tea, less sugar, no pearls."

"Warm red bean milk tea paired with egg tarts."

The two spoke at the same time, answering quickly.

"? You know Yuyue."

Xu Lin was somewhat surprised. Although it was her favorite food, she didn't eat it that often. She thought the young lady would answer something else.

"Of course I know. When we go to bubble tea shops and cake shops together, you eat these two things about 80% of the time. How could I not know?"

And she even looked incredibly happy.

Xu Youyue muttered the last sentence to herself but didn't say it aloud, as a way of saving face for her colleagues.

After all, this person had always presented himself as a straight man, and even Lin Mu and the others from the same company had always thought that Senior Ruoye didn't eat sweets.

The fact that Xu Lin actually loves sweets is a little-known secret known only to the young lady, lol.

Oh, Yuzu knows too, but she's an exception.

"It's quite normal for things to be unexpected."

The female host breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that these two were still somewhat normal. However, she didn't know why all the Kumamon bears in the audience were jumping up and down. Although their expressions couldn't be seen, their exaggerated gestures clearly showed that they were expressing shock.

I was so shocked I started trembling.

"So, one last question: would you two like to share a kiss?"

"No!" *2

The two girls, each with a single ponytail, tossed their heads at the same time, held hands, and walked off the stage with a clattering sound.

"???"

No, you two are so in sync, why are you shy about kissing in front of your friends?! Shouldn't you be a little shy and hesitant to agree to my request at a time like this, and then end the show perfectly amidst the applause of the audience and my blessings?!

You guys aren't following the rules!!!

Watching the two of them walk further and further away amidst the adoration of Kumamon, the female host on stage finally began to question her life choices.

Section 230, Chapter 40: A Dreamlike Afternoon

"So you guys were following us around in this sweltering heat in these hot mascot costumes just to drag us here to participate in some lousy show?"

After the two walked off the stage hand in hand, the white-haired girl looked at the five identical Kumamon figures beside her and asked with a confused expression.

She had initially thought these people would have even more bizarre plans.

What's wrong with me? This feeling of disappointment.

The Kumamon in front of them didn't speak, but just glanced at each other. One of the Kumamon stepped forward, wiped its sweat, and shook its head at the two of them.

"You've just wasted your time."

Xu Lin couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

But what she didn't know was that the Kumamons on the other side were also feeling complicated.

Their original plan was to stir things up; they brought the two of them onto the show just to see how awkward it would be for them to face the host's questions when they were clearly in love but not yet together.

But as planned, things changed quickly. Before Xu Lin and the young lady could even get involved, they had already jumped into the fire of love themselves.

This speed of progress was beyond anyone's expectations.

I shouldn't have worn Kumamon today; I should have worn the FFF group outfit instead.

This is what Sister Yan thought to herself after hearing that the two had been together for two weeks.

I said...

Just as the two sides were locked in a passionate gaze, Xu Youyue weakly raised her hand.

All the Kumamon bears turned to look at her, creating a rather frightening scene.

"Sister Yan, aren't you hot? There's no need to wear this mascot costume now, is there?"

Although the young lady had intuitively recognized that the leader of this group was Li Huiyan, none of the Kumamon remained silent.

They simply watched the two of them quietly, and after a while they nodded to each other, as if they had reached some kind of consensus, and then together they pulled the two of them to the next location.

A big bird spins... Pshaw!

It's a carousel.

"?"

Xu Lin cast a question mark over them.

The Kumamon mascots slipped two tickets into her hand.

At the same time, two more Kumamon, noticeably taller than the Kumamon beside them, suddenly appeared, carrying a large handful of helium balloons as they approached the two.

"Who is this again? www So you're not all of you?"

Xu Youyue tilted her head blankly, looking confused.

Didn't they say only six people came? How come two more suddenly showed up?

But the Kumamon still didn't answer her question.

The suddenly appearing Kumamon simply watched the two of them quietly and pointed to the helium balloon in its hand.

"Do we have to choose one?"

Xu Youyue tentatively tried to decipher its meaning.

(Nods) (Nods)

"I want it all!"

As Xu Lin spoke, he snatched all the helium balloons from one of the Kumamon bears.

Then. . .

She almost ascended to heaven on the spot.

There were at least twenty helium balloons in that bunch, and the buoyancy they provided was enough to offset most of her weight.

After transforming, Xu Lin's weight was about the same as that of a small child.

Xu Lin tried jumping on the spot.

It suddenly darted more than a meter away.

Kumamon, who was standing nearby, quickly reached out and pulled her down.

"It was quite interesting, thank you, Kumamon."

The white-haired girl looked in surprise at the colorful bunch of balloons in her hand and nodded to the Kumamon.

"I want to play too! I want to play too!"

Xu Youyue's eyes lit up, and she skipped over to another Kumamon, reaching out for a balloon.

The Kumamon looked at the others with a troubled expression, but in the end, it gave all the balloons to the young lady.

Then two elementary school students appeared playing on a trampoline on flat ground.

The surrounding children all looked on with envy.

Seeing that the kids were eager to grab the balloons, the Kumamon quickly stuffed Xu Lin and her friend into the carousel.

One of the Kumamon even tripped on the ground and almost fell over.

"So cute and silly."

The white-haired girl commented.

Enraged, the Kumamon rushed up and slapped her, its big paw covering Xu Lin's face.

Perhaps because of the protective suit, the way couples and Kumamon interact has changed a lot. They are more open with each other, and even the young lady is no longer shy.

It's like rediscovering childhood, sitting on a carousel and laughing out loud.
