"I was just asking, don't overthink it. My concert is coming up at the end of the month, so I was just wondering if we could schedule it at a different time."

Xu Lin still didn't focus his attention on the young lady; his eyes were fixed on his phone, as if he were looking at some information.

However...

Looking at her from behind, you could see that Xu Lin's phone displayed ESC's livestream schedule for this month.

"Oh? Really?"

Seeing that the white-haired girl was clearly concerned but pretended to be nonchalant, the young lady suddenly became interested and said with a grin.

"I'm not going live tomorrow—I'm taking a break!"

"Oh dear~ It's so strange not to be live streaming all of a sudden~ I wonder if Sister Yan will have time to go shopping with me."

Youyue deliberately drew out her words, her words full of suggestive meaning.

"Hmm... She seems to have an external collaboration tomorrow, so she probably won't have time."

Xu Lin seemed to have picked up on something from the young lady's tone, and he raised his head and said in a serious tone.

"Well, there's nothing I can do if Sister Yan is busy~ I'll listen to your song later, okay?"

After Miss Xu finished speaking, she picked up her nearly empty bowl and headed to the kitchen.

She wanted to see if Xu Lin, this hesitant guy, would back down and invite her on his own!

"How about I go shopping with you tomorrow? We can also buy some small toys for the cat while we're at it."

Xu Lin picked up the bowl and the empty plate and followed the young lady into the kitchen. As they washed the dishes, accompanied by the sound of water, she finally revealed her true intentions.

"Then let's forget it. Shopping with you is no fun. We can just buy cat toys online."

The young lady spoke listlessly, but Karyl behind her seemed to have heard the word "cat," raised her head slightly, and then went to play with her tail.

"Oh, this..."

Xu Lin was at a loss for words; she had never invited anyone out before!

"There's a movie coming out tomorrow, and it wouldn't be good for me to go alone, so I was wondering if you'd like to go with me."

Ultimately, it seems that being straightforward suits me better, so I simply said it directly.

"What genre? I'm not interested in popcorn movies."

Section 39, Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Date for Two (Miscellaneous)

"We're heading out now. You two are supposed to watch the house, okay?"

At 2 p.m. the next day, the young lady, who was about to leave, stood at the door and patted the heads of the two little ones one by one.

"You'd be better off hoping that the cockroaches in your house will scare away the thieves than expecting two to guard the house."

Outside the door, Xu Lin, who had already called the elevator, was grumbling with a black line on his face.

"What?! This is advance education! Do you even understand what advance education is?"

The young lady casually pushed the two little ones who wanted to go out together back home, closed the door, and gave Xu Lin a playful punch, her pouting lips seemingly condemning her lack of romantic understanding.

"No, the most valuable things in the house are those two and your bag. What would a thief think if they came in? Compared to the TV and computer, which are hard to move, it would be more profitable to just stuff the two little ones into your designer bag, right?"

Xu Lin has always been a very straight man, which can be seen from her remarks.

But actually, Xu Lin is quite good at charming girls; that's why he usually speaks like a walking textbook of straight men.

It's just something silly.

Otherwise, how could the young lady fall for a clueless, straight man who only knows how to make people angry?

Stop joking, okay?

"Can't you say something nice?!"

The young lady pouted and glared at Xu Lin.

"Well then, I have something to say. The security in our neighborhood is quite good. There's absolutely no way that Kailu and Nike could have been stolen."

The moment the words were spoken, the elevator doors opened, and that was the end of it.

However... who is our Miss Lin? She can't stand not teasing the young lady every day, and sure enough, she started again as soon as we got on the elevator.

"By the way, Miss, have you ever watched Detective Conan?"

"How could I not have seen it? I have the whole set of DVDs at home."

The young lady rolled her eyes.

"Do you remember the library murder case in Detective Conan, where the drug dealer librarian killed someone and hid the body on the top of the elevator..."

Before Xu Lin could finish speaking, his fate was sealed when two slender fingers pinched the flesh around his waist.

"You dare to continue?!"

"Oh, this..."

"Um!?"

"Of course I wouldn't dare."

He decisively admitted defeat.

"Hmph! If you say another weird thing, believe me, I won't go to the movies with you! You'll be so embarrassed if you go alone!"

The young lady snorted, turned around and got off the elevator, leaving Xu Lin with only her back view without looking back.

So that's what she's afraid of.

Xu Lin stood there, scratched his head, chuckled softly, and quickly chased after him.

She really didn't expect that the young lady would be afraid of Conan scenes from her childhood memories, after all, this person usually seemed fearless and hard to recognize.

I brought this up just now because we really had nothing else to talk about, so I just wanted to start a conversation. I didn't expect to step on a landmine right from the beginning. It was a really bad start.

Where to go first?

Xu Lin finally saw the young lady waiting there on tiptoe at the entrance of the residential area, and quickly went up to ask her.

"Hmm~ Let's go to the pedestrian street, how about grabbing some snacks first?"

Youyue acted as if nothing had happened, as if she had been waiting there all along, with a smile in her eyes and her fingers lightly touching her cheek.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Xu Lin readily agreed and picked up his phone to call a car.

Taxis are still easy to hail at 2 p.m., and the two of them got into the car in less than three minutes.

The pedestrian street wasn't crowded because it wasn't a weekend or holiday. Most of the people there were college students like them, out shopping together, and the whole place exuded youthful energy.

The stench of "normies" permeated the entire area, causing Xu Lin to frown.

"Ah! Xu Lin! I want to eat stinky tofu!"

The young lady cheered and charged straight toward her first target.

Okay, so the smell was from stinky tofu. Never mind then.

Xu Lin shrugged helplessly, but had no intention of following her. He just watched the young lady's back from afar.

"What, you don't like it?"

After buying her food, the young lady ate a piece while it was still hot, only to suddenly realize that Xu Lin was not beside her. She looked around and then saw her white hair, which stood out brightly in the sunlight and stood out from the crowd of black-haired people in the snack street.

"You know I don't eat this."

Xu Lin's brows furrowed even deeper, and she involuntarily took two steps back to avoid the young lady's attempt to feed her stinky tofu.

In her eyes, this was no different from feeding someone excrement; if the person wasn't a rich young lady, she would have already done it.

"It's okay, it smells bad but tastes good, just try it!"

The young lady smiled secretly and moved closer to Xu Lin, her expression full of delight.

"Even if it tastes good, it first has to be able to whet my appetite, just like sh..."

Xu Lin swallowed his words halfway through.

"Miss, let's make a deal. If you don't want to lose your appetite too, then stay away from me, okay?"

Xu Lin took two steps back again, raised his eyebrows, and threatened.

Okay~~

Xu Youyue pouted and drew out her words, looking dissatisfied.

She knew what Xu Lin was implying, so in order not to lose her appetite after just one bite, she resisted the urge to continue playing pranks.

That was enough; it served as revenge for Xu Lin scaring her in the elevator.

Yes, she did it on purpose!

She knew perfectly well that Xu Lin didn't eat stinky tofu, but she still insisted on feeding it to her!

Who told this jerk to bring up her childhood trauma in the elevator?! It makes her feel all creeped out whenever she rides an elevator, like she's afraid a corpse might suddenly fall out!

"Ugh..."

Xu Lin sighed softly.

What do you want to eat next?

"What do you want to eat? I'll eat the same thing as you!"

"Then let's go buy some pineapple fried rice, I'm a little hungry too."
