Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

Xu Lin gave her a strange look.

"what?"

The young lady was taken aback, not understanding what she meant.

"Oh, you mean tomatoes? I thought you meant cherry tomatoes."

But Xu Lin had already realized what was happening and joked with a smile.

"Hey, I'm shopping for groceries, be serious!"

Xu Youyue smiled too.

Sometimes, even mundane tasks like grocery shopping can become more vibrant because of the people around you.

Chapter 79, Section 80: These two no longer cared about indirect kissing.

"Xu Lin! Xu Lin! Come and see what this is!"

They were still in the supermarket, but for some reason, they ended up in the seafood section.

"This is..."

Xu Lin stood beside the young lady, slightly bending his knees, and together they carefully observed the strange creature lying motionless in the water tank.

It was a creature with a dark blue exterior and an oval body, looking like some kind of alien. It lay motionless in the water tank, occasionally blowing out a few bubbles to indicate that it was still fresh.

"This looks like a sea cucumber?"

Xu Lin racked his brains, searching through the knowledge in his mind, before finally remembering what kind of creature this strangely familiar Wan Ying'er was.

Although it's unclear what kind of sea cucumber it is, judging from its unusual shape, it's definitely a sea cucumber.

"Don't lie to me, no sea cucumber looks like that. Aren't sea cucumbers usually long, black, and soft?"

The young lady looked at Xu Lin with suspicion, somewhat doubting that this little brat was trying to fool her.

"This really is a sea cucumber, but I don't know if this variety is edible. I'd better just buy other vegetables."

Xu Lin sighed. She usually watched some animal science videos and knew that sea cucumbers could come in all sorts of bizarre and varied forms, but she didn't know if they were edible.

Our ancestors didn't write it in the Classic of Mountains and Seas!

"Oh, what should we buy next?"

The young lady pouted; she wanted to look around a little longer. This seaside supermarket was different from the ones in the city; it had many novel species that she didn't usually see, which was quite interesting.

"Um..."

Xu Lin pondered for a while.

"There's nothing else worth buying. Let's go back; we can't carry any more."

Looking at the almost full shopping cart, I decided to head home.

"Good~"

Xu Youyue obediently responded, but then darted to the ice cream stand next door and shouted at her.

"Xu Lin, Xu Lin! Do you want some ice cream?"

"Ah... okay then."

"Then I'll go buy it!"

"I'll go pay the bill first."

The two split up and went to buy their own things.

Even though the vegetables filled two large bags, it didn't cost much, so Xu Lin paid directly and waited for someone at the exit. The cashier who checked her order even asked if she needed delivery service, but Xu Lin declined.

The journey isn't far, and if I walk slowly, I can carry it all back. Although I don't need those ten-odd yuan, I'll still try to save money wherever I can.

"How long did you wait?"

Just as Xu Lin was about to take out his phone to check the time, Xu Youyue came around from another exit, holding an ice cream in each hand, and even took a bite with a smile.

"It won't be long, let's finish eating first before going back."

Xu Lin glanced at the two large bags of things at his feet, then at the ice cream in the young lady's hand. Hmm, he decided to eat it first.

Otherwise it will melt.

Here, this is for you.

The young lady looked at the ice cream in her hand, which she had already taken a bite out of, hesitated for a moment, and then handed a milky white one with a hint of green to Xu Lin.

"Minty?"

"Mine is lemon-flavored!"

"It suits you perfectly www"

Looking at Xu Youyue's cheerful and childlike appearance, Xu Lin felt his mood improve considerably and teased her with a smile.

"What do you mean?! Are you saying I'm easily jealous?!"

Xu Youyue immediately widened her eyes and glared at Xu Lin.

"No, no, no, I meant that you are like this lemon-flavored ice cream, refreshing, lively, cute and sweet."

"Oh, this..."

Although Xu Lin's intervention was timely, Xu Youyue seemed unaccustomed to it and looked surprised.

"Where did you go for your studies? Why are you talking so strangely today? It's really odd!"

As she finished speaking, Xu Youyue's voice trailed off, as if she were a little shy.

"I watched two episodes of If You Are the One yesterday, and I must say, it was actually quite interesting."

Xu Lin shrugged.

"Hahahahahahaha"

The young lady burst into laughter, forgetting even to eat her ice cream.

After a while.

"Let's go, it's time to go back."

Xu Lin carried a large bag in one hand and struggled to walk forward.

Although I had only walked a few steps, I had already deeply understood that there was indeed a reason why the ancients invented the carrying pole.

These two large bags, one on the left and one on the right, weren't too difficult to lift, except that the plastic bag straps were a bit tight on my hands.

"Shall I get you one bag?"

The young lady looked at her small frame in comparison to the two large bags and felt a little sorry for them.

If Xu Lin were still a boy, perhaps she wouldn't have said that, but now...

There's always a sense of guilt about being lazy.

"Um, okay."

Xu Lin didn't try to push herself. Her hand was already a little sore before she even left the supermarket, and she was really worried that she wouldn't be able to keep going.

"Let's take this bag, one for each of us."

"Ok?"

"This bag contains potatoes, and it's quite heavy. Could you help me carry some of it?"

Xu Lin stopped and gave two of the plastic bag straps to the young lady, and the two of them carried it together.

"www is still so stubborn."

Xu Youyue teased her with a smile.

"No, it's just that this bag is quite heavy, which is why I need you to share some of the load. Otherwise, I won't be able to maintain the balance."

"Okay, okay, yes, yes, our Izanagi is the best!"

Xu Youyue brushed her off; Xu Lin's stubbornness was a normal occurrence for him, and she would be surprised if he softened his stance.

"By the way, your cat needs to get vaccinated, right?"

"Yes, it's been almost a month in the blink of an eye. I'm going to get vaccinated on the 5th."

"Then let's go together."

"Good~"

Although their daily interactions were simple and uneventful, Xu Youyue always felt a subtle sweetness in her heart.

Perhaps, this is the kind of love that's best suited for her.

Although they haven't even confirmed their relationship yet.

. . . . . . .

"Are you two preparing for winter? You bought so much!"

When the two returned to the guesthouse, the first person to greet them was Liver, whom they didn't know very well, but rather the manager from Northeast China.

"I accidentally bought too much, but with so many of us, we don't need to worry about not being able to finish it."

Xu Lin rubbed his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

She is the typical type who likes to hoard food. Ever since she started living with Xu Youyue, her refrigerator has always been full, and she often has to clean out some rotten vegetables.

"You don't need to buy so many..."

The operations girl muttered something under her breath as she took the bag, then turned and shouted into the room.

"Hamster! Fuli! Come give me a hand! Put these vegetables in the fridge!"

"I'm coming!"

Xu Lin and the young lady didn't need to worry about what happened next. As soon as they entered the house, they collapsed onto the sofa. Xu Lin was alright and still paid a little attention to his manners, but the young lady was just completely sprawled out there.
