My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

"Yeah, it would be so cute if Mio-chan wore that."

When Hirasawa Yui heard Dongfang Bai's words and compared them with Akiyama Mio, her eyes lit up.

"Hmph, Mio looks good in anything!"

Ritsu Tainaka said proudly from the side, after all, the two were childhood friends who had grown up together, and Ritsu knew very well how cute her friend Mio Akiyama was.

"Absolutely not! It's impossible! Wearing this kind of dress makes me feel like I might... might..."

Akiyama Mio's face turned bright red, as if she had thought of something. Her entire head turned into a steam oven, and a large amount of white steam suddenly burst out.

She felt her legs go weak and she could barely stand. Just imagining herself wearing such a dress made her so shy she wanted to die, let alone actually wearing it.

"Wow! This jacket is so cool!"

Hirasawa Yui suddenly picked up a black coat from the other side. It had slightly shiny decorations on it, and there was a black belt-like tie at the back.

"Wait a minute, Wei, isn't this for men?"

Ritsu's questioning voice startled Hirasawa, who took a closer look and realized that the black coat was indeed for men.

"Hey, how about letting Bai Jun try it on too?"

Kotobuki Tsumugi's suggestion made Akiyama Mio and the others' eyes light up. Speaking of which, Dongfang Bai wasn't very good at dressing. He always wore comfortable and convenient clothes and rarely went out to buy clothes himself.

"I think I'll pass... You guys can choose."

Dongfang Bai's lips twitched. Looking at the coat, he seemed to recall unpleasant memories and unconsciously took two steps back.

Upon seeing this long black coat, he couldn't help but recall his own teenage years when he was still quite fond of this style of black coat, finding its dark aesthetic very cool.

For example, wearing a black trench coat, the long trench coat fluttering in the wind, covering one's cheek with one hand, and wearing a white medical goggle over the left eye, as if controlling some special power.

Looking back now, I feel so ashamed of myself that I want to die. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle, and I feel like banging my head against the wall.

"Hey? Try it on!"

Hirasawa Yui slightly curved her lips and gently tugged at the hem of Dongfang Bai's clothes, as if making a request. She was quite curious about what Dongfang Bai would look like in these clothes.

"Reconsider! Reconsider!"

Ritsu Tainaka also moved closer to Higashikata, and Kotobuki Tsumugi, seeing the other two join in, happily followed suit as well. Actually, she just wanted to imitate the other two…

"Hey, you guys...?"

Akiyama Mio stood at the back, bewildered. The three of them squeezed through together, resulting in Dongfang Bai being squeezed inside. She remained very calm and did not follow them.

However! It was still incredibly eye-catching, with people around looking at them with extremely strange eyes. After all, Dongfang Bai was standing next to three beautiful girls, which was definitely conspicuous.

"I never would have guessed that someone so handsome would be such a jerk!"

"You really can't judge a book by its cover."

"Damn, I'm so envious. Let's explode, you social butterflies!"

The whispers that the people around him thought were just private conversations were actually perfectly clear to Dongfang Bai. The gossip was unbearable.

"Alright alright."

Dongfang Bai pushed the others aside and accepted the black coat under Pingze Wei's excited gaze. The design of the coat was indeed good, with light gray patterns and a shawl that suited her aesthetic.

Of course, I'm not referring to any kind of adolescent aesthetic...

A minute later, Dongfang Bai, wearing a black overcoat, walked out of the fitting room. The others stared at him in amazement, speechless.

The black coat, resembling a suit, draped over Dongfang Bai's body. With his hands in his pockets and a calm expression, his pure black, tousled hair and pupils exuded an inexplicable and captivating aura.

"So handsome!"

Hirasawa Yui couldn't help but say this, clapping her hands as if she had already imagined that the effect would be quite good after Dongfang Bai put it on, but she didn't expect it to be so unexpected.

"It really is...very beautiful."

Akiyama Mio praised him somewhat blankly, then blushed and looked away, not wanting to stare at Dongfang Bai.

"Then let's buy it."

Dongfang Bai saw that the others seemed to be doing quite well, so it must be pretty good. Anyway, the royalties had arrived, so buying some clothes wouldn't be a problem.

"Wait, this coat costs 20 Japanese yen...?!"

"So expensive...!"

Ritsu Tainaka stared blankly at the price tag on the coat, rubbing his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things, but it clearly read '20 Japanese yen'.

The price is approximately 13,000 Chinese Yuan. While it's not particularly expensive, it's still extremely expensive for these ordinary high school girls.

"Well..."

Dongfang Bai felt that the clothes were quite comfortable, and besides, it was only 20 Japanese yen, so it wasn't exactly expensive.

"Wei? Where did you get this dress from?"

Akiyama Mio asked the bewildered Hirasawa Yui, who thought for a moment and then pointed to the 'suit section' over there, and she even took one down from the very top.

This child is really...

"They feel quite comfortable to wear, so I'll buy them."

Dongfang Bai slightly twisted her waist. Although the coat was long enough to reach her knees, it was indeed very light and thin. The silk was very comfortable and not stiff.

"Huh?"

Akiyama Mio was taken aback, and then she watched as Dongfang Bai slowly took off his clothes, said something to the waiter, and then, within a few minutes, he had a bag of clothes in his hand...

"Are we just going to buy it now?"

Ritsu Tainaka's lips twitched. She didn't know how to comment on the black-haired boy in front of her. He actually bought 20 Japanese yen just like that.

"Because they're very comfortable to wear..."

Dongfang Bai doesn't really have any standards when buying clothes. Generally speaking, he's satisfied as long as the clothes are comfortable to wear. As for the style or price, he doesn't care much about it.

Of course, he would occasionally wear sportswear, because it was quite loose, but he would never go out in sportswear or a short-sleeved shirt and shorts...

Even if he doesn't care about style and brand, he still has to meet the most basic aesthetic standards. After all, he is a "rich person," and if he is so unrefined, he will be called a "nouveau riche."

"Yes, Bai Jun does look quite good in his clothes."

Kotobuki Tsumugi also disagreed, after all, she thought the clothes looked pretty good on Dongfang Bai. If you like it, just buy it, that's a common sense.

"Hey, 20 Neon Dollars."

Hirasawa Yui seemed to be stunned for a while, then suddenly froze. After thinking carefully, she realized that she only had 50,000 Japanese yen on her, which she had only intended to use to buy a guitar.

The fact that Dongfang Bai could buy a very good quality guitar with just a casual piece of clothing makes one feel somewhat wistful in comparison.

"Mio, I felt something was off before. Don't you think there's something strange about Tsumugi and Shiro-kun?"

Tainaka Ritsu quietly pulled Akiyama Mio aside and spoke to her, and the other nodded in agreement.

After buying snacks and other small items, the group continued to wander around the streets. The girls seemed very happy, but they appeared to have forgotten something.

"Ugh……"

Dongfang Bai sighed slightly. The four girls had completely forgotten that they came out to buy Wei's guitar, and Wei herself had also forgotten her purpose.

But seeing how much fun they were having, I felt a little reluctant to disturb them.

Well, I have plenty of time today, so I'll spend more time with them. I haven't really explored the central shopping mall area much, so I can familiarize myself with it and maybe come back sometime in the future.

"Hey! Shiro-chan, Shiro-chan! Look, look!"

Hirasawa Yui shook her shoulders, uttering incredibly embarrassing nicknames, but she didn't feel there was anything wrong with it at all.

Yui Hirasawa uses very cute nicknames for her friends. For example, Mio Akiyama is called "Mio-chan" and Tsumugi Kotobuki is called "Tsumugi".

"Okay, okay, what's wrong now?"

Dongfang Bai felt as if he had gained a younger sister. Pingze Wei pointed to the arcade in front of her with an excited smile. It was full of electronic game equipment.

Speaking of which, Dongfang Bai hasn't been to an arcade in a long time, and now he's starting to look forward to it. Arcades in Japan usually have a lot of fighting games.

Especially the once-popular fighting games 'The King of Fighters' and 'True Sister'. Dongfang Bai has only played The King of Fighters and has never played True Sister, but he has heard that they are also very interesting.

"That's not a good idea..."

Akiyama Mio is a typical well-behaved girl. She has never been to a video game arcade before because it is a place frequented by delinquent teenagers.

0 ····Requesting flowers···· ········

"Hey, isn't this pretty interesting?"

"law!"

Ritsu Tainaka, on the other hand, didn't feel anything was wrong. She had only been here a few times, and it had been a long time since her last visit, so she really wanted to go in and take a look.

"Tsumugi, what do you think!?"

Akiyama Mio seemed to be trying to win over her allies, but Kotobuki Tsumugi looked excited and expectant, showing that she was more interested in this place than anyone else.

Her family also owns a large company, and her father is the president, so she received a very good education from a young age and is a typical young lady living in a real-life wealthy family.

She had never been to a video game arcade before. The first time she went to a fast food restaurant was when Akiyama Mio and Tainaka Ritsu took her there.

..... .. .......

I feel like I'm full of curiosity about everything, like a curious child, wanting to try this and see that.

"Oh!"

As soon as Kotobuki Tsumugi entered the arcade, she was captivated by the dazzling array of arcade games she had never seen before.

Excitement made her cheeks flush, and her little eyes couldn't stay still, looking here and there.

"It's a claw machine!"

Yui Hirasawa and Ritsu Tainaka were the happiest, and they ran together to the nearest claw machine. Tsumugi Kotobuki saw this and quickly followed.

Only Akiyama Mio and Dongfang Bai were left standing there, unsure of what to do. In the end, they could only sigh slightly and follow.

"Mio-chan! Look how cute that cat is!"
