My girlfriend isn't as cute as me.

Wang Yuting asked, "Would you like some dessert? Let's have one tiramisu cake and one scoop of ice cream each, and we can swap them."

Lin Jiu reminded her, "Eating so much will make you fat."

"It's okay," Wang Yuting waved her hand. "We can lose weight by exercising together when we get home."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiu muttered, "What kind of sport..."

"You want to know?"

Wang Yuting's lips curled up slightly.

"Then I'll tell you when I get home."

"Where are you planning to go next? To the supermarket to buy groceries?"

After paying the bill at the front desk of the family restaurant, Lin Jiu went to the door and asked Wang Yuting.

Wang Yuting gently shook her head, puffing out her cheeks slightly, dissatisfied with Lin Jiu's lack of understanding of romance.

"Let's go to the supermarket later? It's a rare date, I'd like to do some shopping with you."

"it is good."

Lin Jiu reached out his hand to her.

Wang Yuting looked at him with some surprise, unable to understand for a moment what Lin Jiu was planning to do.

"Not going to hold hands?" Lin Jiu slowly withdrew her hand and shrugged. "Then forget it."

"Wait a minute, I want to hold your hand!"

Wang Yuting rushed forward and grabbed his hand, saying earnestly, "I must hold your hand."

She hadn't expected Lin Jiu to be so proactive, so much so that she hadn't reacted at first.

Just seconds ago, she was complaining that Lin Jiu didn't understand romance at all, but now, with his small hand in hers, she couldn't help but break into a silly, goofy grin, her IQ plummeting. Luckily, none of the sales clerks on the fourth floor saw her at that moment, otherwise, Manager Wang's image as a strong woman in their eyes would probably have collapsed. No matter how you looked at it, the girl standing there was a teenage girl in the throes of first love.

"hey-hey……"

Wang Yuting always felt that the day Lin Jiu would take the initiative to ask her to sleep with him was not far off.

We've held hands, kissed, and hugged quite a bit.

There was only one last line of defense separating the two.

The Maginot Line.

As the name suggests, if Wang Yuting's cavalry continues to advance, Lin Jiu's resistance will be easily defeated.

"Is today a workday?"

Lin Jiu held Wang Yuting's hand as they strolled around the sixth floor of the mall.

Although many people still watch him and Wang Yuting, he is now able to face these gazes with equanimity.

Wang Yuting has said so much to him; if he still lacks confidence in himself, then he would be letting her down.

A dazzling array of goods, shops with diverse design styles, and food, drinks, and entertainment all converge on the same floor.

Lin Jiu looked around and exclaimed, "Wow, so many people at this hour!"

"After all, this is one of the most prosperous cities in the country. Some people go to work, and some people rest. If everyone is working and no one is resting, then this world will become terrifying." Wang Yuting imagined what a living hell it would be if everyone in the world worked tirelessly through the night without rest or sleep.

Lin Jiu nodded.

The eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother.

Lin Jiu asked for leave from school and ran away to play outside.

Wang Yuting went even further, not only did she not go to work, but she also came to the office to meet her boyfriend.

These two are a perfect match.

"what……"

Wang Yuting suddenly stopped.

Lin Jiu turned around and saw that she was lying on a claw machine.

The claw machines don't contain adorable plush toys, but rather things like anime merchandise and character figurines.

"Hey, there are claw machines like this..."

Lin Jiu found it quite novel; this was the first time he had ever seen this type of claw machine. It was truly worthy of a large shopping mall.

However, there are only four of these claw machines; the rest contain normal plush toys, stuffed animals, U-shaped pillows, etc. Why are there pillows in claw machines? How do you grab them?

Wang Yuting waved enthusiastically: "Jiu, help me scan the code!"

"it is good."

Lin Jiu picked up her phone to scan the QR code, then frowned.

That's so expensive!

He glanced at Wang Yuting, who was in high spirits and had even rolled up her sleeves.

No, Sister Wang, that's not the case.

Wang Yuting's demeanor was as if she were about to punch through the claw machine and snatch the prize.

Others probably couldn't do it, but if it were her, Lin Jiu might be able to.

After all, Lin Jiu had witnessed Wang Yuting's fighting prowess firsthand.

To avoid this situation, Lin Jiu silently chose to pay.

"Watch me!"

Wang Yuting's goal is to get the most beautiful figurine in the claw machine.

Although Lin Jiu couldn't recognize many of the figurines in the claw machine, this one was the only one that left a deep impression on him.

"Kinomoto Sakura".

This is Wang Yuting's goal.

This is her favorite character, her idol.

Lin Jiu also wore her cosplay outfit.

Although she wasn't wearing a wig or using any props, Lin Jiu had already completed her first ever cosplay experience, and she probably wouldn't forget it... No, this was the last time she would wear a cosplay outfit! She wouldn't wear one again; it was too embarrassing!

Lin Jiu shook his head and focused his attention on Wang Yuting, watching her performance.

"Duck rush!"

Wang Yuting operated the claw machine and then showed Lin Jiu some amazing, entertaining tricks.

The robotic arm missed three times in a row; it didn't even touch the figure's box, let alone grab it.

Wang Yuting remained silent, took her breath, and continued with her fourth attempt.

This time, they came up empty-handed again.

Lin Jiu didn't make fun of her, because Wang Yuting was very serious.

He didn't think he had the right to laugh at someone who was giving it their all.

Whatever it may be, those who work hard should be rewarded.

"what……"

On her fifth attempt, Wang Yuting still didn't find the figurine box, but she unexpectedly caught an anime-related item.

A keychain.

"I got the guaranteed reward."

Wang Yuting echoed the lament of mobile game players.

You really don't even let go of the smallest guarantee!

"I see."

Lin Jiu had already figured out what was going on with this claw machine, and he said encouragingly, "You have five more chances, try again."

"it is good!"

Wang Yuting stretched her neck, held her breath slightly, and placed her hands on the control panel again.

Wang Yuting has incredibly fast reflexes. Even if someone throws a basketball at her from behind, she can easily catch it with her backhand and smash it back along the same trajectory. She excels at any sport, but... when faced with a sophisticated machine like a claw machine, she's like an old person, wishing she could just raise her hand and slap it.

No matter what kind of appliance it is, if there's a problem, just tap it.

Why can't I grab it?

"what……"

Wang Yuting failed again.

This time, however, she made progress; at least she managed to touch the box.

Next time will be fine, next time will be enough.

"Stop."

Just as Wang Yuting was having gambler's thoughts, Lin Jiu suddenly reached out and blocked her.

"Let me give it a try."

Lin Jiu smiled slightly, her smile as warm as the sun, making even the surrounding environment seem transparent.

That was Wang Yuting's familiar, professional smile, one she hadn't seen in a long time. Lin Jiu hadn't smiled like that since he quit his job at the convenience store. After all, that kind of smile was exhausting. To keep customers coming in and get them to pay, boosting sales, Lin Jiu had racked his brains. He found that whenever he smiled like that, people who came into the store would buy something, more or less. It seemed like not buying anything would be a disservice to that angelic smile, leaving him with an inexplicable sense of guilt.

However, Lin Jiu forgot one thing.

Wang Yuting was once attracted by his smile, and from then on, she embarked on the irreversible path of copper smelting.

Lin Jiu is now wearing makeup, showcasing her beauty with a perfect smile.

"I'm ready."

Wang Yuting's tense shoulders slowly relaxed, and she recovered from her tense state.
