Xia Liang smiled, took two steps towards the direction of the Jade Bird, and said frivolously: "Hehehe, young senior, how about giving it a try?"
"try what……"
The absent-minded Cuique came back to her senses a little, and after gradually understanding what Xia Liang meant, she looked at the various clothes in the store expressionlessly. After staring at the clothes for a while, she turned back and said to Xia Liang solemnly: "I won't wear it."
"Why?"
Xia Liang said with some regret: "Young senior, you don't have many casual clothes, right? And most of them are like what you are wearing, basically children's clothes. Why don't you try to dress up a little more maturely?"
"I'm different from you."
Frowning slightly, Kuija folded her hands helplessly and said earnestly: "For me, as long as the clothes can meet the needs of daily changes and washing, it is enough, and the appearance does not look too shabby. I don't need, and I don't like to dress so fancy."
"Have you worn it before?" Xia Liang suddenly asked.
This question made Cuiqiao's expression stiffen. After looking up at Xia Liang for a moment, he nodded helplessly: "Go through."
What she didn't say explicitly was that she had worn it not just once, but almost all of them.
Not to mention the popular styles in the past decade, she had worn every style of clothing that was popular among young girls at least twenty years ago at Anya's request.
If we want to trace the origin of this, we have to start from a long time ago.
From the very beginning, Anya's attitude towards Lin Yun becoming a magical girl was very positive.
At first, when she first met Lin Yun who had turned into a magical girl, she thought she was a girl from another place, but when Lin Yun confessed her identity, she was overjoyed at first, and then readily accepted this fact.
Anya has never had any thoughts like "it's disgusting for a boy to become a magical girl". Rather, she seems to like Lin Yun more in the magical girl state.
To put it in Anya's favorite cheesy love words:
"My favorite boy is Lin Yun, and my favorite girl is Cornflower. Adding the two together, I like her the most."
Because of this, Anya is actually very keen on dressing up Lin Yun who has turned into a magical girl.
At first, she just matched some of her old clothes, but as time went on, it became a casual selection while shopping, and finally it evolved into a weird tradition she proposed called "Cornflower Image Update Day."
Every once in a while, the Old Fangting City team would take Lin Yun, who had transformed into a magical girl, to pick out clothes and customize some new casual clothes for her.
Most magical girls look pretty good after transformation, and although their styles are different, most of them are cute, pretty, and exquisite. However, Cornflower's appearance is rare. To put it in the words of her former teammates, she looks "aristocratic" and "like a daughter of an aristocrat from nowhere."
Several teammates, especially Anya, treated Lin Yun, who had turned into a magical girl, almost as a dress-up doll and tried all kinds of outfits on her.
Therefore, although she herself was not interested, she could not deny that she had worn all kinds of women's fashions. In fact, because she had worn them so many times, she had become completely accustomed to wearing all kinds of skirts in this way.
“Sure enough!”
Hearing Cuiqiao's answer, Xia Liang clenched his fists excitedly: "It's not the first time anyway. I also want to see what the young senior looks like in other clothes. Try them on and have a try!"
"Yes, I want to see it too!" the clerk next to him responded.
Cuique looked at the two people in front of her, and remembered Xia Liang's inexplicable smile and proposal in the restaurant before, and immediately knew: this was what she had planned long ago.
However, her purpose of accompanying Xia Liang today was to make him happy. The experiences in the morning were not very pleasant, so there was nothing wrong with complying with Xia Liang's wishes at this time.
"Say it beforehand."
She raised her eyes and stared at Xia Liang, and said solemnly: "I don't wear clothes that reveal too much skin."
--"Very good!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Liang and the shop assistants high-fived and cheered, as if they had solved some problem. The atmosphere was very lively.
Then, led by Xia Liang and suggested by the clerk, the two began to have a heated discussion about what kind of clothes would be more suitable for Cuique's temperament and body shape.
Off-shoulder jackets, suspender skirts, cartoon sweatshirts, sweaters...all kinds of clothes were handed to Cuique by Xia Liang, and then Cuique put them on with an indifferent look on her face and walked out of the dressing room with a cold expression.
And no matter how cold her reaction was, the enthusiasm of the other two did not diminish in the slightest.
Based on the clothes Delphinium was wearing, the salesperson personally changed Delphinium's hairstyle into several simple ones, including but not limited to double ponytails, a bun, and three braids... while Xia Liang held his mobile phone on the side and took pictures from various angles.
Looking at the girl in unfamiliar clothes in the mirror and listening to the flattery of the shop assistant beside her, Delphinium opened her eyes slightly and suddenly felt as if time was out of place.
It was as if I had returned to the time when I went out with the members of my old team, and the people chatting and laughing outside the locker room were Anya, Margaret, and Su Shengzi...
However, this feeling only lasted for a short moment before she came back to her senses and her thoughts returned from the past to the present.
"How is it, young senior?"
After taking the photo, Xia Liang walked out, held Cuique's shoulders, and looked into the mirror: "I think this one is the most satisfactory."
Delphinium looked in the mirror and saw that she was wearing a short-hem, loose-fitting, long-sleeved cardigan jacket, a skirt with a high waistline, white socks and canvas shoes on her feet, which gave her a student-like temperament.
Her appearance as a magical girl was somewhat young, but with this outfit she looked a bit like a little adult, and she looked a lot more mature, at least like a middle school student.
It was this point that made Delphinium nod subconsciously after a brief silence and admit: "I think it's good."
It's not just perfunctory, but I'm really satisfied with it.
In this way, after nearly an hour of trying, they finally stopped because the clerk left other customers aside and it was really a bad influence. Cuique and Xia Liang walked out of the store carrying a few packaging bags.
By this time, it was already afternoon.
"Ah, satisfied, satisfied!"
Holding the phone, Xia Liang walked forward while flipping through the photos he had taken before: "Normally, it is impossible to see the young senior wearing these clothes, but now I can save them all."
“…I hope you can delete it.”
Holding the paper bag, Delphinium walked along the street in small steps: "If you really don't want to delete them, then be a little more careful and don't leak these photos to other members."
"Eh? Isn't it good to let Xiaolu take a look?"
Xia Liang raised his phone and shook it: "I think she will be very happy to see it. After all, the little senior is very cute."
"You know what I mean."
Delphinium rolled her eyes at her and said, "No means no."
"So this is our secret?"
Xia Liang smiled and put the phone to his chin: "This way, we have more secrets between us."
In response to her deliberately provocative words, Delphinium simply remained silent.
If you answer with too much concern, it will undoubtedly encourage Xia Liang's playfulness; if you answer with too little concern, Xia Liang will feel coldly treated.
The two walked along the pedestrian street for a while, crossed the lane they came from, and returned to another block. Kui Ching didn't say anything, so Xia Liang didn't ask any questions, but just asked some questions from time to time and chatted with her.
Not long after, as they turned a corner, Delphinium said softly, "We're here."
"Where?" Xia Liang asked with some confusion.
"Our next stop is a privately run pour-over coffee shop."
Delphinium recalled as she said, "It was also the place where the Fangting City team used to meet after school. I don't know if it's still in operation, but let's go and take a look."
"Just like we had to meet on the rooftop of the office building before?" Xia Liang asked thoughtfully.
"That's about right." Delphinium answered lightly.
"Hey...young senior, you actually met in a place like this before." Xia Liang said curiously, "Is there any special consideration?"
"Is it weird? Going to a cafe shouldn't be unusual."
"It's not that going to a cafe is unusual, but the kind of cafe you guys came to seems a little..."
As Xia Liang spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction across the street: "Look, this should be the one, right?"
"What kind of cafe? It should be just an ordinary..."
Cuique looked in the direction of Xia Liang's finger and saw that there was indeed a cafe in the place she remembered. But when she saw the cafe's sign and decoration clearly, she seemed to have forgotten what she was going to say and swallowed the second half of her sentence.
In her memory, the location across the street should have been a small and exquisite Western-style coffee shop. Business was a little slow, but the atmosphere and equipment inside were very exquisite.
But now, what she saw was not the store she remembered.
A young girl in a black and white dress uniform was standing at the door, enthusiastically advertising to passers-by; the overall decoration style of the storefront was light pink, which looked quite girlish; the name of the cafe was written in cursive on the sign, but the logo next to it showed a mini black and white dress.
This type of skirt has a specific name in the public's perception: maid outfit.
——It was a maid cafe.

"…It seems that the previous store is no longer there."
After staring at the storefront not far away for a moment, Cuique turned around and wanted to take Xia Liang away: "But come to think of it, after so many years, it's strange that these stores can still exist. Let's go."
She pushed Xia Liang's arm, signaling him to follow her, but found that Xia Liang did not move.
Not only that, when Delphinium was about to leave, Xia Liang grabbed her sleeve with his backhand, fixing Delphinium in place, and she was unable to move forward for a while.
"Try it, young senior."
She looked at Delphinium with a smile: "Since we are here now, why don't we go and take a look?"
Delphinium couldn't help but shook her head: "No, I think..."
——"Are the two little sisters over there interested in our store?"
Just at this moment, the girl at the entrance of the cafe suddenly took two steps closer to them and said loudly, "Today we have a special event. In addition to discounts on certain products, you can also get rewards by completing mini-games!"
Her loud voice interrupted Delphinium's original words and blocked her refusal.
"Eh? Really? What kind of activity is that?"
In contrast, Xia Liang had already excitedly run to the store entrance and chatted with the clerk behind the sign, asking: "I've never been to a maid cafe before, what exactly do I do?"
"Well... these are just some common little games. They're not difficult. As long as you beat the sisters in our store, you can get rewards."
The clerk at the door said kindly, "Even if you don't win, you can still get a reward as long as the sisters in the store recognize your performance."
"As for what today's event is specifically about - you see."
She pointed to the French window on the side and looked through it into the store. She could see a group of young female shop assistants in colorful clothes walking back and forth in the store: "Our theme this time is Magical Girls Day."
Magical Girl Day.
The moment she said this word, Cuiqiao thought to herself that something was wrong, but she was still a step too late, as Xia Liang's eyes were already shining.
"That sounds interesting!"
