Eriri even dared to draw a draft of herself and the other person doing that kind of thing, so of course Sayuri Sawamura was worried that her daughter might have been deceived.

So she decided to follow them and see if they were any bad people. If she found out they weren't bad people, then Sayuri Sawamura wouldn't interfere anymore.

……

In front of the bus stop on the pedestrian street, Eriri stood at the platform entrance, playing on her phone while waiting for Qin Chuan to arrive.

Of course, although she appears to be playing on her phone, her frequent glances around reveal that she is actually quite nervous.

At exactly 10 o'clock, Qin Chuan appeared in front of Eriri—his clothes were very ordinary, unlike Eriri's, which had obviously been carefully dressed up.

However, because of Qin Chuan's outstanding appearance, even without deliberately dressing up, his everyday clothes make him look handsome enough, and he and Eriri are quite a good match.

Eriri had been waiting at the platform entrance for quite a while without anyone coming. Several people around her were wondering whether to strike up a conversation, but after seeing Qin Chuan, they all lost heart.

On one hand, Qin Chuan's appearance was enough to overwhelm most people, and on the other hand, Qin Chuan's inexplicable aura made others somewhat hesitant to approach him.

Although Qin Chuan did not deliberately display his imposing aura, the confidence brought by his powerful strength made many people feel that they could not compete with him in any way just by looking at him.

"They're too slow."

Eriri watched Qin Chuan walk leisurely towards her and couldn't help but complain—she had been waiting alone at the platform entrance for more than ten minutes.

"Didn't we agree on ten o'clock? Isn't this perfect?"

......... ... 0

Qin Chuan checked his phone; the time was exactly 10:00 AM, meaning he had arrived neither too early nor too late.

"...Never mind, it's not important."

Since Qin Chuan was right, Eriri could only nod helplessly—Qin Chuan hadn't actually eaten any; he had just timed it perfectly.

She glanced around, and although she didn't see anyone she knew, she couldn't help but ask Qin Chuan:

"You didn't tell anyone else, did you? Like those guys who had lunch with you..."

Don't be fooled by Eriri and Qin Chuan's seemingly casual, shopping-loving attire; the place Eriri invited Qin Chuan out to go is not one she can easily tell anyone else.

Although Eriri didn't think Qin Chuan was the type to tell everyone everything, she couldn't help but ask because of her unease.

"Don't worry, I didn't tell anyone. Even Shayou and Alice don't know what I'm doing here."

Qin Chuan nodded. Seeing that Ying Lili looked very nervous, he also used his "qi" to sweep around the surrounding crowd.

However, this glance caught Qin Chuan's attention to a rather special person.

It was a woman hiding in the crowd, wearing a hat and a mask—although at first glance she was just a passerby, Qin Chuan keenly noticed that her exposed facial features were very similar to Eriri's.

With her long black hair, Qin Chuan immediately guessed her identity.

Chapter 230 The Special Toy Store

Having read Eriri's work before his transmigration, Qin Chuan immediately realized that the person wearing a hat and mask must be Sawamura Sayuri.

As Eriri's mother, Sayuri Sawamura naturally cares a lot about Eriri, but Qin Chuan felt that she wasn't the type to stalk her own daughter.

Qin Chuan was naturally unaware that Eriri had drawn strange sketches of herself and Qin Chuan in her room, which caused Sawamura Sayuri to feel worried and thus take her actions today.

However, with Sayuri Sawamura by his side, Qin Chuan thought of what Eriri was going to do today, and couldn't help but look at Eriri with a strange expression:

"Eri, how about we call it a day?"

"Huh? How can we just let it go like this? I mustered up a lot of courage to bring you along."

Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Eriri's face showed a hint of dissatisfaction and a mysterious blush.

She shook her head, her golden twin tails swaying as she spoke in a resolute tone.

"If I give up today, I might find it hard to muster the courage again! So I have to do this today!"

"Alright, since this is what you asked for..."

Qin Chuan shrugged helplessly. He had already tried to dissuade Eriri, but if Sawamura Sayuri saw what Eriri was about to do, it would be none of his business.

As for why I didn't tell Eriri about Sayuri Sawamura following her...

Qin Chuan felt that if he told her, wouldn't the atmosphere between Eriri and Sayuri Sawamura become very awkward?

He was doing this for the sake of the atmosphere between Eriri and her mother, not to make fun of them.

……

Soon, led by Eriri, they arrived at their destination.

Hmm... a rather unique toy store.

According to Eriri, she had wanted to come here to gather material for a long time, but she was afraid to come alone, so she hadn't had the chance to come.

After all, Eriri draws doujinshi, and these kinds of scenes often involve some rather subtle plot developments.

It's normal for Eriri to overthink things and feel insecure.

After that, Eriri tried to come and gather material many times, but she was unsuccessful. In the end, she thought of finding someone to come with her.

It's best if this person is a boy, because if a girl comes with me, she might end up being the one delivering the food. Only a boy can give me a sense of security.

However, Eriri hadn't been in contact with boys for a long time, so she kept this idea to herself until Qin Chuan appeared.

Qin Chuan is a very strong boy, a fact that Eriri confirmed a few days ago when she observed the mana replenishment process.

Furthermore, since Qin Chuan knew her secret and she had seen all of Qin Chuan, the choice naturally fell to Qin Chuan.

"This...this is the kind of toy that only exists in notebooks..."

Upon entering the store, Eriri's face immediately turned bright red—despite her seemingly chaotic mind, she had never actually experienced anything like this before.

The most outrageous thing she ever did was witness Qin Chuan and Irisviel replenishing their mana up close, which almost made her faint with embarrassment.

He is a giant in theory but a dwarf in practice—and this theory even needs to be further limited to the two-dimensional world.

In reality, these toy stores are practically empty, and the staff know they need to protect customer privacy, so they won't approach customers unnecessarily.

At least Qin Chuan saw that the female shop assistant in this store was sitting at the cashier and had no intention of coming out to serve customers. She was just waiting for customers to choose their items and come over to pay.

The kind of plot that Eriri was worried about, which only happens in doujinshi, ultimately only happens in doujinshi.

However, Qin Chuan was more curious about Sawamura Sayuri's situation outside the door than Eriri, who was already picking out things.

Using his ability to detect "qi", Qin Chuan could sense that Sawamura Sayuri's every move outside the door was under his perception, and he could feel that Sawamura Sayuri was very conflicted at the moment.

She was worried about her daughter and wanted to go into the store to check on her—but there was no one else in the store, and Eriri would likely spot her if she went in.

So for now, she can only wait outside, probably thinking that if Eriri doesn't come out for a long time, it won't be too late to go in and check.

"Come here quickly, help me see how to use this thing."

Just as Qin Chuan was sensing Sawamura Sayuri's movements, Eriri's deliberately lowered voice came from ahead...

Qin Chuan looked up and saw Eriri holding a box containing strange toys, waving at him with a blushing face.

It can only be said that observing Qin Chuan replenishing his magic power had completely erased the sense of distance between Qin Chuan and Eriri.

Eriri even dared to ask Qin Chuan to discuss how to use these toys with her.

However, since Qin Chuan wasn't at a disadvantage anyway, he shrugged and walked over.

……

Half an hour later, Qin Chuan and Eriri came out of the toy store.

Meanwhile, Sayuri Sawamura, who had been anxiously waiting near the shop, finally saw Eriri leave. She initially breathed a sigh of relief, but then her heart skipped a beat:

"That boy and Eriri stayed in the store for half an hour... Could they have done those things?"

If Qin Chuan knew about Sawamura Sayuri's concerns, he would definitely scoff at them—half an hour is nowhere near enough.

However, Sayuri Sawamura was too worried to think clearly. After walking with Eriri and Qin Chuan for a while, Sayuri Sawamura noticed that Eriri's movements did not seem to be affected in any way.

It doesn't seem like they did anything strange... they really just spent half an hour in the store discussing toys.

At this point, Sayuri Sawamura roughly guessed why Eriri would go to that kind of place. She probably wanted to gather material, and maybe there would be a scene involving toys in the next volume 2.1.

But going to that kind of place with a boy is too much... Sawamura Sayuri has never heard of Eriri's relationship with any boy suddenly developing to this point.

For a moment, Sayuri Sawamura felt as if her daughter had suddenly grown up.

Eriri was unaware that her mother was standing not far behind her, looking heartbroken. She was carrying an opaque shopping bag filled with several toys she had bought, and her cheeks were flushed.

After walking with Qin Chuan for quite a while, Eriri finally managed to let the blush on her face fade, and then looked at Qin Chuan:

"It's already noon. As a way of thanking you for accompanying me, let me treat you to lunch."

As she spoke, Eriri looked at Qin Chuan nervously, seemingly worried that he would refuse with an excuse such as "I have to go home for lunch."

Chapter 231 It's just about booking a room

In the family restaurant, Qin Chuan and Eriri sat together, looking at the menu on the table.

Eriri was clearly very nervous. Sitting opposite Qin Chuan, she didn't dare to look him in the eye and looked very shy.

Qin Chuan thought it was probably because the waiter mistook them for a couple when they came in.

To Qin Chuan's surprise, although he was too lazy to deny their relationship, Eriri opened her mouth but then closed it.

It seems they don't intend to deny it.

"It seems that what happened before had a great impact on her."

Given that they had only known each other for a few days, the only reason Qin Chuan could think of was that the previous incident had a huge impact on Eriri.

Eriri's opinion of Qin Chuan is now somewhat confused, which is why she doesn't know how to refute the assumption that the waiter thought they were a couple.

However, because Eriri was too nervous at the time, she did not notice that there was a lone customer near their seats.

Sawamura Sayaka naturally followed, keeping her eyes on Eriri and Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan could almost imagine how Eriri would be questioned by Sayuri Sawamura after returning home—he figured the outcome would be quite interesting.

……

Is there anywhere else you'd like to go?

After lunch, Qin Chuan and Eriri walked out of the family restaurant, and Qin Chuan asked her.

Eriri invited him mainly because she wanted to go to that strange toy store to gather information, but she was worried about her own safety, so she called Qin Chuan over.

Qin Chuan came here just to have some fun, and he didn't even expect to see Sayuri Sawamura tailing Eriri, which made things even more interesting.

Now that Eriri has bought what she wanted from that toy store, Qin Chuan naturally wants to ask Eriri about her next plans.

If there was nothing else, he planned to go back and help Ogiwara Sayu and Irisviel move their luggage.

Although the two of them arrived at Qin Chuan's house almost empty-handed, they seemed happy to help Qin Chuan move all his belongings from his old house to his new home.

When he left home, he saw that Sayu Ogiwara and Irisviel had packed a huge amount of stuff, which couldn't fit in several suitcases.

"What? You really want to go back that badly?"

Eriri was a little unhappy when she heard this, but soon she turned to look at Qin Chuan and said in a low voice.

"Um...actually, I also want to test the effects of these toys..."

That's a rather intriguing statement—try out the effects of these toys? These things are clearly not meant to be played with outside.

As for inviting Qin Chuan to his home... Qin Chuan probably wouldn't be that bold as Eriri to play with these toys when her parents are home.

"Why...why are you looking at me like that?!"

Noticing the strange look Qin Chuan was giving her, Eriri's twin tails stood on end, and she muttered in a slightly resentful voice.

"You know what I'm drawing, it's all about finding inspiration... do you understand what inspiration is? I'm just trying to improve my skills!"

The reason Qin Chuan's gaze was strange was mainly because Eriri's mother, Sawamura Sayuri, was following not far behind them.

Eriri was essentially inviting a boy to do something intimate with her in front of her own mother.

But thinking about it carefully, Sayuri Sawamura isn't a Saiyan, and being so far away, she probably couldn't have heard what explosive statement Eriri just made.

But it's okay if she doesn't know yet; she'll find out soon enough.

"Since you've put it that way, it's not that I can't go with you..."
