She put her hands on her hips and looked Ling Yuwei up and down, feigning seriousness:

"Xiaowei, something's wrong with you!"

“Is… is it?”

Ling Yuwei blushed slightly and awkwardly turned her head away.

In fact, she was quite different from usual today.

Today, the girls weren't wearing school uniforms or sportswear; instead, they were wearing knitwear and wide-leg pants, which are currently very popular among girls.

The soft knitwear accentuated her slender waist, and the wide-leg pants swayed gently with her steps.

She even borrowed her mother's cosmetics to slightly conceal her dark circles and apply some powder, a move that startled Ling's mother, who was getting up early to wash up.

You know, your daughter seems normal in every way, but she hardly interacts with her classmates, her interests are tokusatsu and running patrols all over the city, and she only has two outfits all year round: a school uniform and a sports uniform. You'd be scared if she suddenly put on makeup.

I don't care who you are, you better not get off my daughter!

So, after going through a lot of trouble to explain to her parents that she wasn't dating a male athlete from the running team, but was going out with a male friend, Ling's mother and her father, who had been pulled up at the last minute, were almost moved to tears.

"Okay, okay, go ahead. My daughter is finally back to normal and has even learned how to make friends."

Ling's mother wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice choked with emotion.

"That's because you've raised her well, my love. I've never doubted your care for Yuwei, just as you've never doubted my love for you."

"You're so awful!"

Ling's mother playfully pushed Ling's father.

Seeing the couple suddenly become so affectionate, the girl, feeling a chill run down her spine, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

In the end, Ling's mother, who had become more proactive, stopped her daughter's audacious act of going out in sportswear and personally helped her choose the outfit.

However, I didn't expect that the first thing I said upon meeting him would be to be accused of something being wrong.

Even Xiao Kui says that based on her personality...

Is that really a bit strange?

The girl couldn't help but feel a little down.

She looked down at her outfit and tugged at her clothes somewhat uncomfortably.

"You're so beautiful, of course you look better when you smile!"

Su Zhikui suddenly leaned closer and cupped Ling Yuwei's face in her hands.

"Eh?"

Ling Yuwei was taken aback, but the girl beside her had already extended two index fingers and touched the corners of her lips, then gently pulled them outwards. A warm sensation came from her fingertips, and the girl herself demonstrated by giving a warm, sunny smile.

"Smailu, Smailu!"

Su Zhikui's smile was like a blooming flower, extremely infectious.

The girl's lips finally couldn't help but curl up slightly.

"Yes, that's right!"

Su Zhikui then became happy.

"Is it so hard to go out with me? Come on, this is our first time going out together, and we have so many places to visit today!"

Looking at her companion standing in front of her, waving back at her, Ling Yuwei's joy became more and more genuine and natural.

The discomfort I felt when I went out has completely disappeared.

Her awareness only deepened.

Thank you, Xiaokui.

Whether it's to protect such an important companion as you, or just for this peaceful daily life, that's why I've fought so hard as a magical girl!

In the past, she was just a low-key person, but Ling Yuwei would still attend the usual class reunions and events, so she wasn't completely without a social life.

However, since becoming a magical girl, the girl, who already felt unworthy, put in a thousand percent effort in order to be more worthy of her rainbow crystal flower.

They're either fighting monsters or on the path of cultivation.

How long has it been since I went out for a casual trip with friends like this?

She really couldn't remember.

However, Yuwei, you should rest for a while today. Rest, take a rest.

Even magical girls who have to fight against evil have the right to relax and enjoy their lives, right?

At this moment, she finally truly immersed herself in the cheerful atmosphere near the mall and couldn't help but look around. Among the crowd, there were countless pairs of friends like her and Xiao Kui heading towards the mall together.

Seeing these smiles, Ling Yuwei couldn't help but smile as well.

A smile unconsciously crept onto her lips, and her eyes sparkled with pleasure.

However, suddenly, the image of another person appeared in her mind.

Suddenly, a strange idea popped into her mind.

Should we ask him to go out for a walk together next time?

No, don't misunderstand, it's just because I'm afraid he might do something bad to Xiao Kui if he keeps it bottled up for too long!

She shook her head, trying to shake the thought away, and was about to catch up with her companions when the girl suddenly froze... Holy crap, who is that?!

Her gaze suddenly fixed in a certain direction, and her pupils contracted sharply.

Suddenly, on the street not far away, the boy who had just appeared in her imagination actually appeared in reality!

At that moment, he was yawning and standing on the side of the road with a bored expression when, without anyone noticing, a gray-haired girl leaning on a small silver cane appeared next to him.

Then, after exchanging a few words of laughter and conversation, the gray-haired girl actually took the boy's arm affectionately and naturally. Then, from their clothes to their temperament and appearance, the two seemed to be a perfect match, and they walked side by side, like a real couple, and turned to walk into the mall together. Their backs looked particularly well-matched in the sunlight.

Then who the hell are they if not Lin En and Bai Lixia?!

Didn't you tell me it was just a normal outing with her?!

Why are you guys so skilled?!

And your outfits look like matching couple clothes, so what's going on?!

Would ordinary friends who go out together be so intimate and wear matching outfits?!

Ah? ? ?

"Xiaowei, what's wrong? Why aren't you coming over yet?"

Just then, Su Zhikui, who had been waiting ahead for a while and saw that her companion had not made any move, turned around in confusion and waved to Ling Yuwei.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ling Yuwei, with speed and self-control beyond human limits, broke free from the fantasy in her mind that Bai Lixia and Lin En were getting married and she could only stand outside the door to help them guard the door and collect their wedding gifts, and made the most correct judgment.

Absolutely, absolutely, we can't let Xiaokui see those two guys!!

If you walk forward now, you are very likely to meet at the mall entrance due to the crowds.

"Xiao Kui, let's not go through this door, let's go through another door!"

Ling Yuwei grabbed Su Zhikui's hand, her voice urgent.

"Huh, why is that?"

"There's an old lady over there who wants to cross the road. I'll ride her across while the light is red. Can you help me too?"

"Okay, okay!"

Why, why did I have to encounter something like this when I just wanted to go out shopping with my friends like a normal girl?!

While snatching the old lady's cane, Ling Yuwei couldn't help but think in despair.

...........

"It's so noisy."

"Isn't it normal for shopping malls to be lively?"

"I always feel like there are too many eyes watching me, which makes me uncomfortable."

"That's because you're being too sensitive, Lynn."

"No, if you ask me, the reason should be you."

On the other side, Lynn, who was walking forward, squinted and glanced at Bai Lixia, who was holding his arm beside her.

As a mentally specialized villain, Lynn's perception was already beyond that of ordinary people. Moreover, even an ordinary person would probably have noticed that something was wrong.

Because of someone's self-indulgent intimate behavior, the jealousy and murderous intent of the surrounding men had become so intense that they were almost tangible. A series of "tsk" sounds kept coming from somewhere, like background noise, but when Lynn didn't look closely, he couldn't even find out who was making the sounds.

In fact, Ling Yuwei really misunderstood Lin En. Whether it was their intimate actions or matching outfits, Lin En didn't do it on purpose.

Rewind a few minutes, and the conversation between the two went something like this:

"Sorry, have you been waiting long?"

The back seat of the black sedan automatically popped open, and with Lynn's help, the girl, whose legs were still a little weak, successfully got out of the car, straightened her skirt, and stood up gracefully.

"Yes, we've been waiting for two hours."

Lynn accused.

"Hey, you're kidding. I just checked with a drone in the car. You've only been here for two minutes at most, right?"

Bai Lixia blinked and smiled, exposing his lie.

What are those two talking about...?

After successfully attracting the attention of passersby with her first three sentences, Bai Lixia glanced at Lynn's clothes, couldn't help but laugh, and pointed her fingertip lightly at Lynn's chest:

"Oh, Lynn, what a coincidence! Look at our outfits, we're wearing matching clothes!"

Although it was a date, Lynn didn't bother to dress up. She simply wore a gray shirt and off-white trousers and went out.

Surprisingly, he and Bai Lixia ended up wearing a very well-matched couple outfit.

In stark contrast to Lynn's gray top and white bottom, Bai Lixia wore a gray pleated skirt, small leather shoes, and a simple white shirt with delicate lace cuffs, a pretty bow tie, and a delicate little brooch on her chest.

She seems to really like brooches. Even her iridescent crystal flowers and leaves are always brooch-shaped.

Combined with her sweet smile, typical of a young girl, and that beautiful face that could easily be used in a campus idol drama.

From an outsider's perspective, it is indeed easy to misunderstand the relationship between the two.

However, from Lynn's perspective, it's a completely different story.

Did they predict my outfit based on my usual dressing habits and force a matching couple outfit?

That's a bit interesting.

Unfortunately, it's all show and no substance.

What if I said my underwear is actually SpongeBob SquarePants?

I bet you're not Patrick Star.

The two wandered aimlessly through the mall. The reason for their aimlessness was that although Lynn had tried her best, she unfortunately had not received any constructive advice.

Yesterday, clinging to her last hope, Lin En asked Lian Yinmeng and Qianmianqing. The former immediately started acting like a robot with a bug, stammering something like "hypnotizing Lord Qing... dating... that kind of thing" and other incomprehensible words. She also pulled out a tablet computer, seemingly to log into some forum. Unfortunately, before Lin En could see it clearly, the communication screen was cut off by the quick-witted Qianmianqing.

When Lynn asked the latter, he was met with a laugh and recommendations for several couples' hotels, with a knowing look in his eyes.

After randomly opening a search on Meituan, Lin En discovered that the couples' hotels recommended by Qianmianqing were actually only the top five on the list. He had to regretfully admit that although there seemed to be many women around him, it seemed that only Xiao Chunu and Lao Chunu were available.

"Lynn, could you please find a place to sit for a moment?"

Just then, Bai Lixia gently tugged at Lin En's sleeve.

"What's wrong?"

Lynn tilted her head slightly and looked at her.

"My legs hurt."

Bai Lixia smiled.

"........"

After glancing at the girl's small silver cane, the two casually sat down side by side on a chair in the mall's rest area.
