Chapter 25 : Birthday Gift
25: Birthday Gift
Su Mo had once seen a discussion post on a forum with over 10,000 views. The content of the post was:
When you're in the quiet darkness of night, having opened your computer's hidden folder resources, and you're halfway through getting excited and releasing your nature, suddenly the door is pushed open followed by lights turning on. When you come to your senses, your parents are standing on either side of you. What should you say at this moment to avoid awkwardness?
Because this topic was so interesting, Su Mo could still remember two amusing comments even now.
Comment ①: I'd directly do a 360° Thomas spiral takeoff, fly out the window, and if I can't fly out I'll fall down—farewell to this world.
Comment ②: You're all talking hypothetically, but only I have truly experienced it... It's now been three years since I've gone home.
Regarding the awkward scenario described in this post, Su Mo had always believed this might be the ceiling of awkwardness.
But now, looking at the evil loli senior An Xiaoqian who appeared before her and her own girlfriend Lin Muyao who was linking arms with her.
At this moment, Su Mo, who hadn't completely left 'Milk Candy Party,' only felt an unprecedented tide of awkwardness washing over her, her vision even darkening slightly.
It was fine with An Xiaoqian, who knew her secret, but how should she—a boy—explain to her 'girlfriend' the reason for appearing here!
Speaking of this awkward feeling, it seemed much more serious than the discussion post.
After all, being discovered by parents was just embarrassing, but her current behavior seemed to have risen to the level of perversion.
"Junior...Su Mo, what are you here to buy?"
Just as Su Mo was racking her brains trying to figure out how to explain, Lin Muyao recovered from her initial shock and walked toward her on her two long, beautiful legs.
As the distance between her and Su Mo grew closer, Lin Muyao's heart was honestly somewhat shaken at this moment.
Regarding Su Mo, this clean-featured, somewhat delicate and pure junior fake boyfriend—although she had urgent matters at noon and left the crew early, which was somewhat unqualified for a proper boyfriend.
But overall, Lin Muyao was very satisfied with Su Mo, and during this morning's rehearsal, she could even faintly feel a trace of romantic sweetness.
Because of this special flavor, even though today's theater filming didn't go smoothly, her mood had remained good until now.
Only now, seeing Su Mo in front of the women's lingerie store, holding a lingerie gift box, Lin Muyao couldn't help but waver again.
A question seeking an answer inevitably appeared in her mind.
Junior Su Mo—who was he buying lingerie to give to?
Clack~ Clack~ Clack~
The crisp sound of small high heels stepping on Milk Candy Party's tiles sounded clear and efficient.
Hearing these crisp sounds, the nervous Su Mo's heart pounded wildly while she couldn't help but swallow some saliva, her brain working frantically.
Even with heat faintly rising from the top of his head, she still couldn't think of a reasonable explanation.
While Su Mo was frantically pondering, Lin Muyao had already walked in front of him.
Perhaps because she was wearing high heels, Lin Muyao, who was 170cm tall with long, beautiful legs, was actually a bit taller than Su Mo, who had just become a girl yesterday, making Su Mo's pressure multiply.
"Mu... Senior Muyao, you finished filming?"
After thinking for a long time, Su Mo finally only came up with the excuse of changing the subject to cover up. While speaking, she also childishly and guiltily hid the exquisitely packaged small gift box behind her back.
Seeing Su Mo's 'there's no silver buried here' little action, Lin Muyao's delicate almond eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc.
Although she knew Su Mo was just a boyfriend she had coerced and threatened into being, and they only had an employment relationship, so whatever the other party did was actually 'his' freedom.
But thinking that Su Mo actually wanted to buy lingerie to give to another girl, the emotion that arose—Lin Muyao couldn't clearly identify what feeling it was for a moment.
To call it betrayal didn't seem quite right!
In any case, it just felt very uncomfortable.
Her beautiful face pouted slightly, looking at Su Mo's fair face that was lowered due to guilt.
Somewhat annoyed, Lin Muyao directly reached out, gently pinching both sides and pulling outward, not forgetting to assert her ownership.
"Junior Su Mo, I'm warning you—you're my boyfriend right now."
Feeling the cool touch of Lin Muyao's fingers on his cheeks, Su Mo, who had become a big-faced cat, actually breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her words.
Emmmmmmmm Good, good—Lin Muyao didn't suspect that she was a pervert who wore 'women's lingerie.' That was really too good.
Just as the relieved Su Mo instinctively reached out to stop Lin Muyao from pinching his cheeks—this action that compromised his masculine dignity—as he brought her hand from behind her back, she accidentally dropped the gift box bag on the ground.
Fortunately, at this moment, a petite and playful figure appeared behind Su Mo and picked up the box.
Looking at the lingerie with the 'Milk Candy Party' logo, An Xiaoqian pondered briefly before seeming to think of an extremely interesting script. Her doll-like face, full of pure innocence, first showed a sweet and harmless smile, then that smile became increasingly wicked.
The next second, she looked toward Su Mo, who was frantically turning back to retrieve the bag. Then, under his 'horrified' gaze, she pressed her index finger to her soft, plump cheek, tilted her head slightly, and spoke innocently.
"Junior Su Mo, you're really fast. I only told you this morning that the day after tomorrow is Muyao's birthday, and you're already here buying gifts?"
While speaking, An Xiaoqian kept moving closer to Su Mo, her cute voice continuing.
"But Junior Su Mo, I did say to buy something novel, but I didn't expect you would choose to give lingerie. Could it be that deep down, you're a very H person?"
As An Xiaoqian's words fell, Lin Muyao, who was pinching Su Mo's cheeks in her girlfriend capacity, couldn't help but freeze.
Huh?
This lingerie was actually a birthday gift Su Mo bought for her?
Leaving early at noon was also because Xiaoqian told him about her birthday.
Thinking of this, Lin Muyao's cool face couldn't help but blush, and a sweet taste involuntarily arose in her heart. She gently released Su Mo's fair little face, looking at the faint red marks that appeared on her translucent skin.
At this moment, Lin Muyao was somewhat afraid to look at Su Mo. She had kindly selected a birthday gift for her, yet she had angrily pinched her face—this was simply a contemporary story of the farmer and the snake.
Although her best friend An Xiaoqian's words made sense—she wouldn't think much of ordinary gifts.
But why buy lingerie, such an intimate item!
And it was from Milk Candy Party, this lingerie store famous for its sexy and seductive styles.
So what style did Su Mo actually choose?
Thinking about the style issue, even Lin Muyao's snow-white swan neck took on a hint of blush.
Just as Lin Muyao shyly turned her head in a girlish manner, silently helping Su Mo rub his cheeks with one hand, acting like a little girl who had done something wrong and didn't dare look at Su Mo.
At this moment, Su Mo was looking in shock at An Xiaoqian, who was smiling sweetly in front of her like a harmless little white flower.
Emmmmmmmm It would have been good enough if this evil little loli who knew the inside story didn't add insult to injury, yet she actually helped her out of trouble.
So the question was—what exactly did she want to do?
Why do I have a bad feeling about this?
There's a poem that goes: Dark clouds press down on the city, threatening to destroy it... An evil loli is coming over?
