After leaving the academy.
Mizukami Sayo and Amakawa Kaoru were then taken by Hanabishi Haruka to a secluded open space in a park where there were no other outsiders. The three of them stopped there.
Kaoru Amakawa spoke first.
"Alright, now Yao, you can finally tell us what you're planning to do, right? You suddenly brought us to a place like this, all so mysterious... what are you up to?"
Who knew?
Hanabi Haruka, however, maintained her mysterious smile, though she seemed even more excited.
Water Goddess Xiaoye also asked.
"Xiaoyao, what's wrong with you? Can't you just tell me what's wrong?"
"Please wait a little longer."
How long will it take?
"Hehe, it'll be fine soon."
"Okay then, but try to be quick, I'm looking forward to getting home."
"Xiaoye, it seems like you've been going straight home after school every day lately, and you rarely go out shopping or playing with us anymore."
"Ah, this..."
When asked about this, the water goddess Sayo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and shy.
Knowing full well what was going on, Amakawa Kaoru glanced at her meaningfully, then muttered to herself, "Maybe someone's in a hurry to go home and wants to enjoy some alone time with someone."
Saya's face instantly turned bright red, and she quickly retorted, "Kaoru, don't talk nonsense without evidence. Isn't it normal to go home early after school?"
"Whether it's normal or not, you know best in your heart."
"Hmph, I bet you're always targeting me because you're too envious."
"ha???"
very good.
This time it was Amakawa Kaoru's turn to blush. She immediately retorted, "Who...who wants to envy you? Xiaoye, I advise you not to get too cocky. Don't think that what you are now is what you are now. Who knows what you will become in the future?"
"I didn't understand a single word you said!"
At this moment.
Seeing her two best friends suddenly start arguing again, Hua Lingyao quickly stepped forward to break them up and asked, puzzled, "Xunzi, Xiaoye, what's wrong with you two lately? Why are you always arguing?"
“Go ask her,” said Kaoru Amakawa.
"How should I know? It's clearly Kaoru who's always provoking me," Mizuki Sayo retorted, not to be outdone.
"Oh dear, let's get along well. We're the best of friends, haven't we always been very united and worked together to get to where we are today?" Hua Lingyao really couldn't understand why the relationship between the two of them had changed so much recently. "Kaoru, Xiaoye, is there some misunderstanding between you two? If so, then you should talk it out properly. Otherwise, arguing won't solve the problem."
Facing Hanabi Haruka's worried gaze.
Mizuki Sayo and Amakawa Kaoru exchanged a glance, and finally sighed, realizing that there was no need for good friends to be so confrontational.
"Never mind, there wasn't really any misunderstanding. I was just joking around with Yoru." Kaoru Amakawa changed the subject.
"Yes, Xiaoyao, don't be too nervous. Kaoru and I aren't really arguing. We might have some disagreements, which is normal. We're still good friends," Mizuki Sayo comforted her.
The two had reconciled.
Hua Lingyao was relieved and happy that they had reconciled.
Just then.
Her phone beeped with a notification, and when she picked it up, her face lit up with joy, much to the bewilderment of both Kaoru Amakawa and Sayo Mizuki.
Put down your phone.
Hua Lingyao excitedly said to her two good friends.
"It's almost time, Kaoru, Saya, could you please cooperate with me a little longer?"
"Huh?" x2
"Could you please use this to blindfold yourselves?"
Hua Lingyao took out two strips of black cloth from her pocket, hoping to blindfold the two of them.
Amakawa Kaoru was puzzled.
Why are you covering your eyes?
"Hehe, don't ask so many whys. Of course, I hope to give you two a big surprise! That's right, just like at a birthday party, the moment you take off your blindfolds, you'll see a super beautiful and exquisite birthday cake. That's what a surprise is."
"Xiaoyao, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Kaoru Amakawa was genuinely amused.
"Oh, Kaoru, Saya, please just go along with me, okay?"
In response to Hanabishi Haruka's request.
Mizuki Sayo and Amakawa Kaoru exchanged a glance, then smiled and picked up the black cloth strips, covering their eyes.
Hua Lingyao also gave some instructions.
"Don't take it off before I say OK, otherwise the surprise won't be effective."
"Okay, okay." x2
After saying that.
Hua Lingyao immediately turned and ran away, leaving only Tianchuan Xunzi and Shuishen Xiaoye standing there, blindfolded, looking dazed and feeling abandoned.
——
soon.
Hua Lingyao then ran to a park path not far away, where Lorraine, as agreed, was standing under a street lamp, waiting to meet her.
"Brother Lin!"
A familiar voice came from the side. When Lorraine turned around, he saw Hua Lingyao running excitedly toward him.
"Xiao Yao".
