I turned into a beautiful girl

"Sister Luo Ke? The way you keep staring at Brother Xiaoxia is like the perverted stalker mentioned in the news."

Standing on the fence on the second floor, when he knew that Yu Xia and he were staying in the same shopping mall, Mo Luoke wanted to meet Yu Xia. But the real situation did not allow her to do this, and Mo Luoke could only gloomily spy on Yu Xia and Hua Ling from above.

Unable to bear the behavior of his sister who was like a pervert that people condemned, Ziya's gentle and elegant voice slipped into Moloko's ears.

"I know...but I also really want to go shopping with Xia Xia."

Her delicate body slid down the glass fence, and Moloko's smooth face squeezed the transparent fence, and he whispered in despair.

"Does Sister Luoke hate shopping with me so much?! If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to go find Brother Xiaoxia from the beginning?!"

Dissatisfaction grew in Ziya's heart. Even Ziya, who could always face Moloko's silly behavior with a smile, could not maintain her calm sanity now.

"Why do you hate shopping with Ziya?! I hate it~ I really like shopping with Ziya!"

No matter how stupid his mind was, Moloke still noticed the aura of dissatisfaction exuding from Ziya. The cherry-colored mouth formed an awkward arc, leaving the cold fence at a lightning speed and getting close to Ziya's side.

"Oh? Really?! But I can feel it. Sister Luoke wants to be with brother Xiaoxia more than me."

After glancing at Mo Luoke, Ziya withdrew her gaze. This also made Mo Luoke once again realize how terrifying it is for Ziya, who has always been gentle and sensible, to be angry.

"Really not~~Compared to Xia Xia, I want to go shopping with you Ziya~~"

Xia Xia, I’m sorry! When I say this, I really don’t think there’s anything wrong with you!

Maintaining a stiff smile, Mo Luoke secretly apologized to Yu Xia in his heart while coaxing the awkward Ziya.

"Really?"

Ziya puffed up her cute little cheeks, turned around, and looked directly into Moloko's eyes.

"It's true! It's true! Don't be angry with your sister!"

Not having the aura of being a sister at all, but trying hard to act like a sister, Mo Luoke gently stroked Ziya's head with his hand. Like a docile puppy, Ziya, who wanted to further enjoy the warmth of Moloke's palm, closed her eyes.

"By the way, Sister Luoke, do you like Brother Xiaoxia?"

"Eh?! What, what did you say?! Are you scared to death?! Cough cough cough cough."

Ziya asked suddenly, and Mo Luoke, who was out of reach, had no way of organizing useful words. I wanted to swallow the saliva in my mouth, but I was choked and couldn't speak.

"Sister Luo Ke, are you okay?! Why are you coughing so hard all of a sudden? Are you angry?"

Ziya, who couldn't understand Moloko's stunned actions and mistook her for feeling unwell, put away her joking gesture and gently stroked Moloko's back with her hand.

"No, it's okay. I just choked when I swallowed my saliva."

"ah?"

Facing Moloko's response, Ziya opened her mouth in surprise, and her pupils shone with an incomprehensible light.

"So I choked on my saliva..."

"That's it... By the way, back to the topic just now, do you like Brother Xiaoxia?"

Not intending to let Mo Luo Ke go, Ziya urged her thinking to catch up with Mo Luo Ke's brain, and then asked her questions.

"As a friend of Xia Xia, of course I like it!"

Moloko, whose voice seemed harsh and whose cheeks were as red as lava, avoided Kai Ziya's direct gaze.

"I'm not talking about the love between friends, I'm talking about the love between men and women."

She tightened her grip on the hem of her clothes, and in order not to miss any of Moloke's expressions, Ziya stared at her face attentively.

"No, I don't know...I just want to be friends with Xia Xia now..."

The voice was as steady as a mosquito vibrating its wings, and Moro Ke looked at the first floor through the transparent fence. Her eyes quickly locked on Yu Xia's body, and she expressed her thoughts in confusion.

"I see……"

After pondering for a while, Ziya stood up with a "swish".

"Sister Luo Ke, let's go. We are here today to pick out a birthday gift for Sister Hua Ling, right?"

Standing up from the resting chair, Ziya showed a smile as soft as the afternoon sun, and stretched out her white and tender hands towards Moloke.

"That's right. Now is not the time to sit here and peek at Xia Xia. You have to buy a gift for Xiaoling first."

Gently patting his cheek with his hand, Moloch used the pain to regain his composure. She took hold of the little hand that Ziya held out towards her, in response to Ziya's concern for herself.

…★…

"Um?"

"Yuyu, what's wrong?"

"Ah, no, I just feel like I'm being watched by someone."

Withdrawing her gaze from upstairs, the feeling of being spied on grew in her heart, and Yu Xia frowned blankly.

"Who is watching?"

Feeling worried, she followed Yu Xia's gaze and looked upstairs, but in this crowded shopping mall, Hua Ling couldn't find anything suspicious among the crowd.

As if to let Yu Xia confirm that feeling again, Hua Ling tilted her head slightly and observed the expression on Yu Xia's face.

"Hmm...that feeling seems to be gone now...I'm not sure either."

Could it be the red-haired man? But I couldn’t feel the murderous intent in his gaze just now...

The first reaction in her mind was to think of the man who had appeared next to her twice not long ago. The fear that remained in Yu Xia's body resurfaced again along with the memories.

"Gu."

Her abdomen became cramped, and Yu Xia frowned in pain.

"Yuyu? Are you okay? What's wrong?"

The expression on Yu Xia's face made Hua Ling's heart skip a beat, and her palms emitted a faint green light. With healing warmth, it pressed against Yu Xia's abdomen.

"It's okay, it's okay. I just felt a little uncomfortable suddenly."

"Really? Yuyu, are you hiding something from me?"

Yu Xia's sudden expression of pain made Hua Ling frown, and a thoughtful look appeared on her young cheeks. The red eyes shone with wisdom, staring directly into Yu Xia's eyes as if penetrating the depths of his soul.

Hua Ling's seductive lips opened slightly and she uttered words that made Yu Xia panic.

"No, no?! How could I hide something from you?"

Be evasive.

Yu Xia dodged Hua Ling's gaze and had the idea of ​​​​escape. His body subconsciously took a step back.

"Oh? Yuyu, you must not have forgotten the consequences of hiding something from me, right?"

Hua Ling had already seen through Yu Xia's thoughts, and a dangerous aura emanated from her slender figure.

"Gu..."

what to do?

Do you want to tell me about that man now? But it’s rare to come out to play, and I don’t want the atmosphere to become serious...

So as a substitute, tell me about the birthday party?

But this will make Luo Ke and the others busy in vain...

what to do? This is not the time to say either...

Being in a dilemma, Yu Xia didn't know what to do. He bit his lower lip and met Hua Ling's questioning gaze again.

"Let's talk about that after we finish playing today and go home."

"Why? Do you want to avoid the problem of my concubine?"

"No, I'm too lazy for the two of us to go out and play... I don't want to make the atmosphere heavy. Believe me, I will definitely tell you when I get home today."

"Is this like this?! If you cherish the time you spend with me so much, it's not impossible to talk to me when you go home."

"Yeah. That's it."

Nodding, Yu Xia echoed Hua Ling's words.

………

…

…

"Huh? Do you like that dolphin pendant?"

"Huh? Hmm. No, it's not."

Walking towards the entrance of the aquarium, Yu Xia followed Hua Ling's gaze and saw hanging accessories related to the aquarium being sold next to the exit of the aquarium.

Hua Ling's eyes fell on one of the dolphin pendants. She seemed to feel shy when Yu Xia pointed out her thoughts, so she quickly withdrew her gaze.

"Oh, that's how it is……"

Looking at the dolphin pendant thoughtfully, Yu Xia said nothing more.

"What's going to happen? I'm really looking forward to it."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Hua Ling, are you cold?"

The tickets had been handed over to the staff at the ticket office for inspection. Yu Xia and Hua Ling stepped into the elevator deep into the aquarium. The interior seemed to be designed to create an environment similar to the polar regions for polar animals. The biting cold air invaded the skin of the two people as the elevator ascended.

Accustomed to the warmth brought by crowds of people in the mall, the temperature of the air gradually dropped, making Yu Xia shiver. White mist spit out from Yu Xia's little mouth. Looking at Hua Ling's beautiful legs stretched out from her skirt, worried words came out of his mouth.

"Ah? It's okay, it's okay. Yu Yuru, don't worry~"

As excited as a child, Hua Ling's deep red eyes sparkled with excitement, driven by joyful emotions, and a moving smile was outlined on the corners of her mouth.

"Really? If it's cold, you must say it."

"Yeah, I know it!"

At the same time that the conversation between Yu Xia and Hua Ling ended, the elevator reached the highest point.

“Uh oh~~”

Calls of exclamation came from their little mouths, and the scene in front of them shook the hearts of Yu Xia and Hua Ling.

The dim environment, combined with lighting and vocal music, accelerates the blood flow. The bathtub wraps around the path that tourists want to take like a tunnel, and fish of all sizes are swaying around.

Yu Xia and Hua Ling—no, all the tourists who come here are attracted by these fish.

Even the coldness in his senses was forgotten by Yu Xia. He kept raising his head and never looked down at the ground.

"Oh! Okay, so awesome! Yuyu, what's the name of that big fish?"

With her hands pressed against the fish tank, Hua Ling's eyes widened when a fish larger than other fish happened to cross her eyes.

When asking Yu Xia the name of this big fish, Hua Ling should not take her eyes away from it. The big fish swam forward, and Hua Ling also raised her slender legs to follow the moving big fish.

"Really. Be careful not to hit anyone."

Hua Ling looks very cute at this moment. Seeing her like this, the corners of Yu Xia's mouth turned up involuntarily. After reminding Hua Ling, he followed closely behind Hua Ling.

"Yuyu, go quickly~~go quickly~~"

"Don't walk so fast!"

Hua Ling, who was ahead of Yu Xia, stood in front, smiling like a flower and waving her little hand towards Yu Xia. Responding to her with a smile, Yu Xia quickened her pace.

"Well?"

A dull low moan came from Yu Xia's mouth, and the danger signal instinctively sent by her body made Yu Xia stop her progress. Frowning slightly, Yu Xia looked behind him.

It’s that feeling again! That person must be hiding in the crowd.

The gaze from somewhere turned into a sharp needle blade, piercing Yu Xia's back with undisguised hatred. Wanting to find the owner of the sight in the crowd, Yu Xia's movements seemed a little difficult in this dim environment.

The piercing gaze was completely different from the feeling of being spied on just now. Yu Xia could even feel the hatred in that gaze, as if something important had been taken away.

"Gu..."

Come out, you bastard!

The suffocating pain invaded Yu Xia's body step by step, and the feeling of fear was also awakened. Biting her gums tightly, Yu Xia whispered curses from the gaps between her teeth.

Suddenly, a soft warmth rose from his belly. Yu Xia himself didn't notice that the mark Hualing left on him unconsciously appeared on his lower abdomen.

The heat melted the ice and snow, the soft warmth assimilated the coldness in Yu Xia's body, and the pain of suffocation was relieved. The ferocious twisted faces softened, and he breathed heavily. The air entering through his mouth gave Yu Xia a feeling of rebirth.

The conspicuous red hair came into Yu Xia's sight. The burly man standing in the crowd like a beacon was mercilessly exuding hatred and killing intent.

His eyes met Yu Xia's, and his burly body moved, as if he wanted to walk to Yu Xia's side. Suddenly, his body turned unnaturally and walked in the opposite direction to where Yu Xia was.

"Just wait for me——"

Just when Yu Xia was about to launch a pursuit, someone held his hand. The words he was about to shout out were stuck in his throat and dissipated.

"Yuyu? What's wrong?"

"Hua Ling? It's okay, it's okay. It's just that you walked too fast and I couldn't find you because you were separated by other people."

Her bloodshot eyes met Hua Ling's worried gaze. While Yu Xia soothed Hua Ling's uneasiness, the uneasiness in her own body was also erased.

"Eh~~Is that so? If you don't hold your hand properly, you will get lost!"

"Ah, um. Okay."

The tone of his voice changed slightly, and his eyes glanced around without focusing. Hua Ling held Yu Xia's hand tightly with an unnatural blush.

Feeling the warmth from Hualing's palm, what happened just now was like ice and snow melting into water in the coming spring.

"Yuyu, what are the names of those fish?"

"Huh? I don't know either..."

Although she wanted to answer Hua Ling's question, Yu Xia did not have this knowledge. He was alert to his surroundings while interacting with Hua Ling.

The hands that were held together unconsciously turned into interlocking fingers.

The warm touch, the proof of the other person's existence, reaches directly to the depths of their hearts through the palms of their hands.

…★…

"It's almost time to go back. I've bought all the things. It's not good to leave all the decorations to Sister Yu Qiu and the others."

Holding the birthday gift that was about to be given to Hua Ling on her arm, Mo Luoke looked at the time displayed on her phone, and she made an excuse to end the shopping trip.

"Yeah, that's right. But sister Luo Ke, your earphones fell off."

"Ah! Really! I didn't even notice it!"

Ziya's reminder caught Mo Luoke's attention, and when he took out his cell phone, he pulled out the earphones that fell on the ground. Mo Luoke picked it up with an embarrassed smile. Ziya had long been used to it, so she helplessly responded with a wry smile.

"Ziya, after you said thank you, are you still hanging around here with Xiaoling?"

"I don't know~~ But it should be...the two of them should be going to the aquarium in this mall."

"Okay... let's go! Let's go to Xia Xia's house and arrange a super luxurious birthday party!"

The bright smile outlined on Moloko's beautiful face formed a strong impact in contrast to her somewhat lonely voice.

"Sister Luo Ke, this idiot..."

Muttering something in a low voice, Ziya looked at Moloko like a mother looking at her daughter who failed to live up to expectations, with love and blame.

………

…

…

"Weird ah ah ah!"

"Help, help!!!"

A sharp cry for help came from the entrance of the subway, and people with faces distorted by fear emerged. His body reacted instinctively to prevent Ziya from being pushed down and trampled by the crowd. Moloko held Ziya's waist with one hand.

The calf burst out with strong strength, and under the guidance of Moloko, Ziya jumped onto the glass canopy of the mall behind her.

"wack?"

Saving ordinary people who were attacked by monsters with blood-stained hands is one of Moroko's atonements. Frowning slightly, magic power began to condense into the palm of her hand.

"Sister Luo Ke, wait! In this case, why don't we call Brother Xiao Xia over?!"

"Just an ordinary weirdo~~ At this level, there is no need to call Xia Xia over?"

After grabbing Moloke's little hand, the magic power dissipated under Ziya's interruption. Unable to understand Ziya's thoughts of stopping her, Mo Luoke looked at her with a surprised expression.

"I know, but I'm afraid that sister Luo Ke, your identity will be exposed?!"

"Eh? Did I cover my face properly?"

"No, I'm afraid of you - ah! Let's not talk so much now, just listen to me and call Brother Xiaoxia over!"

"Ah, okay. Okay. But I have to contain that weirdo no matter what, but I won't let anyone see it."

The tight time did not allow Ziya to explain her confusion. Although Mo Luoke had not yet understood Ziya's intention, she decided to call Yu Xia over as Ziya said.

"Sister Luo Ke! Wait! Take me down first!"

Moloko turned into a swift wind and rushed into the tunnel leading to the subway. She could no longer hear Ziya's call behind her. While calling Yu Xia, he dodged the crowd swarming out.

Why does it look so much like a praying mantis? !

The strange man that caught his eye reminded Morocco of Mantis.

The god who brought death waved his sickle at the human beings who had reached their prime.

As if to split the air, the weirdo stretched out his hands as sharp as blades towards the human in front of him.

"Ugh."

It made a low chirping sound, like a ninja costume on Moroko's body. Rolling up the blue hurricane, Moloko threw the short knife in his hand towards the strange man's hands.

The blue flash that made the sound of breaking wind hit the monster's hands directly, just as Moloko expected.

Xia Xia, please come here quickly.

…★…

"Hua Ling, didn't you say you wanted to take me to meet someone? When will you go?"

"Ah? Let's go after lunch! You can also have a cake for afternoon tea!"

After walking out of the aquarium, Yu Xia and Hua Ling started wandering aimlessly around the shops in the mall. Yu Xia proposed one of the reasons for coming out today, and Hua Ling, who had made a plan early in the morning, revealed her plan.

"That's it...it's almost one o'clock now, where are we going-"

Xia Xia! Xia Xia! Now there is a weirdo in the subway station next to the mall!

The voice in his head stopped Yu Xia's speech and stopped his walking. Yu Xia listened carefully to Moloko's words.

"Yu Yu? What's wrong with you?"

"Ah? Ah... I, my stomach hurts a little. I have to go to the toilet! Hua Ling, please stay here and don't leave! I'll be back soon!"

Yu Xia used her stiff acting skills to act like she had a stomachache. After informing Hua Ling, Yu Xia quickly hurried in the opposite direction to the toilet.

Although it would be better to call Hua Ling for things like exterminating monsters, but thinking that Mo Luoke and Ziya are here to buy birthday gifts for Hua Ling, it will be troublesome if Hua Ling notices it. Yu Xia used lies to deceive him, planning to defeat the weirdo and rush back to Hua Ling.

"Yuyu, are you hiding something from me?"

Staring at Yu Xia's retreating back, speculation about Yu Xia's thoughts came out of Hua Ling's little mouth.
