What happened afterward, Yu Qing didn’t pay much attention to anymore.
He was carried around by Lin Wei, following the two of them with murmurs, and by the time he came back to his senses, he was already on the subway.
“Are we…going back?”
Yu Qing looked up at the subway stops and found that they didn’t quite match what he remembered.
Then he glanced to the side—Lin Wei was already asleep, leaning against him.
Looking at her slightly awkward sleeping posture, Yu Qing thought for a moment, then finally helped her up, gently placing her head on his lap.
Giving someone a lap pillow with a beautiful girl’s body—this was another unavoidable part of Transformation.
“Yeah, it’s almost seven o’clock. If we don’t go back now, we’ll miss it.”
Zhou Min sat on Yu Qing’s left, sandwiching him with Lin Wei in the middle.
At that moment, she was boredly scrolling through her phone.
Hearing Yu Qing’s question, she replied.
“If you have something to do, Yiyi, you can get off at the next station. It’s not far from the School. If you walk, you’ll get there soon.”
“It’s fine. Actually, there’s nothing urgent. Let’s wait until we get to the station.”
Yu Qing instinctively wanted to agree with the suggestion but, thinking carefully, felt it was a bit abrupt.
Besides, even if he reached the School, he could find other reasons to leave temporarily.
Moreover, she’d already been dragged around all day.
If she had to walk back on those two little legs, she’d rather be killed.
Sure enough, being a beautiful girl came with its own beautiful-girl troubles…
Yu Qing silently sighed in his heart, recalling the inner struggle over the Camera from earlier.
He felt a bit bitter, though his face remained calm with a gentle smile.
He softly stroked Lin Wei’s forehead, running his fingers through her hair.
It felt like petting the puppy at Grandpa’s House.
It had been almost a year since he’d gone back, and he wondered if the little dog would recognize him like this.
Probably not?
He heard dogs recognized people by smell.
Junior’s scent was fragrant, like a fresh Strawberry Cake out of the oven—very different from his gloomy self from before.
“I see…fine, whatever you say, Yiyi.”
Seeing this, Zhou Min decided not to push further.
She’d already given a way out; since Yu Qing didn’t take it, she couldn’t exactly say, ‘Hurry up and get off, or it’ll be too late.’
Besides, she’d already asked—Yiyi said she was still busy and wouldn’t be staying over tonight.
So even if Yiyi’s sister came back to the apartment with them, she could sleep with her.
As for why not sleep in Yiyi’s room.
Come on, even between sisters, there has to be some privacy.
What if there was something in Yiyi’s room she didn’t want others to see?
What if the sister missed her so much she started crying on the bed?
How would she explain to Yiyi tomorrow?
In short, to protect her sister, tonight Zhou Min was determined to snatch her away from that hateful big-breasted girl!
Dog!
She glanced at Lin Wei.
At that moment, Lin Wei was resting on Yu Qing’s thigh, enjoying ‘Yiyi’s’ touch.
Her lips curled up, pretending to be asleep, her eyes sneaking open a slit, staring with longing at Yu Qing’s thigh, even inching closer!
” Tsk.”
Zhou Min clicked her tongue in annoyance, her opinion of a certain idiotic girl growing even worse.
Dog, you’re just taking advantage of her innocence.
If Yiyi really came over, I’d have to punish you and not let you touch her for days.
Yu Qing had no idea what Zhou Min was thinking.
He’d fallen into contemplation again, even dropping his act, a chilly air of ‘don’t mess with me’ slowly emanating from him.
This made a certain Husky, drooling at the mouth, furrow her brows and shift uncomfortably, finally stopping even closer to the forbidden zone.
Yu Qing didn’t notice Lin Wei’s little movements.
Assuming she was just uncomfortable, he helped her adjust and continued thinking.
So far, the known drawback was that after Transformation, strength became very weak.
Since the other Films hadn’t been used, there was no comparison yet.
But Yu Qing knew this wouldn’t be the only effect.
From the moment he got the Camera and turned into a junior, he’d Transformed four times in total.
Not counting this time, after each of the previous three Transformations, his own body changed in some way.
No—rather than mutation, it was more like Optimization.
A gradual absorption of the other person’s strengths, slowly reshaping himself.
He was so sure because, after the third Transformation, a Mascara Mole suddenly appeared under his right eye—the exact same spot as the junior’s.
But Yu Qing didn’t see this as a flaw, so he wasn’t too worried.
In fact, he looked forward to it—wondering if, by continuing, he’d one day completely become a junior, never needing the Camera again.
“Mm…”
The person in his arms suddenly became restless, breaking Yu Qing’s train of thought.
He looked down in confusion, only to see her rubbing sleepy eyes, looking up at him pitifully.
“Yiyi…I want a hug. And a kiss~”
“Oh, okay.”
Still stuck in his head, Yu Qing didn’t think much of it.
He assumed kisses and hugs were normal between girls, so he bent down to give the little pet on his lap a wake-up kiss.
“Hey! I’m still here!”
Zhou Min couldn’t take it anymore.
She’d only wanted to watch her sister’s cute, thoughtful face quietly, but the wicked cat kept taking more and more, and now wanted a kiss!
What if that was her sister’s first kiss?
Stolen by this little pervert!
I object!
“Uwah, stinky Min Min, why are you still here?”
Lin Wei, pushed aside by Zhou Min’s hand and denied her wake-up kiss, pouted in protest, glaring at Zhou Min in annoyance.
When Yu Qing came to, looking at the two in confusion, Lin Wei instantly switched to a pitiful, teary look.
What happened?
Why were they suddenly arguing?
Yu Qing glanced at Zhou Min, then at Lin Wei.
The two, moments ago locked in a fierce standoff, now wore smiling faces under his gaze.
Since he couldn’t understand, Yu Qing let it go.
It probably had nothing to do with him.
After tonight, he’d just explain things to the junior.
Outside, the scenery flew by—the dark walls counted as scenery, too.
Sandwiched between the two, Yu Qing couldn’t lean left or right, so he obediently sat in the middle.
He didn’t dare take out his phone, afraid someone would notice it was different from the junior’s.
Fortunately, the boring time didn’t last long.
After sitting quietly for a while, Zhou Min reminded him it was time to get off.
Still, ‘Shu Xiang Yuan’ sounded like a residential complex.
Were there school district apartments near the School?
Yu Qing thought back, but realized that for the past three years, he’d only been in the Dormitory or Classroom.
He barely knew what the School looked like, let alone the surrounding area.
He followed the two off the subway…
No, wait.
He was led off by Lin Wei, arm in arm.
Maybe today’s outfit really was to her taste; she clung to him all day without letting go.
Yu Qing didn’t know how juniors usually interacted, but thought that a bit of intimacy between girls was normal and didn’t say anything.
Zhou Min hadn’t said a word, either.
If there was a problem, she’d have pointed it out already.
For some reason, Yu Qing remembered how Zhou Min had teased him that afternoon.
He wondered if she really had noticed something.
No, I need to stay away from her.
So, under Zhou Min’s incredulous gaze, Yu Qing moved a little closer to Lin Wei.
Today’s victory belonged to Miss Airhead, total defeat for Miss Unhappy.
