“Yes, I’m going back to Zhao to find my mom.”
Su Mu lowered her head; she had already booked the tickets.
This weekend.
“I’ll go with you.”
Beside her, Luo Jialan was the first to speak, and her words were even more surprising than Su Mu’s.
She’s going back to see her mother, so what are you going for? It can’t be…
“No, let’s forget that.” Su Mu had no intention of taking Luo Jialan to meet Su Ya right now.
After all, this trip wasn’t for visiting purposes.
Originally, she wanted to pretend to be her old self at school, fearing that if her parents found out about her situation, it would cause trouble. But now, there was no need for that.
She wanted to confess to Su Ya that she had once been a Strange Person but had now become a Magical Girl.
At the same time, she hoped Su Ya would be honest with her as well.
“Alright then, we’ll find another opportunity next time.”
Hearing Luo Jialan’s slightly disappointed words, Su Mu felt a chill in her heart.
Why is she still thinking about this?
“By the way, someone invited me to travel during the holiday in a few days.”
On the other side, Ye Wanqing, who had been distracted the whole time, suddenly spoke.
“Where to?”
“G City.”
“Huh?”
This time it was Su Mu’s turn to be dumbfounded.
Now there was no need to worry about Luo Jialan, because Ye Wanqing had brought up an equally troublesome issue.
No, why would you, a homebody little sister, not enjoy a peaceful solo holiday at home and instead choose to travel? Aren’t you worried about the money?
“My family lives in G City, but it’s an eight-hour train ride away. What are you going there for?”
“W-well, the meeting point is in G City. I don’t know why either. So, you say your family is in G City?”
‘I see. Someone would be looking after her, so there’s no need to worry that Ye Wanqing would randomly follow her home.’
Still, Su Mu was curious—who could have invited Ye Wanqing to G City?
After all, if it’s a short holiday, traveling nearby would make more sense.
Why go all the way to such a far place?
Just the ticket would cost hundreds, and buying it herself would be painful.
It can’t be a boyfriend or something…
Su Mu refused to believe Ye Wanqing had found a boyfriend.
She couldn’t imagine anyone being able to handle her.
During these days living together, she had been like a caretaker for the little girl.
Without glasses, Ye Wanqing instantly transformed from a sarcastic friend into a drooling little sister.
That girl couldn’t cook, her room was a complete mess, and she tossed things everywhere.
It looked tidy, but once you opened a drawer, it exploded.
Literally exploded—things flew everywhere with a bang.
Su Mu still vividly remembered when she opened Ye Wanqing’s wardrobe, and the pile of plush toys mixed with thick blankets collapsed like an avalanche, burying her underneath.
Although she had been warned, when it actually happened, Su Mu was shocked.
Is this even a human’s wardrobe?
The trigger for these discoveries was the gradual disappearance of various things from the room.
One day, Su Mu wanted to watch TV on the sofa, but when she leaned back, she immediately noticed something was off.
She reached back but couldn’t find any cushions.
Could cushions just disappear into thin air?
Surely, Ye Wanqing didn’t eat them.
There were only two people in the house, so Su Mu quickly found the culprit.
After learning the cushions had been stuffed into the wardrobe, the scene described earlier unfolded.
Ye Wanqing was thoroughly scolded afterward.
Su Mu never thought she’d ever scold someone; she had always believed she had a good temper.
Then, with Su Mu’s help, the room was restored to normal, but she guessed similar problems would keep happening.
After all, Ye Wanqing was completely unreliable without her glasses.
‘How did I even put up with her? Sigh.’
“So who invited you over?”
“Uh, it’s a secret.”
Thinking of that person, Ye Wanqing immediately blushed and turned her face away.
That awkward reaction made Su Mu feel even more uneasy.
“A secret is a secret, but why are you blushing so much? Like you’re afraid I won’t be curious.”
“I don’t have time to look after you anyway. I’m going back for something important.”
Seeing Su Mu huff and cross her arms, Ye Wanqing pouted.
“You’re so heartless, Little Mu. I knew you were unreliable. Good thing I still have Irina. You’ll just have to watch me and Irina get close then—jealous to death!”
“It’s fine. Just go back normally; don’t worry about those things.” Tang Nai suddenly spoke, and upon hearing this, Su Mu felt relieved.
Come to think of it, that Ning Xi seemed to have a crush on Irina.
It shouldn’t cause any problems.

“Miti can go, so why can’t I? I can go on a trip too.”
Don’t say things like that at a time like this!
Inside the Dojo, Su Mu lay weakly on the sun-warmed grass mat, unable to move.
Luo Jialan, under the pretense of giving a massage, teased Su Mu’s body that was tense from exercise.
Speaking softly into her ear, and because Su Mu couldn’t see her face, the feeling was even more intense, making her involuntarily moan.
Especially since Luo Jialan was sitting right on the most sensitive part of her butt.
In their usual post-workout routine, ever since that night, Luo Jialan’s touch had become bolder and more indulgent.
Su Mu could easily feel her fingertips pressing and kneading intentionally or not.
‘This girl was clearly taking advantage of me. But it didn’t matter; she hadn’t been rougher before.’
…Actually, she wasn’t unpleasant.
“She’s different. She’s really just going on a trip. You’d definitely just be thinking about…”
Su Mu’s family had a big bed, much more comfortable than the rental place.
Su Ya never came home at night and no one watched over her, so Su Mu knew exactly what she would be doing.
“Who said that…”
Hearing Su Mu’s faint, delicate voice, Luo Jialan’s pretty face instantly flushed, and she pressed down harder, causing Su Mu to cry out in pain again.
“Then at least stay at the Dojo tonight. Spend more time with me; my restraints have loosened a lot.”
Su Mu responded weakly, but she knew exactly what Luo Jialan was thinking.
The restraints haven’t loosened—they’re about to come off completely—
“Ah!” Pressed hard by Luo Jialan on her waist, Su Mu couldn’t help but exclaim.
Fine, fine, let her do whatever she wants.
“I think you’re not honest with yourself, little Su Mu. I can share my feelings with you, you know.”
‘Why do you have to get involved!’
Hearing Irina’s teasing in her heart, Su Mu felt both embarrassed and annoyed.
“By the way, aren’t you curious about what I’ve been doing these days?”
‘How would I know what you’re up to? I don’t dare approach the Three-layer Dream at all.’
“Hehe, but Ye Wanqing can come down.”
Listening to Irina’s tinkling laughter, Su Mu silently cursed.
‘Could it be you’re the one who led Ye Wanqing to my place?’
