Mochizuki felt a bit stressed. Would there be any rumors spreading?
It probably wouldn't be long before rumors circulated at school tomorrow, claiming that the cold Yukino Yukinoshita actually went home with a boy after school.
This short distance of several hundred meters from the Service Club to the school gate was the first time Mochizuki Yo felt it was so difficult to walk.
Yukino Yukinoshita, on the other hand, seemed indifferent. She appeared to be completely unconcerned about the surrounding gazes, walking forward expressionlessly as if the people around her didn't exist.
She had long been accustomed to the stares of the crowd and wasn't afraid of so-called rumors.
"It's really not easy!" Mochizuki sighed.
"What, are you scared?" Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Mochizuki beside her and smiled disdainfully.
"Scared? How is that possible!"
As a future light novelist, what kind of famous scenes wouldn't he see in the future? How could Mochizuki be scared!
Yukino Yukinoshita's lips curved up, and she didn't say anything more.
The two arrived at the school gate smoothly. There were no guys who were so tactless as to run up to Yukino Yukinoshita and question who Mochizuki was, or confess to her.
"Which mall do you want to go to?"
To be honest, Mochizuki wasn't sure where there was a mall nearby, as he had always lived a two-point-one-line lifestyle.
Home, school, home, school...
"Just follow me."
Then, Mochizuki Yo followed Yukino Yukinoshita to the station.
Fortunately, it was right after school, and many students were still engaged in club activities at school.
There weren't many people on the train now, but it might be different when they came back later.
Yukino Yukinoshita found an empty seat and sat down, placing her hands neatly on her knees.
Mochizuki thought for a moment, then sat down beside her, maintaining a distance of half a body length.
After riding for three stations, Yukino Yukinoshita said, "We're here, let's get off."
Mochizuki continued to follow behind Yukinoshita.
After exiting the station, they walked for a short distance and arrived at a large department store.
It looked very prosperous.
Walking into the mall, one could feel a hint of coolness brought by the air conditioning.
The various goods on display looked dazzling, making it a very suitable place to choose a gift.
Yukino Yukinoshita was indeed very reliable.
Thus, the two slowly wandered through the mall, choosing suitable gifts.
Since they were both wearing school uniforms, they looked like a pair of young school couples on a date at the mall!
...
While passing through the clothing section, Mochizuki saw a light yellow dress that he thought was quite beautiful and might be suitable as a gift.
He stopped Yukinoshita and asked, "How about this dress?"
"Do you know the size?"
Size? Mochizuki lowered his head and thought for a moment. How could he know something like that?
Mochizuki looked up again at Yukino Yukinoshita, as if he was comparing her.
"Hmm... A bit shorter than you, and... your figure is better..."
Yukino Yukinoshita had thought Mochizuki Yo was thinking seriously, but he said such irritating words, this ungrateful guy.
Yukinoshita's expression was not good. She gritted her pearly teeth and directly reached out her jade hand to fiercely pinch Mochizuki!
Then she walked forward.
"Ow! It hurts!"
Mochizuki cried out in pain.
Then he quickly followed Yukino Yukinoshita. It seemed that clothing and similar items could not be chosen as gifts.
Because Mochizuki had no idea what size Shiina Mahiru wore, it would be troublesome if it didn't fit.
...
They continued walking forward.
This time, Mochizuki saw a delicate small alarm clock. Girls should like this, right?
"How about this alarm clock? It can wake her up in the morning."
"Are you celebrating her birthday? Or are you sending her to her grave?"
Yukino Yukinoshita spoke expressionlessly.
"Huh?"
Mochizuki didn't react for a moment. Was Yukino Yukinoshita telling a cold joke? He didn't understand!
Seeing that Mochizuki didn't understand, Yukinoshita was too lazy to explain and said coldly, "No."
Mochizuki put down the alarm clock, and the two continued walking forward.
As they walked, Mochizuki finally understood what Yukino Yukinoshita meant!
Damn it! It's a good thing he didn't give an alarm clock. The implication is so bad.
Along the way, Yukino Yukinoshita also bought some items, mainly some daily necessities and two books.
As for the things, of course, she let Mochizuki, the laborer, carry them.
Next, Mochizuki saw a beautiful crystal ball and thought it was very nice. There were cute cartoon characters in the ball, and snowflakes were fluttering.
It was also quite beautiful and very suitable for collection.
This time, Yukinoshita commented, "This is okay, but I recommend practical items more. Perhaps we can look around to see if there's anything more suitable."
Mochizuki thought it made sense. If there wasn't anything more suitable later, he would come back to buy this crystal ball.
The two continued browsing...
"How about this game console?"
"Are you giving it to a child! Or do you want to play it yourself!"
...
"How about a big snack package?" "Eh, never mind."
Mochizuki suddenly remembered that Shiina Mahiru wasn't the type of person who liked to eat snacks.
...
"How about this mirror?"
"No, don't you think it's strange to give a mirror?"
Mochizuki thought, don't girls all like to look in the mirror?
"Or rather, if you think you can carry this mirror back."
"Cough cough, indeed, never mind."
Mochizuki smiled wryly. Let's forget it. This mirror is too big.
...
"How about this cup?"
"Can I have a mop?"
"What about a suitcase?"
"How about a towel?"
...
Next, the items Mochizuki picked out were all strange.
Yukino Yukinoshita held her forehead and rejected them one by one.
It seemed they could only go back and choose that crystal ball.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw Mochizuki walking towards the cosmetics counter.
Yukino Yukinoshita followed. The counter had lipsticks, hand creams, face masks, conditioners, and other cosmetics or skincare products.
Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but speak. Finally, he was choosing something more normal. She looked at Mochizuki with a look of praise.
"Giving cosmetics to a girl is a good choice."
"Oh! Then how about a lipstick?" Mochizuki was delighted. Finally, there was a suitable gift, and cosmetics were also practical items, especially for girls.
"Lipstick? It's not impossible. But generally, only close friends give lipstick, and you also need to choose the right color. Does your friend wear lipstick?"
As soon as Yukino Yukinoshita spoke, Mochizuki didn't expect there to be such complex knowledge about a single lipstick.
He thought for a moment. Shiina Mahiru didn't seem to wear lipstick.
"She doesn't seem to wear it, so let's not choose lipstick."
Mochizuki turned around, wanting to look at other items.
However, Yukino Yukinoshita grabbed him back.
Mochizuki felt a little coolness from his arm.
"What's wrong?"
Yukino Yukinoshita was helpless. He really didn't know how to choose gifts.
"Aren't there many other items here!"
