"Then we'll see each other later."
Lin Bai didn't even hesitate for a moment regarding Akashiya Moka's invitation; he immediately agreed.
He had no plans for the afternoon anyway.
He had originally intended to play games.
But how could he miss an invitation for a date from a beautiful girl?
After setting the time and place.
Lin Bai lay on the sofa without moving, and opened another message.
Shiwa: "Kouhai-kun, are you feeling better?"
Her full name is Kasumigaoka Shiwa.
She is the black-stocking senior from "How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend".
She debuted as a light novel author under the pen name Kasumi Utako, and is also a top-ranking academic student.
Flashback to two and a half years ago.
After transmigrating, Lin Bai understood the world situation and his own circumstances, then formulated a plan.
For example, how to make money to improve his life.
After much thought, besides working part-time and finding a rich woman, the most suitable path for him was to start from the ACGN aspect.
That is, anime, comics, games, and novels.
Without much deliberation, Lin Bai directly chose light novels.
After a period of market research and preparation, Lin Bai debuted under the pen name 'Daydream'.
His debut work was "Game of the Gods".
He participated in the Fushikawa Bunko New Star Award, successfully winning the grand prize money and multi-channel promotional resources.
The first volume sold over 100,000 copies in its first week.
Becoming the undisputed Rookie King.
Later, through his editor Machida Sonoko, he met Kasumigaoka Shiwa, who was going through a tough time, and gradually they became close.
They had known each other for a year now.
As for their relationship, it could only be described as being in an ambiguous state.
Looking at Kasumigaoka Shiwa's message, Lin Bai's lips curved slightly:
"I'm fine, and I'm in excellent shape now. Doing seven push-ups a night is a piece of cake."
Meanwhile, in Taito Ward.
In a room on the twelfth floor of a high-end apartment.
Kasumigaoka Shiwa was wearing a slightly loose white nightgown, its neckline open, revealing her collarbones.
Below, one could see her ample chest.
She sat at her computer desk.
Her hands held her phone, resting on the desk.
Her soft black hair fell over her shoulders, and on her fair, delicate face, her red lips curved gently upwards.
"Seven push-ups a night..."
Looking at Lin Bai's reply, her beautiful ruby-like eyes narrowed slightly.
Then she thought of something.
Her cheeks flushed a faint cherry red.
A hint of shyness flashed in her eyes.
Her finger tapped the screen to type her reply:
"Kouhai-kun, I want to know, are the push-ups you're talking about the proper kind of push-ups?"
Lin Bai's reply quickly popped up:
"Of course they're proper. Is there an improper kind?
If there is, tell me, I'm very curious. It would be even better if Senior could teach me hands-on."
"Hands-on..."
Faced with Lin Bai's undisguised teasing, Kasumigaoka Shiwa couldn't help but think of certain scenes that would require payment.
A flush, red as ink spreading in water, bloomed on her cheeks.
Like a peach blossom in full bloom.
Alluring and charming.
Trying hard not to think of those paywalled scenes, Kasumigaoka Shiwa composed herself and began to type her reply:
"Oh my, since Kouhai-kun is so open about his perverted desires, should I agree to your request?"
On the other side, Nerima Ward.
Reading Kasumigaoka Shiwa's message, the curve of Lin Bai's lips held a hint of amusement:
"Do you even need to ask? After all, what's our relationship?"
Kasumigaoka Shiwa blinked lightly, seemingly a little expectant:
"Oh, what is our relationship?"
"Is it the relationship between a Senior and a Kouhai? Or a mentor and junior? Or something else?"
Lin Bai: "What do you think our relationship should be?"
Kasumigaoka Shiwa: "I asked first. First come, first served."
Lin Bai: "Alright, I think we have the kind of relationship where we can do this and that together in a room."
Kasumigaoka Shiwa immediately understood Lin Bai's implied meaning, shyness flashed in her eyes, and her pretty face turned slightly red.
She pursed her red lips and began to type:
"Do what together? Can you be a little clearer?"
Lin Bai: "You know."
"It's the kind of thing that's sometimes intense, sometimes gentle, and both parties are very happy afterwards."
"..."
Although she knew Lin Bai was deliberately leading her to think dirty thoughts, Kasumigaoka Shiwa still couldn't help herself.
She involuntarily thought of some exciting and passionate scenes.
Her gaze flickered slightly, and her slender, straight, fleshy, snow-white legs couldn't help but press together and rub gently.
She suddenly felt a little hot.
A moment later, seeing that Kasumigaoka Shiwa didn't reply as quickly as before, Lin Bai couldn't help but smile with amusement.
As their relationship gradually became more familiar.
Their conversations also became increasingly casual.
Lin Bai knew what kind of personality Kasumigaoka Shiwa had.
She seemed like a quiet, beautiful girl, but sometimes in conversation, she would speak without restraint, often making explosive statements.
She also had a poisonous tongue attribute.
Of course, it was just an embellishment; she wouldn't easily use her poisonous tongue.
Moreover, she was high-attack and low-defense, and her situation could be described with a perfectly ripe banana.
She looked very yellow on the outside, but was white on the inside.
Time slowly passed.
An hour later, after finishing his chat with Kasumigaoka Shiwa, Lin Bai tidied himself up and went out again.
He put on a mask and a hat.
This was to reduce the possibility of being approached by others.
Many people desired him; if he didn't disguise himself, someone would definitely come to chat him up.
Women were fine, but what if it was a man?
After all, the world was too complex, and boys also had to protect themselves when going out.
Near the Station.
Arriving at the coffee shop where he agreed to meet Akashiya Moka, Lin Bai ordered a coffee and began to wait.
He didn't wait too long.
In less than five minutes, Akashiya Moka arrived at the coffee shop.
"Moka, over here."
Lin Bai stood up and called out to her.
"Lin Bai!"
Seeing Lin Bai again, Akashiya Moka's delicate face bloomed with a joyful smile like a flower.
She quickly walked towards him.
Ever since she parted ways with Lin Bai, she found herself thinking of him and wanting to meet him more and more often.
She was a little confused about this.
Because she wasn't sure if she wanted to see Lin Bai, or if she wanted to drink his blood again.
However, the two didn't seem to conflict.
She really did want to see Lin Bai again.
Because Lin Bai was her first friend in the human world.
She also really wanted to drink Lin Bai's blood.
Unlike the blood in the blood bags, Lin Bai's blood gave her an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
After Akashiya Moka sat down opposite Lin Bai, a coffee shop staff member also came over.
Akashiya Moka looked at the menu, hesitated for a while, and finally ordered a cappuccino for herself.
"Please wait a moment." The staff member turned and left.
Akashiya Moka looked at Lin Bai with surprise: "Lin Bai, why do I feel like you've changed?"
She felt that Lin Bai looked even better.
Although at first glance he didn't seem to have changed, the feeling he gave off was different from yesterday, more pleasing to the eye.
Lin Bai smiled slightly at Akashiya Moka's surprise:
"Maybe it's because I encountered something good yesterday, slept well last night, so my mood is different."
"After all, mood can affect a person's spirit and energy."
"Is that so..."
Hearing this explanation, Akashiya Moka felt it made some sense.
Then she asked with a curious smile: "Then what good thing did you encounter yesterday, Lin Bai?"
Lin Bai's lips curved slightly: "Actually, quite a few, such as the matter of becoming friends with you, Moka."
"Oh!"
Akashiya Moka's eyes widened slightly...
