The backdrop can also be propped up.
Chapter 218, next one: Infinite Flow
"Yes, it was just out of curiosity," Jiang Hai felt he had a chance to explain himself. "I came upstairs to take a look after I finished walking around downstairs."
"Oh, really?" Lu Renkui tapped the coffee table with the hand that wasn't touching the cup. "Bai Xinyi told us that the mall mainly sells women's clothing, so it has six floors. The first, second, and third floors sell women's clothing, and the fourth and fifth floors sell men's clothing. The sixth floor is obviously for jewelry. Bai Xinyi was looking at clothes on the third floor. May I ask which floor, the first or second, you got tired of shopping on?"
"You wouldn't be so bored at home that you went to the first or second floor to browse women's clothing and buy a few outfits to dress up as a little boy, would you?"
Jiang Hai's forehead was now sweating, and for the first time, he felt that the situation was beyond his control.
He was already annoyed by the Blue Star Map, but it was still within his control. However, what "Ying Meihua" said not only disrupted his original plan to ask Bai Xinyi why she changed her style, but also dug a pit for him to fall into. Now, no matter what he said, he seemed somewhat pale and powerless.
"I should have done some research before I left home," Jiang Hai thought through gritted teeth.
“Uh… well… Jiang Hai, I heard you have Hanahaki Disease,” Bai Xinyi finally figured out what to say, “and then I heard that you like me.”
Having one's feelings suddenly revealed can be quite unsettling—even though Jiang Hai no longer likes Bai Xinyi as much, his heart still races.
Lan Xingtu seemed to have reached her limit. She clenched her fist, stood up, and then saw "Ying Meihua" take out a fist-sized coffee cup from her pocket, and "Ying Meihua" turned her head towards her.
Remembering how easily Ying Meihua had pinned him to the table last time, and how he couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried, Lan Xingtu sat back down, biting his lip and cursing Bai Xinyi in his heart with the most vicious words.
Jiang Hai didn't want to admit that he liked Bai Xinyi yet, so he said, "I don't like you, don't flatter yourself."
"Oh, I was overthinking it. That's good." Bai Xinyi knew Jiang Hai wouldn't admit it, so she decided to subtly reject him from another angle. "You're not my type anyway, so I don't have to worry about us falling out if you confess to me."
Hearing this, Jiang Hai felt his pride was hurt, and he couldn't help but ask, "So, is that why you changed your style?"
"Huh? What?"
"Did you change your style because the person you like has this style?" Jiang Hai asked again.
"Oh, about changing my style," Bai Xinyi said, "because I wanted to try a new style. This will be my style from now on." And incidentally, to further diminish your affection for me, my hair.
“Your style,” Jiang Hai said, “I don’t think many people will like it.”
"Oh, really?" Bai Xinyi straightened her wolf tail and said, "But a lot of people praised me when I posted it online. Everyone has different tastes. If you don't like it, you don't like it. Why do you say that no one likes my style?"
Jiang Hai fell silent, seemingly thinking of how to refute, but Lu Renkui did not intend to give him that chance.
"If you don't like it, then let's just say we were overthinking it." Lu Renkui said, leading Bai Xinyi back. "Let's go, after we finish our drinks, let's go to the next place to play."
Lu Changge had been waiting for a long time. Seeing the two return, he hurriedly asked, "How did it go?"
“That guy seemed really devastated,” Bai Xinyi said. “Was I a bit too harsh?”
“Those words were already mild,” Lu Renkui said, repeating Bai Xinyi’s words to Lu Changge.
"Wow, you're still too gentle." Lu Changge said indignantly, "If this guy said that not many people like my style, I would definitely give him two middle fingers first, and then say, 'Where did this tasteless person come from to comment on me?'"
"It's alright, it's alright. Let's finish our food and then go to the next place," Bai Xinyi said with a smile. "I'll take you two to the mall I usually shop at."
“Okay, let me go see which shopping malls rich people usually shop at.” Lu Renkui said with a smile, then quickly finished his mocha and put the coffee cup he had been carrying in his pocket back in its original place.
Watching the three girls leave, Lan Xingtu finally dared to speak. She said indignantly, "Bai Xinyi is a bit ungrateful."
Jiang Hai was still immersed in the scene of being implicitly rejected by Bai Xinyi when he heard Lan Xingtu speak. He then looked at Lan Xingtu in front of him and noticed that her clothes and appearance were seven or eight parts similar to Bai Xinyi's.
Moreover, Lan Xingtu is more obedient and easier to control than Bai Xinyi, and she likes him more than Bai Xinyi does; otherwise, she wouldn't have climbed over the rooftop from outside the coffee shop.
Let's use Lan Xingtu as a stand-in for Bai Xinyi from the past.
Jiang Hai thought about it, and then began to act.
"Don't talk to her like that. Maybe I'm not good enough." Jiang Hai said dejectedly, stirring his now-cold hot Americano.
“How could that be? You’re so outstanding,” Lan Xingtu exclaimed excitedly. “She’s blind to your talent.”
“I think no one in this world likes me anymore,” Jiang Hai said, seeing that Lan Xingtu had fallen for his trick. “I know she didn’t actually want to change her style; she just changed it because she was afraid that I would love her.”
"No, there are still people who love you." Lan Xingtu became even more excited and grabbed Jiang Hai's hand that was holding the small spoon. "I love you, I really love you."
"Really?" Jiang Hai suppressed his disgust and a triumphant smile, narrowed his eyes, released the small spoon, and grasped Lan Xingtu's hands with both of his own. "That's wonderful! Would you like to be my girlfriend?"
"What?" Lan Xingtu was stunned. She thought she had misheard. Was she dreaming? The person she had been longing for was actually confessing his love to her right now.
"You don't want to?" Jiang Hai pretended to be very hurt.
"I, I do! I do!" Lan Xingtu blushed with excitement—she felt incredibly lucky right now. No wonder she ran into those two ugly people today; it was all a prelude to this moment of good fortune.
"Really? That's great! From now on, you'll be my girlfriend." Jiang Hai gently kissed the back of Lan Xingtu's hand, then looked up, closed his eyes, and smiled at Lan Xingtu.
After spending the day shopping with Bai Xinyi, Lu Renkui lay on the bed listening to the system WQBYRZM recount how well the mission in this world was progressing.
"The male and female leads started dating early, so they shouldn't have much time to target other people afterward." System WQBYRZM said that the mission in this world was complete. "Host, get ready, we're leaving."
“Okay,” Lu Renkui closed his eyes, then asked the system WQBYRZM, “Which world are we going to next?”
"Well, this world is currently a mission assigned by the main system—host, how is your mental fortitude?" System WQBYRZM asked.
"Hmm, I'm not sure either. I haven't dared to watch many horror movies, but I can read horror comics and novels. As long as I don't spend too much time looking at the bizarre, I can tolerate it," Lu Renkui replied, scratching his head.
"So that means you still have some capacity to withstand it," said WQBYRZM, the system entry point. "Okay, then we're off to an infinite flow world."
