“Hehehe, hello.”
The girl giggled foolishly, her cheeks slightly flushed, and hugged the Tutu plushie tightly.
“Um…”
A little nervous, not sure what to say.
“Don’t be scared, don’t be scared, I just wanted to say hi.”
The girl’s delicate voice came from the phone.
She started placing the phone on the bed and lay beside it, her neckline exposing a large swath of smooth skin.
A pink camisole, tightly wrapped around her snowy chest.
“Uwaa…”
She couldn’t help but let out a small sound.
Careful, girl, there are still men…
Well, from convex to concave, not anymore.
“Um, hello.”
Su Xiaoxiao, a little afraid to look, shyly poked her head into the screen, and repeated the same words from the beginning.
“Hey, um, we’ll meet tomorrow afternoon, so let me introduce myself first.”
The girl suppressed her excitement, afraid of scaring away this cute newcomer.
“My name is Su Xin, the ‘Su’ from Su Xiaoxiao, and the ‘Xin’ from happiness. I’m in Class 5, Grade 11.”
She joked.
A Senior from Grade 11!
“Hello, Sister Xin.”
“Sister Xin, hey, that’s good, I like it.”
“Then I’ll call you Xiaomei, ha, little sister is fun.”
The girl laughed, making it clear she was usually lively and cheerful.
“Um….”
Little sister… it was the first time hearing someone call her that.
“Oh, right, tomorrow afternoon our club has a Performance at the School. Some of the Seniors in the club will be performing, so watch closely.”
Soon, the girl in the video relaxed.
“Mm-mm.”
She replied obediently.
She had heard of it, but didn’t know the ACG Club did Performances too…
Uh, that’s a big loss, like losing even your underwear.
“Our club sang at the last event, you know that, right? This time it’s dance, and not just last time—every time, lots of people come to watch.”
Xin-senpai’s lips curled up with pride.
These things proved just how popular their club was.
“I know, I know, how could I not know.”
I don’t know.
“Hmph-hmph~ Also, Xiaomei, what are you planning to do in our club?”
She started asking Su Xiaoxiao, after all, everyone who joined the club had their reasons.
They were all girls with dreams. Even though she didn’t know why there were so few members, having a platform to express yourself was enough.
“…..”
To hit on Xiao…
“For next week’s Cosplay.”
“Oh, I see, that does fit.”
“If it’s white hair, then Vanilla, from Catgirl.”
Stars shone in the girl’s eyes, as if she were expecting something.
“Eh…”
As a self-proclaimed hardcore otaku, Su Xiaoxiao immediately understood what she was talking about.
That anime was full of Catgirls, each so cute it was deadly.
And now, the Senior wanted her to cosplay one of them.
No matter how you thought about it, it felt weird…
“I really want to see it… Xiaomei, let’s do that next week.”
Starting off with a high-difficulty level, please no, she needed to start from the beginner’s tutorial.
Like, let her be a water carrier?
Maybe not.
“I’m not very good…”
“How could you not be!”
***
In the end, she chatted with this defenseless, fluffy Senior for quite a while before hanging up.
Fortunately, at the end, she explained the club’s Rules and how activities were usually held—otherwise it would’ve just been idle chatter (not that she minded).
The holidays were approaching.
Besides tomorrow’s dance, there was the Comic Convention Cosplay next week.
After that, most activities would be held outside during the break.
Occasionally, people would come to School, but those who wanted to watch would have to come out from home.
As for the club’s Rules, they were pretty strict.
That is, club members can’t have boyfriends.
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this rule, her mouth formed an ‘O’. So many bright, youthful girls, and they couldn’t have boyfriends.
So the reason she couldn’t get them before was also because of the Society President…
Fine, you can’t get them without Rules either.
“All right, time to rest.”
Her eyes felt a little tired, so she put down her phone and stopped overthinking, lying on the bed and getting ready to sleep.
Today passed quickly, and before she knew it, the morning sunlight was already rising over the city.
The white-haired girl got ready and went to School.
During class, she kept wondering what costume Xiaoli would wear for Cosplay, and just like that, morning passed and it was lunchtime.
“Hey…”
She giggled foolishly now and then and was finally discovered.
“Xiaoxiao, you seem really happy today. Something good happen? Share it with me.”
Next to her, Xiaoyun seemed to have forgotten about yesterday, now looking cheerful.
“By the way, about yesterday, I misunderstood you. Sorry, wu.”
Thinking of yesterday, the girl lowered her head to Su Xiaoxiao, looking apologetic.
That thing?
Judging by this, the Senior must have resolved it.
I have to thank her properly when we meet.
“It’s nothing, don’t worry.”
Just don’t randomly cry next time, it’s really troublesome to attract attention. Originally, it wasn’t much, but you almost got me in trouble.
“A gift to apologize to Xiaoxiao.”
She took out bread from the drawer—oh, not bread, a small cake. It seemed like she’d prepared it in advance as an apology.
“Oh, thank you, Xiaoyun.”
Seeing the delicious-looking treat, she was grateful and wanted to eat it right away.
“Hey.”
“Xiaoxiao.”
Suddenly, a cool yet gentle voice came from the window.
“Mm?..Wow! It’s that Senior from the ACG Club. Xiaoxiao, you really joined!”
Ning Xiaoyun leaned over and whispered excitedly, her expression unclear whether she was surprised or jealous.
It was Xiao-senpai.
The people in the class also looked toward the sound.
A tall figure, beautiful features, and that signature orange hair—anyone could tell who it was at a glance.
Wasn’t she the beautiful Society President of the ACG Club?
For a moment, everyone stared at the classroom door, unwilling to look away, while also eyeing the new girl.
“Senior, what’s up?”
She stepped out of the classroom and stood in front of her. Today was another day of looking up.
Who doesn’t like a beautiful Senior?
“That thing from yesterday, it’s settled.”
Xiaoyun stated plainly, as if it had been dealt with easily.
Eh, so it really was the Senior who handled it.
For a moment, Su Xiaoxiao felt this big sister was so reliable, more so than her parents before—few people were willing to help her.
“Thank you, Senior!”
With a grateful heart, she shouted a bit loudly and gave a 90-degree bow.
It was tough being gossiped about, especially that kind of… Judging from everyone’s reaction in class this morning, it was definitely fine now.
She didn’t know how it was resolved, but who was Xiao-senpai? She was the leader of the beautiful girl club!
“Ahem, no need for that.”
Xiaoyun’s face turned a little red.
Actually, she hadn’t been the one to solve the rumor incident, but to win the underclassman’s favor, she thought it was fine to take credit—after all, the post really was deleted.
“Have you eaten? I’ll take you to the clubroom. If not, let’s eat together?”
The Senior invited Su Xiaoxiao. Her tone was still cool, but it made people feel safe even if it was a little intimidating.
“Okay, I haven’t eaten yet.”
She lifted her head and mustered the courage to agree.
It wasn’t because she wanted to have lunch with a beautiful Senior, just that she figured she should learn about the club in advance if she was going in the afternoon.
Trust me, Su Xiaoxiao. I vouch for myself.
“Mm, then let’s go.”
The tall Senior took her hand.
The soft touch made Su Xiaoxiao’s face go redder.
Senior, Senior’s hand, wu….
Then, hand in hand, Su Xiaoxiao and her walked away from the classroom door. Watching them were not only the boys in class but also her poor deskmate.
She stared blankly at the small cake she’d just given away.
It still sat quietly on the desk, looking lonely—just like her right now.
