My Girlfriend Is a Magical Girl! Chapter 12

And she smelled so good, like flowers.

"Where are your hands?" Tang Zhiqing asked.

"Probably on your waist."

"Where are your legs?" Tang Zhiqing took a deep breath.

"Maybe on your legs."

"Then can you get up now?"

No, because my face was on your boobs.

When Ran Yanyue entered the Student Council room, she saw that Tang Zhiqing was unusually upset and asked, "Where's Lu Ming?"

"He got a nosebleed and went to the infirmary." Tang Zhiqing replied irritably.

"You beat him until he bled?" Ran Yanyue frowned.

"He started bleeding on his own."

"How could he bleed for no reason?"

Tang Zhiqing fell silent and looked down at her chest.

Did that guy like boobs that much?

He was always secretly looking at hers, too.

When Lu Ming got home, Lu Annuan had just arrived as well.

"Lu Ming... can I stay at your house for the next few days?" Lu Annuan asked, her cheeks slightly red.

Chapter 11: Lu Annuan's Suitor?

Lu Annuan had clear almond-shaped eyes, a delicate straight nose, soft rosy lips, and exquisitely refined features that gave her an innocent, otherworldly beauty. Her skin was smooth as cream. She wore the International Middle School uniform, its skirt falling to her knees and revealing a pair of fair, slender calves. Her round-toed brown leather boots were so clean they shone, while her long, straight black hair made her seem even more innocent and adorable.

Then she said she wanted to stay overnight at Lu Ming's house.

That was a little too much for an energetic high school boy, especially for Lu Ming, who had been suppressed by Tang Zhiqing's boobs that afternoon.

"I noticed you haven't been eating properly lately. Ordering takeout all the time isn't good either, so if we live together, I can at least help Uncle and Aunt take care of you." Lu Annuan tucked the hair by her cheek behind her ear and pretended nothing was amiss.

Once Lu Ming had been targeted by an Evil Beast, there would be a second time. If she got sleepy by accident again and nearly let Lu Ming get attacked like before, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Lu Annuan had spent an entire morning at school chewing on her pen and thinking. She had even been punished by the teacher and made to stand in the hallway for half a period because she forgot to listen to the lesson, before finally coming up with this idea.

Although... the idea made her a little embarrassed.

After all, even though she and Lu Ming were childhood friends, there had been a period when they had grown distant. Now that their relationship had only just recovered a little, living together would definitely be awkward.

But then Lu Annuan thought about it again. Human life was what mattered most. Her little bit of embarrassment was nothing, right?

Lu Ming looked troubled as he watched Lu Annuan. He felt like he had improper thoughts about her, but he was too embarrassed to tell her directly. What if she laughed at him?

Kaguya Shinomiya's voice was already ringing in Lu Ming's head.

—How cute~

If Lu Annuan mocked him like that, his toes could dig out a three-bedroom apartment without shared common areas.

Still, he would just treat it as being for the possible system rewards later. It definitely wasn't because he wanted to live with Lu Annuan.

Having made up his mind, Lu Ming let Lu Annuan in.

Lu Annuan sat down with her schoolbag and asked curiously, "What do you usually do at home after starting high school?"

What, were you here to investigate just how idle I was too?

"I do homework, play some mobile games, then watch anime and TV dramas," Lu Ming said.

"More than half of that is fooling around." Lu Annuan muttered.

She was actually in a pretty good mood. Now that she was here, she would properly straighten out Lu Ming's daily routine.

Although her grades were worse than Lu Ming's, as a national youth athlete, she was excellent at time management.

A time-management master!

"Come to think of it, I've never seen any friends come looking for you. Don't tell me you have no friends?" Lu Annuan teased with a grin.

"If you say so, then sure. I won't argue." Lu Ming neither confirmed nor denied it. Did he need to tell Lu Annuan that he was friends with Wang?

Something vibrated in his pants.

It was his phone.

And it was actually Ran Yanyue.

Lu Ming glanced at the message. "I'm heading downstairs for a bit. My friend is bringing me her homework notes."

"Okay, okay."

Lu Annuan tilted her head and watched Lu Ming's retreating figure curiously.

What kind of person was his friend?

Probably a boy, right?

With Lu Ming's rotten personality, it definitely couldn't be a girl.

Lu Annuan was rather curious.

Ran Yanyue was sitting in the car when she saw Lu Ming run out of the residential complex. She rolled down the window and handed him a notebook. "Here. These are the English key points, sentence structures, and advanced vocabulary I summarized after getting home. Memorize them, and scoring over a hundred will be easy."

Lu Ming took it. "Committee Member Ran, you're riding in such a low-key car today?"

She was sitting in a Mercedes-Benz S450. Its glossy black body exuded luxury and money, and its wheels gleamed.

The car Ran Yanyue rode in at first had been even more luxurious, directly stunning the young people of Haiyang No. 2 Middle School.

"It wouldn't be low-key if I tied you to the trunk." Ran Yanyue said. "What are you doing at home?"

My childhood friend is about to move in with me.

"Getting ready to eat while watching the Battle Through the Heavens anime," Lu Ming said.

He would leave out the truth for now.

Ran Yanyue frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "I think I've heard other students mention it. Who's the good guy and who's the bad guy in that work?"

Ran Yanyue's question was almost excessively innocent, like something a child would ask.

Even more innocent than Ding Zhen from the mountains.

She had not watched many widely acclaimed literary or artistic works since she was young. Her childhood had consisted of music and hospitals.

"The good-looking ones are good people, and the ugly ones are bad people," Lu Ming said.

"That sounds like an animation with very simple values, something for preschoolers. It suits you quite well." Ran Yanyue said. It was hard to imagine that a face with the beauty of an ancient Greek statue could say something so cold.

Why not make that even clearer?

Who's an idiot? inhales Who's an idiot?! voice rises

"Are you eating alone?" Ran Yanyue asked. That would be rather lonely. If he was too lonely and pitiful, it wasn't like she couldn't take him home for a meal.

"No, I'm eating with my friend."

Ran Yanyue froze for a moment.

Then she suddenly saw a very pretty girl peeking out from the building Lu Ming had come from.

She remembered her... Lu Ming's childhood friend, Lu Annuan.

This girl was also quite famous at Haiyang No. 2 Middle School. She was many students' Moonlight.

Following Ran Yanyue's gaze, Lu Ming also spotted Lu Annuan.

Oh no, they met!

No, wait, why was I panicking?

I stood straight and acted right. What the hell was I afraid of?

Having been noticed, Lu Annuan awkwardly walked over and greeted Ran Yanyue. "Hello, you're Lu Ming's classmate, right? Thank you for helping him study."

"I'm the study committee member. Helping fellow students study is only natural." Ran Yanyue nodded lightly.

"I see. Lu Ming and I are cooking at home. Would you like to come eat with us?" Lu Annuan asked with a smile.

Ran Yanyue glanced at Lu Ming. "No need. You two enjoy yourselves."

That single glance felt like ten thousand years.

Lu Ming felt that look weigh heavily on him.

Why had the atmosphere suddenly become so murderous?

The residential complex entrance at three quarters past five transformed into the starting point of a magnificent battle!

"Our parents are both away, so it's just more convenient for us to stay together and eat." Lu Ming hurriedly explained. "Our families are only missing a shared household registration booklet. You're in me and I'm in you."

You're welcome to join this big family too.

It wasn't like I wanted to talk dirty.

Stop fucking brainstorming.

Ran Yanyue nodded lightly. "Mm. I'll be going, then."

Sitting in the car, Ran Yanyue thought about how Lu Ming and Lu Annuan had looked just now.

"Do parents not care when high school boys and girls live together these days?" Ran Yanyue murmured, somewhat unable to believe it.

And Lu Annuan... her face was so pretty, and her legs were so long.

She looked like the sunny, cheerful athletic type, her ponytail bouncing up and down.

She was one of the rare people who made even proud Ran Yanyue feel a little pressure.

"So it was a girl." Lu Annuan casually glanced at Lu Ming.

What did you mean by that?

Was it strange for me to have a girlfriend?

I meant a female friend.

"And she's so pretty too. How nice." Lu Annuan hummed.

Why did she sound so sarcastic?

Lu Annuan felt a little unhappy inside.

She had thought a guy like Lu Ming definitely wouldn't have many female friends, but the first one she met was such a pretty girl—and even a rich young lady.

That unexpected discovery immediately made Lu Annuan feel depressed. She ground her teeth and glared fiercely at Lu Ming.

"That was the study committee member you mentioned before, right? She's really pretty." Lu Annuan sincerely remarked.

Ran Yanyue was rather petite, but her face was delicate and her temperament elegant. She was the rich young lady type.

It made Lu Annuan a little envious of her.

"You don't like her, do you?" Lu Annuan teased. "She's a rich young lady. She won't be interested in you."

"You're the only one who likes me!" Lu Ming shot back.

Lu Annuan blushed and stuck out her tongue. "I don't like you at all!"

Yes, you do!

Lu Annuan secretly glanced at Lu Ming. "If you confess and get rejected, then as your childhood friend, I'll reluctantly comfort you."

With your body?

Never mind.
