Zongman: Exchange lives with the heroines

The exhibition hall exhibits not only cats and dogs, but also various other animals.

Parrots, hamsters, rabbits, snow sculptures, penguins...

Many tourists stopped to watch.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino did not stay for a moment, but went straight to the cat exhibition area.

Xia Mo walked behind, quite speechless.

Is this a cat slave?

You are too impatient.

Suddenly, Yukinoshita Yukino stopped and looked back at him.

You naughty sister, you finally remembered to wait for me.

Xia Mo quickened his pace.

Three seconds later.

Looking at the dog exhibition in front of him, and then at Yukinoshita Yukino who was shrinking beside him, he realized.

"Are you afraid of dogs?"

"I'm waiting for you."

"Are you afraid of dogs?"

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

"Are you afraid of dogs?"

"…Are you going or not?"

Yukinoshita Yukino stared at Xia Mo with her beautiful eyes.

"I'm leaving."

Xia Mo stretched out his hand with a smile.

"…No need, it's enough for you to walk in front."

After hesitating for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head and refused.

However, Xia Mo had already seen through her and simply held her hand and left.

Yukinoshita Yukino struggled a little, then just let it go.

The two held hands and walked through the dog exhibition area to the cat exhibition area.

"Mo Jun, can you let go now?"

"Hold it, I don't mind."

"I mind."

"What's there to mind? Your body has no secrets from me."

"?!"

It's true, but can you shut up?!

Yukinoshita Yukino pulled her hand out with force and glared at Xia Mo fiercely.

“This cat is so beautiful.”

Xia Mo seemed to look at the cat next to him with great interest.

"Yeah, it's cute."

Yukinoshita Yukino's attention was instantly diverted.

Next is cat watching time.

Shorthair cat, Ragdoll cat, Maine Coon cat, Persian cat, Scottish Fold cat, Russian Blue cat, Garfield cat...

With so many beautiful and cute cats, Yukinoshita Yukino was completely addicted, forgetting about time and even her worries.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

There was a strange movement in her hair, and Yukinoshita Yukino came back to her senses. She turned her head to look, and was immediately speechless.

"Mo Jun, are you a child?"

"Yukino, you don't understand. This is a man's dream."

Xia Mo grabbed Xue No's two ponytails and shook them.

"Are all men's dreams so childish?"

"A man is a boy until he dies."

"The boy is not as naive as you."

Only elementary school students like to play with girls' hair like this.

Yukinoshita Yukino freed her twin tails and looked up at the clock in the exhibition hall.

It's almost noon, time to leave.

Wait, that's...

A pure white kitten caught the girl's attention.

She walked over uncontrollably, squatted down, and stared at the kitten intently.

"Meow~~"

The kitten raised its head and looked at the strange human in front of it, making sounds that were heavenly to cat slaves.

"Meow~~"

Yukinoshita Yukino meowed subconsciously.

"Kacha~!"

The sound of flash lights rang out.

Yukinoshita Yukino turned her head and looked.

"What are you doing?"

"You're so cute, Yukino."

Xia Mo showed her the photos he took with his cell phone.

When Yukinoshita Yukino reacted, her fair and beautiful face flushed.

"Delete it!"

“It’s so cute, I can’t bear to delete it.”

Xia Mo quickly put away his phone.

"Even if you say that, delete it."

Yukinoshita Yukino suppressed the strangeness in her heart, took a deep breath, and stood up.

"I have an idea."

Xia Mo tried to change the subject.

"If you don't want to listen, delete the photos."

"Let's buy this cat."

"Buy it? The cat?"

Following the direction of Xia Mo's finger, Yukinoshita Yukino saw the pure white kitten and her heart beat fast.

For a cat lover, Xia Mo's proposal seemed irresistible.

"But cats are not allowed in the apartment."

"Move to an apartment where you can keep a cat."

"But I'm worried that I won't be able to take good care of it."

"I'll come, raise me there."

"can you?"

"How can a man say no!"

"Don't be so stubborn..."

"You are so troublesome."

Isn't it just raising a cat?

If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't work.

Being timid, like a woman.

Xia Mo simply ignored Yukinoshita Yukino and went to find the staff himself to inquire about the purchase procedures.

……

noon.

The two left the exhibition hall.

Yukinoshita Yukino said dissatisfiedly: "Mo-kun, why did you leave the candy there?"

"toffee?"

Xia Mo was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a frown: "That's my cat, don't give it a random name!"

"I didn't pick a random name. Doesn't Toffee sound good?"

"Not bad, but it's my cat, and only I can name it."

"Mr. Mo, your naming will delay Toffee."

"No matter what you say, it's my cat and I can only give it a name."

Xia Mo insisted on not giving up the naming rights.

Yukinoshita Yukino was very unhappy, but there was nothing she could do.

The cat was indeed bought by Xia Mo, so it was natural for him to name it.

"What are you going to name it?"

"toffee."

"?!"

"Just kidding, I want to name it Meow Nai, what do you think?"

"Not as good as candy."

"Okay, since you agree, then it's meow."

Xia Mo said seriously.

Yukinoshita Yukino curled her lips but didn't object and asked the previous question for the second time.

Why keep the cats in the exhibit?

"because……"

If you take Meonai away, your attention will no longer be on me.

Xia Mo naturally would not tell such a big truth, otherwise he would definitely be laughed at for being jealous of a cat.

He thought for a moment and said, "Do you remember why you came to Tokyo to see me?"

Solve the interpersonal relationship problems caused by the huge difference between before and after.

"…Have you figured out a solution?"

"I think I have some idea."

"What is it?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice sounded slightly expectant.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, she was unable to solve her current predicament on her own and had to seek help from external forces.

"Let's have lunch first and talk while we eat."

Xia Mo took Yukinoshita Yukino's hand and walked towards the street restaurant.

……

"Welcome, eh, Xia Mo-jun, Miss Yukinoshita."

In the restaurant, Nanami Aoyama, who was dressed as a waitress, saw Natsume and Yukinoshita Yukino and a surprised smile appeared on her face.

However, after noticing the two holding hands, her expression became subtle.

Are they really a couple?

Yukinoshita Yukino noticed this scene, looked down, and quickly pulled her hand away.

"Good afternoon, Ms. Aoyama."

She greeted nonchalantly.

"Qingshan, long time no see."

Xia Mo greeted him in a familiar tone, and then couldn't help but complain: "Why are you working every time I see you? Are you the legendary 'Tokyo Working Queen'?"

"No way, Xia Mojun is exaggerating."

Nanami Aoyama waved her hands awkwardly.

Although I am either working a part-time job or on my way to work every day, the title of "Tokyo Part-time Queen" is really exaggerated.

As for why every time we met, we were working...

"Xia Mojun and I are not from the same school. If we want to meet, it's unlikely that we will meet except when I'm working."

"That makes sense. It's not easy to meet each other. Qingshan, let's exchange contact information."

I don't mean anything else, I just want to make friends.

Xia Mo took out his cell phone.

Nanami Aoyama was stunned when she saw this.

Ask me for contact information?

Is this appropriate?

Is your girlfriend still here?

"is it not OK?"

"Uh...ok."

After exchanging contact information.

Nanami Aoyama explained to Yukinoshita Yukino for some unknown reason.

"Xia Mojun and I are just ordinary friends."

Yukinoshita Yukino and Natsume looked at her with strange eyes at the same time.

Is there any other relationship?

"I'm sorry, please forget what you just said."

Nanami Aoyama realized that she had made a mistake and immediately covered her face to apologize, her voice shattered into a Kansai accent.

It's over, the image is completely ruined.

The girl's face turned redder.

Xia Mo teased, "Qingshan is very cute."

stare!

A cold gaze fell on him.

It turns out you two really have another relationship!

"I'm sorry, please forget what you just said."

Xia Mo realized that he was too reckless, so he admitted his mistake and apologized.

"You have nothing to do with me, there's no need to apologize to me."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked away and tried to keep her tone calm.

"Qingshan, I heard that tsundereness ruins one's life, is that true?"

Xia Mo asked seriously.

Nanami Aoyama laughed dryly and said nothing. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the two of them.

"Yukino, look, Qingshan agrees, don't you know how to repent?"

Xia Mo lied with his eyes open.

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't react much.

Nanami Aoyama widened her eyes in disbelief.

I have no grudge against you, why are you framing me like this?

……

Lunch was held in a private room.

On the way to eat.

Xia Mo also conducted talk therapy for Yukinoshita Yukino.

The first step is to find out the cause of Yukinoshita Yukino's pain.

Why is it painful?

Because she couldn't deal with the interpersonal relationships left by Miss Xue Mo.

It was also because she found it difficult to accept her family's expectations for Miss Xue Mo's return and their denial of the value of her existence.

Moreover, she could not tolerate herself as a superfluous and inferior product.

The second step is the solution - two options: change or no change.

The latter means continuing to maintain her original cold and paranoid style, and then with the passage of time, the interpersonal relationships left by Miss Xue Mo will dissipate on their own, her family will no longer have any expectations of her, and everyone will keep their distance from her as usual.

"Is that what you wish for? Yukino."

Xia Mo looked at Yukinoshita Yukino seriously.

"I have no idea."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked away slightly, her voice sounding quite confused.

Xia Mo corrected: "No, you know."

"I know?"

"Of course you know that you want to change, otherwise why would you come to Tokyo to find me? Wouldn't it be better to stay in Chiba and do nothing?"

Xia Mo's words made Yukinoshita Yukino fall silent.

Yes, she did want to make a change.

Gain recognition from family, be welcomed by everyone, make many friends, fight against school violence...

She also wants to do what Miss Xue Mo did.

But if she does that, wouldn't she become another Miss Xue Mo?

But if she doesn't do this, won't she just not change at all?

In this regard, Xia Five-Star Admiral Mo commented.

MDZZ!

Is there any necessary connection between the two?

Aren't those things you want to do?

Miss Xue Mo did what you wanted to do and then you do what you want to do. Will this lead to you becoming Miss Xue Mo?

That's not going to work at all. It doesn't make sense at all.

"I mean, I don't want to play Miss Xuemo."

Yukinoshita Yukino doesn't want to be a poor imitation of Miss Yukimo.

Xia Mo said calmly: "You never need to play Miss Xue Mo, you just need to be yourself and do what you want to do."

“…I probably can’t do those things.”

Yukinoshita Yukino looked a little lonely.

Other things might be negotiable, but she is really bad at interpersonal relationships.

"I'll help you."

"……How to help?"

"How can I help? An external brain, off-field support, or just an assistant. I can't just take over for you when you're in trouble."

Xia Mo looked at Yukinoshita Yukino and said earnestly, "Yukino, you have to solve your own problems. I am just a person who gives you advice. Do you understand?"

It is easy to understand, but difficult to act.

Fortunately, Yukinoshita Yukino is not someone who backs down when faced with difficulties.

After a while, she cheered up and asked Xia Mo some questions.

How do the mother and sister at home cope with it?

"It's simple for mom and sister. Just call and apologize, and tell them that you had an argument with me that day and that you were in a bad mood and not in the right state. We are all family and they will forgive you."

“…I can’t be in a bad mood all the time. Sooner or later, my mother and sister will find out the difference between me and Miss Xue Mo.”

"So what if she found out? Miss Xue Mo was obviously different from you at the beginning. Didn't mom and sister accept it?"

What else can we do? We are all members of the Xue family, can we still return the goods?

"Of course, you should also make appropriate changes and try to gain the approval of your mother and sister."

You can't remain the same idiot, you have to at least grow up a little.

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slowly and turned to ask the second question.

How to face Yuigahama Yui and the others?

Xia Mo replied - Use the excuse of quarreling with me to cover up the huge changes in yourself, and then both of you can get along normally. If you get along well, continue to get along. If not, slowly reduce contact. By the way, remember to be sweet-mouthed, and feel free to contact me if you have any questions along the way.

In general, the idea is to transform Miss Xue Mo's friends into Yukinoshita Yukino's friends, so that there won't be a feeling of who is the inferior product of whom.

"……I see."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded, but she felt very nervous.

Can the conversion be successful?

Could it be that all of Miss Xue Mo’s friends have run away?

Although she didn't care much about these things, Xia Mo would definitely laugh at her if she didn't leave any friends behind.

……

Lunch is over.

The two left the restaurant and discussed their plan of action for the afternoon.

Sayuri Sawamura sent a message complaining about her useless daughter.

Yukinoshita Yukino handed the phone to Xia Mo.

The meaning is obvious, you go back and forth.

"Watch me operate, and you can reply on your own later."

Xia Mo took the phone and chatted with Sayuri Sawamura.

Yukinoshita Yukino stood by and watched attentively.

ten minutes later.

Yukinoshita Yukino took the phone from Xia Mo and asked in confusion: "Why did you invite Sawamura Eriri to come over?"

Xia Mo said calmly: "Aren't you lacking confidence? Then practice with Ying Lili first."
