Chapter 7: First Street (Still Owe Three More Chapters)

“First Street?”

A trace of confusion flashed through Bai Qiqi’s mind.

For some reason, even though the name sounded perfectly normal, it gave her an extremely suspicious feeling.

Could this “First Street” actually be something improper?

But then again, since Senior Sister was taking her there personally, it should probably be a pretty normal place…

Probably?

Surely Senior Sister wouldn’t harm her…

“Ahem.”

Seemingly noticing her own slip-up, Mo Xingmian quickly coughed awkwardly to hide her embarrassment.

“I said it out of habit.”

“The street’s actual name is Lily Street.”

“We just call it First Street because it’s easier to say.”

“There are clothes, toiletries, and all sorts of little things there…”

“Basically, anything you can think of can probably be found there.”

“You’ll understand once we arrive.”

“Oh.”

Following Mo Xingmian, Bai Qiqi left the dormitory district.

As an academy that existed inside a completely separate dimension, the school showed absolutely no restraint when it came to architectural space.

Bai Qiqi had a feeling that without using her Blood Wings, she probably wouldn’t finish exploring the entire place even after three days and nights.

The two quickly arrived at a bustling long street.

As expected of a place called First Street, the road stretched for roughly a thousand meters.

Various shops lined both sides in dazzling variety.

Although some stores still appeared unopened, the flow of people was far from small.

There were even some provocatively dressed senior sisters openly teasing newly arrived freshmen…

This naturally drew Bai Qiqi’s attention.

Noticing Bai Qiqi staring over, one of the senior sisters winked flirtatiously at her while continuing to tease another freshman girl…

“Uh…”

Bai Qiqi hurriedly looked away, the tips of her ears turning slightly red.

According to vampire age standards, she was still basically a baby.

How could she have ever witnessed a scene like this before?

Seeing Bai Qiqi’s adorable reaction, Mo Xingmian couldn’t help laughing softly as she patted her shoulder.

“Our academy has always been like this…”

“The atmosphere is… relatively open-minded…”

“Though it’s still a little better than Witch Academy.”

“In any case, you’ll get used to it eventually.”

After speaking, Mo Xingmian glared at the girl who had winked at Bai Qiqi.

There was a distinctly “kind” look hidden within her brows…

The moment the other girl realized it was Mo Xingmian, she immediately restrained herself and awkwardly smiled at her.

Who could’ve known that after finally spotting a cute junior sister, she had already been claimed by the Student Council President…

“Let’s buy clothes first!”

“You can’t keep wearing only the outfit you have on.”

“What do you think about that shop?”

Following the direction Mo Xingmian pointed toward, Bai Qiqi saw a warmly decorated store.

Several light-colored dresses and casual outfits were displayed in the front window.

They looked extremely suitable for students.

“I’ll follow Senior Sister’s arrangements~”

Bai Qiqi obediently followed Mo Xingmian inside.

Although she really wanted to wear men’s clothes…

This was a magical girl academy full of girls.

There simply weren’t any men’s clothes here.

In fact, she hadn’t even seen anything remotely gender-neutral the entire way here.

The interior of the shop was much larger than it appeared from outside.

All kinds of clothing were neatly organized into categories.

There were even specialized mage robes available here.

“Welcome!”

A shop assistant greeted them with a smile.

But the moment she noticed Mo Xingmian holding Bai Qiqi’s hand, her mouth instantly fell open.

“President, are you here shopping for clothes with your girlfriend?”

“Don’t talk nonsense~”

“She’s just my junior sister~”

Mo Xingmian calmly refuted the statement.

Though for some reason, the way she said it gave off an incredibly guilty-sounding vibe…

“Oh~”

“Just—your junior sister~”

The shop assistant deliberately dragged out her tone while revealing an “I understand everything” smile.

Her eyes circled around the tightly clasped hands of the two girls.

She’s a junior sister…

But she could also become something else…

Mo Xingmian didn’t really react much to the teasing.

As Student Council President, she naturally attracted a fair amount of attention.

She was already used to this sort of thing.

However, Bai Qiqi standing behind her became noticeably redder in the face…

“Senior Sister…”

“Let’s just look at clothes first…”

Bai Qiqi tugged lightly on Mo Xingmian’s sleeve and spoke embarrassedly.

“Alright.”

Mo Xingmian nodded while continuing to hold Bai Qiqi’s hand.

The two wandered through the rows of clothing racks and began selecting clothes on their own.

Meanwhile, the shop assistant had already secretly taken out her phone and snapped several pictures of their intimate interactions before sending them into her dormitory group chat.

[Escaped Kindergarten Senior Class Student: Sisters, who understands this feeling?! I just met the Student Council President. And she was holding hands with an adorable little loli.]

[Elegant Individual: I never thought an iron tree would actually bloom… Though why does this little loli look strangely familiar… I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before…]

[Gugu Gaga: Isn’t that the super popular loli from the school forums?! The top freshman this year?! She got conquered by the president this quickly?!]

[Elegant Individual: Right! Right! It’s her! I heard the vice principal even personally accepted her as a disciple…]

[Escaped Kindergarten Senior Class Student: Holy crap! Is this little loli really that incredible?!]

[Gugu Gaga: Of course she is. She’s ridiculously fierce. You think SSS is a joke or something? And she’s this cute too. I’m betting two spicy sticks that she’ll definitely make top three on the campus beauty rankings!]

[Elegant Individual: Too conservative. I think she’ll be number one.]

[…]

Naturally, Bai Qiqi had no idea that she had already caused a huge uproar on the school forums.

After all, she had been following Senior Sister around the entire time…

“I think this pajama set suits you pretty well.”

Mo Xingmian picked up a green pajama outfit and handed it toward Bai Qiqi.

At this point, Bai Qiqi was already carrying over a dozen outfits in her arms.

Every single one had been personally selected by Mo Xingmian.

Bai Qiqi stared at the dinosaur pajamas in Mo Xingmian’s hands and completely froze.

It was a bright green one-piece pajama suit.

There was a long tail attached to the back.

The hood had a row of tiny triangular spikes sewn onto it.

Even the front had two tiny decorative dinosaur claws…

“Senior Sister…”

“Isn’t this outfit a little too childish…”

Bai Qiqi’s mouth twitched slightly.

Even in vampire society, things like this were worn by children!

Was Senior Sister treating her like a child?!

“How is it childish?!”

Mo Xingmian spoke with complete seriousness.

“It’s autumn now.”

“This kind of fleece-lined outfit is much warmer.”

“Besides, this pajama set is super cute!”

Looking at the pajamas, Bai Qiqi involuntarily imagined herself wearing them.

Her face immediately reddened again.

She was a vampire!

The future Crown Princess of the vampire race!

How could she possibly wear something like this?!

What if pictures somehow spread back to vampire society…

“Senior Sister…”

“How about we choose something more normal?”

Bai Qiqi protested weakly.

“Aiya!”

“This is perfectly normal too!”

“Everyone likes wearing these.”

“Isn’t that right?”

Mo Xingmian blinked and called over the shop assistant from earlier.

The instant she saw Mo Xingmian wink, the shop assistant immediately understood everything.

“Ah! That’s right, that’s right!”

“This pajama set is our best-selling product!”

“Everyone loves wearing it!”

“Aiya, President Xingmian wouldn’t lie to you~”

“It’s genuinely adorable when worn.”

“But…”

“No buts.”

“These are all the clothes you’ve picked so far.”

“Don’t we still have lots of other things to buy?”

“Time is tight and the mission is heavy.”

“Let’s just casually buy this one for now.”

“When we have time later, we can buy more, okay?”

Since Mo Xingmian had already offered her a graceful way out, Bai Qiqi naturally felt too embarrassed to keep resisting…

In the end, she reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Seeing Bai Qiqi agree, a faint smile couldn’t help appearing at the corners of Mo Xingmian’s lips…

“Let’s check out.”

“Alrighty, President~”

“The total comes to 11,451 credit points.”

“I’ll round it down for you.”

“You only need to pay 11,400.”

“No need.”

“Just charge 12,000.”

“Keep the rest as a tip.”

“You performed pretty well just now.”

“Oh, and send these to East District, Row One, Building One.”

Meanwhile, Bai Qiqi stood waiting outside the shop.

Soon, her attention was drawn toward a mysterious-looking street vendor nearby…
