—Both of them were familiar with this place. Yu Zhi had been here a few times when she was a magical girl, and Duanmu Mo had also visited here a few times under the pretext of making a request. As for Neville, he had been here even more times.

They parked the car in the nearby parking lot, and Duanmu Mo patted Yu Zhi's head: "Want to take a walk around the area?"

She had arranged to have lunch with her parents in the afternoon, and since it was still early, the two of them could stroll around here for a while longer.

"Ah."

Duanmu Mo placed the motorcycle gloves on Yu Zhi's head. She felt the cold wind blowing outside, wrapped her large trench coat tighter around herself, and nodded.

The two walked one after the other down the street. The surrounding streets and buildings had returned to normal, and some cranes still stood not far away. The loud noises from the buildings rang out from time to time, but judging from the reactions of the people around them, they had already gotten used to it.

"Two cups of Saint..." Standing in front of a shop, Duanmu Mo was about to say something when Yu Zhi tugged at his sleeve, looked at him seriously, and her eyes held a hint of reproach.

With a helpless shrug, Duanmu Mo changed his mind and said, "Two cups of hot coffee, one with extra sugar."

"okay."

The counter was located at the entrance of the shop, while the interior served as the kitchen, making it impossible to dine inside. Therefore, Duanmu Mo and Yu Zhi could only wait outside while the staff prepared the food.

He turned to look at Yuzhi. Because the trench coat was much too big, her hands were also wrapped in the sleeves, and her shoulders were hunched, as if she felt the cold wind blowing.

Is there anywhere you'd like to go?

Duanmu Mo silently changed his position, standing in the windward spot to shield her from the cold wind, and casually asked.

"..."

Yu Zhi raised her head, glanced at Duanmu Mo's body, and spoke softly:

"No......"

"No?" Duanmu Mo looked at Yu Zhi with a puzzled expression. "There must be something, right? Like going to the library to read books?"

Yuzhi thought for a moment and nodded gently: "This is also acceptable."

"Could it mean something else?"

—As long as I can be with Mr. Duanmu...

Yu Zhi didn't answer, but just breathed hot air and covered her face with Duanmu Mo's sleeve.

"Guests, your coffee, this one is sweet."

Okay, thank you.

Duanmu Mo handed the sweet cup to Yu Zhi, and the two left the place to continue strolling around.

"Speaking of which, Yuzhi, is there anything you particularly like? I've known you for so long, and I haven't discovered any special hobbies you have."

"that......"

Still haven't found something you want to do?

Duanmu Mo asked, "Yu Zhi seems to have studied too many different things. She has studied music and cooked, but she can hardly say what she likes."

"I'm not quite sure either..." Yu Zhi held her coffee and smiled wryly, turning to look at her future self, as if seeking help: "Cang Yi, what do you like?"

There's nothing there.

Cangyi's body did not appear; only her voice rang in Yuzhi's mind.

"oh......"

Seeing that Yu Zhi still couldn't figure it out, Duanmu Mo took a sip of coffee and sighed, "I really don't know what you'll be like in the future, Yu Zhi... Although you can take Cang Yi as a reference for your appearance, I don't know what kind of job you'll choose."

Watching Duanmu Mo nag like an ordinary parent, Yu Zhi felt no resentment; instead, she felt a sense of warmth and smiled.

"For me, it's enough to just stay at home and look after everyone I care about. I wish I could have a job like that."

"That's not my area of ​​expertise. Maybe there are some jobs that I can do from home. Besides that, is there anything else I'd like to do, like painting or something?"

Seeing that Duanmu Mo wanted to continue the conversation on this topic, Yu Zhi followed suit and continued speaking:

"Hmm..."

As she spoke, Yu Zhi laughed shyly.

But soon, she stopped laughing.

Going out to buy groceries every day and cooking at home, just watching everyone's daily routine is enough to make me happy. Besides a nanny, there's only one other person who does this kind of thing.

— Just thinking about that name makes Yuzhi feel extremely ashamed, and she doesn't even dare to think about it.

But upon closer reflection, Yuzhi realized that she didn't actually dislike this kind of life...

"Ahem—but for now, let's go to the library and look at some books." Seeing Duanmu Mo deep in thought, Yu Zhi, as if choking on her coffee, pointed to the library to distract him.

"Points to note."

Duanmu Mo patted her back and said with concern.

"Ah, um..."

The comforting gesture was completely natural, as if it were part of everyday life. Yu Zhi quieted down, nodded gently, and didn't say anything more.

"Let's go."

After ruffling Yu Zhi's hair, Duanmu Mo led her into the library.

There are still some signs of cleaning in the library, and a sign stands at the entrance:

[The library's internal facilities are currently under maintenance; we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.]

In other words, they didn't want the guests to leave. Yu Zhi was still a little hesitant about whether she would disturb the staff inside, so Duanmu Mo pulled her inside.

Duanmu Mo thought there would only be some noise from tools, but when he entered the library, he found that the messiness of the library was beyond his imagination—a large number of books were neatly piled on the ground, like towers.

Looking around, there were hardly any bookshelves or anything like that; only a few librarians were chatting listlessly at the front desk.

Upon seeing Duanmu Mo and Yu Zhi arrive, one of the librarians perked up and said:

"Welcome to Fengchuan City Library. The interior is still under construction. Please feel free to read if you wish, just don't step on the books."

As he spoke, the man looked at the coffees in their hands: "Ah, drinks without lids are not allowed to be brought in either."

"Feel sorry."

There was a trash can just a few steps from the door. Duanmu Mo and Yu Zhi quickly finished their coffee, threw away their cups, and came back. This time, no one stopped them.

"It seems this library was only recently built."

Duanmu Mo looked around and said.

As for why the library opened so quickly, it's estimated that the higher-ups in Fengchuan City wanted to capitalize on the city's thriving atmosphere for publicity. It wouldn't look good if the library and a host of other facilities were just left closed, so they instructed them to open it so hastily.

Regardless, this is a good thing for Fengchuan City, and Duanmu Mo won't care about so many things.

"It seems so, but there are still seats available." Yuzhi glanced around, walked around the tower formed by the books, and nodded.

"Since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well pick up some books to read."

Duanmu Mo picked up a book at random; it was a magazine about cars.

I glanced at the book below; it was a children's book. These bookstalls, besides looking neat, were all sorted out in a jumble. I guess these books need to be tallied later, so it doesn't matter if they're just sitting there randomly. They'll be put back on the bookshelf eventually anyway.

"Come, sit down."

The chairs were moved aside, and Duanmu Mo and Yu Zhi, who was holding a book, sat side by side.

Chapter 398: Body Shape

After her recent daydream, Yu Zhi naturally didn't immerse herself in the book so quickly. She flipped through it absentmindedly, her gaze occasionally drifting to the magazine in Duanmu Mo's hand.

The page he was currently on was related to motorcycles, but in addition, there were some tall car models that Yu Zhi couldn't ignore.

Feeling that Duanmu Mo was looking at the contents of the document with great interest, Yu Zhi couldn't help but let her mind wander.

—Mr. Duanmu seems to only read these books because he likes motorcycles, not because he's interested in the models in them...

—But if Mr. Duanmu doesn't like these, what would he like...? Something ordinary? Does Mr. Duanmu perhaps like our type?!

—No, if Mr. Duanmu had that kind of hobby, wouldn't he be pursuing Senior Xia Yan? But judging from their daily banter, there's not much of an intimate atmosphere between them... So, does he prefer someone with a better figure?

After this thought came to mind, Yuzhi felt her heart beat faster, and an indescribable heat rose from within her.

Girls will inevitably make some small comparisons when they get together. Among the five magical girls in the family, Kamiya has the best figure.

It's unclear how Cangyuan grew up. According to Duanmu Mo, she started living on her own at the age of six and sealed herself away for thousands of years when she was sixteen. Her figure was only ranked second, slightly inferior to Shenwu Yin's.

After quietly comparing herself to others for a while, Yu Zhi concluded that she was at a normal level for her age group.

Shen Wuling is chronically weak, so even though she and Yuzhi are the same age, there is still a certain gap between them.

As for Xia Yan...

—Speaking of which, Cangyi seems to have a pretty good figure?

Yu Zhi suddenly thought of Cang Yi and compared him with Shen Wuyin. She found that Cang Yi was not inferior to her at all, and even better.

Will I be like this in the future? Over the course of this year?

A girl's developmental period is from ten to eighteen years old, Yu Zhi quietly placed her hand on her heart, thinking shyly to herself.

"..."

The Cangyi in the bracelet could certainly sense what Yuzhi was thinking, but she was too lazy to express her opinion and simply pretended to be asleep.

"What books do you like?"

Duanmu Mo suddenly turned his head and looked at her, while turning the book to the side so that Yu Zhi could read the motorcycle magazine more easily.

"Ah—no, nothing... I was just spacing out." Yu Zhi snapped out of her reverie, a little flustered. Looking at the content above, she noticed that Duanmu Mo had already flipped to another page, which displayed a complex engine structure.

—It seems Mr. Duanmu only likes motorcycles...

Yu Zhi let out a breath, unsure whether to feel fortunate or regretful.

"Is that so?" Duanmu Mo nodded, put the book back, and continued reading attentively.

Yuzhi shook her head to clear her mind of the jumbled thoughts and looked down at her book.

. . . . . .

Time passed quickly, and as dusk fell, the two left the library, with Duanmu Mo accompanying her to the hotel.

The only completed hotel in Fengchuan City was not hard to find, and Yuzhi breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she entered the hotel because of the heating.

"Then I'll leave you here, Yuzhi."
