Cangyuan wasn't good at lying. She glanced guiltily at Yuzhi, then her gaze swept over Duanmu Mo before finally turning her head back to look at the small fish in the fish tank in front of her.

She didn't know that it was Duanmu Mo.

"Since we don't have to go to school now, do you want to sleep a little longer?"

Duanmu Mo sat down next to Yu Zhi, patted her head, and asked.

"No......"

Even though Yu Zhi could barely speak, she still insisted on sitting there, which made Duanmu Mo feel guilty.

—If there's a next time, come back sooner...

Duanmu Mo thought to himself, took the rice bowl from Shen Wuyin's hand, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it, and said, "Here, let me feed you."

"Oh, I really can't accept this..."

Yuzhi blinked, and blushed after realizing what she had just realized.

"It's alright. Consider this your way of thanking me, a mere ordinary person, as magical girls—is that reason acceptable?"

"Hmm..."

Duanmu Mo has given this reason many times, as if saying it makes it permissible for them to do whatever they want.

A wave of languor washed over her, and Yu Zhi, unable to resist the urge of her body that had been battling all night, finally closed her mouth and opened it.

"Ugh, gulp..."

Looking at Yu Zhi's white teeth and delicate tongue, and the way she swallowed each time she ate, Duanmu Mo fed her even more carefully.

Watching Duanmu Mo feed Yu Zhi, Shen Wuyin's eyes flashed with envy.

—Should we find an opportunity to have Mr. Duanmu do this for me next time?

This is indeed a bit shameful, but since we've already taken that step, it's not like we can't do it... right?

A blush flashed across her face, and feeling sorry for Yuzhi, Shenwuyin turned her head away and silently went about her business.

After feeding Yu Zhi, Duanmu Mo declined Shen Wuyin's help and washed the bowl for Yu Zhi himself, setting it aside.

Looking at Yu Zhi lying on the sofa with her eyes half-closed, Duanmu Mo had no choice but to pick her up.

"Hmm? Mr. Duanmu?"

"Go back to your room and sleep for a while. I'll teach you again at lunchtime."

"But Cangyi said..."

"That was what Cangyi said before. Now I'm saying it. Whose opinion do you listen to?"

"Hmm..."

Yu Zhi hesitated for a moment before Duanmu Mo carried her to the bed and covered her with a blanket.

In a daze, Cangyi's figure appeared by the bedside and stood with Duanmu Mo: "If you're really tired, go to sleep. It's not good to always be tense. You need to relax occasionally."

"All right......"

Seeing that even Cangyi had agreed, Yuzhi nodded and closed her eyes.

But the image of the two of them standing side by side by the window lingered in her memory for a while as she fell asleep.

—There's something off about this angle; it gives off a feeling of parents urging their child to go to sleep...

Vague thoughts flashed through her mind, and Yuzhi drifted back to sleep.

Chapter 428: Clothing

Seeing that Yu Zhi had finally closed her eyes and fallen asleep, Duanmu Mo breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Cang Yi's side—although he couldn't see Cang Yi, Yu Zhi's gaze had been directed in that direction just now.

Then he turned and left.

Pushing open the door, Duanmu Mo was about to go downstairs to the living room to watch the news when he saw Shen Wuyin on the rooftop, tidying up her clothes while muttering a complaint:

"Clothes are hard to dry."

"What's wrong?" Duanmu Mo asked casually as he approached her.

"Ah, Duanmu Mo, naturally accepted the fact that he had appeared in her life."

Look, Duanmu Mo is holding it.

A damp feeling came from his clothes. Duanmu Mo touched them, not particularly surprised.

"This happens every year."

"Although snowball fights are fun, there are also times when they're annoying."

Shen Wuyin shook her head helplessly, separated the wet and dry clothes, and went into a room with Duanmu Mo.

The room contained several wardrobes, and was surrounded by dressing tables, cosmetics, and other items.

After all, there are several people in the family, so they have a lot of clothes and they just have to find a place to put them.

Over time, this place became the girls' exclusive storage room—that is to say, but it was cleaner and more well-ventilated than a regular storage room.

At first, only the sisters, Kamiya and Rin, moved in. She then decorated the place for a while, and it seems that the clothes rack near the window was also installed by her at the beginning.

It seems that she was prepared for each season when she moved in.

"Has Yin done these things before?" Duanmu Mo asked as he helped Shen Wuyin hang up her clothes, watching her practiced movements.

"Oh?" Shen Wuyin paused, looking at Duanmu Mo with a smile: "Mr. Duanmu, you don't still think I'm the kind of pampered young lady who can't do housework, do you?"

"No, not at all." Duanmu Mo shook his head: "I'm just quite curious. With the capabilities of the Shenwu Group, they should be making thorough preparations for you in every way, hoping you won't even think about living a normal life and will stay in magical girl mode every day, right?"

"That was my parents' wish."

Shen Wuyin thought of her parents, memories flooding back. She exhaled, grasped Duanmu Mo's hand, and smiled.

"As for me, I am quite powerful as a magical girl, and I also have the ability to fly, so I often need to fly to other places to help. Therefore, they can't find me a nanny or anything like that, and I take care of all my daily life myself."

"Isn't it troublesome?" Feeling the warmth of Shen Wuyin's palm, Duanmu Mo did not pull away, but simply used his other hand to steadily hang the clothes.

She said with a smile, "I'm used to it now, and it's quite satisfying to see the messy room gradually tidied up."

"Can you really feel a sense of accomplishment like chatting with a girl in a skirt?"

"Hmm~ Of course, the most important thing is..." Shen Wuyin began, a blush rising on her face: "—This place feels like home, Mr. Duanmu, you understand, right?"

"...This is your home, whenever you want."

"Ok!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wuyin's smile became even brighter, as if a warm spring breeze was blowing in this cold winter.

. . . . . .

"The pronunciation is correct."

After hanging up the clothes, Duanmu Mo glanced at her wardrobe and casually asked, "How about I buy you a few winter clothes while I'm at it?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wuyin looked at her clothes and asked, "Is it necessary? I brought clothes with me, didn't I?"

When Shenwuyin came from Fengchuan City, the court's verdict was to recover the property from her parents, but they still left her a portion as aid money and didn't bother with her daily necessities such as clothes.

"I think it's necessary. I think you girls probably have this need. Besides, I've made quite a bit of money recently because of this commission, so don't worry about me."

"Really... Mr. Duanmu, you must save your money. You can't have a bad habit of spending money recklessly."

Shen Wuyin shook her head helplessly, but still sensed something: "But... what does 'by the way' mean? Does Mr. Duanmu also want to buy some clothes?"

"Forehead......"

Duanmu Mo was silent for a moment before nodding: "I guess so."

"Calculate?"

"I just bought you all some clothes on a whim, so just think of it as me having money to burn."

"Sigh..." Duanmu Mo's kind offer: "Alright, but when are we going to buy it? I'll have to keep an eye on things."

"Actually, we could do it now... but let's do it a little later, the afternoon is fine too."

If he went now, Duanmu Mo was worried that the waiter might not have finished get off work yet, and it would be bad if she said something.

How will I explain this then? That I stayed up all night and went shopping with Cangyi?

After all, while the wind chime card can modify information on the internet at will, it cannot tamper with memories.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Mo thought of Cangyuan.

Although she promised herself to keep it a secret, she should still avoid showing anything special in front of her.

After thinking for a moment and finishing tidying up the clothes with Shen Wuyin, Duanmu Mo pretended to yawn, ruffled her hair, and said:

"Hmm... I suddenly remembered I have something to do at the office, so I'll go out first and catch up on some sleep. You can save lunch for me."

"Another commission?" Shen Wuyin frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"It's not a big deal, it will be taken care of soon."

He patted her head, then turned and left.

Not long after, the sound of an engine came from outside and gradually faded away.

. . . . . .

Back at the office, Duanmu Mo took off his trench coat and lay comfortably on the bed.

"call......"

Duanmu Mo let out a breath, recalling this long-lost feeling of comfort.

...Although in the end I'll still end up lying down there...

Thinking about this gave Duanmu Mo a headache, so he simply put the matter out of his mind.

He had intended to use this time to search the entire city for traces of the zombie monster, but there was no need for that. After all, although Duanmu Mo's current goal was to seize the power of that scale monster, he had other plans that were equally important.

That is to watch it fight with Leviathan, and in the process, if necessary, Duanmu Mo will not kill the zombie monster, and may even take the initiative to help it.

...After all, it's a defection, and Duanmu Moke is quite adept at it.
