Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me

Listening to Bai Luo, Yakumo Ran became even more bewildered, but as she sniffed and smelled the lingering fragrance in the air, she immediately understood.

"Young Master Bai, did you feed me fried tofu while I was asleep?"

Yakumo Ran's expression was sorrowful.

She wasn't sad because she was fed, but because she didn't get to taste the fried tofu while awake.

Having spent so much time with her, Bai Luo naturally understood Yakumo Ran's thoughts. He took out the remaining two boxes of fried tofu.

"Don't be sad, I only fed you one box. I made a total of three boxes for you."

Seeing the two boxes of fried tofu still steaming on the table, Yakumo Ran's eyes lit up.

"Open your mouth, ah~"

Bai Luo picked up a piece of fried tofu and brought it to her lips.

Yakumo Ran's cheeks flushed slightly, her nine tails swayed twice, and she obediently opened her lips.

"Ran~ I'm back!"

Just then, the gap opened, and Yakumo Yukari stepped out from it, witnessing the intimate actions of the two at that moment.

"Ran, you're actually sneaking food behind my back!"

Yakumo Yukari's sudden shout startled Yakumo Ran, causing her body to tremble. She bit down, even taking Bai Luo's finger into her mouth.

"Tsk, Ran, do you like sucking on fingers so much? You have to suck on mine every time."

Bai Luo clicked his tongue and asked playfully.

Yakumo Ran came back to her senses and hurriedly took two steps back.

Seeing the moisture on Bai Luo's finger, her already rosy cheeks turned even redder, and even her earlobes became pink.

Compared to Yakumo Ran, Yakumo Yukari seemed much more brazen. After muttering a complaint, she stepped forward and opened her mouth wide, her meaning quite obvious.

"These are for Ran, you don't get any."

Bai Luo rolled his eyes at her.

"Are you playing such favorites?"

Yakumo Yukari's eyes widened.

"Ran works so hard normally, what's wrong with her eating well? And you just lie in bed peeking all day, you don't consume any energy."

Bai Luo retorted without reservation.

Three big question marks popped up above Yakumo Yukari's head. How did this kid's mouth get so sharp?

"I plan to go play outside, do you want to come along?"

Bai Luo suddenly asked.

"Huh? Me?"

Yakumo Yukari pointed to herself. She thought Bai Luo was asking Yakumo Ran to go.

"Otherwise? Ran still has to go repair the great barrier later, only you are this free."

Bai Luo's words directly shattered the sentiment that Yakumo Yukari had just managed to feel. Her back teeth ground together, eventually turning into a helpless sigh.

"Let's go, let's go."

Yakumo Yukari waved her hand weakly, walking into the gap first, with Bai Luo following closely behind.

The two passed through the gap and arrived outside.

"Where do you want to go?"

"I don't know."

"You don't know?"

Yakumo Yukari's mouth couldn't stop twitching. "You don't know and yet you said you wanted to go out and play?"

"Why not? We'll just wander around casually. If we see something fun, we'll go check it out."

Bai Luo stroked his chin.

For boys, the most important thing about going out to play isn't what they play, but the act of going out itself.

Hearing this reason, Yakumo Yukari was too lazy to complain and followed Bai Luo as he walked forward.

They were now in a bustling market, with people coming and going, very lively.

The two walked and stopped, sometimes buying snacks, sometimes chatting, and when they saw interesting things, they would go up to watch, feeling quite leisurely and comfortable.

Unconsciously, time quietly flowed by.

The sun set in the west, and night fell.

"Zi Ma."

"What's up?"

Yakumo Yukari asked doubtfully.

Bai Luo stopped, turned his head, and smiled, "Do you feel like this is a date?"

Chapter 79: Zi Ma's Version of Corny Pick-up Lines.

"A date?"

Hearing this word, Yakumo Yukari was taken aback, then the corners of her lips curved slightly upward.

"I feel the same way, but this is my first date, so Xiao Bai Luo, you're getting a great deal."

"Huh~ Shouldn't Zi Ma be the one getting the great deal?"

"Hehe..."

Yakumo Yukari couldn't help but laugh and let out a light snort.

"So what if I want to get a great deal from you? Who told Xiao Bai Luo you're so cute?"

After speaking, she raised her eyes and looked at the sky.

"It's getting dark. What should we do next? Go shopping again? Or go straight back?"

"Go back? We just came out not long ago."

Bai Luo rolled his eyes at her. "Besides, the real nightlife hasn't even started yet!"

Yakumo Yukari blinked her eyes. "Then we continue shopping?"

"Of course."

Bai Luo nodded.

So, the two continued to wander around the city. Unconsciously, the sky had completely darkened.

At night, streetlights came on, and various entertainment facilities opened.

As the two walked down the street, Bai Luo seemed to see something and pulled Yakumo Yukari into a commercial building.

This building had ten floors, with different types of shops on each floor.

The first floor had jewelry counters, the second floor had clothing and accessory stores, the third and fourth floors were leisure places like cafes and tea houses, and above that were dining areas, and even a cinema.

Bai Luo took Yakumo Yukari straight to the elevator and followed the signs all the way to the eighth floor. He remembered that commercial buildings like this usually had arcades.

Sure enough, after some searching, Bai Luo finally found his target. He excitedly pulled Yakumo Yukari and ran inside.

The two arrived at a token exchange counter.

Just like in Bai Luo's memory—

1 yuan for 1 game token.

And for larger integer amounts like 100, 200, 500, and 1000 tokens, there were more discounts.

Bai Luo wasn't short on money, so he immediately chose one thousand game tokens. Just as he was about to take out the pocket money Yun Jiuling gave him, the sound of game tokens dropping had already begun.

Bai Luo looked up and found that Yakumo Yukari had already paid, her golden eyes full of confusion.

"How do you have money from the outside world? Don't tell me you usually come here to play arcade games?"

"Play what, you big dummy? I occasionally need to come outside, so naturally, I'll have some money ready to use."

Yakumo Yukari rolled her eyes at him.

"...Uh, did you get a factory job?"

...

Yakumo Yukari didn't speak, just kept sighing.

"Don't be sad, I still have quite a bit of pocket money. If you're really short on cash in the future, just ask me for it."

Bai Luo patted her shoulder, pretending to comfort her.

After speaking, without waiting for Yakumo Yukari to respond, he handed her two plastic baskets. One thousand game tokens filled exactly four baskets, making them heavy.

There were all sorts of games here: coin pushers, basketball machines, claw machines... all kinds of arcade machines.

Originally, he thought Yakumo Yukari would be like Kazami Yuuka, just following him and not being interested in these "kids'" games. But unexpectedly, she was playing with even more enthusiasm than he was.

Watching Yakumo Yukari excitedly insert game tokens and operate the controls according to the instructions, Bai Luo found it quite absurd.

"Zi Ma, how do you know how to play these young people's games? Did you secretly come here often before?"

"What are you talking about! What do you mean 'how do I know how to play young people's games'? I am young, okay?"

Yakumo Yukari grumbled discontentedly, quickly pressing the button and successfully winning another doll.

"Besides, I'm a Youkai Sage, how could these things possibly stump me."

After winning the grand prize ten times in a row, Yakumo Yukari proudly puffed out her chest and showily threw the doll into the gap.

"For this kind of game, you just need hands!"

Bai Luo's expression was subtle, but he didn't say anything more and turned to immerse himself in the game.

Although it was different from what he expected.

But overall, Bai Luo had a great time. What's the most important thing about going out to play?

Naturally, it's for both people to have a great time and be happy, not for one person to play while the other just watches.

...

The two played for about two and a half hours, then Bai Luo pulled Yakumo Yukari and left.

"Why are we leaving so soon? I haven't had enough fun yet."

Yakumo Yukari complained.

"Play more? If you keep playing, the boss will cry. You don't know how to hold back a little."

"The boss?"

Hearing this, Yakumo Yukari recalled. There was indeed someone following them from a distance just now, with an expression that seemed like he wanted to say something but couldn't, looking miserable.

She thought he was just a mentally ill person, but she didn't expect him to be the owner of the arcade.

Although Yakumo Yukari didn't care about the attitudes of ordinary people, since her own Xiao Bai Luo said so, then so be it.

Walking out of the commercial building, it was already late, and the two decided to find a place to eat.

After some searching, Bai Luo chose a relatively quiet restaurant.

The restaurant's decor was simple but very clean.

Bai Luo glanced at the menu, and after seeing a familiar dish name, a hint of surprise flashed in his golden eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved upward.

"Zi Ma, go buy two cups of bubble tea across the street. Make them large, with extra ice and extra pearls."

Bai Luo said.

Yakumo Yukari rolled her eyes at him, said nothing, and went out, walking towards the shop across the street.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Yakumo Yukari walked in carrying two cups of bubble tea. She placed one cup in front of Bai Luo, took a sip of her own iced bubble tea, and comfortably narrowed her eyes.
