A Young Woman's Heart

It felt like my own toy had been taken to an exhibition.

Many boys clapped and swayed to the rhythm, and some even leaned close to the stage to look up.

Hua Yinyin not only didn't feel shy, but also deliberately walked up to the boys and made a few rather seductive gestures.

On the contrary, it made those boys who thought they were very bold blush with embarrassment and lower their heads, not daring to look any further.

When the song ended, Hua Yinyin picked up the Hanfu that had been thrown on the stage, bowed, and left the stage.

When she came out of the backstage dressing room again, she had changed back into ordinary clothes.

"Hey, Yao Yao!" She waved at Mo Xueyao, holding up a paper bag of clothes. "Aren't you going to play somewhere else?"

"No, it's so comfortable sitting here." Mo Xueyao drooped her eyelids but couldn't help muttering, "Aren't you ashamed to wear such revealing clothes?"

"What's wrong with that? It's the beauty of the female body, it's a kind of art."

"whispering sound."

"Hehehe, Yaoyao, are you jealous?"

"Why would I be jealous of you?" Mo Xueyao rolled her eyes. "I thought you only dressed like that at home, but I didn't expect you to dare to dress like that outside."

"Little Yaoyao, the way you're talking makes you sound like one of those old fogies sitting in the audience." Hua Yinyin winked playfully. "That's not good~ You're still a girl, you can't turn into an old lady."

"Alas……"

"Let's go, let's go! The weather's so nice, let's go have some fun!"

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to watch the stall?"

"It's okay, I don't need to watch it today." Hua Yinyin stretched lazily, grabbed Mo Xueyao's wrist, and forcibly dragged her off the chair. "Come on—stop being stubborn, I'll treat you to lunch if necessary~"

"Outside?"

“Yes, you can actually enter and exit the school, but you have to register.” Hua Yinyin pulled Mo Xueyao to her side and linked her arm with hers. “You haven’t seen the ‘shops’ opened by other classes yet, have you?”

"There's nothing much to see here. It feels like a teahouse, a coffee shop, or a kindergarten-level playhouse."

"Well, there are some interesting ones too, like... a haunted house and a maze. Oh, and Class 3 of Senior Three runs a shooting range. Yao Yao, do you want to try it out?"

"Huh, a shooting range? It must be a toy."

"Of course, but it's more fun than popping balloons, and there are rewards for high scores."

"Hmm... I'm a little bit interested."

"Just a little bit~ Could it be that Xiao Yaoyao is more interested in me~?" Hua Yinyin stared at Mo Xueyao, grinning mischievously as she grabbed her hand and placed it on her chest. "Then, want to touch it?"

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing..." Mo Xueyao hurriedly pulled her hand back, "It's not like I don't have one myself."

"Well, compared to mine, Xiaoyaoyao's is practically nothing, right?"

Fortunately, Mo Xueyao was once a boy and didn't feel anything about this kind of teasing. If she were a normal girl, she probably would have been a little upset.

Chapter 206 Different Classes, Different Shops

"Ah, then Xiao Ji, the stall is yours!" Mo Xueyao hurriedly turned around and shouted.

"Oh," Duanmu Ji replied indifferently, opening the repaired umbrella as if checking for any remaining imperfections.

From the first floor to the fifth floor, each classroom is decorated to resemble a different shop.

The most bizarrely designed are probably haunted houses or mazes, but they can also be considered special amusement parks, since there is an entrance fee.

Compared to many other shops, Class Two's shop is quite rudimentary.

To put it bluntly, the random dating lobby is just a bunch of cardboard boxes...

"How about we try the maze first?" Hua Yinyin asked, turning her head.

“Either is fine.” Mo Xueyao had no objection to this. To be honest, she was quite curious: the classroom was so small, what difference would it make if it were turned into a maze?

They must have walked out in just a few moments, right?

Even using brute force wouldn't seem cumbersome.

Tickets cost three yuan each, and only three couples are allowed to enter through different entrances at a time.

However, there weren't many people coming to play, probably because at this time, most people went down to watch the performance on stage.

So now Mo Xueyao and Hua Yinyin have entered the maze.

"Which way?" Mo Xueyao asked casually, looking at the three entrances.

Above the entrance hangs a somewhat mysterious sign that reads "Past," "Present," and "Future."

“Of course, it’s ‘now’!” Hua Yinyin grabbed Mo Xueyao’s wrist and walked towards the entrance in the middle without hesitation.

The maze doesn't go straight to the top. Perhaps to save materials or for easier installation, it's only two meters high. But for Mo Xueyao, even if she looks up, she still can't see any other paths on the side.

While using cardboard as a divider may not look very high-quality, it does save a lot of space.

A little light shone through the window as Mo Xueyao and Hua Yinyin walked forward along the maze path.

But after walking around and around, the two realized that they couldn't get out at all.

It was as if this maze existed in another space, with complex and ever-changing paths.

"That's strange, the classroom isn't that big, is it?" Mo Xueyao scratched her head, feeling that something was not quite right.

“The road is changing.” Hua Yinyin’s sense of spatial awareness seemed better than Mo Xueyao’s. “Someone is using mechanisms to change the road. It’s more interesting than I imagined.”

"Then can you find a way out...?"

"Let me think." Hua Yinyin held Mo Xueyao's arm and looked around, seemingly remembering some sign, and then successfully... returned the way she came.

"Hey, I said go out, not turn back," Mo Xueyao muttered helplessly.

"I suspect there's no way out at all." Hua Yinyin smiled and looked at the older student. "Isn't that right?"

"Smart~" The older girl smiled slightly, "Different doors have different ways of exiting. With this door 'now,' you can only return the way you came, because it's 'now'!"

"Ugh, what a boring maze." Mo Xueyao felt like she'd been ripped off for three yuan.

Although the money was paid in silver, I still felt a little heartache.

"Alright, alright, isn't this quite fun? Let's go play somewhere else!" Hua Yinyin then dragged Mo Xueyao to other classrooms.

I looked at each classroom, but didn't go into them all.

Only those who find something interesting will go in to take a look.

Among them, the coffee shop that Mo Xueyao initially thought was the most boring turned out to be surprisingly interesting.

Because it's a 'maid café', the girls inside all wear maid outfits to greet customers.

Everyone who walks in greets the host with a shout of "Welcome home!"

To be honest, I feel a little ashamed.

On the contrary, the 'maids' seemed to be used to it.

Furthermore, Mo Xueyao noticed that there were also two unlucky boys who had been chosen among them.

So, is the practice of men wearing women's clothing really one of the longest-standing cultural traditions in China?

The coffee here is made with instant coffee, and it's quite cheap...

Well, it's not cheap anymore. At least in this day and age, a packet of instant coffee still costs one or two yuan.

If you're buying soy milk, you can get two bags for just one yuan.

Basically, most of the people who come to maid cafes are guys, who want to enjoy the feeling of being pampered by girls.

"I think even if I had a maid, I couldn't stand it..." Mo Xueyao muttered, holding a freshly brewed hot coffee.

"why?"

"Ugh... I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's just so cheesy and awkward."

"Heh, you'll get used to it. I've heard that many masters sleep with their maids." Hua Yinyin chuckled mischievously and lowered her voice. "Oh, by the way, would Xiao Yaoyao like to try on a maid outfit?"

"Absolutely no interest."

"Would you like to see me wear it?"

“Absolutely not.” Mo Xueyao hesitated and paused for a moment.

"Huh, really not?" Hua Yinyin looked disappointed. "I was thinking of buying one of those short-skirted maid outfits..."

"Hey, it's no use talking to me like that." She paused, looked out the window, and said nonchalantly, "I'm not a boy."

"It's okay, girls can be interested in pretty girls too!" Hua Yinyin slapped Mo Xueyao's face in her hands. "Stand tall like a flower in the cold wind, little Yaoyao!"

"You're so arrogant!" Mo Xueyao blushed and tapped her forehead softly. "Is that something a girl can do?"

"Hey~ Little Yaoyao hasn't had one?" Hua Yinyin pointed to her chest, "Here."

"what?"

"Huh—I've never done that before? Hmm...maybe it's because I was too small?"

"What exactly do you mean by 'small'..." Mo Xueyao instinctively felt that she was referring to an even smaller place.

"Well~ think about it yourself. It's more interesting when things aren't fully explained~ That's what you call being coy and veiled!"

"Stop it." She rolled her eyes and downed her coffee in one gulp. "Alright, alright, next one!"

"Okay, let's go to the haunted house."

"Is it fun? It's a haunted house that's only the size of a classroom."

How will you know if you don't try?

The haunted house ticket is the most expensive, costing five yuan.

Not many people went inside, and the curtains were all tightly drawn, giving off an inexplicable chill.

Mo Xueyao, who wasn't afraid at all, became a little nervous as she was about to enter.
