NOVEL NEXT 38: Filled with Loli Energy
Ye Lan was on her way home.
Originally, Bai Yu wanted to go back with her, but then Bai Tu came.
Bai Yu knew her sister had a lot to say to her, so she gave up on this plan.
Although it was a bit disappointing, she could only wait until next time to visit Ye Lan’s home.
On the other side.
Ye Xing arrived home a step earlier than Ye Lan. As soon as she entered, she began to study the old puppet she had obtained from the puppeteer.
“Hmm… how should I repair it?”
Besides being socially awkward, Ye Xing was also clumsy with her hands.
She was completely incapable when it came to handicrafts, let alone repairing a marionette.
“Mm…”
Ye Xing scratched her head in frustration, still without any clue.
So she decided to seek help from others!
And the only person she knew was her neighbor, Mo Tu.
“I’ll go ask…”
Next door.
Mo Tu, who had just returned and was lying down listening to music, suddenly heard a knock on the door. He quickly sat up and walked to the door.
As soon as Mo Tu opened the door, he saw a petite silver-haired figure standing in front, looking a bit nervous from her expression.
“Oh?”
Looking at this cute little neighbor, a rare confusion appeared in his mind.
What did she come to him for?
Before asking this question, Mo Tu first raised a smile.
“Ye Xing, do you need something from me?”
“Well, I have something I’d like your help with…”
“What is it? I can try.”
Hearing this, Ye Xing took out the two pieces of the puppet she had been hiding behind her back and presented them to Mo Tu.
“It’s this. Do you know how to repair puppets? A friend’s puppet was damaged by someone, and she’s very sad, so I want to fix this puppet to make her happy.”
Mo Tu focused his gaze on the two pieces of the puppet in Ye Xing’s hands, and his eyes immediately darkened.
Even he was about to lose his composure at this point, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
“This thing, where did you… get it from?”
Ye Xing looked at him with some confusion and said, “It belongs to a friend of mine. Is there something strange about it?”
Mo Tu rubbed his temple with one hand, trying his best to calm down.
“It’s nothing, just a bit surprised that in this era, your friend’s taste is so old-fashioned.”
“Mm-hmm, I think so too.”
Mo Tu still maintained his smile, his eyes fixed on the two pieces of the puppet in Ye Xing’s hands.
“What were you originally planning to do?”
“I was originally planning to glue it together with strong adhesive…”
“…”
Mo Tu quickly covered his mouth with his hand, trying his best to hide the smile he was about to burst into.
Ye Xing didn’t notice and looked a bit embarrassed.
“But then I thought that might not be reliable, so I came to ask you.”
Mo Tu coughed a few times as if to cover up and said, “Ahem, using glue to stick it together is indeed a bit absurd. It can’t be fixed that way.”
Seeing Mo Tu’s confident expression, Ye Xing felt hopeful, her eyes full of expectation.
“Can you fix it then?”
“No, in this land, only you can fix this puppet. No one else can.”
“Eh? But I don’t know how to fix it… I’m very clumsy with my hands. If I just follow online tutorials, it will definitely be a mess.”
Ye Xing lowered her head dejectedly, not noticing the deeper meaning in Mo Tu’s words.
Mo Tu shook his head.
“If you take it seriously, you will definitely be able to fix it. You need to believe in yourself.”
Encouraged by Mo Tu, Ye Xing gained some confidence.
“Mm… I’ll try then.”
“However…” Mo Tu’s gaze became somewhat serious, even his smile faded a bit.
“Ye Xing, can you bear the responsibility after fixing it?”
“Mm?” Ye Xing hesitated for a moment and timidly said, “Um… can you not speak in riddles? Can you explain more clearly?”
Mo Tu smiled slightly.
“Then I’ll be a bit more direct. Let me make an assumption. If, and I’m saying if, after you fix this puppet, it might recreate an incredibly terrifying disaster. Would you still want to fix it?”
“If…?”
Ye Xing lowered her head in thought.
She had already promised the puppeteer that she would fix the puppet.
If fixing the puppet would cause a disaster, could she really bear that responsibility?
Mo Tu quietly stared at the pondering Ye Xing, not interrupting her.
“I think… I won’t let the disaster happen.”
“Oh?”
The puppeteer’s expectant gaze and sad expression while holding the broken puppet appeared in Ye Xing’s mind, and she made up her mind.
“If it really happens… I will do my best to stop it.”
“No, you must stop it.”
“Mm… then I definitely will.”
Mo Tu nodded with satisfaction and smiled slightly, “Then go do it. You might encounter some difficulties, but I believe you can definitely do it.”
“Thank you for your encouragement!”
Although she still didn’t understand Mo Tu’s meaning, Ye Xing’s confidence had increased a lot.
She hugged the two pieces of the puppet and returned to her room, leaving Mo Tu with a confident back view.
Mo Tu leaned against the doorframe and suddenly sighed.
“If it’s not handled well, it’s not as simple as just increasing the workload. Indeed, she’s a difficult little one to serve.”
……
Ye Xing returned to her room, already prepared to stay up all night researching.
Coincidentally, at this time, Ye Lan also returned.
“I’m back~”
“Welcome back~”
Seeing the adorable Ye Xing, Ye Lan’s mood also improved greatly.
Let me explain one point here.
Ye Xing and Ye Lan dress differently.
Ye Lan now has a certain social circle, and her principles and bottom lines have certain restrictions. At least in terms of dressing, she doesn’t dare to be too exaggerated, only daring to wear neutral styles.
But Ye Xing is different.
Ye Xing is like a pet that Ye Lan keeps at home. Most of the time, she only needs to slack off at home and doesn’t need to deal with too many people outside.
Moreover, since she likes cute lolis, her dressing style definitely leans towards cuteness.
For example, cute hairstyles, little dresses, and white stockings.
Ye Lan feels a bit shy inside and doesn’t dare to dress up like that to meet people.
Ye Xing, on the other hand, satisfies her own need for “cuteness”.
She’s like a dedicated clothes hanger.
Ye Lan personally dresses Ye Xing in these cute outfits every day, making her super adorable, which gives her infinite satisfaction.
Seeing a silver-haired loli wearing a little dress and thin white stockings every day makes her feel very good, like a nuclear power charging station.
Although they are the same person after all.
Although Ye Xing does meet some people, it’s so rare that it can be ignored.
“Ehehe~ Finally home, let’s take a bath together first.”
Bathing is the most comfortable thing.
Two petite bodies squeezed into the large bathtub can even “massage” each other, relieving the fatigue accumulated throughout the day and making both body and mind comfortable. It’s indescribably refreshing.
So bath time is the moment Ye Xing and Ye Lan look forward to the most every day!
A while later.
Two steaming lolis walked out of the bathroom and started blow-drying each other’s hair.
“Mm… we must take good care of our hair. If there’s any problem, I’ll definitely be heartbroken.”
Ye Xing and Ye Lan really like their body.
Since they’ve become lolis, they have to take good care of themselves.
This not only affects their mood but also the comfort of hugging while sleeping, both very important!
“That should be about enough.”
After blow-drying their hair to a satisfactory state, the two began to take action.
Ye Lan sat in front of the computer, Ye Xing lay on the bed.
One searched for information on the computer, the other on the phone. Working together like this would be more efficient, no problem at all.
“Mm… how to repair such a cut? Can only remake it? Wonder if current technology has any wood connecting techniques…”
Ye Xing felt that this marionette must have some important meaning to the puppeteer, otherwise she wouldn’t have been so sad and dejected after it broke.
She probably wouldn’t accept making an identical one to replace the original puppet, so it could only be thoroughly repaired based on the original.
But how easy is that for Ye Xing and Ye Lan?
After searching through a pile of information, Ye Xing and Ye Lan temporarily gave up.
“It’s so late now, let’s go to sleep first.”
Ye Lan crawled onto the bed like a little kitten, then hugged the fragrant and soft Ye Xing, burying her head in the silver hair and taking a deep breath.
“Mm~ Filled with loli energy.”
